Guild Wars 2

Dear Anet,

please, give us the ability to skip each and every one cutscene in story missions, if we wish to.

I mean, it’s really annoying to watch and hear the same long cutscenes over and over again, especially when trying to do achievements and fail regularly.

The following one is especially annoying, feel free to add yours:
LWS2: Seeds of Truth – Meeting the Asura

Thanks

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Yes, even better. I have 1000s upon 1000s of Spirit Shards. Give us sinks like we have with Karma now.

What karma sink are you thinking about?
I’m a returning player.

Thx

This game isn’t F2P. It’s “buy once to play”. The same goes for the expansion.

Hello,

would it be possible to add the option of exchanging or salvaging Shard of Crystallized Mists Essence and Integrated Fractal Matrix for Fractal Relics or Stabilizing Matrices?

Thanks

Mursaat outfit looks great on my charr.

I was thinking about spending fractal relics on something related to fractals, like infusions.

I wasn’t thinking about another currency converter.

Various lingerie outfits, with and without stockings

Hi,

since the infusion revamp, I’m sitting on thousands of fractal relics without being able to spend them somewhere meaningfully.

I cannot even spend them to upgrade my chars and gear with infusions, anymore.

I suggest you add the ability to purchase Integrated Fractal Matrix with fractal relics alone, at ratio you find appropriate (100/ea, for ex).

Another suggestion is to add the ability to purchase Stabilizing Matrix with fractal relics.

Hi,

what is the cheapest/fastest way of gifting exotic gear to my friend?

I have loads of dungeon tokens, karma, guild commendations, and wvw tokens, but all the exotics I can get by spending the mentioned tokens are account- or soul-bound.

It’s really primitive to have 2 Phalanx Warrior and 2 Druids just so everyone will get the buffs. half of the raid group is concentrated in support. We Should get only 1 Chronomancer Tank, 1 Phalanx Warrior, 1 Druid and 7 DPSers/6 DPSers+1 Revenant.
Why other games can afford it and this game can’t.
This game has a great builds system but the raid support is pretty primitive. In World of Warcraft ya can buff 40 people.

I completely agree.
The current system is silly, to say the least.
Extend buffs to 10 ppl, pls.

Hi,

How do I earn favor in a new guild?
The wiki says I earn favor by completing guild missions, but I must first build the upgrade, which costs favor :S

Ty

Also, make sure your inbox isn’t full?

Imho, backpacks should only be able to be hidden for characters that are “trimmed down” due to Character Model Quality setting, because otherwise, they’re an integral part of a “regular” character looks.

Legendary skins are an expection, I guess, because legendary weapon skins are always displayed.

I didn’t spend thousands of gems on cosmetic gem store items so that I look good only to myself, you do get that? I might sound blunt, but that’s common sense.

You DO understand that the suggested option would totally beat the purpose of the cosmetic part of the gem store and I would be totally kittened off if my gems were actually gone to crud because of that.

Lady Gaga doesn’t dress like that just for her to look special to herself in her bedroom.

It can already be done so your point doesn’t really mean anything here. As said, we can already lower the model quality so you appear as a grey soldier, and the only thing that would be visible still is your backpack.

Lady Gaga also dresses in very crazy attires that only her and her fashion manager comes up with, making it a very unique set. Original.

You running around in the #500 bought cash shop armour and the #600 bought cash shop wings, running around with the same attire as others who bought it isn’t exactly anything fun, or remarkable to look at.

There’s next to no value for your armour or outfit except for yourself.

Well, currently, you still see legendary weapons’ skins. I’m thinking this will extend to legendary armor skins, too (once it comes out), for consistency’s sake.
So, even if playing with “basic” models, you should see all legendary skins (weapons, armor and backpack).

They don’t think you look good so yes, you did spend thousands of gems to look good for yourself, right now, without any slider.

May I get a Fashion Sense slider for me to slide so that you can finally look good, too?

Agree, they look hilariously stupid with their christmas tree shiny stuff. And they look all the same, too. Imagine Gandalf with such backitem talking seriously and fighting with it. People would think if he’s kittened.

