Guild Wars 2

Any way to disable it except killing all effect sounds?

Test.8734:

Here we have a full transcript of yesterday’s presentation (thanks to the guy who wrote all that down).

Interestingly, twice Colin mentions “our no-grind philosophy for Guild Wars 2”.

It appears ArenaNet really believes their own Manifesto, when the same Colin said, “We don’t want players to grind”.

We just need to let them know that, between Ascended items and slow dungeon rewards and Legendaries and the new level-based unlocks and the new trait system unlock and etc etc, well… Their “no-grind philosophy” has been extremely grindy.

Agreed

No endgame after exotic sets done there is just grinding ascended items and legendary and then grind for another character.

These threads always make me wonder if the OPs would go to a shopping center with McDonalds, Burger King, Wendys, and Subway, go to the Subway, order a sandwich, and tell the owners, “Sandwiches are okay, but what would be really good is if you sold hamburgers… and french fries…. and maybe chicken nuggets. Yeah, Subway is pretty good, but if you sold hamburgers, and french fries, and chicken nuggets then you’d really have something great.”

Hahaha good one but we have shish kebab here rules all

No.
Stop these threads.
If you don’t like it, you have tons of copy and paste options out there.
But this is not one of them.

Time to bookmark this thread to recall later when Anet makes certain roles like healing have more emphasis, along side “no vertical gear grind, go play WoW” Ascended, and “We have WP’s go play Archeage/WoW if you want mounts” Hang Gliders threads.

Yes,I am also curious.

Thanks I decided to wait till new news comes out

Gw2 was my second mmo after Lotro (I was playing lore master there,support/crowd control/debuff you can understand what is my play style) and I experienced worse dungeon system here which are skip trash and push boss to a corner,dodge zerk,dodge zerk,dodge zerk… really no strategy…etc Whatever it is called “Holy Trinity” We need more roles,tactics out of just zerk.

Out of curiosity, what do you mean, “bring back” the trinity? We never had it in the first place.

Some (will) say it’s all about marketing.As a mesmer I say Shatter!

Before HoT comes out what should I do ? Should I sell my globs rare craft mats..etc

“We’re reimagining progression with our new Mastery system. Explore new training opportunities for your character beyond level 80 and master abilities like hang gliding in the jungle, tearing the bark off of heavily armored Mordrem, or building new collections that earn precursors to a legendary weapon.”

Will they increase max level? Any recommendation is welcome.

No. Go play another game.

I don’t like the focus on zerk for pve but pvp in trinity is awful and Anet can create opportunity for different requirements. Just no might as well only 3 classes with 3 amulets.

Anet doesn’t even need to change the stats to get rid of zerk, they just need to revamp bosses and harder encounters. However, I doubt they will ever do it because that will require players to actually look at their skills and press some more buttons in which case many seem to find really hard.

It is not that Anet can’t make Pve more challenging. It is simply that the current MMO community is full of casuals and they can’t handle harder content therefore companies dump down the overall difficulty.

Maybe before enter dungeon make slots to choose for extra some two or three skills based on slot to choose tank,support or heal.

There is nothing stopping you from doing that now the concept of letting people play the way they want to still applies just dont join people who want to finish the content faster cause they have other commitments in life other than spending 1 hour in a dungeon attempting to kill some mob.

You know there is dungeon seller out there if not wanna spent 1 hour can do 5 mins but this was not the point.
Strategy! This game just lacks most about this in dungeons just zerk! Pretty boring gameplay for me after doing again and again.Please try to undestand me.Some will call me troll or whatever,I say no… I like this game.

Swish.2463:

sometimes i put it on my bar if i want to pretend i only have 2 utility skills…

but in honesty i’ve tried to make it work over and over in sPvP and vs Engies or boon guards its not bad…

it’s just not good either

i have all the same boons and get all the benefits but i don’t have their skills to re-spam them and i still dont gain the blocks and sustain they have ontop of them… they also still have all the boons..

I tried pretty much on pvp nowadays mimic is totally medicore I do not miss if I choose another skill instead of it but old mimic was indispensable! Total drawback.For a new worthless mimic Anet seems wasted pretty much human intelligence here

It’s sad to read it won’t be included during season play because of whiners… -.-

Who uses mimic nowadays just wondering.I find it not useful after changes which used to be one of my fav. skill.

Syrius Gorn.5384:

Remove this, stop create troll post plz

Troll post? No way if you experienced courtyard ranked arena that means more people wanted and chose that map right? all of them troll?

tichorum.2415:

It’s fun. Keep it in unranked at least. Gives a change of setting. It’s nice.

Courtyard rocks need bigger version of it

LanfearShadowflame.3189:

Gods, the thought of this is terrifying to me.

Me too :|

After I see whining people that most of them are probably! constant deserters in my eyes because a normal player do not afraid of dc dishonor (first one 15mins its nothing) that happens rare if dc happening to you more then you are just a burden for your teammates you should understand that and leave.This is gonna be real better than the system that we have now.

