Guild Wars 2

My HERALD! “Twisted Aetherblade”

There is a certain roleplaying aspect to it. I loved Scarlet Briar as a villain, and I made my character to show that support! So the idea here, is that my character is an Aetherblade, twisted by Scarlet Briar.

For this, Im collecting Aetherized weapons. My collection consists of: Hammer, Greatsword, Staff, Sword, Mace and Shield!

Still awaiting responds from Anet employee.

Greetings

Ive reported this before, but it seems like such a small issue that its being overlooked. So I feel I need to continiusly report it until its fixed.. Kind salty about that.

The mini has a unique animation compared to the regular Mini Twisted nightmare, but its not playing. Appearntly its supposed to stand on 2 legs, where the regular one stays down on 4. The enraged does absolutely nothing.

This mini has cost me a fair amount of gold, so its frustrating to see it not working, and the report being overlooked. Either on purpose because its being considered trivial, or because a mod just didnt notice.

Hope it will b e looked into.

Greetings!

Just purchased Aetherized Shield skin for 224, only to see that its visually bugged.

Basically the shield is floating a hands length off the back, creating a huge gap between the back and the shield.

Please look into this.

Greetings everyone!

I was a big fan of Scarlet Briar and the lore behind her. So much that I decided to create a character dedicated to her and the conflict with LA. I named this character:

Twisted Aethercharr
http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp331/AngelAffinity/4_zps76wm6hjh.jpg

Creating this character has since been my GW2 goal. To complete him so to say. The goal seemed straight forward, as I only needed a name change, some appearance change, a certain style and weapon skins. I managed to get myself most the mentioned:

Hammer

Greatsword

Sword
http://i425.photobucket.com/albums/pp331/AngelAffinity/2_zps1bihli53.jpg

I was rather pleased and after a loooong grind of gold, I managed to get those 3 skins despite the fact they were about 300-400g a piece back then. I needed a break after that, and when I came back, the skins were no longe available outside the auction house for large amount of gold.

It would be an understatement to say I was disappointed. Guild Wars 2 is my favorite game, and having my personal goal ripped away from me like that made me rather disappointed and sad. I still needed: Shield, Longbow and Warhorn.

I contacted Anet, asking if there was any alternatives, like getting the skins back or purchasing them unofficially with real money, but no. All they could do was to ask me to make a thread about the issue and hope people would back me up with the following request:

Bring Aetherized Skins back

I know this might be an odd thing to ask of others, but I need your help. I need you to help me get the skins back so I can complete my Guild Wars 2 goal. And for that, I’ve made a poll:

I hope you guys will help me fulfull my goal, but I will hold no ill feelings towards those who does not feel the skins should return.

Peace!

Haha I remember partying up with you for Jormag and fire ele a week or so back, talking about how valuable these skins have become. However, as one of the few lucky ones who own those, I would hate to see them devalued to the point where they become common. Much like the Fused skins, the Aetherized skins are pretty much ’’Legendary" right now.

Not fair you say? Maybe… but oh well.

Remember these items are as valuable to you as they are to me. I paid a lot of money for each piece and if they came back for less, yes that would suck kinda. But essentially, it wouldn’t matter. I still have the items that I bought for what I thought they were worth. And I really want to complete my character!

Kal Spiro.9745:

I don’t understand why you need all these weapons, you can’t use them concurrently. Just pick two sets and move on.

The shield is the most important one as its a part of my main set. The others are lower priority, but I do use longbow and warhorn. It’s just to complete my character really.

velmeister.4187:

Aren’t they from black lion tickets or something? It’s really a stupid greed driven policy from ANET/NC.

Yeah it’s from the black lion tickets. I don’t know what was the idea behind it, but it sucks

Hey…

This is the 2nd time I buy an expensive mini and then they turn out bugged. Safe to say I’m getting rather annoyed.

The Mini twisted nightmare, performs its animation, however the enraged version does not.

Its animation:

Please fix this. It shouldn’t be something that takes long to adjust I would assume.

i just had to logout. I was doing shadow behemoth, and all the sudden, EVERYTHING was unresponsive.

Greetings Forum

I’ve been experiencing some weird lag for a while now. Basically my skills stops activating, everyone stands still, and those who were moving keeps moving in that direction. I can still move around though.

