How would you handle armor designs?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

If i had ANYTHING to say over at a-nets design department then armor would be heavily themed towards the professions rather then going some "eh… i guess that could be a (insert class here) armor " route but without restrictions to other classes within the same weight class. Basically instead of getting a generic and boring leather coat drop you might get a ranger themed top with hunting trophies such as animal teeth and tails that decorate it… or a with utility belt and pouches decorated leather harness or a ninja\assassin like tunic with throwing knives. If you are a medium class you could equip it no problem. Basically almost all armors would have a clear design to them and look like they are meant to be for a certain class….rest is up to the players. I mean we already got warriors in ballgowns, mesmers with heavy platemail and lich like looking guardians running arround. So yea…

Lion/Dragon mask, dyes, balloon in gemstore

The dragon mask actually looks really good, even on charr for some reason, sure takes the horns away but this time i can shrug it off. Usually not my personal taste.. but im pretty sure this is going to be a perfect helmet for my D\D ele…fire breath ftw. Now i just need a set of shoulders that look dragon themed and maybe some heavy looking armor bottoms but im sure thats manageable. Also the dyes are extremely vibrant… im not 100% sure ill buy em, ill see how my dye combinations look with my armor but that mask is mine when i come home from work.

What Legendaries Are You Hoping For?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

Well If I buy expansion I will probably get every legendary in game, because there wont be RNG involved… But after that crafting I wont get any because of rng…

well another reason to fork over some bucks to get it then hm?

Anyways… i sat down yesterday and was playing a bit arround with z brush while watching tv…something like this would be kittening amazing (imo)

What other fixes and additions will we see?

Let’s be honest, the question we should be asking is, what are they going to break next?

They broke trait acquisition with the new unlock system. They have broken the levelling experience with the NPE. They have destroyed the daily system with the changes to the daily and monthly achievements.

I wonder what is the expansion going to break for us.

Well we didnt enjoy the pleasure of a mega nerf since a while…well we got might nerfed..but thats not nearly enough. Im still able to play my class (in pve) after replacing my armor and runes.. that got to be “featured away” asap.

I seem to have missed any new hairstyles and faces from the data-mine threads I follow. Do you have a link I can peruse?

that_shaman tweeted that he “looks at a bunch of new hairdos”… i rather dont risk to link something cause im not sure if thats forbidden or not. Just google" that_shaman " and look at his reddit posts, tweets or look at his youtube account.. he renders stuff he datamines.

I do..regularly. Nothing about hairstyles or faces.

Looking at the new models: armor set(s), bunch of new hairstyles.. something I’m not sure about if it’s supposed to be armor or an outfit..

Hobo Sacks: A Terrible Fashion Statement

in Engineer

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

It hasn’t been ignored – there are some responses about removing hobo sack a few pages ago – i really hope they get rid of the hobosack in hot.

in the poi where they talked about adventures the war of the dev used a flamer kit without a hobosack and it was holstered on the back like a rifle…so yea lets hope thats the norm now for kits

If a fix is coming at all, the release of HoT is our best bet. It’s the perfect opportunity for ANet to run through the long list of low priority issues and fix them in one sweeping patch, ready for the influx of new players. If hobosacks are still around after HoT, we might as well give up hope.

Well if they really shouldnt fix it at HoT then im actually out of that game and move on. I had enough of the constant ignoring and i really doubt im going to get anything nice armor wise in the x-pac (charr engineer… and that seems to be the version of the helmet in the trailer for charr…so im pretty certain the majority of the rest of charr related stuff will look equally charming http://i.imgur.com/pD8QIg4.png ) so i want to have atleast the hobosack gone to have an atleast somewhat nice looking charr engineer atleast ONCE. Im really not asking for much but a simple darn fix to have atleast equal footing with other classes in the armor\backpiece department… and if 2 years of rageposting that slowly turned into desperate begging isnt enough to bring across a point.. then ill find myself a new “home” that gives a darn..

well i knew of 2 blindfolds… the “leather” one with the rune and the metal one with the spikes… hows the 3rd one looking? Any pics?

there are two leather blindfolds, with different runes on them. one of them rytlock wears, the other was datamined alongside the spiked one.

good to know to have most likely 3 different blindfolds available. Ill most likely just start my rev over 3 times to unlock em all for later

my issue with the LS is that im reduced to an observer in basically my own story. Npcs do stuff… i stand there and observe…and eventually save the day cause they are useless in battle (what is perfectly fine). I feel more like the senile old man group mascot that everybody just tells he is the boss cause it makes him feel good.

