Guild Wars 2

Actually i look at the crossbow as the step between the bow and the gun. It would be a natural weapon to have in a game with both

This simply looks like a MM Necro from Guild Wars 1 sharing the same weapon ethos as the guild wars 2 necro

Crossbow,Halberd and Flail are at the top of my list . Other weapons to consider would be Scythe,Recurve Bow and Dory,

Again as far as rangers are concerned its about the class ethos .

As far as the sniper rifles i havent seen any . ive seen Balistae ,Cannons and Mortars, Siege weapons and a few charrzookas but no sniper rifles

Yes Knights did use crossbows but the Guardians primary function in the game is to get up close and personal so crossbows dont fit their ethos .

Yea . i joked about the /age thing when i played GW 1 do to how much i played it . I do wish it told you how much time you spent in a particular zone though

I agree with the OP. The article makes some good points that not a lot of people think about and yes I’ll concede that the "you have been playing for 24 hours please get a life " message is annoying its there for a reason . The in game clock may help a little but a reminder of how long you’ve been playing never hurts

This would have to be usable by Domination Mesmers only .

A toggle would be nice

What would be the point ( or fun ) in that? Dungeons are not and never should be made for solo play . They are made for groups of people with a common goal to kick some NPC butt. There is more than enough solo play already if that’s your preference .

Why wouldn’t a deer attack you with its antlers ? As for fire flies im pretty sure it would be dead if you smacked it with a greatsword or an axe to begin with so you cant really apply logic there which may be your problem to begin with . you cant really apply logic to an MMO where you can fire rockets from your crotch and shoot fire from your hands

the reason im saying Male and Female for GW 2 is because theve already broken daces down by race and not profession .

That would just be 10 dances, half the amount in Guild Wars 1.
You should expect more from a sequel, not less.

Actually that would be Par for the course . When GW1 came out there were 5 professions and 10 dances .

I agree that more dances are needed but not that many . Since they already have it broken down by race why not just add a different dance for women of the different races.

I’ve got like 6 gazillion basic transmutation stones from daily stuff and zone completions so im not sure you can call it cost prohibitive . I think you just need to be a little more conservative with your use of them .

As cool as it would be to Play a Tengu the problem you come across is that they are pretty much xenophobic isolationists in GW2 and rarely leave the walls of their city .

Lorati.7361:

The major reason behind a trading UI is to prevent scams. It would take some work to add it, but the reduction of scam reports would probably add up to money saved for them over time.

Ice Cubes in place of Sapphires . Enough said .

I disagree . i could see a Polearm for a guardian but not a crossbow

The only problem I have with Charr lore is that Charr still exist. The only good Charr is a DEAD Charr

Odona.8402:

2. There is no game clock.
.

Yes there is its in the options menu. You can even set it to server or local time .

Do to the Mechanical nature of the crossbow the Engineer would be the best fit for this weapon an the Thief second . A crossbow would have some of the following functions

a pulling skill ,Vulnerability,A volley type skill,Bleed,Burning Perhaps Cripple and Immobilization as well depending on which class was using it . With as Few MMOs that actually use the Crossbow it would also be almost exclusive to Guildwars 2

The Crossbow hasn’t been implemented in an MMO for as long as iIcan remember and I think GW2 would be the perfect opportunity to do so .

At best the Engineer would get a Hammer for melee simply do to the nature of the class. .

last i heard Moas dont have pets….

The best way to level your crafting is to discover every recipe in a given tier including bags/boxes. as for the Fine mats your not alone there if its armor or weapon crafting of any sort its going to be using the same fine mats the only thing that changes is the raw materials

generally speaking turrets dont but Net turret would work in such a roll as its immobilizing an enemy for a few seconds

Honestly if your going to roll support go med kit use the Acidic Elixirs trait in Firearms and Packaged Stimulants in Tools

I’ll be honest here the elixir is a better heal than the healing turret especially when you’re soloing . The chances are your going to have to dodge out of your healing turret besides the Supply Crate will provide one later .

As for traits when it comes to Pistols you need to put points in power otherwise you wont dish out enough straight damage with them later. Also keepp in mind since your doing a turret build that Accelerant packed turrets is in Fire arms and you’ll need at least 20 to get it .

As for toughness versus vit go toughness , you’ll get buffs to your turrets and the Supply Crate elite ( I personally am putting 30 in it ). You can always put Vitality runes on if you feel you need more health later.

I personally roll with duel pistols ,turrets and usually supply crate for my Elite .However before locking yourself in i would suggest playing around with different skills and seee what you like best .

if they scaled rewards to your level you’d have a bunch of level 80s running around queensdale killing easy stuff for XP and Money

well if your in a level 5 zone such as Queensldale why not just go into Divinities Reach then teleport to LA from there and save some cash .

As for the XP scaling if they did that then High level characters would just spend all their time in low level zones killing the easy stuff . After all why should I fight hard stuff when i could stomp everything i see in a low level zone .

This event spawns WAY too fast .I swear I was standing in the area for 15 mins before the event to prevent the Jotun from taking the weapons spawned ( a cake walk ) and the Jotun Champion event spawned again. On top of that any half competent player could solo the champion which makes it farmable .

Yea you see almost nothing but botters attacking even when nothing is there .

My turreteer’s end game build is gong to have 20 Explosives 20 Firearms 30 Inventions . Im using Shrapnel and accelerant packed turrets in explosives Rifled Barrels and Hair trigger in Fire arms and Metal Plating Elite Supplies and Riffled Turret Barrels in inventions.
