How about a Charr mount for my Asura.

I proposed that some time back in the german forum when we were talking about backpacks. Charr get an asura-backpack and Asura a Charr-mount. Everyone benefits (well beside a few bookah).

That seems wrong to me for some reason. XD
Well Charr could ride a cow. Asura could ride some kind of golem(which they do already) only cuter. Humans could ride horses. Sylvari could ride sylvari hounds. Norns could ride…kegs. :I

If you want mounts, there’s a great big huge one near [Maelstrom’s Waypoint] :p

No, no, and no. If you want to support just buy gems with legit money on a monthly basis.

Three problems:

1. ArenaNet already puts a lot of constant work into GW2. It just isn’t the stuff that you listed (despite the fact that we want that stuff.) So the theory that they are doing less for the game because they can’t afford it is kinda moot.

2. The game makes a ton of money from the cash shop, probably more than it would make if it was a sub based game.

3. GW1 had no sub-fees and very little as far as microtransactions until AFTER GW2 was planned. Up until that point it received 4 new classes, loads of new features, hundreds of new skills and 2 completely new world maps plus a very large expansion to Tyria’s map.

I will leave the game if they give special things to subscribers.

If you want to support the developers on a monthly basis, buy gems each month. There. You’re supporting the developers. No need to add in a subscription service.

The gem store IS your optional subscription. If you put in £8 as a 2month sub along your lines of thinking, then then support is achieved. They will not ever add in any kind of sub to this game, since that is the core reason so many people began playing GW in the first place. ANd optional is pointless given the cash shop

The gem store is your place to support the company financially

Or you just buy stuff from the gem store.

I like your name on your weapon stats if you crafted it. You had that at a bunch of other games too.

New emotes are always welcome too.

Weapon Hue Changer

I think there is a very big problem with this, and that is the possibility of making complete clown overlords become a reality in guild wars. but overall great idea I’d enjoy a glowing silver Bonetti’s Rapier

custom dungeon

I don’t like the custom dungeon complex idea because, there will be a ton of curation required, and we won’t know if custom dungeons are balanced or fair at all.

The Chest

idea is impractical, and would litter maps with random dedicated chests, if you want to know lock chest cluttering maps and ruining gaming expeirences look towards minecraft. Mail Box system works fine as is, and distributing items should be easier with guild banks.

Armor/weapon names

Armor and Weapon names, this is an easy avenue for trolls to abuse the naming system as is. But Anet seriously needs to improve their armor naming system.

Drama Guide

Aww that would be a sweet addition to the game

Here’s a list of things/ideas that I think would make the game more fun for most players. For the most part, they seem pretty easy to implement!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[Drama Guide/Tome]
For 600 gems, you can learn using 6 completely new emotes:
- Hug (characters need to stand close to eachother)
- Poke (character pokes another player with a stick; or with finger in the forehead)
- Ashamed (character sits ‘in the corner’ like on time-out)
- Charge (character raises its weapon in the air)
- Kiss (character sends a friendly kiss)
- Proud (character proudly presents its armour while smiling)

Hug only requires the user to have it bought.
GW1 emotes would be more than welcome as well. <3
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-
[Weapon Name Contract/Weapon Branding]
For 100 gems, it allows you to re-name any weapon crafted by you except for legendaries.
Or for 800 weapons teaches you to leave an ‘autograph’ on any weapon you ever craft.
(Name dissappears upon selling the weapon on trading post; it’s okay to send it by mail)

[Armour Name Contract/Armour Branding]
Same as above, only 50 gems cheaper. (Total of 300 gems for the entire set)

I like this idea mostly because it allows you to send gifts to your friend, that could actually mean something. Nowadays exotic weapons don’t have nearly as much worth as they used to. =)
—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————-
[Weapon Hue Changer/More Original Name]
These would work slightly like dyes that would slightly alter the hue of the chosen weapon. The could cost 100-200 gems per dye. Or maybe the Laurel Merchant would sell those as well. I just think it would be another step in making the character customization more fun. =)

