New RNG Boxes (Ones that I'd buy!)

Now I’d like to say, I understand RNG can not be just done away with. It is very profitable for ANET, and I like giving ANET money, and like other people giving ANET money too. Its how they stay afloat and give us all the awesome stuff in GW2 that we all love and enjoy.

New RNG Boxes! A Different kind of luck.

The current Model goes as following…
You obtain via Drops/Gems/Gold RNG Boxes.
You open X Number of Boxes. (X being 5… or 80, what ever it takes)
You stop opening Boxes because you finally got the Weapon Skin Ticket.
You turn it in and you’re happy.

My RNG Box Model Idea.
You obtain via Drops/Gems/Gold like before.
5% Chance; Boxes Drop a Random Non-Account/Soulbound Weapon Skin.
(This means on average within 20 you should get a random skin)
Boxes do still drop ‘trash items’
Boxes have an incredibly low chance to drop something special ONLY obtainable via this box.. That IS soul/account bound.

No one loses, everyone wins.
No more feeling sad/stupid because you bought gems to gamble.

Also, Anet is not stupid and they do have data – which we don’t. Clearly they found that directly selling weapon skins (like they did during Winter’s Day) did not work]

It didnt work because those skins were absolutely ugly.
Do you see anyone using them? No. Case closed on that one.

How many Braham and Rox weapons do you see around? A Good chung. Case closed again.


Idea for a fair RNG Box.

These boxes could give you 1 random weapon skin (not a ticket an actual skin).
The rate would be about 1 every 10 boxes. (10% chance)
These skins can be traded, so if you got one you didnt like/need you werent at a total loss, rather than farming/buying 40+
However, if you still wanted to you could, because maybe you were collecting to sell later or something, actually still giving ANET revenue..

I’m not boycotting skins.

I’m boycotting Pay for RNG.
I don’t have a problem paying. I want to support ANET, I know they need it, this games free. However, I dont like paying for nothing in return. (or something I seemingly shouldnt have to even pay for, aka karka shells and flowers >.>)

Suggestion. Keep the boxes rng like they are, but put them on the mobs so people have desire to farm!
Put the Tickets in the Gem Store for $10 a ticket. they’ll sell like candy!
People need to feel like they need to ’’deserve’’ that rare item? Put something super secret are rare in the RNG boxes then.. Like the shoulders or something.

Its that simple to make us happy. Don’t over complicate things.

How do you feel about Southsun now?

So… My topic got merged with this one.
I just wanted to describe real fast what my topic was about…

Basically, I was lucky to only have invested 10 dollars into these chests, and had 20gold to spare topping off the extra 400gems to get 1200, enough for 10 Crates.

Upon opening these crates, and discussing my findings with other people who had done the same we all quickly became discouraged. I’ve yet to see a single person with these new SS Skins.

Basically… I’m not going to spend any more of my money on supporting Anet with their Incredibly low, All Risk – No Gain, Gem Chest items. And I believe if you don’t either, eventually they’ll give us what we want. More set ups like Braham and Rox, where you can just buy it if you wish to..
I do say however, that I do love how we can farm for these crates. I have found about 7 so far.. In 15hours of farming. RNG within RNG.. Very clever..

But yeah.. I’m no spending money on stuff like this again, you shouldnt if you havent already.. And I’m going to make PSA about how others shouldnt too, because its just a gamble that is NOT in our favor.

No one wants to spend our hard earned money on a video game, and NOT feel excited and happy afterward.
So why should we?

And no. No one forced me to do it. But I common sense told me, hey.. These things costs like 2 dollars a Crate. Something Goods inside! JOKES!!! Only Stuff I could of Farmed in a Matter of Minutes per Crate… (for the most part)

I do like the rarity, but this is NOT the model I enjoy.

Boycott starts now please. Just don’t invest in RNG. Good day.

Let the boycott begin!

Was tempted to waste some gold into this, just because i like some of the skins HOWEVER, after reading alot of comments by people who have bought anyway regardless of their hatred for RNG im gonna sacrifice the eye weps in favour of boycott. Hopefully one day, everyone else will follow and the RNG chests can be scrapped.

I’m happy I can get a crate drop every 1-4 hours of farming.
That is not that bad of a design to get a ’’rare’’ skin and make it still feel ’’rare’’

However paying to get a chance.. PAYING.. for a CHANCE… is just ridiculous when you end up spending next to 60 dollars just to be as cool as the lucky guy who farmed for 2 hours and got it.

RNG.. We will vanquish you!

