I would love to see the Molten Jetpack to have a Glider option.

Perhaps give it the same treatment the wings got on launch?

The Ogre Wars Meta event is glitched, and tends to bug out alot, this has been an ongoing issue for a long time.

I do have a suggestion, this event is very reliant on several events cooperating with it eachother, so maybe look at its flags and perhaps rework a system, or a fail safe timeout system, that recongnises the event being stuck, then times it out, reseting all it’s actors to a working point.

Breaking out of the map is basically finding holes which you can report and they can fix, it’s not rude, but constructive.

I could agree on having like a special event difficult even like maybe in style of the clocktower or a solo boss fight, where as when you beat the challange youd get the Portal, that would be an great idea.

Edit: Fighting the doppleganger (call back from gw1, and in style of the things we recently been getting).

That is true, Hired beta testers is the way to go, but public betas aint bad as well, and i do feel that the public test is more of a “Heres a sneak preview” kind of thing, i do encourage people to try and find this unexpected glitches so they can be done away with if they exist.

For you people that got into the beta, remember that there is more to it than just getting to play Revenant, Like try to break the game, go outside the norms, find the little bugs and issues, test if you can get to places, pay attention to things going on.

The more bugs Beta Testers find and report, the more of a bug free release of HoT we are getting.

That’s what i’m saying though, More chances, as in you chances increased. not the individual drop rate :/

Posted by: ZidZabre.7256

ZidZabre.7256

Let me re explain this.
Kill 0 Mobs = No chance.
Kill 1 Mob = 1 Chance.
Kill 500 mobs = 500 chances.

So yes, basic RNG applies. But the more you do, the more dices you roll, and the more you increase your chances.

And as for people getting bummed not getting a portal, yes not a fun thing, but they should know that there is a chance of not getting anything.

And as Argon pointed out, he got a good drop, and i’m pretty sure anyone farming for this has gotten enough Materials to be filling up bank tabs for awhile.

ZidZabre.7256

My point is, I’m not liking it because of the Portal i got, I’m liking it because i can take my chances affecting the RNG, EG: Do nothing = no chance, Do Something = A chance, Do something more = Even more chance.

Rather than waiting for a RNG system to pick for me.

Hello, I’d like to share my thoughts on the Beta Item thing.

Alright, the drop rate is RNG based.
And so is the User Pick system for previous beta.

So is this new system better?
I’d like to think so.

When first beta rolled out, i was pretty bummed i didn’t get picked, and this new system incresead my chances, However after almost a week of no drop my chances where looking grim.

Then it happened, from some random slained creature in Silverwastes i got the portal item.

My mind was blanked with blissful thoughts.

So was it worth it? Yes.
Since now you actually have a chance to affect your chances.
“I’d rather grind for an item, than take my chances getting picked.”

And it is all optional.

In the end of it, I liked this, and if they do this again, I will bring out my MF boosts and farm.

Looking forward to the beta.

Additional character slot?

Hello, a concern of mine is, are we getting extra character slots with the expansion or do we have to get them manually from gem store?

Reason i ask that, i cannot be the only one who has all character slots filled with 80s we don’t wanna delete, because we wanna play revenant.

And now, let's wait.

CDI- Guilds- Guild Halls

in CDI

Posted by: ZidZabre.7256

ZidZabre.7256

Yes, and so much yes.
We do want guild halls, a little place for us guildies to hang out.
No, we do not want to buy the guild hall trough merit badges(unless an additional system is added for smaller guilds)….

I think one of the more important things about a guild hall is the personalization, too make it feel like a home.

If possible, give guild leaders a tool to make their own guild maps, or use a pre made one.

So imagine this, you start with an empty space, you can place a few exisiting props, then if you and your guild mates invest in it, you can travel around the world, collect common and rare props, trophies and other goodies.

I think decorating our own guild halls would be awesome.

But either way Anet, i think the majority of the player base would accept a guild hall feature.

Also added:
My top 3 guild hall priorities.

1. Not having it Merit Badge oriented, as that system so far is difficult enough for small guilds.

2. All the services you would normally get elsewhere.

3. Free for all PvP arena for the guildies to mock about in.

When the combat mechanics, wvw matchups, story, and pretty much everything else in the game lets me down, there’s always going for a walk in an area i’ve spent hundreds of hours in and finding something new. These little details and the amount of unrewarded exploration there is to do keeps me from quitting this game.

