i dont believe its anet’s fault if pll cant read “100cm Tittle food pots x classes”.

“100 centimetre tiny food pots multiplied by classes”

totally baffles me why some people can’t read that too /s

maddoctor.2738:

I will give you an alternative to your third option:
Increase the daily AP cap by an amount equal to the amount of your un-obtainable AP.
So for example, if you did absolutely everything and you don’t miss any AP at all, then your daily cap will be 15000.
However, if you are a newer player and miss the “hint completion” achievement (which doesn’t exist anymore) then your daily cap will be 15010 AP instead.
This keeps things simple, instead of trading daily AP for un-obtainable AP, you continue finishing dailies to get those.

^this
Best idea ever

I can’t recall ever playing a game where, when you died (essentially when you failed in some way), you still automatically were given every bit of the loot you would have acquired if you stayed alive, contributed to the fight, got ressed by a comrade, or used other mechanics (like WP) to rejoin the battle.

In World of Warcraft, if you fail to loot a creature which you have legitimate loot rights over, the game automatically mails you the loot. It doesn’t matter how you fail to loot it: Death, disconnection, negligence; every single bit of loot you earned is mailed to you.

Defending the fact that quick-loot doesn’t work while defeated is suggesting that, “Well, you had loot rights, but they’ve been revoked temporarily.”

This is NOT WoW. In this game if you are downed or dead, you can’t loot manually. If you can’t loot manually why would anyone expect that you can if you have autoloot?

Maybe it’s for Net Neutrality awareness?

I’m guessing either a joke on the rumored project code name Papaya

Or Something something Forgotten, as I seem to recall the forgotten were big in the desert way back when.
Paths of Forgotten?

I am so sick of this lag (which I never did before) and the constant DC. Im alway repairing this game and apparently its not working. My pc and internet is fine, the other games are fine,, its just this game. Cant something be done or are they Ddos again?

The GUILD is your identity. focus on that, you will have fun. server pride? there’s probably only 5 people on each server with server pride and 3 of them don’t login when you’re losing. Exception is Magswag, they have about 7.

Pugging is dead. Long live pugging!

I am pug, hear me RAWWRRRR!!

Dev sneezes
Half hour video by Wooden Potatoes and a datamined compilation of that-shaman

I have found that if we want to run a squad without the commander tag just create the squad, have the commander drop out then someone invite them back to the squad. Keeps the squad without the tag.

I’m one of the crowd that doesn’t make meaningful, lore appropriate names for my chars. Since I’m not a role player at all I find them boring, at least for my own chars. I chose names that are a pun (usually bad) or amuse me in some way. That doesn’t mean I don’t take a long time to find the “right name.” Just that my criteria for choosing a name is different from yours. For example, when the Revenant was announced I debated names for a couple of months before I settled on one. (I named her Smallmedium Atlarge).

Carighan.6758:

It made it annoying to WvW, tbh.

I mean, even if you don’t care much about the rewards themselves, you feel hounded by that timer, constantly threatening you if you don’t rush,rush,rush to the next camp, next dolyak, next keep, next zergfight.

It does a very good job in reducing the already inexistent queue times on non-top-realms, though. >.>

My BL was literally empty and I went trying to cap a tower next to camp, destroyed the wall myself, got the lord to 25% before a pew pew ranger attacked me.
I did all of that, almost capped tower, and when I died, yeah guess what I had decay.

I have literally no idea why people are defending these decisions. Playing for the fun they said…

This is bad Anet, probably looked good in theory, but its bad in practical setting. Pls fix Rip roaming til fixed.

/sigh, more promoting of no skill ktrain blobbing. Do the devs think out their decisions? Yes, that’s a rhetorical question.

sigh,….after i abandoned PVP in season 6, wvw roaming was my last bit of enjoyment in this game. Now they made rewards even harder in what is the lowest rewarding gamemode of GW2. slow clap

I live in WvW because I like freedom in my video games. I’m very picky with what I play because anything that tries to hold my hand or prevent me from exploring or experimenting with stats, etc., I automatically dislike.

I enjoy losing myself in adventure and combat, just wandering the land at my leisure and learning effective strategies for different encounters as I go.

WvW lets me go where the wind blows while also playing what ever I like and generally not feeling discouraged about it.

I may get frustrated with roaming, with lag, with certain builds or people, but WvW is the reason I play GW2. It gives me the freedom to do what ever feels most entertaining to me at any specific moment without ever feeling punished for it (unless I cared about loot, which I don’t).

