haha the rifle/bow…i did that aswell with some duels…How pointless but so fun to still win lol ;d
Haha yeah, it’s super fun, especially when it actually works xD
Trolltastic ;d, nice vid though overall,good plays.
Best possible fix for the situation, good job
No it kittening isn’t,you people all forget that not everyone is an altoholic.People playing for 3 years on 1 or 2 chars still won’t get kitten.
But let be honest… Is it SO hard to code? This is minor, and quite safe (won’t make character expode… but would be funny). I would like such change.
For some it may not be the problem, but for some it is (and it was even before Guild Wars). Friend of my during vanilla WoW Molten core raid had to use some potion that changed his body (he was playing Tauren). Some people even make fuss about how big are weapon models in FPSes).
Would it be so hard to code a “Open all” , “Use all” “Salvage all” button added to the inventory ? I’m no dev or programmer,but i doubt so seeing that most if not all mmo’s ranging from f2p to p2p usually have this basic feauture installed..we still don’t have it so don’t get your hopes on this one.
haha the rifle/bow…i did that aswell with some duels…How pointless but so fun to still win lol ;d
How will this be of effect towards vets that has been playing since day one but arn’t altoholics. The extra slot doesn’t do anything for me.I mean yeah,youve listend to feedback for once which is very nice and decided to do someting about it,but this doesn’t apply for me.Now ill still spend 50 bucks and have an extra slot i will never use.I know,you can’t please everyone,in this case im still not pleased and will still not be buying the expansion.
Hipsters,all of em.
how about if for my elite I use Rampage and transform into a juggernaut to run or catch? that would give me a good mobility for WvW if anyone decides to run or if I need to run.
If I do meet someone who wants to fight, then wouldn’t the hammer mace shield combo be too overbearing for almost any class?
Rampage is always good to use it synergizes really well with a hamm or mace set up, though you dont wanna waste a 150sec elite just to bail,and it can still go wrong,thieves can still catch up and gs warrs can still catch up quite easily aswell.You’re gonna be chased untill rampage runs out and you will probably still drop nonetheless.
Ham/mace combo is incredibly strong from an 1on1 perspectiv since you can completely lock someone down,but in wvw you’re not about to find much 1on1,it’s gank or get ganked.You can always try it nonetheless but i’d advice to run gs/hamm in wvw and use rampage as a proper elite and not to bail out.
Nice to see some rationale discourse amongst the sarcasm as I return to this thread, post Guild Halls announcements.
Charr copters, bikes… so much to dig through, even WP mentioned he’d talk about it in his video but I must have totally missed it. Where are the details about this?
Airstrikes.
Maybe these things will be NPC controlled, but it’s a first step.
Can you imagine it ? 2 full zoneblobs in SM,Lagging like crazy ( as always ) but now you’re also being bombarded by airships why you’re unable to use any skills…sounds like great fun.
Not even a screenshot available ?
Don’t use this in WvW,you lack mobility to outrun or catch up anything..If someone decides he wants to run,chance is he will get away.If a zerg pops up out of nowhere,chance is you will die.Keep hamm/mace for pvp, and rather grab Gs/hamm or mace/shield – GS for WvW.You really Need the mobility.

