correct me if i’m wrong but you are using the mac client… right?

Nope, on PC. Is mordrem only a problem to Mac users?

Tyloric.7520:

tbh I’m more interested in blue-man asura there.

Haha, no idea. He’s just oddly stuck there and I was taking a selfie with asura bro when I spotted the freaky dude off to the side.

Mordrem has been getting up to some dodgy kitten here.

They disappear while doing gestures and when dancing as well which is a little annoying. Haven’t had to unequip and re-equip thought. That sounds terrible.

At what point have you done a reward achievement and not received your reward CoverGirl?

Interested to hear if Chantry is what you were missing.

Fractals low level may possibly give whites, but I wouldn’t expect that of South Sun. How much loot did you receive and roughly what percentage of it was white/green/rare/etc?

Having said that, although a high level area, white’s can still drop. The debate over magic find’s effectiveness continues….

Bit if an awkward solution to a problem that could be easily fixed. The ability to preview it is already there, why it’s not applied to the hero screen as well is anyone’s guess as it is effectively a preview of sorts.

Adding a bit more info might help. Like what level was the zone you were in? Even with magic find it’s not going to give you exotics in a lvl 3 area for instance.

I fully support this idea. Too many times I’ve fallen into PuGs to be told that when you die you WP back. Nobody tried to res anybody. Nobody tries to discuss what tactics to use to defeat a particular boss, and yes, bosses do require tactics some of the time.

Dungeons, and in particular boss fights should be hard. It should mean something when you wipe and you should learn from it. First time I did TA with a group, man we went down on that spider boss a number of times. We stopped and discussed how to effectively beat it. That’s teamwork. That’s what dungeons should be about. Not just zerging everything.

What if there is someone who hasn’t done that dungeon before? I ask every PuG I’m in if everyone has done this dungeon before. If not I fill those people in on what to expect before we hit each boss. It’s not rocket science.

I am ashamed to say I have died, at lvl 38 nonetheless, from jumping down from the upper tier of Heolbrack to the lower tier. It’s not even that far a fall!

I have however jumped from higher places and survived just fine. I think the way fall damage is calculated is a bit skewed depending where you are in the world. I think it should definitely stay in place though, just with realistic calculations to damage right across the world.

Lol @ “Generally Ambivalent”. That should get some people moving if its publicly displayed.

Fenlock.1405:

… already, i feel like i will never run up the path from say Queensdale to Davinity Reach again, taking in the stunning view of DR’s gate … after a while, Teleporting from one point to the next will all start to feel very similar… I believe we simply won’t remember these things … running/riding through a zone helps to build a picture in our mind of the area, and the adventure we had exploring it.

I would rather teleports exist at the start and end of the zone, and maybe one in the middle for some of the bigger ones. Then we could ride mounts through the area, around the winding paths taking in the landscape the way Anet intended forever more. And we can all collect awesome mounts as we go.

You made an excellent point that I hadn’t considered but that by just reading what you wrote I realised I had already started to do. The excitement and awe of each area has now become a jumble of locations to get stuff done, or to get to where I need to be.

I am torn now between what would be worse, being on a mount rushing past encounters with other players or content I may not have if I had been at walking pace, or losing that sense of wonder and appreciation for just how amazing this world is that ArenaNet has created for us. Having said that it’s more obvious now that mount or not I am already “rushing past” content and other players by using the waypoints to get to where I need to go quickly.

Is it just me or is anyone else only seeing the +1 button in some/ not all threads. I don’t see any +1 button in this thread and was thinking it was only showing in those threads where the op has ticked the QA selector when creating the thread, but I may be wrong.

[edit] Right, scrap that. Now I just posted this reply, all of a sudden the +1 button has appeared in this thread =/

Our guild is doing our best to organise guild events on our website calendar, but we are all hoping this will be implemented in game at some point. Having to organise groups outside of the game is counter-intuitive.

I think the players most likely to participate in the world events are the players moving around and unlocking maps. Those players are generally working their way through unlocking the maps for the lower level areas before moving on to the higher level areas.

The players who aren’t as focused on map unlocking who get to higher levels are concentrating on dungeons more than anything. Once the players who are map unlocking and actively exploring are done with the lower areas they will move on to populate the higher level areas. It will just take time.

“filling character limit” +1

Max Lexandre.6279:

We don’t need mounts. We need cheaper waypoints for maps we already completed. :P

I initially missed having mounts when I wanted to get somewhere quickly, especially when I had already explored a map, and wished GW2 had this feature. Now I feel that having mounts would mean that many players would miss out on things like world events and alter the social nature of the game.

So many times I have been making my way from one place to the next to see another player in trouble and run over to help. Then started chatting and ended up exploring with them for a bit. This is one of the things I love about the game. If I was on a mount I would have passed so quickly I would have missed out on those opportunities.

I do agree however that the waypoint costs should be reduced for areas you have already explored. Or even making within map waypoints reduce to nothing.

It would be great to have a place to be able to display character stats and achievements.

I can understand the debate over the display of armour and agree that listing these items could cause segregation between hardcore and casual players. Being able to list our achievements completed, WvW + PvP stats, as well as general damage/health stats would be great to have.

An api to be able to draw these stats or even our character’s levels would be even more useful in the case of guild websites. Having to manually update each characters level is tedious and unnecessary.

I think a number of people would use it. I’m very community minded and would definitely take the time to vote on features that would help everyone to have a better experience.

I agree that a reward would definitely skew results. It would have to be something that people did out of their own desire to make this game better, both for themselves and their fellow players.

One thing I love about GW2 is that there is a sense of community and players wanting to work with other players, so this is something that could definitely work to ArenaNet’s advantage.

Also agree. Much needed feature. +1

I think this is a great idea and wish I could upvote this idea. Hopefully the devs will read this and consider it.