-old man voice- “I remember back in my days getting that darn chutulu wannabe dragon from the skys, joining an order i want and having a choice in what i wanna do and how i wanna do it….those where the days. Now these darn kids with their angst and their magics try to save the day and if kitten hits the fan ol granpa basalt still gotta bust out the old rifle himself.”

Sometimes i really feel like shouldnt even be there…what is…weird. Why does an iron legion charr engineer pact commander care about human party politics rather then…lets say inspecting\testing an experimental pact weapon or airship to use against the mordrem just to have a small example? As much as i hate traherne…he atleast gave me a choice in how i wanna advance. Sure it eventually led to the same outcome…but i still had a choice in HOW i go to the outcome. Im by all means not a roleplayer in the traditional sence.. but i do like to roleplay in my head as i play…if that makes sence. The LS really doesnt give me that whatsoever. Sure.. there is nostalgia, really detailed and with lots of love made locations (glints lair and library to name my favourites) and obviosly somebody gives a darn about the story…even if its atm really not my meal…but meh.. it still doesnt take that wrong feeling away..no matter how hard i try.

well.. the only thing that SHOULD happen to sylvari is some trippy stuff in the story…like remember the toxic offshoots? If you go near them your char gets…lets say a bit trippy. An altered version of that easy could be a way to show that corruption is trying to take over and brings with it some phantasms to battle and some “i see you…..” mordi sweet talk. Meanwhile non sylvari chars just fight off some “normal” mordrem and done. Player fights and resists the corruption and stuff is fixd…well atleast for the player sylvari. I totally wouldnt mind to see npc sylvari just breaking down and turning over the HoT story…i mean we had it with pact members in orr too that turned risen…like the infiltrator chick at the manson with the mouth of zhaitan…and the master hunter norn that went predator on our kitten to name some examples ontop of my head.

Please make Masteries Character-bound!

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

How many alts do you people have?
I don’t want to be rude, but having 12 alts in any MMO is not exactingly normal.
My cousin was playing WoW from launch for more than 8 years continuously and still plays whenever a new expansion comes up, and he still only manage to level up and gear properly 6 of them!.. IN 8 YEARS!

You people having so many alts was the game’s fault at launch for not having enough end-game content. But if you start whining about every single progression mechanic becoming account-bound the game will never get it! The process of the game that will suffer the most and become the most grindy and mindless would be the process of making new characters!!!
Instead, making the Masteries Character bound would mean much less grind for the individual, and the option for more strategic decisions for the alts!

IMO, A-nets biggest mistake was to put the idea of account bound masteries in your heads so early in the first place!

Well to people´s defence.. its not hard to make alts and fully equip em in exotics in a week… IF you do it a “casual fast” way by kitten ing about in EoTM an hour or 2 a day. If you PVP on a regular basis you can stock up with so many tomes of knowledge to have a lvl 80 alt thats fully geared in exotics in less then 20 mins and since the new daily system you can get the tomes pretty darn fast in pve aswell if you want to.

Might gonna sound like an kitten… but why should people get expansion stuff when not buying the expansion? Isnt that sorta like…stupid example…but buying a box of legos to build a tank engine without wagons and later when they release the wagons as extra boxes asking how many free parts you get from the boxes you didnt buy? Dont get me wrong.. i dont mind either way…but just sayin. Its sorta weird… afterall you did get your… theoretical tank engine you paid for and its yours to keep…you even got free extra parts to it (LS) and now comes the box with the wagons and ppl ask whats free? Huh…well… is weird.