Malyck, because he was awesome and mysterious. But I guess there was a chance for that in HoT, I guess there is no hope for that anymore. Also, I would be really, really happy to see characters from “Ghosts of Ascalon” coming into storyline like Ember, Gullik and Dougal. I’m just wondering why haven’t this happened before. I’d like to see Dagonet, who was a Fristborn stanging in DR in the past, to get some light in some missions, we do not know much about him. And the two unknown Firstborn could finally come out. And Sayeh, the largos! I liked her a lot and I’m interested in that race.

babazhook.6805:

There nothing wrong with a given class excelling in a certain area such as roaming and nothing wrong with that ability to roam being tied to superior mobility. This “bring them back down to everyone elses level” meme is just code speak to normalizing all classes so they play the same. It leads to sterile type gameplay.

Ok, well, they excel at roaming so well that less players are roaming on other classes, it gets even cheesier when they start to run in packs. There’s a reason the roaming scene has been dying off, why players feel the need to run in packs or zergs these days. roaming isn’t fun especially against thieves.

I’m running Scepter/Torch and staff as a condi PU in PvP. It works reasonably well.

Another QoL improvement for shield gens would be for them to be removed from the game or make them stationary seige on towers and keeps.

Too many times you see a map blob hiding under 4 of these things preventing any form of disable while building 6 super catas. They block every way to defend an objective short of stealth disabling from behind where you’re likely to die. Even then it doesn’t buy you much or any time at all.

Shield gens block cannon, AC, treb and ballista fire, they are too good when stacked.

You need shield gens to be able to assult heavily defended objective. Otherwise you get the old way which is treb from max range and cutoff all supply route until they finely run out 3 hrs later

Spoken like a true zergling.

Repeated attacks while draining their supply and controlling camps is how you topple keeps, which is how a siege actually works.

Zaraki.5784:

With WvW update, Anet removed Power of the Mists. Why didn’t they put some sort of compensations in PvE for that?

Compensation? They apparently thought that PotM was too strong a benefit for PvE and moved the equivalent rewards to WvW (via guild buffs applied to objectives, in which the GMO nodes are located). Accordingly, there’s nothing to compensate.

I don’t like losing the buff and I wish that ANet had increased the base chance for a bonus ‘whack’ at nodes, but I don’t think we’re entitled to it.

Zaraki.5784:

Because it was always existed before, hence it’s a loss now (that applies to WvW too obviously).

As was already stated, it’s a bonus from the actions of the WvW population. With its removal, buffs were added within WvW to compensate.

So a PvE only player get only a loss from it? I mean Zaraki is right on that, it was always existed before.
It’s like someone giving you X€/month since you were born just because your neighbourg is working hard, nobody ever complained about that. Then one day it suddenly stops, wouldn’t you complain for that? I’d surely do.

That would be entitlement.

I have never agreed with you more!

The basic sentiment that one would complain for not being rewarded for someone else’s work is mind blowing to me.

I think that the word, “entitled,” is tossed around entirely too much these days, but in this case…its almost an understatement.

Why not reward zerging much more , so most whinning stops ?:)

i would love to see the reward track and the Grandmaster Marks NOT tied to the crafting garbage….

Maybe the rewards track could give some item that after quite some u could trade it for a GM…

There is only one warrior race: Charr.
All of the others are just small humans, big humans, weird gray kids and walking salads swinging a sword and pretending to be a Charr.

Natto.5819:

If you want end game skins, and the new WvW Legendary is something you want, it becomes a fulltime job. Not saying I’m forced to do it against my will. But Anet set the bar high, and the tickets needed take a long time to farm.

I’ve been sober for a couple of months now, so I have more control over my in-game impulses. I’m just greedy and want more for less effort to get the skin.

It’s only a full time job, if you want the armor ASAP. Treat it like the long term goal it is supposed to be and it won’t feel like a full time job.

miguelsil.6324:

Its very stupid that you need crafting for this reason. Imo crafting something should make it cheaper because im the one making it, just like going out to dinner or making it myself at home. I can make the same dish just as good for much less Money spent on the ingredients. So a vendor in wvw could have another 100 tolens needed for all i care as long as it would nt MAKE me craft. So i dont want crafting i pay more money and its ok. The end

The idea that crafters would get a discount in honor of the time and resources spent leveling their crafting skill (s) makes sense to me. Not having crafted items either tradable, or earned in another, more expensive, fashion does not.

NO! Leave it alone. If you do not like it then go play another game. This is not supposed to be easy to get. If you want easy to get stuff go back to PvE!!!!!!!!!

Could you please explain how leveling up crafting demonstrates either skill in wvw or dedication to the game mode?

Makes even less sense because crafting is actually PvE.
