Guild Wars 2

Status of expansion/actual content updates instead of these flimsy ls episodes and dev feedback kind of feels like this

The layout wouldn’t be a a problem – the weapon gift could be a component of the core .
And cores would require a large time/money investment and would be trade-able like the legendaries themselves . This was just my take on how to remove the mystic forge gambling from legendary crafting.
Also , yes 12 per legendary seems like a lot of work , but the most of the textures and models are already there . A designer could make a twilight axe just by cutting out an axe shape out of Twilight and sticking it on a pretty handle.
But this is just pure speculation and day-dreaming . It’s not like that filthy precursor rng will ever dissapear.

Ok so we all know just how irritating obtaining a precursor can be and how everyone keeps asking for new legendaries . My suggestion is Legendary Cores !!!! < trumpets> .
Instead of a precursors you craft a core , maybe using some of that godkitten space-wasting bloodstone dust or something , that is used in the legendary recipies .
Now comes the really “gud” part – according to what weapon components you throw in you get a weapon from an already existing legendary weapon theme i.e. : axe blade + small hilt + gift of sunrise + t6 mat gifts + sunrise core ( suck it zommoros! ) = sunrise axe .
That’s just one example . I personally would really would like to see a Dreamer Hammer or Predator Sword.

Any thoughts?

Ascended gear is only required for high-level fractals , and the " they make all the difference in the world." part , I’m sorry but I’m going to have to call you out on your bullkitten.

Boon duration and healing power on berserker gear? In that case I suggest they change the name from berserker gear to “erectile dysfunction”gear.

Destroying berserker gear is a moronic solution to alter the meta.Instead of making condition dmg and healing power useful somehow , like making condi/healing users boost the group dmg , we’ll just punish the players who don’t spend 30 minutes on a boss.
ALL of human kind uses the zerker meta.Just look at modern militaries : extreme dmg with only some camo uniform as protection

The dredge commissariat has dispatched agents to interrogate it’s citizens about the recent information leak.Apparently they have a mole in their midst.

A sylvari on his way to Rata Sum reaches a gate checkpoint where all visitors require paperwork to be accounted for , upon entering the city.
An elderly asura walks up to the him and starts taking some notes .Then with a dull tone asks him :
-Name?
-Farwin Leafmesh , the sylvari answers.
-Age?
-21

I was reminiscing about that whole fire t3 re-skin fiasco from a while back and thought ,what if , we could re-skin or add effects to our weapons and armor ourselves using lodestones.
For example , you craft a sword using the ori sword , hilt , blade , inscription and a glacial lodestone and BAM – frosty pearl sword -either an icy reskin or just some icy particle effects.
The same process could be used when crafting armor.Just imagine your favorite set but with the elemental effects of your choice.
Already got gear ? No problem ! just toss’em in the mystic forge along with the appropriate lodestone for the desired effect.

Below I have attached an incredibly kittenty drawing to exemplify my idea

Well so far people hate my idea.That just makes it so much more tempting for anet to actually implement.Kek

I like how every race has access to every class in the game even though we all frown when we see an asuran warrior or norn mesmers (really? it’s like the hulk narrating the inception movie) but my idea is that after reaching a certain lvl with a race you unlock it’s exclusive profession. Here are some of my suggestions :

Human-Inquisitor
Fanatics who believe that by purging the unworthy , the gods may return to humanity.
This would be a frontline caster class that uses light armor , maces, foci and staves.
It’s resource would be FERVOR much like the warrior’s adrenaline .The more the inquisitor attacks the more fervor he gains. F1 F2 and F3 are eddicts wich upon activating give boosts to the group ,heal or inflict conditions on the enemy .The effects scale with the ammount of fervor the inquisitor has at the moment.

Charr- Bombard
On the gw2 wiki if you read the article on the engie you’ll see some pics of some kitten charrs in heavy armor and sweet shoulder mounted cannons.What do those guys have to do with the engie class ? no ideea , but the pics would fit perfectly with the bombard .
A heavy armor class ,wich’s resource is AMMO much like the thieves initiative but when it’s full – F1- the bombard pops out that lovely cannon and start blasting away at the fools unlucky enough to be caught in it’s path.In this state he has chilled-like movement speed but has 1500 range and gains cannon specific attacks.
Oh and when not using the cannon it can wield rifles, hammers….dunno, who cares, Shoulder Cannons!!!!

