Meta-Event Chests Account-Wide

The only exploit would be guesting. The only way to fix this is to make it so you can not get the chest from guesting. There is nothing wrong with doing a dragon multiple times a day because you only get to get the chest once with that character with a three hour cooldown between the dragon spawning.

I’m not just talking about one dragon event, I’m talking about every single meta-event (basically everything tracked by Dragon Timer and a few more.)

The list includes:

  • Claw of Jormag
  • Tequatl
  • The Shatterer
  • Shadow Behemoth
  • The Frozen Maw
  • Fire Elemental
  • Jungle Wurm
  • Orrian Temple Events
  • And a few more…

Again the only exploit is involved with guesting. All meta events tracked by the dragon timers are a 2 to 3 hour cooldown. The only one that is every half hour is Maw. You chose to have one character, thats no reason to punish those that have multiple toons. Also put link of this anti grind policy on doing meta’s with alts to get the chest.

i have one! stealth nerf on elementalist, like decreased boon durations from shocking aura and frost aura, and decreased duration for boons coming from cantrips with soothing disruption.

why not scroll to the very bottom and see what they have done since the initial patch.

What bothers me is this: this removed a lot of Warrior survivability. Where is our increased tankyness to compensate? Even Warriors who do not go all ’zerker are relying on Pies/Ghosts to survive.

That is false, I survive just fine without them. If you are downed every second then you might want to look how your playing and tweak it.

Dyes - to Identify Or Not To Identify

If you identify them you can sell them for lots more than the few copper for unidentified ones.

Do you vendor your Unid. Dyes? Ouch.

Last time I looked at Unidentified dyes on the TP was a long time ago. And no i always discover them to find out what the color is. Also rewrote original post.

I think I’m going to start selling them.

There are only a couple colors I even want and I’ll probably never get them. I would probably get them quicker by selling the unidentified kits, banking the money and saving up to just purchase the colors I want outright.

If you identify them you can sell them for lots more than the few copper for unidentified ones.

Not if you have luck like mine..haha.

I always identify them, and I always get colors that no one seems to want. I’ll probably just keep opening them with the slim hope that I’ll either get a color I want or one I can actually sell.

then sell them to a npc. either way you will get more than unidentified ones.

What has been fixed for Rangers since Dec.?

in Ranger

Posted by: redhare.9210

redhare.9210

Can only fix what is broken and the ranger currently has no real bugs tbh. Having said that i do have some suggestions with regards to ranger in game both for pve and wvw.

  • make rampage as one affect friendlies.
  • provide a trait that gives damage boost upon stowing of pet.
  • maul is a blast finisher.
  • make pets squishier, pve is too easy with ranger.

1) rampage as one should not effect everyone else due to the fact its not our pet.
2) You do not keep pets stowed in combat and you should never be able to
3) no comment
4) Pets die pretty quickly as is. if anything they should make the bulkier ones have more toughness.

the original statement I made is false. I have not looked at them on the TP in a long time so I assumed that they were the same. I would still identify them.

With the “horn autoattack” i think he means the fact that, if you use horn 5 with an enemy nearby and autotargeting, you automatically aggro that enemy and start attacking it.

On the good side we are now kings of underwater combat….thats……something, right?

Yeah that is the Horn bug i meant.

Why is that, what did they do with underwater combat?

It’s a joke as much as anything. We had that first patch where nothing happened with ranger (October 22 https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Update-Notes-October-22-2012) and were promised “substantial changes” in the next patch. What we got next patch was 150% more damage on Harpoon auto and some other minor tweaks to greatsword (November 15 https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Game-Update-Notes-November-15-2012). This lead to lots of jokes about the ranger being Aquaman (marvel superhero reference for those who may actually not know). We’re pretty good underwater but once you get us on land we’re not so useful anymore.