First I was terrified that it could be the fact Im from europe, playing on a NA server. But most the time the game runs flawlessly. When I have these weird lagspikes, I ask in chat, and some (not all) are experiencing lag as well.

Is there anything I can do to improve this? Is anyone else here having these problems?

One of the things I enjoy the most about MMO’s is customization. So naturally I’d like to see more of it in Guild Wars 2, as I primarily play that. A few things I’ve noticed, that REALLY bugs me is the following:

1. Just bought Ceremonial Plated Outfit, and I noticed I couldn’t preview new haircuts from “Self-Style Hair kit”, with the Outfit. It would only show my primary armors.

2. When using “Self-Style Hair Kit”, you can’t preview new hairstyles with actual headgear on. Some headgears does not cover the entire head, so it would be nice to be able to find a haircut that goes with a current outfit.

3. Please allow us to preview haircuts and maybe body appearence in “Wardrobe Storage”. I find it rather difficult or dareing to come up with an entire new look, as many of them requires new haircut or body appearence. By allowing us to preview those features, it’ll be easier to throw together a complete look, and we wouldn’t have to “gamble” or “hope” that we can find a haircut that fits with our appearence.

4. The Ceremonial Plated Outfit, is absolutely amazing. However, it bugs me that it is an “outfit”, and not individual pieces we can choose from. I find most the shop sets to be lacking in terms of details and creativity, but the Ceremonial Plated impressed me, and I hope that we will see similar creative armors as a set in the future.

These are the main 4 things I personally would like to see changed/implented. Please remember that we all enjoy different things, and being able to customize a cool character is one of the things I enjoy.

I suggest that you watch some thief guides on youtube, and check comments for feedback on those builds. Also be sure to look at the dates to be sure they are still holding up.

Personally, I would always suggest aiming towards a full set of berserker so you can speedrun dungeons for gold. (A lot of people demand party members to use berserker ((zerk)) for dungeon runs) Other than that, follow Dulfy’s world boss timer, and do all of them once a day for a sure 4+ gold alone.

Another good way to earn money is to explore. Higher level areas such as cursed shore can give you quite a lot of money when you finish exploring. I just finished cursed shore today on my ranger and I earned almost 10g. I did cut down every tree I saw though, and tagged on every champ I came by. I was also lucky to get 40 Ancient woods from the explore chest I hope it helps!

I just leveled a ranger to 80, and what I did was, I stayed on 1 map that was appropriate for my level and I explored it entirely. It gives absolutely amazing exp and you get good money and nice rewards for it.

- Take all the waypoints on the map
- Take all vistas on the map
- Take all points of interests on the map
- Take all skillpoints on the map
- Do all hearts on the map

If you are having trouble finding them, google the map you are on to see a completed map. Then you can go through it and see what you are missing.
Later on you will thank yourself for having done it, since getting 100% completion is necessary for crafting legendaries too.

Additionally, when going through the map, participate in any event you come by for even more exp. If you need to know anything else, feel free to pm me in game, I’d be happy to help you.

Behellagh.1468:

To my knowledge they only returned twice, last August’s aniversary sale for both and this March, 1 day only for just Rox’s.

No real pattern. I think they have a dart board as to what’s returning or what goes on sale.

Argh that sucks, I’m really wanting this backpiece

Hello everyone!

I just recently got my ranger to level 80, and I’m having a blast playing with him. After buying all my gear I started handpicking skins for him to make him look awesome! Now, a few things I still need are dreamthistle longbow skin (expensive but a nice goal), and Rox’s Quiver.

I’ve missed EVERY SINGLE BRAHAM AND ROX SALE EVER, because I have school and been busy everytime they come on sale. So Im asking, does Anet have a tendency to release these skins after a certain amount of time in between?

Thanks for reading and hope to get an answer

This is a more than 2 month old issue, and chances are it wont be solved in the near future. Enjoy Guild Wars 2.

Astral Projections.7320:

The next patch day is August 12. The previous was July 29th. It’s every 2 weeks.

They dont post “builds” ?

I can’t find patch notes from the latest build that was released just now. Where do I look for these?

Welcome to Guild Wars 2.

