Guild Wars 2

I think your missing out that gear isn’t that of an issue in this game, it’s all about the looks. Skipping some gear during leveling doesn’t make you less efficient at killing things as it does in other games. Consider crafting in this game as a second way to gather experience, i do have to agree though that crafting lvl 80 exotics isn’t as profitable as crafting is in other games. Nonetheless keep in mind that arenanet is a daughtercompany of NCsoft, there is always a little “grind” in the games they create. But if you create such a game as Guildwars 2 it is hard to stuff it up with enough content at release that prevents you from grinding to make money. The first guildwars was also a bit “grindable” because you needed lots of materials for the endgame stuf. The way people look at things is different for every person, it’s all a matter of what you want to do in this game. If the reason is that you play this game just to make money ingame, then this is not the game for you, unless you wanna spend hours grinding or buying cheap and selling for more on the BLTP. I am happy with the little money i make by doing dynamic events and WvW (meanwhile you kill things and harvest) so it makes “grinding” feel less of a “grind”. This said, don’t get your hopes up any soon that you will be making tons of cash out of crafting without doing any effort of going out in the world to gather materials… Bots are unfair and spoiled the game, yes, but even then there are people who actively grind because they find it fun. So if you think you would be making more money without bots, you probably would have about 20% more sale value (raw estimate). I could keep talking, but i think you get the picture.

Every item you get via PvP chests should have the option to place in the PvP Locker. They really need to make it so you can hold Glory boosts and Dyes in the locker.

I think that this is the better solution. Just make the crafted PvP armor stackable and make all PvP related items able to be placed in the locker. Then the need for a bank there is removed.

Agree.

Hey

This should fix the problem for the time being: keep your sound quality on “default”. Changing this option to high and highest quality can make the gamesound crash when an excessive amount of sounds is played, like for example during a large meta-event dragon fight. Playing the game on “default” soundquality ensures that only a maximum amount of gamesounds can be played at the same time, this prevents the gamesound from crashing during crowded moments. This is as far i can tell a software related problem from the game itself, which most likely shall be fixed in the near future.

I hope this is helpful for most of the people that are having this problem for the time being.

P.S: The extreme loud noises comming from pets should have been fixed with the latest patch. If thats not the case, asking the hunter kindly to switch out his pet should fix the problem.

I think your missing the point, trade post and armorers having nothing to do with PvP. I’m pointing out the items that can be used in PvP should be all accessible through either the PvP stash or they should give you the option to get into your bank account to retrieve your PvP salvage kits. Giving you the reason for visiting the capital cities for just around 5 items that are not retrieveable through your PvP stash isn’t a good reason.

Sounds like they need to fix the PvP locker then.

Spot on!

What’s next, a trade post? An armorer? We need some reason to visit the capital cities.

I agree, an internal cooldown on the respawn of the repairkit should be implemented. Otherwise the downtime of the trebuchet is only 20 to 40 seconds. an internal cooldown of 20 sec could help supporting the tactical aspect of defending or leaving the trebuchet.

Hello,

I would like to point out that there is no “standard bank” for depositing or withdrawing items in Heart of the Mists. Why is this anoying? If you deposit your PvP salvage kit and other PvP related items that are not depositable in your PvP stash, you need to go all way back to Lion’s Arch to get that what you need. This is especially anoying if you think on spending glory and try out recipes in the PvP mystic forge, also if you forget to bring along your Glory boosters. Please don’t post things like “keep it in your bag”, this is not the point. So said short: What is the reason for not having the standard bank implemented in the Heart of the Mists?
