The My story tab kinda the same thing as the Eotn story journal (well you cant turn it in for anything but i never cared much about that part
honestly to me PvE is the best part about this game /i loved GW1 more for its PvP then the PvE
I would like if the mobs stood out more from each other (like fighting a bandit should feel different from fighting a drake)
Pft tin foil hat is for elderberries. styrofoam hat=best hat!
Ok they going to ignore Teq/scarlett and her many alliance/karka/icebrood/Remaning risen on Land/flame leagion/centars/nightmare court/inquest/bandits/ascalon ghost/branded(and any other things attacking where people live) and mordy (who already weaken their biggest advantage (the airships) to go clear a huge area of hidden bone ship fleets? /makes sense
GW1 was human based story trading with cantha and elona made sense in a human dominated world. this isnt the same way in GW2 people prolly dont wanna amit it but it dosnt make any sense for the non human races to even wanna go to/trade with cantha/elona. with the Pact being multiracial alliance this would prolly be a reaaaallly low on their todo list xD
The thing is a few ships hiding in the sea would be the least of Tyria’s problems they dont need to trade with Cantha/Elona at the moment.i mean only humans was trading with them in the 1st place(1 of 5 races!) the other races would gain/lose nothing /or simply dont care (keep in mind the Pact isnt a human only group)
(Really why would you go out looking for something when your being attacked right on your front porch? (and no im not going list every problem the races have to deal with if you played the game you should know!)
And zhaithan isnt just a mortal protecting its life/kingdom/family
it likely has seen many nation/kingdoms come and go (basically its not going to think like a mortal but more like a overconfident deity)
(about the destroyer thing)
Wasnt it implied the Destroyers was using the Central transfer Chamber to get to the surface faster? (Kinda why taking back the CTC became so important in Eotn)
otherwise they would be digging for a looonnng time xD)
(a gate wouldnt need to be that close to the G.O.L.E.M site just closer then where ever the CTC was. and to add to that there was Asura Gates in some REALLY random spots /ravens point!)
You can actullally jump onto ledges taller then your character (somehow!) if you back up and move forward after jumping (unless there is a invisible wall)
(i do it all the time without speed boost)
Considering the Gods created the Desolation+Crystal desert just fighting one of their own.
id imagine a Gods vs Dragons fight would leave Tyria in a unlivable Ruin no matter who won the fight
(leaving prolly was the best option for the humans to have a future)
I would like to be able to dye weapons again like in GW1 (even if only a part of the weapon is dyeable )
also i want necro vabbian armor! (i would even take that as a outfit!)
i kinda took the lack of risen archers as maybe Vizier Khilbron took most of Orr’s military for himself (although risen wizard could have had a dual profession in life)
IMO if sylvari are not being corrupted but instead being mind controlled. its possible they are simply taping into abilities they already have with mordy giving them a magic boost
this is hard to tell in the end it kinda sits in game mechanics almost(i remember in GW1 the afflicted was not always consistent when it came to profession of the person they was in life)
All the other races had more important problems of there own that is very apparent ingame (as shown in LW S2)
not even counting all the problems LA was dealing with (The one city that would gain most from it( assuming cantha/elona are willing to trade/not hostile ) and all that was before mordy attacked!
They wouldnt really had time /or a good reason with the timeline we have
Zhaitan’s death>clearing Arah>clearing Orr mainland>dealing with Teq>preparing to attack Kralkatorrik (prolly taking most of the pacts resources)and getting attacked by Mordy all in a 2 year+ span!
