…when you want it, how you want it:) Not every day to job through rain, mud and melting snow in your business suit, right?;)
If I weren’t more concerned for the horse’s health and safety I would. Also I would never drive a car through horrid weather if I could avoid it, far to many idiot drivers.
I also hate suits period, so your analogy fails again.
If we forget how driving cars felt, maybe we may find riding horses is more fun?
They are infinitely more fun. More relaxing also.
A car may be an effective way to get from Point A to Point B, but not a fun way.
A horse gallops and canters, a horse will jump over obstacles, a horse will also be a second set of eyes alert for danger. A Horse is a companion…. a car is a tool.
Atleast the default finisher doesn’t lag a players computer. Not every one is playing on a high end machine. Besides i’m pretty sure you don’t want to see shiny stuff all around you when you’re fighting close to a dead player.
It could be just me, but i don’t like pointless clutter.
Here is my lovely mesmer, im new at posting pics, please be gentle. Also i need some tips or armor ideas, i am planning to change the bottoms, boots and maybe shoulders
I can’t offer much help with human fashion (I find them rather boring so never bothed x_x ) but for future reference, you can hide the UI with screen shots ;o Press shift + ctrl + H
Now then, as for myself.
Helm: Magnus Eye Patch (Right)
Shoulders: Nightmare
Boots, gloves, chest and pants: Firstborn, Tier 3 medium Sylvari
Daggers: Lovestruck
Dyes used: Midnight Ice and Cherry, Frosted for skin color
I don’t know ANY MMO games that don’t use a form of leveling as a way of progression. Not one.
There are games that have no levelling. But those are primarilly action games, and FPS… etc. The MMO that takes levelling out of it’s experience ceases to be an MMO…
well said.
Even FPS games have begun to use level progression for their multi-player actually.
While I think mesmers got the worst of it, other classes got hit as well. Go check out the other profession forums, there’s complaints everywhere as usual.
^Pretty much, there is not a single class forums that is not filled with complaints.
I’m wondering what time they plan to release the patch, I’d gladly pull an all nighter if it was 12:00, I think they released dragon bash at like 6 pm pst on previous day that it was announced it would start (but we’re @ 8:40 now, so…)
Most likely mid-day, MAYBE earlier but it’s very rarely any later then mid-day.
Necros are not ideal in PVE no, do they function perfectly well however? Yes they do, and most pugs (that I have run with anyways) won’t give a kitten if you are condi necro. Can’t comment on power necro, as I don’t enjoy it myself.
In PvP/WvW I condi necro to be the most enjoyable of the classes. You can’t escape with a kitten , but your goal is to not have to.
Why don’t you re-roll to a thief and reap the benefits of this OP class?
Because people who aren’t complete simpletons find mind numbingly easy things boring as hell? Maybe some people actually play to have fun, pull off insane skillshots, learn their class inside and out, have ACTUAL competition decided by skill instead of poorly designed gimmicks put in to make morons feel capable in pvp and don’t play just to find the path of least resistance, drool on their keyboard for an hour, and then feel like a “winner”. Why do you even play? They could just put a rock in heart of the mists that you slam your face into and get a “YOU WIN!” message and that would be about the depth you’re looking for in a game.
So if it’s so simple, shouldn’t it be just as simple for you to counter?
So here’s the situation, I’ve been practicing thief in sPVP since I’m refraining from leveling her till the 15th, but I’m terrible. So, does anyone have any thief videos of sPVP and WvW they would recommend?
OH I guess I just suck – you’ve all convinced me that Im the prob and necro is WONDERFUL. I guess when the next person kicks me or blasts me in wvw Ill just send them here. Ill spend another 500 g on another set of ascended armor and retool my build for the 40th time and see if I can achieve the awesomeness that you all describe. I must just be incredibly DUMB after 9 years playing pvp/wvw with advanced titles . I must not know wtf I’m doing or talking about. Sorry everyone. Ill just do a reset. Anet must have thought this out carefully, and obviously all of you have figured something else I didn’t.
This post makes it painfully obvious what the obstacle you can’t get past is.
We could make the new trading system like it was in the older mmos, where you open a store in the capital with your character, and players can walk through the capital and shop, that way is much more immersive. And the chat was much more populated with the sellers posting their stuff every sec.
I thought they confirmed in the livestream that city exploration would continue to grant a transmutation charge (which is what three of the lesser stones will become after the patch).
They did indeed, so basically there is zero reason to rush it.
I am saying that He-Man was introduced as it is.
GW morphed into Battlestar Galactica, that is the difference
Except for the fact that it didn’t become Battlestar Galactica. That’s like me saying that you want it to go back to being Peter Pan vs. My Little Ponies.
