Guild Wars 2

yes, change them to male version.

or change the boobplate more squareshaped, like tube tank tops? It will actually look flat on asura/charr, still feminine but not particularly highlighting The Holy Existence of Boobs.

hey, these are really great. I love that there’s a lot of environments showing and the athmosphere they show. You’ve put a lot of thought on composition and light/dark and it really shows.

I hope you don’t mind a little bit of critique though… I notice you use black/grey for shadows, but in case the object is brown, you could try using a more saturated darker color of the object instead of desaturated gray/black. : )

I hope you add more soon !

Would be better if the pvp players could sell them in-game, it’s kinda silly you can only get them via winning pvp, being lucky in lottery or buying from german ebay (because anet gave them free for people who visited some con of theirs).

Also learning how to pvp is kinda pointless for this one, ‘cause you need a good team too so in reality it means you need to get really serious about pvp as you’re against people who are too, find a guild/team, practice daily before it starts and then pray heavens you don’t get matched with top tier parties, since they wrote you need to win the matches… so likely if you lose, it’ll bring your points down. The way I read that is that if your team is bad, you’re screwed.

I dunno… I feel ashamed becouse maby I am one of these evil players…
‘A theif using the same skill over and over again isn’t that good’.
‘Zerging won’t win you this battle’

blocked……. : D

… just kidding. : P Those sound pretty neutral to me. The first one is a bit on the grey line, but eh, nothing that bad imo. And a little jabbing here and there kinda fits pvp, it’s just that some people go on full rage kitten or just simply throw personal insults to make themselves feel better. But in general it’s still good to keep in mind insulting others might come haunt you later on in one form or another.

Before my block list just consisted gold sellers and am looking to expand it now and wondering if there’s things to beware of (like will I know if I’ve blocked the person in LFG?)

Afaik:
LFG-Tool won’t show you groups with people from your ignore. So you can’t join their groups via lfg. But they will see your lfgs and can still join your group, you have to votekick them.

After I realized it is usefull to know why someone is on my ignorelist, I recommend making notes. Everyone on my ignore gets a nickname now, for example:
“SPVP “insult quote”"
“WvW teleport cheater”
“Dungeon X Guild Y ragequitter”
If someone got a nickname which is obviously from your ignore you can react (kick him, leave group etc.). Since you don’t see peoples nicknames in PVP you often won’t realize someone is in your/enemy team who is on your ignorelist.

Matchmaking will keep putting you into groups with players from your ignore. So it’s possible to get five matches in a row with someone you already blocked…

That’s really good info and suggestion, thanks! I’ll remember to nickname them, will make things easier. : )
It’s a bit of shame we don’t have different types of blocking, in most of these cases I wouldn’t mind doing a dungeon (it seems a lot of pvp folks turn into sheep in pve) and vice versa for some other game types. I used to just turn off /say /team /map chats in wvw and pvp, but in general it’s kinda bad for the people who are not kittens and try to make teams work.

stale.9785:

Wow, upset because pvpers are toxic – which is rather what pvp is known for, universally.

I feel for you, OP, but only a bit. It’s like someone who got burnt because they decided to use their privates to test if the water is boiling yet.

FWIW,

-there appears to be no upper limit on the block list.
-no, there is no indication that the group you’re about to join has someone on your block list – you have to cross reference.

Thanks for the answers!
A little sad about the LFG not showing blocked people though. Could have turned it off for the dungeon.

And not upset, just tired, which tends to happen if you constantly see negativity around you? Atleast I like to think that’s a normal human reaction. And it’s not just pvp, but wvw, dungeons and map chats at bosses. Expect maybe dungeons, I personally kinda like LFG rage folks. P:

Azure Prower: yes, just sorta asking these questions, ‘cause I’m getting to the habit of blocking people. P: Before my block list just consisted gold sellers and am looking to expand it now and wondering if there’s things to beware of (like will I know if I’ve blocked the person in LFG?)

DaWombat: yeah, at some point they are just hilarious with all the raging. : D I’ve been pretty ok with them for few years without much care, but at some point it just gets tiring and boring, same old stuff going on year after year, with the same underlying reasons that they hide their weakness of character with.

