We are a 67 member guild and we had the problems on friday evening and sunday evening.
Our Guild encountered massive problems since last friday. Serveral guild trek points are missing and if we try to find them on another server we can’t activate them.
On top of that a lot of time we can’t even activate guild missions and our building orders are not visible for a length of time.
I did 50+ runs and I didn’t get mini or jetpack. At this point in the event I really want it to just be over and be gone, because every time I run this dungeon I only end up disappointed and it isn’t helping that there is always the same stuff in the chest (at least for me).
At first I was excited and I liked the dungeon a lot, but now I’m just frustated with it. I got really good at the dungeon, I can solo the boss and that’s all fine, but I don’t get one sense of accomplishment from it, because at the end there is one chest and it always contains the same for me. The game doesn’t care if I’m good at something, luck is the only thing that counts.
I continue running the dungeon, weirdly thinking that RNG is something that I can overcome like difficult fights if I only try hard enough.
I like the idea of redoing hearts, but the reward has to be very good to get me playing the heart quests again, because it is tedious enough redoing it with my alts. A Precursor would be a very good reason to farm hearts ^^ It shouldn’t be to easy to get though.
But much more I like your idea of downgrading the player in the lower level zones (more than it’s done currently). I think it would be a good challenge. I wouldn’t even need the higher chance for a precursor, just higher loot chances would do the trick to get me playing the low level maps again.
If people want more progression then horizontal is enough. Things like Legendary weapons and unique skin exotics are exactly what this game needs. Instead of Ascended gear, why not completely new and unique skins? Why not add unique skins to crafting that require quests or currencies to get the recipes for? Why not add unique skins as rewards for badges of honor? Why not add cool new items like the unbreakable choir bell? These kinds of things people love to work for, especially when they can earn them by doing more of what they enjoy doing.
I agree. The lack of unique weapon and armor skins bothers me. I didn’t need ascended gear, but I wouldn’t mind working towards unique skins and items (fun items like the bell, too). Something where you actual see your progression on the char instead of just having ascended jewlery and only a stat increase, nothing really visual. I don’t care if fractals have nice rewards, thats fine, but then add new rewards to dungeon vendors, wvsw, crafting recipes, too. Give us some choices ^^
I also missing the carrion ascended items. Why are they missing? In my opinion every craftable option like carrion should be available as ascended rings, amulets and accessoires.
They added new combinations in the february updates but Carrion is still missing. I don’t understand that. Do I have to wait till end of March and hope?
I agree. The Lion’s Arch Chat is now constantly spammed with requests for fractal groups and I find myself very often on overflow-servers. It got very rare to even get to my server Lion’s Arch which makes it difficult to find server or specific language groups, to chat about other topics and so on.
The Fractal Dungeon should be removed from Lion’s Arch. Why not place it in the Lost Shore or – even better – Rata Sum. There the dungeon entrance would at least make sense.
I really like the new content. Its simply amazing. The fractal dungeon is stunning, atmosphere and graphics both, the mechanics had a lot of variety and I think I will play this very often.
The Lost Shore is very pretty. I would’ve liked it a little bit larger, but the design is cool and something different. I hope there will be some nice events and the loot drops will be adjusted, because just now the veterans never dropped anything for me. I also liked the two jumping puzzles. For monsters that have come from underwater I missed more underwater content on the island.
The events… well, they didn’t do it very much for me. Phase 1 was funny despite the lags although a little tedious and I had hoped for more help from the lions Arch citizens, but the rewards for Noll etc. was really small (I think only 1 karma bottle). I liked the story, that was good, but I had hoped for a little more meaningful reward, maybe an achievement. I experienced some minor bugs there, too, but got around it pretty quickly through overflow servers.
Phase 2. I was a little bit confused, because I thought you would need the map from Phase 1, but apparantly we didn’t. The event in Lions Arch didn’t start on our server quickly enough and I was on the island as soon as possible. It was fun to discover the shores and set up camp. But it felt a little rushed. I missed some events to fortify the camps maybe and stuff like that.
Phase 3. Yeah… the Karka Veterans stomped over me so much I lost count. I liked the event stuff with the tree and the rocks, that was good, but the reinforcement part was painful, it was too long. I realize you have to keep a one-time event long so that many players can catch up, but that was not the way to do it. I had moderate lags and 1 freeze loadscreen, but I was able to log in and finish the event, plus rewards. I really liked the big reward and I don’t understand the hate towards people which were luckier than others. I didn’t get a precursor, but I cheered for everyone who did. Only rare and exotic loot was pretty sweet. At least nobody whined about only blue and green crap.
And why did you thought it was a good idea to have free trial during such an event? Shouldn’t a trial help to experience the normal game? Set up a new character, do some of the day to day stuff?
What I miss was mostly more information from you guys. The phases were not tied together very well and we didn’t know where the event phase 3 started until the very last minute. I also missed Konsortium content. The new lost shore weapon skins are not very pretty in my opinion. Why did you not use the opportunity and give us some holiday resort items. Maybe bathing suit skins, maybe a sunshade or towel. Where were the souvenirs?
I hoped that because of the Consortium and their plans they would sell bathing suits, being that they want to make the shore a holiday paradise ^^
I want to give my thanks as well. I don’t understand all the people who are crying over the new gear. I’m looking forward to it, but I guess I will be enjoying the new island a lot more ^^
I do so hope you think of other means of progession other than gear. Maybe some new stuff for guilds?
