Guild Wars 2

What a boring way to add them back into the game. You really couldnt make them a craftable recipe or mystic forge? Something to give them a little prestige? Nah just grab at more money for GW1 nostalgia.

I hope the same is not planned for Obby armor.

Just figure i’d let you guys know if you didnt the HoTs website is not displaying druid or scrapper specializations yet both still say coming soon and have no art displayed in the picture.

So so you all know I have mained ranger since GW1 and do love the look of druid but here is my problem youa re back to the problem you were avoding when you made this game. So now everyone waits around because they need a healer and druid is the only healer. Why didnt you make atleast 3 of the classes dedicated healers with this. You can’t tell me Guardian and Ele could not have been dedicated healers aswell. I mean their elite specs are lack luster anyways and I have not heard one person who is excited about them. So now back to the old waiting around because you need that healer to get on so you can do the new raid. Great job.

Bug Fixes:

Fixed a client crash in PvP. – No you didnt.

Next time can you guys be more vocal with your community. I know you guys dont like to tell us anything but just a lil headsup.

Anet you could have atleast been a lil more open and told us sooner instead of wasting my whole day.

That doesnt seem very fair anet. You guys dont keep this kinda stuff in teh game only on the site? Seems like a poor design plan. I mean I can see my ranked wins and loses why cant you pull it from there? Maybe you have to go through each individual player but thats your job.

Can you let us know if when it is fixed it will have the games we are currently playing?

Proposal Overview
Personally I would like the guild Halls to be set up much like a large castle. Inside the gates would be farm land for getting your harvesting nodes, maybe some sort of recouces it will cost the guild to keep them “watered” but really alls it does it keep them there for everyone to enjoy. I would also like to see player housing be put inside the castle and of course the guild lord in the throne room. I would want many different set ups to be chosen from the different cultures of Guild Wars and regions of guild wars aswell. Also damage done to the guild hall is permanent after a guild battle (where another guild invades your castle) Until the guild uses its funds to repair it making it vunlnerable to another attack from another guild. Guilds that win in GvG can take a small amount of gold or something from the guilds vault. Adding some conciquences to GW because we are lacking them.

Goal of Proposal
The goal would be to give guilds more of a purpose and meeting place to there own. Currently i’m in a guild but the only real sense of togetherness we have is through Guild Chat. I cant even tell you what half their characters look like and who has what weapon or what cool title because how often do we just get to hang out all together ina non combat enviornment. Guild Wars is seriously lacking the rp in MMORPG. Alls it is is fight, kill, repeat. I want things like fishing and housing but that is a discussion for another time I suppose.

Proposal Functionality
I assume a new button would be added to either the Guild Menu or the top left corner of the screen which will take you to your guild hall. It would cost Guild Merits, influence and a whole lot of gold to buy. making it a good sink and goal and possibly upgrades would make the time sink even larger.

Associated Risks
Not even reason to just hang out in the guild hall because of lack of down time activities.

So I heard recently Engi and Ranger are getting buffs. My question is are there any necro pve buffs coming aswell as necros are prolly the most lack luster dungeon running prof atm and d like to play my nec more.

If you start a Sylvari character you fight an enemy at the end called the shadow of the dragon. He has an orange glow that seeps through it’s skin as well do Summoned Husks. After stomping Scarlet we see a movie in which an orange glow begins to seep though her skin aswell. Is there a connection here or just a coincidence?

1) Why did Scarlet want to get Mai on the council? (would she just approved straight away a giant drill in LA?)
2) Why did Scarlet have a hatred towards humans?
3) Why did she attack the queens Jubilie and try to kidnap the queen?
4) Did Mai escape? Did she return for the battle in LA?
5) Why did Scarlet need an army? (the only thing I see she needed was the Nightmare and Krait to get the Miasma)
6) What did she know about Caithe?
7) Who is E?

So is there any answer as to why Teq got stronger?

Maybe they could just make players actually a physical thing, like you cant walk through other players in wvw. This would get rid of stacking which would make less players in a single place and also create tactics around body blocking.

I can see the Pact trying to lay claim to it as they were the ones to fight to get it back, but I also feel the humans would not be leased with this and I don’t think the pact would want fighting amoungst their own given they are a racially mixed military force. Also it wouldnt be much worth the hassle given they don’t really need a whole landmass of that scale. Would just be a waste of supplies to guard it and govern it while their are dragons still to be fought and found.

