Guild Wars 2

I think we can all agree on a few simple things.
1. Not so great
2. expansion packs please.
3. Remove Blue part or let us dye it.

It doesn’t have to be living story. It can be anything though.
mine are:
1. New elite skill per profession.
2. New full exploration maps and maybe new races with them? (tengu)
3. Revamped Pet management.( general and skils/traits)
4. More waypoints in Orr plus hearts. (or less contested waypoints)
5. New full dungeons. Story + 3-4 exp modes.

1. 1700 gems is a lot.
2.. Most civilizations of a “medieval” time don’t have instant time transportation, where you can go across the world and still be at the same second as you were when you went through.
3. Mounts are technically in the gem store already. Broomstick, Drill, Carpet.

For those who played this game for a long time, you probably remember the huge feature patches we got for a few months.
For those who didn’t or don’t remember.

I for one liked this system a lot. What it did was in my opinion much more than other delivery systems have.

To sum it up. It went like this.

• Huge list of what will be in the patch. Nothing was left out.
• A confirmed date of when the content will be announced.
• A long detailed blog post was released and didn’t leave out any information.
• Once all of the posts have been released feedback was taken and the patch was released.

To me this sounds great. But how is that better than the Quarterly update system?
What that does is simply put.

• Teaser page released with main points, in example: shatterer, and gliding in tyria.
• Small blog post on changes to come on a few main points.
• Guild Chat talking about the update before it launches.

The main common point these share are time between announcement and release.

What the Feature patch does better is the fact that there is one topic released, time for feedback, and then another topic released. And with the FSP here now, this system could help gather more feedback.

Any thoughts and opinions on the subject? I’d like to hear them, just please be constructive with your post. If this was all gibberish to you I’ll do my best to explain.

No thank you. Not only is 20 slot bags the maximum to my knowledge, there is no reason to assist players in such a way. Just keep it organized and you’re set.

I’m grateful to join the program and I hope to strengthen the relation between developers and community, make the forums a more informative place, and assisting others who need it.

Congratulations everyone else who was picked, and for any new people to the program welcome aboard

Good luck wolfey!!

In their defense, outfits were a HUGE thing in gw1. They just implemented it late for gw2.
But I do agree skins would be nice. Full sets too, not random gloves or boots.

Unfortunate for you, your answer is in the post you won’t read further into.

I’ve brought this to their attention. Hopefully they can figure it out if it is a problem.

I’d prefer this for when Cantha is remade for gw2. For now let them focus on fixes and content.

Hmm. I’d agree that Arena Net should probably look at their art bible once more.

Personally, I’d like to see all nodes on all maps, keeping the level requirement, but distributing it in such a way it reflects realistic statistics.

As others have stated:
1. This solution of yours is already a system that is been in the game since beta.
2. The issue at hand might be about your character not the game, gear, traits, skills, etc.
3. Perhaps you need to read up on your profession and learn the in and outs of the class.

I personally do not have any problem on any profession on any map at any level in this game, I have a level 60 ranger with 0 deaths, granted, the double exp weekend, crafting and boosters. And only having 2 maps completed but no deaths. :P

Please come back take the feedback we’ve given and give it another go! Also map complete usually is not the first thing people do after 80 but I give kudos to you for picking that of all things to do first!

here are some links to get you started on your new journey in Guild Wars 2: being a level 80.

http://metabattle.com/wiki/MetaBattle_Wiki – Gives you builds for all profession and game types.
http://www.gw2crafts.net/ – Gives you amazing guides for all crafting for normal or fast methods.
http://dulfy.net/category/gw2/class-guides-gw2/ – Gives you guides to nicely written and well developed build and profession guides in full detail.
http://dulfy.net/2014/04/23/event-timer/ – Gives you a timer on world bosses, this can help you gain money without needing to much gear advantage so you can save up on the gear.

As the title says, a Mantra for swiftness with two or so uses. the numbers for balancing I’m not sure of.

Personally I don’t see a “I earned this” from ascended gear, because you can just buy the emblem, and the two pieces and easily make the crystal. And for the most part 500 crafting isn’t that hard, as you can buy that too.

This is my opinion on the new system.
The Good:
Daily system takes a bit longer for newer players, this gives them more things to do; so they get stuck to the game more. Yet it lets veteran’s of the game finish it within an hour or so, depending on when events are going on.
The Bad:
The new system is clearly tailored to new players, with a small mix of veteran type of events. A good chunk of it is ‘map complete’ objectives, pvp and wvw type objectives; with the rare event or dungeon daily.
With the removal of monthly and the replacement of log-in rewards I feel the daily system was worsened. We use to get a laurel every time we got our daily done, now all we get is 10AP and some, usually mediocre reward. I personally feel boss event and pvp rewards are the only good and useful rewards from the daily, and those alone do not equal the old daily system’s reward.
I also feel the log-in reward, although nice, do not substitute the monthly-daily rewards. In the long run they out-reward daily and monthlies together, but that doesn’t mean they should have replaced them.

That being the unidentified lodestone and now bandit event. These are found under the “Current Events” tab in achievements. After unlocking them from the correct collection item.

• What is everyone’s opinion on these?
• Good/bad?
• More info in patch notes?
• Improvements?

Even though I’ve not done these events yet, my friends have and said it is something small but fun, and are happy to see another one pop up.

Thank you all for the time to respond, see you in-game or forums what have you.

I hadn’t touched WvW for a bit. But the way I see it, they are now how it was suppose to be.
They let you get your elite spec, they are soul bound, same as PvE. Play and gear the character you want to play. Why have an alt if you don’t play it.

If I recall correctly, they are trying to think of a way to make the season 1 living story more instance based then release it again to the public; like season 2.
As of now Season 1 isn’t able to be played because of that reason.