Never thought the words you said were true
Never thought you said just what you meant
Never knew how much I needed you
Never thought you’d leave, until you went
Morning comes and morning goes with no regret
And evening brings the memories I can’t forget
Empty rooms that echo as I climb the stairs
And empty clothes that drape and fall on empty chairs
And I wonder if you know
That I never understood
That although you said you’d go
Until you did I never thought you would.
What “community”?
All these forums have become is a cesspool of complaints with obvious agendas. “Bring back Cantha and Elona”, “Why should I have to buy this cool thing with gems” “Nerf this class because it rolled me in WvW” and on and on and on.
A-Net is a company, pure and simple. They have to make money in order to maintain the game, bring you new content, fix bugs and generally keep us amused. Gem store items are a staple of that as well as Character slots, Transfers, and Bank slots.
They gave you 3 seasons of Living World FOR FREE (some bad, some good, some great) as well as a host of QOL things.
$50 is not unreasonable to pay for a game that will guarantee at least 50 hours of content, in a day when the average console game is $60 and gives you 8 hours at best.
Just settle down:)
Why do you compare an mmo to a console game ? If so compare it to an RPG like the witcher which also has 100 – 200h worth of playing if not more with the FREE Dlc being released.Stop acting like anet is constantly giving you kitten for free,everything released is gemstore gemstore gemstore,they didnt release a proper set of gear since day one,Only Gemstore outfits cus they wanna earn money right.
this isnt true. Gear released after day 1 not tied to the cash shop: Asended gear, , truck load of back pieces, mutliple shoulder, gloves, boots and helmets. Glorious + Glorious hero armor set, Radiant Armor set, hellfire armor set, Hexed outfit, Carapace / Bio luminescent armor set, A lot of Champion weapon skins, amberite weapon set, Sunless weapon set, twilight assault weapon set, guild commendation weapon set, Ascended weapon skins, sab and winter weapon skins
to that there are also the Sovereign, aetherized weapons, dragon jade and sclerite weapon set. While they are now exclusively cash shop you could earn them in game through game play for a month or so.
So no Arenanet were never exclusively about the gem shop, they strike a balance. Not a perfect balance mind you but its definitely unfair to state they always only released new skins in the cash shop cause it is far from true.
You forget the fact that loads of ppl has spend a ton of money on the gemstore making these LS Possible,you thinking you get that kitten for free is you being ignorant.That Free is made possible due to our purchases.I feel betrayed for owning gw2,and anet forcing me to pay again for gw2 + Hot.. yes i truly see it like this.Instead of giving me the chance to buy Hot Stand-alone,if so i would have nothing to complain about.Im not the kind of guy that bends over like that.Greed gets them all in the end.
Just cause people buy stuff from the cash shop it doesnt mean the content was not free. You paid for whatever you bought not the content, simply speaking people who chose never to spend a single cent still got the same content for free which in itself makes it free.
And no arenanet didnt force you to buy the game again together with Hot, Arenanet gave it to you for free, its you who are forcing yourself to see it that way.
They are,i will not be getting another gw2 account so i won’t be getting any gw2 for free,i’m astonished how you think you get gw2 for free while in reality existing players only pay for hot,im not forcing myself to see it this way because It Is this way.Only new players will get the gw2 + Hot while existing payers simply pay for Hot.
And that’s the mistake…if you realize that existing players do not get another gw2 account so they don’t get gw2 for free and have to pay the same price for Hot alone,while new players get gw2 + Hot. They needed to seperate these 2 into a Gw2 + Hot package for new players and a Standalone Hot for existing players,simple.

You mean you want the full 50 or 100 to go directly to you right… ? I mean…isnt that what its all about…
(edited by Caedmon.6798)
Some people…just lol ;d
Youve posted the same kittening message 5x now in diff threads..Stop it already you fool.
Is it just GW1 whiners on the forums lately? They are clogging up the forums as if they are some for of god and the little people must accept their weird little world view as reality.
Why do you jump in a thread to whine about someone you think is whining ? You read a thread name and think…Oh i dont agree,i must voice my opinion about how i think theyre whining because that will solve everything ! Its kittening pointless what youre doing.Everyone has a different opinion about this Hot deal,if ppl are unhappy let em voice their opinion because they have the right to be mad,if you’re happy,go make a thread and show anet how happy u are,and if u cant comprehend why….don’t bother.
This is a bad time to be talking about coverage. When the expansion hits, there should reasonably be a pretty big population spike, which is gonna throw all the population issues into a chaos. I suggest people either transfer right now if they’re now happy, or wait until HoT comes and observe what happens before jumping to conclusions.
Or a big population drop.