They are looking into the matter. A lot of people are having these issues. For me, the game is almost unplayable. I just lost my ranger to the loading screen bug, so I have to wait leveling him until they fix it.

It sometimes help to guest on another server though, but not all the time. It just helped on my warrior, but my ranger remains unplayable.

Current thread about the issue: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/Connection-error-7-11-3-191-101-merged/page/5#post4261434

ISP: TDC Data Networks
Region: Denmark
Server: Crystal Desert

2 characters stuck in Metrica Province
1 character stuck in Queensdale (which I could enter earlier today just fine)

Title says it all… please fix this, 2 of my characters are unplayable now.

I just got this problem after trying to go to Metrica Province

Aguri.2896:

If they sell out chances are we won’t see any more, just like the blue SAB weapons that didn’t even come back for round 2. But it’s not too late if there are still some on the TP. You can make 200+ gold a week by running 10 dungeons a day as long as you sell everything and don’t buy anything. It does take about 2-3 hours to run all 10 though and if you have a bad group even longer.

Im 200g in dept atm that I’m paying back asap, and the rifle is shooting up in price very fast. I also start school again on the 12th next month, so chances are I wont make it.

Greetings everyone!

I’m a huge fan of Scarlet Briar. My charr warrior is currently pure aetherized themed, with 3 aetherized weapon skins so far. Absolutely love him.

A little while back, I noticed the rifle skin “Scarlet’s Kiss”, and I felt in love with it right away. Not only is it connected to the most facinating character in GW2 for me, but the skin looks amazing.

Here’s the problem though. Appearntly it was a possible reward when beating Scarlet Briar during the event, and I missed out on that part for personal reasons, and when I saw the price and how fast its disappearing from the Trade post, well I got kind of sad.

I don’t know HOW, but is it possible that this skin is EVER going to come back to the game? Or do I just have to accept that I lost the opportunity for such an amazing skin? What do you guys think?

Best Regards

Baphomet Fanum!

Im seeing threads that are 2 months old reporting this problem. It is now second time in a row that I dont get my chest. Any chance this will EVER be fixed? Or do I just stop doing wurm all together? Can’t even get a freaking compensation. Ridiculous.

I am experiencing this too.

When using the kit, you cant preview new hairstyles with your current headgear showing. This is a big issue for me, since I want to know if the 2 fits together… please fix this.

As title says. This sigil won’t proc. I’ve tried numerous changes and it wont proc. Sometimes it would, but now it completely stopped working. I tried waiting 9 seconds, I am in combat of course, but no luck.

Please fix this asap, it’s ruining my entire build..

Notes:
I’m using 2 sets of weapons:

Sword (Sigil of int) + shield (Sigil of fire)

Axe (Sigil of fire) + mace (Sigil of int)

- When I logged in with this setup, sigil of int wouldnt proc for any of them.

- After Switching my sword with another sword with no sigil of int, and switch back to my sword WITH sigil of int, then the proc works for both.

- Switching map will reset this, making both sigils not proc once more.

- Seems as if the sigil bugs if we have 1 on each set

Nash.2681:

Seems bugged to me. Tried the same with my Charrior and his Rifle (idea was to ensure a 100% crit Kill Shot in WvW). In fact crits are total random, no matter if I use Kill Shot immediatly or another weapon skill. Sad Charrior is sad now

I was testing a few scenarios with someone from LA, and appearntly my shield is the problem. It would proc instead of my sword. I tried replacing my shield with another sword without any proc sigils, and both switches would proc the 100% crit chance. :S

I made a bug report, explaining how to fix it temporarily: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Superior-Sigil-of-Intelligence-not-working/first#post4179705

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Superior_Sigil_of_Intelligence

Okay, so Im using a charr warrior. Currently trying a new build that includes:

Sword (Sigil of int) + shield (Sigil of battle)

Axe (Sigil of fire) + Mace (Sigil of int)

So here is the problem. When I trigger combat on a random mob, with axe + mace, then switch to sword + shield, my next 3 attacks does NOT crit. I have tried waiting a min before combat, I have tried waiting 9 seconds before swapping weapons after I trigger combat, nothing works.

