Herald's horrifying ground effect

I have to add my voice to that because it is really, really ugly. Please let use remove it. I barely play me Herald right now just because of that gaudy thing.

Got to the same point.
Seems last patch broke stuff with sons of svanir. You can tell that they now seem to try to evade attacks and move from time to time when they are idle.
But for friendly ones, when they move you cannot talk to them. I believe this is linked since I can bug the guard of the minotaur pen in this instance. When you talk to him and chose the action that would make him go in the tent, if you stand very close to him, he will try to avoid you but after that forget to go to the tent.
That’s what might happen with the one yelling for help.

Ok, I cleared the entire Temp folder, but apparently it didn’t do anything, but I noticed that there was tooltips appering in the window when I passed the cursor over it, so I began to click all over the window like a madman and it worked after 5 seconds…
I must have hit the button Custom Exchange by chance, which refreshed the window..

I want all those pvp activities, with or without glory and rank, to be removed from pve daily and moved to pvp daily where they belong.

On the contrary, I love being able to complete my PvE daily with a bit of minigame. With glory it’s all the more interesting, because with time, it will allow me to get the gear looks I want during these minigames.

You mean that’s not normal? This sounds like my drop rate since release. I think you were just lucky to ever experience a better drop rate.

Sounds like my drop rate since release too! I think I’m perma-DR account-wide…

Oh, and a MMO is not a grind by definition. It’s just that the majority of them are (which sucks btw).

personal story end loot still too low

I just have to agree with this.
Also, I haven’t finished the story yet, but given my RNG jinx, I will surely have blues instead of greens from the treasure bags (like almost everytime when I open a chest).

I like the story, but if I kill a dragon in the end, I’d like to feel powerful too.

Combat Depth on the PvE side, Opinions...

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Polluxor.5970

Polluxor.5970

I also think that, although the fights should be strategically harder, enemies should have generally lower HP and/ or, maybe, better rewards.

For a simple reason: fighting challenging battles is fun, having every single enemy of the 1000th foes you’ll have to defeat taking too long to beat is not, unless there’s a proper reward. The alternative is really lower HP.

Let the battles be harder but faster, requiring higher skill but rewarding you with faster battles. This should make any fuure harder pve experience more fluid. And I doubt slightly faster battles = easier battles, unless th HP is so low that you can burst and kill every single time before even getting hit.

This. Many times.

Thoughts on Ascended Gear? [Merged threads]

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Polluxor.5970

Polluxor.5970

THE ANSWER

Well I got a shocker for you the reason is they are adding in more legendary items. Namely armor, which will have the best stats of any item in the game. Ascended is just a means for us poor people who don’t have mass loot or have failed to benefit by Anets poor economic workings.

Ascended items are a hamster wheel, it literally is a step in the grind toward legendary’s.

This doesn’t answer the question. If they would have introduced legendary armors, it would have been with exotic stats, just like the weapons.
The Ascended gear stats upgrade has nothing to do in the game and must be removed.
The question is: why is it there?

umm you possible wouldwant tolook to ascended items/infusions recipes…

They possibly surpasses most korean mmorpg grinding requirement….
Also they almost destroyed economy in few days ._.

To craft 12 Ascended items:
3000 tier 6 fine crafting material
12 vials of condensed mist essence
600 globs of ectoplasm
288 skill points

To infuse 12 Ascended items:

3000 Passion Fruits
1200 Vicious Claws
12 Eldritch Scrolls = 600 skill points
240 Mystic Coins = 240 daily achievements

Enjoy your grind.

Right, but how many ascended item slots are there at present? Three. You can also buy infusions with the dungeon tokens.

[sarcasm]
That’s good, you can divide these requirements in 4 parts! You do one part now and when comes the updates you can do the 3 others!
Let me give you this hamster medal.
[/sarcasm]

Not saying it isn’t a grind. But let’s not pretend people need to be gathering 3000 passion fruit this week to be able to play. If I choose to grind content I enjoy for gear I want that’s my decision. I don’t insult your play style, so don’t insult mine.

Okay please accept my apologies. I didn’t mean to be mean. I’m just a little bit kittened off.

everyone reached max level and had literally nothing to do.

Wrong. I clocked somwhere like 400 hours into the game and I only have 1 lvl 80 who is not even geared in exotics, my other 7 characters are all below 50.
I still have plenty to do for months to come without ascended gear, and I wasn’t the only one in that situation.

I gave an invitation to my girlfriend who is a very casual gamer, but now I just told her to not bother since she will never be able to keep up.
Not that she would have made it to exotics anytime soon, but at least she won’t have to suffer all the gear grind mentality that comes with these types of games…

We finally got our answer. We did it by being bystanders to the newest marketing outreach to unhappy vertical progression MMO players.

I understand what happened. The development team was what we bought, the “Live” team is who is now in charge.

Beta through release was a fantastic game with some flaws.
The first content update, managed by the Live team, used “industry standards” to “respond” to their most “dedicated players”.

I do want to know where these two gentlemen who pioneered horizontal progression in Guild Wars 1 have gone, and if there is any legal way for the original developers to speak up I would like to hear it.

It’ s been fun.

The two people responcible for the original horizontal progression direction left GW2 in 2010 and are now working at Undeadlabs

Where did you get that?
If that’s true that’s there are only 2 ppl who believed in only horizontal progression are gone, then where are the rest who worked at the original GW in ANet?

I don’t know what ANet should be more ashamed of.

The decision or the way it was communicated & the replies they have made.

The decision.
The communication can always be improved.
But the decision is just a big load of ettin refuse.

His latest post doesn’t explain why they introduce gear with better stats.
People weren’t hunting for legendaries in order to get better stats since those were just like exotics stat-wise. So the argument to have some meat before legendary doesn’t hold much to me.

Why aren’t ascended items just like exotics in stats?

I would really like to know the reason for this.
