Solo Q needs major rework/ ideas to fix it.

in PvP

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

If you’re a GW1 fan, then you may have noticed soloQ is pretty much GW2’s RA, except the mmr system tries to soften the level gap between players.

In GW1 you had nothing like this and could land with wammos or x/R with level 8 pets in your team 24/24.

It’s not perfect but it certainly soften the issue.

Agreed, this system would have been amazing in Random Arenas.

Improving Condition Damage (Suggest/Discuss)

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

Condition damage isn’t used because the “big numbers” aren’t shown with direct damage, it’s the fact how any stack applied after 25 is ignored and because of that condition damage is utterly broken and useless in PvE.

This problem has been pointed out several times, but apparently ArenaNet refuses to fix it.

That looks like the WvWvW servers are about to change and where everyone from WvWvW is kicked and send to Lion’s arch, but since Lions Arch was destroyed everyone is sent there instead. That’s why there are several commanders and hundreds of players.

No.

All AI was affected, so the patch sums it up pretty well.

creature
? Use Creature in a sentence
crea·ture
[kree-cher] Show IPA
noun
1. an animal, especially a nonhuman: the creatures of the woods and fields; a creature from outer space.
2. anything created, whether animate or inanimate.

From: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/creature?s=t

So anything created from a player, their damage is fixed.

I think they used the proper English for this and no more explanation is needed.

Is it possible to lvl up in pvp?

Chase.8415

What is the best way to lvl up in your opinion guys? I am playing as a Mesmer and i play my Ranger alot too , i am a pvp guy to PVE makes me bored after a few hours!

If you don’t like PvE, simply don’t level. There is no reason to level past 12 in PvP.

Why? i just started GW2 , not alot of knowledge!

Because all stats are normalized in PvP, so there’s no reason to level other than unlocking grandmaster traits, which are arguably worse than the current traits.

Yes, if you do any of the region based tracks, you’ll get about 4 Tomes of Knowledge, which grants a level (per tome). It’s not exactly an effective way to level up, as it would take a casual player about roughly 1 week to complete a reward track. So 4 levels a week would take you nearly 5 months to get a level 80.

This game’s loot/rewards have sucked since beta. And there’s no end in sight. I’m all for rare stuff, but it’s pretty ridiculous that the only real method of farming is TPvP.

TPVP does not provide nearly enough loot compared to PvE. It would take a casual player about 1 week to complete a reward track, and the best you can get from that is about 1 dragonite ore, 1 star and 2-3 mystic clovers with perhaps 2-3 rares.

Its always fun to see them play minion mancers or mesmer, as the tag is from the Guild they are in so it duplicates the tag to all AI summoned by the player.

What I don’t understand is how GM’s do not have a tag in chat at all, and in some cases you have absolutely no indication its a GM. One time I got whispered by a GM, didn’t even bother using proper English or grammar asking me if I was a bot, basically threatening me if I farm near bots I would get banned.

So I explained that I wouldn’t get banned and all of a sudden an invisible character forms infront of me… would help if they had some type of indication they are GMS.

Destroyer scythe?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

Yeah I saw it as well, when going through the staff skins. Tried searching for it on the TP and it couldn’t find it. Looking at the wiki page isn’t any help either. Doesn’t tell where to get it, and the info there (“Double-click to consume. Double-click to apply this look to any other staff.”) may or may not be true. I kinda want to get the skins, but don’t know where to look for it. Wonder if this is going to be another Final Rest (where it supposedly was "a bugged drop).

It’s not really a staff.

Well, same goes for Lawless armor.

Yet on the skin itself it says staff under the scythe part. Also Final Rest doesn’t look like a staff it looks like a scythe depending on the angles you look at it from.

There’s all sorts of stuff that look like something else.

Well there is an actual Scythe skin. We just can’t get it anymore (other than paying really high price for it on the TP).

I think gw2database tells you how, but it’s blocked under my work filter as “gaming” so I can’t tell.

And at the same time, thousands of players may enjoy the char version of a cook. Especially when Char is a much more violent race, so it makes sense.

You’re the only one whos complained about it, so I guess you wont be buying a cook outfit.

Is there any point in killing players?

In hotjoins the incentive to kill is low because no one defend points, and its very easy to score 20 points by backcapping empty bases.

Bug with Rankup Chests

in PvP

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

The rank up chests function like daily chests, where if you swap characters you cannoy open them on another character.