“teach”… yea… you really do need to teach stack and attacking or getting a feel for your class or running a build you arent comfortable with…cause many people are not comfortable with zerk. “joyfull” yea…yea.. i wanna see how many people would be all that joyfull in a “fullzerk” group…especially people who DO need to learn how to survive in zerk…90% will just kick the poor guy and have it over with . The only pro is that zerkers can sigh in relief that they cant possible mingle with no zerk peasants on accident, free thinkers ,heretics who dont bow to the allmighty meta or people who got a few minutes more time then they do and by god we cant have that. Also if most pro players are happy to teach…then shouldnt people start with stats they are comfortable with? MIGHT be a logical step to take…just sayin. I consider myself a “better then average” player…clearly nowhere “epic” but i do manage to do my solo\duo dungeon runs. Top times or anything? Nope and neither do i care. IF somebody would ask me for advice i rather would try to find a build together with the guy\girl who wants help that works for him\her and feels comfortable and with that said build we do content together till “it sticks” and then id introduce them slowly to something more zerker related. But then again i might just be a basketcase who needs to be locked away. Actually maybe the gear check is a good thing afterall…but lets extend this even further and just give the party leader an option to block people from even seeing an LFG or getting into the dungeon instance if they arent equipped like he\she wants it. Whatever.. im out

I have sympathy for you Nevets Crimsonwing. I completely agree with every single point you’ve made and honestly can’t fathom lasting as long as you have repeating yourself and dealing with all of the illogical whining.

I commend you.

The most whining I ever hear inside this game involves zerkers and the fact it took an extra minute to complete a dungeon.

Thats exactly the reason why i dont care about having a gear check in game. The only reason i could see a gear check usefull is for build advice… but i doubt somebody who wants advice would link anything but stuff they use atm. Anybody else wouldnt give a darn about what build\gear you use as long as you dont suck\die all 2 seconds\work as team. Imo people who cant deal with having non zerkers in their group should kick em.. ask to ping gear or to be extra sure DONT PUG and make groups with same minded people or guilds and call it a day rather then wanting special treatment…cause lets face it.. almost nobody but dungeon\fractal zerkers want it.

Your picked races for your Revenant?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

Male Norn
I hope the Blindfold is for Revenant only, and i hope it’s mandatory

I cant have a Charr because of how big they’re in the Character Select.

you can make a charr fairly small actually. In “default” hunched stance a max small charr stands arround the height of a human male…just for some trivia lol. As for the blindfold… i doubt its mandatory..though it most likely is going to be the class “trademark” like for example the noble masquerade thing for mesmers, the blue “ankh” for the guard and the skulls and black\green thing necros are always depicted with.

Yah. The blindfold will be in the wardrobe once you get it and since it’s heavy armor that means there will be blindfolded warriors and guardians running around also.

i actually really wonder what 3 starter items the rev is gonna get…but thats for a different theme

New classes?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

well we get specialisations very soon that will “mix up” the classes and the way they are played. So basically you will have soon

-Druid (ranger specialisation)
-Necro with greatsword (will most likely go the death knight route)
-Mesmer with shield (that SEEMS to go into chronomancer direction)
-Hammer engineer (also uses drones, not sure what direction thats gonna be)

Also we do know that the warrior gets an F2 skill with his specialisation (as visible in the PoI stream recently) and there seems to be a leak (SEEMS so take it with a grain of salt cause this is NOT official comfirmed) that the guardian gets a longbow.

Also there will be a completely new class called the revenant…besides a rather…ritualistic look with blindfold and sinister designed (heavy) armor and what the devs said about it (channels past legends of the gw lore…do with that what you want) we dont know much as of yet….but it looks kittening cool so much i can say.

