Now we get a stupid staff(Congrats to all happy people by the way). Unless they return ricochet and fix dual pistols for me this will be the last patch. Have over 1500 hours on thief. Will not be playing another class.

Once again – congrats to everyone happy about the staff.

See @Forz? This is completely understandable. They took his Ricochet & P/P build away, he also put in a lot of work into a thief. That’s an argument.

Not some stupid “Thank Anet, definitely quitting now. PU mesmer all the way.”

@Beastathead, I am sorry mate, and i also truly hope they fix ricochet. Diveristy is killed here in this profession. Somebody even mentioned putting the Ricochet trait into Unload? what do you think about that? Sure it’s not what it used to be, but still…

Anything that makes my P/P work normally in AoE PvE situations(of course with some sacrifices in the trait line), works for me as well.

Anything that makes my P/P work normally in sPvP(not even tPvP) situations, works for me as well.

I don’t know guys. When I got the this freaking game I wanted to be a god kitten thief with god kitten dual pistols pew-pewing people around with Ricochet. This is the only reason I got this game… the freaking dual pistol pew pew video sold me the game. Now we get a stupid staff(Congrats to all happy people by the way). Unless they return ricochet and fix dual pistols for me this will be the last patch. Have over 1500 hours on thief. Will not be playing another class.

Once again – congrats to everyone happy about the staff.

It has bounce effect, not ricochet. It is a dagger skill, it costs initiative, it gives a little amount of Cripple. The condition damage builds might feel strong for now, but that’s until they decide to tone down the Condition burst.

Basically Elementalists, Necromancers, Rangers, Thiefs and Warriors dont freaking exist for them.

So to all the protectors of Anet – why is it that when you get a free copy of the game – I wont get a free CD-Key for a second account?

Simple Example from World of Tanks – I have a tank, but they offer an awesome package, which contains gold + premium for 1 month + a premium tank(which is for free for that package) I already own. Instead of not giving me anything for that tank, which I own, they just give me the same amount of gold that Tank COSTS – OMG

WSG Delen.9203:

even just 400 Gems (or 50 Gold) to existing account holders might help to sooth the tempers of those that feel the state of play is unfair.

And WRT sales figures, a good will gesture that has only a notionally infinitely renewable non-capital cost impact now (e.g. GEMs) should not detrimentally effect the annual/quarterly sales figures (in fact it would probably do the opposite) but the absence of it will almost certainly have long term repercussions to profits received on such items in the future based on what I have been reading in this thread.

Actually adding 400 gems to all accounts who already have Core Game, will just increase the profits(from my point of view), because most people will want the additional character slot. The groups will be divided in 2:
- People who pay with gold, which will cause a large price per gem, which is a bonus for Anet, since more people will feel better at spending 5-10$ for the additional 400gems
- People who will just buy the gems.

So guys – THIS IS HOW ITS DONE: http://www.unlimitedgamestore.com/world-of-warcraft-battlechest-3-0-battle-net-key.html bundled with http://www.unlimitedgamestore.com/world-of-warcraft-warlords-of-draenor-battle-net-cdkey-eu-pc-mac.html?search=Warlord

Costs us cheaper than the whole Guild Wars 2 HOT bundle…….

Also. There is a website which offers HoT ONLY preorder for 35Euro: http://www.gamecard.mobi/guild-wars-2-heart-of-thorns-addon-pc.html?___store=default&a_aid=ckw

and for kitten

http://www.gamesdeal.com/guild-wars-2-heart-of-thorns-addon-pc.html?___store=english&a_aid=ckw

I mean…. what the kittening hell?

EDIT: Both sites say that they will send the CD-Keys on release date(according to them 31.12 or 29.12) Either they are full of bullkitten or they have an insider info about the real price of the darn kittened expansion.

Perplexity….perplexity everywhere

You are forgetting one major thing.

Did you guys know that pretty much 60% of all the money made by Anet are going for NCsoft? – there was an article about it, cant find it now.

Did you know what for the other 40% are going? – probably servers and pay checks(which are kittened by the way).

Did you know what the 60% are going for right now? – The new mega-awesome MMO full of “innovations” and stuff(hint: The name starts with Wild, and ends with Star).