The questions: if I block people can I see it on LFG if they’re on my blocked list? Do I need to check their names while in party? Have you had any problems with blocking people? (like doing a dungeon together with one, missing out on the chat and ending up with wipes etc?)
Is there just a cap on how many people you can block? ‘cause I’m pretty sure my block list will have thousands in less than a year.

So I was today at pvp learning on how to Ele, when this chick starts telling people to use their brains and later on is like “lame ele/mesmer”. Nothing bad, but I’m just done with people like this.

I’ve tried to look at these people like they are just blowing off steam, had a bad day, want others to carry their own weight like they did, they’re just 13 year old or in some cases try to teach others and have become bitter because they feel no one hears them. Or just all of above.
But why would I need to deal with their problems when I don’t even know them? Why do I need to give them the benefit of doubt that they mean well or have a reason behind it? Why do I need to do their parent’s work and explain basic manners? I’m not their parent, therapist or emotional punching bag. I’m just a person playing the game, for fun.

And I get that people are like this, it’s basic human thing, it’s just words and I’ve been pretty non-caring so far, but I’m just done and I’ll just block anyone from now on who shows this behavior.

For people that haven’t seen any toxic mentality…
Last week alone, on storymodes AC and CM that stated “storymode” on LFG. I have seen a guy kicked with 300ap because his ap was too low. One time a newbie was kicked from AC last boss because he didn’t waypoint to last boss fast enough (tried to run instead, died and kicked – we had no verbal fights before). Today at CM storymode a 3k ap guy decided he wants everyone to stack at corner at the point where you throw water on the drunk norn… he proceeded to just stand there for the rest of the fight and refused to “help” us until the boss had like 10% hp. Then proceeded to call us all noobs and idiots that can’t read.

And these are JUST the storymodes.

Usually this stuff doesn’t happen when I’m on my main acc (15k AP), but when I’m on my 2nd acc (1k ap), it seems to happen more.

Can we please rework the exp reward from storymodes? The storymodes are terrible exp, at lvl 50 I get a little over 1 level from doing 3 storymodes (AC, CM, TA). They’re each more like 30-40% or something. It’d make more sense if gave 1 level Each (I think exp mode lvl can stay as it is – people do those for the tokens anyways).

Also would love to see fractal ascended rings being able to mystic forge or salvaged to asc materials too.

I love the payment declaration, but not so sure about the point system. It’s aimed completely towards dungeon selling and could have some problems with normal parties. If you party with a friend you can still kick out the rest of the dungeon to sell it at last boss. It kinda sends out the sign that anet just Loves dungeon sellers and wants to fix things for them, but f the normal players.

Maybe add a kicking penalty of some sort on top of the point system, like the guy being kicked would get a kicking timer for 5 minutes – enough time to screenshot everything that happened and argue with the party. : p A little deadly for speed runs that get a noobie though… hmm.

How about in dungeon creating point you can choose certain terms for the path? Like you can choose a point system if you’re starting a solo/duo to sell it later, a 5-min penalty for kicking (or deduction of prize money/for leaving/something) or no penalties at all ?

yeah… what’s more likely, him being kicked at last boss of lvl 8 fractals for being a terrible player or the group of guildies giving his spot to another guildie?

The group was apparently speaking mostly german the whole time, so they weren’t being co-operative. They had their own tactics, which means they probably just do fractals inside the guild and don’t give much kitten about others. If they thought he was a bad player, they should have kicked him at the 2nd fractal or so. And considering the guy talk liek dis m8 and insults him for being the worst engi player “ever”, I don’t think the OP should have apologized.

It’s a level 8 fractals, you’ll kinda have to assume that there’s people that have done fractals for maybe 10 times at max, and if you don’t want that just add it in LFG. And Mai Trin is not that difficult boss, you just need 2 decent players who can ress the rest for the fight to get through it. There’s absolutely no reason to kick someone for being bad at THAT boss at level 8 fractal, and if you need to “kick out the weakest link”… umm. Maybe they should have looked in the mirror, sucked it up and learnt the fight instead of blaming it on the pug?