Instead of able to using all weapons I think this implement can be more better:
For example sword for warrior is usually for condition damage but if a weapon have two style like condition sword and burst sword and you can choose that like switching weapons before entering combat.This styles can go longer as support sword…etc

I can say easily if i dc and get dishonor I’ll accept that with my whole heart this is better.

Umm I post this about 6 days ago and new improvements’ news came already.I wanna say good work

1,2 and 6 checked
Pretty good to hear

GoogleBrandon.5073:

Was Dishonorable back though?
I thought it was disabled since there are massive and multiple disconnects happening?

I mean last time SoloQ (2 weeks back I think) was a 3v4…

I heard something like that I used to see that but nowadays none

karakurt.8690:

Seriously do not move this to pvp forum just bring real punishments solutions against 4vs5 in pvp I really got enough nearly %50 of solo arenas 4vs5

Man,It seems I really pi#$%sed(? why change like kitte.ned well english not my native language but this shouldn’t be that rude to filter) whatever not my fault

Thanks for info I knew about this but I thought that removed somehow.Also “Stacks expire while offline” make this online and see what happens

Never heard and seems not working is lock account or character bound ?

Seriously do not move this to pvp forum just bring real punishments solutions against 4vs5 in pvp I really got enough nearly %50 of solo arenas 4vs5

List some of your priority fixes that PvP needed a lot from highest to lowest.

1.Balance of 4(3) vs 5 of solo/team arenas,Hot join for solo/team arenas
2.Serious Punishments(Debuffs) who left solo/team arenas
3.Vote kick for solo/team arenas -some stays afk aren’t they?-
4.Give a ultra low setting to avoid lag friendly skills -not everyone have good pc right?-
5.Give 1(2?)sec defiance duration after stun…etc CC duration ends to stop stun..etc CC chains
6.Let us choose which maps we wanted to play in solo arenas when that maps comes let us in

“Communicating with you” means for me generally : "Well I’d like to help , but not as much as I’d like not to " situation… Check Game Uptades: Traits forum.It is alive proof enough.

Yeah retaliation is just additional damage depends power but even when i go full berserk power is about 2200 and it hits 198 + (0.075 * Power) = 363 but now power 1152 and retaliation is 284 fair enough.Distracting strikes looks promising but against condi cleanse builded players will not be effective

I prefer again regens by Healing Signet +Adneral Health and Banners

I didnt like some things http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Warrior_-_Banner_Bunker berserker stance doesnt help a lot warhorn and cleansing ire are more than enough to counter conditions in defense tree stance and defy pain not helps as regen and dodges.

I just decided most of things v.2 of this build is :

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQRBMhl21ITHtgWAiZI0hGIJoQ3BZwcfKASHDHRRA-TpRAwAHOCAaOBAsLDA4BAwd/BOHEAA

I switched Rune of Water and for secondary sigils sigil of water and in mace+shield sigil of doom quite tricky

Here what I am using right now at pvp and pretty strong against most cases but I have some dilemmas

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJAQRBMhl21ITHtgWAiZI0hGIJoQ3BZwcfKASHDHRRA-TZRAwAHOCAsLD85kAA4BAYb/BA

For sigils I really need help for secondary sigils much
Rune I am a bit confused how about Superior rune of the Monk.Does %10 outgoing healing effective?
About Traits Everything is ok except these dilemmas
I feel like I wasted 2 points to Arms to get a bit more bleeding but not seems worthy all I want a decent dps.
I am thinking to try instead of that Restorative Strength,Warrior’s Sprint or Signet Mastery for healing signet Also these may look promising against zerg that should give good boon to counterattack to bring down one shiny berserker in them: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Short_Temper http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mighty_Defenses but doesn’t work as I tried maybe I am wrong

In Defense tree Shield Master vs Missile Defflection-for the love of God I really love when rangers trying to push me at skyhammer- love both.

And about Banners: Because of that I wanna roam and support help I choose two defensive banners one for middle generally Banner of Tactics and another one for hot battle zones
To sum up as I read here http://mistpedia.net/mediawiki/index.php/Category:Roles I wanna put this build between Bruiser (Mace/Shield stuns) Closepoint Defender (Regen! yes that helps a lot) and Roamer (Sword/Warhorn run!) yes these seems too much but I wanna try with my all might

Any constructive advices gladly accepted let’s make together invincible banner warrior.Well still pretty strong enough :P

Ok…We promised each other.I shouldn’t tell this anyone but I can’t keep this secret anymore.I and Tybalt stole Queen Jennah’s apples…

TheBlackLeech.9360:

The only thing that is comical is the overwhelming amount of buthurt in this thread.

If you are having trouble beating a class in pvp, why don’t you actually run the build to find out what the counters/weaknesses are?

When I first started playing pvp I had a lot of problems…
I had trouble fighting against thieves till i played one in spvp.
I had trouble beating PU mesmers till i played one in spvp.
I had trouble beating turret engi till I played one in spvp.
I had trouble against terrormancers till I played one in spvp.
etc.

Learn the strengths and weaknesses of a build.
…and know when you are NOT going to win a fight.

