Guild Wars 2

I would love this. Anet, please listen to this guy.

Couple new members (up to 17 now) and edited to include what upgrades we’ve built so far.

Now I know that this only affects the trigger happy, but with the fees imposed on the trading post and having no way to reverse a transaction with a buy order, this really shouldn’t be the default option when beginning a sell order.

Suggestion: change the default sell order tab to not have any of the options checked, requiring the seller to manually check one of them before the sell order can be placed.

I too agree on making loot more attractive for 80’s, though I personally would prefer an overhaul for every level:

• Currently mobs gain abilities / AI as they grow in level (low level mobs are super easy while higher levels have access to more skills).
• Let loot be an inverse of the mob’s AI compared with your actual level.
• Thus any mob with its full set of AI (at whatever level that may be at) should always drop loot as if you were not down-leveled at all while the easier mobs will drop off in loot frequency as your actual level goes beyond their AI level.
• Minimum drop frequency should not be too low (perhaps 75% or even higher; should be set in a way that fastest farming of easy mobs is slightly less efficient than fastest farming of harder mobs) so higher level players do not feel punished for grouping with lower level friends / guildies.

This accomplishes:

• Low level players still get their appropriate drop rates while leveling.
• The higher level you are, the more places you can farm at max efficiency, peaking at level 80.
• Starter zones will remain “less” efficient to discourage exploiting the easier farming.

Suggestion #1 = When changing status to LFG, provide a small box (or dropdown) so we can display what type of thing we’re looking for. Want to run AC Story? Click LFG, change drop down to AC Story. Now show that info (and preferable enable filtering of said info) in the LFG panel to help us find each other. Bonus points if the LFG panel is also made server-wide instead of zone based.

Suggestion #2 = Add a LFG chat channel. This is simply to move the LFG spam off of the map channel and gives an easy dedicated place where people could be allowed to spam all they want to try and organize groups.

2nd should be very easy to implement while I expect the 1st would take a little bit more work, but both would be very much appreciated

I’m using 2 weapons sets: scepter / focus and staff. On the scepter I have a sigil of bloodlust while the staff has a sigil of luck. I expected to be able to build both power and luck boon stacks as I weapon swap and defeat enemies, but instead it only builds the first stack that I begin building. This seems like a bug, but figured it might be possible that there’s a hard limit of only 1 active weapon boon at a time (though I’ve not seen this stated anywhere, causing me to waste coin buying the sigils).

Anyone have a concrete answer on this?

Clicking any of the tabs at the bottom results in a 404 page.

Another idea that keeps it more similar to how it is currently: gaining confusion places a skull icon over one of your primary skills (never chooses your auto attack). Using that skill does damage to use based on # of confusion stacks AND knocks you down similar to a knockback.

IIRC the original purpose behind confusion was to cause the enemy to rethink if it would be worth using the skill or not due to the damage they know they’re going to take by using it. Problem though is that the damage seems to be too little to actually cause that consideration or the enemy simply values the use of their skills to be of much higher worth that the damage they’ll take from using the skill.

My suggestion: instead of confusion causing damage on skill use, have skills gain an increased cooldown based on the number of confusion stacks. This could be a large cooldown increase for the next used skill that consumes all confusion stacks or it could be a small cooldown increase that doesn’t consume the stack. Either way I think this would get confusion back to its intended purpose: making people reconsider whether they really want to use a certain skill at that time, giving the mesmer a slight window of opportunity during that hesitation.

TL;DR: I’m not saying confusion is bad or broken. I just think it would be cool to increase cooldowns instead of causing damage.

The trading post currently shows your coin total on each tab except for Gem Store and Pick Up (the Currency Exchange tab has it, just that it’s top left instead of the usual bottom right).

I suggest adding the coin total to the Gem Store tab as I’d rather know what I’m interested in buying prior to making the exchange for gems and having the coin total in plain view makes it easier to consider how much I have to spend on gems as to whether or not I could afford a given item.

I also suggest adding the coin total to the Pick Up tab as often times I don’t have the time to actually play the game, but can leave up the Trading Post to keep an eye on my buy / sell orders. Having the coin total shown would make it much easier to know when enough items have sold for me to afford the next buy order that I plan to place.

The trading post is the way to go, especially after this initial zerg of items calms down and the buy/sell margins widen a bit.
