Guild Wars 2

It’s only a game. Deal with it.
I seriously dont know any game with colorblind settings on/off or is playable without hands.

Games are about skill/experience, some people can be better than others..its not unfair, its how games work…

Ye they screwd up Liadri a little, but even I dont want to try it(8 orbs) anymore with my guardian, because its much easier with a mesmer apparently and a good pc(fpslag) and luck.

Gameindustry has also it limits..I rather see people with cyborg hands/eyes in the future than a device(developed from the gaming industry) which lets people play with their current disabilities. The market for such a device would be probably 2 small anyway.

Electro.4173:

Oh I have no doubt of that. LA is going to be crazy. I hope my system can pull it off, I really want to see it >.>

Prepare for the lag.
Really wonder if its better for people without highend systems and ssd…and if the new graphicsettings can really compensate it for them

Esplen how much have the fps to drop until you complain ? 0?
I have killed Liadri too but it would have been much easier if the fps would be at least 10-20 higher..making it a homeinstance for example would solve it

With my usual graphic setting I have 30-40fps more or less depending on the area.
You will not recognize it much, gw2 feels smooth usually.
In the new area I get under 10 fps regardless where I am, when I set every graphic setting to the lowest possible, I get something between 10-20fps.
Red aoe circles pop up late and are hard to see due to the graphic settings not only because of the background.

When gw2 was released they mentioned something about that players with not highend pcs wont get in trouble…I just see more and more content especially vertical new areas, these areas just let the fps drop very fast…maybe a bit more optimization in the future or what are your experiences?
When I am in the arena I dont really have to know what the zerg under me does….

I dont play any other games currently, thats y I dont really like to buy new hardware just for a mmorpg.

High qualitly=high demand + limited acess = high price if we are talking about items that have a low supply

Its a safe method if u can wait. Sometimes it takes weeks, sometimes months.
The first time you do this it can take some time. But if you do this at each event you get more often your gold back from investions some months ago.

Just 1 example because the possiblity to get it cheap is already over more or less…
Catcher Skins… I was suprised about the supply …its between 20-50…ye it was like 150+ some days/weeks ago.
People like the Wind and Thunderskin(aura effect, how many other items can give this to you, except legendaries?) they will buy it now or in the future.
The supply is so kitten low…

So its flipping “longterm”, shortterm flipping is just so boring. It maybe gives a better profit but I still want to play the game.

I see the problem with 2 many people at one market and undercutting themselves….thats y I chose lowsupplymarkets if you would have enough gold you could control these lowsupplymarkets with a 2digit procentnumber probably.

Title says it all.
Its so annoying that we cant turn it off as guardians.
In cities we have it 100% of the time. Or create an option in the graphic setting so that only we cant see it, while all others still can, so theres no disadvantage when it comes to pvp or something like that. But its still in the bufflist anyway..

I like a few shield skins but can never imagine to buy or craft it with an aegis effect…just 1 example

They would just rush 30 with all their characters. When I want to farm fractals I still do 20+ because of the possibility of a skin, better loot and its still supereasy.

Arenanet has many possibilitys, especially now with the achievment system with rewards they could just create a category for it and after a certain amount of runs(maybe specific to the fractal lvl) they could reward you with a skin.
Or just give a 1hand or 2 handweapontoken instead of the skin in the daily chest….Often players cant even use or dont like the skin at all.

Please reduce the dominating overall rng factor in fractals considering skins.

we get 1) no skins at all 2) with a certain probability skins we dont want/cant use
3) we are luckers

@tien: Welltimed screenshot(effects..)^^ but looks more like a butcher to me. But the overall style fits good together and I like the skincolor. The hat on the other side isn’t my type^^ so I only give u 8.5 waha

2 new pics and one old one. I still dont like the leggings combined with the current chestarmor…but I cant find anything better

Why not give players the possibility to get the skins they actually want with Pristine Fractal Relic as a currency for skins.

Even if its 50 Pristine Fractal Relics per Skin(50dailys…), it would be much better as it is now.