What many of you fail to realize is that…
You will NOT always be able to win in a 1v1 based on skill alone

Some people are just running your perfect counter.

Yes I agree you can not always win plus I wanna add one thing if you wanna beat turret engineer as a thief run D/P with full Berserker
1.Stay close
2.Stay closer and If you want drop a Smoke Screen inside turrets somewhere
3.Stay close to engineer

Chris Whiteside.6102:

Ok cool let’s start it of then Donari:

Note these are my personal top three priorities:

1: The ability for guild members to be able to show of their prowess and achievements through Guild Halls and their own avatar customization.
2: The ability for players to work together in a fun way to build something different and exciting.
3: The ability for smaller guilds to enjoy guild halls.

Chris

In addition to first a guild timeline/photostream would be good addition.

Teamplay! This! : Today all these guys that in solo arena are pretty good players I think. They didn’t give up till the end even we didn’t talk and we won.Fortunately I was recording

Come on guys tell me: Will you change this system sooner? Otherwise I will start to buy my traits don’t make me feel like a dumb with a change after I bought them.

I am pretty curious about solution/answer maybe there are another players like you and they don’t know.Bah… so curious

Don’t know where to post this but I can’t summon Banker Golem and Trading Post Expresses.Maybe this is always like this and I just learned.Screenshot here also.

Hey there,

I would advise posting this to the ‘Forum and Website bugs’ so this issue can get the proper attention.:)

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/forum

Specifically this thread?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/forum/Search-feature-not-working/first

huhahahaha good one.deal with it anet

I was about to create another topic but thanks google search not gw2 forum search I can be able to find this well lets stay on topic.
I also had same issue but I can move with Infiltrator’s_Arrow but stucking still continues.

lazycalm.5186:

I don’t know how in earth they haven’t implemented a penalty for players who leave yet

Totally agree and today is the day as anothers that I got used to,so we started 4 vs 5 and another player left middle of fight then we are 3 vs 5 in rated! arena and I just feel soo awesome(!) I said hell yeah! so epic.
I wanna have this kind of experiences in rated arena pvp.Everyday I woke up I pray Dwayna about this : “Please anet give us change to have 1 vs 5 in rated arenas so I can have fascinating experiences as a ‘death’ hero”

Rage.9723:

I am really happy to see an ethical guild with honor being advertised. Fight for honor for the righteous, not false honor of the wicked. Some of the most prominent guilds and people in general are actually the most unethical. They rely on misinformation campaigns and people with personality disorders similar to their own to back them up. Real people recognize real honor. I am so happy to see such an impressive guild being advertised.

Ah thanks for kind words this one is much server ad or server patriotism in my eye

“A guild is a place where you and your friends can gather along,a place where you can find work to do… and for children with nowhere to return to, a place they can call home.”

Nowadays where I go I see people from another borderlands except my own home ”Aurora Glade”.

Since we live in a peace with all races after tough times,now monarchy forces us to live with another borderlands,but they are not our friends just foes…

And every guild started to be a victim of that dark order.

I am Kara of Aurora Glade.This is where I belong.This is my only guild,home!..

We are not puppets! of monarchy.

We are Aurora Glade!!!

OOC: While surfing on web I just set on fire by that video which added insult my injury.

Server wide guilds and after megaserver that I really dislike.Server identities are just going to extinct only a little viable just at WvW.I like to know,help my server people just like old days.For a lone wolf player like me (one person guild) and others like me I think server is our guild nothing more or less.I say yes If you remove all guilds and make servers guild of its players :P

My last suggestion is :

Instead of forcing everyone “Unlocking Traits One by One”
You better start working on “Three Brand New -Raid- Dungeons”

Each one of that for unlocking

Adept Trait Line at level 30,
Master Trait Line at level 60
and Grandmaster Trait Line at level 80.

And leave unlocking “Major XIII Traits” same as before.

Keep working…
Peace

People that you listened them in this topic (!) are very grateful to you.

Me Games Ma.8426:

It’d be really awesome if we could use utilities in these slots. Not every build would use that but I’m certain it’d open a lot of new stuff to play around with.

That would be very good.I think most of people start to use utilities instead of off hand weapon.

Yeah I just gave warrior as an example but I saw that in my dream my warrior has that skills and post forums Side effects after playing much gw2 and sleep after that.
This idea can be seem as trash addition but if happens there won’t be any negative effects I think.

What if professions have off hand empty skills? Think what can warrior do : a head toss a little daze and hold neck small immobilize like racial skills fair enough ones and for other professions just name it.This can be nice addition.

Good to hear and see Anet staff responding posts,communicating with us.I feel like GW2 players and Anet at Andrew’s Tavern at Divinity’s Reach :P
To celebrate ,I think it worths, here some of my GW2 screenshots

I think new warrior changes are good maybe more than good for me:

Signet of Might and Rage,Rampage,Rousing Resilience Trait,New Fierce Shot,Whirling Axe,Arcing Slice and more goes positive sides

-%5 damage reduce and adrelaine loss more than before is nothing to talk about so much.Warriors still will have a lot of adrenaline after balance.
