More Ways to get Dragonite in WvW please

Try being a dungeon runner. I’m drowning in Bloodstone and Ephemeral mats, but never, ever see dragonite :-(

I try to get by on a bit from LS and the occasional world boss, enough to make an ascended weapon every few months….armor? Forget it :P

You should try the Lost Bandit Chests in the Silverwastes. Each chest has either Dragonite Ore (10-20) or Empyreal Fragments (7-13). Putting in an hour or 2 in that zone will get you plenty of crests to exchange for bandit keys.

Go to your Hero panel. On the first tab, there are a number of selections. Pick “wardrobe.”

From there, you select the piece of armor/weapon and on your left are all of your appearance options. Find the one you like and click “apply changes” on the left. Assuming you have sufficient transmutation charges (they aren’t hard to get), you are now done.

Thankfully, ANet has stuck with their plan to make it so you never have to choose between appearance and functionality.

I recommend doing at least the most recent LS chapter. You’ll be lost story-wise (and pretty much see some massive spoilers), but you’ll have an idea of what the big announcement this weekend is going to be about.

Disappointed in Achievement Chest

The 6000 AP chest ‘should’ have come with a shoulder armour skin. If you didn’t get that then you need to log a support ticket because something went wrong.

As I see it, more folks will leave WvW with these ideas that punish then simply for not being on your server, and that seems pretty constructive to me.

I have stated my suggestions on the previous 5,286 threads with identical or similar topics. Your welcome to read it on one of those. It seems a bit unreasonable to me for every other person to make their own thread on the same topic, and then demand other repost what has already been discussed. It would likely be easier for everyone if you simply used one of the existing threads.

One suggestion though, is that you recruit over the idea of nerfing an entire server to suit your needs. It seems unreasonable to me that posters demand another server, as a whole get nerfed by the ones complaining they need more players, but they do not take the time to make a recruitment thread instead.

It seems more constructive to me, for players who feel they need more partners to play with on their server, to seek them out, and recruit others, rather then to post with an expectation that Anet handicaps a server that is doing better then them in a match up.

Lightning whip nerf really sucks.

They didn’t nerf it. They buffed it and fixed a exploit at the same time.

They reduce the cast time by 17% and decreased the dmg by 10%. Overall its a buff. And they needed to fix the LW exploit obviously.

I very much appreciate all the little Dev notes. Thank you for those, it’s nice to see a little insight into the reasoning why things were changed even if I don’t agree with everything. HUGE improvement on how it’s been done where they just give us the change with no explanation. <3

I’m just curious, would you have been ok if the video had played minus the little PAX advert screen at the end? I assume so, at which point I do understand what you’re saying. But a lot of people won’t know about this and it’s a hugely effective way to get the news out to all players that something big is coming. I agree that it’s a little immersion breaking, but I guess it was the best way for them to do it.

This. There are players that don’t use social media or simply don’t know where to find the information for announcements like this. Considering this method is a medium to contact ALL of their players (who keep up with the story) about a huge announcement, it’s sure to reach the most relevant audience.

[Suggestion] Updating Colors for Accessories

In many post I have seen and I have proposed the same color hair accessory can be changed in your menu hero to combine it with your armor.

If they did that would be great, and I would add that the objects could also be dyed back all those that could, for on equally a part of the visible armor.

Don't Release Updates in Prime Time

We don’t announce release times in advance, but historically it’s true that most have happened in the morning (Pacific time). The reasoning behind that is to allow the maximum number of developers (programmers, server team, network team, designers, etc.) to be available to monitor any situations that may arise. As you noted, a short-term issue did arise today, and because of the timeframe of the release, we had all hands on deck to correct the problem quite quickly.

And, as others pointed out, releasing on “off hours” in North America makes it “primetime” somewhere else.

You can buy the digital download and send them the unused serial number you receive. Just make sure you don’t register it and make an account, let them do that. Then all they have to do is register and download the game.

actually capturing a supply camp while a nearby ally is being killed is an excellent idea, because it will prevent the supply camp from being taken by the enemy for 5 minutes.

only a WvW player would know this and willingly risk death to keep an enemy distracted, or willingly ignore easy kills because capturing an objective is more important.

Don’t worry, they should starve to death soon, given that we stole the tree and ornaments they were going to sell for food. Besides, I thought one of the devs said they were going to burn or something.

I like it. Now I’ve mastered Frosty the Snowman during that break. Gives me time to unwind between the songs. Maybe rush to the bathroom or grab a drink. I think that’s the purpose of the break. You know . . . to take a break.

But, these days, most people get their daily and get out. Sorry if you happened to zone in when the break happens.