Simply stating they need one wont do much. Giving feedback would help more than stating it.

I don’t think there is a problem with their posture. They are much more bulky than charr from gw1. They’ve adapted to run faster on all fours now, so their body structure is more hunched over.

If this has been discussed for years, then you’d know that it was explained about 2 years ago in a post asking the same thing linking the same photo.

I’m still wondering why I can’t use my hammer to smash it open.

I think this would be great to see happen.

Personally, I feel you guys need to find a plan and stick with it. You’ve changed how and when you release content, how much and what type of content so much it is extremely inconsistent.

I think Quarterly Updates were a nice medium, if given enough content to make up for the lack of updates. Good luck with the new format I hope you find something you can stick with.

Welcome to “Too Many Characters Anonymous”.
We here would like to enroll you in our too many characters program.
I’ll be your guide. I myself have 20 characters and 15 of them are max level and ascended or exotic geared. While being here you enjoy the free refreshments annually. An empty wallet and a wardrobe the size of Texas. Along with countless hours of logging into each of them into farming maps.
We understand your side effects being, but not limited to;
1) lack of transmutation stones
2) lack of in game gold
3) having more than 2 of the same class and don’t know why.
4) Slight OCD problems with characters and their location on the log in screen.

We here at TMCA once more Welcome you, and your problems and will do our best to help you.

On a side note, I agree with JustaFleshWound and you should seek another game.

With all due respect, if you fully knew the skill mechanic hook strike wouldn’t of confused you.

I’ve played Daredevil plenty in stronghold and I can say the skills are perfectly fine as is.
And the reasoning I say its for you’re own good is because you gave no facts of why they need to be changed. You simply said they need to be changed to this, because it feels like it should. That is a personal statement.

One will use the versatile agony, while the other slot is for real agony (the drops you get in Fractals)

1. Hard time understanding the solution. You can keybind skill 2 as key 5 I you wanted it instead of skill 5. Just change it if need be for each character you play, or get use to that set up.
It is a lot of work yes, a lot more than pressing a button to have it do that. But it is a lot less work than programming that into the game engine.

2. Solid QoL change but I don’t see that being done in awhile as that is a subjective change.

3. Something would be cool, but while trying to reduce visual clutter I don’t think that solution is a good one. Perhaps better audio ques.

4. No please. If you die to quick sit back and watch the next time. Or maybe a YouTube video, or ask around answers are out there.

5. A rebalance of the entire game would be lovely to be honest.

I think you’re over reacting a little bit. Sure a whooping three weeks for a ring sounds devastating, but why rage when you can find other solutions? Infuse the ring and it is now a different ring, give to another character, play fractals for the rings, contact support- which you did

Don’t know something in the game? Such as Unique use the /wiki command and type /wiki Unique.

Lastly, quitting the game over spoiled milk is a sad excuse, take a deep breath and try looking at the problem created once more.

I also have this problem.

I’d like some AFK animations that sounds cool, especially the meditating one.
But generally isn’t the sleep/sit animations fitting for that purpose of afk animation?

And a DE Amazon listing if I recall correctly stated release 6/25/15. That didn’t happen clearly. I’m not expecting October. And I no longer spectate 8/26. I’d like to see a December release.

That would make the game have less replay value.
I’m 2200+ hours in the game with one map complete, and 18 characters, 9 level 80s. And I have no problem with the need to redo map complete.
Normally the option to do something is up to the user, but I feel in a community as lazy as this one is, everyone would be using it.

GW1 was fun and that had no waypoints, But dying would cause much frustration.

Just wondering, in the Solo portal tricks, which build is that? and is it completely updated to current balance patches?

Rising Dusk.2408:

Hey everyone! It’ll be good to work with the community to make sure all of the most important items for the dungeon and fractal groups get captured and constantly communicated with Anet’s team! I really look forward to helping bridge whatever gap there may be between the developers and the players.

Might want to check for spelling errors there my friend!

Adam and Eve aren’t a thing in gw2 so that isn’t relevant, but the Gods are and they magic the clothing on.

I don’t see the problem. Gw1 has achievements like this. And it seems they will be available after wintersday. Just play the game and enjoy it. No need to grind. Yes 10k is a lot but they will come in time.

@Altair – Thank you for a rough ratio. I don’t bother myself in that, just doing the content and seeing rewards at the end of the day is good enough for me haha.

As they said above.
Personally I’d prefer an April fools announcement that gliding is unlocked for everyone now. But it isn’t so a bunch of people try and fall to their death. That would be great.

Much better than King Kong dragon edition.

Anyone else want it back?

^ for anyone who did not log in during the Beta.

yeah sure that does not have a news feed or anything but it could be brought into it as there is PLENTY of space for things.

Well I THINK I can get some stuff from this thread. It is mostly banter back and forth but I saw some useful comments about other things.

free snacks in the office

Sounds like heaven.

Go google, Google. They have a free doctor, chef, gym. Almost anything you could imagine.

In terms of the management, I cannot say as I do not know personally how their management is, but I can say something feels like they’re managing like pin the tail on the donkey.

Plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz x9001
I want the beta log in screen so badly.

Lyssa Please! Goddess of Hotness. wait… do you see it? HOTness. release on HoT release please.

Umm.. She dies, flat out 100% dies.
We even kill an elder dragon after she dies.
We cannot go forward saying she is alive, after the PC and all of DE2.0 sees her die.

Straight out of the patch notes ,
“•There are returning and new permanent Wintersday achievements as well as new daily achievements.”
I’d assume it is to stay.

I think the Charr shout is worth using for my PS charr warrior.
But I’d love to see them get buffs.
