Guild Wars 2

Does it exist? And if it doez where does one find it?
Kinda weird that theres no sub forum for rping in a mmoRPg

And if there are rp communitys somewhere how does one find them?

i started playing a lot after hot launch and i never did any dungeon beyond the story mode
is there a reason to do them/.
’?

are u nuts?
gear is extremely easy to get considering the fact that u dont ever have to switch the asc gear

It used to be easier. Back when Exotic Berserker gear (with Ruby orbs!) was BiS, running all paths for CoE every day for two weeks gave enough tokens for a full set of exotic armour, and another four days for a set weapons. Gearing up was effectively free. And we still got gold to boot!

Compare that to well over 500g in mats required to craft the equivalent in Ascended gear.

so it was a joke back then and now it requires a tiny bit of effort

you’re quite welcome

Jahroots.6791:

Khyan.7039:

yeah fractals that gives end-game stuff and a lot of golds have to be easy. you’re right. /sarcasm

It’s like 10g a day average plus maybe another 2 or 3 in drops, not that much to be honest. The only consistent endgame rewards from fractals are Ascended rings, and everyone who ever did fractals has a surplus of them anyway. The armour and weapon chests have a relatively low drop rate (around 12%).

Either way, there was a time when getting max level. BiS gear wasn’t prohibitively expensive or tedious. Those were good days.

Jahroots.6791:

There’s a pretty big demand for accessible and rewarding 5-man instances, and a lot of people miss the daily dungeon tours. Thus, fractals have to be quick and easy because they are replacing dungeons.

Raids are the go-to for time consuming and challenging instances.

a single raid with 3 kittening bosses cannot be the go to for challenging content
its a just a joke sorry

here in anet we believe in doing things differently FOR THE SAKE OF DIFFERENCE
so you will see no capes her now bugger off

Jahroots.6791:

Nope. I’d rather they let us make continue to make our own lazy decisions. And I especially don’t want to see 59 or 69 Cliffside again, as long as I live. We get plenty of variety on the lower levels. 51+ is just a quick gamble for Ascended chests.

well with such kittened players in the community i guess anets decisions start to make sense now

Ayrilana.1396:

I had suggested of any three fractals in that fractal level range, making it three unique fractal maps within that fractal level range.

In any case, it’s the players choosing to do three swamps. You can always create a LFG for the levels that you want to do which are not swamp.

no
its anets fault for not giving any incentive to go and do the other ones

please,for the love of the FSM change the daily fractals
after a few weeks it NOT fun doing swamp 3 times a day
however,anet did buff the kitten out of fract rewards so we do have an interest in going there

a simple solution:

this has been done in many MMOs,when you are giving a good reward for a daily dungeon u HAVE to limit the number of choices
so for example lets say that every day the system generates 6 random fractals in the range range(lets say it generates from 50 and higher ) and you have to do 3 out of the 6
see how simple it is? after such a change ppl will actually get to see every fractal more than once

same principle could be applied to daily dungeons and it will also justify a decent reward

DoogySnowStalker.2069:

This is a known issue, that Rangers have already posted in the Ranger Bugs Forum. But like most Ranger bugs, they go on to be ignored, even after existing since the 1 day of Guild Wars 2.

this is pathetic
like the ele overload earth prot bug that went unfixed for an entire pvp season
if the game cant take itself srsly i guess i cant either

its just me or fires like 20 projectiles?
if it is a bug and it still exists so late after launch its just embarrassing

Guild Wars 2 HAS NO BALANCE and never really had
relax,this game is supposed to be played extremely casually

go away thieves nobody wants u

Thieves are just in a bad spot in pvp cuz of all the bunkers

the cancer the plagues ranked,playing a glass amulet with better sustain than some bunkers is unchanged?
well done

PlayerX.5307:

I know how we can fix PvE issues.

Taunt.

It would fix 90% of their mechanic problems in raids/fractals. It would allow people to run tank builds, healing builds, and dps builds.

We get it, the removal of the holy trinity sounded cool. But it doesn’t work. Clearly. Please give us a taunt that every class could learn just for pve. It doesn’t have to be added in PvP.

they will never admit the total removal of the trinity was a dumb gimmicky idea
so i think we can forget that one

They do have skill balance splitting tech for like 2 years now. Why the hell don’t they use it? I don’t even play PvP anymore. I want to raid but I can’t because my prof is a garbage!!!

this!!!!
i know that balancing pvp is hard we get it
but balancing pve is so kittening easy my labrador can do it

And how would you balance the classes if it’s so easy? Exactly what would you do?

Give classes unique party buffs so that even if it does a bit less damage you would rather bring for example a warr a thief and a herald(good $.#) instead of 3 heralds hurr rdurrrrr(bad .)
every mmo since the dawn of time does that to avoid class stacking

How’s that “balanced”?

every class will be wanted and stacking wont be optimal durrrrrr
is it that faking hard to comprehend?
it will solve the pve issue

It won’t. Of everything that those classes uniquely provide, people will determine which are the most optimal to have and then form a meta around that. Classes will still be “excluded”. There will still be an imbalance.

it will.
because it should create an environment where the optinal 10 man raid has 1 of each class in it
4 faks sake wow has done this for years

Every class does have something unique.

