Guild Wars 2

Bloodstone Fen is really neat but I feel like it’s a level straight out of the Devil may cry remake ???? Either way I like the way the game is going with this, the map is kitten.

Hey all, been playing this game off and on since day 1 and it just seems like none of my friends play anymore. Currently I have my necro at 150 AR and have done just about every fractal. Tired of doing dailies so I’m interested in a raid guild that needs a Necro or Mesmer (or guard if they even use them). I’m in the Alaska time zone (4 hours behind EST, 1 hour behind Pacific) and can play evenings. Currently on SBI server but I haven’t been interested in WvW since the release of HoT, though that could change with a good group. You can contact my ingame name Ultra Mega.

I honestly can’t stand to play this game now because of the new expansion and it’s grind based additions to the games with HoT. I’m too casual of a player to get a legendary but this new addition for a precursor are so much of a grind fest I might as well grind for gold and buy one off the market. The maps are ok, VB being the best, and TD being the absolute worst to play in. The mastery system is horrible because after completing the expansion with two characters and grinding towards map completions with multiple characters I’m nowhere near to maxing out my mastery for HoT alone (note I’m a casual player) and yet no longer have the interest in replaying these maps after doing it so many times. The core game is still more fun to play than HoT to me, I’ve still done fractals for a while but haven’t seen a single ascended drop besides rings, honestly ascended rates from all areas of the game should be a lot higher due to the costs of materials rising, the amount of gold you are likely using to help out your guild with, who unfortunately are dying due to realizing the new guild updates are killing small guilds altogether. This game has been nothing fun like and previous Guild Wars content I’m used to, I was with GW1 core game when Factions and Nightfall came out and it was always a fun new experience to play, yes it was a new game but the fun content was what mattered. I just am not liking this HoT content and I want to know who else agrees or disagrees.

I agree, my proof of heroics are just stacking up. I buy siege with them since my hero points are full, but if I run another character in WvW and use the badges/proof of heroics to buy hero points with, I never have enough badges for anything else no matter how much I grind, and when I grind the proof of heroics just stack up. Maybe if you can use proof of heroics for something that doesn’t require badges, or lower the badge count for purchases also it would make sense.
