I could also argue that easy =/= fun. After all, ‘fun’ is subjective, and there is no way in God’s green land they’ll please everyone.
Scaling down has a number of other advantages as well, such as:
- stops people spoiling events for who they are meant for. If a level 80 comes in and absolutely destroys everything it sneezes at, that means the people relying on said events don’t get the participation needed to get XP.
- keeps all content relevant. Not scaling down while having level-equivalent drops means everyone will farm the easiest areas for loot. Not scaling down while not having level-appropriate loot will mean everyone will stay in the higher areas.
as is with the scaleing now my 80 still solos those lower level events so not scaleing would not stop that
last 3 days i have been trying to log in and i keep getting error codes 42:1000:7006:854 and 58:11:5:504 on the off chance i finally do get to log in i press play on the toon i have and it starts to do the loading screen for the zone i logged off in and crashes saying it lost connection to the server, i have tried a new dns i have tried reinstalling it i have tried all i can think of and i really wish i could play i was working on world discovery and got to 95% before this happened. what is going on? how do i fix it? will i ever be able to play gw2 again?

i agree i also honestly feel like once i hit level 80 i should not be scaled so far down to go do areas i missed before. i understand those areas are designed for that level but a few things
1. i still have to kill the same stuff to do those quests there doing it faster wont hurt, it fact it will make it more fun feeling so powerfull and then leaving to see you are not top dog.
2. there is no mounts so being a high level in a low level zone is kinda pointless as in i still have to walk / run to every waypoint (sooooo lame) and
3. “lower levels may want you to help them with their quests while you are there…” so what i dont want to help them and if i do awesome for them they get a quest done faster and have to figure out how to make up for the loss of exp on their own and lastly
4. i still have just as much chance of getting a cool level 80ish item from wooden chests as i do from mobs it seems so why would i be scaled down to level 15 to get a level 80 rare gratesword? scaleing is bad and it hurts the fun factor of people who dont have all day everyday to play this game (some of us have jobs and lives and significant others who dont allow for “hardcore” time dedication to grind as much as this game demands from time to time)
Every time someone fires off yet another mount thread and refuses to use the search function, Dwayna kills a baby Quaggan.
and we get more fun backpacks
just to point out even with out the meter people will point blame as they already do, and even if it was not an active combat meter and more like a calculator that told you what your auto attack dps is with current build gear and stats and it can always be something you can turn off even
I have thank you, but still nothing back from anet
you are right it would mostly be fore making sure my thief has the proper dmg( for my liking) and survivability. just seeing “this does that when you …” does not tell me the dps i am putting out, and i would like to know as so i know if i can solo that vet or not.
i think that a damage tracker could help in gw2 or a dps meter i would like to know how i am doing on dmg and generally how helpful i actually am vs what i just assume
also getting 26:11:5:506 every now and then
also its not my firewall as it keeps saying because i have made sure everything will allow it
