Guild Wars 2

you don’t want but some ppl do…

That is the reason I started this topic, to see if there are people who make their end game goal to get a legendary item or mystic forge item for magic find. I’m stating this more for curiosity than to demand a change.

No matter what stats they put on it… it’s really not that big of a deal.

Agreed, however with the introduction of ascended gear and the prospects of the stat upgrades spreading to weapons has me concerned. I guess a more appropriate question would be “if new items are introduced with better stats, will all mystic forge weapons be upgraded as well, or just the legendaries?”

Don’t quite remember where I heard it from, but I read somewhere that if the ascended concept spreads to weapons, the stats on legendary weapons would be increased to match the new weapons.

Am I the only one who thinks it’s not cool to have magic find on a weapon that requires a heck of a lot of farming and playtime to get? I mean I’m all for getting items purely for aesthetics but when it costs more than 100g I don’t really want +3% MF on my weapon.

This is on the Infinite Light sword, not sure if it’s on anything else.

Phase 1 – I was excited to log in and see what was happening but I couldn’t see anything. My rig isn’t horrid, it’s pretty average so I could see characters load and animations but it just wasn’t worth playing due to the lag. I decided to hop into the dungeon instead and I loved it.

Phase 2 – I put off Phase 1 until I could do it later when there was less lag. The dungeon took up most of my time on the first day and I figured I could still complete the investigation on Saturday. The fact that I couldn’t pretty much put me off of the rest of the event.

Phase 3 – I figured the rewards would be good but not that good. The fact that it was a one time event that was not repeatable made it worse. A guarenteed exotic accessory, 20 slot bag and additional loot seemed a bit excessive for a one time 3 hour (so I’ve been told) event, not to mention the lucky people who recieved precursors.

As I understand, you have two teams that work on holiday events and content events. Do your teams communicate? Halloween ran so smoothly but this event paled in comparison. I loved Halloween but this event left me with a sour taste, not wanting to play Guild Wars anymore.

The thing that attracted me to Guild Wars was that I could play whenever I wanted. I had things to do outside of gaming, and the fact that I couldn’t log in at a specific time was disappointing. The time frame of the event was so short, I fealt I couldn’t really enjoy it. Releasing such a great dungeon at the start distracted me from the event.
