Guild Wars 2

I bought Guild Wars 2 the day it came out. I loved it, bought the expansion for me and three friends the day it was released. Now I am uninstalling it. I figured it was time to craft a legendary so I went for Kudzu. I got the first and second collections done and ended up spending about 300g. Not to bad was going well had some fun. Then I got to the third collection, I gathered carrots for 6 hours. This is just the first part of the collection, and I still didn’t get what I needed. So I decided to cut my loses and try the mystic forge because there was no way I was gonna grind plants all day for god knows how long. I dropped over 700g into the forge and got nothing, now I have 20g. So I went from 1kg to 20g with nothing to show for it. I liked this game because unlike other MMO’s I didn’t have to grind dungeons for better gear. But it got replaces with grinding gathering nodes and horrible RNG. I’m very disappointed I understand legendaries should be hard to come by, but there has to be a better way then making it super grindy boring as hell and killing the fun of the game.

Does anyone else find it incredibly frustrating to rank in PVP? It seems completely unbalanced, I understand I am not that great but in normal que I’m normally top of my team . I just started playing this ranked season so I’m amber and I am currently 2 wins of at least 15 games.I am not sure why this is it seems as if I’m playing people way out of my league, people that shouldn’t be in the amber rank. I guess what I’m saying is I just want to play people of similar skill level and not play games that are a massacre.Or be matched with a bunch of newbs against veteran pvpers. It kills the fun and is very demoralizing. To the point of just finding a different game.
