Guild Wars 2

they do need a third heavy armor class.. perhaps a magical warrior?

a warrior that enchants their weapons/armor with magic and has attacks that can steal life ect. like a necro/ele mixed with warrior.

you know the typical spellblade type class.

Shades.4572:

My top five six in no particular order:

1. Ability to mystic forge/upgrade 250 Transmute Stones to 8-20 Transmute Crystals
The input of 250 and out put of 8-20 shouldn’t really effect gem store purchases of the crystals, plus those numbers can always be tweaked.

2. Addition of the Clock Tower and Wintersday jp achievements to the jp category
Doesn’t even need to reward achv pts, just there to document if you did it before since they will be reoccurring.

3. Anet going back through all the armors giving them more dye slots
Since not every armor has 4 dye options and it could really add to customization.

4. New inventory option for Minis for on or off
Similar to the check boxes for show/hide bags & rarity except this option would make it so your mini would always be there. You die it lays down dead, you wp or travel it is still there, you swim it’s gets put into an air bubble. If you have multiple minis in your bag then it chooses the first one.

5. More titles for existing achievements/more unique titles
Search for title threads there have been a few good ones. Such as, more unique titles for pvp no champion xxx, biography based titles for what you choose in creation, titles for slayer achievements, also title for each dungeon completion, 100% jps. It’s fairly cheap content since the system is already in place.

6. One update patch focusing on Guild improvements
Adding a 6th to my list because well I can. Improvements include last log in, event calendar, and ability to set access for Deep Cave separate from Treasure Trove.

im sorry but #4 will never happen.. ever… because if they did that.. everybody would display minis all the time and cause lag for people on low end computers… they wouldn’t do that to people.

also.. id imagine #6 happening when they add in guild halls (and they will eventually).

ill add that cantha will never be coming back…

the Asians in real life made sure of that. because of them all canthans in GW 2 were removed and the canthan district in divinities reach was sucked into a black hold (the great collapse) because the asians cant stand them being represented in the game.. (dont know what their problem is… but anyways we wont get cantha unless they stop being selfish kittens).

i would want to see a violin too.. for my mesmer ;D

guild halls are comming eventually.. UW and FOW are closed off because the gods separated themselves from the humans.. and those are god worlds…

as for the obsidian armor.. sure thatd be nice.. tormented weapons too.

cantha is NEVER coming back.. EVER… (cus of real life issues preventing it.. mostly that the Asians do not want it as it bugs them for some stupid reason)

aww.. want a cookie?

most shields on most classes have a block skill that i know of.. i love the fact that having a shield doesnt make you auto block at random..

id be ok with that balsa.. as long as there was a fencing stance for mesmers ;D cus it looks odd with mesmers swinging their sword around like a warrior.. were supposed to be the elegant/beauty/deception class after all.. so youd think wed be a little more elegant with our attacks.. instead of slash slash slash slash slash… and more slashes…

especially when the animations for fencing already exist.. cus mai trinn is a fencer.

no offence.. but who would spend 20.000 gems.. for a hunting lodge? now.. if this was cantha we were talking about.. im sure people would spend over 100,000 gems..

but its not going to happen cus they already said no cantha.. and wiped the canthan district in divinities reach from the game and made it the great collapse.. because Asians are all selfish and dont want their culture used in a game without referencing them by name ect.. some bs like that.

its too bad too.. cus factions was my fav expansion in gw 1.. except the city part… that part annoyed me…

also about cantha.. we will NEVER be going to cantha.. EVER…. because the Asians disapprove.. it is why they had to remove canthans from the game entirely.. including the district in divinities reach dedicated to them.. (hello great collapse)…

because of this.. no matter how much i or anyone else wants it.. we will never see cantha again..

they did actually

too bad they already said there will be no expansions for gw 2.

mesmers should use a fencing stance/fighting style.. as they are the high class elegant class.. and fencing makes sense.

hes right hammer.. you should use menders purity… dont know how you havent run into conditions yet but they are everywhere in pvp..

also hes right about focus too.. not really a pvp weapon

hes also right about mirror of anguish.. dont use it…

and phantasmal fury is much better than blade training because it causes your phantasms to stack more bleed with their attacks and cutting the cooldown on blurred frenzy isnt really going to help you that much really in comparison.

but if your not 100% dps your not doing it right… gotta be straight up glass cannon or your a liability to your group.. at least thats how most groups see it… good luck getting a group with scepter or staff… people hate condition damage in pve with a passion.. and for good reason… it sucks..

well said…. the only shatter i ever use is distortion to protect me while stomping.. beyond that i never touch the shatters since i mostly use phantasms.