However, having something unique does not make it worth taking. This will always be the case and doesn’t change even if you split balance between PvE and PvP.

Part of the problem with the current state of “Balance” if you will, is that it happens so infrequently, and is inconsistent by design. If you read their “state of the game” they intend the next balance patch to shake up the meta drastically…This should never ever be a design goal. A more realistic goal would be to have a shape for which you want PvP to be in and aim for that with constant small tweaks during season while using off-season/pre-season to brainstorm and test more holistic changes (things like new maps/modes/changes to match making etc.).

PvE problems are a can and a half for other reason. Mob design and Mob AI limit any sort of builds that are “reactionary” eg. Daredevil (thief in general) and the constant design change to remove skill viability (see removing stealth from cannon phase of Mai Trin) doesn’t promote skilled/strategic gameplay like it really should.

Of course there’s always a numerical side to balance that is out of whack somewhere, but if all classes were “equal” you would run into the class stacking issue we already have. Thus the problem with “balance” on either side of it you run into the same issue of stacking whatever is most optimal.

my point was rather simple
mesmers for examples have rather low damage yet u still want 1 in your group over a double anythin else cuz they have a unique buff
every class needs some uniue buff,at least those with less dps

Will u be able to glide in jump puzzles?

fine its kk that u balance pvp but why oh my are u not even addressing the fact that nobody wants thieves,guards,non support druid rangers,non condi necros,non condi engis and many many others in raids or in any hard pve content?
why are u not even addressing the fact that pve is nasty dps-race?

WTF was wrong with soldiers????

wtf is the problem with soldier amulet?
thats kittened

HEYA

pretty basic still cool

Rio.4259:

Don’t tell me what I don’t want.

arrrrrrg

the maps weren’t designed with gliding in mind like maguma
it will kitten it up
and anet knows this to be true
the only reason anet might add this eventually is to encourage the weirdos who didn’t buy the expac to do it because they will see gliders in the starting zones
say no to gliding in main tyria

yea its been suggested since launch u can forget about it

HELL YES +1000000000

Anthems.6293:

Same cannot create and i just bought expansion also Face palm for me then , sounds waste of money and time

its weird that hasn’t been fixed yet since the morning

lol this again why?
trying to start a new toon getting the unable to access login server crap
any1 else is enjoying this atm?

for pvp the strongest condi is mallyx rev

Amaranthe,

You couldn’t be more wrong. There are more than 2 sides to this. You have your computer, the Anet servers and countless other node points between them. We already know that it is not a problem with the Anet server (every single player would have an issue) and you seem pretty sure its not your computer, so the issues is somewhere between them. You cant say every other game works fine, because they use different routes.

As it has been said many times, use traceroute or ping plotter and determine where the problem is.

i havent had any issues today so far and it seems things are back to normal
guess the magical problem along the way resolved itself

If it happens again during the evening hours when most people are on then I’m sure it’s your ISP.

it happened during the evening and throughout the night even at 3 am and 4 am
and u know EVERYONE plays at 4 am

Andraus.3874:

Never mind I was just trying to help. People post about this often and I bring up the issue where a server problem results in everyone experiencing problems. So you can rule that out since not everyone is experiencing problems. It could be an issue with your hardware or your settings being too high and having issues like over heating or lots of other things. But if you are set on it being a server issue I won’t try any harder to change your mind and I hope you can figure out what’s wrong. You can also put in a support ticket if you like Though idk how far that will get you.

if it was a an issue on my side i would see problems elsewhere+
i dont

Andraus.3874:

You can try running a repair. But if there isn’t a huge outcry that there’s issues server side then it is on your end. If it is server side it will affect everybody not just a select few. To be honest I’m not good at advising in these things. But yeah it really can’t be a server side issue. You can google and learn how to test for packet loss like by running a trace route. That can help you determine if it’s a hardware issue

an issue on my end that only effects gw2 and no other aspects of the internet? not even other mmos which still have the same kitten ping?
sounds legit

If you’re playing from SEA/OCE, then you’re gonna have a very unstable experience. I’m just gonna keep on commenting and up-voting posts like these till ANet does right by us.

what does SEA/OCE, stand for?
im having bad lag spikes that started a few days ago as well
my connection didnt change
why the sudden start now?

How do you know your connection didn’t change? Internet connection works likes traveling to a distant city. The fastest way can get clogged up sometimes. Your ISP may be having issues or you may be getting routed a different and longer route or through a provider that has issues with packet loss. SEA and OCE refer to regions of the globe so distant players that are connecting to NA or EU servers but since they live so far away they have issues.

everything works fine except for gw2
even other mmos still work flawlessly
