You don’t have to buy the dyes. I don’t buy them, I just loot them. I guess I’m just not in a rush? How long has this game been out? A few months? I have 200+ dyes and I have looted all of them & to be honest I don’t even use maybe.. 190 or so of them. I had the thought in the past of “Dyes should be shared between toons” then I thought in a role-playing aspect “Why would this character have something that my other character earned?” then it didn’t matter so much anymore. If dyes were account bound, it would take several months to make just one item to create a Legendary weapon.. Why would we want to make creating Legendary weapons any more difficult? If you want to buy the dye packs from the Gem Shop, just wait til’ the conversion goes down. I feel it’s fine the way it is. The only thing I find upsetting about the Dye system at all, is that the recipes to craft a rare dye pack requires far to many materials to chance getting a common dye. Now that isn’t right.
Maybe just give accounts with a level 80 & 100% completion an xp bonus to all other characters? I don’t know how much of one but, I can see the reincarnation thing causing quite a stir. I know in other popular MMOs older accounts got bonus xp for being a certain age, so it’s not a crazy idea.
I agree with the weapon coloring idea. Maybe they should make it so we can customize the weapons. Like, have recipes that make different style banding, that can be colored with dyes… Or have artificers make polishes that can be applied… Just some thoughts.
I find mounts unrealistic in the world as it is now. But, they could implement a mode where players ride dolyaks or other creatures and have a friendly mounted battle in an instance. There could be rewards for the specific game, like lances and saddles. You could even unlock ‘somehow’ different mounts.
Concerning rez as an elementalist… Since they have changed it to only ‘help up’ DOWNED allies it’s pretty much only helpful with dead NPCs… It takes so long to cast, by the time you get it off most of the time the downed player(s) is dead, and the skill no longer works… I really can not understand why it was changed. If people were finding it unfair in PvP and WvW… restrict it in those parts of the game. But, in dungeons where we are a team, there is no need for nerfing it.
I do want to put it out there, if the skill was changed because people found it ‘unfair’ in WvW/PvP it really was not. The skill took A LOT of time to cast, the animation for casting it while standing over a dead player is a dead give-away that they should attack that player… It’s not like one ‘world’ had players who could rez and the other didn’t. This is where player skill is eliminated.. Which is something many players want in a game and look for in a game, a challenge! Not players complaining about something because they couldn’t think of a way to counter what the other player was doing, so rather than think about a strategy they hop on the forums and complain about it.
Here’s an idea! If GW2 is going to make the forums a place to decide which direction they go in a game or what they change, based on the players who come here to complain about skills.. Why not make it fair and just send polls/surveys to our emails so everyone can decide? Not just the people complaining. People who find the game good as it is, aren’t going to get on the forums to counter all these complaints. Therefor, we aren’t going to have as much influence over what the developers decide.

When previewing items allow players to preview them in ‘combat stance’ so we can see daggers & items that glitch into our armor.
Make multiple tabs for the armor we have equipped so we don’t have to keep taking on and off the many different suits we have. Even just 2 tabs would be nice. You could make it so we can’t change suits during combat, so the tabs would ‘grey out’ when we engage.
Make different stances available in the gem shop. When I’m standing around town chatting with my friends. I click through skills just to keep the stance. If there were different stances, that’d be awesome.
Fishing. I just love fishing, it could be like a mini game or just like harvesting is & require hooks & a pole or a net. It would open up more crafting recipes as well.
An animation for when we eat food or drink a potion. At least make it so the food we consume is the food animated. It’s odd to see my character eat a bowl of soup or a berry and pop out a loaf of bread to munch.. as seen in other games.
The skill [Healing Rain] – Elementalists should either be able to move while casting it or it should take less time to cast. I’m always finding myself move just a second too soon canceling it out.
Make [Ghostly Tonics] and the like no longer drop from treasure chests, or not a rare item at least. Most of the time I just delete them & feel like they are wasting a chance I had at a decent item.
When you put a stone in a wooden staff or scepter, make the stone on the top of the staff the color of the stone/gem that was put in the socket.
A lot of people have been talking about mounts. Well, I think there should be a mode where we enter an instance, and we get to ride dolyaks & play some sort of game with certain skills we get from being mounted.
Oh and, the elementalist skill for teleport, is horrible. I don’t know if it’s not working properly or what. I have reported it as an issue but that was a couple months ago now. Mesmers get a portal that they can place on different level ground and pop in and out of… But the teleport elementalists get shows as you can place the target to teleport & there is a flash of lightening at that location.. But the character remains where it started. Seems broken.
Well, that’s all I can remember that I have thought of right now. If any of this has already been addressed, sorry I must have missed it. If any of it is in the works, cool.

^YES^ I agree 100% – As an elementalist if I got pulled in I was downed instantly!
Yeah, overall I’m pretty upset with the event. I got on a few hours after act 2 started to find out that there was a one time attack/event I missed. Okay, I can deal with that… Then I go to talk to the scavenger hunt NPCs. I used the Wiki to do all this & on the Wiki it made the events look like you had to do them in order… Due to the scavenger hunt being bugged, I didn’t do the second scavenger hunt thinking them to be sequential… I stayed on all day during act 1.. Waiting for the event to be debugged… Finally after 10-13 hours of waiting Anet announces it wont be fixed til’ act2 begins! So I went to bed… When act2 began I went to try and complete the second scavenger hunt… I spent a couple hours looking for the Quaggan under water, then I find out after asking other people that we are unable to do this scavenger hunt after Act2 began! Wow… So now my sleep schedule is all flipped about & my eyes are blood shot like crazy… I go to sleep thinking “Oh well, I’ll get to do Act3”… I wake up today, get on the GW2 webpage to read that it was ALSO a one time event. Yeah… I’m going to take a good long break from GW2.
