Good job adding boss timers for raids....

I am happy to see timers. Currently there are actually two metas for dungeons, the zerker meta and the tank gear max range auto attack meta. The latter had to die.

Courtyard is great.

More arena’s like courtyard should be created then given there own queue. Until then, leave it as it is.

GW2’s version of perm content is gem store skins…. and they release a lot. This is not going to change.

Dungeon boss glitching

everyone stacked in a corner and autoattacked for like 10 minutes… glitch or strategy? HHmmm, i guess strategy more than glitch.. but would be nice to see cheeze strategies fixed.

About this ‘no dungeon team’? did they lay off the dungeon devs?

Stacking isn’t a cheese strategy. It’s efficient. There is still good gameplay even when stacking. Also, you aren’t being very specific as to what encounter, just making some generalizations.

Good groups realize:
- You still need to dodge
- You can res downed players quickly
- You can share your boons/blast fields with your party
- You can remove team conditions
- You can hinder the group by putting down unwanted fields (I’m looking at you bad necros)

Bad groups think:
- You stack and spam 1>2>3>4>5 and 6 sometimes.

The dungeon was AC P3 i thnk… the end lizard. dodge? nope. 12345 and sometimes 6? nope. afk autoattck while smoking….

I wonder if anyone could tell me? How many bosses have this feature?

Your group may have made use of the serious Exploit&problem called using gear with “Healing power”, “Toughness” and “Vitality”.
In that case. All of the bosses. Make sure to report those players.

Refer to this video for a demonstration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PYsLU-efhhY

LOL, you posted all that and a video when I’m clearly talking about an exploit…. the boss was unable to hit us. Bored at work? I get it, me too… only reason im on this forum.

It’s not a glitch, its a feature.

That’s pretty funny, I guess…. for realz though, i don’t wanna have to ask everyone if they plan to glitch before runs. C’mon anet.

Depends on what boss and what strategy you’re using.

There are some actual glithces, but I think they are few, and probably more harmful glitches to the players than there are beneficial ones.

There are also a lot of strategies that people don’t like so they call them glitches, when in reality it’s just strategy.

7 Days Ban for Leavers

Slowburn.5319

Ban or debuff dont solve anything.
If you wanna really punish leavers, give them some big icon above their head so everyone see their shame:-) Some leavers leaderboards will be fun too. Also NPC in mists can yell leavers names.

Would be hilarious to hear npc’s mocking people for leaving matches!

pvp instructor: oh hey, look everyone… it’s so N so who qq’d and left… lol

7 Days Ban for Leavers

in PvP

Posted by: Slowburn.5319

Slowburn.5319

1) This is just a video game. Real life preempts it. You’ll discourage normal people with normal people priorities if you punish people for not being able to make it to a tourney they signed up for.

And what about the other four players who get their win/loss record tarnished because of the leavers/no shows?

Bottom line is, if you screw over an entire team in sPvP/tPvP you deserved to be punished, regardless the reason why you did it.

It is unfair to punish others trying to play the game for YOUR real life problems.

2)You can’t control people. Any harsh penalty will do more harm then good. Instead of tourneys popping with leavers sometimes, you’ll get a tourney system that takes 3 hours to pop.

I don’t see any correlation whatsoever between punishing leavers/no shows and an increase in queue times…. if anything making people stick to the tourney they signed up for should make rosters fill quicker… not the other way around.

A) Life sucks. Wear a hat. RL >This game. That will always be true.
B) You know what, you’re right. Just like the drug war has reduced the number of drug users in the USA, and the war on terror has reduced terrorism around the world, I’m sure harsher penalties on leavers will reduce their numbers and improve the overall quality of the queue.

It really isn’t too much to ask that a person has a reasonable expectation of finishing a match before joining… if you don’t think you’ll be able to finish, hotjoin. Pretty much all the suggestions in this thread acknowledge the accidental/incidental leaver and noone wants harsh penalties for these players… but currently there are way too many afk’rs and leavers and RL is not the reason.

oh, and i am wearing a hat

Slowburn.5319

Consideration would need to be taken for the untintentional disconnects.. power outage etc. The punishment ban could scale with repitition… first time 15 minutes (take the time to restart your router or whatever), second time in 24 hrs gets 1 hr (if really unintentional then take this hour to get your kitten right), 3rd time 24 hrs gets 24hr ban. And afking should be treated as match abandonment getting the treatment above. I also like the idea of showing the abandon matches in the players rating or leaderboard or whatev, like someone said above.

To clarify, the bans i mention above should only be for tpvp.

Posted by: Slowburn.5319

Slowburn.5319

Really needs to be a abandon match penalty of some kind. Someone either afks or just quits almost every match… if not on my team, then the other. Sux either way. Would be funny if the players with history of afking or abandoning were just matched against each other!! lol

Imagine the possibilities of allowing players/parties/guilds to challenge in the open world… keep the griefing at bay with toggle and limits to location. I think it would be VERY fun! I’d love battle players in the amazing PVE environments!

The arenas are a good start.

Dueling is fun! Just add a toggle for duel-ability and we can all be happy. While your at it, party v party and GvG ‘duels’ would be great too. Yes, there is the mist… but to challenge friends in the open world would be fantastic. (perhaps no duels in citys… ie. LA)

Adding features can only help the longevity of the game. If there was truely a consensus against duels.. would this thread and the thousands of others even exist?

Being angry that larger guilds can earn more influence than a smaller one, hence buy better stuff,in this case missions… is unjustified and wrong. From the beginning the tools were present to grow a healthy size guild…politics. For a guild to choose not to use the tools and stay small and to then complain that they can’t collect the rewards? What?!?

Personally, I don’t care for dailies… I sign on, run some dungeons with my guild, do some wvw…whatever I want. But I never seek out dailies… The point you ask? I don’t expect to have a bank full of laurels!!! This is how things work! Yes you can play the game anyway you want, I for one encourage this!.. but don’t complain if you choose not to seek out a reward! What do you think? We should all jsut be issued all available game rewards at first logon? Regardless of time, effort, strategy etc….

Thank you,
Slowburn

World Map Completion/WvW

Posted by: Slowburn.5319

Slowburn.5319

I think some people are missing the point that me being in WvW is only helping the opposing servers and hindering my own.

Been trying to tell these induhviduals that for months but it never sinks in. Guess that’s fine for everyone but your own server, which is why they have kitten all to say about it.

Camp those server spots and be as useless as you can be. That’s what map completion is all about. Glad it’s optional so I can pretend that I’m actually there of my own volition and not just wasting my time, in addition to that of my “team”.

Guess you should have bought a game that was %100 pve then.

Not against a taunt at all…

Personally, i don’t really do the rez faster than damage thing too much though… you can knock-back then stun… kite away, invis, then blink back etc. There are tons of possiblities depending on your setup that can be of use in this situation.
