You, me, and a lot of people have this issue.
Whats sad is that this very bug has happened a number of times since launch.
Same and guesting won’t switch servers to be able to finish the map.
How would that shift any balance when mounts or non-combat mounts?
Because guards don’t have any single option for perma speed. 99% of the speed I use is out of combat for my guard, why am I being punished when other classes aren’t? I have to assume it’s balance related. No other reason makes sense why guards don’t have perma speed when others do. In fact if you look under “Movement speed” in the wiki, Guard isn’t even listed on the page.
It would seem to change some aspect of gameplay to give Guards something they didn’t have before.
Guardians do have skills that give speed boosts – Symbol of Swiftness (Skill 3 on Staff) – ‘Save Yourselves’ and also ‘Retreat’ all have a swiftness boon. Don’t forget swiftness stacks – so the more Guardians around, the more time you get.
You missed the ‘perma’ part. Most classes have a single skill that gives them speed. Guards for instance don’t. To keep up speed full time would take 2 skills, staff, and traited for it. That’s a huge commitment just for speed and/or sacrificing perks from runes to get speed. If you gave Guards perma speed from mount, they would have to get rebalanced.
Just logged into kill Oak out of sequence. And I feel better for it.
Speed boost mounts won’t work. Guardians, for instance, have no perma speed buff other than speed/traveler runes. To give them a perma speed mount would then shift game play ‘balance.’ I really don’t want Anet to waste time rebalancing the game for mounts with speed.
Also, I don’t want mounts in game.
I’m down from 4-6 hours a day to about the 20 minuets it takes to finish dailies.
Something that just occurred to me today is that megaservers have basically increased the minimum hardware requirements for the game.
For a year and a half I have played, at 100% best performance minimum settings, with little or infrequent graphical lag. Now every world event I go to drops me to 5 fps or less. People keep telling me it’s my fault for having an old rig, but it ran just fine until the population of world events shot up 5×.
I vote “neigh” on mounts. Get it? Neigh…lol

Working on 3rd map comp currently even though I only have 1 legendary.
You now need to have it in your wallet. So just get 200g.
My experiences with megaservers:
1 zerg so big fps drops to 1-5
2 zerg so big can’t tag champs to get credit/drop
3 more challenging/annoying to keep guild together as we do guild missions or world events from map to map
4 there is no way to differentiate which mega you are or aren’t on
There’s more I’m sure but these come to mind at the moment.
I’m in the same boat, crafted Rodgort and no pre in wardrobe.
Taking away mix and match town cloths is not something I support. A game all about dress-up and removing that is painful.
I support the OP!
The reason is that if a new player lvl 20-ish saw the pact helping defend LA it would break the flow time and story when they help create the Pact 10-20 levels later. They have basically painted themselves into a corner with the PS and nothing can enter or leave the PS. All events of the LS happen after/outside of the PS.
OK I seriously don't buy this

I just have to LOL that people think that travel time is a real issue in this game preventing Pact from helping. I can RUN my toon across the whole map few hours, oh and there are these nifty things called waypoints…just sayin’…
Sounds like you didn’t notice that you need transmute CRYSTALS for lvl 80 transmuting. Transmute STONES only work on lvl 79 and below gear.
LOL, yeah I was actually begging for a LS collection quest or something new to do between failed events.
Dodge toward the champ. He’ll follow onto his own mines.
SoS got wiped as well.
Twenty percent of nothing is—let me do the math here. Nothing into nothin’. Carry the nothin’…
