A couple of things I would have liked to see in the TP interface update:
- A search filter for locked skins. This would help narrow the search for locked skins my account is missing. Maybe expand this to items that are uncollected collectibles too.
- An option to treat search times in an AND fashion rather than what seems to be an OR fashion. For example if I enter the search words “superior water” it seems like the search still lists all items with the word “superior” plus all items with the word “water”, I always wished that searching this way would drill down to “Superior Rune of Water” as the most likely match.
I’m still getting the hang of the new interface, but otherwise so far, so good. The better responsiveness is very nice, and the other new search filter options are useful.
To borrow from the Story vs Explorable mode of each dungeon. How about something similar for renown hearts. Once you complete a heart (or all hearts in a region), some or all of the hearts offer repeatable “part 2” content that follows up in some way to the original goal of that particular renown heart. I think there would some flexibility in how to apply this to provide variety across all of the regions in the game.
It seems once I “complete” a map region, the only reasons I return there are for dungeons, world/guild events, or specific resource gathering. Repeatable renown heart events that scale helpfully for a character’s level would be a perk. Maybe even a way to reward players with region specific materials that max level players are grinding for anyway, such as wool scraps or whatever.
Given that drop and salvage rates for Crystalline Dust seem low (to me) and yet more and more crafting requires more and more Crystalline Dust, especially when the Ascended crafting update goes live, will the drop rates for Crystalline Dust be adjusted to account for the additional need? As it is it seems like the lack/high price of Crystalline Dust will be a blocking factor.
There is of course the Mystic Forge recipe for creating more Crystalline Dust, but since that burns skill points and skill points are needed for the Ascended gear crafting, it would seem that would create a secondary blocking factor.
I’d love for someone from ANET to comment on this, or should I be prepared to pay 100g or more for 1 pile of Crystalline Dust in the BLT soon…
