Guild Wars 2

I was lucky enough to try events without bugs and event breaks(Currently my server is bugged though), so I base my feedback on that.

OUTPOSTS, ADVENTURES AND MAP
I love the concept of outposts and how it feels ingame, but again — it’s not introduced to players how it should be.

Map actually is divided into important regions where events belongs to the particular Outposts and completing them contributes to the Outpost progressing and unlocking appropriate merchants and adventures, but game does not teach you that and in result we have dozens of people who wandering around beautiful zone and don’t understand what they are doing and why adventure is still locked.

It would be useful to notify player when they are inside Outpost, some flash text for a couple of seconds like in Skyrim.

Little bar in the top-right screen is not enough to help players to understand what is going on. I propose some Map updates so people will understand where exactly they are, what they are doing and what they will get if they are participating in Outpost progression.

NOT ENOUGH VISUAL CUES IN COMBAT
I feel like developers tried to bump difficulty and add more intricate mechanics than simple facerubbing, but it backslashes a little bit. There are new ways to deal with enemies and if player want to find them – he will, but a lot of people was not aware of this new stuff and tried to face rub(Husks event with sniper rifle and defiance… brrbrr)

IMHO there is not enough of visual cues for players to highlight that stuff has changed and you have to use something else then “Stand still & press1 repeatedly”.

Crazy burst mushrooms, packed raptors, one-shotting mordrem hunters are nice, but for ordinary player they all looks like ordinary PvE monsters which suddenly behave like something else and players don’t understand what is going on and get frustrated while keep their “Stand still & press1 repeatedly” because they can’t figure out what to do.

For example event with glowing red husks and sniper rifle — me with a couple of other players figures out that you have to break defiance bar before striking with sniper rifle, but ~10-20 players were hanging out near rifles and waiting while husks became vulnerable to kill them in melee, thus making event just suuuper long!

Hey guys, seems like Feature pack page is broken – April and September feature pack tabs are gone, only little menu is still here :<

It is obviously not the same mechanic as taunt in other mmorpgs, but most of the people will ignore that simple fact and WILL be 100% sure that trinity in pure form is returned in GW2.

I think simple renaming to “Anger” or something like that will help to avoid confusion.

It would be weird, because damaging npc is the main purpose of treb in Stronghold

Sigh It just a placeholder. They can’t select “No release date”, so they select last day of the year.

It’s pretty funny to see how you’re twisting everything from real interviews to make it looks bad, continue please!

• If there is an instance where you loose your skills or pickup an item you could regain them by clicking the tonic. You could use them for skipping certain content. Other tonics don’t work because you will not retain your skills while using them.

• There was a particular funny bug with it where you could use it to get underneath a map of any dungeon if you know where to use it.

Only in GW2 whinarium!

THIS NEW DRAGON JUST RESKINNED TEQUATL WTF

OTHER DRAGONS ARE UNIQUE WHY THIS LOOKS LIKE TEQUATL?

All of the dragon bosses use the same basic model, for the record.

Emm, it was a joke. If you have not noticed Anise did not listened him and Canach started to talk crazy to check her reaction.

It is necro and not an issue.
Now you can level up your PvP only chars with Tomes of knowledge.

I’m sure they are keep epic battles for latter episodes.

And YOU are talking about “Respect the community”?
What an irony

I would say no.
Just stay away from holes and dodge/put stability on if you are in risky region of the map.
However, I don’t like skyhammer in skahammer map
I think there should be only one feature in each map and Skyhammer map has Mobility[Jump pods + Removable Holes] + Skyhammer.

First of all, I believe that GvG concept is pretty covered in GW2 by WvW and this is a solid reason to not implement that type of PvP.
However, I feel lack of something like HA in sPvP.
Current sPvP is too… stale, there is no progression completely. Solo Q, Team Q, Hotjoin represent same concept of single match and it is the only concept we have.
Earlier we had some tourney with steps, but they were removed for some reason and we get nothing in return.
It seems strange for me that after 7 years of developement we have only “Single match – Conquest”

style.6173:

If skyhammer or spirit watch pop-up, quit the game and do something else for 15 minutes. Problem solved.

Note: Only works for people who do not care about the leaderboards or their W/L and just play to ruin the fun for teammates

Fixed for you.

On a serious note – there should ban from PvP for week or so for behaviour like this.

- Skipping is fun and challenging .

Golden words!

Previous balance patch was in April, I don’t think there will be another major balance patch soon

Are you satisfied with current Loot system in Guild Wars 2?
What is the best feature of Loot system and what is the worst?
What could be improved?

For game itself and player base I think it is perfect point of difficulty.
However, I want want some more challenging achievment :P

And guys, seriously, are you from xx century?
Challenge is not about gear/equipment, it’s about HOW you play to win.
Achievments are not tied to BEST MAX DPS GEAR and lowering equipment is not making game fun at all.
Liadri with orb achievment made me THINK how to overcome this problem, some other achievment with 5 gambits and 2 bosses – too.

Stop comparing real difficulty with dps race and advicing to take off armor. It’s just childhood.

Taimi is arrogant asura child who care not so much about all this death. And she even did not know this Belinda.
But she have found a lab of the most “cool” person in her life and she have found machine that allows to understand The Eternal Alchemy
And you want to bend this character to became sad? For what reason? It’s not how naturally this character would behave. Everyone else is sad, she is not, until someone close to her dies.
Did not you have noticed how other asura behave in such situations?

You have multiple choices:
1) Keep auto-attacking and die
2) Strip Retaliation boon and kill
3) Use condition damage instead of direct damage and kill
4) Use healing build and heal everyone, include youself and some newbies and don’t die!

