Guild Wars 2

I end up killing myself half the time due to downed penalty.. suddenly get downed.. and suddenly a ball of mist.. and all i can do is wait the 2 seconds to die

While a neat idea doing this for standard t6 mats might not be such a great idea, yes they can be kind of expensive but while one may be 30 silver each another can be 1 silver each just based on the number of level 80 creatures of a type that drops it… also keep in mind you dont have to buy t6 mats.. you can get t5 and use the forge to up them for a lot less money.. and just because it costs money doesnt mean you have to grind endlessly for rare drops or buy gems.. just running dungeons in general nets you around 70-100 silver just from raw coin not any loot.. while it doesnt seem like much it does add up.. lodestones on the other hand would be a reasonable thing to get for tokens but 15 each is kind of cheap thats 4 lodestones for one path and some dugeons only take 15 minutes to finish a path with a pug let alone a guild group

the thing to keep in mind overall though is they have said numerous times that getting a legendary is supposed to take time and effort not something you can just run out and get on a whim

It would be nice to have bank slots for your dungeon tokens that you can deposit into, preferably with a cap above 250 so you don’t have a ton of stacks piled up in your normal bank.. also maybe allow it to check your bank when you visit the merchants so you dont have to withdraw them like with how crafting checks the bank and collectibles tab now…

as a side note it would be nice if there was a new slot added for passion fruit

Ivor Elleshar.2567:

This still isn’t “fixed” yet? Just more duct tape, huh?

You’re giving duct tape a bad name

this isnt a latency issue.. you can run forward and try jumping a few times and the character will just keep running it wont actually jump

Any chance you could make it so people couldnt list or request account bound items on the trading post.. right now they just take up space, also some people are just being obnoxious and requesting them for large amounts of money just to boot other things off the front page

Im getting this too its very frustrating especially in fractals where you revert back half a level if you fall or get stuck in the solid ocean fractal

Was the reduction in health while using this intentional or a side effect of the patch? It seems really odd not to mention brutal.. doesn’t make much sense

How many patches do we have to go through before we get this? Or even acknowledgement of the issue?

Cannot salvage back items so any jewel or crest you put into them is gone for good unless you transmute to another back.. also with all the new back items dropping in fractals it would be nice to be able to do something with them besides vendoring

Well another reason for needing this to be added is the new buff given to scorpion tail/wire.. now that thieves can pull people off cliffs it is yet another instance of where every other class has suitable defense

Really would like to see some changes here.. the instant vapor form is really ridiculous.. Ive died so many times due to casting a spell and being hit at the same time only to suddenly be in vapor form and not being able to use it again later… not to mention the fact that it gives an extra downed penalty which can also end up killing you..

While it does not help keep this dungeon alive a possible solution for all of us that need the shards could be to implement a merchant that will trade dungeon tokens for fractal shards.. that way even if a dungeon is bugged or a person can never find a group for it they can still get tokens to purchase the dungeon sets

Also you cant say arah is no dying or dead in general because each server is different.. on Henge for instance.. the gate is open at most an hour a day and when it is open there is at most one group going and its always for story to finish the main quest line

Arah is definitely getting harder and harder to do.. I haven’t been able to get a whole group for a few weeks now.. generally we get 3 people then people give up waiting.. you’ll see one or two groups for story a day but absolutely none for explorable when really sucks considering I would like to get the full armor set

This doesnt only apply to CM.. on my server its very difficult to find groups for places like Arah in addition to others.. a group finder in game would be very helpful especially cross server, even a LFG global channel on each server would make a big difference.. being realistic whenever there is something new or a time limited event there is always going to be a large number of people doing those instead of other things but in general as the player base spreads out among areas like it has since the game has been out a bit now.. the harder it is to make a group to do things, and a large part of that is simply just not being able to look for a group beyond the people in the immediate area.. especially when you have a level 40 dungeon in a level 1-15 area

Happened to me 3 times.. most recently on the final boss of round 6 (round 3 of level 2) its really frustrating as said before.. not only does it screw the person who d’cd but it also screws the rest of the group because they are down a person unless they start the difficulty level over again..