Exactly, there is already so much to explore, and i’d love to see more of it.

New caves, hidden areas, old ruins, jumping puzzles etc. would always be welcomes. No reason some Asura can’t blow himself up and reveal a new once long thought hidden area.

For science!

I’d also like to see caves burying deeper into what is tyria underground.

I love this thread, like minded people here. I would like to see a underwater cave with the darkness effect like in the mine in Dry Top. A creepy dark area, maybe like Orr. Most people don’t seem to like underwater areas/combat sadly.

Doesn’t even have to involve combat, but yes, more dark places, i’ve only seen very few dark places, ontop of my head would be the dark area on obsidian sanctum, pirate jumping puzzle in LA and the mine in drytop, there may been more but i can’t recall at this time, but i’d love to see more of that, a dark deep underwater cave outide of orr, maybe leading to the “shards of orr” cave we explored once in gw1.

So i rather think i have been everywhere, besides just 100% map completion i have found hidden caves, treasures and places not even marked in achievments or map.

At this point all i want is more spelunking todo, deep caves, old ruins hidden away, not new zones but new things to explore in old zones, more jumping puzzles too.

I’ll keep roaming the lands, maybe there is more i missed, but it’d be nice for you Arena Net too add these little tidbits into your zones.

I hope i’m not the only one who wants this.

I NEED UNDERWATER C A V E S !
Especially in Orr!

No seriously stuff like that would encourage me even more to explore the underwater areas. I don’t even need to be rewarded for it with items, just a little piece of lore or whatever.

Oh i’d love more stuff like that too.
This game does “underwater” activities in a good way, and i’d love to see them explore that more.

Season 2 and Trahearne

Wouldn’t destinys edge be more eligible for taking credit over the PC?


Traeherne was not even present at the take down of Zhaitan, what he did though was cleanse the corruption of orr from its source, and as i understand that was his wyld hunt, something he was more or less born todo. While the PCs wyld hunt(if sylvari) was to take down zhaitan(also main mission for other PCs when they get to that point.).

I think most of the hate towards Traeherne is coming of the Kormir hate.

I for one would love to see him and the pact come back for the jungles, it would make alot of sense.

I have played trough the story, and i wanna let you know Arena Net that you have done a great job!

I can see that the previous LS has had it’kittens and misses but it was a great learning experience, and now i have hyped and awaited LS2 and i was not disappointed.

The cutscenes, the character conversations has been entertaining, Taimai made me and my buddy laugh our butts off.

The challanges provided, some of them being fury implenting difficult, but non the less fun todo.

I am now more than ever excited for the next piece to come out.

Keep up the good work.

They gem prices(for gold) change dependant on how many gems are in rotation and whatnot, so imagine thoasands of players adding aditional gems to the pool, it would throw it way out of balance.

ZidZabre.7256

I would love to see the additions of new weapons to the game, not additional bundle ones but the more traditional way.

The Whip. for: Warriors, Elementalists, Mesmers.
I think a good solid whip would do nicely in this game.

Katars/knuckle irons. for: Thiefs, Warriors, Engineers
Brings you alittle closer to the feel of close up combat.

Books. for: Necros, Mesmers and elementalists.
Just like the tomes a guardian has, but as a regular weapon instead.

Halberd. for: Rangers, Warriors.
A friend suggested this, or a two hand great axe.

Spear/trident(for land use) (any class that can use it already i guess)
Too make them more important and fun to use and have.

Scythes. For: For all prof? mostly necromancers.
Lets face it, Necromancers needs a scythe, and not a weapon skin, but a true scythe for slicing

also i do beilive rifles should be useable by rangers too, i’m not sure why not?

Just some ideas.

I may be but a few that does enjoy the whole personalstory, but it is not without its flaws, the final reward feels like i could have jsut got together from 30 mins of grinding random mobs, the cut scenes is dull and is meant for a bygone era of RPGs, i found it hard to get attached to characters on my first playtrough, but i don’t see them redoing it anytime soon.

But arenanet has learned, and improved, and this is what with get in the living story, more immersive cutscenes, loveable rewards, and characters i can attach myself too, alas not without its flaws, it is some major improvements in the right direction.

