I had a whole huge reply written up but somehow got erased by having to relogin.

Tldr version was its inquest, skritt, or the reactors maintainers. Asura always seem to have bad results when their experimemts go wrong. Not super exciting when you think about possibilities.

Size wise….crystal desert can hold thousands of thumanovas. The gods are gone and id kinda like some kind of storyline based with them since theres no real presence except the temples. Not to mention crystal desert would hopefully be an upcoming new zone even outside the fractal.

Is it a coincidence that Kiel is running for the seat of the Captain Counselor she let be assassinated? Either she’s incompetent or evil.

Gnashblade is a cunning businessman that can realpolitik his way through the Captain’s Counsel. He’s by far the superior candidate.

I can’t agree I more, I mean Gnashblade could buy the vote at any time but he doesn’t because he has integrity unlike that incompetent wannabe caption who lets face it killed the old counselor member for her own gain and covered up her own blunder by finding the nearest pirate and blaming it on her.

You know, i also cant help but to think you guys already knew which direction you were going but not everyone agreed. To stop the whining amongst all anet, colin made you guys dev a voting storyline lol. Admit thats partially true. Couldnt just compromise and now the whole gw2 community is divided. :p heres to a better year regardless!

So kiel only cares about lions arch and her people and maybe just maybe the minority of other races there. Evon doesnt care who you are if you earn his trust.

Flame legion supporter? I bet kiel is a decendant, or at the very least, working for someone whos a descendant of Adelburn. Two sides of the same coin i say.

Id vote for someone who knows the people rather than just dealing with the criminal element of the populace.

I have all the gw1 series and never really bothered to finish up my 50 points. Im just glad i got something in this game for continuing support of it. I also bought the collectors edition on preorder so i have a few things that not all of you have? I paod for it but im not saying its p2w, but its kinda like that dragon cake recipe. Those who supported anet by buying rich coffers were retroactively rewarded. Maybe unfair to some but i could care less. Same could be said for getting a “bonus” at your job when others didnt based on work/effort put forth.

Get your points, ill get mine and we’ll all get the rewards we earnedand worked towards. Some folks will just have the rewards quicker than you. Someone will also always either have it worse or better than you.

Cant wait to see the complaining if they implement rng birthday gifts haha.

T6 Dust Crisis

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Its not just gifts and legendary gear that uses dust. There’s also forge recipe’s that give out exos and require a lot. Most specifically the Triforge amulet. I gave up and just bought the laurel one with same stats. I wanted the triforge but with 750 dust needed for the three component amulets is just ridiculous. I don’t mind the rates so much as to how much it climbed due to the rates.

I read back trying to find anything on xtal dust being talked about. Someone stated it was near 5s or so back in December. It needs to be lowered so that folks will want to promote silk or leather or even mithril to ori using the dust. It will suck up a lot of the extra mats and actually make it better in the long run. That’s what I believe though.

Point is though is its not just for legendary stuff.

What I don’t miss, which took them a long time to fix, was Alessia’s AI and just overall hench AI. It took two more expansions to get Heroes released and took off from there. I couldn’t solo Factions with hench, but was a breeze with heroes and customizable everything.

I also miss the vast amounts of minions you could summon, but glad they don’t start dying the moment you raise them haha.

I miss how you could swap weapons between chars until you “customized” them so it soulbound it.

I also kinda miss the fact you can’t go back and replay missions like you could in gw1. As well as the bonuses associated with them if you completed certain discoverable tasks or speed cleared it.

Ive only had one person get in my way of doing it, but instead of being an kitten I just moved on. I had been out in queensdale hunting down things while I waited for the shadow swamp creature. (Oh and I’m greatly enjoying all the new folks and giving them the 5 slot bags that drop from vets or others there. Granted I think humans are still the largest group of selected characters just like in August).

I’m not the kind of person to complain, hell, the only time anyone’s been rude to me was when I asked about the halloween doors being stuck open. Honestly, I was so new to everything like a lot of folks still were and just thought people kept opening them. Guy said he’d report me if I kept talking about it just because he knew he was exploiting it and didn’t want to loose his loot.

Its sad all these dailies have changed the behavior of folks. The only thing I’ve done to change it is when folks ask if they can go jump off a cliff for the rez daily (in LA), I tell them to go north or south of it and there’s plenty of NPC’s to rez as a way to actually complete renown hearts. I even link a few WP’s just for easier progression for them. I know it seems easier to jump off and die and rez. For me, i’d rather go out into pve and kill a few things on the way and hope I get a couple rares while doing so from A to B.