That’s not a player’s fault, it’s Anet’s for putting these items into game.

Meehael.8240:

Yes, while at it, give us the option to hide player’s titles, armor, weapon and back item skins.
As a matter of fact, turn all player models into sheep.
That would solve everything.

Sarcasm aside, I don’t think it would be fair to be able to hide back items or armor/weapon skins of ALL other players.
I mean, I worked hard for those legendaries and I didn’t work for them just for me to see them.
This isn’t a single-player game, and that would be against the very definition of an MMO.

If some player in chat annoys me, I can block him, regardless of how hard he works on his troll skills and sentences. Why I shouldn’t be able to do the same with annoying appearances?

Who says you can’t?
Just report him.

Hi,

Out of curiosity I selected deutch as in-game voice, so on the next game launch, the launcher downloaded additional 4GB of data.

I switched back to english voice, but the extra download remained, ofc.

Is it possible to remove the 4GB of deutch voice, preferably without reinstalling the game?

Ty

No, I’m against that option.
It should be the backpack owner’s choice to show or hide it (like it is currently).

Lower graphics settings could hide the backpack, though. No harm there.

I’m against adding the option to be able to hide other player’s backpacks, unless that option hides the active player’s backpack, too.

Add PVE Rune/Sigil unlocking for legendary gear, just like we have in PVP?
For ex., pay 10g for the Superior Sigil of Force. Afterwards, the sigil is unlocked for your whole account, but can be selected only in legendary weapons.

Hi,

how many allies does Phalanx Strength affect? Is it five only?
It isn’t mentioned in the trait description or in the wiki.

Thanks

Attribute Change of ascended back items

Ahhhh, yes, I did that.
Thx

Anyone else got the new 4GB patch a few hours ago?
Can’t find any info on it.

Hi,

Right-clicking on the skill bar to change skills is a neat QoL feature, but it happened to me several times that I right-misclicked on the little arrow above the skill and it didn’t open the skill panel.

Could you add that right-clicking on the little arrow also opens the skill panel?

Thanks

Yep, happened to me two days ago, too.

I’m sorry, 20 rares every two hours is a lousy reward.
Also, the market has already adapted to the current reward system.

You have been told by <player name> to git gud.

Scryeless.1924:

Justine.6351:

No.
That would cause some serious imbalances that the game does NOT need. This is yet another l2p issue.

This is silly. You can spam it for as long as you want and build up days of buffs. Why not just make it easier on the servers and have it all calculated at once?

He was being sarcastic.

Hehe XD

Hi,

I would like to suggest a search or filter functionality to every merchant that has a sell ability.

That way I could easily type “rune” or “sigil” into search and more quickly sell them.

Thanks

Hi,

I think it would be neat to be able to show/hide bank tabs, to be able to display the bank as one big tab, just like inventory bags.

Thanks

I think Nash is the better side of exchange ratio. Getting relics is insanely easy nowadays, so it shouldn’t be as cheap as 50:1 or lower. I’d say minimum 100:1, and I would prefer higher tbh.

It may be easy, but it’s slow. I get about 100 per daily T4 run (including pristine fractal relic conversion). A T4 run can take about an hour.

If you farm, you probably can get about 200-300 per hour.

So that would be 3 stabilizing matrices per hour?

I didn’t take opening fractal encryptions into account since the keys require fractal relics.
Also, if you buy five stacks of Mist Offensive Potion you must pay 40 fractal relics.

On infusion changes:
+5 attribute/AR infusions are much more accessible, however I don’t know what to do with thousands of fractal relics, now.

Can we get a fractal relic sink or the ability to trade them for stabilizing matrices, for ex., since I primarily used them for obtaining +7 versatile simple infusions before the patch?

Thanks

I was thinking more like 25:1 to 50:1

Hi,

I’m swimming in Fractal Relics as of recent patch.
What should I do with thousands of fractal relics now?
I would spend them on +7 Simple Infusions for 150 relics, before.

