yes, please. we need more options for the back pack slot.
at the moment there is simply not enough choices.
we should be able to craft the back piece!
Combat, Dynamic Events... what's the point if they're easy mode?

gw2 is meant to be a casual game.
it is meant to be easy.
50 way points for 100 silvers means 2silvers per waypoint.
not really worth it for short distant waypoint travelling but for long distance it is worth it.
this would be useful.
but generally topics from page 2 onwards are generally older than the one in the first page.
at the moment we only see
soulbound to character
if we are using that character.
if we put that soulbound item into the bank,
log out, log in with another character, we see
soulbound to another character
please make it
soulbound to characters name
i.e.
soulbound to Deimos Tel Arin
thank you!
hmm nah. makes no sense for them to be account wide.
character bound is ok as it is now.
would be nice but i doubt that they have the man power to do so.
maybe they can get some volunteers.
i am sure there would be many happy to do that.
well the quests have been replaced by events, meta events, dungeons, story dungeons.
and personal story.
i think we will be able to visit cantha again in gw2.
but probably just the ruins.
the actual civilization there probably long gone. destroyed by dragons perhaps.
realm forums would be nice!
at the moment people resort to the wvw forums for realm related stuff.
let us dye our weapons too by the way.
i said it before that they are useless but no one seems to care at all.
sad.
spvp is a different game. not related to wvw and pve .
perhaps due to bandwidth concerns that anet did not include in game voip for gw2.
gw2 does not have a monthly subscription.
and btw mumble is much better than ventrillo
more cosmetic aesthetic additions is always nice!
what about the other titles then?
well more options does not hurt.
so u r saying that with that star u found yourself being targeted more often than before?
i believe this will be added into the game eventually.
will probably cost gems.
it is only a matter of time
i think the current movement system is just fine.
no need for mouse movement.

“As of right now, there seems to be a lack of depth of content, goal, progressive-feel, etc.”
lack of depth of content
- are you sure? the world is quite huge to me
- the nps have lots of things to say, did you try talking to them all?
goal
- the daily and monthly achievements are a good enough goal for me
progressive-feel
- well gw2 is not about stats progression anyway
hey did u know why people these games over and over again?
- dota
- dota 2
- team fortress 2
- counter strike 1.6
- counter strike source
- counter strike global offensive
- league of legends
maybe a separate notification instead of showing up in the chat window perhaps?
well i am guessing that as time passes by, with the release of new expansions, DLCs etc there would be more and more “legendaries” added into the game.

The way hot-joining is right now.. it’s like one big grind. Everyone getting Glory might sound a good idea at first, but the problem is that it makes winning and losing even LESS important. For example I had multiple matches today where the LOSING team got much more glory than the WINNING team. Is that not a design flaw? Sure the losing team probably killed or enemies or whatever to get that score, but isn’t WINNING the match the whole point? I mean in real life, do you give bigger rewards to the sports team who lost the match but played “better” during the match?
errr no.
the point of gw2 is to have fun.
win or lose is not important.
a latency indicator showing the ping in ms would be nice!
at the moment i need to use resource monitor to check my ping.
more options is always better!
at the moment they commander only can
- make squad size of 30 players
- blue icon on map
- waypoints
thats it?
errr no.
down scaling is working as intended.
please do not fix what is not broken.
Racial skills aren’t suppose to be useful, they’re suppose to be used for fun, like you described.
but i heard silvari elite racial skill binding roots can be useful, yes?
500% magic find?
how is that even possible?
this would be a nice!
they can announce it in the official forums perhaps?