I’ve been with this gaming company for a very long time. I support and enjoy them very much.
But RNG on real money purchases needs to stop. And that is 1 thing I will not support. I’ll boycott. :/

we’re just arguing opinions about this. And there is no sense in that.

I do truely believe they could have something else other than this unfair rng. And no. I wasnt forced to try the boxes. But I did get discouraged severely from them. And I was unhappy with the results.. I just invested money in this game. Why am I sad and upset from it? That should not be the outcome. But unfortunately me and others have this result.

but like i said. I’m not investing another penny into these rng boxes. and I’ll spread the word to warn others not too either. because this really sucks.

I havent seen 1 player with any of the skins yet. But I’ve heard dozens complain on how expensive these crates are compared to the others, and how yes some people opened, 5, 10, 20, 30, or even 40 with no success.

You shouldnt be opening 40 (1200×4= 4800gem = $60 USD at 800=10USD) spending 60 dollars, for a chance at a skin you want in a game.

I loved the Rox’s and Braham skin set where if you wanted them.. 10 dollars a skin. If you wanted both thats 20, that simple.
Not any of this dishartening RNG crap.

This was the first time i spent money on RNG, and the last time. Thats my experience from this, and I just wanted to share it on the forum to let Anet know.

I noticed they changed my, and other players complaint titles. So they do infact understand that they’re getting negative reviews. That is step 1 of getting rid of them.

I dont want sympathy. I never asked for that once.
I just want everyone to know what a waste it is, and if this is ANET’s plan to support their game, then forget it, they need a new plan.

I dont mind paying 10 dollars for the exact skin I want. But paying over 10 dollars for a low chance at a skin I might get… yeah not ever doing that again.
^Thats what I wanted people to see. How silly that sounds.
I just was hopping this time the chances were not as bad. But they are.

Luckily i’ve gotten 4 to drop within about 9-10 hours of farming…. But still nothing.

For the price of $10 aka 800 gems, I’d expect at least 15 crates, so at least I don’t feel half as humiliated.

It takes 30minutes to get some Flowers and Karka Shells that these 10 crates would give, plus maybe they’d of dropped a free crate themselves.

When You put Braham and Rox’s weapons in the gem store to directly buy them, I thought you learned your players hated feeling discouraged with the Low chance at Fused weapons and such.. But apparently not.

I’m not trying to complain, but its hard not to when I feel as ripped off. I’m just saying, you wont see me, or anyone I tell this to, spending any gems on these or future chests.
I’m happy I paid for the Deluxe Version of this game, it is a great game.
But I am unhappy with this extra $10 dollar (Plus about 20gold) investment I made on these crates. I am happy however, it was only a small investment.

Good day,

I’m a long time veteran of MMO’s.. played nearly all since M59 and spent years playing MUDs before that and have never, ever had and close to so much difficulty enjoying a game as this.

Step 1 of Guild Wars 2.
Forget how you played every other MMO, because this isn’t any other MMO, this is GW2.

You’re an Elementalist. You have the Lowest HP and Armor possibilities.
You should be focusing on keeping your range, saving your dodges for projectiles, figuring out a way to gain Vigor, or other ways to increase your Dodge Recovery rate, and stack on Power and Critical/Condition Damage. Everything you look at will be on fire or bleeding. Play to your strengths. And above all, keep moving.

P.S. I have about 10 years of MMORPG experience. I currently main a warrior in this game. Every profession plays differently.. If I was to stack all power as a warrior It’d be suicide. I’m up in a Mobs face, as you’re not. You’re far back, you have time to dodge incoming projectiles / Ground Fields.

Just stick with it, and you’ll be addicted. You’re just not playing right. It’l take time to adjust from standing there trying to not move while you cast and such.. Kiting or at least evasive playing is key.

You’re right. Lets just forget running CoF P1 3 times, and Cof P2 2 times, for between 6-10 rares (if you know what you’re doing), and at least 2g in completions alone. Not to mention all the drops you’ll get… which doesnt even take 2 hours.

And lets also forget about P3 Arah which can be done in 30mins if you’re very good, or under 1 1/2 if you’re at least not a first timer.

and of course.. hotw p1 and p2 are just out of the question….

But I do agree. For dungeons other than CoF the chests could be a bit… Juicier.
No one has half a brain enough to think P3 Arah or HotW is fast enough (not necessarily easy enough, but yes fast, to be lucrative)

Ooooh or they dont even have to drop weapons themselves, or maybe even possibly a piece of armor (gloves / helm) that are just skins. :o
And the gloves / helm (well some) could be generic :o

Organizing top post to be shorter, and prettier.

Plus. Being skins rather than actual items, would mean any level would be more willing to go there!

