Guild Wars 2

Holy crap, stop trying to change the persons opinion, if they doesn’t like the changes then THEY DON’T LIKE THE CHANGES! And nothing you say can change that. I don’t like the changes and I’ve been around from early on. I vehemently hate the changes to weapon and skill unlocks. by level 15 I had ALL of my weapon skills for ALL of my weapons unlocked before on alts (because that’s what I did) now I can’t do that (which is something I liked to do so good job ANet telling people how to play the game…FFS). The elite skill being locked until level 40 is also stupid as now people with the mistfire wolf or who planned out a leveling plan to have a decent elite right at level 30 for going into Ascalonian Catacombs at level 30 or so are now prevented from doing so (can’t have people thinking about how they want to play their character, that requires thinking and planning, nope too confusing to “new players”)

These timed ones blow… at least the Halloween one I could at least attempt due to a decent delay in the start time to give people time to load into the JP itself, this one the snowflakes start melting before I even load in (and getting a new computer is NOT an option at this point). Timed puzzles behind a loading screen are a bad thing. since not everybody has the same load in delay. Just having the snowflakes start melting say 5 seconds later would be more than enough time to give people on lower spec machines a fair shot to actually START this puzzle

the only real solution would be for them to increase the time it takes for the snowflakes to start melting, the Mad King’s Clocktower was manageable due to it having a decent delay in the amount of time it took for the cloud to climb up. Here the snowflakes melt before I finish loading, increasing the time it takes for the snowflakes to melt by 5 seconds would enable people on lower spec machines (who are already on lowest settings) to have a shot on this one.

Yes, all your characters will transfer over properly, only thing that doesn’t make a transfer is progress in your guild, for example if you’ve made progress on upgrades on your home server, when you change servers you’ll have to reacquire the influence for those upgrades. (NOTE: The upgrades are retained on your home server if you ever go back)

No, it does not trigger the cooldown since it’s not a server transfer.
