Guild Wars 2

Agaetis.4518:

So back in April ArenaNet released their very nice Manifesto. A quote from there states “It all gets back to our basic design philosophy. Our games aren’t about preparing to have fun, or about grinding for a future fun reward. Our games are designed to be fun from moment to moment”.

What happened to that? They made an awesome game that holds so much promise for years of fun. Why change stance now and implement systems that games like WoW and Lotro tried and abandoned?!

Their clarification just makes me more worried! This kind of gear progression will just segregate ppl and if this how it will work in coming dungeons I can’t take a break for a couple of months and run current content with friends since I won’t have full ascended gear… :p

It’s an old stupid system, lazy, and boring game design to have this kind of artificial barrier in group content. I held ArenaNet to higher standards than this and hope they think long and hard regarding the path they take!

Hope the community can in an ordered and constructive fashion enlighten ArenaNet that this is not the game we bought and hoped to be playing years to come!

Cheers, Agaetis

seriously, i dont know how you guys can do so much dmg with backstab. in the mist on heavy golems with glass cannon build and armor etc. i got only 4-7k crit with backstab.

its already known for a long time, though anet has it probably at the bottom of the to do list…

its not an exploit, but its definitly too powerful!

they are not as good as we wish them to be. maybe you spend the 2g when you have enough money in the future.

yeah, got it already, but not its just showing ???

yeah, they dont respawn anymore for me. 13 hours ago i mined my last orichalcum. maybe they increased the respawntimer? but nothing in the patch notes.

Server: Riverside
Map: Cursed Shore

I can confirm, my orichalcum nodes doesnt respawn! I know where they are and others can mine them. The last time i mined orichalcum was 13 hours ago.

and he probably used the backstab burst build.

i agree with some points but its not impossible to get the orbs back if one server has them all.
im on riverside and we are currently against vizunah and far shiverpeaks. far shiverpeaks owned all 3 orbs, but now we have 2, so its possible but they are too strong, i agree. and night capping is some serious issue.

you can spam pistol whip 3 times, so you need 3 stun breaker to avoid most of the damage. likely you only have 1-2 stun breakers. you cant avoid pistol whip so much like you can with blurry frenzy or 100blades.

maybe you forgot to discover some caves.

well i said it in another thread, but “i will avenge you!” was greatly overpowered because all your killed (not downed) allies rallied if you had killed someone with that buff.

i am no glass cannon, but my 100blades does max 10k dmg on light armor professions in wvw with 3orb buff (ive specced 20 strength, 20 discipline).
so if you do 20k dmg you are a glass cannon i guess? so you do eat dmg like hell?
unless a warrior is specced fully glass cannon, 100blades does not make 13k+ dmg, unless the victims are glass cannons.

i think that shout would be overpowered, except maybe with a cooldown of 240s and a duration of 6s. so take away stability and the debuffs and its ok with a much lower cooldown.

the funny thing is, with all the effort you have to put into the legendary weapons, all you get is Aesthetics. I wouldn’t stress too much about it (unless your 1 of those RP players). To add the only reason people really want this so bad (right now) is because no one else has it yet. Who cares about aesthetics, its all about being the “first” to do something. Not sure to feel sorry for you.

Legendary weapons are not only Aesthetics. They are stronger than exotic weapons.

the source? legendary = exotic in terms of stats i think.

yes, it so frustrating and annoying.

the only human racial skill which is a little bit useful is the condition removal skill. some professions need it.

i have a question for you guys. it is possible to lose the “vengeance debuff” without the trait?
in pve i vengeanced 3 times (without the trait) and didnt die. i want to know why!

i want to see a video with 20k dmg with hb and ww in the current game build and the victim is not a glass cannon. in case it is, then its his own fault.
there are many ways to avoid this dmg, like condition removal, stun breaker, invulnerable, stability, teleport, dodge…
yes it is a little bit annoying that nearly every warrior uses greatsword (so am i), but this is not just the case for warriors, guardians too. people just love the greatsword (the look and the feeling) so they shall use it.

“i will avenge you!” was very(!!) OP. if you killed someone with this buff all allies which were dead (not downed) rallied.
Imagine WvW, your zerg is dead and you manage to kill someone with “i will avenge you” and instant all your allies are alive…just OP.

last stand and defy pain have a internal cooldown of 90s.
if you use balance stance before last stand is triggered, last stand gets a 90s cooldown, too!! i dont know if this is intended.
maybe same for defy pain and endure pain? i have to test it.

Hi.
The minor trait “fast hands”, which you get with 15 points in discipline, is bugged.
In and out of combat i get a random cooldown on weapon swap.
Out of combat 0s or 5s and in combat 5s or 10s. Its like the first swap gets me the higher cooldown and the second swap gives me the supposed cooldown!

Can you guys confirm this bug?