If we do clense Orr eventually down the line of the living story, who is the rightful owner? I would guess either the Charr or humans but would that reinstate conflict between them? Charr technically won the fight but it is also the land of the human gods. Or would it be an entirely different deal where it is just open game for everyone. I imagine nations would want the land though given the powerful magic there.

So I’ve played GW2 fine since beta, but today I started it up to find it looks as if it should be played with 3D glasses on. There is double of everything and it is all red and blue. I tried running the repair command which had no effect. Any idea what has happend? Thanks for the help for those that answer.

Spoilers I havnt really had a problem with Scarlet before this latest update. But really the reactor was suppose to be something different some dragon related thing or mage…something. But really Scarlet? It feels like you just couldnt give the time to make anything creative so said yeah stick her in there! So the huge mystery is Scarlet just decided to blow it up. Whoopie.

I’d love a twilight like version of The Dreamer. Instead of a unicorn maybe a black horse with a fire mane. The bow would be black with fire scars on it aswell and maybe replace the ribbons with a smoke effect. The horse that is shot is replaced with the new black fire horse that is on the bow.

Please add a timer that gives the length that characters have been offline for in guilds. It should not be hard at all to do and is still a missing feature that has been asked for from the start of GW2.

I think they need to give him a love intrest for the next expansion and than kill it off after they finally get together by a dragon.

Well are Americans considered good today? I mean to me it looks like Humans background comes based off American history. Came to a new world, took land that didnt belong to us, fought each other(civil war), drop a nuke to stop a war (possibly bloodstone?), and maybe America helps with a few things aswell creating the U.N. as one as in Guild Wars Lore humans did do good things aswell like defeat the Mursaat, save Cantha from Shiro and the infected, and in the end kill Abbadon. So guess it’s up to the looker to base a whole group on things the new group have no control over and to look at their poor qualities or good ones.

Don’t forget us Humans love our big walls. The Great northern wall, Ebonhawke has a huge wall, even Divinity’s Reach is just one huge circular wall from the outside. So yes maybe Charr would win any war in an open field but humans have a huge advantage on defense with the height and might of their walls.

YOu could WvW, Collect every armor in the game, go for titles, help new players, joina guild to do dungeon runs with instead of joining pub groups, start an alt, do Spvp, get into build making and mess around with things, Do guild missions, try to find secrets in the game that others have yet to find and maybe even find out some new lore, do every dungeon and every path in the game. I could go on but everyone has something they like you just need to find it or if you get bored for a bit just take a week or two break. This game has no fee so you will not be punished for it and they update it every month so there will be something new to come back to.

Also for this I was mainly meaning heroes used in dungeons. The only real place the game forces you to play with others. If I want to go through the whole story alone I should be able to including the SM of dungeons.

One of the greatest things of GW1 was being able to play the whole game with as many people as you wished. GW2 completely ditched this very popular mechanic. I’d love to see the return of heroes so if I wish I can play a dungeon by myself or just along with one other friend.
Sure it’d be more complicated AI they’d have to make for dodging but for skills it’d be pretty easy and players could easily micro manage their heal, utility, and elite.

How do you feel about the return of heroes?

Adding on something I read a little bit back in the thread that gave me an idea. Would it be possible while pets are on heel to have that pet give an active buff to the ranger. Maybe each pet gives something different (bear gives might, Canines give retaliation etc).
Or maybe we just do more dmg with our pets nearby(On heel) sort of like the bosses in the AC SM dungeon. So we still have our pets with us but we do not rely on them so much and we are trading in their extra tank for support and extra damage.

If you ask me the dragons are the human gods. 6 gods=6 dragons, and not like this would be the first time gods have shown themselves as dragons in the world. There was a quest in EoTN were you had to find traces of the gods or something like that and how they showed them selves were in dragon form. Also each of the dragons I believe represents something the human gods does, Undead, Fire, Ice..

Evalana is always welcome on Mag. Our commanders never take supply from hills!

Haha im not saying it wasn’t wrong nor am I saying at all that she is a bad commander. Just stating the same thing she did it did not need to be posted here.

Good thing you’d never complain about DB on these forums and go straight to the DB forums…ohh wait looks two pages back ohh would you look at that. 2 posts in a row with three pictures one of a commander complaining and not discussing it on the DB forums? Someone say hypocrite?

Yeah … ::looks 2 tabs back:: (3 tabs now) – All I see are 2 score updates… ::looks back a few tabs:: and a bit of sarcasm and um… not much else really.