On the other hand, if the OP joined a group with label “5k+ AP”, was being obnoxious about his 1337 skillz and failing all the time, then yeah, pretty much earnt kick. I don’t know if it’s so, but it’s good to recognize some people are just kittens and there’s not always “two sides of the story”. It’s good to have a positive outlook on human kind and assume there’s good in every person, but if it goes to victim blaming… you become an enabler for making it alright to do bad things to people in weaker position.

I hope they get banned.

I’ll advice my friends too to never give free spots at dungeons or ask help via LFG, it’s just too easy to abuse the system by coming to party and kicking out the original members. These two guys just came in and sold it forward, who’s to say they won’t do it to any other party at the end boss? Not just dungeon sellers, but any party that loses two members and asks for people for the end boss. Really easy targets to just hi-jack and sell the path.

I love the style you have going on and the dolly looks adorable. : )

And yes, the guide for vit/toughness is pretty clumsy. I was planning to do a whole series on them, but not sure how to make it more clear/understandable/correct.

I finally, after 8 months from this update, decided to make more alts than the normal 8 for wvw/other build purposes.

I recently got my new mesmer to 80 and the trait system has positively made me sure that I don’t want to make new charas anymore. I was planning to buy a set of 8 new chara slots and slowly work towards having alts for other build purposes, but a with a hefty forced price of 43g per alt for unlocking traits only (or like 35-40g since I’d pick part of them while leveling)… 344g for the traits of 8 characters or spending my time doing harathi 100% and waiting on lyssa or whatever to appear 8x time?

Alts are already pretty useless and waste of money, requiring their own set of gear, time to level, with rewards being acc bound, using skill points that could be used to gain gold..
As the sort of player who will change weapons and builds on the fly so this is very much a deal breaker.

But I do like the idea of the system, it just needs to be better thought out… like maybe 3 locked skill points per trait line with reasonable challenge instead of map completion? or the first one starting at level 1 where you have absolutely nothing to do anyways?

I don’t collect minis, but i’d gladly trade my legendary for That Specific Mini. I’m sure there’ll be pvp players who would rather have gold to buy things they like rather than have a llama mini, so it would be a win-win.

:s I just don’t understand why it looks so different on a male and female again. I love it on my female characters, but on male it’s just “bleh”. Why did it suddenly change into long-sleeved, chest concealing clothes with a completely different cut and style?

The female version is nice as always though.

something like this would be nice (fast overpaint etcetc)

I’d like to see a 2H-sword, a suspiciously wriggling tentacle with the colors of purple/green, which has a pixelated cat as a handle and makes a pop-noise every time you hit something with it. Also smoky particle effects like in tequatl weapons.
I’d call it “Insanity Poppins”, named after mary poppins.

… 2H-axes, scythes and whips would be nice too I suppose.

HHR LostProphet.4801:

If people want to play mario games, they play mario games. If people want to play GW2, they most likely wont play SAB.

I just bought mario for 3ds… and I play gw2 and I play SAB (also known as GW2) when it’s around. I don’t see your point.

I have a casual approach to this game, but I have a lot of free time, so… I pretty much log on every other day, play like 8-something hours and if my bf tells me has sushi I’m off. :P

I casually afk-poke things in wvw, collect gold for stuff (got my legendary last summer so atm it’s just ascendeds/skins), play dungeons and when lacking on people/too lazy to lfg I usually end up trio’ing/duo’ing w/e (coe, ac, cof). Sometimes I roll with randoms and stick around to see how they do things or just show them tactics/tips if they’re new and curious. I usually do the LS content when it comes kinda lazily but get it done mostly anyways. Lately I’ve been starting Arah in solo out of boredom, but it’s been ending up as trio/full party since I got pals now that are interested of arah too… XD I can’t solo lupi yet, so I’m kinda having my fun in learning that now. If I’m feeling lazy I’ll just do some champ train and zone off to nice music.

aaand since it’s fun, I sport full zerkers and learn game mechanics/tactics. :v Most of the time I don’t care much what others wear or do as long as they don’t start going all elitist and dramaqueen in the chat (this includes casuals who start ranting about zerker gears being scrub).

small edit;
@for people who consider the description above to be of an elitist… You may consider me as Elite if you wish to upkeep the ideals of your elitism and that’s your thing, but elitist I am not. ;)

It’s normal since you worked hard for something for a long time… then you got it and you rightfully should feel that you have accomplished what you wanted and that there’s nothing else for you to do as that was the long-term goal you set for yourself.
Just do some normal things a little bit every day and you’ll pick your pace soon and find new things to go for if you still want to find enjoyment from gw2.

