Guild Wars 2

Valkyriez.6578:

I can’t really be bothered argueing the point, but downstate threads have been done to death in this forum since beta.

Some like it, some hate it and some don’t care either way.

The important thing to remember, is that Arena net loves it and I highly doubt it or any part of downstate and how it works will change besides very minute adjustments.

Best get used to it and roll with it, they won’t change it regardless IMO.

The downed State is one of many reasons I quit playing this game.
ArenaNet can “Love” The downed state all they want, Its not going to make me Hate it any less, Downed state is Unbalanced and Game breaking to me and Unless it is either changed in a way that makes the game more balanced or removed I will not be coming back, There are plenty of other games I can enjoy instead of wasting time “just rolling with it” and Im sure there are plenty of other people just like me, so If ArenaNet doesn’t mind losing that chunk of its players then by all means, keep on loving it all you want.
Just my take on it.

Something that I have found makes the world dragons way too easy, and in fact impossible to fail at is the fact that there are waypoints sitting right next to them. Having a waypoint right next to where the event happens is a horrible idea because even if nearly everyone in the event is going down they can simply use the waypoint and jump right in. Something should be done that makes the waypoints not so exploitable in these events, like if a player uses said waypoint and jumps back into the fight the dragon is invulnerable for a certain period of time to that players attacks, this would at least add a feeling of challenge to the fight if nothing else, because if I don’t feel like there is any possibility of failure if something goes wrong, then there is never a sense of accomplishment in defeating one of these enormous dragons.