I know players who got their 3rd trident skin or didnt get any skin but already completed the fractal achievment so they have 150+runs?idk ….

Give players a goal what they can achieve instead of the huge rng we still have there.

Btw … higher lvl means just more boss/mobhp in fractals(boring), many glitches are still there(remember the day when they “fixed” the platform where u could jump under the endboss….now you go 3m more to the left side and you can do exactly the same, who was that genious?), people were never intended to get past lvl 50 now its common(agonysystem useless on highlvls)…..fractals are so left beside

I know some day the fractal overhaul should come but it takes so frakking long and I dont see myself ever get to the point to get the swordskin.

[Probably somebody mentioned it already(to buy skins with relics) but cant find any similar threads with the search function, I get almost always no results if I type more than 1 word in it anyway.]

I believe in the moment you transmute something it becomes soulbound. edit: oh yeah white items…
Some certain backpieces are accountbound like the karkaevent backpieces so you can trade them to every character…
However you can rebuy them at the tradingpost , its not lost.

A sidenote…if u plan to upgrade your backpiece(infused) do it before the transmution otherwise the transmuted skin will be replaced again by the old standard skin.

But u cant salvage the white/blue item if it wasnt salvagable before…I tryed that once to get the Karkaslaying sigil which was high in price during the event…but I couldnt salvage it from the lionguarditems even after transmution….I didnt know at that point that there is a cultural vendor in lions arch with the same(at least almost) skins

Was this place ever in GW1 ? idk

I could imagine a really fun dungeon up there, which should be permanently …
Magicians, Knights, so mainly human enemies, traps, labyrinth style dungeondesign…
and its all floating
u could do a lot with these conditions in terms of dungeon atmosphere…

But now the whole place feels so wasted…so much potencial

→learn about combofields there is a good gw2wiki article
→ create a guardian and “tank” the remaining duengons there are left for u(at least try cm,coe and fractals maybe if u like it)

for me arah was one of the best dungeons, I tryed path 4 just some days before the nerfpatch the first time and we did after some(like 10^^) trys

Since the last eventpatch they are really pushing the grindachievments forward…Maybe they test how far they can go before players get mad at them..

Did it yesterday with my guardian. But I had to change my traits, full power,precision…my gear was pretty defensive though.
Weapons were Greatsword and Scepter/focus(good sigil on focus…shield maybe better). I did some runs with hammer and staff before but the dmg was 2 low/slow.

Buff yourself with food and oil(or bandit slayer works probably too), sigils & power signets maybe pick 1 or 2 speed skills.

Anything new abouth the possibility to get lodestones with the laurel vendor?

I guess 3 laurels = 1 lodestone is a good trade…

one laurel is maybe 50s worth, more or less sometimes…

so 3 would mean 1,5g for one lodestone…all other lodestones expect the charged one are already under 1,5g ….

In my eyes its only fair for the people who also want special gear with charged lodestone requirements, it would even things out and would possible drop all expensive lodestones between 1-1,5g

U guys remember the time when dailys gave 5 points each category? It was easy to do 25 a day at least…Im way to bored to do them all day. But that explains the difference of some 1k’s.

I wonder what the limit is with the salvagable achievment points…what is the maximum number of points u can get from it now?

Btw: 5 firecitadel p1 runs are also 5 achievment points if u are dungeon master.

check the ingredients..
e.g white cake …8 copper →2s
saffron 10copper→ 50copper

thats y its expensive, people bought all the craftitems…the actual item should be around 15-20s…t6 dust will never decrease much…so there are always 10s more or less…

Its not worth it!

u know u can disable the filter?

The fooditems would have an impact on the price, if it wouldnt require that additonal window for reassurance of the purchase. U really sure u want to buy that bufffood item U REALLY REALLY SURE??? It costs almost 50copper so we have to ask u again !!!!!

