Guild Wars 2

So the other day I was thinking about legendary weapons. I was thinking about how much I love the ability to change stats but how, next to, useless it actually is at the moment. Since you can’t change sigils on legendary weapons without destroying them, you need to have two of the same weapons anyway if you want to have multiple sets of armour. And then I thought well what if you could change the sigil instead of the weapons. This brought forth the idea of a legendary sigil.

In my mind legendary sigils would be sigils of legendary quality. A purple sigil that has the ability to swap into any kind of sigil. It can be crafted through the mystic forge and would roughly cost 100-120g per sigil. I think this would be a good price since it’s not too expensive but it is more expensive than any sigil on the trading post right now, but for the karka slaying sigil I think. Runes would probably be a bit less expensive since you need 6 of them instead of 4. Maybe a rune could cost 80g to make.

If this was to be implemented at some point it would solve the legendary weapon stat swap problem and it would give us players some more cool legendary stuff to go for eventually.

What do you guys thing about this? Would you like legendary sigils and runes or is it an aweful idea?

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if it is possible to bind a key to the action mouse 1 executes. I would like to be able to use tab and mouse one for clicking on stuff. And I would like to use q and mouse 2 to perform the mouse 2 action. The reason being for this is that my right hand starts to hurt sometimes from all the clicking, so it would be awesome to be able to switch that for a little bit to give my right hand some rest.

Does anyone know if this is possible? If so how can I do this?

Thanks for the replies!

That is good to hear for someone who isn’t too awesome at pvp.

Hey guys,

Since this season I am really getting into the pvp seasons
. I am hoping to acquire the legendary backpiece as well since it is really cool.

There is this one achievement that requires you to cross 4 divisions. It clearly says ‘’Cross 4 league division thresholds during a PvP season.’’ but sometimes achievements work different from is stated in the description. So I was wondering does this achievement reset each season? Or does every league cross add to it? For example going from amber to emerald increases the achievement regardsless of the season.

Does anyone have an answer to this?

Hey savacli.8172,

You are totally right. Thanks for the comment!

That is exactly what I am going to do, get more experienced and try bosses on more classes. Also I am going to keep looking for a guild that I can raid with.

I was a bit disappointed but you are right, it’s just harder not impossible.

Thanks for the advice Savacli. I will try to use your tips and see if I can improve.

I don’t think 40 tries is too much, it’s just that the next week it starts all over again. And that is quite annoying.

I see how legendary armor should be an accomplishment. Although I still think that having an easy mode would be good for the game. That way everyone can experience the content even if the rewards would be nerfed to shreds.

I agree about the search filter. It is very helpful and an awesome addition.

The problem here is that I have the skill to defeat a boss once I practice it a few times and learn it, finding a group that has the same skill to get a kill in 1-5 tries is nearly impossible through pugs. I get that Arenanet never made raids for pugs but if you don’t have 10 friends to play with or a guild that is interested and hardcore enough to do raids, it’s very hard to raid.

Hey guys,

In this post I would like to talk about my experience with the raids and how accessible they are for me.

When raids released I was really excited, finally hard content! I tried the vale guardian with my guild and it quickly became clear that my guild wasn’t too interested in raids. So I tried raiding with a pug. This wasn’t what I had hoped, I had like 40 vale guardian tries before I finally got a kill. At this point I thought to myself, maybe I need to find a guild for raids. So I did. This wasn’t much help either got another vale guardian kill but I was still unable to defeat gorseval. And I still am to this day. The second thing I tried was posting on reddit if anyone had a squad they raided with everyone and if I could join them as a back-up. No replies. Then I thought to myself maybe having a second guild but hardcore guild would help. So I posted a thread on these fora to see if anyone was interested in having me as a member. No replies.

The biggest problem isn’t even the raid content for me, it’s legendary armor. Since it’s locked behind raids, I have to raid or I’ll never get full legendary gear that I wanted since launch. Don’t get me wrong I do want to experience the raids because they are a lot of fun.

Some suggestions to solve this problem:

Easy mode: if there was an easy mode for raids, everybody would be able to experience the raid bosses and get legendary armor. Of course on easy mode a lot of the raid rewards would be cut or lessened. I would even be able to raid with my casual guild. I personally don’t see why it is a problem if everyone can get legendary armor, because legendary weapons can also be obtained by anyone. Getting a legendary weapon is not hard, it just takes time. Why does legendary armor have to be hard to get?

An LFG raid tab:

An actual raid tab would make it easier to set up a party, making it more likely anyone will. This would also have to allow us to put up an LFG while being in a squad. I image this could be easily done by adding a new button saying ‘’convert squad to raid party.’’.

An actual way to show skill:

If there was an actuall way to show skill, instead of legendary insight, it would be easier to choose a(n) (experienced or) skilled player to join your raid, for a better chance at success.

Last note:

I am usually a player that just plays and enjoys the game instead of discussing about changes and new content on the fora. But I felt like I had to say something about this problem since I can image a lot of other players have trouble with this. The more people speak up the more Arenanet will consider to adjust (or fix) this problem.

I would also like to say that I do enjoy raids and the difficulty, I do not think raids are too hard.

As a last thing I would like to ask for some advice from you guys on how I could improve my raiding situation.

Let me know what you think.

Hey guys,

I am looking for a small hardcore guild to do high level fractals and raids with.

The reason why I am looking is simple: I am part of a casual guild, that I love, but raids are not a thing there. I really miss doing raids with people I know and progress with them through the raids.

A bit about myself:

I am a very patience person when it comes to raids and other hard(core) content. I will never rage or get angry when attemping hard content, instead I try to learn from my mistakes and improve. My motto is ‘’Always try your hardest.’‘.
I main a ps/condi warrior, but I am also getting into the revenant class, which I find a lot of fun.
Dutch is my main language, but I have a talent for English, I understand and speak it very well. You probably won’t even notice an accent when I speak

What exactly do I mean with a small hardcore guild?:

With small I mean consisting of 10-50 active player. I prefer a small guild since it’s easier to get to know eachother, which will only make raiding and other content more fun.

I think hardcore speaks for itself.

Also I would like a guild that have a raid schedule, on a website or just in the message of the day.

A last note:

I am not planning on leaving my casual guild. I can of course rep the hardcore guild 50% of the time, but I don’t think this should be a problem because of the multichat on the guild tab.

One last thing. I am looking for an actual guild not for a guild that acts like an extention of the lfg system.

I hope to see some replies soon

Hey, I would like an invite as well. Pugs don’t seem to work for me. I have 60 magnetite shards of failing the vale guardian by now, even though I know the boss well. I would love an invite.
