This is a legit question guys, stop over reacting by being little kids. He is not saying he intends too, just wondering if their is a punishment. I mean I could walk into my guild bank take everything and leave – its like if I left my game running, my mom came and took all my gear for her self.

Anet should Ban, perma and IP (NOT just punish) those who steal.

Well, I’m not saying it’s right, but actually I don’t think it is bannable because I would think it would be up to the guildmaster/officers to decide what should and shouldn’t be available to new guild recruits.

Leaving it wide open like that is just asking for an idiot to take things and leave.

Crappy as it is, I don’t think it goes against ToS.

Indeed.

If the player at hand have access to withdraw funds from the guild bank it’s because he was allowed to do so. Although it’s a crappy thing to do, it’s not a bannable offense!
Also, there are 2 layers of bank access, “Guild Stash” and the “Guild Treasure Trove”, so it’s up to the guild leader to have the gold and crucial items secured in the trove!

Trust is the key factor! Only give access to those who you trust!
But bannable or not, it’s still a gigantic bad thing to do!

like I stated, amend the TOS and ban them

/thread. We will know WHEN and only WHEN they tell us. NOT before.

These combos would seem weird to me:

Asura- Warrior, Guardian
Norn- Thief, Mesmer, Necro, Engineer, Male Elementalist
Charr- Mesmer, Thief, Necro
Human- None
Sylvari- Engineer

Male Elementalist – go up north and fight the sons of something or other. they are norn, male elementalists

I think it should be. really.

Sky.7610:

This game is suppose to be play how you want and I love that BUT i do not like the dailies because I don’t want to “slay 40 monsters at X” or “kill 10 enemes in WvW”. Granted, I am not forced to do them but I am certainly punish if I don’t and I think that’s quite unfair in a “play how you want” game.

How exactly am I punished? Economically. Everyone who completes the dailies gets some silvers + mystic coin + a Jar of karma accompanied by some experience.

I have no problem with the fact that players are being rewarded for playing in a certain way but I do have a problem when that reward directly punish people who don’t. What this means is that gold will be inflated(thanks to money and coin reward + karma conversion to gold) and thus, the people who completes dailies will NEGATIVELY impact others who don’t.

Experience and achievement points are okay because it directly reward the intended player but does not negatively impact others, unlike the monetary reward.

Thoughts?

oO…….oO……Oo………SERIOUSLY?

I don’t see your logic. I really don’t. Dailies are all about allowing you to play how you wan’t. The only thing your missing out on is laurels….

DO not release an expansion for at least 5 years. Make sure your game is SOOOOOO perfect, SOOO stable that the player base CANNOT complain. then break it

no its a very good idea, im tired of all these new currencies

Wow there was a lot of tolling a a lot of eletisim and a lot of hating and some good ideas.

Karma should be 300k for a peice, 40 gold for a peice, regular laurel price or ‘find in guild missions, fractals and dungeons’

This allows “play as you want”

what would the weapon set be DD/S?

Please allow all ascended items to be bought with laurels.

I don’t think its fair that hard core players who do Guild missions, fractals and such get all the ascended we Caucasus who only have time to do our dailies and get laurels – don’t. That is to say I think all ascended items should be able to be bought from laurel vendors.

thoughts?

Also, I think as of right now you can only get SOME from laurels and not all…. while yes it promotes a reason to do content, maybe hand out laurels as regardless instead of ascended gear – regardless of drop rate.

So I HAVE….HAVE….to participate in guild based activities to get ALL the ascended gear released?

critickitten.1498:

I have concerns about this post.

Mainly because it doesn’t actually sound like culling has been “eliminated”. It just sounds like you’ve found a way to shift most of the burden of how culling is implemented onto the player’s own PC. The “options” presented in that post really heavily imply that the player is going to be expected to figure out how high (or low) their own graphical settings will allow them to go. For example, someone with very high end specs may be able to put their culling limit high (50 people or more), whereas people who are only slightly above the game’s min specs will have to drop their culling limit much lower or else play the game with nameplates only. And, at least to me, that doesn’t suggest culling is gone, only that you’ve found a way to make the player decide how much culling they want to put up with.

I hope I’m wrong but I can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong with the way this has been presented. Culling really isn’t something that just switches on and off. And this post seems to imply that, rather than culling actually being removed, players will be expected to pick how much or how little culling they want to experience. And I’m pretty sure most people would rather not have any. So I think this may end up not being the wonderful “death of culling” that it’s being presented as….but hopefully I’m wrong.

so, who cares. they have fixed the issue, its the players problem now. they stated when this game was released that over time you may nee a better machine to run the game and this may be an example of that.