We already have the refractors in the game, so this is totally possible.
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Custom Chest Thingy/More Original Name]
This would allow you to put up to 5 items inside a chest in your inventory. You would then be able to spawn the chest wherever you like for up to 1 hour. This would make guild events etc. easier to make/host. For example – putting the chest on the end of some jumping puzzle.
Not sure how useful it is considering mailbox is an option, but who knows. =)
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
[Custom Dungeon Thingy/More Original Name]
Now this idea is much more complex than the other ones, that’s why it’s last. We already have mechanic that allows the players to set up turrets etc.
Creating a custom dungeon should be possible. I’m not sure if it fits in the game lore-wise at all, but I imagine some contests would profit a lot from it. Not to mention that you could make your very own – newbie training grounds, as well as challenge your friends to beat your dungeon.
This could cost around 800-1600 gems a ‘pack’. I think some kind of custom portal would be needed as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hope you like these. =)

I’m sorry what. Why should people be able to just pay to unlock waypoints instead of actually playing the game. Next thing you know people will be asking to pay gold to insta-level characters to 80 because ‘who wants to have to level multiple characters to 80 and have to spend hours playing all of that content’….

Earning the 10 points required for the Fiery Dragon Sword is going to require you to play a substantial amount of GW1. I strongly advise you use the free trial first and figure out if the game is something you’re actually interested in playing, because if you don’t like it then you’re not going to enjoy playing through it to get the sword – and if you don’t enjoy it then the monetary investment for that one sword isn’t really worth it.

So yeah, definitely try the trial first. As others have pointed out you need to purchase at least one campaign (Prophecies, Factions, or Nightfall) and the expansion, Eye of the North. Nightfall tends to be the fastest/easiest GW game to solo if you’re just looking to buy one.

From what anet has said before, there are going to be no more tiers after ascended other than legendary. And what we have seen, the benefit if legendary is the qol with swappable stats. That’s it.

No power creep. No bonus DMG. None of that.

How about we remove blues, greens, and yellows instead?

Absolutely not.

You want gear treadmill there are plenty of other MMO’s that offer that.

Guild Wars has made one of its premises being that it was relatively easy to get max stat gear, it was rare skins that was to be the challenge. This makes PVP a more even playing field

Anet already did its appeasement of the World of Warcraft gear hamsterwheel crowd with ascended. That was ENOUGH of a betrayal of the MMO manifesto. We don’t need that to be a regular thing, most people don’t have full ascended gear especially not across all characters.

The treadmil is there with ascended your right but how many sets do you use on your main? I have a Rabid ascended Zerk Sinsiter and soldiers and (rampagers trew it a way and replaced it with sinsiters) . With my idea i can use my hard worked Ascended and fuse them with my exotics to be hald way legendary with 5 stat max to a armor so the gear treadmil that there would be is that one nededs to make a few exotic sets to fuse with their hard earnt ascended set.

I use 2 sets. That’s it.

WIth your “idea” you can march right the “kitten” off to World of Warcraft and never come back.

nassaya.7109:

Could not think of another title and allot of people would think the worse when they wil hear ‘’look new rarity your ascended became obsolete’‘. But the idea i’m about to share sounds alright in my head. And maybe we could discuss how to make it work to.

It’s called Mystic early on the wiki when you looked at rarity mystic was on that list with the color red. How does my version work.

It’s a mix of ascended and legandary, the wel know thing about legendary weapons is that one can choose their own stats all stats are represented i think. I do not own a legendary so correct me if i’m wrong. My idea with mystic is that for example 1 piece of light armor can have (max) 5 diffenent stat combo’s. and does 185% damage so it’s power creep. We can say well we don’t increase damage but that open for debate.

To not make ascended obsolete a person needs a piece of it to upgrade light stays light and medium and heavy stay what they are. If you have for example a ascended Zerk stat heavy armor piece one can upgrade it with Rabid stats for example the moment you do that it becomes Mystic and the armor turns from pink to red thus being Mystic.

