I’m sorry to say this is literally impossible the name of the original item must be kept here is an example why. In PvP there is a skin which shares the same as the precursor “The Hunter” the only ways to get this skin was through PvP before or by owning the precursor. If the name of my rifle was to change back to the name of the skin I would have a precursor which I never had.

But in PvP that rifle has another name, so in the skin you should have the PvP name.
Then if you find The Hunter you shoud get another skin IMO.

I’m with Royal with this, it hurts me to see my beloved Volcanus named Zojja’s Claymore :\

TheDaiBish.9735:

• Order Missions – Not neccessarily daily, but maybe randomised (so you’re requested on a ‘as needed’ basis)? To add the extra RP element, maybe even lose ranks if you fail to attempt x number of missions in a row, with a system that allows you to suspend this if you’re not going to be playing for a few weeks / months for whatever reason.

^This please.

Zera Allimatti.2541:

I think I even heard that the reason is because ‘Asian/African/Middle Eastern’ themes are offensive, and NCSoft wants no part of that. If that really is the case, then that’s just said. Political correctness has overtaken creative expression and sensible moral judgement.

I’ve heard that too and maybe as a generic white caucasian guy I should feel offended too by this generic- caucasian- renassaince style the pulled out for humans..

I remember when when Fire & Frost was first announced. I thought “nice, maybe the Molten Alliance is some kind of new cult of Primordius instilled with his powers (a bit like the sons of Svanir) and maybe this will lead to an episodal (is that a word? dunno..) story arc about Primordius’s lore”.
Too bad that wasn’t the case which is a pity. All we got after that instead were Power Rangers- style villains with fancy weapons.
Think about it, how can you feel involved and intrigued in a story where:
1- You’re just a bystander following npcs and getting almost no credit at all for what you achieve (storywise);
2- The villains are just.. villains. Random alliances bringing havoc for no particular reason other than “being evil”.

I don’t know Anet, I got the feeling that for some reason you’re not allowed to introduce new original lore content (dragons and gw1 stuff) until a given time temporizing with all this LW arcs.
I guess you have your reasons so I won’t argue with that, but if you can’t add new lore try to evolve the mechanic of elements you already have instead of creating temporary mediocre content (see Ronah on his post and Runeblade on dynamic events).

Oh one more thing, can you please keep LW content out of wvw please?

I’m glad they made a channel like this one, GW fanbase can count on so many talented people it would just be a pity to let it go.

On my hand since I’m rubbish with colours I’ ll just post sketches. Nothing great, just to have fun with my tablet.

Here’ s a female warrior, wich is my current character, and the other is my old one from GW (for old times sake ).

@Telsyr.8723 “Asian-based MMO’s have been using two sets of skills (Same skills different damage/effect/CD/DR’s) for over 10 years with a hugely positive results.”

You mean like GW1?

TRAITS

Sweet revenge: I think the rally issue is entirely mob-related. I noticed that (i.e.) In “Suspicious activity” story mission, after 1/4 of progress, mobs didn’ t count anymore for weapon stacks (I tried with GS with sigil of bloodlust) thus those mobs aren’t seen as an actual kill for Sweet Revenge. The strange thing is that as KazNaka said if you kill them while downed you will rally.

Get back the old Soulbind method.

I think Gw1 personalization\soulbinding was pretty neat, ok it worked only on weapons but the idea is the same. Just soulbind on use gold\exotic weapons and armor and let decide players to soulbind the rest, greens included. You can give (i.e.) the old 20% bonus damage for weapons on personalization and a +5 defence per piece of armor.

Since I got “sweet revenge” my survivability in pve got way better. Especially if you play solo is a bit of a must. However the trait is a bit bugged, i.e. if you get killed again while in vengeance when you respawn you will die again due to the ability effect. Also it doesn’t seem to work into story instances (too bad since with SR you could end every mission without dying once).

I know there are already rumors about introducing land polearms in future patches/releases, but I’ d like to have a proper thread about it.

I’ d love to see this kind of weapons both on melee and ranged professions:
The first one because, well like someone said in another thread, they’re just kick*ss and the second because it would be a nice blend of magical and physical attacks.

Spears, pikes, halberds, 2h axes, scythes, the lot! which would you prefer?

On my hand a warrior with a scythe would be awesome :P

If I were to add something more dynamic for a Warrior, it would be something like two stances that have different skill sets for the weapons themselves. So in Offensive Stance, my GS abilities would be the same as they are now. In Defensive, perhaps three abilities are swapped with a more defensive focus, like a riposte.

More realistically, you could just have variations of the same abilities. For example, in Offensive, Hundred Blades is just how it is now. In Defensive, it does 1/4th the damage (or no damage, whatever), but blocks incoming attacks from the front. Maybe Rush would be used on a Teammate to block the next attack they would have otherwise taken, and Whirlwind attack would reflect projectiles but do 1/4th/no damage.

I love the “defensive stance” idea! It could also be adrenaline related ,i.e. you can swap to defense with one stage of adrenaline and the other 2 adding damage to the defensive skills proportionally using the F2 button.

I also like Damaste’s Idea. It’ s a bit more complex but it should work.

Increase party cap to 10 in pve please (or at least 8 like GW1). 5 persons is not enough even for a small guild.

Same here with the Stout ring.