What would you recommend for a DPS based Ele with little in the way of support

I will never get my monthly, I dont have time to do 80 events.

I got mine done in one night in WvW. A normal player could do it in WvW in maybe 2 nights.

I hate WvW Im so bad at PVP I was actually kicked from my guild….

Buy ascended gear through laurels and be effective in fractals of higher levels? or do I NEED to do guild stuff and fractals to get the VERY BEST OF THE BEST in order to be ready for higher level fractals?

I love the story. good job anet

I will never get my monthly, I dont have time to do 80 events.

to you as a player you are suppose to feel like “ya I saved this village”

see https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/riding-gear-and-hoodies-over-keys

/close thread

I think it would be awesome if we had a dungeon finder or even a fractal finder where it matched you with people of even level for fractals.

Um….I don’t see the point to this new “stuff” in the BLTC. Why not release keys at like half price (not that they are expensive) – does any one buy this stuff? – I bought the haloween costume but thats it

I just want a full set of (2 rings and then one of everything else) im not sure why you need 30+ lol.

Martin Kerstein.3071:

This isn’t actual news, it is something we have mentioned multiple times before. As the original interview says, and I quote:
“Expansions are definitely something that we’ll potentially look at in the future,” he explained. “We don’t have a timetable on it. We’re open to it, but I think our major focus as a studio is making the living world concept as strong as possibly can for the players that we’ve got.”

No one said we will never do an expansion, all Colin says (again) is that we are currently focusing on Living Story and other ongoing to the live game.

this sounds more like "no expansion for a couple years, so every one take a break while we push out tiny tiny amounts of content you can do in under an hour. Your living story is an example of this, I fished it under an hour…..an hour people….You should release something bigger, more ambitious……

I don’t have any ascended how about you give me some LOL. Why would you ever need more then maybe 4?

It’s the best place ever right now.

You DONT have to do dailies. why does this affect you?

The Magic Wombat.5170:

OK, I am going to try and remain positive here, since we are supposed to offer constructive criticism…

The entire concept of allowing mobs to go invulnerable while still dealing damage in the middle of battle is probably the WORST mechanic I have ever seen in a game. And a “positive” step would be to remove it.

I don’t mind dying when I bite off more than I can chew, because that is my own fault. But this whole “invulnerable mob” aspect has gone way too far. We are engaged in battle. I and my allies are fighting for our lives. A mob, usually a ranged mob, is picking us off. I go over to engage it, and it is invulnerable. Not just hard to fight, but hitting pops up that red “INVULNERABLE” message. We now face a decision—a rather fast decision needing to be made—abandon the event fast enough to not wipe—if possible—or to simply wipe.

Wow, what a KEWL design!

I would love to see ANY developer justify this. Come on into the forums and explain how this enhances the game. Explain how making a fight impossible to win makes for a fun game. Isn’t it enough that my true level has been nerfed to compensate and make it more challenging? Isn’t it enough that I have been over-nerfed so I am now lowered to beneath the mob’s level? Must you also make the mob go into God mode?

Again, I would LOVE to see a Dev justify this.

And, again, since I am required to offer positive criticism, I am positively certain a positive step would be to take mob invulnerability in battle and positively eliminate it.

Bad enough I must have suffer through a red mob appearing, pop my best attack on a long timer on it only to find out it is invulnerable until the 4 seconds of scripted dialogue are completed and I must, like in a bad re-edit of Star Wars, wait for the bad guy to fire first… Keep that if you must, but loose the random mandatory fight loss.

You dont understand the mechanics of the game at all. when an event ends and enemies run away, when a boss isn’t ready to fight you, when he drops the hammer in fractals. This is the logic.

armaduras.8972:

Currently, Lion’s Arch looks like a Refugee Village. Some of the early concept art for Lion’s Arch made it look Grand, yet what we are stuck with now are ruins of old ships, makeshift bridges and run down shacks. Will Lion’s Arch Improve with each expansion? Will the Multiracial Experiment that is Lion’s Arch bloom into a full fledged city? Will it actually evolve over time?

I played GW1 since 2005, I know that the old Lion’s Arch wasn’t much of anything but, in GW2 it is suppose to be this great experimental city where all the races, tolerate each other.

Let me ask my anet father – oh wait…….

no one knows /thread

Majora.6028:

This is my opinion, based off my experiences.

I used to enjoy AC. I didn’t care for the armor, but I liked doing the runs. It was pretty chill. A nice way for me to kill an hour and spend some time on Skype with my friends.