only… all conditions are the same….. mesmer burning isnt any more powerful than guardian burning..,. and they get much more of it.

i would prefer longer durations… sure it can be cleansed.. but if it isnt it keeps going…

the biggest problem is that condition mesmers rely on the enemy killing themselves..

if they enemy refuses to fight back.. the mesmer cant win.

no… dont do this… if you feel the need to use a website to track down all events fine.. but dont ruin it for everyone else who the game was designed for.

that would be ok with me.. the problem with mesmer is that it cant reliably inflict high stacks of any condition.. and the only way to get ok-ish stacks of bleeding is thru pistol and sharper images.. which happens to be a power spec (i dont get that our best condition applying method is in the duelist line)

the problem is that staff is too slow and conditions too short to do anything.. adding something that would hurt the enemy based on new conditions would help mesmers and engis (the 2 classes with the hardest time applying conditions) definatly dont give it to necros though (cus then theyd be even more OP than they already are)

rifle… so i can have my phantasm firing squads… i mean how cool would it be to have a line of rifle phantasms set up…

but other than that… mainhand pistol like everyone else.

maybe rifle could even have a skill where you summon 2 temporary phantasms by your side (dont count towarda total) and you team up for a volley then they leave.

i have to say the guy who said confusion should be like ineptitude is spot on.. interupting the next attack and dealing damage is much better than the way it is now.. for both pve and pvp.. even better if it made the skill go on cooldown.. so they would have to pay attention or they could lose a good skill.

what daibish said… it makes you think about where to put your points to allow for the most options.. you can adjust for every encounter if you set your points right.. i can do the same thing on my mesmer without changing trait points.. changing slots and weapons and utilities is enough.

cus its never going to happen.. anet is to busy with scarlet and the annoying living story to ever add a real dungeon to the game…

and they arent going to make an expansion.. so i dont ever see any permanent dungeons being added anytime soon.

there will not be expansions for GW 2.. not not.. and not anytime in the planned future… Anet is focused on the cash shop.. not expansions.

well this wouldnt really work.. cus the people who never played GW 1 or like me.. had their gw 1 accounts hacked.. would not be able to use this feature.. since they dont even have a HOM…

however… i do want to see more use of the home instance.. you never actually go back there after the story is over… kinda a waste of space.

perhaps.. instead.. you could apply this to the home instance instead… give it a reason to exist.. and reflect your achievements.. (didnt they say it would do that anyways?) and yet that never happened… the home instance hasnt changed one bit since story began.. except when doing missions in it.

absolutely not… it would be one of those things were its p2w.. right now it costs so that everybody couldnt use it all the time.. imagine if your suggestion was put in..

“looking for members for _ dungeon instant trait reset only NO EXCEPTIONS!”

would you want to see that? if they made a perm version they could ask for it as a sign of experience cus any rich people could buy it and also so they could change their builds mid dungeon…

i for one do not want to see this happen… EVER.. but fear it might happen one day.

because changing trait points changes your stats and build… changing the slots does not..

if you were a tank before changing slots wouldnt change that… youd still have the +toughness and hp ect..

if you could change trait points you could go from dps to tank and back.. right now you cant really. which is the point.

besides.. what does it matter? everybody goes 100% damage 100% of the time anyways cus efficiency.

yeah i agree.. i dont even have t3.. yet.. and i agree it should be exotic stats or a skin.. there is really no point in it being a gold armor when it costs 120 gold.. sure its a nice skin.. but thats why it should be a skin not a gold item..

mesmers need a speed boost WAYYYY before guardians do.. the only speed skill we have doesnt stack and its on focus.. one of the lesser used weapons… many mesmers end up using traveler or similar runes just to get around because were sooo kitten slow..

so if anything.. mesmer needs it first.

i would be ok with this if only because i want to wear town clothes in combat and cant for some dumb reason…

so yeah i would be in favor of a skin/appearance window.. at least for town clothes or something so we can wear them in combat.

id be happy if i could have a golden kasmeers staff with white glow.. i would also like to have white magic on my mesmer but thats a bit too far lol…

i just want the mesmer to have actual fencing animations for sword.. i mean mai trinn already has the fencing animations.. so id join up for your fencer idea just for that.. a more elegant focus for the sword.. instead of wild hacking and slashing.. which doesnt look right on a mesmer.. it could use a variety of ripostes and stabs…

i mean come on.. dont you agree blurred frenzy would make more sense if it had a riposte animation? how does wildy swinging your blade around block anything? it looks just like warriors skill.. doesnt look like it would block anything..

but if they changed it to a riposte animation.. it would actually look the part.