For the lack of updates I just went to play GW1 instead – I’ve had it in my shelf since last summer but never really found a good time for it. Most of us have things we haven’t found the time for before and there’s not particular need to play GW2 to keep up with others. You can just go do those dishes and play that game from ‘93 that you’ve been meaning to and come back when GW2 offers something you’re interested of.

Hey again.
Refreshing or using opera instead of chrome doesn’t fix the problem. Currently I think it sets me up about +3 hours ahead of schedule (it’s 20:30 here and it claims the next world bosses are Golem Mark, Shadow Behe, Jormag, Svanir Shaman, Taidha covington, fire ele, etc).
I live in Europe and I’m currently at +3gmt, because of daylight saving time. Normally I’m at +2gmt.

Best:
SAB
Combat/JP flow (comfortable, fun)
Shared exp/loots/nodes (grouping up with other people feels natural and fun)
Legal gem buying with in-game gold (win-win situation for all)
Alt-friendliness

Worst:
Dungeon/fractals forced mechanisms that require 3-5 players
Lack of good looking/revealing male clothes compared to females
Hard content only temporary (Liadri/tribulation)
Underwater battle/movement
Story is quite predictable and our character background/personality is decided for us

The UI looks nice and especially for new peeps it’s good that the boss shows on the map… and the countdown is much easier to follow than the normal timeline-based schedule, but for me the bosses aren’t quite on time. Currently it shows the next boss is “Modniir”, while the next boss for me is Golem Mark II.

Here’s a story about pre-renewal Ragnarok Online at it’s prime time:

- Only around 10-15 storyline quests in the whole game available. The first one you could do at level 60 and it gave you a good item + exp. The rest you would need level 80+ and you were more likely to lose exp and not gain anything good. On later years we got normal quests, which were LITERALLY “Kill 200 of those things” and you’d get extra exp for that. People doing those quests were called spoiled brats.

- At level 98 it would take you about an hour to gain 1% exp as a decent average. In short it took 100 hours to get from 98 to 99, assuming you didn’t die. People in their 9x simply didn’t go out and do anything else than level in the fear or dying, unless they were at 0% exp. So that’s 100 hours in a damp dungeon killing the same monsters over and over again.

- There was something called exp/hr. You’d calculate your exp/hr to maintain that you have a good leveling rhythm. Later on the exp/hr average rose to 2.5m exp/hr for bad classes and 10m exp/hr, which meant that since it took 99m exp/hr from lvl 98-99, it only took you 40 hours with a bad class and 10 hours with a good class. It was literally smarter to level up a knight and leech 4 other classes with that.

- On the other hand, when things did become easier leveling wise, we got the re-incarnation system. So once you got your character to level 99, you got to start it all over again at level 1, but with better stats. Naturally they required more exp to get higher. Later on these new reincarnated characters got a level raise to 150 just in case you felt you didn’t have enough grind.

I have 11k AP, 2700+ hours played, legendary, around 150$+ gems bought with gold, etcetc. and I feel like most of the time I’m just waving my hands around running down a street and kittens are just raining on me. In comparison to RO, the game is like visiting a candy store.
… But I’ve also learnt to how to deal with grinding and finding enjoyment in the silliest things (my current amusement is just pretty much dying in GW2 since I don’t lose exp). In short GW2 (and everything with a long-term goal) will be grindy, if you only keep your mind on the price all the time. If you focus more on just having fun and finding the fun in things around you, you’ll forget about time and the prize will just come to you without you even realizing it.

Overall it’s a good to learn how to deal with long term goals.

Notice however how little the you actually can move those features around. Technically speaking those features are already in mmos like ffxiv and blade’n’soul, but the UI for that one is especially nice and easy to use.

In the end you’re still heavily handicapped and not able to do anything else than pretty female characters and rough looking guys. Might as well have pre-made body types – and I can bet you that GW2 lets you have a better variety of body/face types than that game will.

I currently feel like making this work there’s two choice:
A. Don’t make wurm/tequatl maps have megaservers at all
B. Give enough merits/we you need for boss spawns from a successful kill so that the guilds will be able to easily spawn it several times a day.

