Hello folks, I’ve gotten an itch to know what the world of GW2 is like after a year of hiatus.
Is it possible to revisit old content that I my have missed?
Could someone sum up important changes since the start of 2013?
Many thanks,
Still bugged ….
Build wars incoming. Allow weapon swaps only when all weapon skills are not under any cool-downs. No issues with amulet swapping.
I disapprove of this patch. Although I find the amount of weapon-swapping required totally absurd, they should at least allow weapon swaps if the abilities linked to the weapon are NOT ON COOLDOWN. Not downright ban weapon-swapping.
Happened to me in tourney. No idea what’s going on …
So fun camping, you should try it too.
GW2 unlike many other MMO-PVP games, has only up to 10 active skills to use from.
I bought the cheapest Razer mouse (only 3 buttons) and a decent mechanical keyboard with n-key rollover.
More difficult than clocktower please.
Nothing wrong with the rates … farm it up!
A cooldown reset command that works every 15 seconds maybe … something nice but not necessary.
/cdreset
Tourney or hotjoin, only run if you won’t get help and you are 99% sure you can make it out (which is often not the case). If you know help might be coming, just die on it. So, as a rule of thumb, just die on the point.
Basically, imagine you’re bunker-ing mid, and your teammates are having a hard time to win the fight at your natural point. All of a sudden, two guys pop out and give you a hard time at the middle point. If you die, the enemy will immediately reinforce the assault on your natural point which makes it even harder on your newbish teammates to secure the natural. If and only if you can run away successfully, it is a good idea to do so if you know no one is going to help you. What happens is that you can actually help your teammates at the natural point and win the fight and then following up with an assault to mid as a team of 4. But this won’t happen most often because you’ll be only under heavy pressure if 2 or 3 shows up, which means only one will stay behind to capture the node and the the rest hound you you death while you make your way to the natural.
So what usually happens is that if two enemy pops out of nowhere and give you a hard time at middle, your team should have no problems defending the natural with the number advantage/respawn. What you want to do here is to delay the enemy as long as possible for your teammates to come and save the day.
Anyways in hot joins I just roam around and kill things.

It has a lot of potential, but the bug fixes/balances are coming in slow. Spectator mode and matchmaking are a must. The player base are leaving in quick numbers though …
It partially works. Although all marks have greater area of effect with ‘Greater Marks’, only chillblains has the larger targeting circle.
Try it, cast your other marks on the floor, the aoe is much larger than the targeting circle.
A week already and still …
Thief was in base without broken doors.
Don’t think it’s that serious to warrant a ban, but just in case …
One month later, there’ll be single digits doing it.
I know that the devs probably know about this, but it seems to only happen on one side of the spawn. My team were the only one being affected by it during a paid tourney (Henge) on the Forest map. 4/5 of my team were affected by it.
I was also never affected by it during frees and hotjoins.
Hope this help.
Well, my current team is always one short and they don’t play in the morning … Where’s a good place to find a team?
Will there be free server transfer throughout the duration of the event, or at least an extra chance to change servers? My sibling joined the wrong realm while I was taking a nap so is there any chance we could play together?
And thus, for the third time I did not get the achievement nor the rewards.
Please fix. I’ve always wondered how the starry skies of Tyria looks like …
Not really excited. The ascended rarity should be either EXTREMELY hard to obtain or give a cosmetic buff.
+1. Please? I know there are 3 nodes and capturing them give points.
Main: Mesmer
Alt: Thief
With the correct builds ….
T1: Mesmer, Thief
T2: Guardian, Elementalist, Engineer
T3: Warrior, Necromancer(could be T2 due to meta), Ranger
Else …
T4: Necromancer, Ranger
Not surprisingly, the Tier charts on this thread are very similar. I don’t find rangers that weak though. Not very strong, but not hopeless.

Running on 2009 Bootcamp-ed iMac, 20-40fps. Playable.
As Knote says, I fully agree.
Signed – Mesmer/Thief player
I vote yes for self-terminate. Maybe even a new respawn system…
1 – Knock out
2 – Don’t kill them for 6 seconds
3 – Zerg him
Asuras should stay at home and be like good children.
Pew Pew Pew. I wholeheartedly agree.
Have humanoid form and breasts?
I’d say, replayable story is good enough for me. Make new characters if you want the experience the other storylines.
Thumbs up. My favourite.
My dreams are crushed; oh well, any other new race would be all right I guess.
New classes will happen. We all know they will. Besides, what we’ve currently got is pretty balanced as it is. Ever played in tournament PvP?
Guardian, Mesmer, Thief.
Warriors and rangers need more love.
I think more hats too. TF2 style.
Can we have an npc to trade Basic Trans stones to Fine!????????????

Buy keys. Although a MF recipe that upgrades 25 basic stones into 1-3 fines is cool.
A dragon in LA at comes every one or two months would be nice. No repair penalty for afkers though.
No to the scaling for night capping and bigger maps. Yes to more map variety, more objectives, and respawn rates. Revives system could do with some work, but I’m against removing it entirely.
Instead of just “yes/no” I’d love to see some reasoning behind it. They’ve stated that they “don’t want any players time to be worth more than any other” so they aren’t doing anything about night-capping as those players should be able to play just like any other right?
Problem is the players playing at off peak hours are worth MORE as they are able to take one unoccupied tower/keep after another and put major points on the board with far less effort than those that are playing prime-time. Scaling the points back would just make it so that everyone’s time is worth the “same” as far as effort -> point reward is concerned.
As for ressing, I know running back to the battle is a pain but I don’t see anyway around that. Leaving it in it’s current state means that smaller forces will never have any sizable impact upon larger ones.
I can’t think of anything about the res. Removing the downed/dead system entirely just for wvw makes little sense. An ideal solution is one that will benefit small skilled groups.
Personally, I find the maps big enough already. Having a bigger map will help with small groups in skirmishes and stuff. It might be cool though. What I’d prefer is a map pool with a rotation every few months to bring up new strategies for specific maps.
ANet designed wvw to be a 24h-nonstop-war. I like the idea. Also, not everyone lives in the United States or have a regular day job.
EDIT: From the above post, I think a timer to revive the dead players is an excellent idea. So they have a time limit to win the fight or continue fighting with less players.
I guess you can kill them in 3 seconds too.
I would agree with not having it part of the halloween achievements. But, please make more puzzles like this so I can become yet another sir-brag-a-ton.
On the other hand… if the tower wasn’t part of the achievements, less people will attempt the jump and that means less people will fall behind me to show off my awesome skills!
The best. I give two thumbs up.
I agree. Professions need more balancing. Don’t add one more.
Quaggan or skritt. Polar bears are ugly.
Should keep it as it is. So people actually buy keys.
I don’t know about this. It would be rather cool but it makes no sense in combat … A guardian wearing a singlet and some khaki shorts will not fare well in combat against the risen.
All quickness abilities, sigils, runes, and traits should only increase effective actions by 66% and not double it in exchange for an 30% increase in duration with a 15% reduction in cooldown.
The reason for this is because that it is very hard to react accordingly to someone finishing with quickness. The downed system was meant to prevent burst teams from wiping out the opposing teams due to the lack of a proper healer to catch the spike burst. But, with quickness, it is very hard to react accordingly and it is extremely difficult to revive downed allies unless you have 2-3 prepared to revive the player and standing right beside him. Quickness allows bursty teams to bring down one player and quickly finish off with a quickness+stability/stealth/invul stomp. On the other hand of course this means that teams need to run at least 2 utilities just to secure a guaranteed stomp, one for the quickness and another for the stability/whatever.

Why not? Time to spice things up!
