Guild Wars 2

I did quit because:

-made all the dungeons several times and got the dungeon master title;
-all my 4 lvl 80 characters have 2 or 3 endgame sets;
-Nothing new in PVE, grinding fractals became boring after lvl 30 and there is nothing fun about it anymore;
-No real reason to keep doing the dungeons after you get the set, no special rare epic drop motivate me;
-I realized that every new patch introduced new zergs and found myself bored after 15 minutes of mindless zerging;
-I don’t like SPVP- maps are nice, fight are nice but there isn’t any character progression;
-WvWvW is a nice idea;

The end reason is that I don’t know what to do anymore. Farming it’s not fun for me but it’s the only way to get the endgame rewards. Legendary -farm and pray otherwise farm more to buy the precursor; I found myself a few days ago in LA thinking about what should I do.

That’s why I quit.

I doubt that but good luck!

The game asks you “Are you sure you want to buy bla bla bla” so it’s only your fault.

As said: Good luck!

The way they make them is fine.

Every living world thing in the last time is something like “10 minute solo dungeon” and a new zerg somewhere in the world.
Just go to the mad king now and try to find a zerg, it’s just abbandoned because a new zerg zone was created.

I stopped doing the living world stuff, did the TA new path which I found interesting and nice and now I just do the parts of the game I like. Zerging is just “brainwash no fun game”. A game should be fun and not running around in circles like a dumb chicken.

Joined several guilds until I found a good one. In the first months we were quite active, doing dungeons with guild people, teaching tactics to newbies and so on.

Lately, after the lfg tool was introduced the guild almost died. Is hard to find people who is looking for groups in guild chat and the only times when I feel it like a guild is when we do guild missions.

Guardians have higher DPS than warriors.

Hundred blades isn’t overpowered either, I tested axe auto chain (3.6s) and hundred blades (3.5s channel) in cursed shore and both kill a normal mob at the end of their duration, so the GS kills 0.1s faster.

Never said they don’t. I just said that he cannot claim to have a good dps with soldier gear, defensive traits and those runes.
I play a berserker guardian and it’s pretty fine until now. I was getting too lazy playing AH and now I still manage to survive, bring a lot of dps to the group, reflections and boons. I really think that I bring more to the group now than before.

You are a tank, with tank gear and tanky traits. Worse than classic AH build which at least uses Knight gear for a bit more dmg. If you claim that the dmg is good then you never played warrior to see what real dmg is.

I suggest you to go and read a few topics on gw2guru.
Never going down it’s both an advantage and disadvantage. Lately it’s more effective to kill a boss as fast as you can .

I really hope you use Sota and WaR. Those are really important in a lot of dungeons and it’s vital in fractals.

Nothing to say about wvw, never been there with something else than my necro.

On 1 thing you are right. I hate people who join my party and ask if they can relog at the endboss on a low lvl character. Can’t help it, I just hate them.

For the content. There are some things you like in a game and some things you don’t like. It’s impossible to love 100% of every game in the world so there is content which will be done every day and content which will be touched one time and then never again.

The “need to farm” thing.
Well, after you make your lvl 80’s characters, go through a lot of content and do what you like to do in the game, get the armors you like and the weapons you like there is 1 step further which is Legendaries.

To get a legendary you need:
-make the content you like daily hoping to drop the materials you need for the legendary- repeat it for thousands of times;
-farm champions
-farm other stuff, sell it for gold and then buy what you need.

GW2 it’s not worse than other MMO but it’s also not so much better. I like it and I play it.

For how I see it, every character I make needs to make a step forward in the game with everything I do so..when I played a lot on it, farmed the dungeons, got the armor and weapons etc..the next step forward would be the legendary weapon.

I have almost 1 year since I play this game, 4 lvl 80 characters well geared, more than 800 hours played and never had the luck to drop a precursor. I didn’t farm too much, I just played through the content I like but playing like this I don’t have even 20% of what is needed for the legendary weapon.

Doing lvl 40+ fractals it’s nice, doing some dungeons again it’s nice but it’s not a step forward in my character’s progression. To make the progression I should farm and pray for precursors which I won’t.

You touched some interesting points there.