Can someone please tell me if this is normal? Am I doing something wrong? Or is this bugged and needs to be reported?

Thanks!

Reading this put a huge smile on my face. Thanks for shareing Christina, and all the best to you!

kokiman.2364:

Do it like in GW1 and add area specific RARE weapons skins or even armor skins that can drop from any mob.

I love that idea. Especially since I want more costumization in the game.

As many people have noticed, the amount of players on 99% of all maps has decreased massively. No one really does low level events anymore, because there are no points in doing them. A lot of maps are empty.

So I came up with this idea. Why not make achievements for each map? For instance, 5 events on Kessex hill, will give 1-5 achievement points. Maybe 5 random events daily. Put that on every map out there (or some), and the amount of people visiting these areas should increase.
I would personally love to see more players while leveling.

Do you guys think such feature would increase the overall activity? Please post your ideas, and tell me if my idea is stupid or has potential.

( I’m aiming for a discussion here, so I hope it doesn’t seem TOO much like a suggestion )

Fanum.6598:

As much as I hate that demeaning reply of yours, that is kind of what it comes down to by the end of it. I enjoy my warrior, and it’s getting nerfed. Pretty natural that I would react negatively to that don’t you think?

If you take your time and think WHY they are making these changes you will realise that they are long overdue. The critical damage nerf is caused by finally normalizing critical damage with all other stats, it’s actually a fix. Critical damage had values all over, and it’s finally getting balanced, the “nerf” is a direct result of making it work like other stats.

Healing Signet is one of the best healing skills in the game and 8% isn’t nearly enough, they need to nerf it more and make the active more powerful. Passive skills shouldn’t be strong, skills without counters shouldn’t be strong. There is no Warrior alive that ever uses the active of the Signet and it shouldn’t be that way. Better active, even less powerful passive is what they need. Sadly they nerf it by a simple 8% which is nothing.

I’ve read many threads about bad Anet decisions and how they “destroy” the game, but they were a lot more than a Warrior crying over some justified nerfs.

Well you are crying over me crying so. /care.

And the healing signet is good, but far from the best. All a thief has to do to get full health is to cloak for 0,00005 seconds. Which btw they can do all the time. A good build ranger are also extremely difficult to kill due to the high regen. Elementalists with good fingers can also be hard to beat. If Warriors healing signets needs a nerf, then so does all the other signets / skills that keeps people up to 100% health 24/7.

As far as your crit explanation, well I can’t agree or disagree. I’m blindly against it, mostly due to my gut feeling, but I’m also open to the idea that it may balance the game in the end. My main point / concern, was if most the playerbase didn’t want the nerf/change because they find it irrelevant or game breaking, that Anet would go through with it anyways. I came to that fear by listening to spamchat by everyone in the game, saying its a bad idea.

BirdSong.2541:

Fanum.6598:

yes Im exaggerating to get my point out, and yes I havent given it all as much thought as I probably should have.

Everyone read this.
Now wait for thread to be moved to trashcan.

In the future please dont post until you’ve read the OP denouncing his own post in the OP.

When someone is frustrated or upset, it’s very natural to act impulsively. Even though that was the case, and I admitted to that, as you saw yourself, I still got my point out, and did my very best to keep it as clear as possible.

And don’t tell me when I can and can not post my ideas and thoughts. I’m open for the fact that a lot more people will disagree on a half hearted post but that was a consequence I was willing to accept.

Despite of that, I am still getting a lot of good replies. A lot of people are disagreeing, but are giving very valid points. So i would appreciate if you would simply ignore my posts if you hate them that much, instead of calling them trash, thank you.

-Negative Fanum Deactivated-

you sounds exactly like “boohoo Anet nerfed my class, bohoo i quit….”

normalising crit damage as a stat is the smartest thing they did since the release.

As much as I hate that demeaning reply of yours, that is kind of what it comes down to by the end of it. I enjoy my warrior, and it’s getting nerfed. Pretty natural that I would react negatively to that don’t you think?

chemiclord.3978:

And ya know what… I’m perfectly fine with that.

It’s their game. They extend feedback to me and other players as a courtesy. The player base is NOT entitled to influence. Our power is not supporting something we don’t like.