Statue Back in Lion's Arch?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Maybe they’ll have plans to errect another statue when the story line evolves a bit more. Considering the ancient karka is sitting in a lava pit that opened up at its defeat, maybe primordius will make a showing.

Point is, there’s need for more story lore to eventually build something to memorialize it. Maybe even a special graveyard for those pact warriors who died in the story missions. :P

Elite skills feel too much like ultimates

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

I second the idea to choose to leave out the elite skill for utility slot skill.

They could at least add a few underwater elites so you actually have more than just one to pick from.

Honestly, i’m not sure if I’d want (but would be nice to add skill back to game) 100’s of skills available. What would be nice is at least being able to pick a few different skills based on the type of weapon set you had. That way you could still have a varying skill set for different folks of the same profession.

(I really wonder how often the devs look into things like this as it really feels like just talking to thin air lol)

Very small quaggan backpack on Asura- could it be sized up?

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Honestly, have you even seen how small weapons are on asura? It almost makes me sad that a pistol I could buy on an asura can barely been seen. Yet on other larger races, its more visable.

Its the same thing w/ the backpack. Unless they size up the ratio of how big things are for asuran, I doubt they’ll fix it for just the quag.

Patch Notes?

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Man some of you are downright insane. It would almost be funny if it wasn’t so sad and pathetic.

Things change. If Q&A finds an exploit 10 minutes before the patch then they don’t deploy that part of the patch. If something that was supposed to be fixed is somehow broken in another way they pull that part of the patch. It really isn’t rocket science here, heck it isn’t even high school science.

This. Its being worked on live and probably runs similar to a newspaper where theres a deadline and worked on til the last minute. Hell im even glad they update the game so often bc i dont remember gw1 having so much new content without an expasnsion.

Incoming Mounts??

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Hello, I’m here to crush your dreams.

There will be no mounts coming with the Flame and Frost story arc.

Also, to address further speculation we’ve seen about the concept art for Flame and Frost (and what it may portend): there will be no Cantha and no dragons coming with the Flame and Frost story arc, either.

Thank you.

But you haven’t ruled out unicorns.

ANET SAYS WE’RE GETTING UNICORNS!

This is why I enjoy reading the forums. I’m just glad the ANet community has a sense of humor to post meme’s. That means they aren’t just robots.

For all those who want a mount, maybe they’ll give speed boosts for WvW only (since you have to buy WP’s) eventually if its added in the suggestion forum. Could care less for pve enviro but for those that whine….

This would be great so its easy to find folks in huge maps like orr or even gendarren or lornars pass. Not sure if it would spread the entire map or just localized like node icons on minimap.

Would be nice for entire zone map to see green dots. Also..alot easier to catch boys anet! If we see folks skipping around to nodes alot easier to report.

Its been so long so I’m kinda fuzzy on the lore between now and prophecies, but it would be nice if we could get a fractal showing the middle time thats between the two games. Maybe why the gods aren’t as focused on/worshipped much anymore?

Also maybe play as a Mursaat or take some folks to the bloodstone?!

When are the Tengu being released?

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Now not sure what expansion theyd be released in, if any, but it would be nice.

Before it was human with new profession. Now its racial+profession. So id assume theyd port the races traveling to cantha(if they stay in same sequence of continents) witha new profession but maybe that new prof will be tied to these birds. Just have to wait it out.

Btw theres a few other spots that are blocked off in travel but look to be accessable otherwise. Plenty of map space (crystal desert!!!) to add more before a boxed expansion so who knows. Its a whole new bag of content updates and im excited as long as it can stay populated more than southsun has.

Wintersday - general feedback

HunterFox.2578

Wouldve been nice to see other skins besides just a hammer for a candy cane skin. Was really looking foward to having a sword or for gw1 vets a gingerbread focus and other items that made the winter holidays nostalgic. Vets could show off their skins and remember times past(heirloom item passed down from our previous chars ) and new folks would have the same fun by killing the undead risen while making them smell minty fresh.

Really enjoyed the winter pvp game. Wished i had played that more as it was reAlly rewarding to take folks down you normally wouldnt be able to based on profession.

Didnt really bother with the jumping puzzle as after a few tries it wasnt really my thing. Regular everyday ones arent based with having to stay moving due to puzzle deteriorating behind you(i know a few have things similar like the one in metrica but it doesnt make you keep moving 100%).

