A female Norn was wearing Cultural Armor with a Thief hood from the personal story choice.
It was dyed green and was the perfect combination. A lot of people overdo their armor sets with too much magical clutter in their gear. Like the wings on the back.
With the universal wardrobe, and the highest tier gear being sharable among your account, it seems like it would just be easier to simply create a new character in the race you want. But that’s just me, I guess.
I just feel like i have too much time invested into my Charr Ranger. Of course I didnt realize how sloppy the sets were going to look on Charr until after i got him to 80.
If Anet wanted a Charr race they should have taken the time to make sure the armor sets were molded for them. Every other race is practically a human model resized so they didnt have to add extra details for it to look good.
Just seems like this type of feature would payoff big for them in the end, regardless of what kind of time would have to be put into it. They would make a killing on the gem store with this feature. Just look at World of Warcraft, there are people who have spent an easy $200 on race and faction changes.
I dont believe they have ever said " it will never happen ". Theres many ways around the personal story issue.
Just personal curiosity, mixed with the fact that i would love to no longer be a charr ( they look terrible in 90% of the amazing armor sets in this game ).
I know it wouldnt be easy given how each race is setup, but I would absolutely love to some day be a human and of course dont want to start a new character.
Supermonken do you have any anti-virus / firewalls that need to be turned off?
Yeah I feel your pain, ive been having connection issues with this game for the past 3 days ( since i started replaying it ). Never had them since headstart access.
“connections errors detected, retrying”…. theres nothing you can do Supermonken until one of the tech support guys feels like helping you.
Having this same issue. Doesnt seem worth sticking around with all these connections issues.
Any direct damage profession that has 2-3 people spamming might for you will do this damage as a zerker.
How many people would like to see the Gem Store filled with all the items that previous living stories had? ( The ones that will tie into the living-story arc event on the 20th, like Braham and such? )
1. Bank space is limited for the obvious reason that you want people to buy gems and pay for the extra space
Honestly, if ArenaNet were that focused on restricting inventory space to force people to upgarde, they wouldn’t have given us the Collections vault, or expanded it later to include everything it has today, or introduced the Wallet to free inventory space even more (just out of Badges of Honor, it has given me 10 slots). Not to mention that you can get 100 inventory spaces just with gold, without buying anything with Gems (by using 5 bags with 20 slots each).
Some people are never going to be happy with the inventory they are given. I remember reading someone claiming that the fact ArenaNet had introduced multiple armor sets in the game was PROOF that they expected each character to buy all available armor sets, and so he DEMANDED that ArenaNet would increase inventory space AT LEAST to accomodate as much (but he said it with more caps, more OMGs and more !!111!!!s, too).
And about the transmutation issue, wait 10 days. You’ll see.
IMO There were other motives for the wallet, and they were good ones. Having currency across all characters is something I enjoy personally. If they had never bothered with a Collections vault, crafting wouldn’t exist. People wouldn’t bother since you literally would have no space for the materials to craft.
I don’t know what happens in 10 days other than the birthday thing ( I think? ). If the present happens to be lots of stones, that doesn’t really fix the issue. They aren’t permanent.
There are some serious core issues that I thought would have been fixed a long time ago. I took a break from the game, not because I was bored or tired of these issues, but because I simply couldn’t find time to keep up in the game due to RL.
Here are a few core issues that I thought would have been fixed, they are fairly important and require Anet’s attention.
1. Bank space is limited for the obvious reason that you want people to buy gems and pay for the extra space, however one of the big selling points for this game is the fact that gear for the most part is cosmetic ( Horizontal progression ). This isn’t entirely true but for the most part it does hold serious weight in this game when compared to other games. The vertical progression is far and few between.
To the point ; People need space for all the sets of cosmetic gear that they plan on collecting in this game. As it currently stands, its hard to find space for 1 characters sets of gear let alone 2 characters. A simple solution would be implementing a system akin to the Structured PvP Locker. You simply implement one for PvE ( minus the part where the sets lose their runes / upgrade components ). This way vanity items can be kept in the bank and gear kept in the locker.
