I think RNG is great, it’s a random system, so all the rare things like precursors are RARE and surprising. For all those who hate RNG what system do you think would be better?

Tokens?

I did the Tequatl fight till I got all the achievements, I would like some of those weapon skins but thanks to RNG I can do it for a year and get nothing.
If you said: look, you get 1 token if it fails, 10 if it succeeds, with ~100 tokens you can get a weapon from a vendor.
That would be a whole different story, I’d actually do it if there was something to look at.

Relying on a system that has plenty of evidence that’s broken is not a good thing.
And I don’t even have one of those “cursed” accounts, I got a precursor from Jormag once, Abyss dye, etc.

I like the idea! But think about it… Is this tokens you speak of not the equivalent of gold? For nearly everything you do in the game you get money, that money builds up, when it does you can buy one from the trading post.

Haha too funny

Some interesting views I see the problem many people say about someone playing X amount of time then someone else and gets it quicker because he/she is lucky but, RNG is not the only way to get a legendary and things you desire besides fractal weapons I think. I believe you can buy precursors or legendaries straight from the trading post, which means that you still have a goal and you will not be playing for ever without obtaining your legendary. RNG is just something that could speed things up depending on your luck. I think people need to start playing guild wars without relying on RNG.

Man… That’s a GREAT idea! Respect for creative thinking! I hope Arena Net will add those options to the game.

Thanks it’s what I love doing, creating ideas that will Benefit players and, since it’s called guild wars, I thought it would be great if arena-net involved guilds more and made more activities for them besides guild missions and I believe this could potentially be a great start

This has not happened to me, but say if my account got hacked and my characters got deleted, is there a way to get them back?

That said I think Anet has worked really hard and is producing epic content

I actually agree with OP I was suppose to play this game with my brother but he quit in the first week because he basically got hyped for a gw1 update not a new game. I was also going to quit but then I thought – 50 pounds to my wallet

Year and a bit later I enjoy gw2 much better but still miss gw1 and in a way fell deceived

From guild wars one I have wondered is there going to be a guilds hall in guild wars 2. Of course I know now that it did not happen so I have decided to get this post out there. I apologize if a post like this has been already made but I have problems with this forums search tool. That said I will now continue with this idea
With this, guilds will be able to customize a map( about the size of lions arch) with different themes, for example a winter map, fire map, under water map, sky map or better yet just a nice peaceful green land full of rabbits, bunnies and lots of dolyaks. This guild map could have a main house which could also be customized as in a castle, mansion or something like the hall of monuments.

Another great feature could be picture frames. With picture frames maybe guild leaders can upload print screens of their guild, guild leader or special event which the guild enjoyed to place on the wall of their guild house for memory sake/ decorations.This idea should give all members of the guild benefits, as players would be able to instant teleport and use the facilities available in their guild mainland, such as asura gates, merchants, crafting stations and even the mystic forge all with a cost. All in all it would be another lions arch but you will be hanging out with guild mates and friends. I also think it would be great if people could visit other peoples guild lands to look at the different styles etc( maybe all of the benefits such as crafting etc should go if your a visitor)

This is your guilds land to control, there should be as many options as possible to change the style so it does not seem like each guild looks the same or has the same features. So maybe you could keep selling new themes in the gemstone per month or so. (Halloween theme would be cool)

Since this is a guild effort, it would involve every person in the guild to contribute, kinda like making a legendary but with a hundred more people, so it should be impossible to obtain with a 4 man guild. It should involve a lot of cash, guild reputation and missions to be done to get the best of the best looking map.

This could also effect the living story, so instead of scarlet attacking lions arch, maybe she could have attacked your guilds land instead. From here who knows maybe we could start seeing some guild wars as in two guilds raid each other’s maps for rewards on their own.

Since I have noticed that all new skins start off at a low price (50g) then go up to 100 plus In the next month or two, I bought myself the love struck shield skin. I am waiting for the price to go up, I am new to this so my question to you guys is.. Would it go up or down? Why and how do you know?if you don’t understand this post please say and I will try explain my situation and question better thanks

Soloing lupi and alphard

Why not learn to solo arah without exploits, a run is about 40mins you can sell 4 spaces 8gish each, that’s 32g a run and you only get quicker

2 safe solutions my friend, learn to play the trading post or learn to solo dungeons to sell to people who need the path or tokens

No safe trading system between two players

That I don’t have to listen to non-stop WTB and WTS spam every second of every minute of every hour of every day when I head into town to take care of maintenance is a GODDANG MIRACLE of modern design.