Not that im a huge crafting fan/user but ibelieve the devs need to QA the recipes they release so things dont happen that can be exploited so long without fixing (the stuck open haunted doors were fixed within hours. I know it was first event and there was probably a lot of supervison on that).

The wooden skins just plain out suck as far as looks. Maybe im partial to wanting those candy cane ones but still.

What kinds of things do you miss from GW 1?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

Everything in here is pretty much what i miss as well. Never really did pvp stuff much except a few factions fights with multiple teams of 8 folks (kinda a lan party with friends).

I do remember that initially the game was a lot harder due to Alesia being such a kitten with Her healing AI. When factions came out, i had to just stick to my alts in prophecies because i couldnt get past certain missions. (it was nice that you HAD to do the mission before you could progress further in game). Once nightfall came out and heroes were introduced i wentback through factions/cantha and beatthe campaign. The afflicted are probably just as bad as risen imo.

So with expansions i know there will be added mechanics and hopefully make it a better gameplay exp.

Also, maybe theyll add a better set of skills to choose from for weapon sets(warrior interupts and bleeds).

Not sure what else to say as its already been stated but just to reinforce it….i loved the skill hunts for elites!

Its all a chance, i tossed in a bunch of low level(50-70ish) karma trinkets and a green 80 dagger and got a 80 rare shortbow. Havent gotten any exos or legends yet but illkeep trying bc ill never just outright buy one.

Hopefully theyll implement that other route to get one soon.

We tried our best to leave in some surprise without leaving the majority of players feeling lost and unaware of what activities are available for Wintersday (as was very much the case with Halloween). There’s one major missing piece of information that I’m sort of surprised no one has taken note of, which is exactly what toys the toymaker will be making.

Ok so each race has a toy and by their powers combined, Captain Planet shows up to rid Orr of the pollution that is the risen hahahah. Its either that, or we create a creature and battle it out like godzilla against the dragons XD!

I have been noticing the (new?) bonus chance of harvesting nodes, especially veggies. Have gotten a few extra ori amd ancient wood chances. Not nearly as much as onion or carrots though

Not any extra dye but rather an increase ever so slightly better than after the “accidental increase” nerf. Maybe loot drops will be better soon too with the wintersday patch! /candycanewishes

For those of you who complained about Not being able to attend: thats life, youre probably adults so act like it. Its a game so you lost out this time. There will be others.

I feel sorry for anyone who did attempt it and something happened outside of you closing the game. I hope anet can get things in order soon.

Also, i was never given a precursor on either account my wife and I had. We only got named exos. Those who think anet gave out precursors to everyone are just mad they didnt get one.

I had fun and loved getting my rewards and hope those that actuLly participated get something worth the effort after being dc’ed.

Making Elites truly elite.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: HunterFox.2578

HunterFox.2578

I especially dont like the lack of underwater skills myself. For the higher skill when fighting mobs at a much larger xyz axis than on ground, elites should have a greater impact.

Not sure of racials or profession specifics, but my asuran theif only has basilisk venom as an underwater elite. It lasts for like 1 second, or maybe 1.5. The problem i have with that is its supposed to somewhat mimick the basilisk’s attack. When they attack you it turns you to stone for at least 3 or so seconds. Maybe theyll increase the duration of stone condition later.

Still would be nice to make elites better or…:0 make us go hunt skills :p that we want which could also help with keeping every area populated more often than not.

Ive had ok drops and maybe about 10 un id dyes between a few chars. What i dont like is that there should be specific drops from champs like eveyone else has said. I shouldnt get an 80 rare from a lvl 4 mob in starter zone on my 80. I was just trying to farm some lower level mats/bag of supplies for my wife. Honestly, the drops should always be level specific to the zone. That way i dont have to try and save up and slavage everything when im leveling a char just to get mats.

They said as long as youre in a 55+ zone youd get your own level of items. Im getting more 70+ level items and less lower ones. Id like to build up my jute scraps again as id rather take the time farming them than buying on TP. I dont want my wife to feel like its impossible to craft things as she only plays on the weekend.

All id like to see honestly is maybe an increase in gold drops from mobs like gw1, specific loot from specific vets or champs (to maybe populate other mid level areas) but not guaranteed but had a chance(like the green rares from gw1), lower diminishing returns as you(anet) have banned a good bit of the bots, give more incentive to go back to zones for continued population of low areas, and ill find some more to think of later.