just change the appearance of aegis to some sorta swirling aura around your character and not just a shield over.. your shield lol.. would look much cooler that way.. and its not like its on often unless you r guardian.. and the aura doesnt have to be obscuring.

no lol.. honestly they shouldnt even sell the digital deluxe edition.. so consider yourself lucky.. it should have been something exclusive to people who ordered it before the game came out.. the fact that anyone can get what we payed extra for ingame without paying a cent.. is insane by itself.

i would like at least a way to save builds… what i mean is.. instead of going to npc and manually doing everything.. to have presets… so you could have a WvW build a dungeon build and a standard pve build and quickly switch between them at the trainer.. id be ok with that.

even gw 1 had a similar thing so its entirely possible.

would be cool if you could change the glow color on kasmeers staff as well (not all people are mesmers like me and dislike the purple but otherwise like the staff)

i made my own topic of dyeable weapons.. as did many other people.. but it long since dissapeared.

anet specifically said they dont want details on the screen.. seeing distance marked next to people is unnecessary and they wont add it.. no matter how much you beg or plead.. its part of their design goals to keep info as minimal as possible.. and what you ask is completely unnecessary.

so… basically.. you want the warrior.. a class with heavy armor.. to be.. a sniper? why not just give thief a gun and have a real sniper class…

this is completely pointless.. if they are out of range the skill turns red indicating they are out of range.. what more do you need to know?

and part of the game is learning your skills and learning to judge distance yourself.

i think illusionist would be a better subclass for mesmer… fencer sounds pretty cool though if they could use rapiers ect.

and with an illusionist subclass.. maybe they could finally let clones do damage again (like they used to back in the betas) it was funny cus everyone was making XxNarutoxX ect lol.. and using sword and using nothing but clones… it was kinda cool actually lol

right now clones are pretty useless except for shatter builds… by now most people learned not to fall for them in combat.. and they have very little hp.. it would be nice if they did some damage.. doesnt have to be alot.. maybe add a trait to mesmer instead that allows clones to do damage as they did in beta under the illusions traitline.

and even in pve clones are useless cus monsters would attack phantasms over clones cus they are a bigger threat… i only see monsters attack my clones if its directly in front of them on their way to you and you stealth.

i would love to have damage dealing clones back.. maybe the trait could have a tradeoff.. like clones deal damage but phantasms do 50% less damage.. or something like that.

it would be nice to have a change instead of just phantasms all the time.

for mesmer.. rapier classified as its own weapon type.. it only really fits with mesmer.. should be like a magic based melee weapon… with special moves that sword doesnt have.

i just really want a rapier for mesmer.. especially after seeing mai trinn using one…

ever since gw 1.. mesmers were always shown with rapiers in their hands.. not staffs or wands.. yet even in gw 2.. mesmers still dont have them (unless you pretend sword is like a rapier with its wild slashing which is totally unlike how mesmer should look)

dont forget distortion stomping… i do it all the time on mesmer.. all the illusions would die anyways.. so why not use them as a shield ;D

gold does the same thing… and its already in the game.. waste of dev time.

a simple fight against a flying enemy that actually flies (unable to be damaged by melee) until you do enough ranged damage on it or knock it out of the sky with like baliista or something then when enough damage is dealt it falls out of the sky and its true hp appears (while its flying it cannot be damaged and instead stacks fall off until it runs out and crashes into the area your in) it would do sweeping attacks across the stage and youd have to move from side to side to get into position to fire at i. everytime it falls into the stage portions of the stage start to fall off. if you take too long to defeat this boss the entire area falls apart and you lose the fight.

good news for you.. they are already getting rid of ranks soon… in favor of some new system based on skill.. i assume wins vs losses sorta thing.. so yay (i guess)

or.. you could just get to 80.. then it doesnt matter.. it really doesnt take long anyways..

i wish they would add more aoe nuke skills for mesmer staff so i can actually use it in pve without people going “omg noob mesmer staff is for noobs kick”

im tired of conditions being near useless in pve in general.. i would love if they gave mesmer staff some aoe damage… as mesmers currently lack it outside of 2 skills on 2 completely different weapons.

its not supposed to be easy… its supposed to be the very last thing you get in the game.. its a grind on purpose to keep people playing.. if it was easy to achieve it would lose its status.

and no i dont have a legendary… nor do i want one.. i think they are all ugly pieces of trash… but thats just me.

id even be ok if weapon dyes were separate from armor dyes… i just want the possibility.. and if Anet is listening.. that would mean you could sell weapon dyes.. we all know you guys need some incentive ;D

there are soo many weapons i would use if only i could change the colors on them to match my class.

i agree with everything here.. mini collection is more of a hassle than anything atm.