Well yeah, I guess you could put it like that. But still, we are the players, and some costumers. If they neglect what we want, it’s not going to have a positive impact on the player base. They would lose players and by the end of it, destroy the game. I mean of course we shouldnt get to decide everything but I think it would be in everyones best interest, if Anet would listen to the majority, if they disagree with Anets decision, and maybe consider that it was a mistake.

Also, I dont feel intitled, but I enjoy the game. So it’s only natural that I react when I think something is wrong.

chemiclord.3978:

Fanum.6598:

I’m not sure if that is the case, but I definately see your point. What annoys the most though, is the fact everyone says its a pve balance. If its a pve balance, then make seperate from pvp and wvw..

In case you haven’t noticed yet (though I don’t know how you couldn’t), Arena.net considers WvW and PvE to be interconnected, and have steadfastly refused to “detach” them despite no small amount of player complaints. Making them separate is a non-starter as far as Arena.net is concerned. It simply is not going to happen. EVER.

I have noticed, and I think it’s a shame. I think they should be seperated and I think a lot of people would agree. But again “never going to happen”. Even if the entire playerbase would want something like that, Anet would disregard it. Thats the base of my concern, that the playerbase has no influence on the way the game will evolve.

I really just want my Braham shield

Crumps.4012:

Is Anet destroying the game? Well, In my humble opinion everyone is missing the point here. These changes to zerker that also affect celestial were said, by the devs, to do with balance for pve…

Now if you think about that it makes no sense. Pve doesn’t need balance because it doesn’t matter…

1 – Everything in pve dies when you hit it a few or more times there’s no challenge it’s all a dps race and no one cares whether or not something dies a few seconds quicker because someone is wearing zerker gear, after all it could be argued there is a risk reward scenario that already balances that. I don’t see anyone moaning that such and such a player plays well enough to wear zerker and it’s not fair boo hoo it just doesn’t register it’s a non issue

2 – no one in their right mind would say celestial needs a nerf it’s crap anyway in the vast majority of builds and professions

So what’s the real reason… Well, the thing is these sets are well defined, one is the best dps and one is the most balanced, supposedly, or at least thought of that way. That makes them popular sets and now we are getting somewhere.

With ascended armor it costs a fortune to make. Most players likely to expend the most gold and therefore $$$ already made their armor sets! A good portion of which would be celestial and zerker. So by making a bogus nonsense balance change it forces those spending players to play more and spend more to rebuild again. This is the only logical reason there can be! So are they destroying the game? Maybe, but not yet as there’s nothing else to play right now. Anet are just milking it dry in the meantime.

Call me a conspiracy theorist if you will but it doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to work this angle out

I’m not sure if that is the case, but I definately see your point. What annoys the most though, is the fact everyone says its a pve balance. If its a pve balance, then make seperate from pvp and wvw..

healing signet is so strong that the warrior does not have to sacrifice DPS for it. Sure other professions can get better regen , but they have to sacrifice their damage. This is why it is over powered.

I see your point, but for the avarage warrior, it’s not that noticable. I mean sure, I see warriors do really good in pvp and wvw, but warriors gets whacked around all the time. So even if they dont need to sacrifice dps, they still die. I admit Im not the best warrior around yet, but for me the regen isnt giving me an unbelievable advantage, at best it makes me stay alive long enough to hope to win.

And besides, all classes have advantages and disadvantages. Warrior isnt an elitist class that everyone choose because its OP. If they want certain wins, they choose thieves or Mesmer.

It’s about the active ability. Currently the passive is so strong that there is no point in using the active side of the signet. You would actually be wasting health in doing so.

This thread, from what i could tell, is about berserker signet warriors – I’m not sure how that nerf in that niche is breaking the game.

I’m focusing mainly on that I agree, but a lot of people are upset about these incomming changes. Despite of that, Anet seems to disregard that entirely. They seem to completely neglect the player base opinions (I know thats an assumption).

If that is the case, the game is not going to grow. If the players are screaming 1 thing, and Anet goes in the exact opposite direction, it’s not going to end well. I guess I didn’t make that point clear.

Also, I focus mainly on those specific things because that is the things that are important to me, and they are on the edge of being nerfed.