It may be an inconvenience to you, in your haste to get it done and over with, but it’s not a waste of time for those staying to do more than just dailies.

Just something to consider.

Will the archived subforums be removed?

A have an alternative that we are considering.

A little background first. We are only looking at making this change to tidy up the front page of the forum, not hide all old posts. While the archived forums are in their own ‘Archive’ category, they still take up a significant amount of space, and we’re looking to give the front page a cleaner look.

So, let me know what you all think of this alternative plan:
Instead of making the archived subforums unavailable to read, we can ‘unpublish’ the subforums from the front page. These subforums would still be accessible (read-only) via a direct link to the page, but would not show up as links in the forum index.

sorry, absolutely not – the last thing I want in this game are rng cash shop items, they’re the bane of modern day (f2p) mmos. There are a lot of good ways to solve any precursor issue there may be, but this isn’t one of them. Plus that wouldn’t be any more “fair” or less random than the mystic toilet.

How Does Reporting Work?

I see two concerns: The player who cleared the area and the offensive language. The first isn’t as big a deal as it might appear, or as it might be in other games. This is because the Level 80 is “down-leveled” to a level appropriate for the area. So s/he isn’t operating at true Level 80 powerfulness.

The second issue is language, and it sounds like here, your reports were exactly right. We have team members watching reports 24/7/365. I’ve seen people disappear from the game in a matter of minutes due to a report, because the agents read the report, read the chat strings (that are sent to them with the report automatically) and they can take action very quickly. That’s not to promise that every report will be answered in minutes, and it’s not a statement that if a report is not acted upon in minutes it won’t be acted upon at all. But overall, things can move very quickly if you make an in-game report.

I’m sorry you had this experience, and hope all your future gaming sessions are great!

WvW: Sneak Attack Feature

in WvW

Posted by: testpig.5018

testpig.5018

sneak attack is not PvD at all.

It’s take an objective deep in the enemy zone, and use it as a offensive structure against enemy players and enemy structures.

If you are out patrolling the the BLs, you will find the fight, instead of waiting for white swords to appear to have a fight handed to you.

The mindset of zerg infested servers have polluted tactical combat in guild wars. Sneak attack is fantastic in promoting healthy fights.

Hey everyone. We just finished the second Guild Wars 2 tribute project using Bulk Dominoes. It has much more of an emphasis on World vs. World this time. Took a lot time to finish it. Oh, and my son insisted that we have Twilight in this video since we had Sunrise in the last one. Hope you all enjoy it!

A comprehensive list of thoughts for WvW

in WvW

Posted by: coglin.1867

coglin.1867

I feel kinda bad because you obviously spent a lot of time putting together your thoughts on this, but no one has responded.

For me personally this kind of imagineering is cool and all, but without more communication from ANet there’s no reason to believe there’s any reason to talk about this stuff.

Why should they respond? they have commented on all of this stuff. They have made massive CDI discussion, blog post, and participated in many many threads on this matter already. They do not need to reaffirm their position on the daily threads of this matter.

Why is it, that every time a post pops up of this nature (pretty much once a day) do folks disingenuously post as if every time the do not respond to the new one, that they ignored the topic?

In my opinion, most of those ideas are horrible. Garrison nearly invulnerable, what a terrible idea, then no one will try to take it, and we lose the great massive 3 way fights there

Garbage EoTM maps forced in to WvW, just no

Starting with absolutely nothing on any borderland other then yours? then why would anyone leave their own BL? This idea completely promotes an absolute lack of fights. Funnels everyone to EB.

Personally I feel the Op does not understand WvW in the least, based on how the suggestions seem so unreasonably unrealistic. Every suggestion promotes locking down in each of the servers own borderlands. No one ever going there to fight, and the only place that will matter is EB. WvW will have dead borderlands on full servers, and everyone will be in queue for EB. This list near destroys the fun of the game mode as a whole.

I apologize OP, I am not trying to be mean to you, but I feel these suggestions are so bad, and so harmful to WvW, that I would express my emotions on them as aggressively as they came to me. You offer no explanation as to how each suggestion would help in your eyes. That does not help your points at all.

I’d also like to add, given the increased difficult this would obviously have on attackers, to increase rewards for taking something over.

I play for the fun, with my friends and guild, not for rewards. I much prefer my reward to be fun fights rather then minimize the fights to be a rarity just so I can get more loot on the rare fights we do see.

If players overhype anything then it’s the players’ fault, not ANet’s. No company should be held responsible for the level of stupidity that comes from the actions of a few players who cannot tell the difference between rumours/speculation and hard facts.