You know what your right.
I’ll vote for this anything to get more loot in the game other that generic crap we get.
The amount of loot in the game right now is sad so yeah I’m all for this.

I dont even care if the mob level is a set level, and is always on the map or not.
Or if the mobs loot is based on its level, rather than yours… As long as the skins are pretty, and is based on the Mob itself (name and look). I’m a happy camper.

-EDIT; actually I changed it. That was dumb of me to even suggest lol. The Mats/common drops will be based on your level, where the drop of Unique will be based on the map level)

What we have Now
Group Events; Big Champion Mob, Kite for a few minutes, get a green usually.
solo/Scale-able Events; Common Veteran Mob, Spank him for a minute, get a green usually.

What we could have In Addition
Solo/Scale-able Events; Unique Named Mob, of Difficulty between Champ and Vet, for a Hyrbid Battle experience! (More on drops later)
:o But that means Anet would have to draw another Face Picture Border! :o

Q:“Whats Different with this Unique Named Mob?”
A: The Functionality of it.

-Explanation; Like the Guild Bounty NPC’s, these Mobs will be roaming a map, on a seemingly random path.
-Respawn; They’d respawn on a random timer of anywhere between 10-45 minutes. (Combine it with the roaming, and that sounds fun! and unpredictable! The intension!)
-Drops; Crafting Materials for the most part, However at a low chance they’ll drop a Unique Item Skin (5% Chance on the high end).
-Skin Explanation; These Skins would be designed to fit the style of the mob. (more on this below). Would also probably be Account Bound (makes it more “Hey look what I achieved” rather than “Hey look what I bought!”)

Side note1; Drops will function like a chest! (As in no Magic Find, not give crappy loot all the time, sorry anet but they do!! <3)
Side note2; It would be very cool to also add in Unique Skins that are Gloves and Helmets like in GW1, where they could go on any armor type, whether it was a heavy/light/medium armor type.

Example Scenario
You deside to help out a new friend who just started playing GW2.
He’s a norn and you’re both in the Wayfarer Foothills.
You head south, because thats the content he’s most suited for is at.
In the distance you notice an oddly colored Minotaur. “Angry Angrus”
You, having played this game before understand what that could mean, and you warn your friend that is a Unique Mob!
Together you both charge and engage it in combat.
At this time the game realizes this, and takes note you’re in a level 5 zone. So the mob becomes level 5, and his Boss Skull Icon shines up on the Mini-Map for more nearby players to come quickly.
All in all, you and your friend end up defeating the minotaur with and with success your friend gets a rare unique skin drop!
He pings it in Map chat so everyone can see “Angrus Horn” A Dagger Skin! (account bound)
You on the other hand did not get it, however you got a really cool Obsidian Core, and a Potent Blood. (You’re level 80)
(The purpose of these Unique Items being Skins rather than gear themselves, is to still let characters of higher level enjoy lower level content)

Closing Statement
I know GW2 is a Casual Player’s Game.
I know GW2 is a “Everyone Help Everyone!” Game.
However I feel Vets and Champs do serve a good challenge for some decent/standard loot.
And I do feel that Dungeons are fun with teams, and all that is great content.
And I LOVE the fractals of the mists, mini dungeon series. (Awesome rewards!)
However I truly do feel this game does lack some more general PvE content that will provide chances at cool/good loot.

That’s be a great addition! Also it’s really useful if you’re trying to lead someone new to a zone to a specific waypoint(that is if you’re not able to team up at that moment)
I’ve also ran past friends so many times without even noticing them it’s shameful…

That is what it is all about!
Helping being noticed.

I’m just stating my personal opinion.. but If I noticed I had a friend or two on a map, I’d probably stay in that map longer, see what they’re doing, help people along the way, and I dont know.. I just feel something so little would help the game flourish, even if its just with the people you know.

-Dungeon (SC or Normal)
-Farming Farming Farming Farming!

Agree with you guardian=paragon, Monk were my favorite profession to play in a group without heroes. Currently warrior is the best healer but even that don’t heal enough to facetank a backstab theif. If you try you will die thats why most players just go full zerker because support is just not powerful enough.

Water Ele and Mesmer are the best healers..

this is a great idea, however the impact on the client would be somewhat large considering some guilds have hundreds of players, sometimes meaning hundreds of these little dots constantly being re-positioned on your map according to where they are on the server, and thats not to say there are many icons on the map that dont already do this, because there are, but in many cases, all of the guild mates would increase the amount of moving icons on the map by an astronomical number. for now, I dont know how it would affect my client, and until i get a futureproof rig in a year or so, i dont really wanna find out hahaha

I was thinking they’d only show up while you’re on that map, like the green dots of allies in Instances / WvWvW (Except wvwvw only shows when you’re really close to them)

As long as I can opt out of being seen on the map I am for it.

