SE helmet looks like a beluga whale now

I know this is awfully nitpicky, but just another example of charr getting shafted when it comes to armor skins. The Sorrow’s Embrace Dredge Helm was updated to show horns and to fit the charr’s mouth. However, they added this ridiculous looking bulge on the forehead that makes us look like beluga whales now.

There was no point in doing this, unless somehow it made humans (all hail glorious human master race) look more natural in them. But let’s be honest—who even wore this helmet other than my Iron Man/Charr lookalike?

This bugs me a lot. I feel like it probably deters people from buying them and planting them in Lion’s Arch, which in turn causes other people to waste influence and commendations on crappy, not-everything-in-the-game banners.

March 26 update wasted on T8

I think my biggest problem isn’t being in t8. I’d be perfectly happy if they kept the matchup the same—moving HoD down a tier will just mean that FC/ET will get stomped by HoD instead of SF.

My biggest problem is simply FC/ET’s WvW population and drive to do WvW. Unless there’s some kind of motivation to be competitive on either of those two servers, it ruins it for all three servers’ entire population, which, according to the transfer list, is almost the same as Jade Quarry’s and Blackgate’s.

I’m sure it’s been said already so:

Default roster sorting should go by rank AND online status, not just online status

Let us copy and paste guild announcements.

Obviously, a lot of people don’t pick what server they PvE in based on WvW. However, ANet picks what server they WvW based on where they PvE. The update is wasted on everyone who never WvW’s but enjoys an actual WvW match.

This matchup used to be pretty well-populated. Once it got one-sided, though, people stopped going, which is where the 20-people-to-a-map problem started showing up.

Certainly. I wasn’t trying to exclude SF guilds from that incentivization—but as it is, I’m in one of the biggest guilds in SF and no more than five of us WvW in a week because it’s just not fun, but there’s no viable way to switch everyone over without starting from scratch.

So apparently Tier 8 threads are a joke among this forum, but I’m posting anyway. The 3/26 is going to be completely wasted on thousands of people unless Arenanet does something to artificially fix this matchup. As of 3-22 match reset, Ferguson’s Crossing and Eredon Terrace have been trounced within under an hour. The update focuses and earning rewards for killing people, but in an hour I was able to kill maybe 20 people across two maps.

Is there no way they could incentivize big guilds to volunteer to transfer by making all the guild upgrades carry over? What about making free server transfers for a week or something? This is no more fun for Sorrow’s Furnace than it is ET and FC.

My computer will periodically have spans of enormous load times. I have a relatively new computer that runs on max graphics, but the 30-60 second load times will randomly hit 2-3 minutes.

Right Click Targeting

When you right-click an object/enemy, it targets them. So, whenever you pivot the camera with right click to aim your character, it targets whatever random trash is in front of your cursor. The big complaint is that this doesn’t really make any sense, because left-clicking is the standard for targeting something.
