2 feature packs and 1/2 season, not enough

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

After seeing what we can expect from feature packs, and 1/2 a season of LS2, Its just not enough to make people come back, or keep people playing at the level where they feel invested enough to to spend money on gems.

LS2 is better than before and more interesting, but its not enough to keep many people invested.
The feature packs, so far as i have seen, do not have the type of features that would engage many people.

From my personal perspective, LS2 almost makes me want to play again, but then i just read the spoilers and figure ehh, good enough. After all, i did the first one, and while somewhat interesting after i completed it, there was nothing else in game i wanted to do. A day later or so i did the acheivs, which were kind of bleh in terms of challenge, and super ehhh in terms of rewards. Essentially LS2 is the best aspect of the current system, and its not enough to keep many players engaged.

If this is essentially the blueprint of the future of GW2, ehhhhh

God forbid we have a somewhat challenging encounter. You can group and faceroll it if it’s so kitten hard, but dont ask’em to make it easier like the rest of the game where you can stand anywhere pressing 1
I hope Anet makes some more like this.

If Legend of Zelda came out tomorrow, the usual
forum dwellers would go nuts about the need to
“grind” to get exp, new swords, new potions etc

I like the process, mainly because it feels like a prototype of precursor crafting.

I agree! Please Anet, use this kind of system for crafting precursors!

Mawdrey needs the nomad stats added to the drop down choices. If you’ve already got an ascended back peace, Mawdrey, as cute as she is, seems superfluous. Adding the choice of Nomad stats to her, would make her worth grinding for just to have that uniqueness in your collection. Otherwise, she’s just a skin and a massive gold sink. It also, wouldn’t hurt if the she occasionally shouted out with an audio clip “FEED ME!” Just because.

While your love for the game is admirable, it’s not like you HAVE to get it. Don’t want it? do something else.

I don’t understand why people throw out this defense. It makes no sense. If you put it in perspective, everything in the game is optional. Playing video games is optional. “So if you don’t like something in a game, don’t play it.” Well, duh.

The point is that within the context of the game, the back piece feels like an excessive grind/cost compared to other items that this guy has acquired. And he is voicing that opinion.

Feedback exists because things can be improved.

Or words to that effect.

Give us a prestigeous PVE armor too

After reading the news about the new exclusive PVP armors, I cannot stop myself from wishing for a similar PVE counterpart. As it is now, the only prestige armor set in game, will be available for the 10-20 people that happen to win elite tournaments….

While I agree that top PVP players should get a special reward for their effords, I strongly believe that there should be a correspondant set for the people that prefer PVE.

I wish Anet would introduce an equally prestegius armor set, that could be craftable through PVE rewards and activities. I wouldn’t even mind paying 100 pristine relics per piece.

Before people start complaining that everything in PVE is easy so nothing will ever be prestigious: we have been lacking any kind of hard to obtain armor set, so now is the time to give us one of those. I am sure plenty of people will enjoy working towards one of those.

Max your kills per hour and get your account MF up, shoot for 200% at least. Find places with reasonably high density of mobs that drop the mat that you want and find a build/strategy that gets you 400+ kills/hour. Depending on the mob and area this might be a zerk build that kills one at a time or it might be a condi necro with epidemic in which you pull 3-8 enemies at a time and then kill all at once. The big factor is how far apart the enemies are and how much time is spent running between kills. You’ll be looking at about 20 t6 and nearly 100 t5 /hour on average if you achieve the high kill/hour rate. I also never set out to farm venoms, dust and totems specifically, as these tend to be cheaper than the other t6. Better for farm 3 bloods and sell to buy 5 venoms.

The dungeon —> buy t6 advice is getting to be worse due to the price rise because everyone thinks that these things can’t be farmed and is chasing the mats with gold instead of farming them.

"Blink" should never be "Out of Range"

We’ve suggested this sort of thing since day 1. It was a good idea then. It’s a good idea now.

It’d also be nice if you can’t actually get to a location because the pathing won’t let you, that instead of not really going anywhere, the game detects it beforehand and just doesn’t let you use the skill, or similar… Because nothing is worse than using Blink or a similar skill, to get to somewhere that’s basically on flatish perfectly passable ground from where you are, only to stay in place and burn the cooldown on the skill. This has been suggested for a good long while, too…

(This applies to all skills like Blink, I couldn’t fit more in the title, and Blink was the most recognizable name and often refers to the mechanic as a whole)

For a skill that instantly move a player to another location, there is a simple Quality of Life change that would make the abilities far easier and more fun to use, while avoiding unnecessary frustration.

There are two fairly simple solutions.

The first, which is less appealing, is to have the ability teleport the user as close as possible to where they click, within range. So clicking 1000m in front of you, would instead teleport you 900m in front of you.

The second, and far better idea, is to have the targeting circle simply unable to move out of the range. If the cursor is out of the abilities range, instead of turning red, it stops moving further away and instead simply stays and close as possible within the range circle. Secondarily, there could also be a thin white circle showing the range while aiming.

These would make such abilities faster, easier to use, and avoid the frustration of having an “OUT OF RANGE” prompt be the reason you wiped on a boss and need to run back for half an hour.

I don’t see anything wrong with current prices. It’s at equilibrium price – a price that both sellers and buyers are willing to meet at.

I understand your vendor suggestion, but at what point are we going to put our foot down and not bring everything to vendors? Why not lodestones? Why not T6 mats? Why don’t we just put everything that’s on the TP and put it on a vendor?

Because gold sinks.

1.) Precursors are not too high. They are based on market forces.
2.) The increase of 600g is directly as a result of the wardrobe change. The price is not because of inflation but because of a sustained spike in demand
3.) Newcomers shouldn’t be concerned about getting a precursor or a legendary to begin with, at least not right away. Sure, make it your goal, but it’s a long-term one.
4.) You really should have posted in the dozen or so threads on the same topic.

But play how you want isn’t limited to solo content. The problem is there are people who wish to play how they want and they want to run dungeons as fast as possible…and that’s okay.

There are plenty of people who will group with you if you’re not zerker. Easy enough to advertise your own group or join a casual guild. I run dungeons with support people in my party sometimes, no big deal.

But I’m not really sure about the total point of your post beyond expressing of frustration. You can already play the open world any way you want. It’s just the instances when you have to deal with other people that it becomes an issue.

What?! I think these are some of the best skins they’ve released to date. I agree they’re relatively simplistic, but the glow is wonderful. The torch has a white flame and the lighting around your feet is also white instead of the classic orange, it’s awesome. To each their own, though.
