give an indicator for people who didn’t raid much.
and give a party an incentive in a form of an actual reward for letting a player with the indicator in.
then people are sure to bring one. the indicator would be account wide.
It would be removed as soon as someone get enough LI and people would have incentive to get that because then it would be easier for them to find a party.There is already something like this in the game, it’s called raid selling. And the extra “incentive” is the gold from the sale. It helps with “exploiting” the reward with secondary accounts since the gold is coming from those buying, and the sellers can’t get an extra reward by bringing a second account. There is also no confusion about LI, and no need for an indicator.
See how it works in actually helping people start raiding (spoiler: it doesn’t)
there is a diffrence from selling raids to players who will watch from the side and do nothing to requireing participation of all 10 players of the raid.
because he will play he will learn the mechanics better, instead of just getting the loot.
Stop pugging raids, look for a raiding guild/community. There are enough out there in EU and NA and you’ll at least find one that will recruit you instantly even as beginner.
i want to play this part of the game, i don’t want to make this game my life, and i did search for guilds, none of which accepted recuitment without Li
Astral outlined the problems well. In particular problem #2. It sounds like you think Astral was implying one player would afk on account 2, while playing with their main account. That is not the case, one player would actually raid on their alt account.
It is actually very easy to get an alt account raid ready. Lv 80 boost an engi, use a power engi (core spec), run cof a few times for zerker gear. Its not optimal by any means, but for a good group it won’t really be a problem either.
10 people in a static all do it together, means that for the price of 1 account, you get 10 weeks of bonus rewards in your full clears? That’s what? 5$ a week? Less if you get hot when its on sale.
In addition, you get an alt account out of the deal: daily log in rewards, daily fractals rewards, weekly raid rewards (save up 1000 magnetite, sell ghostly infusion, transfer gold to main account, repeat).
Ofc Anet might be fine with this, after all it leads to ppl buying accounts (which you can’t get with gems).
Well, that is not a problem, require everyone to not be afk to get the bonus reward. Also make the reward big enough to justify bringing another player but noy enough to justify account purchaae. One more thing should be noted that even if some people would use it to buy another accoun most people woouldnt be doing such a thing.
If it’s such a problem, why don’t those players form their own group? Clearly there must be a lot of them if it’s a problem.
Because effort and leadership skills aren’t core tenants of group content /s
It’s not about forming a group or leadership. Its about difficulty gap. I who never beaten a boss allready know how to do so on 3 of the bosses. I form a group and explain people what to do. and at first as a group we suck, takes time to get it. every try we get a bit better. The problem is, people get impatient. Most of the time when the boss gets to 20% and then we lose at least one person breaks and leaves. Since in raids everyone has their own parts u need to explain the new guy what to do and he needs to get better so it takes us backwards and then more and more people leave until even i get frustrated and leave. until the next time where i form a new group and the cycle begins anew.
1. Make the reward good enough.
2. Require the player to participate at killing the boss.
3+4. If pepole are required to kill the boss then people would know they kow what to do.
Well me and my friend conversed about how hard it is to get into the raids.
people have to prove to others just to get accepted.
what would be the solution?
give an indicator for people who didn’t raid much.

then people are sure to bring one. the indicator would be account wide.
It would be removed as soon as someone get enough LI and people would have incentive to get that because then it would be easier for them to find a party.
many of you here think that the problem is that raids are hard.
this is not the case, raids are not too hard anyway. the problem is that if u haven’t finished the raids allready u can’t get a group and get in unless u invest in a guild and meet up to their meetings ate tuesday at 22pm which is very uncomfortable.
i don’t want to make this game a paid job i just want to pass through the raid, have some fun do it once and never look back like every other game. yah this is an issue for new guys. i bet everyone remember the time they first tried to get into the raiding which was horrible.
In my last game something became very clear to me. cheating is amazingly easy in this game. my teammates, and the other teammates were both from the same guild. now probably they were not cheating, but if they wanted to cheat it wouldn’t have been to hard. players would join match decide who they want to win and the other players would just let them kill themselves or just press one not deploying any good skill.
This is a problem with a very easy to implement fix. the enemy team should have their names replaced with their profession. this would not only make it a lot harder to recognize if you are against someone you want to help or if you are not it would also make the game more interesting so we could choose targets based on the profession we are against.