Basically you soon will have some material to work with OP…if its what you are looking for…not sure, but lets just wait and see till they reveal more about it

hmm… lets see mine

- Equal armor quality for all races and unique pieces if needed to keep a race feature
intact (such as charr horns, asura 3 toe boots and stuff like this)

- Profession themed armor (not restricted to other classes, but themed specific)

- More ways to make an unique char (battle stances, voices…you get the idea)

- More fractals, harder dungeons, harder encounters in general

- Anti meta measures and encounters that make it impossible to stack or “cheat” in
general.

well one can dream..

Engineer: Hammer:

1.
(A) Friction Swing: Swing your hammer and gather heat.
(B) Heated Swing: Swing your hammer again, gathering more heat.
(C ) Blasting Cap: Smash the super heated hammer into the ground, detonating the blasting cap on its tip.
2. Nerve Sap: Spin and leech speed, crippling nearby foes. Gain swiftness for each foe hit.
3. Sonic Uppercut: Swing your hammer, launching a sonic wave in a line that launches foes back towards you.
4. Rocket Rush: Slide forward and collide with your target, leaving behind a line of fire that burns foes. Immobilizes on impact.
5. Surgical Strike: Point and drop an explosive rocket on the target area.

Didnt the Engi in the vid have some sort of drones around him? I kinda assumed they were part of its hammer skills and not some additional utility skill

well to be fair they said that specialisations come with weapon, utility\healing\elite skills and new mechanic. Maybe the new mechanic are the drones…like for the F1-4 skills…but i actually hope they arent. I do like to use my kits and without the F skills i loose 2 blast finishers, 1 stun break and stability…boy that would suck

No it is not. Way to take what i said out of context entirely. If you are joining a Zerker group you had better wearing Zerker armor and you had better be expected to ping it. If you join a “All is welcome” or “Lvl80s EXP” Group then you can wear whatever the hell you want and nobody will care.

I Dont care what you are wearing, unless im in a speed run group or zerker group where its clearly stated what the group is for.

yea then just kick people if they either dont show the gear or read the battle log to see if the one in question does not got the output of a zerker? Problem solved. No system needed. Also in PuGs you shouldnt demand that everything is running perfectly…or a system just to check 1 stat combination in game…well THE stat combination better said..

Profession Specific Armor/Weapon Sets

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

Id be happy with class specific designs that can be worn by other classes in the same weight class already. We got a wardrobe system and can mix and match till the cows come home…well…within the weight class obviosly so i really dont see a reason why a thief shouldnt wear ranger or engi styled armor…or a mesmer armor designed for an ele. We afterall all see our chars different and may or may not like different designs. I however support the idea that you can buy “class specific” armor with a maxed out char as a sorta…reward so to say… a form of “low level prestige” if i may call it that way. After you unlocked the skins you just could transmute your other chars in the same weight class like usual… cause afterall nothing is stopping you now either. Also just imagine what crazy and cool combinations could come from that.

Lets just wait and see how its even gonna be when they release some footage of a specialisation and the new features we get with it before we call bs on it. Well i do got my torches and pitchforks at the ready…but id rather have a reason to use em rather then going nuts.

^

well id be kittening kittened and distrustfull and most likely would re-enact the movie “the thing” with every sylvari that crosses my path… flamer and everything. Dragon minions (usually) are pretty darn obviosly dragon minions with visible corruption. Sure there where a few (notable risen) that disguised themselfes or used mesmer powers to generate illusions (notable the mesmer in the manor in orr that is more or less a sentinel of the mouth of zhaitan in the basement) but all dragon minions more or less try to kill non minions or to corrupt em (like the norn guy who uses a sword made from jormags blood in the durmand story branch). Sylvari on the other hand lived among the other races, fought side by side the other races, led them to battle (traherne) and learned about them and that all while beeing basically dragon minions themselfes…unknowingly in most cases..sure but it doesnt change the fact. I personally most likely couldnt trust somebody that easily could kill me in my sleep or stab me in the back on the battlefield when some dragon that obviosly is out to corrupt the world gets the bright idea to just focus his powers on the sylvari next to me and forces him\her to do it and im calling it now that this is gonna happen a lot. I seriosly doubt that to resist a dragon´s power is something that can just be shrugged off afterall….or did you ever come across a minion of the other dragons that was like “sup guys im on your side btw, nice knowing you, lets fight the one who made\corrupted me lol kay?” Also… im certain sylvari didnt resist anything…or did you ever saw a risen destroyer or a branded undead? In fact minions of different dragons actually fight eachother if they cross paths.