Then Anet can make a special tab for buyers and sellers to use

I don’t understand the joke but it’s funny, uh and that mad kings laugh

Should it not be people’s right to play how they want to play? Via buying gems from the gem store to be nice

The trading system ingame at the moment is basically a trust game. Why not add the old ones from guild wars 1 but add more features such as trade karma, skill points, laurels and maybe dungeon tokens. I’m sure people have ton loads of skill points and karma they don’t mind trading for money or items

Since these are legendary weapons, is there any story to why they are? Like who owned them before? I know the risen wizard in the gates of arah event holds eternity but what’s the story? Who was he before he was dead?

No no no call it the mystic toilet because you pssss all your gold away and get beeeep back

What is the best way to obtain these important materials in 2014, now with less karma gain?

Permanent repair kit

Yes thanks for the help noobgood, I made it to phase 2 still practicing

I am in desolation EU

I have been trying to melee lupi for three days now and people say the only way to learn him is to solo, so I have been and I’m lost on how people do it. Since I only get up to phase 1 lupi and die instantly, is there any way to tell when he kicks, as in is there any pattern to look out for?

I do not think ascended armor and trinkets should have come out, exotic was just fine. I think ascended weapons should have been introduced as a teaser to get a legendary. The ascended weapons would have made the stats of legendary go up which is fine so people would have more of a reason for a legendary, rather than just skin purposes. I think the ascended weapons should have been consumables that can be rewarded from various places and activities with a 10hour limit until it fades away. But yea just wanted to get out my I thoughts.

I already have to grind karma because of that nerf, now wvw levels… Just keep adding bit by bit hoping we don’t notice, soon it would take a whole year of hard work and dedication just for one legendary

Well, it’s not supposed to be something you get in a week unless you open up your wallet and buy one.

I agree, not something you get in a week, but I don’t think it should take a year either. What about new players who will eventually go on to get a legendary, why is it fair that they have to grind 10hours more or so for their legendary because they are new? I would have probably been more happy if they done something different like made an extra quest for a legendary rather than another boring Zerg grind.

Incinerator and incinerator?

Alright thanks

How are new players going to do there map completions with no LA?

… That everyone will hang out if LA goes?

Same thing for me but it seems to happen at 7pm uk time

Not able to play, as I am stuck on loading screen zoning into lions arch until a message comes up saying error wait as few minutes before restarting.. Done 5 to 7 times now

Hey I’m in eu can I get an invite please as a student, I want to know all arah paths and melee lupi

apparently it’s just loading to LA because I have managed to log in on another character, not in LA

I can’t even log in from new patch stuck on loading screen to LA, even worse than me disconnecting a lot from before, anyone having same problem?

Thanks I have moved to desolation, hope to have fun oh and whilst i’m at it is there any guild I can join?

Hi, as we all know BG is the most active american server, all round. Good at WvW and PVE. What I would like to know is what is the most active server in Europe. What server catches your eyes, that always are the best at everything.. I am looking to transfer to an EU server

Why can’t I identify unidentified objects? why are they just junk?

Cool! Now is my time to get karma and the 500 badges I need

Spiderwick.1879:

Can you get shards outside of Ori boxes? On the wiki it says you can get them from the Cathedral of Glorious Victory for 2100 karma each.

I dont like the Ori boxes RnG.

Oh lol and I can even go in detail on what I do… Cof p1 and 2 hotw p1 se p1 ac all paths each day profit of roughly 30g including selling mats and things

You just listed off 7 dungeon runs that total 13,160 Karma PER DAY, equating to 30g PER DAY for you. To get your 300g that you claimed, you’d have to do this for 10 days, and the Karma reward for that would be 131,600 Karma, not anywhere near the 20,000 Karma you claimed.

Just tested out a dungeon, gave me no karma so you have no foundation, so that’s why I made around 300g with only 20k karma…

Really guys.. It’s a pay to play not pay monthly and you expect so much? Anyways I get where many are coming from, I just think you all need to take a break and come back in a year until the story develops more… I like the living story but I do think it’s about time to continue with personal story and thanks Anet for not taxing us to play your wonderful game

Well you get no karma from dungeon runs after talking with guildies… So yeaaa

RedStar.4218:

I’m kind of lost. How many obsidian shards do you need ? Do you craft a legendary every week ?

Second legendary and this is my last part besides the 200sps I need and 500BoH

Oh and there are other factores some
days I made up to 40gish

Oh ye.. My bad I have 13 clovers aswell

Subdue.5479:

Black Dragon.3784:

I did not mention the fact I sold all mats salvaged dungeon token armours etc

…300g in 10 dungeon runs is 30g/run. You’re not averaging 30g per run. 5g per run would already be a stretch, salvaging and selling or not.

I did not say per run I said per day
