No, you have to gain a rank each time to get the message a new poll is up. No idea if you can just get there from the forums – never tried it.
I usually never get the daily for ranks as I’m still mainly roaming – so it takes me quite a while to get these messages.

not sure how you came to this conclusion but uncheck autoplay and you’ll see latest news on your login and be able to participate in the polls right away when they are live.

Precursors…. what are those? 4 years playing and never saw one appear on drop – only in mystic forge.

yep been here since day 1, and no precursor drop, spent a pretty decent chunk of mats and money in the forge, nothing…
whats the most common way to use the forge for a precursor? exotics, mixed, rares, same type ….I think last time i tried all same type of crafted rares.
would love to get a precursor so i can waste the rest of my days getting the rest for a legendary finally.

so I just tried to log-in and on the character screen i noticed my toon was turned around facing away from me, I then tried to spin him around and noticed the hair part was stuck and wouldn’t spin with the rest of the body

then I noticed the body armor was trying to render over and over and over and the hair was flickering….

i then tried to enter the game and loaded into LA for about 5 seconds then the game crashed.

just tried to log in again and the game crashed at the character screen. I’ve never had any issues ever so this is new to me….

anyone else have this?

[Suggestion] Siege Placement Cap

in WvW

Posted by: Zepher.7803

Zepher.7803

The only way to completely “solve” this is to limit siege to build sites, much like how cannons/mortars work. Like a keep has 3 positions for arrowcarts, 2 ram positions on the door and 3 surrounding sites where you can place 3 ranged siege on each. That way the hardcap for siege is actually all the siege you can build on a border. But that would probably get boring and predictable.

Oh gosh no, please!

I only two months ago discovered brand new siege placement spots to counter the abuse of the fov camera angles. This plan would have thwarted that creativity and effort to counter

An easy way could be to raise costs every time you solo build siege. Like, first ram you build cost 40 sups. If you dump all those 40 sups into it, the next ram cost 80 sups. If you dump all those 80 sups into it, the next ram cost 160 sups, etc and so on. But you would have to time limit it in order to make solo play viable (say 10 min cd), which only delay the troll. Or they bring groups to troll. Maybe thats good enough, I dont know.

This would only enable those trying to drain supply from a keep so that defenses are low. This actually would delight most siege trolls who’s sole purpose is to keep supply low so a tower or keep is easier to flip.

As you said, anything that can be abused by players will be.

how about just add the players name to the siege? just like the guild tag shows up on guild siege.

The more I hear about this the more I like it. However, I’d be concerned with map harassment of a player who say, only dropped a regular AC, or put a piece of siege in an odd spot because they were learning or they were experimenting with new placements. You know how people are — “we do it this way and this way ONLY!” -- and they freak over any changes. I’d hate to see this tool being used to harass someone.

I actually had someone on my NA account be snotty to me over me placing a treb in a newly found spot I’d discovered in EU. It’s really effective and works brilliantly versus the new fov angles. They stood there and criticized the new spot because it wasn’t the USUAL spot. It made me not log into my NA account for a month, lol. When I did, however, I found some people who weren’t closed minded and they were overjoyed with the new placements and what they could hit.

I laugh at people that don’t know my “leet” siege placement skills but the name tag thing would be for screen caps of obvious siege trolling, 100 rams/trebs etc. it’s more of a “oh kitten everyone will know I put this siege down” which might help.

Torch is still not well-designed

Posted by: Zepher.7803

Zepher.7803

The main thing I don’t understand or what bugs the hell out of me with the Torch is that it doesn’t burn anything #4 sets you on fire, and #5 only does damage not burning damage…makes no sense

Torch #4 burns nearby enemies when you activate it (1 stack for 3 seconds) and burns your target when you throw it (3 stacks for 3 seconds)

skill 5 should burn that whole magical flame thing needs to burn!

Reducing the glicko on T1 NA servers

in WvW

Posted by: Zepher.7803

Zepher.7803

the only way i see to get variety is to base the colors off of something else besides glicko, I still say the Orders should decide what color you are based off of storyline, then you can just pick whatever side you want to be on in the Mists, this is a dream still remember? don’t want to do storyline on any character at all? then you just get sent to a random side.

there’s variety, and choice….what else do you want.

Why wouldn't this idea work for WvW

in WvW

Posted by: Zepher.7803

Zepher.7803

some good points there, but based off of what I see in T1 large groups play different sides when the time is right or when they want to switch it up…there is no ‘spying’ per se because it doesn’t matter. why? because so many people across T1 have all been on the same server or have friends/enemies they love to fight, meaning spying is worthless when everyone knows everyone and the results are always the same, someone wins someone else comes is second, and someone comes in third…

when ya get the same matchup over and over and over…or the matchup is so flipping one-sided it sucks…why not meld everything together get back on track with what it’s all about, mashing keys in a certain order and killing other toons trying to do the same thing.

server loyalty is a myth, and it’s keeping this mode of game play at the same level it has been for 2 years…time to change.

can’t rewrite history to separate WvW from GW2 that ruins the integrity of the game.

when the 3rd BL map comes out (Rainforest anyone?) and they put all 3 into play same time then that might keep things fresh if the servers get a good rate of color change.

but again….it’s all about changing the fight to who you fight by changing servers…so back to the same problem; so how could the current server v server v server mentality keep WvW going?

anyways, I’ve been on 3 servers bottom mid and top, and the evolution seems to lean towards a fresh reason to fight, in the end it’s just pixels and data, so we move onto the next dataset with new pixels….same thing.

Sincerly, Me.

Why wouldn't this idea work for WvW

in WvW

Posted by: Zepher.7803

Zepher.7803

In Guild Wars 2 there are three orders. Each character will join one of these orders at the last chapter of their level 30 personal story. This choice is permanent and determines a significant portion of the higher level parts of the story. Each of the orders has their own philosophies about what tactics will ultimately defeat the dragons. While they are rivals at times, they recognize that protecting Tyria is the most important goal which they each share.

my idea connects this to WvW and each order has a color

Durmand Priory: Blue
Order of Whispers: Green
Vigil: Red

this ties WvW to your personal story directly and you can change what Orders you fight against just by changing to a toon that picked whatever Order in the storyline.

of course Anet would have to do the overflow thing, but being able to choose what order (or color) you fight for as a contest keeps the game a game and not all of this segregation that some people want to hold onto.

and remember WvW is in the Mists a “Proto-reality” if you will….not Reality as we know it

some other thoughts..
maybe transfer costs are tied to switching orders which doesn’t cost money but makes you have to start a new storyline
OR make it 100 gold to bribe the order you want to join to overlook the requirement set in the storylines.

anyways this ties WvW back to the game where it should be and not some separate game-mode, and hence brings back the FUN

so let’s brainstorm on why this wouldn’t work as per the subject.

OR if ANET could step in and just shoot the idea down right away so we don’t waste time on something that will never even come close to happening.