Thing is… players are not screaming 1 thing… there are thousands (maybe even millions, we have no way to know) active players screaming thousands of different things.

Just to put an example, you use an outcry about the warrior’s healing signet nerf… yet I do remember a big outcry on forums about warrior’s healing signet being overpowered and asking for a nerf, and actually I do remember from a looooooong time in the forums people crying about berserker gear, and even more berserker warriors being OP in PvE compared to other professions and stat combinations.

Whether they feel Anet is destroying the game, or whether they listen or not to the players is up to each person to decide for themselves… but personally I feel that the upcoming nerf to berserker armor and healing signet are a bad example of anet not listening (I’d say it’s the complete oposite, at least it’s how it feels to me).

Fair enough, it may be a bad example. As I said myself, I may not have given it as much thought as I should have. But this is how it feels for me. Of course I hope I’m wrong. I enjoy playing GuildWars2, and I don’t want it to go in the wrong direction.

Nike.2631:

Fanum.6598:

chemiclord.3978:

Yeah, you kinda lost me at “nerf warrior even more.”

Care to elaborate?

That the class widely regarded as the absolute pinnacle of performance in PvE, serviceable to full-on deadly in WvW, and at least respectable in sPvP is the most deserving of a bit of toning down/nerfing is manifestly self-evident to people who don’t have their ego tied up in in a Warrior-main (and recognized by more than a few who do have Warrior-mains).

Its basically the only class that the Dev say “is where we want it” with ALL OTHERS lagging behind. as long as its an over performer, its going to be square in the gunsights for a trim at minimum, and a sound thrashing with the nerf-bat wouldn’t be out of line.

So opening an argument with “don’t nerf mah warriah!” pretty much nuked your credibility with people interested in seeing this game reach some modicum of level playing field between professions.

Maybe you had some great ideas after that. I honestly don’t know, because I stopped reading at that point too.

Well quite frankly, I don’t think you cared to open your mind to my opinion to begin with, if you entired the topic with that kind of judgmental attitude. I may not be that good at making my point, but I did my best to get everything I felt was needed in there.

It would be super cool, if you would stay on topic if you care for it, instead of bashing the way I choose to get my word out.

If that is the case, the game is not going to grow. If the players are screaming 1 thing, and Anet goes in the exact opposite direction, it’s not going to end well. I guess I didn’t make that point clear.

Also, I focus mainly on those specific things because that is the things that are important to me, and they are on the edge of being nerfed.

Instead of nerfing zerker, they should have boosted cond dmg and cc. With the current mechanics, they are next to useless in PVE. And generally people hate nerfs. They should instead boost weaker options. People like to see heroes growing stronger over time, not the other way around. Basic psychology, anet.

Boosting condition damage and crowd control would cause a huge cry from the WvW/PvP crowd. The crying is already there.

Yeah but why on earth can’t they just balance wvw and pve seperately? That shouldnt be so freaking hard. if they balance something in pve it is going to affect wvw in a negative way if they don’t consider it 100%

healing signet is so strong that the warrior does not have to sacrifice DPS for it. Sure other professions can get better regen , but they have to sacrifice their damage. This is why it is over powered.

I see your point, but for the avarage warrior, it’s not that noticable. I mean sure, I see warriors do really good in pvp and wvw, but warriors gets whacked around all the time. So even if they dont need to sacrifice dps, they still die. I admit Im not the best warrior around yet, but for me the regen isnt giving me an unbelievable advantage, at best it makes me stay alive long enough to hope to win.

And besides, all classes have advantages and disadvantages. Warrior isnt an elitist class that everyone choose because its OP. If they want certain wins, they choose thieves or Mesmer.

Yeah, you kinda lost me at “nerf warrior even more.”

Care to elaborate?

This is just a rant/opinion spree, so if you don’t care, feel free to ignore it.

I’m really concerned about where this game is heading. I’ve been hearing a lot about how Anet is going to ruin berserker gear entirely, and also how they are going to nerf warrior even more.

First I was told about the crit damage nerf. I hate this idea, and I think it will have a negative impact on the game. But hey thats just a theory. it could turn out to balance things, but I personally don’t think its needed. Using berserker means sacrificing other stats in order to have a good dps. And unless you are really skilled and good with your class, then its freaking noticable. For the avarage player, this is not an issue with high dps.