Sylvary-Dreamwalker

Another heavy class .It’s mechanic is ….wait for it….Sleep Walking! With F1 and F2 it can shift between awoken and dreaming state.It uses swords mainly and daggers/shields offhand.In the Awoken state it relies on blocks and speedy movement to get in and bring the pain but in Sleep mode the dreamwalker skims the surface of the nightmare and gets a bit edgy .It’s attacks become mid-ranged and condition heavy with the ability to consume the conditions on the target for burst dmg.To enter either state the dreamwalker must first deal enough dmg depending on witch state it currently is using.Why heavy armor you may ask ? Well , because when sleepwalking you tend to bump into things: furniture , ogres, zergs etc. The extra padding helps.

Asura-The Laureate

This would be a medium armor “pet” class . Bearbow rangers rejoice! just kidding-srlsy dont camp at 1500 in dungeons . Anyway , the class’s “pet” is actually 3 pets .Floating around the laureate are three icosecha, icho……..d20 dice.The dice attack whatever the master is attacking either in melee or in range situations using scept/pistol combinations or staves with strong cc skills. With F1 F2 and F3 they are consumed by either detonating for massive dmg , latching onto the target inflicting conditions or reflecting the next attack.After they are destroyed they regenerate one at a time. Maximum dmg is achieved when all 3 dices are out.

Norn-The Penitent

This is inspired from the npc Rojan the penitent. A norn who has abandoned the wild spirits , blinded by his lust for power , to worship dragon.Luckily he saw the true face of his idol and backed out just in time to save his humani….nornity.Severed from bear ,owl ,moose and whatever else the norns worship he now seeks to regain their favor by punishing himself for his misdeeds.
A medium armored shield wielding class that has a pain bar similar to the necromancer’s death shroud as it’s mechanic. It fills up whenever the penitent takes damage and when activated all the damage he absorbed is then used to either increase his defense or to support the party .The penitent can even take damage for other players , kind of like a two legged aegis with a death wish.

Anyway these are my ideas .I know they may sounds stupid but in my defense I was really bored when I wrote this.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

Branded weapons and armor sounds awesome but if it ever comes to that it will be done kittenly via the gem shop.God forbid we get new skins that don’t involve asinine rng or cheap cash-grabs.
But still purple crystal gear would look nice.

Shifting through portrets is all fine and dandy but personally I think the character selection screen would look so much more awesome if it would show all of your alts side by side like the pic with destiny’s edge members.

On the way to the beacon torch poi in malchor’s leap there is a veteran risen subjugator that is bugged. He spams an infinite-duration life leech . Interrupting him had no effect because as soon as the little bugger got back on his feet he resumed his vigorous sucking that would last indefinetely.

My client crashed after i tried to switch characters after i noticed my sell button on the trading post was greyed out saying that i must upgrade my game to the full verison if i want this feature -wtf-

If we ever get a cannon I feel that the attack sound would be of critical importance .
Hell , half of the reason of using a cannon is to hear the boom . Sadly most weapons in this game have lackluster sound effects . The rifle sound like a bike tire blowing out , the pistol sounds like a stapler doing the cha-cha and the flamethrower…well let’s just say it’s the closest you’ll ever come to hearing a wet towel dispenser dry-humping a piece of meat.

Sadly a revamp of this scale at this point wouldn’t possible . But that doesn’t mean they can’t still save the day and make the cannoneer a new class . That way there would be 3 heavy classes just like the medium and light .

I was browsing the gw2 wiki and saw this artwork . Then it hit me . Why can’t engineers use cannons ? And don’t even mention that atrocious and deformed rifle skin called a charrzooka -that thing is a joke . I’m talking about shoulder mounted engines of destruction : mortars, chain guns , rocket pods etc . That would certainly give the class the “oomph” it needs after the continuous barrage of nerfs it has endured .
Hell , I’m not even going to ask why engineers don’t wear heavy armor like the charr in the pick .

tldr : enginners should use shoulder cannons and heavy armor

I think to satisfy everyone’s hunger for new classes the gw 1 primary/secondary proffesion mechanic should be ressurected .That way there would be sooooo many new class combos , each with its own name . Like a warrior with a thief secondary -it could be called a shadow enforcer….or roflstompmancer

I would love to see some sort of wrestler/luchadore themed class that uses armored fists and grappling moves . Like literally grappling everything – bears, minotaurs , destroyers etc. A class that can run around screaming about the honor of the mask while dropkicking branded and suplexing jotuns.

Or like sythus said a dark and ominous plate class – maybe a reformed risen or something.

I still find it strange to be working with the charr considering that in GW 1 I was actively hunting down and killing a medium-sized nation’s population worth of the furry kittens.
But soon enough everyone will hate the charr again . When the dragons are killed the charr will inevitably turn on the rest of the world and put it to the flame . It’s all they know , conquest is all they care about , victory by any means necessary .It’s only a matter of time before these bloodthirsty honorless currs erect new flaming cauldrons and march outwards to stomp out any non-charr.

