Guild Wars 2

Chantry of Secrets fixed it for me.

Now that Lyns can’t stock up on keys anymore, I really hope she’s been secretly stocking up on other items instead, like for instance:
- Black Lion salvage kits
- 20-slot bags
- Armor skins
- Bank tabs
- Karma jugs
- (Highest tier) material packs

Well, let’s see, I really hope she surpises all of us

I hope so. The stuff that it offered before were kind of ehhh…. except for maybe the salvage kit and keys.

I think they should make the keys either easier to obtain or give better stuff from chests…

Chicken.

The main point is: Thief and their stealth ability, gives them unfair advantage (In my opinion as the receiving end) to not die(free to engage/disengage at will). As suggested by the screen shots.

Agree. Anet should revisit this thief mechanic as there is no counter for this skill (throwing random AOE or attack randomly is not counter; this is not happen in other MMORPG). It can be done by nerfing, making revealed debuff longer (if the thief attacked before stealth), or make an item (consumable (sensor or flare)) to give revealed debuff to the thief and make some NPC (supervisor, keep lord, upgraded scout guard, tower lord, SM lord) can detect stealthy (but not giving revealed debuff to thief).

Why don’t you just knock them out of the shelter before it completes?
Make an item? lol that’s like saying lets make an item so we can sense which Mesmer is the real one!

LMAO, instead of asking for a change in game mechanics, figure out a way to counter it yourself. Plenty of people have.

And how is throwing AoE on the ground not a counter? You know where they are trying to stealth. It’s not random, its smart placement of your AoE.

Hey, need I mention that people in your invul they cant do any damage to you lol. Just kill them.

You kidding me? Necros eat conditions every meal of the day. I know people that play Necro and they love it lol. They laugh in malicious laughter as the person they condition stack dies without them having to even get close.

Try facing a p/d thief, necros can remove and stack their bleedas on them maybe (5-8) stack and they will clean it while the skill the necros has is 90min CD, the thief doesn’t have CD and if you’re lucky to stack 8 bleeds on the thief good luck with that since the damage suck balls.

I’ll assume you meant 90sec.

Avoid the thief then. There are classes/builds certain classes/builds are better against. You can’t expect a single class to be on equal footing vs all other classes. For example, a guardian would have a hard time with ranged classes as opposed to other melee classes just due to the fact that they are not mobile enough and often have a harder time closing the distance gap.

I haven’t really been paying attention to necro patch notes but I’m just saying…
Play your strengths.

Well sure, but that would have to be them remapping the servers wouldn’t it? I don’t know how they manage their servers currently but I’d assume there’s one or more servers dedicated to a specific world.

To make overflows for all the different maps so that more than one world shares the zone would mean a set of servers collectively hosting all the PvE maps. I’d imagine that would be a major change for devs.

Perhaps having a few servers dedicated to overflow maps to allow a player to choose an overflow option of the PvE map so that there is a option to do map events with other worlds. Maybe a option somewhere for “Join overflow”

I find that most PvE maps are pretty dead and you end up doing events by yourself. Joining a set overflow would allow for more social interaction and player cooperation which I think was what the game had intended for all these dynamic events.

Of course there would be the issue of exploitation of events by constantly switching to overflows. However, by setting it so that there can only be one overflow of the map would solve this. If the overflow is full, then its full. Queue for it.

If map overflows are constantly full maybe they can say have 3 sets of overflow maps.

1 world from each of the WvW tiers. (Since WvW tiers often represent population size)

Final thought: Wouldn’t this topic be better in the suggestion forum?

You kidding me? Necros eat conditions every meal of the day. I know people that play Necro and they love it lol. They laugh in malicious laughter as the person they condition stack dies without them having to even get close.

You, run into a zerg of 20 people, they all AOE, you die.
You, run into a zerg of 20 people, they all single target you, you die.

AoE doesn’t even hit everyone… most AoEs have a max of 5 people it can hit at one time. Even if you do say a warrior spin, you wont hit everyone around you.

You, run into a zerg of 20 people, you spin, you down 2 – 4 people, the rest of them single target/AoE you, you die. Then you rally all of them.

AoE isn’t a problem in my opinion.

I think a lot of the reason with people QQing about AoE is their own play style.

Most people would rather push the blame to game mechanics as opposed to their own play style.

Mute. Nothing they’re doing is outside the boundaries of the game. That is the cold hard truth. I get annoyed by that sometimes too, so I just turn down the game sound until I move areas..

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542:

So, any response as to why you bait and switched us?

You may or may not have to wait another few weeks for a reply. shrugs

I hope they will reply soon but then again I also hope I’ll win the lottery

I just hope they create a new way of obtaining black lion keys. They are far too expensive on the gem store for what you get from an average black lion chest.

Yeah, I agree with you. I’ve bought those keys with purchased gems before… the “reward” for opening those boxes are kind of ehhh… You spend $10 to get some influence for your guild, probably like 20 silver, and some random crap you probably will never use and takes space in ur storage.

If the loot from the chests aren’t that great then the keys should be easier to obtain.
If the keys are harder and more expensive to obtain, the loot should be better.

Of course this is all my opinion.

Well that’s nothing short of disappointing. I was hoping to trade the commendations for keys… they could just increase the pricing of the keys so that people who spent gold getting those commendations can still get what they originally wanted. That would have been a better move in my opinion.

I guess they wouldn’t care so now I’m gunna end up with a inventory full of salvage kits. yay.

Sucks for the guy that posted all those cases of commendations.
