Guild Wars 2

Does Anet plan to do anything about Fractals being character bound? What I mean is, if someone is kicked for being d/c’d too long, and they’re the ones that started the run, everyone is kicked out, losing all our progress and ending the run all together.

I think that if someone d/c from the game, and they’re the instance owner, it should be moved to another character, with a message that tells the group who’s the current leader. Or if someone is kicked or leaves, it should also just change ownership.

I’m not sure how technically possible it is (I assume it can be done, but I guess it depends on how Anet built their game), but it would be a lot less frustrating.

Its another “I want the reward for little to no effort” request.

Shoot, someone give me a few pre cursors for just showing up will ya?

The “Hall of Monuments” was designed to reward players that have played Guild Wars 1 for a very long time. The only possible way to gain those points is to buy GW1 and play it to get the points. If you do decide to do this, keep in mind it is going to take an extremely long amount of time to get 50 out of 50 HoM points.

No, there is no way you can simply “buy” access to the Hall of Monuments. That would be cheating GW1 players out of their achievement points and rewards.

Hey,

We could use more sources of ori than you are giving us because we are preparing to get our characters crafting levels to 500 and the next level will be the armor which will need even more. So stop being so stingy with it. Put it out more than mithril which we have too much of.

Silver League EU: definitely not UW.

Underworld is in the wrong league imo. They are getting rocked.

-Gold

the one that has the least lag

-Silver

the one that has the least lag

-Bronze

the one that has the most numbers

I don’t really see how this would split zergs…
And to make it so only the player/group that did the most damages gets loot looks unfair to me.
In bus, I’m specialized in control – That is I make almost no damages, but I stop the ennemy from moving for long enough to allow the DPS of the guild to bring it down.
In roaming, I go alterations – that is my dots are not yet all in that the ennemy is down, when I have a war in the party.
Such a thing would only encourage zerging with wars – as if the current meta wasn’t already making wars “the” class to have…

wait 1.5h in lionarch to be sure to be in the good district , reset hop 1/2 sec all map full + network error = wait 3-4h in LA to proc sure , this very funny friday fun
one word to this kitten

How about a windows system alert so the GW2 window flashes when que pops, so I can do something else while waiting?

Hello there. I think it will be very handy if you applied a sound effect when wvw queue pops. The wait time is very long some days and some people go afk or something and loose it when it pops. A sound would be very handy to catch up with it, so you can use the sound in background and get back in time

Hi everyone,

so I just got the Legendary Collector achievement yesterday and while it feels great that I’ve achieved my personal goal in-game, it really feels underwhelming to see that 25AP reward. I mean, it took me more than a year to complete but you can easily get 25 AP in 1-2 days just by doing dailies. Do you think it deserves more reward for completing it? Like, making the achievement into a title “Legendary Collector” or add more achievement points?

Cheers ^^

iirc, in Guild Wars 1 the costumes were $10, with no option to buy using ingame money.

Of course they weren’t quite the same, you could use them in combat, one purchase was good for any number of alts to wear simultaneously, there was a storage system (an NPC who held all of them for you. You ask him for one and get it. Wear it till you tired of it then destroyed it. Rinse and repeat). So the Guild Wars 2 town clothes are less value for their money which is why I haven’t even bought one and probably never will.

Why can’t these costumes be 400 each? 500 maybe? 700 is too much, especially with the current 1 gold -> 15 gems rate going on, 100 gold will get you more or less 1500 gems, barely enough for 2 of the costumes..

I thought 1 gold for 30 gems was fine back at around the flame & frost update, now it’s just silly, and yes, I know, I know, I could, in theory, buy each costumes.. For almost 10 euros each, yeah, no.

As of right now, each of these costumes essentially costs you 42 gold and 50 silvers each , you used to be able to grab the infinite molten pick at a cost of 800 gems for 27 gold , and the pick actually has an use.

Either the price of the costumes (especially costumes, I mean come on, they are not even combat armor) has to be brought down to 400 gems, or the current silly gold to gem rate has to change somehow (please don’t be that person who state the gem to gold / gold to gem ratio is automated depending on the amount exchanged).

Desolation (Which I hosted for) was one of the 11 servers that were running Pink Day in LA cancer charity events: http://pinkday.gamergivingback.com/

Everyone who wanted to participate in the in-game events had to wear pink so it’s not surprising that the prices went up a bit. But we raised over 9000 dollars so far from the events so

“you lose out” isn’t acceptable. Its a design flaw.

yeah….

WvW reward should be based solely on completing the achievement meta….

that way it would be fair to everyone participating…..