Why would Anet congratulate a rival MMO for its arrival? – Orders from the publisher, NCsoft.

I dont blame Anet for this. I blame NCsoft for ruining Anet`s rating as the awesome company it is. I blame NCsoft for the lack of interest in its own published products. I blame NCsoft for probably getting the good programmers and putting them in their new “innovative” MMO and leaving Anet with interns.

That is what I think of this issue and probably of all the issues with this game.

Peace.

Yes, very cool. Now lets hope that vendor stays here for more than a month, since today was the last day I could play before my finals. If not I say because of me: “Delay the vendor for 1-2 months, so my finals finish, then we all can get the rewards”.

Another problem here is Anet is dividing the community. I think the people who got their tickets felt at least a bit sympathetic to the ones who did not, and also commented about it here. Now both sides will just headbash into each other. That is what Anet wants: Not united community, but easier to maintain sides.

Funny part is non of my guild mates had any problems with getting that chest, nor I or anyone in my friends list… Also, what do some people mean by “dem nasty pvers no deserve le chestis anywayz”. The same way you did your meta, they did theirs. By saying that they dont deserve it, you are actually saying nobody deserves it. IF its so kittening stupid, why did you even bother doing the meta in the first place, when you could just roll with your elite wvw guild into some elite uber mega awesome GvG.

Just finished the meta( June 2nd. 9:50am local time, Server: Desolation EU). Got my chest after entering EotM.

1) The earlier people completed the meta achievement, the lesser chance they had to get chest. I might have a correlation with the bug.

Might as well be that. Finished it after season’s end.

2) Some people have the wrong tournement place achievement. The zero point AP to show where you ended in wvw spring tournement, is wrong for some people, and almost all of those people didn’t get a chest.

Did get 25 AP for completing the meta and 0 AP for the second place achievment

3) Some people who never/very rarely transfer, also got no Chest.

Never have transferred, just guested.

4) People that completed the meta last week/even AFTER the tournement ended, have a very high chance to get the chest.

Very true. Just got it today.

5) People that transferred seems to be affected a lot also by the bug.

No idea here, since I have never transferred.

6) Dolly finishers seems to be missing.

They are missing.

So I was checking the promotions tab in the trading post and I noticed some tooltip error I guess. It says 44% price reduction of the 2000 gems, but with the reduction it is 1600 gems. And it should be 1120 gems. Or the price reduction should be 20%. Just putting it out.

Its Lux… everyone knows he is a troll

ShinjoNaomi.1896:

Two reasons for threads like these…

1) Trying to start drama…
2) Poking fun at said attempt to start drama.

Patch will get here when it gets here.

This reminded me of something…

Q:Sir, sir, when do we get there?
A: We get there Hawaiian Time.
Q:What does Hawaiian Time mean?
A: Hawaiian Time means… we get deare, whan we get deare!

Just two things:
“How do we build trebs in here”? – Asked during a Foefire map.
“Get off the treb, I have full treb mastery, I will cow them all down” – Battle of Kyhlo = kitten???

At least teach them something in the stupid tutorial, please Anet.

Agreed

/15chars

So as the title says the recipe is gone from my Tailoring tab. I only have the antitoxin and the mad king left O_o … HOW? Why? Give back please, or give back to money I spend on it?

I just want one more buff. Since mesmers got their scepter trait buffed to +200 condition damage, I wish our shield trait got a buff to +200 toughness. Would it be so bad??

Why not adding a debuff like “Reavealed” against Stealth to Blind? Blind will still be there, but wont be so Overpowered.

Since they all wanted to change the “take a warrior, instead of X(insert random class) in dungeons”, I say we start spamming in front of every dungeon:
“LFM 4 more warriors, not accepting anything else, #yoloanet”.

We might as well just quit playing warrior – pve/wvwvw/pvp at ALL. So that the warrior population drops to 5%. Then they`ll need to either remove the class, since it is non-existent or finally put some THINKING into it and fix the darn class.

XII.9401:

Summary:
You play/played a mesmer
You don’t even use DOE
You downplay the OPeness of the mesmer class and apparently think the warrior class is fine and we are mostly bad players.
Your good at math when proving the obvious. Hows the Lead Developer of jGW2API thing coming along? I’m not sure since I try and play/have my warrior class fixed.

