Guild Wars 2

Its just living world season 3

If this gets added ever I lose access to things I already paid for, I get this is a business and everything but PR is important as well and doing this would completely ruin it and I would definitely demand my money back from feeling scammed

Seriously there is no winning in these situations and it should just die, if its made casual people will call it boring yet if its made hardcore people moan and complain about it

They can just be ready for you and hit that steal to get onto you

Mushroom king on that bridge coming to give you a dodge check

If you paid money just to get the elite specs, that is some really POOR money management

Sharona.1064:

Yes… People should have the choice.

There is a choice though, you want the elite spec you do the work for it

Good thing I’m not skipping school for the day tomorrow

Well what ever the reason is you join in mm pvp knowing full well you may be up against something you wont like and that leaves no excuse to leave. They need to add a system like they got in dota where if you leave matches you get put in the punishment queue

Alot of interesting places seem to be going to waste in a sense of design for dueling, like that arena place in the charrs city I believe

Okay so I keep getting that one leaver and for me and my team that can really ruin us, and it seems like there is nothing stopping people from leaving games or something because this is starting to become bs

I just hope the staff isnt a boring ranged weapon

It’s either going to be a random shadow-magic spewstick, a’la Necrostaff, or it’s going to be a Tempest-level abortion that either tries and utterly fails to replace the Sword/* sets, or ArenaNet goes bonkers and obsoletes the Sword sets.

Why people think they’re going to give the Thief 5s knocks or heavy counterattack-blocks or anything else they always associate with staff ON THE INITIATIVE SYSTEM is beyond my comprehension. Initiative imposes hard limits on the amount of control a Thief can get on a weapon set, and the S/P set pretty much hits that limit.

They’re not going to give people Initiative-spammable knocks on staff. PvP players already scream like banshees over the Thief actually having any sort of advantage in combat – give them knocks on top of everything else, and the PvP side will pretty much just universally quit. I wouldn’t miss those guys, but ArenaNet would, so give it up.

They’re not going to remove the Initiative system so they can put the hard controls everyone wants on Staff on it – anyone who thinks so is dumber than Dinky. That’d force them to redesign every other Thief weapon in the game, as well as several of the Thief’s traits.

There’s nothing left for Staff to do. I just hope the rest of the spec is interesting enough to give me some new options to experiment with on the typical S/P set. Le sigh.

Maybe the initiative system would get worked on similar to how the warriors system got remade

With a stick!
Bwahahaha. XD

I wonder if more people will be upset over thief-stick than Dargonhurrdurr.

Though now I’m curious what the spec will be, since Sniper is off the table.

to be honest, it was pretty apparent that we were getting staff for a while. and staff’s not a bad weapon – if they do the skills/traits/mechanic right, it could be incredible.

really what matters is the details, which we’ll be seeing later this week

(plus, while dragonhunter didn’t make sense with guardian mechanically or thematically, staff thief certainly makes sense thematically)

Heh, don’t mind my teasing. I’m mostly prodding at all the kittenhurt over the staff datamining. Sniper sounded cool, but I’m hoping for Cat Burglar (so I can play yet another Charr, haw!), though I heard the rumor of Daredevil? That sounds entertaining.

I just hope the staff isnt a boring ranged weapon

The way I see it if someone works kitten at something that is difficult then they deserve a exclusive item for it.

Nah, I just think I should be paying the same price as anyone else. Not spending twice as much for people that haven’t been around for the long haul.

I’m saying they can wipe all of my stuff off my account. I know exactly what to do to get it all back, they haven’t given me anything through the years to make my account special anyways lol

You are getting HoT for the same price as everyone else, all the Veterans as you call us either paid $50, $70 or $100 for the expansion…on top of the $50 or what ever we paid for the original game 3 years ago. You’re not any more special than any other veteran, we all get the same deal. As for saying it’s been the same content for the past 3 years, obviously you skipped LW Season 1 and didn’t play any of LW Season 2 or Southsun Cove, DryTop and Silverwastes….you completely ignored those areas and stayed within the base game.

I still dont understand how people use the LW seasons and things in the game as a reason to have to pay the 50 bucks because in the end didnt you have to pay for the LW seasons?

ANet gave all Vet players a free character slot. New players don’t get that.

Vet players got LS Season 1, LS Season 2, Tons of Events, Exclusive items, etc.
This is content that new comers will never have the chance to experience.

You paid at $50 for 3 years worth of free content. What other game has given you close to the same value?

Wish you people would stop the QQ. Also, why are you created a thread about this when it has been hashed out for months already on these forums.

If you don’t think you received $50 worth of value in the past 3 years and don’t think the $50 for the expansion will give you another 3 years of value, then don’t buy the expansion and move onto another game. Just quit clogging up the forums with the same stupid topic.

Im not a vet of the game but to me this is the poorest excuse as to why you pay full price instead of a discounted one, as last time I check unless I am wrong you pay for the LS seasons and alot of the events ARE what you paid for.

Idk, could be wrong but the picture of the thief with what looks like a staff could possibly not be a staff at all, maybe him going about while holding the rifle. Idk I could be wrong

Or… better yet… It’s a stolen weapon…!

New class mechanic:

Steal now “steals” (copies) the weapon of whom you stole it from. So if you stole it off of a ele with a staff, you get a staff with thief staff skills, stole a great sword you get great sword skills.

But something like that would only be implemented in year 2059, considering how many skills they would have to make.

That would make for some awesome gameplay, tbh I likethat more than a rifle , give me the staff and the chance to make the enemies toys hurt them, but if its a rifle that would be fine anyways

Idk, could be wrong but the picture of the thief with what looks like a staff could possibly not be a staff at all, maybe him going about while holding the rifle. Idk I could be wrong

I thought each class was getting a different weapon with their specialization, so ranger has been confirmed to getting staff so wouldn’t thief get something else?

Why is it that in dungeons people only want level 80s in them? I have seen this multiple times and I am wanting to know what every else has to say about it.
