Gold Sellers controlling Precursor market

Theres actually logic behind doing it that way. Say I have 10 precursors. I list 2 on the market( that I got for 80g). for 110g and 120g. You sell yours for 100g. I buy you out and relist it at 105g. When all 3 sell out, I still make a net profit. AND I get the added benefit of selling my items faster and also creating an artificial demand for what I am selling.

How is selling 105, 110, 120 precursors is faster than selling 100, 110, 120 precursors?
How it’s an artificial demand, when in both cases 3 precursors are being sold?

At least put some work in your conspiracy theories and made up stories, because they make no sense whatsoever.

Not a chance of anet doing anything about it. Item price rises means more taxes mean more money out of the game mean more gems brought for real cash.

Then why are they ignoring bots, which has driven T6 prices to their minimum?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aryanization

Aryanization is a term coined during Nazism referring to the forced expulsion of so-called “non-Aryans”, mainly Jews, from business life in Nazi Germany and the territories it controlled. It entailed the transfer of Jewish property into “Aryan” hands in order to “de-Jew the economy”.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dekulakization

Dekulakization was the Soviet campaign of political repressions, including arrests, deportations, and executions of millions of the better-off peasants and their families in 1929-1932. The richer peasants were labeled kulaks and considered class enemies.

Remove team-joining in tPvP

I think you mean “Remove team-joining in free tPvP”. Paid tPvP is for teams, obviously.

I fully agree, because every second fight in free tPvP is team against pugs and, obviously, pugs have no chance, even if they’re good.

As alternative, make pug tPvP mode.

Change female heavy Arah armor back to its beta model

physically unsuited to fight?? are you serious?

would you care to tell that to hundreds of thousands of military women around the globe?

the NERVE!

Who cares about your “military women”? We’re talking about medieval/steampunk fantasy, where heroes are expected to wear heavy metal armor (the one we discussing) and swing greatswords.
Just as reality, GW universe have gender distinction as well, where females tend to use bows, daggers and magic and males tend to use swords.
Most obvious examples are Destiny’s Edge (Zojja Elementalist, Rythlock Warrior, Logan Guardian, Eir Ranger, Caithe Thief), Human Seraph (female Seraph usually use bows), Charr forces, including Flame Legion, and even Norns. Sons of Svanir clearly state that females are too weak to have them in their ranks.

and again – the argument about sexism is valid here. women should not be objectified, not even in video games. putting male characters in full-body armor whilst leaving female counterparts shivering in the cold with all bits sticking out is so blatantly misogynistic it’s beyond words.

I never hear that guys are displeased with sexist approach to their gender, which is expected to fight and die and is always portrayed as bulk and manly in videogames.

Logan is a great example. He throws away his friends and his life to save a female. He lives to protect a female. Sexist? Sure. But no one is mad that Logan is fighting instead of baking cookies or nursing a child.

If you want to be a guy with breasts, why not simply start playing male character? A lot of guys are playing as females and they’re not insecure about it.

If the wearer holds completely still. Even the game’s physics acknowledge breast movement. With that amount of support, or lack thereof, there will be lots of edges and pointy bits digging into her flesh when she moves at a brisk walk. I don’t even want to think of what might happen during a dodge roll.

You’re grasping at straws. If you want realism, then Human female characters shouldn’t be allowed to wear heavy armor and fight in melee in the first place, since they’re physically unsuited. Or, maybe, Anet should cut our damage in half?

I’m bothered by the fact that there are pointy metal claws digging into a breast in a way that has to be painful. (It also defies physics, but it wouldn’t be the first armor in the game to do that.)

What? They hold breast, not dig into it.

I’m tired of pointing out that GW2 heavy armor is NOT realistic. You can’t swim or dodge or run in real heavy armor. Battle lingerie is far more realistic than your full metal set.

Oh really? History would like to disagree with you there Here’s the Wiki page as it’s easier to cite on here and i’m lazy:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auxiliaries_

‘In Roman service, both their cavalry and infantry had perfected a technique for swimming across rivers wearing full armour and weapons.4849

Under sub-heading ‘Revolt of the Batavi (69–70 AD)’

That was leather armor, as NateDog said.

Here’s another historical example, with real knights.

Musings of the Market - An analysis

Yes, the price of Charged Lodestones are greatly out of the ordinary when compared to other Lodestones. However is there really a problem here?