Personally I will never make a legendary until I will have to farm my a** for materials. Farming it’s not fun for me;
Running around like an brainwashed dumb player in orr or frostgorge killing champions with other hundreds of players it’t not fun and it brings no challenge to the game..oh maybe it’s a challenge because you need to run fast or you will not get the loot;
Having no exact formula to achieve precursors it’s like " hey you farmed for the mats now go and farm for gold because you cannot afford to buy a precursor but who knows..maybe you will find it one day!"

Farming is boring, gives no value to the game and brings no challenge. AOE+speed stuff FTW.
I would agree with farming if it’s a choice of players to do it but this is no choice. If you want something you just need to farm.

It’s not their fault if people don’t read what you are looking for and they just wanna join.

I got a lvl 12 who joined for fractals lvl 30 yesterday but it’s not arena net’s fault. It could happen the same with the gw2lfg. People join, ping gear they have in their bags and then equip the mf gear.

It’s up to players to use it properly and you cannot blame anet for that.

Is an old topic but…there would be a simple solution that maybe would be better and which they are already using in the game (story missions).

Give us a choice. If someone is lucky to find a ring or a skin in that chest, add 2 more and let him choose which one from the 3 he wants to get. It’s simple and I found it strange in the first place that they implemented it in the story missions where nobody gives a kitten about the drop (not talking about keys or rare stuff but the armor/wep drop)

It’s funny all this mf thing.

I have a ranger that I leveled only for farming orr, full traveler gear, mf on everything, 30%mf food constantly up and mf sigil on weapons.
Yesterday while farming orr I was getting only those skulls that are sold as junk and green or blue stuff and I also had my last mf booster up (50%). This happened until the mf booster ended and at about the same time the mf food ended too.
I said to myself “I finish this event and I’m done for today so there is no need to use food again”.
Guess what?
4 rares dropped on the shelter camp defend event. And I farmed that event more than 5 times before with the 80% mf bonuses from the food and booster and nothing dropped.
I’ll quit farming because it sucks these days

I’m still getting the error.
After several attempts I can login but as soon as I use a waypoint or I go into a dungeon I have it again and I have to close the client and restart praying to make a successful login x(!
This is…ahhh

Same error: 42:0:9001:4110 build 16974
Italy

Somehow the error 7… was solved about 2 weeks ago and now this one happens each time I teleport.
The issue started 3 days ago

What I can say is that I don’t feel rewarded for what I’m doing at lvl 80.

Made cof, arah and ac more than 50 times each and I don’t feel fine with having to farm months to get legendary stuff that adds just a different “look” and no special stats to your character.

Meeting everyday people with full mf set and having to carry them and their “pirate bird” all the way through the dungeons makes me angry.

because it doesn’t work at all

It sucks more and more every day.

When I finally got my set with 150+ magic find (boons and mf booster) in 1 hour of farming orr, the only rare thing I got was one of those dusts for crafting.
Not good as a start..not good at all

What will be the reason to make events or farm mobs then?

It is already boring and in some cases I get angry when for some reason after 5 minutes of farming my loots decrease a lot even with 150+ magic find so something is wrong about it.

Just look at the champions, people just skip them because they give no loot most of the times and to say the truth I wouldn’t spend 5-10 minutes of gaming for 1silver reward and a bit of karma

Interesting, I guess noone will ever make again COF path 2 now and if you are not a warrior or a guardian you are screwed up. Good JOB!

What about the kittenty rewards at the end of a dungeon? Rares are so rare that I’ve never got them from a dungeon or even if I found something rare it wasn’t from a boss.

Kethryes.5712:

There is 5% listing sale (that you pay and lose forever when you post your item) and a 10% tax when the object is actually sold, taken from the benefits of the sale.

So a total of 15% tax given you do not remove and relist your item multiple times.

On other news, did you completely clear you pick up tab? Because the gold will not appear if you have too many items waiting to be picked up.
(Pick up tab only shows the ~100 first items, and gold is treated as an item in their list

Yes I did check and cleared the pickup tab and still nothing.
Wow, 15% that’s a lot, there is no way I can earn something by buying mats and crafting items and then sell. Thanks for the info.