Second of all, I was told about warriors “healing signet” getting a nerf in the future. To be specific, I was told 8% or more. Wheres the logic in that? It’s not even that good. It makes very little difference in zergs, and when dueling 1 vs 1, or in smaller groups, yeah its useful, but its on pair with every other regeneration signets out there, and elementalists can easily outheal it. Why the biping bip, does it need a nerf? At that point it wont even be worth using. They may as well remove it entirely. Besides, in my personal experience, other classes can have MUCH more regen and healing effeciency than a warrior.

I admit, I am VERY negative about all these “nerfs” and “balance” changes. Many of them are just rumours and not official but I am going to assume they are correct since Anet has a history of the ancient nerf hammer. I enjoy playing my warrior. Most the time Im getting my dumb behind kicked, but i do manage a kill from time to time. if everything I use is getting nerfed, then my favorite class will be useless to me. Of course some players will be able to grow with the changes, but I personally think it’s stupid, and they need to focus on balancing things that are actually broken, such as 24/7 stealth with godmode healing. (yes I suck against thieves, they kick my behind all the time, and yes bro, Im mad)

This is just my personal opinion, and as much as its a cry out to Anet, it’s also a rant. So yes Im exaggerating to get my point out, and yes I havent given it all as much thought as I probably should have. But I thought I needed to get it out, since I like this game as it is, and I would be a little sad to see it break away from what it used to be. Because quite frankly, for each balance they throw out, the less I really feel like playing the game.

-Negative Fanum Deactivated-

I was just talking about this in Lions Arch. Im having trouble finding the curser when Im in combat. Like, if Im in a zerg in wvwvw or during Scarlet event, a lot of the time its too hard to find it in all the chaos, so I cant place my aoe properly, or target the right enemy.

This is REALLY bothering me. Some people suggested an addon, that makes the curser bigger and gives it a frame, but i was told it could get me banned?

Anyone have any suggestions how to fix this? and I dont mean giving me hints like “move the curser to the corner to find it”, because its time consuming, and those 1-2 seconds can get me killed.

PS: Please bear with me, this is the first time Ive really posted something here in the forum, so Im not that familiar with it yet. So if this has been asked before, please know that I did try to search for it. I’m open for constructive criticism though!

You WERE warned. …Or didn’t you read the Terms of Service and the Code of Conduct that you agreed to before entering the game? Ignorance is not a defense.

But they COULD have other “punishments” depending on the severity and type of infraction. Muting your character is an option for verbal abusers. And for repeat offenders I suggest a place all their own. Lump all the three-strikers into one server where they can be the dregs of society to their heart’s content. (Picture the movie “Escape from New York”.) They would be unable to transfer out without permission from ANet). They would be happier amongst their own kind. (And if not, who cares?) WE would certainly be happier without them in our servers. And ANet would still be able to sell them expansions and Gem Store stuff. Win/win/win.

Do you seriously not know what a warning is…? Or are you just trying to kiss their…..nvm.

No I WASN’T warned. Sure I read the ToS, but we mess around with friends and whatnot in game anyways. Everyone in game has tried saying something offensive as some point (or at least the majority) only they havent said it to someone who took advantage of it to get you banned so they could have a laugh.

A WARNING, is them saying “Stop insulting people, or we will have to punish you” or as you said, mute me. 71hours ban for saying an itty bitty word to someone who insulted you int he first place is outrageous. It’s not okay in any way.

Hey lovers.

My suggestion is: Send out a warning for minor offenses, such as a fart, burp or if you bump into an angry person. 71hour bans without warning for such an insignificant thing, is not fair in anyway at all.
In my understanding the “report” option is just an easy way for you to say “goodbye for 3 days” to someone who made the slightest mistake.

I for once would take the hint if I got a warning and consider it for next time.

You wouldn’t have to deal with people being furious about being treated horribly, and you wouldnt have to bother with a bunch of tickets that you stated somewhere, that you’ll just ignore anyways. So everbody wins? So please make sending a warning, a thing!

(And yes Im being serious. I think it’s a problem that we don’t get warned before banished from the game for 3 whole days for something small.)

Have a good one.