::edit:: – I noted on the comments the ‘sarcasm’ to point it out for those without a sense of humor.

So your pictures were deleted just like my comment was. Still does not mean you did not post 3 pictures saying things like “I quit dragonbrand” And pointing the camera straight at a commander taking supply from hills and posting them here. But considering they are gone I guess this disagreement is pointless and im just gonna drop it and move on.

Does the trait Strength in Numbers stack? (Two guardians running the same trait have it so it adds +70 to nearby allies, does it cancel out or add up to +140?)

Strength in Numbers – Nearby allies gain up to 70 toughness based on your effective level.

Basic question or suggestion either way.
Why does this buff not give anything useful to being outmanned. Things like added toughness, power, healing power, etc?
This would be a lot more useful than the pointless buffs that in no way helped an outmanned team.

Please make Story Mode playable solo. It is way to hard to find parties playing this mode because it is pointless for most players to do so. I pretty much played WvW my whole time on GW2 but now I wanna get into the story a bit more but it is impossible to find parties doing story mode. If I could run it solo I would but that I feel is impossible aswell. If anyone can run these dungeons solo please tell me and I guess than I’ll just have to try harder.

I really wanna wear the Koda armor on my ranger so I would very much like to see this put in.

Ya Id like to also see more armored med armor. Just to add some variety from all cloth dusters to some shiney armor like the heavies get.

I agree less dusters please more armors like Prime from GW1.

Drednyte.7601:

perfect fix for the massive zergs: anet implement a no more than 5% population advantage on a map. That way regardless of time, maps are always basically even populated. Longer queues, maybe…force players to stop stacking on one server and spread out on them all.

So the best defensive for your own boarder land would just to be have none of your own players on it because than no invaders can attack it. So this means everyone is forced to play on EB BL. But what if no one is on EB when you try to get to it that means no on will ever be able to enter it ever.

After getting to see it more than once I have come to the conclusion the only place Breakout should occur is on EB not on home BLs. I just think this makes more sense and would not be as annoying as it is currently.

So just witnessed my first breakout event on the defensive side. We had some arrow carts up and took a bit of pushing after the shields went down but we took them with our gate left out about half. So we went to go grab our supply that they had taken to repair the gate only to return and find that they had another one coming before we could even repair. I could see being given one every hour or so but one not even 5 minutes after the other, there is no possible way to defend a tower to that kind of pounding over and over.

Rethesis found something very suspicious in our public ventrillo, we took care of it though. Was kind of weird when 50ish DB respond as fast as a ninja mesmer portal into inner garrison takes lol, and a level 1 guild less following around RE Commanders nonstop lol.

Whatever it takes I guess, but just know DB will get its kittens handed to them in T4, and once you get bumped down here we will be better prepared for that next time. Grovel and beg for any other server jumpers yall want, were still going to push your face in during NA Primteime, while yall PVD when were asleep.

We had found your mesmer multiple times and had around 10 people looking for him because we knew what he was up to. We all warned our whole team. He was a very good mesmer getting away from us a few times, but he popped the portal inches away from me, I and a few others then warned our team and and of course people shew up it was a garrison.

I highly doubt someone had gotten on your vent if that is what you are implying.

Airship! They have them dont they? Just a massive airship to bomb the enemies in would be fun. Guess we’d need AA guns then as well.

I wanna play ball with my puppy!

If you want HoM achievements play GW1 like we had to. Who knows it’s a pretty good game you may enjoy yourself and learn some of the story.

Well here is something atleast…http://www.guildwars2guru.com/topic/18447-guild-info-discussion-thread/

I’m pretty sure they plan to add this. before the game came out I swore there was a news feed saying stuff about it like you can upgrade it as you can do in WvW for cannons and all that to defend against other invading guilds. Could be wrong but i’d say Guild Halls will surely be added at some point. In the mean time ill try to find that news article if it actually exsists.

I agree with this thread. At this point you could have never even touched PvP and become a commander and lead your whole team to their death.

I personally would love to wear the Koda dungeon armor on my ranger. Sorry for double post.

Should just let the transmutation stones work over light/medium/and heavy. That way you get the look without the actual advantages or disadvantages. WOuld prolly be quite an easy thing to change as well.

You can stow your pet. problem solved.

Could have it so their character is kept in the work for at least a minute after they log out in a pvp zone