WOW provides a lot more content for $50 for starters.
I don’t think there is $50 worth of content, and not providing a character slot for that is effectively a huge “kitten you” to the whole playerbase.
But the main reason I won’t be buying HOT is that I don’t think the content that’s come out in the 2.5 years since release has been any good, so I don’t really see much value in investing any more money into the game when it’s not providing content I’m interested in playing.
It’s that simple.
Since you are no longer intersted in the game. Can I have your stuff?
Can you stop asking stupid questions already ? If you can’t comprehend the idea of why people are unwilling to lay down 50 – 100$ for an xpack,so be it…But when people reply to you with Their Reasons..and your reply is ..Can i have your stuff ? That’s just pretty kitten stupid kid.
I don’t see what’s stupid about it, he said he hasn’t been intersted in gw2 content since release, so why is he playing anyway. Also I am actually being serious about wanting his stuff, I mean he is not intersted In this game at all so why let all those mats go to waste.
No,it’s the typical reply when someone says he’s not interested in this game,or willing to quit…Always some fool jumping in..Can i havez your stuffz instead of properly replying to what it is he was saying,i think it’s foolish.
He has a point though. Runes of resistance are underwhelming. Many rune sets are terrible and never used.
If Developers just buffed these terrible sets to an okay playable state, i think it would add a ton of diversity to the game. This has been on my wish list for so long. Just take one hour and go through the runes and make appropriate changes, THX!.
Come on…Ok for E.g
Im gonna run with Mace/Shield – Sword/Sword .
Block on mace 2 with a 10 sec icd ,
3 sec Block on shield with a 30 sec icd
2¼ Block on sword offhand with 15 sec icd
Just for these runes i will run 5 signets Meaning i can have 1 extra block on every signet use,which will be 5 extra blocks ( without the icd it currently has )..Not counting my weap blocks either.Eventhough 5 signet builds are pretty much pointless,you must see there’s something wrong if you’d run something like this,since signets can be traited for lower icd aswell.

People that say never to preorder are paranoid.
I’ve preordered tons of stuff and was never disappointed with any of them.
Because you have low expectations,some put that bar a bit higher.

To clarify: $50 is the price of the expansion. We included the core game as a free bonus to make it easier for new players to get into it.
No we don’t…Guild wars 2 costs 20e in my country.Hot will be 44e.The way i see it is im being forced to lay down another 20e for a game i already own adding 24e for the expansion pack…Hot is worth 24e,this doesn’t feel right to me.
The price of gw2 atm is around 20e,The xp pack will cost 40 ? That’s including the core game,so what happens is,you’re paying again for the game you already bought and owned…The expansion pack is Worth 20 – 25e,but since it adds the core game you have to pay more ? Am i getting this right… ?
If so,why am i being forced to buy something i alredy own instead of releasing the xp seperate for a lower price? This smells of greed to me.
(edited by Caedmon.6798)
Yep, feel perfectly fine actually, thanks for asking!
Turns out paying for something like an expansion to a game that was giving out free content before isn’t really hurting my wallet.
Honestly though if anything is getting on my nerves, its how close this situation was to when Burning Crusade was announced ‘price-wise’. Good news is that people will buy the expansion regardless despite their ‘almost entitled’ whining.
That “’free” content was made possible due to Gemstore purchases aswell,please stop this free,because we aint getting kitten for free.
I’m sorry but paying 100$ for an xp pack is ABSURD,completely kittening absurd in each and every way.
Are you for real ?
Happy. We’re actually in playing the game and happy – the others are just the vocal minority.
Vocal minority huh ?
Take a look at the dislikes on this vid and the comments please.
So 399 people out of how many people that actually play the game? That’s nothing.
Compared to the likes it got and seeing the responses on there you can see it’s not a good start.

Won’t be buying it unless it’s free.For several reasons
I dont play or like the pve aspect in this game anymore
They cannot fix the lag in wvw ( dont see why i should keep supporting u in this case )
Add a MOBA pvp map ( Come kittening on….Who asked for that kitten ?? )
Add some Eotm style WvW map No one asked for
Changed traits and skills around in ways unimaginable to some,breaking several builds and pushing everything to condi/range..The skill level in this game will drop to 0.
40 bucks for one map ? I dont think so.

