I think the reason you dont like it is because it makes your sylvari look scrawny compared to your mixed and match armor set. To be honest I love the T3 set, but on your character it doesnt look as good as it would’ve looked on a sylvari with a thicker body. I really like the mix and match set though, I’d change the color of the T3 helm to match it up more with the color of the armor. It seems to be slightly off colored.
Same thing is happening to me, at first I thought it was just a coincident, but it happened to me again today and has made confirmed about this bug. Please fix this ArenaNet, or give us an explanation on why this is happening.
There are other things besides FotM (Fractals of the Mist). People have this mentality that MMORPG’s are all about having the best gear. There are other things that players can do in GW2:
1) Help other players
2) Complete all achievements
3) Finish all Jumping puzzles
4) Obtain lv400 in all crafting disciplines
5) Craft unique items using mystif forge
6) Level up all character types
7) Join a guild and beat all dungeons pathways
8) Fill all crafting slots with 250 items
9) Get all mini pets
10) Have fun!The point is people pay too much attention to getting the best gear, which Anet has provided via FotM and Ascended gear – but you are still not happy about it because it requires grinding/commitment.
Most of the stuff on your list there would also require ‘grinding and commitment’ so that’s a pretty weak arguement.
When better gear is made available it is optional in the same way that levelling is optional. You don’t technically have to do it but if you want to have full access to the game’s content you will eventually be required to. The blogs by ANet staff have made it clear that they are planning new content based around ascended gear. That means if ascended gear is ‘optional’ to you then you’re not going to see very much of that new content.
Most players understand this, which is why they feel forced to run fractals. If you genuinely don’t care then good for you, but don’t deride other players for being frustrated about having to do content they don’t enjoy just to keep up with future releases (a situation this game was promised never to have).
1) You say, and I quote, “…being frustrated about having to do content they don’t enjoy just to keep up with future releases.”. So you don’t enjoy doing any of the points I mentioned above? Couple this with the Ascended gear related content basically leaves a player with nothing to do. There are lots of other things to do in this game, however, players don’t want to do that but prefer to get better items – hence why FotM and Ascended gear was introduced.
2) Grinding, IMO, is doing the same thing over and over untill its done. Yes, my above points can be taken as grinding, however, one can switch between them so the process doesn’t feel like grinding (i.e. tedious, boring and/or annoying). People are annoyed with Ascende gear because they can’t find anything else to do within the game or they don’t want to.
3) In all honesty where did people think that end-game content would go. Afcourse it would go in the grind directon, with perhaps some extra jumping puzzles and events. However, overall it would be lv80 related.
Honestly, don’t you think the things you’re saying are starting to make it look like you’re trying too hard to enjoy the game? We, the players, are supposed to have fun playing the game, we’re supposed to enjoy the game regardless of what we do. So with that being said, we shouldn’t be the ones trying hard to keep the game fun and happy, I think that’s A.NET’s job and right now, as you can see by the people posting on here, they’re not doing too good of a job.
