Thanks for listening. You guys did such a good job with the previous set of icons, that’s why there was such a fuss.

Agree completely, the previous icons were much better. I’m considering turning off my badge purely for aesthetic reasons now.

Has anyone gotten issues with dragging inventory off the screen to destroy, but it switched with another item due to the lag?

Guildmate of mine said he lost some champ bags to that yesterday.

I organize the TD meta with my guild every day. We’ve only had to cancel once this week due to ddos but we had some close calls.

The biggest problem is the capacity of the map is so low that even on a normal day we can’t accommodate all who want to join from guild/lfg, and have to spend an inordinate amount of time trying to find an empty map to include as many participants as possible. DDOS hits us really hard because people are showing up 45 minutes early to get a spot and then losing it to dcs. If a commander dcs then things get ugly really fast. We usually have 4 guild commanders with backup lieutenants but if the tag can’t be transferred there can still be issues. (Being able to xfer tag while not in the same map as the recipient would help.)

So some capacity increase or failing that a better way of handling dcs from full maps would go a long way to mitigating the impact of these incidents that lag up the game but don’t completely knock it out. Thank you.

War Gs nerf???Seriously cast time?

It is a pretty weird change considering power PS is already way behind condi PS. Nobody wants power ps in raids anymore except for KC. And now you nerfed it even further?

I'd be more inclined to buy GS gifts if...

I had a way to actually tell if the intended recipient has that item unlocked already!

Some of my friends are “the person who has everything” types or so it seems, and I’m afraid to buy anything that is not completely new because of that. My wife got a duplicate gift once from a guildmate and had to file a support ticket—naturally she didn’t tell the giver about that.

Do people like Meta Maps?

My guild leads TD every day and there are others doing TD, DS, SW, etc (not so much VB or AB anymore.) I find challenging map metas to be a nice balance between easy, freeform open world gameplay and the stress of raids. The difficulty is often in organizing groups of players that haven’t necessarily fought together before. When it all comes together it can be very rewarding for the participants and organizers alike.

Dye feedback

I would be more willing to buy dye kits if they only had the special dyes, but cost more. The chance of getting generic dyes completely puts me off purchasing these.

Can we please get a /gg voting function for spvp? Having to wait for hopeless matches and 4v5s to go to the bitter end makes the game mode less fun without adding any benefit. If 3 or 4 out of the 5 agree to concede there is no point dragging it out. Thanks.

sPvP Season 5 2016?

Any way we can get a toggle to hide the ranked badge on our nameplate? It seems unnecessary in PvE.

You can hide your badge on a per-character basis from the League UI.

Hey I know this is a few days late but wanted to say thanks Evan!

Ele was already so strong that I’m kind of baffled that it got a buff. But then I don’t have all the data.

Postponed our activities, started organizing activities, got dc’d, got in again just long enough to post that all our scheduled events are canceled, then got dc’d again.

Better luck tomorrow?

Would like to see more game modes, but hate team deathmatch and would rather not see courtyard come back as tdm. Unless of course I can avoid queuing for it.

Teammate desertion

in PvP

Posted by: Dixie Cougar.2415

Dixie Cougar.2415

None of that really applies to this fact pattern though. He came back (which makes no sense if it’s a deliberate desertion) and we won the match. A player should never lose a pip if their team wins a match and they’re in the match and participating (he killed the lord, so he would have earned personal score) when it ends.

Teammate desertion

So my teammate’s computer crashed right during a ranked match setup.
I was in TS with him; he even timed out of there. We fought 4v5 for several minutes.
He came back after he had already passed the threshhold for a desertion, helped us win the match, and still lost a pip. This just happened to be the match that would have gotten him into Sapphire.

Is there really any reason to treat a player like this in this circumstance? He did exactly what he should have—restarted his machine, came back as quickly as possible, and jumped back into the fight.

Homing Rocks...

The rocks are actually angling at the last minute to hit us. It’s ludicrous.

Will more CT masteries be added?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Dixie Cougar.2415

Dixie Cougar.2415

I have 10 unused CT mastery points and everything maxed except for the legendary line. I have no plans to craft any legendary weapons, so I’m holding onto the points in case more masteries are added. Anyone know of any information as to whether this will ever happen? Thanks!

stating additional stats are coming.

Great news!

I want this for sPvP too. Seriously, when my team is down 200+ points it’s over and yet tryhards still insist on yelling at me for not trying to cap points anymore. In over 1k games (not that much by some standards, but still) I have never seen any team overcome more than a 150pt deficit. At that point I’m rooting for the other team if only to save time…

I saw that, but I don’t understand how having a non-raid stat combo locked behind a raid for a few more months increases anyone’s enjoyment of the game.

This is kind of frustrating. They said all stat combinations that were only available through raids before would become available through living story, yet they leave out Marauder`s which is the one I was waiting for. They keep being consistently inconsistent with stats availability. -.-

Thinking exactly the same thing.

Finding this out kind of killed a significant part of the update for me. I’m enjoying the mechanics and the story but in terms of gear progression the one thing I really wanted was Marauder trinkets.

I don’t care at all about the RL angle, but this joke is annoying after the first 5 mins. Yeah, a toggle would have been nice.

Please give us an option to turn events off

It’s not offensive to me, simply annoying after the first 5 minutes. Why shouldn’t we be able to turn it off?