If that is what you call it, yes i want it back.
Everything is better than Stormtroopers vs Borgs like the Aetherblades
You’re making some preeeeeeetty massive leaps for your arguments here.
There actually is counter to stealth, its is called knowledge.
There is no counter to stealth, it’s the best damage mitigator in the game and only two classes have access to it (with one having crazy amounts of access to it). Ridiculous.
Thief, ranger, mesmer, any class with a norn as race.
Heard engi does as well, but I have no knowledge of them personally.
Norn looks better if you’re not moving but the animations are awful. Also depends on what you’re doing, if you’re doing pvp or wvw dont pick norn. The big guys always die first .
You kidding? The animations are great.
RUNNING however, that makes norn look so much slower then they are.
Almost any other class can be run down and finished off, but thief can’t in most cases. Yes, much of it is a L2P issue, but I think thieves rely on stealth too much.
Warriors can pretty much outrun anything, those guys can fly off like Usain Bolt when they want to disengage or just decide that they don’t want a fight.
Thieves rely too much on their class specialty? You don’t say…. This is just all amounting to far too much Qew Qew from an inexperienced player.
Roll a thief, learn how it works and you’ll soon learn and understand counters for it.
Qew Qew is good! Who taught you that one?
Anyway, if a thief pops up in a 20-man zerg, quickly tries to dispatch a a player and fails? Well then he can just stealth + tele and gtfo of there in the blink of an eye, 95% of the time. Name one other class that can do that.
Thieves are the most annoying class in the game, and I’m pretty sure most people agree on that. No one want’s to be harassed, but that’s basically the core of thief game-play, and it’s encouraged with the range of downright annoying abilities at their disposal. That’s why people hate thieves; it’s the ultimate troll class, and it kittenes people the kitten off to the point where they feel the need to rage and/or shout for stealth nerfs.
Why do you think there are so many people complaining? Are they just all horrible, inexperienced players?
I get kittened at thieves who stomp me in a crowd of 8 or more of my allies and tele away without death; 1v1 deaths to thieves are mostly not the issue.
I find PU mesmers infinitely more annoying then thieves.
for god sake please let this not to be true.
Aetherblades have no space in GW2. I hope they are gone forever.
And before someone asks…. Space ships and laser guns have no place in a fantasy game.
If i want to play Borgs i play Star Trek
sigh we’ve been over this, yes they do. Everything in GW2 is magi-tech, that is, technology that relies 100% on magic. The only exception being charr technology which is clearly inferior. The tech in GW2 is the logical result of a world with true magic.
Maybe they picked the wrong person for the video but that looks like the person is staring at some sort of radar screen 90+% of the time.
I never got far in Allods (felt very boring and uninspired, no idea if it gets better later) but iirc that’s from the point of view of the navigator. Others would be manning cannons and such.
I don’t think it’ll work in this game any time soon, though a multiplayer game designed purely to be skyship battles with different players manning different stations no doubt would draw a good sized following.
I’d sell my leg and left arm for a Skies of Arcadia MMO.
To be honest, this is nothing new. It’s very common for games (at least in regards to MMOs) to offer more stuff to more recent buyers. Why? Because it makes a crap load of sense for profits.
You deemed it worth the value initially, you made the choice.
After 5+ level 80 characters, leveling bores me, yes. But I do want to experience each of the Professions. Can you tell me how to do that without leveling?
sPVP
I guess you didn’t read my post 7 spots up from yours (end of first paragraph). I am die-hard PvE. And I guess I shouldn’t have said “experience”… I want an actual level 80 character of each profession. Not just temporarily leveled for the “experience” of it. I want to do level 80 PvE events.
Again, sPVP. You’ll be able to level up in there after the patch on the 15th IIRC.
They are numerous ways to level in this game quickly.

Finished my Sylvari thief’s look finally. However, keeping her at level 12 so I can see the changes on the 15th from that point of view and so I don’t need to buy a second LS dagger x_x But other then that, Ciara Celestina is ready. Now if only I could dye the green stem of the desert rose…….
Unfortunately, any characters that were created prior to the changes on the 15th will use the current design for traits and leveling. You would need to delete and remake the character after the patch is live to experience the changes made to leveling for new characters. I did the same thing you have done (new character outfitted and ready for the new experience) when this fact was brought to my attention. Our new lowbie is basically reserving the character name and soulbound skin unlocks for when we remake after the change goes into effect to then be able to experience the new changes.
Oh no, I meant in regards to the mega server since it is initially only for lowbie zones.