Well the concept of evil is mostly due to lack of understanding the otherside of things, i would love the option to explore the nightmare court as a sylvari, or join ranks in the inquest as an asura, perhaps stand by the flaming legion, or delve into the svanirs territory, or walk amongst, erm bandits, whitemantle or side with the separatist.

In some ways it just feels like they brainwash your character, “these are enemies, go slay.”.

Maybe that’s just me.

Perhaps garaunteed coins of defeating mobs? based on the difficulty of killing them of course, ranging from a few copper til atleast 10 silver for champs, and maybe 50silver to a gold per legendary boss, or increased drop rates for items. but i also like the add additional dailes for being in orr.

I’m in orr on daily basis, mostly gtting my orichalcum and ancientwood logs, and bunch of monster kills, but events in there doesn’t attract me anymore, and the temple events are mostly difficult todo without a assembled zerg,(dwayna and lyssa excempt from this rule).

Perhaps some added new events or actions, perhaps a new exploreable area to show the aftermath.

So sick of this.

“Oh humans come to tyria to invade/slaughter everything, they r badguys!!11!!”

I keep seeing this more and more…

This is not my meaning of my post, never said they where bad guys, or indicated it, im just indicating that they are lucky to have the land that they do have, and gets to keep it, as in the charr didn’t end up exterminating them as they are at their weakest right now.

another *what if* theory

in Lore

Posted by: ZidZabre.7256

ZidZabre.7256

Elder drgons, as we all know are giant creatures, and like a force of nature destroying, corrupting and consuming.

What if, the elder dragons are not friendly to eacother?
The fact they don’t move together to end all life on Tyria and reside in different locations.

They seem to be highly intelligent, and powerful. So surely they know wthat combining forces would full fill their goal, no?

So perhaps they are rivals, or even eneies with their own goals (roughly the same goal.), and so might end up fighting eachother over territory?

Maybe for now they have a common understanding on who owns what, but as far as i know, crystal desert may not contain the amount of creatures for Kralkatorrik too consume and/or corrupt, and might move north, beyond ascalon and traverse into Jormags territory, samee may go for Primordus, seeing as most races escaped the depths, and the dwwaves seemed to have lost their numbers, and it would force him to the surface to try occupying another dragons territory, what would happen then?

So perhaps we will one day witness two of these great elder dragons, duke it out in a battle big as an entire zone, if not two, and we rush in with the pact to deal a crushing blow on the victor seeing as him/her/it would surely be weakend by fighting another of its kin.

Id think it would be agreed upon the Major races to call it a National Heritage site or whatever, an agreement that no race can establish anything on the island, but maybe a few camps for historians and simillar people.

Humans shouldn’t attempt too reclaim it little less as they should reclaim ascalon. If nothing else, humans being not native too Tyria, is lucky they get to keep anything.

We will most likley see Tengus as the new playable race, due to fleshed out concepts and their status as a major race. I would like to see new proffesions, but balancing would be difficult, perhaps additional weapons with new skills attached to them, as for the Largos,, they are like the humans a non native race to Tyria, and at this point not as fleshed to be a playable race, and may not even have the numbers for it.

But as for Kodans, i think they could be a major possibility, after Tengus.

I’d love to be a parrot anyday though.

*what if* theory.

in Lore

Posted by: ZidZabre.7256

ZidZabre.7256

Enter, humans.

Not native to Tyria, and is arriving from another world, by the human “gods”.

So what really happened and why did the humans end up on tyria?

What if, the human gods, where engaged in a battle with eacother of epic proportions, and the human race on their world got caught in the cross-fire.
So after this supposed war the six remaining humans gods alive(implying there had to be an entire race of them.) took pity on humankind, as their world was layed to waste due to the war.

So they approched the surviving humans, guided them trough the mists into Tyria.

Or what if, the human gods where humans themself at one point, and their world was filled with magic, in fact so much that it got abused, and drove mankind into a civil war, which inturn destroyed their homeworld, and so some of these humans, created a way to absord the magic into their own being, and therefor ascended into "god"hood, and then took the remaining humans to Tyria, in search of a new home.

This would be lore pre dating, known human lore, and yes i know Grenth took Dhuums place, so Grenth would not be one of the original gods.

Thoughts anyone?
