The Female Human epidemic

I asked my friend this question many years ago in GW1. his answer pretty much sums it up. That answer was (and I quote): “If i’m going to spend a thousand hours staring at my characters butt, it might as well be an attractive female one.”

Halloween items not availible anymore?

I hope the Halloween Mystic Forge recipes are still there (minus the chest) otherwise it’ll hurt the market for those halloween drop items (chattering skulls, etc.) and make them pointless until next year.

Collection slot for rare crafting materials?

I agree as well, should be storage for the rare crafting items. I was surprised there WASN’T one when i almost mailed it the first time I tried to deposit a shard. I don’t want one for the event items since that’s why I bought extra bank space however for shards and ecto (and slivers, etc.) they should have a proper spot in your bank.

Yeah until Grenth blows it up again at Wintersday, hehe.

Monthly Achievements Change

I agree with this. Nothing I hate more than having to go into WvW to get ganked over and over trying to get the monthly kills. And before you say, just join a zerg, I’ll point out that the server i’m on has had a bad habit of being on the receiving end of rival servers being loaded up with high-ranking guilds transferring in to run rampant on our lower ranked server. So it’s hard to zerg when you’re pinned against your own start spawn.

What would YOU like to see for Wintersday?

Should be a battle, zone by zone, for Grenth or Dwayna control. Where the players must beat out Grenth’s minions to allow control.

If Grenth wins: the map stays icy with his mobs running rampant for xxx amount of time. Grenth rewards happen.

If Dwayna wins: Spring happens as per normal, her rewards happen.

Why the Norn and Charr hate on the Clock Tower?

in Halloween Event

Stormlight.7568

The hate is simple: Norn players who have large flowing outfits that block the entire landing square with their clothes.

I’m not heaping hate on them, it’s just that when I first tried to do the tower there was this Norn elementalist with his witches broom and large flowing outfit that was so LARGE that I couldn’t see where to land ahead of me because he overlapped the entire landing area (and blocked the view trying to get there).

He pretty much laughed when people asked him to change to another outfit which caused a lot of rage quitting by other players. I’ll admit i was getting angry too since I’m bad at timed jumping puzzles especially when the in-game camera doesn’t help and these were must first tries at the tower. But i’ll wager this guy drove a dozen people away from trying that tower.

That’s why the hate for norn and other larger players wearing armor/outfits that purposely block other players from seeing stuff.

Speculation for Sunday's "Event"

You might be right. Had LA load up slow the other day and all the objects weren’t on screen and i discovered a medium sized hole under where the fountain is. (I couldn’t fall into it since the objects were really there just hadn’t loaded up).

So I wager that’s a good guess.

POLYMOCK

My suggestion for polymock, when it’s enabled in game, is that instead of using the system that was in GW1 it should use mini-pets instead.

I know people will say WoW does something like that, but I’m certain they took the idea from GW1 anyway.

This will create a purpose for mini’s in game and give them some increased game economy.

Ranger longbow misfiring at targets

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Stormlight.7568

Stormlight.7568

I select a target with my mouse, it’s highlighted and its health info appears at top of screen as normal BUT when I go to fire at it two things happen:

(1) My arrows streak off at the closest neutral or enemy target.
(2) The arrows thud straight down into the ground at my feet.

I’m finding it happening more and more in the last few days (started 3 days ago tops) and it’s making it hard for me to play as my ranger.

Personally I hope this wasn’t being done to try and stop the ranger bots which swarm orr and other areas. Anyone else having this problem?

1500 EST would be my guess since some holiday events start a noon PST.

Wealth Distribution

I’m afraid that the bot owners are stockpiling gems with their gains and driving prices up so they can make even more money.

Housing?

Having buildings that a guild can rent out to be their hall in the major cities would be nice. Just have it set that the “lease” needs to be renewed every few weeks and an auction happens for the monthly rights for that spot. Sort of like Kurz/Luxon posts being controlled by guilds. It’d be a good way for gold to be sunk back into the game.

Hey, at least we dont have bots in WvW. . . .. . .. uhh, nm.

Not access to a GM, but the ability to have their bot reports come up on the nearest GM’s screen. Plus if they player abuses it, it could come at the cost of losing Commander and thus be out 100g. Sort of like the HazMat Team members on Fallen Earth who give out temp chat bans to players who abuse it and answer help questions.

Future of Commander Title

Although I haven’t gotten the Commander Title, I was considering it and for 100g I thought it just wasn’t worth it yet. However, what would make it a good thing to get would be if eventually it was expanded into a multi-gold level sink class.

Give it the ability to unlock a Commander class with certain abilities that could come into play during WvW and PvE.

Another good feature would be to give Commanders a more direct pipeline to contacting a GM to help report bots or potential cheaters.

This adds more depth to the Commander title, the game, helps to take some money out of the economy AND helps Anet out in being able to deal with bots more efficiently.

(a) They should have GM’s hopping from zone to zone, and each WvW grounds. After all, a simple “Seen bots?” in chat will direct them to where they are.
(b) They should give Commanders an option to ping a GM to them. 100g for that title should give them the power to get higher power help. I also think Commanders should have their own class at some point too, but that’s down the road.
© They should make a bot banning achievement. Where if someone reports a bot and they get banned – that player gets 1 point to their Civic Duty Achievement title. Gives us players who actually stop to report a bot train (all 20 players) something for doing it.