buying gold from gold seller is wrong and deserves a permanent suspension.
perhaps anet should have told us the odds first.
at least people have an idea of what they are getting into.
would be nice but i doubt anet would do this since gw2 is not really about 1 vs 1 though.
it is working as intended.
if it is not broken dun fix it.
This is a good idea. I also like how DCUO does it, once you equip the item the style is added to your style tab and you can choose that appearance at anytime to be visible regardless of stat item. I know that something like that would make transmutation stones pointless and therefore it will never happen, but I would love an appearance slot.
well anet could make it so that lots of fine transmutation stones is used in the process of “absorbing” or “saving” the skins stats etc.
exactly!
plus, this would make guild wars 2 become the first game with such an unique armor system!
Prologue:
Inspired by my original “Smart Armor System” in the original Guild Wars
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/smart-armor-system-v3-0-t10071643.htmlIdea:
- able to switch Armor Pieces / Weapons “Skins”, “Insignia” and “Runes” after “absorbing” them.Execution:
- can only change “Skins”, “Insignia” and “Runes” while not in combat.Example:
- [Insignia][V] [Skin][V] of [Rune][V]
- click on the [V] to bring down a list of “absorbed” items.Price:
- ridiculous amount of “Fine Transmutation Stones” will be required.
- perhaps 10,000 “Fine Transmutation Stone” as a “ritual fee” for the 1st time.
- maybe 250 “Fine Transmutation Stone” for each per pieces absorbed.
maybe the previous prices were too ridiculous. i leave anet to decide the price.Explanation:
- each equipment has 3 “variables” mainly “Skin”, “Insignia (Stats)” and “Runes”.
- these 3 “variables” can be freely changed after “absorbing” them.Pros:
- promotes “gotta get them all” game play.
- makes things very convenient.
- frees up inventory space.
- optional.
Cons:
- ridiculous fees.
- players will not buy anything else after getting them all.
- optional.I spent quite a lot of time in dungeon to get my body armour and transmutated my exotic into it to get the look.
Recently, i found another nice looking armour from a Karma NPC and really wanted to wear it. But to transmutate my current dungeon armour stats to it means my dungeon armor will be destroyed.
That itself became the limitation of the game, limiting the users with only 1 wearable item at a time unless he is willing to sacrifice all his hard work.
I agree with the suggestion of having a “Gotta Get Them All” concept. I like it in fact as it gives us more things to do in the game. Currently, its getting dull, I am level 80, all exotic, all accessorized with max weapons. would be really nice to see some real change in the wearable item system that promotes more activity.
e.g Current armour have a skin slot that we can slot our e.g karma vendor armor into. Anytime we can switch to that skin. That’ll be nice.
please do not blame the jumping puzzles if you do not have the ability to complete them.
there is open world pvp.
it is called World vs World.
The playerbase wants to know, why no open world pvp?
You would think that a game with 5 races, a world vs world system, an arena style pvp system, plus a down-scale leveling system would have one PvP server where you could attack mostly everybody while leveling. Many successful games have done this, and this game is lacking it in all aspects. Even if it was something really simple or basic, there should be a server where the PvE leveling has an element of PvP to it.
I think the ideal system would be a mashup of a lot of features that already exist in the game.
I know this type of server would be amazing for a lot of people. I’ve picked that style of server in many games: UO, WoW, SwToR, (I know many more have existed and I have tried many, EVE, Darkfall, even Runescape had open world pvp) and it is missing from this game. The WvW is pretty fun but I don’t want to level my character in a zergfest, I still want to quest and have to run from and kill players. The server can be extremely cut throat too, we do not care about pvp blocking progress in this server. Seriosuly ANet, why the complete lack of server style? Guild Wars 2 should of also been the ultimate open world pvp game.
Yep, I stand corrected. For whatever reason I was thinking that green weapons didn’t have an inscription. Not sure why. I used Wenslauss’ Faith and Chalice forver. I think there are still equipped on my monk to this day.
Still have no problem with this implementation. Golds as story rewards and exotics and rarer skins as something to shoot for after you have completed the story seems perfectly reasonable.
but i checked the wiki and noticed that wenslauss faith had max stats. O_O
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Wenslauss%27_Faith
Energy +10
Fire damage: 11-22 (Requires 9 Divine Favor)
Halves skill recharge of spells (Chance: 20%)
Halves casting time of spells (Chance: 10%)
Health +30
Energy +5
“Golds as story rewards and exotics and rarer skins as something to shoot for after you have completed the story seems perfectly reasonable.”
well yeah you are correct this is indeed reasonable but … but …
it would be so much nicer if it is exotics instead of rares right? XD