Ok, now, I`m not saying DotE is the KITTEN fantastic trait and all, but GOD be my witness my “unviable” spartan build started working against bunkers a lot better. For God`s sake, instead of being happy they added something , that MIGHT get useful in the future, all you do is picking up a fight and telling everyone how underpowered your warrior is. Because he was only correcting obvious mistakes you made. About Null Field – IT IS A FIELD, it is avoidable, no smart player will stay in it. About DotE, it is not a field, it comes with every attack, aka it is avoidable only on dodge/block. And YES that 21% dmg boost, actually makes the fight against bunker guardians a lot easier.
It is one thing hitting 950-1000 crits, another story is adding 200 dmg over that. In the beginning I was thinking it wont matter exactly, because protection reduced the dmg by 33%, but hey now it reduces it by 12%.. hmm… makes you think, doesnt it?

Also, instead of turning this part of the forums into a thief/necro/mesmer/ranger/ele whinefest and of course waste time, try to PLAY your warrior, without any kind of fixes. It will make you a better player, and hopefully, when/if the fixes hit live, you`ll be overpowered beast, pummelling and bashing people around .

I do enjoy my Spartan build a lot. Takes a lot of players by surprise, but it takes also a lot of practise/error to get good at it.

I also dont like Defektive`s builds, because they rely on team support a lot. But kitten , I do have great respect for the guy for at least TRYING.

No, thank you. With the upcoming changes to weakness, I would prefer having it, instead of stability, which the thief fotm will most likely remove anyways. Weakness on the other hand removes the effect of vigor, and they are buffing it, so that it will actually reduce burst(according to the last pvpSOTG).

I have the exactly same problem with my Nokia Lumia 720. Every caterish time I try to read something from the forums the SS given by OP shows up. To even worsen the buginess, when I click on the back button of my phone(to go back to the last page), the same thing shows up, after clicking “Continue…blablabla…” it just loads and shows me a white screen of nothing. Please Anet fix this already, it`s been out there for MONTHS.

The ohh Lord conspiracy one!!!!

Wanted to test it out.
So I opened 800 coffers ~ 22g .
I got around 1500 Zhataffi ;
10-20 of all types of Candy ;
~ 100 Fireworks;
10 Risen Knight Minis:
Used the Mystic Toilet and got
– green Wind Ryder ~ 40s;
– rare White Moa ~4g on TP;
4-5 of all kind of potions( which are really lame, for such a low drop rate);
1 Ticket in the last 20 Coffers I got left.

That is the first and the last time I`m doing anything like that. At least I got a ticket, and not like you guys.

I do have a suggestion as well. If someone ragequits or goes AFK for the first time the penalty should be 15-20 min. Then if there is a second offence it goes to up to 1 hour. On the third offence it is up to 6 hours. The debuff restricts you from entering any kind of spvp, tpvp, wvwvw or dungeons. The penalty counter resets every day, with the daily resets.

EDIT: Also the debuff stays on you when you logout, just like the buffs.

What if they make it a minor trait? Just like the Air minor trait elementalists have( making you move 10% faster in Air Attunement). I`m not sure it was called minor, but what I mean is making it a 5 pointer. Maybe then it would be better.

I have cycled pretty much trough all the 70+ pages and have seen maybe arround 4-5 dev posts.

What is up with that? I do know they are short on staff, but at least one dev post per page would not be so hard. Either just telling us something like “Yes, we are looking into that”, or “No, we dont consider changing this(or that)”. It gives us the feeling that we are still considered by the devs, right now I feel like nobody cares for us, and most importantly nobody reads the warrior forums.

I was having my PvP FDS until the last patch, which actually made me curse and swear, more then the nerfs and stupid buffs to several professions, and got me a 72 hours ban. So I dont know what you did, but after this patch it is gone for me too. I did have some problems with linking the HoM and even getting items from it, but when it got fixed 2 months ago I was able to get my PvP FDS.

Only thing I liked doing in the story quests after Claw Island was leaving Trahearne die and never ress him until the end of the mission( if he was not needed to end it anyway). At least there were no annoying whiny depressed chit chats based around him.