The reward track chests function like tournament chests, where swapping characters you can open them instead of having to worry about submitting to a bank.

Is there some sort of technical limitation on this? Why are the rank up chests not function the same as the reward chests.

Stop Rewarding trash

in PvP

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

the biggest thing i think sucks is that the loot is based on your characters level,
get a chest on your 80? you might get exotics, i’ve even had an ascended ring,
get a chest on an alt? you’ll get a bunch of low level garbage.

do we really need to level all of our alts up to 80 in order to get decent rewards if we play them?
or even if we can open the chests on our 80 it still means we need to jump through the hoops of zoning and relogging multiple times to pass it over, loading screens, loading screens, loading screens.

You can either let the chests stack on the bottom right and open them later on your 80, or deposit them to your bank and open them all at once.

If they were to charge for private maps there would be a huge uproar from the community on how ArenaNet purposely broke the game with MegaServers just to sell private maps in the gemshop as a solution.

People are being over-dramatic of the actual issue, sort of like what happened when fractals came out and how swamp fractal was impossible for pugs.

No Anet word since last LS final chapter

in Living World

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

Some people enjoy raiding. And it beats the 20 minutes of fluff content released by ANet on a biweekly basis, which is quickly taken away.

Do you really want more LS, OP? Even though it’s so disappointing and banal?

Isn’kitten bit ironic that you claim that those people are allowed to enjoy raiding but in the same post seems to imply that no one can enjoy the LS?

I just don’t see what there is to enjoy about LS? Wasn’t one of the LS story arcs like a 5 minute conversation between two characters?

Typically it would take the average player about roughly 1 week to complete all of the living story content.

Or maybe when other MMOs release some thing. It is actually some thing substantial.

You mean like another raid tier where it erases all of your progress from the previous patch and you have to start the grind all over again?

What is "Unique" About Ceremonial Weapons?

in PvP

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

I’ve stated this elsewhere. It seems the word “unique” means something different to Anet than it does to everyone else. [insert Inigo Montoya meme here]

The ONLY unique skin we get is the backpack and even that was sellable on the TP so you didn’t even have to PvP for it.

The backpack being a sellable skin was a bug, but that has been fixed.

Legendaries with PvP-like sigil selection

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

While its a good suggestion, unfortunately it would affect the economy and ArenaNet is really serious about it. They even refused to award gold to PvP players who played before the patch for economic issues.

While changing stats could affect the economy, changing sigils would be worse as many of them are several gold a piece.

I get dishonored for changing my character!

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

Why should their servers do this then? I have not physically raged or DC’d from a match, that has resulted me not been able to join again in the last 2 months.

This just happened, as appears to be the luck of the draw! I’m currently PvEing which I hate!

Plus the timer was still counting down before the tournament even started!

Then swapping characters is not what caused it. I have swapped characters several times mid match and never got dishonored.

Also this debuff clearly states only you are restricted from rated matches. You can still hot join, stop being overdramatic.

You have to be crazy to think 10 second block on an auto attack from an interrupt on a chaos field is balanced.

Recent upd. ruined experience of the game: Transmut. Charges

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

I think I saw a 100 gems for about 9+ gold. One transmutation is 150 gems, so around 15 gold I estimated, my math is probably off, I was ball parking it.
Regardless, she used to be able to have a set of city clothes she could wear and then her adventure gear, not anymore, and now each time she would want to switch something it would cost her money. Do I have that right?

No. Its exactly the same as it was before, the skin is saved directly to the item. If you enuquip that item, you can always equip it back as the skin is saved.

There is absolutely no difference.

Recent upd. ruined experience of the game: Transmut. Charges

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

Actually it would cost you 3 gold per transmutation charge that’s if you buy the lowest bulk amount. 2 gold and 22 silver if you buy them at the best value.

Best way to earn charges is PvP, you get about 4 of them a reward track.

Also the skin is applied directly to the item, this is no different than the transmutation stones.

Transmutation charges are actually CHEAPER than the stones, so if anything it costs less.

What is it that you are confused about? Where did you get 15 gold for a pair of gloves?

So about that language filter update...

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Chase.8415

Chase.8415

As discussed in other topics, before MegaServers it was considered taboo to speak another language anyway and it all languages were separated in other servers. The only time you got a chance to speak to other servers was when MegaServer was introduced, and a large majority complained how they saw other languages and thats the reasoning for this hotfix

The best solution for you is to change your native game clients language and the problem will be solved.