Yes this lodestone has a much higher demand than the supply. But is that really an issue? People looking for Charged Lodestone derived products can choose to go for that expensive resource, or they can change their goals and choose a substitute in products that use different, more affordable Lodestones.

This is clearly an issue. Players are being punished for a certain taste in skins. For choosing Exotic N over Exotic D or Legendary S instead of Legendary B.

Imagine if all Ascended rings would cost 10 tokens except for pov/crit/vit, which would cost 100 tokens. Would it be fair?

Now, such disparity already exists, since different mats, precursors, etc have different costs and some players will be forced to pay more money.
But situation with Charged Lodestones is extraordinary, their price goes that far, that some exotics already cost more than bloody Sunrise. I have a hard time to believe that this was intended.

But you’re right, Ranger have horrible AoE and therefore is bad for PvE.

Right, let’s spend all weapon slots and few utility skills to be almost as viable as button “2” on Warrior’s GS. Seriously.

The thing is that the kitten pet often just runs into like 6 people and dies instantly. Then i’am left with half of my normal damage and all these guys beating the s*** out of me if i don’t run away. And i have only one healing skill and crappy regeneration signet :P.

Pet swap, plus various evade skills on shortbow, plus that lighting jump utility. But you’re right, Ranger have horrible AoE and therefore is bad for PvE. Play Warrior.

Red post or it’s just you fallaciously calling on nonexistent authority.

What? What is “red post”? If you’re talking about dev posts on this forum, then you should probably note that forums were cleansed and closed before game has started.

This is supposed to be a game, a fantasy world. One would think ANet could work to mitigate the kind of social injustices (especially in this economy) that people log in to avoid.

So, you’re poor in reality and you demand from Anet to make Legendary easier to get, so you could feel better about yourself. Isn’t that a bit egoistical?

Precursors are inflating faster than I, as a normal person playing the game in the intended, paced manner, can gain cash.

People, who play the game in “paced manner” do not deserve Legendary. During development of the game Anet has clearly stated that Legendary is only for those, who want to grind heavily and dedicate a lot of time on getting this weapon.

Charged Lodestones is another issue, because it’s literally impossible to grind them and because they’re affecting those, who want to make non-Legendary weapon.

“It should be GW2, not TP2, time to un-suck quest gold and drop rates.”

Amen to that. A-net, we NEED better drop rates. Everyone is just sitting in Lion’s Arch playing the TP because it gives the best reward for the time put into it. As of now there is no incentive to leave. Please A-net, give us better loot and rewards. This game has so many areas to be played in and explored, and yet only one area is in use – The Black Lion Trading Company.

Glass cannon is the only viable role for a warrior. If you’re playing any other war, then you’re a burden.

As long as Anet doesn’t do anything about blatant market manipulation like this, it will happen more and more often that people do this and raise prices for everyone.

These traders (I suspect they also feed gold-selling sites) have alot of money, they can spend 1,000g if they make 200g out of it.

So far, Anet doesn’t stop this market manipulation, sometimes even denying that market manipulation exists. Maybe this is because Anet makes money from high prices too: insane high prices makes more people pay $$$ for gems (to turn into gold), which is Anet’s income.

Please, stop with these sensationalist conspiracy theories.

Bring back the healer role

in Suggestions

Posted by: Wanko.8103

Wanko.8103

yeah I definitely agree that they need to improve the support roles a bit, for example crit chance doesn’t affect heals in the slightest while in other games it does. Also things like the +healing on armor often doesn’t scale many of the abilities healers have.

The problem is, if they make crit chance work with heals, Bunker guardian will essentially become unstoppable in SPvP. I think it’s a cool idea, and that they could implement it, just not sure exactly how they would do so without breaking more things than they fix.

Uhm guardians/warriors near impossible to kill anyway? Well that just means they have some serious balancing to do is all, harming healers of every other class won’t fix the issues with this game.

It’s the same for dps. Two classes can 1 shot right now. Do you think that’s fair too? or do you think like I do that they should balance that as well by giving all of the other classes the ability to do preparatory abilities to one shot as well or remove those one shot abilities entirely.

Making the mechanics of the game function properly like crit chance, won’t break the game, leaving the things in this game that make it near impossible to play breaks the game.

Warrior is one of the two easiest classes to kill in sPvP.