Obviously some old masteries will be available at Path of Flames.
You can use gliders there, probably the core tyria would be of use as well. But my question is to what extent? Would there be ley line gliding? Speed mushrooms? Jumping instruments (similiar to lava jumps and jumping mushrooms)? Itzel poison?
I realy wonder which ones i should make effort to complete and which ones i should not.
I don’t think anyone who hate on the spec understand the Mesmer. Mesmer was never supposed to be a PvE class, ever since guild wars 1 got out Mesmer job was to kitten with the other teams mind. mirage seems to do it wonderfully. Mesmers are illusionist who use mind tricks. you want to play heavy damage dealers, go to elementalists. the whole phantasm and shatter mechanic were more feat to necro to say the least. I mean it’s legit minion bomber. but hey Mesmer in guild wars 2 was the Mesmer of guild wars 2 since the beginning so I get why some people would feel cheated. I really like this though.
Mesmer with trident are allready bards are the not?
Maybe next expansion they can get more music focused skills.
in HoT sylvari were the main race and they got a lot of extra attention while playing the expansion. are we going to see humans in the center now and I should switch to a human or can I stay sylvari and I won’t miss anything?
i must say that the current deal is better than before because now people who allready purchased HoT can buy it cheaper and don’t have to pay 50$
and i can buy both at 50$
this was the reason i didn’t buy HoT up to now.
when I press buy guild wars 2 button, it sends me to a blank page.
is it only me? or is it because they are updating the page?
I’ll be honest right here and now. I played since the beginning, heck I played since nightfall was out. I did played till the season 2 ended. and then I was considering on buying the expansion. but they released the game for free and the expansion cost 50$. so they chipped in the character slot. we all felt a slap to the face. and here I am back again. obviously I wouldn’t read the forum if I didn’t consider coming back. but 50$? and I’ll have to pay 16 more for the living story…. I would buy the game for 10$-20$. 30 if it included season 3 and a character slot. Now would be a good time for Anet to drop prices.
In guild wars 1 mesmer could yield shields y not in gw2?
There might not be an official support bu there is allready oculus rift for gw1 and gw2 out there its just show you the screen but when they add pov it would just be like u play
if by season 3 u mean the continuation of the current events then yes, they will occur in the expansion. if you mean the next batch of episodes we get as regular updates, who knows maybe and maybe not.
lets face it the dailies are suppose to give u goals.
not just reward u for doing something u otherwise would have done anyway.
while I don’t do the dailies in their current form. I think they are serving their purpose better now then they did before and when I run out of what to do I will definitely follow them.
I love the fact that different maps have different mechanics and different play style.
if I want chaotic battles I go to a place with chaotic battles. if I want challenge after challenge, I go to challenge after challenge. if I want something quiet when I can stroll around and water the flowers that’s what I do.
I must add to this.
the battles are in no way hard, but they are boring, tedious and take too much time.
the boss battle especially.
u should base those battles off of Zelda when u repeat the cycle 3 times and that what gives the satisfaction. 3 times is not too much and not too little.
the last battle in the living story took me an hour, after 4 times repeating the cycle I started watching tv, when he got to half health I went for a launch break.
seriously if it gets to the point when I do a battle only to finish it and do other stuff meanwhile it means the battle is bad designed.
this is not hard, this is not challenging, this is just tedious.
I never post on the forums but I couldn’t ignore this thread
I must say it.
The reason that the main focus on the plot goes to sylvari
is because they meant for the main story to be for sylvari.
that why trahearn is the main protagonist, that why scarlet was the evil bad person last time, and that why we are facing mordermorth and the pale tree in the center now (and acting as if she is your mother regardless of your race)
and that is because it is easier to focus on one race rather than many
I think i speak for many people when I say now is a good time for some server merge.
While some people might find themself in a high populated server many people persume the game is more or less dead and that is not because there aren’t many people playing this game simultanusly it’s because they are split between servers.
Even when it says highly populated it’s actualy empty even in WvWvW even in peak time hours. it got to a situation where the biggest zerg of my server in WvWvW consists of 8 people in some server and the server ain’t the lowest score.
and in most zones it’s just dead i just came across trenquatl today when there was no one to kill him with.
That is not a problem of my server cause this allready happend to me in another server and I hopped into this one and now it happens here as well.
