Guild Wars 2

3 people AFK in tournaments, maybe you should atleast make it against some kind of rule and punish people that ruin the competive scene.

PvP still a fail after over a year

The cultural armor that you can buy for 60k glory and 60gold is it just for PvP?

I know that they plan on that we can use pvp gear in pve but that will be in upcoming “months”.

Anyone know?

Same happened to me but with Evon, i sent a ticket but i doubt we will get the achievment…Kinda annoying when i stayed up way to many hours to complete it :P

Arenanet it took you less than an hour to merge my thread with this one, but getting your point of view on this wont happend or what?

And ill say it once again, reward the GW1 player aslong as it wont interfer with the achievment point leaderboard, i never said that they dont deserve to get rewarded…

SvenskNavi.9378:

This is a pointless thread. Having 500 achievement points that you can’t get isn’t something to complain about. The rewards aren’t great enough for it to be a huge deal. so they might get one more weapon skin and some gold before you. Who cares!? No one is taking anything away from you.

Read before you speak, will make you look less dumb.

It’s not about them getting rewarded, give them a legendary and a house on the moon i do not care, but this is messing up my precious leaderboard (YES some people actually care about it).

Clobimon.9652:

Putting aside the point that achievement point competing is silly. At least to the level of complaining about it. People that didn’t play GW don’t seem to understand what the HoM is truly for and the reasons for it. Those that were GW players for a long time may still consider the skins and X00 points less than expected.

I’d put in several thousand hours into GW by the time just its third birthday was coming up. The game was still fresh, alive and we had the new campaigns every six months to look forward to. Then they sprang the news of GW2 and just one last expansion/campaign to come (Eye of the North with the Hall of Monuments). Once EotN was out for a while a lot of people stopped playing knowing that was the last major addition. Others continued to work on HoM stuff. So now they have players like myself with +5000 hours invested in a youngish game that they decided to put on ‘support status’ to create a new game. They told us from the announcement og GW2 that we would not be able to port characters or gold and items. Consolation for us was the HoM and many played many hours so we would earn the rewards. In tbe end, while some of the skins are nice, they’re not as nice as a lot of new stuff so few are used. The increase in achievement points is nice of them but I doubt many that maxed out HoM will say it’s everything they hoped for or expected. Had those complaining been there through it all they wouldn’t be either.

Thanks for a good answer.

It’s not like im mad at them for rewarding GW1 players but i think that achievment points are the wrong kind of award since it ruins the leaderboard.

And to everyone saying that the leaderboard is a joke, that’s just the worst argument ever. Just because you can’t understand it doesnt mean u have to insult it.

Old dailies can not be compared to Hall of monuments since old dailies are still apart of THIS game and not an old one. I missed alot of points on the old dailies and on old living stories, but it doesnt bother me since it is still something that happened in the game i bought.

Mujen.5287:

You do know that you can buy GW1 and get all those achievement points if you want to. Just be warned, it’s not easy and it’s tedious.

If i wanted to play GW1 i would have bought it and not GW2, im not saying that it was easy im saying that the rewards you guys get shouldnt affect the leaderboards in the way it does now.

Vol.5241:

What’s to discuss? Nothing.

What they were thinking when they give some people a boost of 500 points from something they did in a totally different game, perhaps?
This is like saying “Hey you guys won the football tournament last year so you get to start with 1 goal every match” .
Unacceptable in my eyes, thats why i want to see their point of view…

Just looked through the last month in “Dev tracker” without finding any answer to the other threads about the achievment reward increase in Hall of Monuments.

Kinda made me frustrated since i’ve always felt like Arenanet looks what we have to say and discuss with us to give us their point of view.

I’m gonna start by saying that i’m NOT against rewarding people for what they did in GW1.
I’ve not read excactly what they get but i know that they have access to some weapon and armor skins, ranger pets and awesome titles already, this is not a problem at all for me.

The problem i find is when you add the possibility of giving them an advantage of 500 points.
This is totally messing up the competition of achievment points, 500 points is ALOT especially at the higher points where you have to grind alot for a few points.
Personally i lost a couple of hundreds ranks because of a game i didnt play earlier.

For me the Achievment point leaderboards is a competition just like the pvp leaderboards, so for me this is as bad as giving people that played GW1 extra rating in TPvP would be for the people competing in that leaderboard.

The result of this in my guild and friends outside the guild has been that some people no longer wants to make their dailies since they feel cheated on, some even dont see any reason to logg in anymore.

Reward them, WITHOUT messing up our leaderboard! And i hope to see an answer from Anet, if not here in some other thread about this issue…

Ya thanks alot arenanet, you totally ruined the competive aspect of achievment points, been doing every daily and fighting for the other achievments aswell for quite many weeks now to climb the ranks and now i get pushed back 400ranks (from 34 to 47 on my server).
Altough i dont think HoM shouldn’t give any points just the titles i can accept a few points but 500points is just way to much for something that isn’t even in the game.

And no im not mad because you guys get gold and other bonuses, im mad because it now feel kinda pointless to try and catch up 500 points on the leaderboards.

Robert Hrouda.1327:

We’re trying to build content for everyone, so everyone can be excited about something with our release.

Good feedback would be telling us about the things you didn’t like about it, and the things you did like about it. A nebulous statement of “It sucks” isn’t constructive. If you want to actually see change, you need to give clear feedback so we as developers can talk with each other about things we could change for next time. Whether its an activity, a dungeon, a boss, etc, giving us feedback about why something didn’t sit well with you is far more valuable than just telling us something didn’t sit well with you.

Any content coming up for the players that like challenges?
Would be really cool with some hard stuff that separate the pros from the noobs. Maybe some cool armor skins? Achievments? Titles? Come on i havnt had a challenge since halloween, im getting restless by just logging in making dailies and then standing in Lions Arch being bored.

Sucks to get 10laurels behind the people who at first didnt even care for the monthly pvp, hope we get 10laurels aswell or atleast that they rollback the people who exploited this so they dont get a huge advantage in laurels…

So i made the monthly pvp quite early this month and now you give 10 laurels to people who saved it/didnt care for it earlier for completing it…kinda unfair

So Arbetarklassen[SEAK] struggled with some bugs with guild bounty and guild trek today!

Guild bounty
One of our 6 targets the new robot “2-mult” was bugged when we found him, at first we couldn’t start the event with him and later when another guild started him we didnt get him completed and failed with the entire mission.

Guild trek
Spectrehaunt socket – Wassa’s terrace – trader’s stash – Sharkhollows edge, these 4 points wasnt at the place they should be. We looked everywhere nearby the point they should been at and looked at dulfy but they were nowhere to be found.

Quite annoying when you spend lots of gold to buy influence to get the merits to get the guild missions fast and when you get them bugs won’t let you get the merits to progress.