There were peaceful centaurs in LA before Scarlet attack
We know about Ventari from wink-wink Maguuma Jungle
Plus, try to talk with some of them – there is dialogs like WTF Y R NOT TRYING TO KILL ME
I don’t see “oversights”

Sors Immani.8429:

I still can’t break the feeling that the “Eternal Alchemy” is connected to the Realm of Torment.

I belive Gods of Tyria designed Realm of Torment after Eternal Alchemy structure

I know my opinion is not popular, but I like it how it is now.
I like when skins tied to some specific event or location and you can say by character look what is he doing.
Like fractal runners, dungeon runners, PvPers and so on.
When everything could be sold/bought it just a matter of money

Emm, Kasmeer spawning a tons of illusions to distract enemies and Marjory spawning a tons of minions.
Assassins blinds you, evades attacks and hide themselves from time to time, but they are squishy
Golemancer are casting hard AoE, but easy to interrupt and they are squishy
Golems are stationary, just keep distance
Wolves attacks are weak if they are in front of you
Husks are super-vulnerable to condition damage
Thrasher are vulnerable if you attack them from behind

Modremoth minions are condition-damage based, they will torment you very heavily, you bring condition-cleanse or simply die.

If you are too squishy it does not mean that monsters are overpowered, it simply means that you should swap your gear to knight, if you can’t keep the pace of berserker gear.

Change your stats and skills to more defensive.

Use food, potions and sharpening stones

Just make somewhat that looks like an effort to proceed.

Just choose manually S2E2 in journal and you will get a mail

I had exotic and rares shrugs

For those who unaware – Mordremoth vines slowly grows and “captures” waypoints,
I’ve made a short immersive video to show what is happening while we are farming sand!

BlackyWarsX.5384:

They tangle around the waypoints as well now

Yeah and they are have new locations in Brisband Wildlands

This whinarium is hilarious =D

Mashedpotato.3126:

I cannot do this. You simply cannot beat down the 2 Inquest assassins solo. My two “friends” just sit down below while I get my kitten beaten. Playing as an Ele, I am just a pin cushion for them, and since they’re chained you can’t get one alone and take it down. As a clothie, they wade in and just beat you down before you can do anything.

Complete dead end.

Use Glyph of storms with earth enchantment, it will blind them almost constantly

NICE TRY GOLDSELLER
(Joke)
(Probably)

Join organized group and you will get your kill daily
If EU – http://gw2community.com/

Yeah) I was shocked by amount of people, tbh. I can run caravans to Claypool with groups of people, again! Like in old beta times!

Brother Grimm.5176:

Zodiac was a GW1 set from Factions so at least the NAME is fully lore friendly.

You do understand that the gem store is the only method of income Anet has besides new game sales….right? I’m not saying your request is unreasonable, but on the other hand they DO need to make money for the game to stay online.

I think you miss the point. The problem is that new armor doesn’t fit global theme at all and there is no connection betweeen game and new armor.
Good example:
New Pact armor
New Maguuma Jungle themed armor
New Seraph armor
etc

Dunno, PvE is slowly regenerating right now and I want to heal it completely!

Thanks to Megaserver system – we have MUCH more people on same server and they’re doing events, but players tend to drop event after finishing, despite the fact that event is part of CHAIN.
Event chain is the core of open world PvE. It manages player flow on the map, but game doesn’t have visual indication of chains to help players to understand what is going on, some people don’t know about existence of chains and game doesn’t teach players.

wKmike.6318:

You have the option to use the skin immediately or store it in the bank. If you put it in the bank, you have to use charges to change it.

I used mine immediately without using any charges.

I’d actually say this is a valid complaint.

Before the new system, you didn’t need to use trans stones to apply the skin. I think these bought skins should have at least one use.

They has 1 free use. If you right click them you will see 2 options – use free transmute or store in wardrobe. And if you choose second options there will be a warning that you will lose this free transmute. If you use free transmute this armor will be automatically added to wardrobe.

Umm, but there is no green rings. There is red rings and white rings and they’re have different animations

Oh. It was Chitaritta p_q

I have 100% on every map, including WvW, but I’m missing 1 PoI, 1 skillpoint and 1 vista.
Any thoughts WHERE it can be? 0_0
Triple checked every location and still can’t find those

Come ooooon. Is there some secret society, dedicated to create threads about mounts every kitten day? 0_o

Nage.1520:

This can’t be possible. Some big new MMO launched and it was going to be the end of the world. The game must be completely dead and everyone else must have left to play that new game.

I’m guessing it’s the WvW league that has people rolling in. Remember today was reset day.

Yup! They hate GW2 so much now that they actually hacked servers and deletes their accounts from database!

maxwell.4873:

none of these america servers is FULL today when i logged in today,for what i remembered since last few months at least three of american servers are FULL,is it because of the megaserver system or something else happened?

WvW migration probably

So now we don’t even know where it will be?
Or we will understand this by closed waypoints?

Well, it’s 25$ now, maybe it’s a little bit better?

I think you will get account bound unidentified dyes.

I think ANYTHING else will be better than perma-closed waypoints :|

You can re-choose! At 12k ap or so

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Also, each item allows you to right-click on it to unlock it, maybe that option will be greyed-out if it is already unlocked.

That will help, but the way I charge through WvW, I end up salvaging 10-15 items roughly every half hour. If there was something just on the tooltip telling me if it was unlocked or not, that would make it easier than just right-clicking every item before salvaging them.

Granted, that’s a really minor thing to be inconvenienced by, but the amount of time i spend salvaging would cause it to really, really add up.

Skins can be unlocked by using consumables, equipping items, salvaging equipment, or right-clicking on equipment and account-binding it.
