Current DR hurts more than helps

I completely agree with this. I have played since launch and can honestly say that farming is the one thing other MMO’s have that I miss in GW2. I have had a few friends who mentioned DR as a major reason they left the game since they enjoyed farming so much. It isn’t game breaking for myself but I can definitely understand how it could be for some.

I don’t know what the answer is to combat bots but I do feel that punishing the people who enjoy farming in their gameplay probably is not it.

Bounties Training Mission is a ripe-off!!!

Honestly I like the IDEA of the training missions. I think that they had the right idea on adding content for smaller guilds. Sadly the implementation feels hasty and not well thought out.

The biggest problem I see with the missions is the time limit along with the complete lack of locational information on the bounty. I do not feel that I should have to seek information from a 3rd party on the “possible” location of the bounty. Having to alt+tab every few seconds is NOT a fun game mechanic. I do not mind searching for a bounty and if the needless time limit were increased I wouldn’t feel the need to seek out location information to find the bounty. They either need to provide more information on the bounty location or increase the time limit.

When a small guild invests influence into these missions, which take 3 days to train, I’m pretty sure most of them expect to succeed. The probability of success should not depend on a needless time limitation of 15m; I think 30m or an hour is perfectly reasonable considering the amount of other things to do in any given zone. Having needless limitations is not fun to anyone and it is a lazy excuse for “difficulty” imo.

Sword/Mace – Longbow

So with the new changes I’ve been trying out some different things with my warrior, mainly in wvw. This is a sword/mace and longbow build I’ve been using for 2 days now and I really like it. It isn’t great for all situations but i have had a lot of fun playing it.

Here is the build link:

All my armor is exotic Knight’s gear and I’ve been using beryl orbs instead of the soldier runes but either works.

nobody transfered here prestab only FC and ET gets free transfers SF (the green doesn’t get them)

Ah gotcha. I apologize for my inductive approach. Is the score usually so one sided in that tier?

Nice, well thanks for the info fellas. Hopefully all the bandwagoning zergballers will move out of your tier in a speedy fashion. I never understood why people transfer to an already winning server… oh well… just me I guess.

Larger Party Sizes

in Suggestions

Posted by: prestab.9173

prestab.9173

I feel that maximum party size should be larger. Currently 5 to a party works fine for dungeons but for guild events and wvw it is simply not large enough. I honestly don’t even think that a raid type interface would be required for this (although to do it properly it would) but to be able to see more of your guild members on the wvw map would be a much appreciated addition.

Have to say, last night was some of the most fun I’ve had in SoR BL in quite some time. Thanks to TC and SBI for all the fights.