I’d also like to point out that TxS isn’t exactly a elitist guild like some posts make it seem like. Pretty much anyone capable of reading and listening can join the guild. We don’t need to ping out our armors nor do the officers throw out “wrong classes”. We are asked to use certain skills on certain classes and having some consumables, but that’s still different than being asked to re-trait like elitists usually require you to (while mocking). There’s a lot of casuals in TxS and what makes it work is that it’s organized and full of people that are willing to come 30 minutes early and ready to listen to TS so that the event will go fine. It’s true that randoms probably only need a bit organization to get the events done and that’s what TxS does. We make the event organized.

Randulf.7614:

It may even allow for you to teach a new and wider audience the raids. Surely that is as exciting as when you first made the alliances to take down the bosses?

The problem is more so that our current audience in TxS is already huge and there are times when people don’t fit the servers. For example in wurm’s case when I still did it with TxS, there were people who came on TS 2-3 hours earlier and couldn’t fit the server because it was already full when it was announced. I remember few times we had like 20+ people that were left out… and that’s not counting the people who couldn’t fit into the TS server. now if the servers could hold up to 300-400 people without lag, we could be onto something.

And, it’s not about considering randoms as too stupid to do tequatl – anyone can read/learn on how to do it similar to doing ACp2 and obviously it’s possible to do with randoms considering that servers already do Tequatl without us, but it’s more about doing it in a group that you’re familiar with and who are interested of the event in the same way as you are.

In short, we are a group of people that like to gather to kill tequatl/wurm and we’re pretty used to seeing each other at the set (at least the core people). Doing the kills with randoms is not the same, just like doing guild missions with half of them being randoms is not the same as doing it in unison with your own guild.

I’d love to see a hard mode of the dungeons similar to SAB tribulation mode. It was quite perfect system, honestly.

Perhaps so that the people going in are limited to 2, but you can solo the whole dungeon (similar to trib mode) and no one else can enter halfway to discourage selling dungeon paths.
The rewards could be better than normal dungeons – no account bound unique things, just gold and more tokens. It would make people feel like learning to play is rewarding. Also if there was account bound things, the casual (+ latency issue) people would end up feeling left out.

Although you could start trib mode with 5 people, I feel that it’d be better if for hardmode dungeons it was just preferably just two people… at most three people. Then it’d make more sense to downscale the HP of the monsters more suitable for 1 player unlike if you know that in best scenario you have 5. Also people tend to assume things are meant for five people when you have the option to get five… most of the time this means having to use pugs to fill out the spots. When it comes to harder things, it’s much more fun and nerve-soothing to play with people you more or less know.

I feel that it would be nice for it to be a 2-man dungeon (which you can also solo similar to normal dungeons) because it is a mmo and I’ve noticed a lot of people seek out to have a partner, a teacher or a student in this game.

edit: got sidetracked dreaming of SAB. : P
In similar way, it’d be cool to have an easy mode for the same dungeons, that’s soloable/2-man, with just less tokens/gold.

Chase.8415:

Culturally speaking, women are much more acceptable half naked than men are. There’s also that problem with people who get offended by their own masculinity by seeing other men exposed or wearing that armor itself. It just causes more problems than you think.

Its the exact same reason why you see far more naked women than men in mature content… its just how our culture works.

You can always influence how your culture works and the more we see naked men around, the more normal it becomes. I don’t really remember anyone complaining about the more skin-showing male outfits we currently have after 1+ years of playing, so I think the community is ready for more. On the contrary I hear often on this game and elsewhere about the gender inequality and how silly it is that men DON’T have lesser clothed armor. In a way GW2 (among few other mmo’s) is very much left behind on what is socially acceptable (inequality about male/female armor).

I think it’s just a popular belief that most people don’t want more showing male armor and it’s the sheep that scream the loudest from shock when the social norm is broken to show how well they follow those norms in fear of being labeled as a weird person.

But it’s OK, once it become more normal, they’ll become more used to it and they’ll have no problems with it eventually. It’s not like they get all disgusted when they see males in swimsuits at the beach. They just don’t have any real reasons to not want naked male skin in the game.