This! …plz fix ….they are bugusing

demand development is useless to follow or compare

All these new threads about farming nerfs and T6 ….wait 1 week …then we talk again

And ye u can do whatever u want with your gold….trying to control bigsupplymarkets in the longterm is foolish anyway

@ A bitz

I almost never encounter those people you are talking about. And if, they are probably wannabe 12yearold hardcore players, who have to post their gear before entering an instance, even if nobody wants to see it…

As a guardian I like to play with newbies(players with less time invested in the game..), I can test how we can manage the situations and I can support them so that we can play like normal even if the party has the potential to completly fail in this dungeon. So its a challenge….In a really good party, its about combos and “how fast can we go” “how many bosses can we tank” ….. Since some months a good party is a boring party for me, but it gives faster gold, so wayne..

I only had to kick one player(with the reason: noob) in fire citadel p3 before the nerfupdate…he was always in combat, died every 3 minutes, used the torch whenever he liked, after telling him 20 times he should get out of combat and telling him he should use the stealth10secs items, he bought some minutes ago

Now try to be a pro in real life. Its the next level.

A game will always be a game aslong there are just the game developer developing it.
If u are really good at a game u will notice the limits of the game, where nothing else can be done to be better and its only depended on luck/lag/whatever in the end.
If I realise this mood while I’m playing other games, I get bored really quickly too.
It even begins that I get this feeling really quick since I started to make maps for some other games and since you know some of the programming stuff, you will understand games even more, how they were made……and this sucks for just playing a game^^, because you just want to feel the fantasy style setting and not “nice particle work there” " textures are bad""triggers are buggy" ….

I really hope the gameindustry can change this in the next decades…such tools like ‘oculus rift’ already existed so many years ago ( ye not as many pixels etc.) but these new developments are so kitten late in my opinion. People are willing to spend a lot of money to get a better game experience….I hope keyboards and gamepads soon belong to the past and when this happens, I think the currently existing limit of skill will highly increase and it will reward these really good players way better than now.

But what I fear is that gamedeveloper enterprises are feared by these improvements…most people just want a quick game with quick sucess and reward, people will buy this game everytime and play it often….And now imagine a game where the skill determines everything, we would have a class society in the game. People would get angry because they cant achieve their goals because they are 2 bad or it takes really long…

I really dislike most games now(!), its like I played them all already, often its nothing new and so kitten easy….thats why I stick with games with a good story and maybe racing games.

I only play atm to get more gold, pvp and wvw bores me, pve is really everything done and I just repeat some events..and thats it …waiting for updates, which are providing me with a nice fantasy-rpg feeling or with a good story

Would u create new better games or a series of the same game, which sells really good and people will buy for sure….?

Still I only see how this benifits players with more gold more than players with less gold.
For me its way more important “when” u sell something than " for how much" , even if they have enough g at the start, they could buy something and then they cant get it back and there will be no warning for them then…

It doesnt have to be 1 item that is 20g worth …it can be a stack that is 20g worth…its the same, u cant split a stack you are currently selling and take half of it back

If there only would be banks, credits, negative money means negative social status ingame, then u have to pay higher merchant prices ahahah that would be funny …..

Fus Ro Dah.

Havent seen gem items in this new event. Could it be possible that there are none?

ok I check gw2guru first

People want their items back and sell it cheaper…Then they cant, because they are 2 low at money….now they have to save their money to get back an item which is worth much more…They cant get it back, they get mad, after 2 days they have enough money to get it back, but the price is only 10% of it was before… qq much

U cant react fast, you are depended on your money in your pocket all the time when you sell something…

Same with your precursor example….imagine the dawnseller choses a very bad day to sell a precursor, after him 20 new precursors appear with a lower price, it would take probably very long to sell it but he doesnt want to wait, he rather would pick a buyorder than wait months….but he cant…he cant list it cheaper and cant get it back …
a poor player with a precursor and he cant sell it, yeaa, nothing new

But I really want something like a warning system, if the fee gets really big more than 10g or something it should ask you again, if u are sure to pay so much….sometimes people missclick silver and gold or wrong numbers or wrong buyorders and then they lose a lot