As some will know, I hate JP’s with a passion, never been a fan of platform games and now I’m old these are completely no fun at all.

Anyway, started doing the EB puzzle (it’s morning, not taking up any queue space), before long met a few others, we squad up. Along the way, we pass several AM players who we either let go past or they let us go past- we’re all just there to get the JP done and get out. Finally complete it with much help from a mesmer.

Move to Deso BL. Guess what- two thief gankers sitting there just inside who attack you just after the first jump, followed in by two more griefers who managed to kill me as I was on low HP and cooldowns after the thief battle.

I still fail to see what possible enjoyment there is in double (or more) teaming against people who would rather be anywhere else then in a stupid JP in the first place- at least have the balls to go solo, not have someone to hold your hand. Is your real life really that sad?

EDIT: move to AM BL, meet people from AM, wave at each other, carry on.

Still couldn’t complete it, my co ordination keeps failing me – JP’s are not something I’ll ever be good at.

Gave up on the JP completion for wvw achievements, now have no choice other than to kill 6 million dolyaks (why are 250 dolyaks or whatever equivalent to ONE JP that takes experts 3 minutes to do..).

Please remove this kitten from wvw achievements next time- or better yet, don’t repeat achievements at all in season 2.

Because nobody like films of themselves stepping into poo.

oooops wait… we cannot.

Dear Anet,

Please allow us to reset our WvWvW ability points on the fly.
If we are able to specc for different builds, why force us to spent ability points without the freedom to change these on the fly?

e.g: If i feel like playing a tower defense game, i don’t need to be specced for Ram Mastery, i would like to be able to reset my points and respec into Cannon Mastery.

e.g: If i want to roam with friends & cap supply camps, I do not need to be specced for Build Master, i would like to be able to respec to Guard Killer.

Furthermore, if you are new to WvWvW, i can imagine players speccing in random Mastery traits without knowing you cannot undo the points you spend.

Would be great to see this implemented.

We all know the tactical difference of the 3 colors in EB in Defending/Recapping with Trebs.

Green can very nice reach the own area of towers with save trebs in the keep.
Red can reach the own area too, without save treb to mendons, but reach Stonemist aswell.
Blue can only hit 2 Towers and not SM aswell from the Keep.

Lucky Servers:
SFR, Abaddon and Dzagonur playing all seven matchups green
Kodash, Underworld and Vabbi playing 6 time red, one green.
Riverside, Aurora and Blacktide playing 5 time green, one red, only one blue.

Unlucky:
Elona, Gunners and R.o.Surmia playing 6 week on poor blue and one week red.

Its complete unfair that servers play most time the good colors in difference of other servers who play most time on the tactical worst color.
It would be fair if all servers have two matchups on each color and the 3rd of random.

So please reconsider the following matchups for the season.
And whats the opinion of the rest of the community?

Kind regards

My husband and I want to play WvW but we are mostly playing netflix, altho thier selection and bad search engine is a pain. Why do they have so few movies? We used to rent anything from them, now it is a mess.

If GW2 is sold out to the point we can’t play, we need an alternative. Just wondered if anyone knew of a good similar game.

the threshold is a bit high in my opinion

Actually, I have been getting credit for the achievement without being on any siege. You just have to do enough damage to the door to get credit.

When will ascended gear be removed from WvW? Because WvW really doesn’t need further imbalance. Give the real fans their game back, and let the people who enjoy brainless grinding go elsewhere. Thanks.

Getting PvErs into WvW is frustrating in the short term, but it’s better for WvW in the long term.

If you train them to WvW properly instead of blowing them off, some will learn, might get hooked and improve your server coverage.

Play the long game, everyone will be better off.

Zylonite.5913:

The skill lag in WvW is not Anet’s fault. It is a core latency problem in distributed system and latency between network nodes and the client/server side.

Of course its their fault through a combination of:

- lack of sufficient hardware,
- failure to properly cap the maps at a level the servers can support,
- a combat engine that is clearly not optimised, and
- development that clearly does not take the hardware limitations into account.

You’ll want to min/max all important stats far more than just go with all zerker (hp/damage/armor).

Full zerk is never ideal. All zerk in WvW = rallybot (you die super fast, rally downed opponents). Don’t be that guy. You want enough armor/hp to survive, then the rest into damage. That balance point is very personal (build/role/playstyle/skill dependant).

There are a lot of theories/math behind why you would want a certain type of armor in a certain slot. Things like your shoulders/gloves/boots don’t help as much with knights stats as they do with berzerker (usually). But that’s probably a bit advanced for you for now.