Wouldnt mind a fall damage reduction trait in addition to bug fixes

This would be really useful.. sure you can live without it but it would make it a lot more convenient especially in situations like in WvW where in the time it takes you to open your inventory someone could come up and kill you or just put you in combat for that matter while you are trying to equip your other weapon.. this would especially be bad if you manage to get one weapon equipped but not the second

I do find the lack of true single target annoying but I think projectile speed would fix it on its own.. earth 1 would be fairly more useful.. not to mention it would greatly reduce the whole.. target moves 2 feet to the side and you miss just because it takes so long to get to them

Still waiting to hear an update about this.. it really is needed.. sure it’s not something you cant live without but it definitely saves time and frustration, not to mention it does make a huge difference in certain situations as mentioned before.. when one class can fall down and keep on running the elementalist will do a face plant and have to stand back up before continuing…

add Henge of Denravi to the list as well cant talk to mardine and the catapult keeps playing the launch sound but it doesnt actually do anything and cannot be interacted with

still no word on this? It is really needed, even for the clock tower.. other classes can fall and keep on running but a elementalist from the same height will fall and land on their face causing you to wait until they get back up before you can continue running.. this also plays a major part in WvW and quite a few jumping puzzles

What about all the people who dont have exotics yet or the extra coin to drop on the tp to buy the items the Mad King set is really nice for a new 80 or even an 80 thats been around for a bit that doesnt farm karma, just because they are useless to some people doesnt mean they are to everyone, the point is that all these people who were able to get in and farm the heck out of the chests just to sell it all are the same people that dont actually need the loot.. but they are the ones that prevent the people who do need it from having the chance to get it.

Ive finished it with an asura but I have also been ported back to the start without falling or running out of time… I was simply running then suddenly it put me back at spawn.. but as I said I did succeed eventually on my asura

Not saying this is what happened but elementalists do get a trait that increases movement speed by 5% every 10 seconds they are attuned to air up to 25% and it would be active even when at the tower since it isn’t a skill

Please make it solo!

I agree it needs to either be solo or have a reduced number of people per instance.. I can be to the first platform way ahead of the pack but cant see to jump to the next one due to having to wait for the next spot to spawn and thus getting stuck in the mob of people waiting.

Meh.. love getting punished because of a few people.. dont get why it wasnt patched to have diminishing returns rather than reducing drops for everyone even those who havent even gotten a chance to do it yet

I would buy the quaggan in a second!

Downed state is incredibly helpful for soloing in PvE.. it shouldnt be removed just because some people dont like how it works in PvP.. as far as being downed vs dead I dont really think that should be changed either right now it keeps it pretty balanced, in the OP’s example.. even if they could not res the elementalist there would still be 7 people there who could easily wait for the elementalist to run back.

If something /had/ to be changed I would say just make it so a person cannot be res’d from dead state while the person trying to do it is in combat, downed can be restored while fighting is going on but if someone is dead/finished off they have to either go to a wp or wait for combat to end before someone can get them up

Id really love to see some more slots added to the collectables tab.. town clothes for sure they take up a lot of space if you want to keep more than a single outfit so it would be nice to store them could even make a new tab and call it the wardrobe or something. The pvp slots would also be really nice so that everything sPvP related could be all kept in one place instead of having to grab stuff out of the normal back before going to the mists if you want to use it, like the pvp slavage kits and tourny tickets and finishers even. I can see why some materials dont have slots because if everything had a slot there wouldnt be much use for regular bank tabs other than for gear and misc items but currently there is just so much out there that you need to hold on to let alone things that you’d like to be able to keep that there just is not enough room for it all

I really agree they should be able to be “stacked” but thinking about the tools they arent actually stacks.. they are a single item with a number of uses hence why things like salvage kits cant be stacked.. it is a single kit with 15-25 uses so they would have to rework it a little to make it stackable but in the scheme of things yes it would be very nice to be able to put them all together so it doesnt take up a ton of slots

I’d really love to be able to zoom out more.. there are tons of instances where im basically running blind because i cant see where Im going with the camera restrictions.. I understand why it is limited in some areas like in WvW but for PvE areas is there really a reason to restrict it? this may be silly but even for something as simple as taking screenshots its incredibly difficult to get a decent angle or distance to take a picture.

First off.. gotta say this is a fantastic thread

An issue I’ve noticed primarily with chain lightning but with any staff auto attack, you can get continuous obstructed messages despite having a clear line of sight.. even being a few feet away from the target, level ground, and no enviromental objects between you its like the attack hits an invisable wall. Mostly happens when attacking moving targets but not always.

That would be perfect I mean it seems simple enough and basic enough that it ought to have been there to begin with I mean heck an existing trait could be edited to include it without breaking anything or making it too strong.. some of the ones ele’s get are kinda underwhelming

I’d really like to know why ele’s dont have a trait like this also, seems really odd and quite frustrating, yes you can work your way around not having it but all other classes have the option of using the trait or not where as elementalist aren’t given the choice, while elementalists may have advantages in some areas so to do all other classes have their’s so it’s not an issue of balance, especially when considering ele is the only class that does not have it.