Rouven.7409:

Sounds almost like you only got the payment for one item so far. This has never happened to me in the past, but reading here on the forums it can sometimes take a bit to show up.

If is that, well I’m still waiting the 12 gold for the first bag I ever crafted with tailoring that is listed as sold yesterday morning while I never got the gold(that requires the rune from the vendor that costs 10 gold on its own).

But I don’ get it, I already pay a tax when I want to list the item. Is there another tax for when the item gets sold? I’ve seen that somewhere here on the forum but I don’t know if it’s true

morphemass.2850:

If you go into your sold items tab, what price does it say they sold for?

For the price I listed them. The first thing I thought of was that I made an error at writing the price so I checked that tab and the prices were 5 gold and silver and the other one 1 gold and silvers (the sum is more than 100 silvers so this is why the total should be around 7 gold)

First of all for some items that I’m selling I don’t get the gold but that’s fine, after all I’m an italian player and I’m used to see money disappear from my “trading post”.

Second, I just noticed that this morning I put to sale 2 items for a total of 7gold and a few silvers.
I just logged in and SURPRISE! Items were sold but that’s not all the story because there is another SURPRISE! The gold I have for pickup is 4gold and 20 silver.

I’m not a math genius but are italian taxes applied to this trading post? Even if that is true, 3 golds out of 7 are missing so that would be around 40% taxes for what I’m selling?

I’m trying to joke on it but in the last days I’m getting angry with this game every single day.
First, an update that was made last monday screwed my game because when I go in party with someone I experience massive lag and get an error 7.×.×.x.x and just get disconnected.
I can’t do dungeons or world vs world or pvp and I just hit lvl 80 a few weeks ago so I don’t find it fun to levelup another character.
Second, I decided to craft items and make some gold until this gets fixed but it looks like someone hates me and wants to screw my game experience.

What’s going on? What should I do apart going back to the old mmorpg that I played for 6 years?

Ridiculous.
I’m done with this game if I won’t get my gold back somehow!
Yesterday I lost 12 gold because on trading post was listed that the item was sold for 12 gold but I had no gold to pickup. Made a bug report and nothing happened.
This morning I put to sale 1 bow that I crafted and another one that I found for a total of 7 gold and now that I logged in I have 4 gold and a few silvers to pickup.

Is math an opinion at trading post?
First you screwed my possibility to play the game because I get that error 7.×.×.x.×.x with the game connection every time I want to teleport or want to make a dungeon and now that I decided to craft items and make gold until you update and solve the problems MY GOLD IS MISSING.

Really, I want a reply or I’m done with this game and with arena net.

Last evening I put to sale a bag that I made with tailoring for 12 gold and a bow I made with huntsman for 5 gold.

This morning, I logged in and got about 6 gold from tp for the bow and a few small things I was selling and the bag was still there listed in the items I’m selling.
I just logged now and I see that the bag was sold 2 hours before the bow (even if this morning it wasn’t listed as sold) but I don’t have the gold!
What should I do to get my gold back? Things like this make me go crazy with this game!

Ashley, first of all thanks for replying to this thread.

Second, I’ve been playing gw2 for about 2 months now and I never got this error before 5 minutes after the Monday night update. There is someone in-game who says that he was working with ’’arenanet’’ to fix this error and that it had to do with wifi connections.

Now, I don’t know what you did. But 5 minutes after the update, I wasn’t able to do AC anymore because after the spider boss everything was stuck. Huge lag and it was impossible to play. Same thing today, I couldn’t do AC and stupidly I teleported to orr to farm some events. Now I can’t get out of there because when I try to teleport, after 5 minutes of loading screen I get this famous error 7.×.×.x.×. I can’t even farm events because nothing is moving around me.
I don’t want to offend but this sucks and I can’t play until you guys fix this.
Oh, and btw please don’t tell me to pay $25 to make a ping test or whatever because if you do, I’ll just go back to wow where strangely I never had this kind of problem in 6 years.

Hello, my first post on this forum is a complaint but I have to do it.

Since the last update the game works normally for me until I go in any dungeon.
As soon as we start fighting, my character will act like lagging and will not use any skill but I can write on chat and I see what people reply to me without any lag.

Please solve this. I never had this problems before the last update and my internet connection works fine.