To do this you need 1 piece of ascended armor (Zerk) with a rune (Krait) what one you want to have on the selection options. Plus a piece of exotic armor (Rabid) with a rune (Undead). A Superior Vision Crystal ( Needs 10 Bricks, Fragments and Ingot plus a Augur stone) plus a 4th item to upgrade. When your done with this step you can choose from a Zerk and a Rabid stat out of combat and a krait rune or a undead rune.

Just wanted to share this idea to get out of my head if people like or not that a matter of opinion. ^^ This way or similar variation i’m willing to work on to get my BIS equipment. I’m not a big altoholic got 5 chars and 3 with many ascended stuff but my main uses 4 differant sets of armor and 1 of that is ascended so this way i can get some QoL options.

Cheers

The damage is already done i do understand with the introduction of ascended we got a bit of power creep. My idea does not break the current balance it just adds QoL to someones invent. The fist one is my current invent the second after they add my idea ^^ A person has multible exotic armors and trickets for ones build. atleast i have on a few chars. And it makes ascended more wanted with the new upgrade to it.

It does break the current balance!!!!

Let’s say exotic weapon does 100 damage.

Ascended/Legendary (they are the same stat wise) version of the weapon does 110 damage.

“Mystic” would do 203-204 damage (185% of 110 is 203.5, and I don’t know how the game rounds).

So Mystic would do about DOUBLE the damage of Exotic. End game is supposed to be doable by people with RARES or EXOTICS. Your tier would trivialize end game content! Because ANet would not be able to balance out the enemies to take the increased damage!

No. They add in a tier above Ascended and I will leave the game. Permanently. No questions asked. No gear treadmill. Especially one that trivializes content and makes other tiers obsolete.

just no, i already think the whole “higher armor tier is better armor” crap is completely non-sense, i really don’t want yet another tier that screams generic MMO.

i rather have basic armor (white) as the basic of max armor but have higher tiers have better bonuses, like normal armor can have 2 bonuses but a masterwork can have 3 bonuses.
i also like to see less tiers. (for both armor AND weapons)
-normal
-masterwork
-exotic
-legendary

Anet is so busy to patronizing players but they keep on adding more and more tiers, over-complicating the game more and more.

No please no.

This game isn’t supposed to be grindy. And don’t forget the uproar when ascended came out. Introducing another tier will literally make tons of people leave the game.

Instead of a new tier or even legendary armor, fix all the broken skills and balance stuff first!

Agreed with everyone else, adding new tiers (even with just a small increase in stats) would be a bad thing for the game over all.

One word: No.

We have enough people who do fine with Exotic and others who have Legendaries and Ascended gear. Some people haven’t finished the absurd requirements for Ascended.

The game should be balanced around Exotic. Giving additional tiers is going to force a balance pass away from that, or even more people will kewkew over “easy” because their performance (damage taken/dealt) will be roughly 15% higher over what’s reasonable attainable.

No power creep!

No more stat progression!

This. is. NOT. WoW! (or any of assorted other games)

Stop it!

Edit: I vote we fix the kitten we got first! More skills. More skins. More weapon options to existing classes. And last but not least, make conditions on par with power builds!

Randulf.7614:

For what purpose is this tier? We have too many as it is, I’m not sure I follow why another would be needed?

Seems it is a mixture of

and does 185% damage so it’s power creep. We can say well we don’t increase damage but that open for debate.

with legendary stat switching QoL. At a cheap cost.

So, basically, legendary armor, but with better stats and cheaper than legendary weapons to make.

No, i don’t think we’d need anything like that.

I dunno man. Its kinda unfair for the people that spended days discovering all wp’s.

Is this a troll post? 26-45 for 50 gold each map? Trololol xD

Kid, seriously? Use google. There’s bajillion threads or guides on internet to check how obtain HoM points possible fastest way.

You buy a GW1 account and get X amount of points to unlock it. I don’t know of another way.
