Guild Wars 2

Gunnar’s is a server worth fighting for. It made me get up at 4am at some point just to take 2nd place off FSP in season 2. I stood there at the cannon waiting for their pvd zerg to hit our hills.. gave those kitteners a 1 hour fight untill the 4 of us had no shells left, but stopped them from taking any other keeps because dawn was coming and with it GH was coming alive again. Never thought i would get up in the middle of the night for an mmorpg competition but there i was for Gunnar’s Hold. Now that i’ve quit the game with HoT i’m still looking at the ticks and forum chat every day and feel like a deserter Gunnar’s isnt for crybabies and people who want to get carried by offpeak pvd.. GH fights with teeth and claw for their place in silver and many a foe have praised us for the enjoyment we deliver. Not only to ourselves, but also to our enemies.

Pink Quaggan cooooo \o/

Behold, a true abomination!

Ermm .. there is also the possibility to buy half the gems with real money (as you say a lower price would be acceptable) and that way need lees gold for the transfer.

These days with the buffs in Southcove it’s pretty easy to make money. Imho that’s the better solution, than deleting your chars.

also i wish quest giving was better, i hate just running in to area to have the quest just appear, id rather go to the npc involded, accept the quest and learn about what im going to do. maybe if they added some epic quest in it would be better. i mean can any of you tell me quest that made you go, “oh wow that was one epic quest”, instead of, " wtf is that all the xp i got for that :’( "

Yes. Linneas and the vicious tacklin’ rabbits.

whats the story for that one ?

No real story, you are collecting fur while getting knocked down by bunny rabbits, quite annoying I thought. Leads to an event that you kill a veteran jotun.

you see, thats not a quest, thats a task,

now imagen you had been given the quest to save a womens daughter from a jotun up in the mountains and you had to sneak up to its cave covering your scent with the fur of rabbits, but while escaping you get corned by the jotuns brothers and have to defend this girl from being killed, after returning her safe you discover she had be promised to the jotun as part of a deal when she was first born but the mother had changed her might after she was taken, the girl find out, leaves her family and demads you take her to LA where on the way she insist you show her how to fight as she wants to join the lion guard but was never aloud to (as she held at home by her mom for the day to be handed over to the jotun. <——-

now thats what id called an interesting quest. do you lot have any remakes you would rather see?

Maybe you should should be on quest design. I enjoyed just reading that, imagine all the story in between. I definitely don’t think of the events as quests, nor do I feel like an adventurer. There were a lot of cool quests in GW1 that had this type of design.

One of my favorites from WoW is where you talk to the ghost of a girl whos father died in the war and you collect her doll parts, put them together and give them to her. She doesn’t know she’s dead and asks that you go find her father, it goes on and is really sad. Things like that really connect you to a game, so I’d like more of it of course.

Another example is one where you kill a zombie that is harassing a graveyard and you get a book telling how he got that way, he went off to fight in the war and came back to see everything in shambles he asked everyone in town of his family, he went to the graveyard to see his wife and 2 daughers names on tombstones, started flinging his sword in a fit of rage and ended up killing the 2 keepers of the place IIRC, killed himself after realizing what he had done and you get his sword that glows at the end. Another sad quest and those are relatively early in the game.. oh the memories.

Those are TRUE quests.

i want freedom of stats allocation.

give us blank skins.

let us slot in the major and minor attributions ourselves.

Which isnt contributing to the topic, so please leave it in yours. You dont have to bring it up again and again if you were shot down before.

At the topic.

They stated in an interview that armor sets are more complicated then weapons to make and thus it takes some time till we will get new ones.
However you are right. There should be new ones.

Right now we only get some “lame” reskin townclothes in the gemshop and that is a disapointment in my opinion.

I’m all for new armor…At lvl 80, full exotics (karma) light armor, the skins are all the same… Whether you get it from Arah, or Grenth, or Melandru….

It would have been much better (opinion alert) if each one had their own “special” armor. Something “growing” for melandu, and “deathly” for Grenth, and maybe something like a Battle Mage for Balthazar, but sadly, no… they’re all the same.

I do hope they put in more skins, but I also hope they don’t make them so that anyone can buy them. I would rather be able to see some guy in Uber Super Skin Plate Armor and absolutely KNOW he earned it.

It can be easily soloed. Just learn its attacks, they’re all telegraphed and easy to avoid, and don’t screw up with the shards.

Couldn’t have said this any better.

You can definitely do a power build with staff. I use dagger/warhorn for my 2nd weapon set so that I can burst anyone who gets close to me. I would also highly recommend specing to be able to target where you drop Wells and using Well of Suffering as it does a lot of damage in a power build.

There are a few variations of builds that you can use, but something like this works very well:

Lich Form does a ton of damage so use that when it’s available, use your wells when they are available, build up your life force to 100%, switch to that until you get to 50% life force then hop back out and use your staff or dagger attacks to build it back up and repeat.

I usually switch out my third utility depending on the situation. I often like to use Spectral Walk or Signet of the Locust in WvW or sPvP.

I was wondering if it might be like the doppelganger in the Augury Rock mission of GW1 – actually literally based on your own character. That would make it “personal” and would explain how any of us would recognize the person no matter which story branches we chose.

I think you nailed it. It would explain the hardest criteria to meet (must be recognizable by everyone).

But “that charr” is Rytlock, who is a main character of the game.

I’d buy a Quaggan plush, but my pipe dream is actually a Zojja or Snaff plush.

/agreed

As it is now, no one can readily tell what does what, not even myself. More impressive visual cues would also help others know when and what a Necro is doing to help out in a battle, too.

I don’t mind the marks as they are I just wish they had better effects as a whole they are kinda plain right now.

I am assuming the point is each mark should look distinctly different so people know how to use them at a glance. In which case I approve this message.

I remember when Arenanet told us that fear is going to be a necro specific condition and I was happy like really happy, because I always liked fear. However Fear is not only available to other professions but they are actually outperforming the necro in that regard. Every fear on every other profession has a longer duration than the fear of the necro sometimes even 3 second duration. WE would have to trait for that and then chain ALL our available fears together! How is fear necromancer specific when it actually isn’t?
