Guild Wars 2

GW1 = no jump.

GW2 = Jump.

A 5% increase to every single piece of armor, weapon, and trinket available gives player wearing full Ascended Berserker gear 13% more damage than someone who has Exotic Berserker gear.

Please, stop pretending that the difference in stats isn’t significant.

You’re welcome to believe that differences in skill will help make up for that gap. And I’ll agree with you to some extent, because it’s a fair point. I’ll even go so far as to say that you don’t have to be decked in full Exotic gear, much less full Ascended, at this point in the game. Again, fair point.

But let’s stop fabricating this fantasy that there isn’t a statistically significant difference between full Ascended gear and full Exotic gear. Because there is. It’s an undeniable mathematical fact.

Remember when Subject Alpha was twice as hard and gave you 1/3 as many tokens? :P

Remember when ~1 gold can get you ~300 gems?

The fun starts when you start labeling things as “Un-Suspicious”

That one still puzzles me.

I will develop your idea into something more elaborate called:
Surprise Activity

They can add these “suspicious bushes” in all zones all over the places and when you click them, some surprise will pop up:

- 1 to 5 foes will jump from it in a random generated number
- 1 chest will pop up with different goods in it
- you will get teleported to another place in the same zone doe to some asura malfunctioning device hidden in that bush
- you will get poisoned, wounded, etc for a few seconds
- you will get different crafting materials

he more varied surprises will be added to these bushes, the more people will trigger them while exploring. These would be GW2’s “treasure chests” spread around the world and not just in some specific caves/clifs

+1 for bringing up this

Lol. If they did that I would be triggering every bush I came across.

There´s actually a reason, why these bushes are suspicious. It´s because they´re the only bushes in the game.
Please, just put some more bushes into the game, if only for logic´s or aesthetic´s sake.
Maybe as a gathering source? Or purely for the looks.

Simple. RNG. You got lucky the one day and then didn’t get lucky afterwards.

I saw a charr named Taylor Swiftclaw…

Items that will cost 250 ectos or more gem store items, whatever they can come up to monetize.

Like the Asura would EVER let their krewe unionize. Silly bookah.

There’s this one bug i’ve seen floating around the studios that seems to render the Devs incapable of getting on and replying to some of the issues for weeks on end. I would love to see this bug fixed.

Only if it comes with a /bonjour emote.

What if this is still beta, and the real polished game comes out next year?

Im going with C lol

report em for exploiting, get a better PUG. Sorted

Its just a tooltip bug. We are receiving 25% but the tooltip says 10%.

Developers never played this class and they are to busy jerking each other off on their thieves and mesmers.

LOL

Poof! Someone called and I am here. We made some ranger changes this patch, but had to go back on them because of risk factor. There are some bugs being fixed and quality of life improvements coming in the next patch, as well as some other significant ranger improvements. I would Literally tell you but I think it would be considered a bit of a spoiler so you will have to be patient.

While we work hard to keep updates going on all professions, not very build us going to contain fixes for everyone due to the nature of software development. One problem with rangers is the lack of build diversity created by a number of sub par utility skills. Many signets, a shout or two, and spirits are all a bit lackluster. That is the first place to expect improvements. Second is trying to improve the feel/ pacing on some weapons.

Ok I can’t type more with tiny phone finger keypad. See you in game!

Do tell how the wording in this representative’s message does anything BUT raise expectations.

Mark Katzbach.9084:

Hey all, we are aware of the bug with Ranger traps. A fix is slated for to take care of this bug tonight.

Bugfix patch:

• Rangers are now no longer available in class selection menu

Sure you have the time to “test” it?

Unspecified.9142:

Oh goody! Our only good utility skills got nerfed!

Well at least all our utility skills are ‘balanced’ now… they all suck equally! Hooray!

No. Survival skills are still useable.

Next patch, QZ now gives 4s swiftness instead of quickness, muddy terrain gives all enemies might, and lightning reflexes now stuns you as you go into a fetal position and cry pathetically while your pet runs around aimlessly in circles.

Dev 1: “Players are using the short bow 1 ability with no cool-down non-stop, what should we do about it?”

Dev 2: “We could add a cooldown!”
Dev 3: “We could make the other abilities more useful!”

Dev 1: “Nah, lets just increase the cast time on skill 1 without altering the other short bow abilities.”
Dev 3: “How does make them hit 1 less?”

Dev 1: “We’ll figure that part out later, just add the cast time for now.”