I wish you would receive the dungeon token reward at the end by mail in case you got disconnected .This has happened to be on several occasions and the problem was from the game-client not the ISP.

p.s. give those kitten tokens a bank material tab of 500 or more

If a dmg recount is introduced then boss fights will inevitably turn into nothing more than a dick-measuring contest and a flood of “lfg at least xxxx dps no noobs” on the map chat

The only thing that is skipped is a waste of time seeing how those mobs offer no reward other than vendor quick sell trash. The faster you can finish a dungeon the better , not vice versa . If you love slicing and dicing a worthless mass of hp so much then just park your character on a training dummy with auto attack turned on and let the dungeon runners be efficient

The blueprints are soulbound , you can’t give them away

Catisa.6507:

you could nerf all characters 50% and still face roll through PvE. Not a single thing I can’t do in PvE with any clas with blue gear let alone fully geared exotics. Surely this must be a troll post from the OP?

I dont mean to be rude but either you are talking about a different game or you’ve been sniffing too much glue . Op is right , here pve always gets the short end of the stick

I dont do wvw because pvp-wise I have the battle prowess of roadkill . But I want to get that bloody gift of battle so I do the jumping puzzle (trying to get 500 badges from kills is like trying to move a sand pile with a tweezer) and as everyone knows you get blueprints , that will never be used in my case.
My suggestion is to make those blueprints refundable in exchange for badges .
That way the greatest obstacle in the great gift gathering will be the flawed rng clovers , mountain of gold necessary and the precrsor that has a chance of dropping as high as the odds of me shoving both my legs up my kitten

tldr – make siege blueprints refundable for badges of honor

From what I’ve seen , mf increases the chance of porous bones.Stacks and stacks of porous bones. Anet if you’re keeping the kittenty and broken loot system at least let me build a castle or something out of those bones

More rewarding ? If from lvl 80 maps and dungeons uou only get crap and maybe a green or two what the hell are you going to get from said low lvl areas ? I’ll tell you what…..instead of the usual kitten loot you get the new scaled kitten loot . This is like giving someone for his birthayd a lovely box with all sorts of colors and ribbons and when you open it you realize it’s a box of kittening nothing

So we’ve all heard about stealth patches , broken dr and rng , and yada yada yada things anet quickly dismissed , but playing the game says othwerwise.
But I was chatting with a buddy and he said something interesting. Maybe those that are blessed by the rng , that 1% of players, are not random. Is it possible to gain positive rng because you , let’s say , payed extra ? Deluxe edition , heavy gem shopper etc etc? This is a a quite frightening thought but more so because of it is actually possible .
Any thoughts ?
I whole-heartedly hope I’m wrong

This only convinces me further that the rumours of inherently bad/good RNG ,for toons or accounts , are true

George Steel.1804:

So from us true dungeon fans: Thanks!

What a load of bullkitten. Your bloated ego keeps you from realising that this new wp denial is but another hindrance in a long list of dugeon inconsistencies. The dungeons were always unpleasant( artificial difficulty , cheap mechanics and abysmal loot) worst of all they are as much fun as pulling teeth . They were just a means to and end. The only reason people even bothered with them is because of those bloody tokens.
But now even more stick and even less carrot.
If you and the other die-hards out there want a challenge then run the dungeons geared in blues and THEN pound your chest while filling the forums with such laughable input.

I fail to see how adding more and more penalties when attempting to get the already laughable “rewards” for ones time and effort – couple that with the fact that some accounts/toons have inherently bad RNG and you get players sick and tired of beeing cheated out of the time invested in the game

This has happened to me 2 times already . Did the whole event from start to finish , got the gold medal completion thingy and then surprise , surprise ! No chest…..oh well just 5 blues lost but god kitten is it irritating.
Anyone else having this problem ?

Jehuty.7426:

For that you need to learn how to dodge or change your spec.. We have finished all 4 paths Arah and COE without any problem… So it’s same thing

Oh yea sure and you did it without any armor or weapons equipped and the monitor turned off too I bet . I agree with op , this new patch kind of sucks kitten . Instead of fixing existing issues like broken mechanics and cheap mob stats ( wailling one the same mob for 10 mins is hurr durrr challenging )they invent “problems” and "fix"them like “re-rushing” . Re-rushing ? Are these guys serious? Boy I bet the guy who thought of that one felt so kitten proud . Do the devs actually play this game? I think not

Night time seems too bright honestly . Now I’m not saying I don’t like it but a pitch black night time would bee much more fun in my opinion. It would make exploring a bit more interesting.