Gliding system and Armor set designs etc....

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Basaltface.2786

Basaltface.2786

ya know op… some people play gw2 to basically escape everything you just listed. For me personally its these….armor designs. If thats plate armor then im granny smith. Cept…maybe 2-3 sets in the vid all these armors looks like a light armor…or something light armor like, not like they are ugly or something but they are really not gw..cept some designs that really look mesmer to me. The gliding we get may or may not be an afterthought..but its a mechanic for a few maps and most likely meant to get used to traverse the extremely vertical designs we gonna get and to avoid that all 3 seconds some of us lemmings falls of the cliffs and to his\her certain doom…just watch the HoT trailer, whats shown is vertical to the max. Grinding? Yea right.. lets not do that. I played aion quite some time ago…made myself a gladiator and had one of these big halberd thingies. Looked like a cool game but that grind was mindnumbing… i played for about a week and i saw 1 greatsword drop, zero new armors and i think i made it to lvl 20…after fighting the same darn tribe of hamster people (heck i dunno anymore how they where called) for days on end….so yea if you propose to make aion wars 2 i gonna tell ya… nope. Want a grind? Make a legendary and dont cheat (aka dont buy the precursor or the mats you need for it)

Don’t talk to me about Legendaries I have 5 of them and sold 3 in tp and buying prec in tp is cheating? Lol! Its either you dont know how the game works or you’re new to the game. Smartest way to make legendary is to farm gold and buy prec rather than burning it to mystic toilet. Post above is just merely a suggestion and wow you guys are already crying now I understand why Anet dumb down the leveling process. Oh yeah I forgot Gw2 has become very casual I guess you can ignore the post above….

nobody is crying here cept actually you lol. Gw2 is like it is…take it or leave it be. Gw2 was designed to be different from other mmos rather then doing what most of them do. If you want grind, aion armor sets and gliding like in aion you might aswell play aion. As for the grind suggestion i gave ya… what makes it a bad suggestion? If you grind for enough exotics to dump over and over into the forge and also grind all the mats you need by hand without ever touching the tp to buy em then you got a massive grind that should keep you busy for years. And i play the game since 2 years now and i do hate the NPE even if i fail to see what this got to do with my post or the topic in general. If you wanna call me a dirty noob to make yourself feel superior to me then just do it and skip the bs.

Dragonite-consuming item update?

It would be nice to allow people to craft the kitten star.

Afaik there is one key item you cant get anymore and you cant make the star without it.

This so much this! i was unable to play during the wintersday event because my animals ate my power cord.

And now i cant get that star T.T

Real life happens, but it would be nice if the star wouldve stayed around after wintersday

Im sure they will bring it back some day. Afterall its a very popular and extremely helpfull item. Heck maybe they even add it to the laurel vendor…they did it with older rewards too afterall.

Best of luck at Bungie John Ryan!

Cloth nodes - Why not in-game?

They could add washing lines behind some houses where we can pinch stuff. More likely they’ll just remove cloth from the game instead though :P

the mental image about that is hilarious. Just imagine some dude in armor with glowy weapon snatching your fresh washed cushion covers and cutting them to silk scraps to make armor out of it later. 10/10 would want

Then the NPC owner of the cloth comes out.
“You have a kittening Legendary and full Ascended gear! Leave me my cloth scraps and my dignity!”
Then the NPC attacks, you kill it, and loot it for more cloth~

…What? Lots of people want to be eeeevil in this game anyway. Let ’em.

would be funnier if the npc would just throw stuff like flowerpots and rolling pins after you and got plot armor so that you got no other choice then to scram. Seriosly.. why isnt that in the game? XD

There is no rage like a woman who’s undies you are snatching from the clothes line.