Yeah, I’d want something along these lines:

( Obviously in GW2-graphic style… I’m not a fan of armor gems that are the size of the character’s head )

How about you make the normal blue tag cost just measly 10-20g – and add New tags (different colors/logos) that you can gain by other means, like with AP points/laurels/karma/wvw tokens/dungeon tokens/whatever comes to your mind.

I’d prefer something linked to achievements though. Not AP points, but something like after you get your dungeon master title or you’ve gained enough ranks in wvw, you’ll get your own unique snowflake tag.

… I’ll have to admit I really don’t want to hear anything a girl needs to talk about that she can’t talk to a male associate – it just sounds creepy, even though the OP writes it in such a cute and innocent way. Likewise being wanted as a pal for being the same as 50% of human population is a weird requirement and makes me wonder what sorta fluffy pony land the person lives in to think it’s enough to make an assumption we are somehow similar enough to be friends. I don’t feel like it will improve my feeling of similarity either even if we both had blonde hair and blue eyes.
However, If you happen to run chill dungeon/fractal runs and you sorta like the game enough to learn how to play we might have something in common…

Never the less – this is all written with a good intention. I hope the OP has found what she was looking for.

You’re confusing newbie-friendly to alt-friendly.

I take it you haven’t seen the stat difference.

the difference in full berserker set is around +15power, 60 def, 10 prec. For the whole set. The invidual difference is around +1pow, +10def and 1 prec. It’s hardly even a 1% increase compared to exotics for a set of 6 pieces. If you die in wvw, it has nothing to do with ascended armor.

Also Norn women are hot, dwarven on the other hand…

Dwarf females have beards. Norn women do not stand a chance against how hot that is. All females, no matter what race, body shape or how close they are to their own cultural beauty standards, they do not compare when there is a beard to compete.

bloody tears

I don’t even have the patience for getting ascended weapons . . .

Dear Anet, where’s my metal-speedo’s for a male chara.
Give me some eye candy too, kitten kitten.

The point is still the same, you can’t stack against these bosses if your group has poor DPS because you’ll just get wiped.

^This pretty much. When melee she won’t do the AOE, but she’ll poke you direct damage.

Just go range. Take the small spiders first, don’t stand in AOE. After she has thrown her AOE around, go far away from her (or if you’re good at dodging, dodge to her other side) to avoid the white web-attack. She just does those two attacks when range. The rotation being AOE > web > AOE > web > AOE > web etc.

I was also at trib 2-2 and got stuck in that place.
I was frantically jumping, dodge-jumping and more jumping for 10-15 minutes at the bell end, until I finally managed to find the spot. I think it’s a bit on the corner.

I’ve started experiencing lag recently and have been thinking of getting battleping – but when I tried GW2 with wtfast, obviously I get different IP every time I log in… and it wanted authentication. Every. Single. Time.

It’s tiring. How do I make it from pestering me about authentication?

I also dislike this system. s:
I’m not home every day, sometimes away for 3 days and sometimes I have like 2-2 days in a week that’s free for playing. I like SAB a lot so I’ll be around more… but in the end they just made the grind thousands times worse than last time, even though they promised to tone it down.
I’d understand the change if you got a skin for running through world 1, but I don’t understand why we need to run it daily on 7 days just for 1 account bound skin.

I’m nice to commanders if they are nice to me. I used to be really into of wvw, but then I started to get headaches… basically for a week or two I witnessed officers that ragequit after few hours (no kidding, one day I witnessed 3 different ragequits), blamed players on failing and not listening or following. Some of them probably had reason for it… others not so much. Then few started writing in caps locks – which seriously gave me headache after reading it for few hours – probably because I’m prone to migraines… (not a fan of zigzag or lines either)

After I noted commander of my own guild saying it causes headache and it’s quite unpolite anyways, he just proceeded to explain that he uses capslocks because otherwise people don’t listen to him and he won’t give me special treatment even if I’m a guildie.

yeah. These days I go into wvw and if there’s even one insult or I see a commander typing in capslocks, I just turn off /say /map and /team.

I like commander tags though. Makes it easier to see where people are. I think it’d be better if they didn’t cost any money and we automatically had them – in that case people wouldn’t make such a fuzz about it.
