350 hearts missing

Considering the amount of work that it takes for map completion at this point already, I’m glad they scaled it back. However, if you’ll notice, the original screen shot did not include vistas, which are now included. Given the amount of time it takes to climb to some of those vistas, I’d say it got balanced out.

That was taken when the game was still in development. If you really want to see the full back story on it, I recommend watching the full video that Wooden Potatoes put out.

Champions killed, no XP or champ bag

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

In all honesty I have never received a drop from either the Karka Queen or the Svanir Shaman either, at least not since the world boss updates. There have been more than a few occasions where I haven’t received one from Ulgoth either. I don’t know if it’s a bug or not though.

This has bugged me for a long time

Berelious.3290

It partly has to do with timing. If mobs have already spawned when people are running through then you don’t have to worry about champs, but when the spawn time comes (and there are set spawn times during the count down) and there are more than five players in the vicinity of the spawn point, it scales and champs will spawn.

Crafting "Backpacks"

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

If everyone really stops to think about it, aside from event back pieces we’ve never been able to “craft” them at all. The sole exceptions being what, 3 ascended back pieces? All of which are rather pricy, both for the recipe and crafting materials. Every other back piece commonly available in game is either a dungeon drop (only going up to rare) or exotics from the temples in Orr. People being able to make their own without having to do special events is a good idea. As for the skins that go with them, that’s just icing on the cake.

Precursor crafting

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

Seriously, why do people still demand this? Bite the bullet like the rest of us poor schmucks who have never had one drop and just buy the dang thing from the TP. To be perfectly honest it’s quite likely it’ll cost just as much to craft one as it is to buy it anyway, so what’s the point? If you really want to make a legendary now, save your gold, buy the precursor, and quit griping about it.

Game Updates: Wardrobe, Transmutation, Outfits

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

Quick reminder for ANet:
Fix town clothes! The tonics are horrible and I don’t believe you ran into serious issues while trying to convert them. There is no excuse for their current state.

Also, Outfits shouldn’t be the way of ANet delivering new skins. They can’t be mixed, which undermines the purpose of the wardrobe.

Three new outfits does not a trend make. Just because the latest skin was an outfit doesn’t mean they will never release a new armor skin set. Please remove tin foil hat and toss in trash bin.

The first question is where did you purchase the game from? If it was from a retail outlet they should give you a replacement since the serial code was used. If you got it from the GW2 website you’ll need to contact support.

Suggestion: Armor and Weapon Vendor/Gold Sink

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

Many may not agree, but we need more gold sinks in game. My suggestion is this, make an armor/weapon vendor in game with some of the classic GW1 armor and weapon skins (other than those already in the gem store or black lion vendor) that only sells for gold. Separate by common and elite levels, where the elite levels (such as the old Asuran, Granite Citidel, Norn, Imperial, and so on) cost more. I’m fairly certain that at least the old GW1 vets will bite.

Dueling Option - Forgotten?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

I have no problems with people wanting to duel, my problem is with people wanting to duel in PvE. An option to automatically deny any duel request will not be enough to stop the harassment that would come from having PvE dueling. The lore of the game already has gladiatorial arenas set up in LA and in the Black Citadel, or set something up in the Mists. Just keep it out of PvE!

Duel at PvE World

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

If you seriously want dueling, ask ANet to set up specific arenas either in the Mists or LA or something, but keep it out of PvE please. An auto-decline option is not enough to keep the harassment away from people who just want to play the game.

If people would take decent care of their machines DDOS wouldn’t happen.

Don’t let your machine become infected with viruses and become a zombie. And fix your Mothers machine while you’re at it, it’s probably already a zombie.

Support ISPs that block infected machines from flooding the net.

A DDoS attack has absolutely nothing to do with viruses. Basically some idiot in his mother’s basement takes it upon himself to use a program to bombard the servers with information till the server can’t handle anymore, which will cause said server to crash. There is no way to block it or prepare for it.

Outfit trend is worrying.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

Firstly, I would like to say that I don’t like the new outfit either. It’s big, bulky, flashy, everything I DON’T like, so I won’t be getting it either. However, that being said, 3 new outfits a trend does not make. I will say I wouldn’t mind seeing a few new armor sets appear as well, but either way I’m not loosing sleep over it. If they put something in the gem store, either outfit or armor, I’ll get it if I like it. Simple, convenient, effective.

Outfits

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

I have no problems with outfits in general, especially when leveling new toons. It means I don’t have to spend charges to constantly change my armor look instead of having it look piecemeal. I won’t be getting this one, but only because I don’t like the looks of it. FYI, that outfit appears in the wardrobe preview. There was no reason to data-mine it.

300 gold for a tag color is too much

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

300g is relatively easy to acquire at this stage, and given the current economic state blowing that much on a tag isn’t really all that costly. I see no problem with this.

There are plenty of PvE exclusive armor skins, it’s just that people don’t bother to go looking for them. I’m sorry, but PvP can have their new exclusive skins. I’m glad they have them, and I’ll congratulate anybody who puts the work into getting them. I won’t be one of them, I hate PvP. Good luck with those new skins!

Why is everyone so obsessed with legendary?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

For me, personally, it’s more about having something to do, something to work towards. I will say that unless they were weapons I wanted it wasn’t worth the time or effort, so I did have to pick legendaries that interested me. But after that it was more so that I had something to work for.

I’m afraid I’m with Inculpatus cedo. I’d be more inclined to do a full achievement panel if there were a final reward that meant something to me at the end. Granted, I like the fact that each achievement has an award attached to it, but that award just seems insignificant. Also, I’m not an AP farmer, I couldn’t care less what my score is, except on occasion to push for the final few points for the next tier. AP farmers might like the current system, but I’d prefer to have a more tangible and meaningful award at the end of the day.

Do you guys not notice that the The Dragon’s Reach is actually split into four episodes? Yes, according to their release page they say that the back item will change throughout parts 3 and 4. I highly doubted that he would solve the whole FoeFire curse in one episode when they’re splitting it into 4 parts.

Zojja has a different voice actress now or what? does her voiced dialogue sound different? just wondering..

Actually you don’t hear from her at all, but you get a confirmation that she will send someone to the summit. To be honest, I was more pointing out that three of the five members of Destiny’s Edge didn’t make an appearance, and I kind of miss that. My theory is that they couldn’t get a hold of the original voice actors and thus had to somehow improvise. I still hope they can get Felicia back somehow.

Where are the good looking weapons/armors?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Berelious.3290

Berelious.3290

I didn’t read every post, but in all honesty what is “good looking” is purely subjective. There are thousands of individual weapon/armor/back skins in the game, and many are available without even having to visit the gem store. Furthermore you can customize your look by mixing those skins however you want. In my opinion it’s not the lack of skins that’s the problem, it’s lack of imagination and creativity on the part of the players. If you want your toon to look good, hunt down the skins and customize your look, that’s all there is to it.

Berelious.3290

Other than buying a legendary directly from the trading post, no, there’s no way to get one without WvW participation. It’s required for map completion (which gives Gift of the Explorer) and you need 500 badges of honor for Gift of Battle, both of which require WvW. Perhaps the Gift of Battle can be purchased with badges from achievements but you still have to be at rank 14 to buy it.