December 14 (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Game-Update-Notes-December-14-2012) we got a fairly long list of changes but none were really useful changes. They were all ‘nice’ changes but they didn’t make or break any builds except the Lick Wounds change (still buggy but more powerful when it works). Unfortunately most of the changes from this patch can be described as “changing the awful and useless into mediocre and useless.” This really includes the melee pet hitting better and the arrow flight speed changes. What was awful and useless is now mediocre.

January 28 (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Game-Update-Notes-January-28-2013) was just some bug fixes really. Again nothing bad but the only reall changes were condition stats applying to Entangle (finally!) and Drakes actually using Tail Swipe (this is pretty good actually).

And that brings us to today. I don’t have high hopes for the 26th (next balance patch) but I suppose it’s possible something good will happen.

Basically the answer to the OP is since December nothing noteworthy has changed. The ranger plays exactly the same as before. What worked before works now and what didn’t work before still doesn’t work.

Well Aquaman is DC not marvel. Stan Lee would never write that kitten

It has been 250 years since gw1 landscape can change over time due to forests being cleared and climate changes. In Kessex Hills you can still see some of the jungle. Landscape does change. Might take in real life longer but not a big deal in a fantasy world.

Will open world PVP servers be considered?

Posted by: redhare.9210

redhare.9210

In gaming’s 15+ year history:

Consensual open world pvp and guild vs guild has been the most fun and popular with the majority. Or at least a separate server for it. I prefer the original concept. In my opinion, GW2 pvp using a strictly game controlled instanced scenario based gameplay is not as fun as open world player controlled.

But i do not think Anet will ever change their design of pvp/WvW, because its been a main feature of gw1 and gw2.

Look at it this way. Other mmo’s have multiple factions at war with each other. Or the good versus evil mentality. I can not say this for every mmo but all major ones since 2004 have a limit on who you can attack.

Ok ill give you that. The rest of the world is beautiful. Though the only foreseeable problem is the current worlds lore. Just would not make sense.

I agree with you there lore would be a problem, but I am sure they can tweek lore for the sake of one pvp server, look at it this way, we in America, Euro, aross the world fight with each other, we have gangs, click’s ect. same should holds true in GW people, beings fight each other, but still fight for the same common goals, freedom, love for country ect..

Yeah but say your a human attacking a char. You would never be allowd back into DR due to the fact you have put the treaties integrity off balance.

In other mmo’s their are reputation gains in order to get newer rewards. One thing that, in my opinion, would make this game better would be reputation with diffrent groups found in tyria.

Just for example lets have a rep for Kryta be given when killing centaurs and bandits in kryta. This would be a grind but you can make some of the rewards be reduced waypoint cost from krytan waypoints to krytan waypoints. Also have a new tier of cosmetic armor available to those with high rep.

I just dont understand why you just ignore wvw. All the aspects of open world pvp are there. There is always toons runnin around solo trying to get map completion that you can gank. Why have seperate servers when they made wvw for this type of player.

I haven’t tried the bleed warrior build yet but I love his Heavy Arms build. I was a signet/GS warrior until around 60 and then saw that video and switched. I rocked the rest of the levels faster than all levels before. Almost done getting the set for heavy arms, just need a proper weapon, and then going to fool around with his bleed build.

When a toon has no equipment and no trait points spent every class has the same power, prec, toughness, and vit. The only difrence is that warriors and necros have the highest base health.

Nerf the warrior damage or health

in Warrior

Posted by: redhare.9210

redhare.9210

Why is it that Warrior should be nerfed? Dps to high? Health to High? Well Im here to say that a warrior with no trait points and an elementalist with no trait points all have the same states as each other. The only stat that is not equal is health. So why did Warriors get a bigger health pool than Elementalist?

This link might help you learn why.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Aggro

So warriors at close range need the higher health to not be downed in one shot.

And I just want to say this … again. There is nothing legendary about buying something from the TP. Also, you’re a few months too late to not be seeing a bunch of people running around with them. People have 3+ already, better get crackin’.

Wow really Ive maybe seen 3 legendaries on my server