There was a better conversion until ore prices exploded. Its still profitable but much less now….

with old ore prices: 1500karma +4s = 10-15s profit
with new ore prices 1500karma +10s = 5-10s profit

considering the average is most times near the lower profitcalculation, its a little annoying now…

150k = 10g … 7g=100k karma……

In my point of view the karmaexchange to goldrate is way better as with orrian boxes+rng but it needs time because u have to craft things and buy karmathings….
but if u are willing to do this, I have found a tool with which u can get them really fast

Who really is interested can find karmacraft products really fast anyway…but be aware, not every craft with karma sells good

karka shells = Tulip mania

I didnt buy one because if 10000people do the same, market goes crazy…like yesterday…

however I do believe they increase in the future…karka are still aannoying to kill…but the supply after 4 weeks of farm will be very huge…

I bought some passion flowers as I expect some WvW players to buy the 150 thoughness poiton and bought my blood for gift of fortune because I expect t6 blood to rise

get both and make eternity…mhh idk

dawn was almost always cheaper than dusk…nothing new

dusk sellorder are 600g buyorder 550g ….510g with risk of undercutter or 470g instant profit….The buyorder is good, if u really want to sell it………

If u have to repost it in the tradingpost more than once you could have sold it directly with the same profit

But we arent robots who run cof p1 24/7, we get bored and we go to arah and farm t6, because we are awesome.

Supply dropped in the last few days by 70. Now 150…
As soon as the people with sellorders at 30-33g(which were quite many) are gone, it will rise quicker….
Always imagine that now people want to speculate (again) as they see the increase….So we have a higher demand but we dont know if its backed up by the real economy or speculators..probably both more or less

Think the op actually found the worst day to sell it..

I dont know if somebody has mentioned it already, I didnt real the whole thread, so much text ….

But I’ve thought about raids some months ago too, for me there’s always the problem about how you die in gw2 and if you would implement this “Rally” aka “Downed” system into raids, it could really suck.

In this case all boss battles must have no opportunity to quickly rally on a single mob….
Furthermore in a raid a downed person is healed very quickly, not to say instant….
In this case bosses need some sort of buff if a player is downed…otherwise its like a dragon event and nobody dies and its way to easy….

more people will be in arah again after the “living story” event, more t6 again..

I searched the post -__-….be grateful

“1. We did about half the weapon set with W1. We’ll do the other half with W2.”
" I don’t think we will have the same set of Super Skins at our next release."

But I think I’m still missing a better thread about this skintopic, which I cant find atm.

I skipped all the qq and mimimi …my solution:
Make a guild, buy influence something around 4g should be enough, wait 3 days and be happy with 50 slots.
Still not souldbound items there but I dont care, soulbound items have enough space in regualr bank.

If I need more space I make another guild.

I didnt get all minis at the beginning now I have no interest anymore in getting them.
I believe some other players like me get demotivated soon if they cant get all.

Maybe they sell more over the gemstore in a short period, but I really hate items that are only accessable through special events at special times.

U can have 1 karmamini for all your twinks, isnt that awesome? At least we can sell the exotic Reefrider…it can always be worst, atleast most times

Craft/mystic forge minis wasnt such a bad idea in my opinion….next winter I can get the 3 remaining and then I have all 5 (normal winter minis)

then why is it in the blacklion trading company thread? its more lore or something else…

There are so many items u probably cant imagine where would it come from… ectoplasma, gold and gear in mobs…its a rpg it has to be like this

Loot

Cursed Shore
Risen
Sparks
Malchor’s Leap
Risen
Spectral Weapons
Eternal Battlegrounds
Ascalonian ghosts

Packages

Heavy Moldy Bag
Heavy Bag of Booty

Transmutation

You can transmute Crystalline Dust at a Mystic Forge.