They are asking us to pay just about the same price as the base game was on release, for a fraction of the content.
Exactly,i won’t be buying it,not just for that but mostly because they do not listen to feedback,ever..and im so dissapointed in all these skill changes and trait switches and the direction it’s going,besides theyre unable to fix the lag in WvW,add greed and i don’t see why i should buy the exp pack sadly.
Lol at rangers and guards complaining… Two most OP classes in the game whining… classic…
Yet somehow Necros STILL get nerfed to the ground even though they were already 1000 tiers below ranger and guard.
On the plus side my ele went from OP to super extra OP… so I guess that’s a plus lol.
It’s not easymode enough for em,some guards actually have to roll their face over their keyboards twice or sometimes even three times,reducing this to one faceroll only makes sense.
Seriously go play condi class in wvw. You notice that condition dmg is totally useless and need some serious buff or aoe condi removal needs some serious nerf.
Please be sarcastic.
The only dev ive only see play a warrior was Nightmare on Chaithh’s channel,he only ever run shoutbow,ive never seen him run anything else,i bet if he did he would drop in a sec.Anet has no clue what theyre doing with warr,pushing us more to bow or shoutbow,doing nothing with rifle or any other spec just shows this.
Why such a random nonsensical change to make f1 burst skill function share a cooldown between 2 different weapon skills.
Was adrenaline not nerfed enough that now if we have 1 bar back within 8 seconds or use burst mastery to preserve adren that we cant even use it anyway?
meanwhile much more ’’OP’’ mechanics in game remain untouched or even receive buffs.
Pure Disgust.
It’s the most ridiculous kitten ever,i used to be able to combo 2 bursts with burst mastery…now i can’t,it used to be one of the reasons i always ran burst masery in the first place.But now Ill just run bow and pew pew pew and blast firefields every now and then like every dipkitten no brainer out there without trying to combo anything.
There isn’t,grab your bow and run the meta train,better yet just run bow/bow !
Im surprised how you people don’t see the issue the Op is mentioning. Play a little pvp,complete some maps and you get stones ? How is this enough if the person in question likes to change gear several times a day for whatever reason it may be ? The current system is Heavily limiting these people from doing this,lots of people have world map completion aswell so there arn’t any stones to get from that,besides the few you get from pvp arn’t even worth mentioning.
Simply put,asking money for Switching gear,is wrong no matter how you put it.Then Selling them by 5 instead of 6 is just pure greed.

Sounds like a bug. It’s not supposed to work in wvw, but there are apparently ways to get it if you do it beforehand.
Well it says
Not usable in WvW, but if used prior to entering WvW it will stay active.
Which doesn’t make Any sense at all to me,if we are prohibited from using it in WvW,why does it stay active when we come from pve to wvw ?
So, what do we get from leveling? Nothing?
You get a nice aura around you and you hear a WOOSH sound. ;p
+1 thank the balance team!
Nothing is perfect (like I don’t understand why Slick Shoes even get a buff reducing cool down) but it’s a huge steps in the right direction.
Some of us here appreciate you hard work greatly. Sure there will be people complaining about OP stuffs when the patch land. Just keep tweaking it, balance patch every month, and this game will be the best!
No idea why this skill got buffed…But its a huge step in the right direction..because buffing something that doesn’t need buffing is Good ! lol
The warrior meta really is changing at quite an alarming rate with this recent buff. I think they need to slow down and listen to feedback before they proceed with any further changes.
Listen to feedback ? Bursts in laughter
Someone pls send me message if they ever reveal who was fired for this , tx
.
The guy that made the changes probably had 2 rounds of pvp with warr..on his shoutbow.
Buy some Sinister Automatic tonics,they’re cheap.Transforming you into an asuran while you’re able to do jp’s.
I’m so looking forward to see condi specs everywhere i go,mesmers spamming torment and confusion while you get 100 random stacks of bleed on you cus a thief happend to roll by you…Oh kitten yeah im so looking forward to playing with these awesome changes !!! Best patch ever Anet ! You really know how to up the skill level!
Cant help but notice some sarcasm in your post
Yea i don;t see a point in making a serious reply anyways,75% won’t agree some others always play range or condi so they love these changes and i should just “adapt”. Tbh i think this patch will be the killer for me.

I kinda agree with your point,many people have loads of transmute stones but they have been playing for a long time aswell,so switching gear doesn’t really matter for them.But when you’re stuck on 10 – 20 stones,and you’re the type that likes to change gear Alot, ( RP purpose or whatever the cause is ) Then you may have a problem.I think charging money to change the look of gear is just to milk money from people willing to spend it on the stones,this certainly show how they sell the stones by 5 instead of 6…..it’s certainly not making things easier as ive also seen when making another char.And the current price of transmute stones is just too expensive,
How exactly is it’s anets fault that your team decides to go afk when they’re close to a win ?
No bad word about condi’s unlimited stacking,but this…this hurts you,just lol.
In a pvp environment, it’s very rare to even hit the 25 bleed stack cap, so I don’t see the change affecting pvp that much, maybe burning and poison stacking intensity with poison fields from thief shortbow and engi grenades.
I can easily stack 25 bleeds on condi warr,i dont even wanna see what 3 – 4 people are able to do when they all run condi spec,and they will..all run condi spec when this patch hits.
And the Shoutbow Warrior shrugs it all off together.
And ? Your point is let’s all run shoutbow or.. ?
