Guild Wars 2

Hello there gentlemen and lady thieves alike.

I may be returning to the game after a big Hiatus.
I quit the game after the ascended gear fiasco (and the devs doing a 180 from development and advertising). Like it did to many, left a bad taste in my mouth everytime I logged in. Since then I have been getting my fix in PS2.

To those who know Varknyn, I was the leader, one of the major wvwvw thief only guild, “The Assassin Clan” [TAC], and when I quit I am sure everyone went their separate ways.
I have an itch for the devastation we used to cause no matter the server we were present on. Last time it was Ehmry Bay.

If I return to the game, I am certainly not looking to just start the guild back up again, especially when I don’t know for how long I will be playing, and the players of the guild do not need an unstable GM.
If any old TAC members still play and are reading this, please if it is not too much trouble, bring me up to speed on what server you play on, how it is in wvwvw, and if you play with any other TAC members.

If you are reading this and have no idea what I am blabbering on about, perhaps you can bring me up to speed on how the ascended gear (crap :P) has evolved in these past few months. As well as if you or someone you know already has a thief only wvwvw guild going.

Thank You.

Here’s a thought. Decrease the stat increase slightly, simply adjust the % based stat to be equal (7% instead of 10) and remove stats from the infusions. 10% crit damage instead of 7% is a massive increase. You could even make it 8% for the hsmsters in all of us.

Now you have gear that is only slightly better. Depending on whether your build needs runes, Exotic armor is only slightly less and people will notice little difference. At the same time you have your little treadmill for the hamsters and kept your horizontal progression.

No and No,

You can’t compromise, then they would be getting away with false advertising.
Its either only cosmetic or they lose players/ never get gems from a large portion till it becomes such. Simple, that is the Guild Wars way, not the Warcraft way which they think they can curveball this into and get away with it

No

but what can you do.

Contact a lawyer and see if you can file a false advertising complaint.

And if you can, what does that solve?

Depends on how strong the consumer protection laws are wherever he files it. If it causes any money to be taken from ANET, they might rethink this whole thing, especially when other people hear of it and repeat the claim.

Class Action anyone? Unemployment lines would start to fill up with “ex”-Anet employees

Everyone should just boycott all gem buying, and anything to do with gems. This is a F2P game, the revenue from key purchasing is only trickling now, it is mainly the shop. If you cut this away they will have to answer to the share holders/execs as to why the profits were down. Then it will be clear they actually have to listen.

Nothing but good times fighting TAC, you guys are welcome back on Maguuma anytime.
Everytime we attack a keep gate, I am expecting to see that one thief of yours to caltrop our entire group over… and over, so much I find myself standing further back and keeping marks at my feet lol

Good fights always to be had