Now?

Now, I find, AC to be a mass of burning hell and anger. EVERYTHING is buffed. I’ve run with atleast 4 different groups, 2 of which were all on Skype coordinating our moves (We’re usually extremely good at group events and can overcome most things.) and they’ve taken atleast 2-3 hours. The last of which took 4 hours, and we didn’t even finish. I just left to go CoF.

This is a bit extreme. Granted, some of you guys may do much better, the point being is it had NO need to be buffed to this degree. I shouldn’t need to worry about running from the Waypoint to the Howler King without dying. I never worried about that before. I could easily make it, without even getting hit. Now I’m lucky to make that first left turn without 15 things tackling my kitten to the ground. Oh, dodge roll, you might say. We all did. Everyone but the thief got their kitten handed to them.

I understand that the “If you don’t like it, don’t do it.” rule applies, but once again, the principle of it is that it is far too buffed now. It takes far too long. It needs to be brought back down..

#Begin trolling/flaming/whatever.

Your builds need to be specific, you lit need the holy trinity for this dungeon. If you dont have specific exotic gear, specific builds, specific players you doing it wrong.

lothefallen.7081:

Do people find zerging and DPS race with no tangible, individual effectiveness fun in MMO gaming?

This is all that I read, TL:DR should be mandatory for long posts.

To answer, yes they do.

I am curious as to what I am doing wrong, I am currently using a staff, for the AOE damage, and I cant even take on creatures my own level or one above me. With a mes I could, and often did – with out dying as much.

I switch between fire and earth the most, making sure to do aoe, cripple and slow you down. water for quick healing along with #6 and the skill slots I have unlocked I use a shield that if blocks 3 hits explodes and mist form.

I cant take on vetrens of level 6 with out dying. I cant take on ascalon ghosts (im a char) with out dying. I can’t essentially do anything or I die in three maybe 4 hits.

Ideas? I have like 2 or 3 traits….

I have a level 80 mes so I am not new to the game, just the class.

Humans….according to the lore, either came to the continent from another place or that they came from another planet.

If the later is true, why are we in the middle ages? why are we in the steam punk era? where is the mother ship and why are we here?

If the first is true, what continent did we come from? elona is too much like africa, and cantha is too much like aisa and tyrians are whiter and ghosts….

Are there other lands we have yet to ever see?

if not, are there other planets?

no they won’t it should have been released by now but they havent so they wont release it. dont fight me on it

i doubt any of this is true /thread

brad pitt – end of troll comment

This will never be implemented.

Mesmers have NOTHING to fear we are the most UP (under powered) class in the game. I find my shatter build does NOTHING compared to the severly OP ele who needs to be nerfed into oblivion.

wow apparently some of you failed to see the point:

let me make this real simple for ya’ll:

We are on a gear treadmill, on a SLOW implementation gear treadmill, while weapons and armour are not introduced, soon they will be.

ya’ll following? should I back up?

With this treadmill on slow ascended was suppose to be – before legendary, how ever ascended is easy to get from fractals and laurels, I would assume. with more and more players getting ascended – what is next? after they release weapons and armour. what is next?

They will release more types of gear simply because only that 1-3% of the community will ever get a legendary.

well don’t post uneducated posts. you know full well that ascended was released because exotic was to easy to get and legendary is for the very FEW % and you know kitten well there will be more gear types in the future.

/thread

fractals = AR = ascended gear = challange = close thread.

common, uncommon, master work, exotic, ascended………something…….more something….legendary

they said they made ascended to “fill the gap between exotic and legendary” well ascended is now easy to get, as easy as exotic (from what I am reading and seeing, I personally haven’t tried accept through laurels which I’m saving till I get 500)

so what’s next? don’t tell me they won’t release something after ascended case we know they will….once on a treadmill, no matter how slow you go, always on a treadmill.

I mean also think about it, legendary is for he very few %, the very few that can put hours and hours and days and months into the game – according to anet. so im sure they will continue this treadmill path

I am looking to move servers, I would like a high populated one and I was thinking TC but if its the rp server, its not for me. I don’t RP. I like high pop, busy guilds, lost of people to run dungeons with and currently im on magguma – but I don’t quite like the server. It seems almost dead. So I am looking to move.

Where would you suggest a casual looking for lots of people to go to? is TC a good server

I wouldnt even try to compare as a mesmer has more flexabillity in power then a ele. All ele’s are DD/S builds. where as mesmers have a wider range of builds – I know this, I play both.

Ascened = Ar which is REQUIRED for fractals