I would like to suggest the ability of getting Stabilizing Matrices with them.

Thanks

Oh, it must be a bug with the API.

Hi,

I just noticed that there are six different PVE achievements for the daily achievement. There were four so far.
Did Anet increase PVE ach pool and was it with the yesterday’s patch?

Yesterday’s patch has given me hope on this subject
Thanks for the new emotes!
Any chance for other emotes in the OP?

Thanks

Hi,

please let us deconstruct our “+7” and “+6” agony infusions to “+6” and “+5” infusions, primarily because the infusions used to get the attribute agony infusions (mighty, malign…) from INFUZ-5959 are 3x “+5” agony infusion and 10 stabilizing matrices.

Ty

Hi,

these are my observations, correct me if I’m wrong:

• it seems to me that a Mighty Infusion (+5 power, +7 AR) is much easier and cheaper to get! Before the patch, a mighty infusion cost about 100g, while the Versatile Mighty Infusion cost about 350g! (btw, it doesn’t seem fair to players who crafted those infusions before the patch)
• it is possible to put a mighty infusion in armor. Previously, you had to put a versatile mighty infusion
• you can put agony infusions in armor and weapons (for ex. +1 agony infusion)
• you can no longer buy +5 versatile infusion for 75 fractal relics and upgrade it to a +7 versatile infusion for another 75 fractal relics
• amulets are used exlusively for utility/enriched infusions

However, Anet said in the patch notes that it is a work in progress, quote “Finally, after making these changes to the Infusion system, we had some loose ends that needed to be tied up.”

Also, as expected, the price of Stabilizing Matrix has increased as of yesterday.

In your case, if all you see are parties that track statistics, you would create a party that doesn’t track statistics and advertise it like that. Your party would be filled in a matter of seconds!

Hi,

I would like to suggest something along the following party tags when broadcasting a party in the LFG for dungeons/fractals/raids:

• Learning
• Casual
• Experienced
• Hardcore

These would suggest desired party composition and experience level of players. It would label the party’s mode of play.

Make them also have a visual representation, similar to language flag tag.

Imho, that would save a lot of text in the party description.
I understand that there could be a difficulty for some party owners to determine if they are experienced or hardcore, but these tags would help in most cases, nevertheless.
Maybe color the Experienced tag with exotic color (gold) and Hardcore tag with ascended color (pink), just to give a hint of which gear is expected for a specific tag?

What do you guys think?

Thanks

It would be great to see statistics in PVE, similar to what we see in PVP after a game, but for every party/squad member.

I’m up for it. Having this kind of a benchmark makes we want to test my skills and improve.

Our guild does raids on a regular basis, and sometimes we’re baffled on how does a boss fail so miserably, but succeeds gloriously other times. With no way of telling each member’s performance and what to suggest to improve it.

Maybe add a tag to party/squad saying “Tracking Statistics”, which is clearly visible in the LFG. You can toggle the tag only at party creation, not afterwards. If you want to toggle the tag afterwards, you must disband the whole party first, toggle that tag and then post lfg once again.

This way you voluntary join parties that track statistics. If you don’t like being tracked you don’t join these kind of parties.

What do you guys think?

Yes, for Twilight just forge the precursor with the usual pre-hot gifts. Get the gift of battle via wvw reward track.
No need to “collect” the precursor.

Sarie.1630:

It would be wise to not tie achievement points into getting a certain piece of loot. I think that’s what sparks a lot of the ill feeling.

I like the feeling of being impressed when I see a player running around wielding a rare skin. I don’t like that feeling to quickly turn into sorrow or jealousy because it’s a skin I require to unlock for an achievement; an achievement I’m never likely to complete because of the value placed on that particular skin unlock.

I don’t think many “prestige” skins currently exist in the game that aren’t a requirement for some kind of collection or achievement… which is a shame. I would defintely be in favour of having skins drop in the game which are subject to harsh RNG but are only there to impress.

My thoughts exactly.
Also, less crafting!

Triggering a rally by killing something is the most silly mechanic, imho.