2. Transmutation stones are too hard to get when you again look at a strong selling point for this game ; Cosmetic Gear. Yet another obvious reason for this is the fact that you have them for sale on the gem store. I know you are pushing out a lot of content in a short period of time for this game, that content requires funding, however I think you could probably afford the loss of transmutation stone purchases based on the fact that there is literally new items in the gem store every 2 weeks, and they are quite enticing at times.
I obviously don’t know sales numbers, but the current system for transmutating your gear is just not effective IMO.
My mainhand weapon is significantly smaller when it is sheathed, rather than when it is unsheathed.
First it was the mainhand weapon bug that made the Charr hold their weapons improperly when unsheathed, now we have an entirely new bug for the mainhand!
Its no wonder this is the least played Race with this many technical issues.
I purchased Rox’s Quiver for PvP use on my Ranger and am wondering if it would be possible to purchase it again, this time for PvE?
It used to be in my recent purchases tab but i bought some keys and they pushed it off the chart, thanks!
Finding it impossible to find any success with this build. I feel like for whatever reason that I have 800 toughness when my character sheet clearly says 2300. Im getting bursted by people no problem.
I feel that when you purchase something off the gem store in the form of a cosmetic item located in the Style tab, that it should be reusable for any character of the appropriate armor type ( Light, Medium and Heavy ) or weapon type.
Some points to consider on the business side of things :
1. It entices more people to make these purchases since the style items will skyrocket in value due to the fact that this game promotes the creation of alternate characters
2. If the items are enabled as an unlimited resource ( such as the new Zenith achievement items ) it will eliminate any room for failure when it comes to accidental deletion of one of the items ( granting peace of mind ) or accidental transmutation ( ANet offers only 1 refund on anything related to these issues )
Listing any points for players themselves would be a waste of space, its obvious this is the better route for the customer which is irritating in the sense that ANet also knows this, yet doesn’t seem to actually care about the consumer when it comes to the gem store in particular.
Guild Wars was able to do just fine in terms of funds as far as I know with the above system ( content was still being produced in the final months leading up to Guild Wars 2 ).
This all came to me as I was trying to decide which character to purchase Brahams armor for. I have 2 heavy users, but I can guarantee that I will never purchase the armor for both of them, which means ( in my case at least, voice your opinion! ) that it would not actually affect the amount of funds you guys would have received from me.
This system would be a huge improvement and would entice more players to buy these items thus resulting in more money. Happy consumers, happy producers!
I really hope you guys look into this ANet.
I purchased the wrong item in the Gem Store and am curious if I would be able to get a refund through support?
I know theres a gem refund request option, but Im just curious if it would be a waste of my time to try and get the refund?
I purchased the Profane Armor instead of the Primeval Armor.
With the personal story tied to your race, I seriously doubt any such feature will be put in.
This. Either they’d have to completely reset your personal story, or you’d have a Charr running around who was best friends with Logan Thackeray and who had human parents.
So reset the story….lol. What a simple solution.
Ive seen Medium Armor on a Human, it looks perfectly fine.
I absolutely cannot stand my Charr Ranger. He is 80. I got to max level only to find out that the max armor currently available for medium armor looks horrible.
I have personally stopped playing until Charr armor is fitted properly. There is literally not a single set for my Ranger that I am motivated toward obtaining simply because the Charr looks horrible in all of them.
Shamefully playing WoW until small things are fixed, including the main hand weapon bug Charr currently have.
I believe the armor in the screenshot is a set named “Rugged Medium Armor”. I don’t know how you obtain it in PvE, however in SPvP it can be obtained through Free Tournament Tokens.
The gloves and shoulders of the set in the image are identical, the goggles the Charr engineer is wearing is more than likely the pair you pick at character creation, as is the backpack ( though different kits give a similar backpack ).
I have approx 4 fans so I dont think airflow is an issue, I routinely clean my computer’s dust out. I have a decent graphics card ; My settings are not on high they are simply on medium. I should be able to run this game on medium no problem, FPS is not an issue though.
Is anyone else experiencing this? If so could it be due to my GPU and is that my fault or possibly just a lack of optimization thus far? meaning it could be fixed in the future.
15 years ago? The game isn’t close to 15 years old.
Every hour or so my World changes to a random world, help please.