She should turn into a champion who one shots the offending players.

rather a world boss…

I doubt it, there are so many kinky/revealing armors in this game.
Having underage looking characters in kinky armor would most likely create problems for anet. Frankly I don’t know how japanese games get away with it, cultural differences I guess.

As long as your game isn’t pornographic, there’s no issue really. Well, outside of China. I think the people putting forth this kind of argument and having this kind of stance are the most immature and self-hating kind of people.

Why are we so defensive about things “looking kinky”?

Its not for everybody ya know. I for example dont like “kinky” armor. I personally prefer to have armor that looks like atleast in theory could protect you and chars of atleast 18 years wearing em. There are other ways i can (and do) ogle at a cleavage or naked skin in general. Well im not here to judge or demonise people who do like this sort of stuff cause there is nothing at all wrong with it…but i personally do draw the line at age for many reasons.

Can only speak for myself…but i find stuff like this incredible creepy and uncomfortable…especially if combined with kinky armor. Might just be me though.

Tonics to Outfits. It's time.

there never was a time not to do that. I as outfit hater would even support to have the tonics as outfits. So much wasted skins.. so sad. Atleast as outfits they would have some real use to people again.

Actually I think many of the human males look young as well. Most look in their lower 20’s.

Yep. I struggle to make one that doesn’t look like he would be a supporting act for Bieber.

thats basically why i dont play humans. I (personally) dont want to play a char that looks like he only just recently lost his braces and got permission of his parents to go out and kill dragons…but only till 10 cause tomorrow is school…and norn are too…norn for me (cant find my zen with that race…i really dunno why, by definition and style i should love em cause i usually love viking and nordic stuff). Heck my army of female charrs look unintentionally more manly then 90% of human males (what i find actually funny and i didnt even notice that i made a chick with my first and still main char). Though… i wont lie, id gladly make a human male…if there would be options to make a rugged, battle field shaped and “angry” or atleast experienced looking male. Something like this in the attachment would do it already for me. But back to the theme… not want to de-rail the topic too much

I’m at work but I have a male warrior modeled after Spartacus minus all the blood. I will post pic soon.

goodie curios how it looks.

Gliders for EoTM

Guns of icarus style combat in the air providing support to ground troops? Sounds awesome but probably a pain to implement.

i doubt it actually would be that hard to do to be honest. Have an event start and “split” the people up…some…dunno protect a dude that goes from a to b while the others board an airship with turrets\arrow carts that face downwards and make the ship follow the path the guy is going. That way people could use the turrets for air support and heck maybe make it like at the zhaitan battle and make some of mordi´s dragon thingies (that he seems to have plenty of anyways) attack the ship´s deck with aoe here and there. Imo that SHOULD be not that hard to make.

Gliding system and Armor set designs etc....

ya know op… some people play gw2 to basically escape everything you just listed. For me personally its these….armor designs. If thats plate armor then im granny smith. Cept…maybe 2-3 sets in the vid all these armors looks like a light armor…or something light armor like, not like they are ugly or something but they are really not gw..cept some designs that really look mesmer to me. The gliding we get may or may not be an afterthought..but its a mechanic for a few maps and most likely meant to get used to traverse the extremely vertical designs we gonna get and to avoid that all 3 seconds some of us lemmings falls of the cliffs and to his\her certain doom…just watch the HoT trailer, whats shown is vertical to the max. Grinding? Yea right.. lets not do that. I played aion quite some time ago…made myself a gladiator and had one of these big halberd thingies. Looked like a cool game but that grind was mindnumbing… i played for about a week and i saw 1 greatsword drop, zero new armors and i think i made it to lvl 20…after fighting the same darn tribe of hamster people (heck i dunno anymore how they where called) for days on end….so yea if you propose to make aion wars 2 i gonna tell ya… nope. Want a grind? Make a legendary and dont cheat (aka dont buy the precursor or the mats you need for it)