I believe getting a Rare weapon for beating the story mode makes perfect sense. If you’re doing it right, you completed your Personal Story shortly after hitting 80. This would be the perfect starting weapon to help you farm those Exploration modes for Exotics. I believe this is what we call “progression”.
It might not make sense for all of us that have been 80 for awhile as we’re all Exotic’d up, but future level 80s might appreciate this.
i would say future level 80s would appreciate a level 80 exotic item from the completion of the personal story quest.
Do level 80 exotics actually have some sort of advantage over level 80 rares? (Or greens or blues or whites, for that matter?)
yes only exotics have max stats
say for level 80 items, the order goes:
white –
blue –
green – masterwork
gold – rares
orange – exotics
the stats (numbers, damage, stats, defense, armor etc) of exotic are much better than rares.
This is exactly how it worked in GW. Beat a campaign, get a token of some sort, trade it to an end game vendor for a unique skin.
no. wrong. way wrong.
in the original guild wars, the “end chapter rewards weapons” are readily usable. i.e. max stats.rares in guild wars 2 are not “max stats”
just make them into exotics and there will be no further complaints.
people can use fine transmutation stones if they want other stats.
You are wrong. They had max stats for the attributes they had but they were still green and like most green weapons they had one less upgrade component than could be applied to standard rares. Also, their components could not be changed like normal rares.
They were there mostly for skins and inferior to other weapons in the game that could be created using clean, max dmg, req 9, inscribable weapon skins.
errr no you are wrong.
those weapon are max stats.
example,
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Droknar%27s_Sword
Stats
Slashing damage: 15-22 (Requires 9 Swordsmanship)
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)
Armor penetration +20% (Chance: 20%)
Health +30
sure, the stats cannot be changed.
but the damage is max i.e. 15-22
the remaining 3:
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)
Armor penetration +20% (Chance: 20%)
Health +30
cannot be changed but the numbers are maxed.
rares in guild wars 2 do not have max stats.
is it that difficult to comprehend?
it is optional. no one is forcing you.
zexion.5842I was seriously hoping crafting would let me obtain the new skins. Sadly no, you can only craft the 3 vendor skins and the price to craft them is ASTRONOMICAL.
Gift of ascalon? 250 obsidian ingots? I might as well save that for a legendary!
What are the other choices? Black lion chests. Well the drop rate of the new skins is horribly low. People have gone through 200 chests and not seen one!. To even open the chests I need the keys which can be obtained threw drops which is again LOW LOW LOW or I can (you guessed it) buy them for real cash.
I am NOT wasting all my money on 200 keys to get 1 new skin. That is outrageous.
But wait? You can buy the skins from other players! Well they cost 10g a pop.
I am not very good at making money, I also buy things with money like different sets of gear/runes/sigils for different builds. I have 2g in my name. I can’t afford a one time weapon skin for 10g. I could buy a gift formula for the legendary for 10g.
Seriously Anet? From the looks of it its just you wanting players to buy gems with their money so they can buy keys to almost having no shot at getting the new skins. Who knew for a holiday event the only efficient way to get the holiday items is to spend my cash on 200 keys?
where’s the recipies for them weapons btw?
This is exactly how it worked in GW. Beat a campaign, get a token of some sort, trade it to an end game vendor for a unique skin.
no. wrong. way wrong.
in the original guild wars, the “end chapter rewards weapons” are readily usable. i.e. max stats.
rares in guild wars 2 are not “max stats”
just make them into exotics and there will be no further complaints.

the instructions are all there in the game.
it is not anet’s fault if the players are unable comprehend.

i support this.
this certainly would be a nice change however i doubt anet would change anything.
Nox Aeterna.2965Most likely they will add more lvls , that is how you explore a set area.
Without raising the lvl cap people will find the new , tunnel + plinx so to say , and begin to farm it , leaving the other areas empty much faster.
Also , it does not matter much , can always use stone to keep the look on the new stats , which i believe Anet would want us to do so we spend the stones.
nope. new levels can be level 80 just like cursed shore.
I’m amazed that in a game with horizontal gear progression, a system like this isnt already in place. I have the max amount of bank space available, filling quickly with gear for when I want to change my build, and when I find a better look by mixing dungeon gears around… oh the pain on my inventory space. I shouldnt need Mule characters in todays MMOs
perhaps it is game-engine-ly impossibru to implement?
lore wise it should not be a problem since we all know how crafty them Ashurans can be with their magic technology.
Cynical.2097The thread is about loot. If you are not here to discuss loot, then you’ve entered the wrong thread. Please note the X in the upper right hand corner of your screen.
guild wars 2 is about skills and looks. not really about loot.
i would like more stats customization but it seems like no one cares.
anet does not care also it seems.