Exotic mini for 1g ?

its shiny exotic , it must be good, people will buy…. in the future…but it could take really really long

so long, maybe I wouldnt buy too much…

Keep in mind, there are probably 2-4times the amount of minis already now around the players….and the event still goes on

Markets could be really mature.

You have to wait some months. These skins really need some time to increase…
I think these skins dont come back ever again. Even if Superbox get reintroduced there will be other skins and skins for other weapons aswell but not the current ones.

I said it some time ago and now again, as soon as the supply is under 100 units the price will really increase… The last days it slowly started to drop 5%-10%. I would at least wait another month. Ghastly grinning Shield Skin took 2-3 months aswell and exploded during the 4th, but it was really low supply(<100) almost all the time.

I can imagine that many people thought that they could make quick profits but skins are longterm items. That would describe the current price.

You can still farm T5 ….250 T5 1 T6 = 10-40 T6. English Wiki is wrong with 6-40.

If I would sit on T6 dust I would sell it now. The current situation is really a little ridiculous maybe they even the “drops” out a little.

claw,scale and bone t6 items are really low in supply aswell, only a few 1k …blood seems overrated (eventough its the berserk material…)

If a T6 main crafting item stays under 1k supply in the longterm!!!, then theres something wrong!!

Give players a way to farm them better, we dont want free loots.

U guys should consider that some people sit on very huge stacks of karkasheels they bought the last weeks….(there was even a gw2tradingpost blogthread about the recommandation to buy it) Im not sure about Karka and rising prices….in the very longterm yea maybe but I would let my fingers off them….

the stats on the armor and weapons are not really worth it anyway in my opinion

I stick with settler rings, accesoirces and amulets, even if there are 100 new supply every day, u could easily buy some hundreds near the end of the event (I prefer ring and accesoirce, cause they can buy it twice, amulet only one use, so there will be higher demand) …and they are removing the passionflower ressource nodes probably(because in the update notes its under " Still in Southson")
this means higher craftcosts for apothecary items(nearly same stats like settlers) and if they rise again settlers will too…

and theres still the ecto limit…exotics items most times have at least the prize of 2 ectos..

I dont like that 1 person could theoretically buy this all and wouldnt have to bother with place issues, because the trading post is like a 2nd bank. U can make your inventory full and take the gold and leave the items on it.

Noticed it yesterday, but still 2 late for bigger profits… I bought ingots…ingots were cheaper then 1 ore yesterday….whoever bought these masses of ore didnt thought about ingots, at least not all sorts of ingots…

However I could understand if the price would stay more or less at this point. All the units which existed on the tp were pretty old, the regular supply of lowlvl ore decreased pretty much and the people probably dont care about the price anyway. Its just a matter of some copper

@Lhound: 1 million less units in 4 days – above 2millions in 2 weeks … I dont think its only because of the crafts

Its now 9 months? after gw2 release…I now wonder whats the highest rank a player achieved until now….
There are probably a few players who just play for PvP only or most of their time

I saw a lvl 60 some days ago…

Its just that I would expect that after at least 1 year as a very-active pvpplayer that somebody would have the top level, if its even exists..idk

Atm it feels like it would take ages till I get pass lvl 30+

Lets do little math now…till rank 70 its 3million glory….lets imagine we would gain 250glory each match in 10minutes(optimistic mh)….then I need 2 play almost 3 months
considering u have to sleep and u have a job/whatever…6hrs pvp per day(I know its ridiculous)

…means after 1 year u are rank 70 after another year u are rank 80

How does this fit that gw2 is not a grindgame? Y does it has to be like this? Is there somebody in the community who supports this kind of system?

I can imagine that these kind of threads already existed at the beginning of gw2 but for me its still a topic and it seems like most players just accepted that it wouldnt change or not?

how does the new rtl works if the target evades it? 40secs or 20secs?
Most times if my enemy sees me approaching him with rtl they instinctivly evade because of the knockdown after it….

so even when we use it to get “in the fight” like we should, we get probably a 40secs cd because we didnt hit anybody….

just play elementalist
