It seems to be the only class thus far where a slightly higher than normal latency can result in the majority of your weapon swings missing the target. This is probably because the creature may actually be slightly farther ahead of you than what you see on screen. Ultimately I thing the lag compensation needs to be adjusted.

Also attacking a stationary destroyable object (the road blocks by the Sons of Svanir come to mind) can miss a lot when using a melee weapon. You have to find the perfect angle to actually hit the object.

Actually I find that you need to move while swinging sometimes in order to hit objects such as gates/trebs/etc. If you stand still, all you get are misses.

Ironically, this makes Hundred Blades completely useless for taking down objects when this bug occurs lol.

True, it may just be that you have to be moving. I think we can agree that it’s extremely annoying when you want to destroy something and you have to run in circles around it just to get a hit.

Unfortunately, I’m the one talking to a wall. Skill usage is a single element of PVP skill. Being incapable of understanding that there’s more to the game than that will be your downfall. Warriors are rewarded greatly for mastery over the other aspects of PVP, possessing some of the strongest and most class defining skills of any class. I encourage you to roll a different class if you feel this one is lacking, but will not consent to the notion that it is indeed deficient. The warrior does not suit your playstyle.

What is the Warrior playstyle? I really want to like Warrior, but I just can’t figure out the best way to play him.

I’ve found that using “LFM” is much more effective than “LFG”. Even if you’re not in a group, the psychology behind seeing LFM seems to make players more likely to join you. It’s kind of funny really.

I think they’re having trouble with back items clipping too much. I don’t remember where I heard that but I know I heard it somewhere. That’s why capes are temporarily unavailable.

Report them for bad behavior and move on. Having a feature like “kicking to overflow” and putting it in the hands of a mob is just a bad idea.

Besides, were they RP fighting or actually fighting? If they were doing it over area (/s) chat and it was serious then it probably counts as spam.

I think this would be difficult to implement with your Personal Story. If they could add it at all, it would probably have to be at Level 80 when your Personal Story has ended.

Instead of a Commander wandering around in an area randomly adding people by clicking their names and inviting them, maybe give them an AOE spell that they channel. It would create a colored ring around the commander who is channeling it, and the players who step within that ring and stay there when the channel spell ends will get an invite. This would make it much easier to advertise that you are looking for people to join your squad as well.

The Commander could vocalize something like “Join me, brothers!”, “Let’s form up!” or a similar phrase. Overall I just think this would be a much easier way for Commanders to quickly form Squads in times where it’s needed, like in WvWvW.

One thing I have always loved in terms of dynamic events is the occasional rare one that only happens once in month, 6-month period, etc. I feel like the mindset of “something rare and spectacular could happen at any second in any area” is one that can add sort of a thrilling excitement to logging in and exploring every day.

So do things like this exist to an extent? Most events I have run across have been things I could re-run across in about 30 minutes to an hour. I have yet to get to a high level though, so maybe more rare events exist at higher levels.

I too am a little disappointed in my Warrior so far (level 17). So far there hasn’t been any skills that I particularly enjoy, and I’m not really specifically looking forward to any skills later down the road.

The weapon switching is something that is new to me (my main character is Engineer). I hate to say it but I really don’t like the switch weapons feature. I feel like one of the weapons should be ranged and one should be melee, but I know some people switch from one combo of weapons to another. I just can’t figure out which combo is better for what situation, so I tend to stick to a single weapon. Am I doing it wrong?

How about a mic-based voice chat system that alters your voice to sound like your characters?

Oh man, I know this isn’t really possible but just imagining it makes me excited. This would be a hilarious feature.

I agree that P2P trading is just unneeded. I don’t see any reason for it to be a feature. If someone wants an item, they can usually find it on the Trading Post. This eliminates a lot of scamming. Sure I suppose scamming can still exist by saying “Mail me this and I’ll mail you this” and then taking the first item and leaving. Most people, hopefully, won’t fall for that though.

If you want to give someone an item you can easily mail it to them. If you and your friend want to trade (to give each other a discount or something) you can easily just send each other stuff through the mail, since you can trust one another.

The Trading Post is also easier to control in terms of the economy and making pricing fair. Once the initial kinks get worked out I don’t think anyone will feel the need to have a P2P trade system anymore.

This looks very interesting.

Btw, are mods like this allowed or are they against the rules? I know other MMOs have things like “add-ons”, is that what this is?

I first want to say that I absolutely love the music in Guild Wars 2. Every track is amazing and it really adds to the game as a whole.

One feature I would really appreciate is a chat command to view the name (and possibly other info) of the current music that is playing.

Typing /currenttrack into chat could bring something back like “Track 06 OST, Trackname” as yellow text in the chat window. I would really love to listen to this music outside of the game, but sometimes it can be daunting searching around for “that music that plays in this area” or “the music from this quest”.

I’ve transmuted mine a few times.

My first character is an Asuran Engineer, and I sort of screwed up on the way he looks and would really like to tweak it. I noticed there currently isn’t a make-over option in the BLTC Gem Store, but I’m hoping this feature is added soon?