Privacy is something sorely lacking on the internet these days.

I’ll agree. Maybe by the Toggle On/Off option in F11 (Settings) there could be a check to say ’Be Seen On Map By Guild-Mates?"

Devils Advocate


Quaggan are more likely a water-based race. And even then, they’re sort of too simple.

The Kodan and the Tengu are the best bets.
Quaggan, and Hylek are close seconds.
Third rank would have to be Centaur and Krait.
Don’t even joke to me about Skritt please lol.

All in all, I’m happy with the few we’ve got. More makes new items (specially armor) take longer to get out due to the skinning for yet another race + Male / Female..

Id be happier with quest lines to help them out, as well as more playable professions any day.

However the mobility of them is an issue. Due to the 2minute cooldown unless traited.

I’d say even a 15second cooldown reduction would make them more viable, however i would like to see more like a 30second cooldown reduction.

That way you can be in a battle, move, replant.

Uhhm.. I’m not so sure why you felt like posting that picture would help anyone. XD
I cant read that.. I’d be amazed if the vast majority could either. (not trying to offend!)

I cant read that.. I’d be amazed if the vast majority could either. (not trying to offend!)But thanks for agreeing on some part that having alternative skill bars (just more options) would be great.

Okay… then… change your element while out of combat!

Thanks for trolling.

I edited the main post a little to reiterate somethings.

Again, you really just want to play an Elementalist but you want to play it as a Warrior.

You want to be able to change your playstyle mid-fight. That’s what changing an attunement does.

Maybe that’s not your cup of tea, maybe you don’t want to cast spells as much. Then there’s still another profession for you. It’s called an Engineer! Yayyyy~

No, you didn’t actually read what he said.

Thank you.

I’ll reiterate for you a bit clearer lol..

Your skill bar would NOT be switching during combat.
^That is not an elementalist.

Your skill bar would be swapped upon checking a different box in your Weapon Skills Menu in (H).

-forgot to mention.

The good about having different Styles of Skillbars, would be.. Say you’re running a team with 5 Elementalists, and you all want to play Dagger Dagger, but you just dont think it would work out..

With this idea, chances are, all 5 ele’s could be playing in different Styles. Some could be the generic style, however others could be in more projectile, or casting style, all with the nice fast-paced in your face, dagger style, that a lot of ele’s love.

If you want attunements, you could roll an elementalist.

I feel you completely ignored anything I said.

You wouldnt be swapping from ‘stance’ to ‘stance’ by any means.

let me throw out some suggestions…

Rangers could swap their bow stances to ‘Sniper’ for more long range, slower, and more powerful bow attacks. or even ‘Leeeerooyyy’ which would be a closer, faster, more hectic style.


Time to blow your mind. Even Elementalists can have ‘stances’
Now that i’ve thought about it. Maybe change my word of stance, to style.

I’ve only gotten an ele to about level 10 so I dont understand them too much, but I’d say even they would want to change their attunement bars.

One style could be more Projectile based, or ground target based, or Long Casting based.

+1 yes!!!
Lets think…

Generic/Free Slot 1
Misc Slot (maybe for dungeon armor, if your generic isnt used for both)
Magic Find Slot
WvW Slot

I’d be happy with a max of 5 slots, for eh… 800/10 = 80×2 = 160 gems each.

And with traits.. I would not mind even only having 3 different trait slots. I’d easily pay 250 for a new trait slot lol
(Damage, Defense, Balance, WvW)

I definitely goofed when I chose jormag to pick on. He was their best boss LOL.

But I agree.. I find all too often that ArenaNet makes bosses with Higher HP than Higher Challenge. I’m not sure what their goal is.

I’d rather have a battle make me sweat from so much focus and only last 40seconds, Rather than a grueling 5 minute skill 1 skill 2 spam fest.

Again; I dont think they meta events can move, and honestly if they just had more skills they wouldnt have to. (ie; slapping us with their claws and what not)


My opinion on Shadow Behemoth is this… He is in a starting zone.. I’m pretty sure he is suppose to be easy.. But I heard in map chat he was starting, and headed there when I was level 7. Needless to say even I did not die. I didnt even get event credit lol. But I didnt die!

He has floating claws, make us have to attack his face, with a chance he could bite nearby player and his claws could swipe far back players.
^Those 2 things would make the battle tons more exciting.