Actually we never found out what became of The Ministry of Purity (it didnt end with Reiko’s death) if you read the NPC chatter in that quest they actually may have gained a new Leader!
i remember it being said in the PS that Zhaitan learned everything its victims knew when they was corrupted so in theory it could learn the tyrian language and talk directly to the PC/Pact(in a non telepathic way) but it choose not to (like we could hear it Roar across the other side of orr xD)
I just pretend my revenant was a heavy armor /good with a sword noble studying about the Mist/echos pre Rytlock XD (it kinda works because Marjory didnt see the Turai Ossa echo as something unheard of)
My theory is Humans didnt have alot of magic till they started to live in orr.
i believe it was the Gods who (found out later) that they was incompatible with Tyria’s magic (would explain why they guarded the Blood Stone and part of why they decided to leave)
honestly after all the GW1 stuff proved as false/lies i cant blame people for taking the “Historians may lie!” approach.
(although i dont count the white mantle thing because seem like many krytans didnt believe that.making it a known lie at its time)
I think SB should stay as it is still needs to be completable for new level 16-17 players.(who have limited access to abilities at that point)
theres plenty of other bosses that can be reworked (i rather see new stuff tho)
I think its a (well done) attention to detail thing to show how the Pact fleet was pulled down. (basically a origin of all those vines up above)
I have noticed more male norn/human then female humans when im out playing/dungeons/open world (although humans are popular so you gonna see alot of them in general)
Fort Trinity is like literally being at Zhaithan front porch /already to late
also we prolly only got rid of the navy fleet around Orr. it would take time for a fleets to
sail from as far as Ring of fire and beyond (and why bother when you have hordes of dragon champs flying around?)
(also to add Trahearne did imply that zhaithan’s fleet has to physically sail from place to place /meaning no teleport HAX)
I think Zhaitan would be too overconfident to call all its navy back (it prolly saw the Pact&PC as ants till the last minute. Witch would be to late to call back a ocean fleet at that point.
I kinda of like it that way it makes the NPCs stand out more.(seem more like a rank thing to me) i notice many low rank(Initiate) Whispers NPCs dont have full sets
and the CM armor used to be given from a Seraph NPC in old LA
i guess the new LA (random) NPC kinda messed that up xD
i honestly dont think armor needs a description if it comes from a fitting NPC/Area/Town
IMO I think if it just comes up in a normal map chat conversation nothing should be done.
but is someone actually just throwing spoilers in map chat out of context repeatedly it should be considered spam/abuse (If someone is using whisper/mail to send only spoilers its basically is abuse/spam)
That is true but the way the HoT into looked. the pact had no problem shooting into Verdant Brink (poor frogs)
In the time it would take to burn down the whole Maguuma jungle mordy could prolly grow 10 new bodies. (look how devastating The Searing was and it still didint kill all the plant life in ascalon) /although kinda make you wonder why didnt the Pact use a Searing Cauldron like in orr XD)
This means Risen are also weak fire! /golem bombs,lazers,body burning,ghost fire!
I have to say its kinda odd the Human Gods was hording magic items in Arah.
makes me think they may have been consuming magic in some way .
(Maybe they left because they would have messed up the balance of tyria magic levels.) And would kinda explain why they would be so mad at Abaddon for the bloodstone fiasco."
There was so many of those things on that island. i wouldn’t be surprised if their numbers grew!
I still wonder what happen to all the Moss Scarabs in the Maguuma Jungle.
I simply dont let people cyber bully me (because in the end words can only hurt you if you let them!) but i do agree /block should do more.
Should rename it to Flare XD /i did also notice the projectile is speedier
It would be odd if there was no interspecies relationships in places like Lions Arch.
when NPC chatter in the older LA imply there was attraction to other species!
(like the line about sylvari/norn dancers from a human npc)
With HoT happening right after LW S2 its kinda odd for our chars
to forget about such a important weapon to me. (also should Rox still have it?)
If GW1 halloween quest are canon. then the Nameless Lich had the black wings!
Going by the definition of “elite” the name fits IMO “superior to the rest” having access to weapons/new profession mechanics is something normal specs lack. I think the use of elite here is just to compare it to normal specs (not make your profession elite/better)
IMO main hand sword to me feels like a (High skill=just to make it work) kinda weapon.
I think Guild Wars could work as a mini series. (as a new story between one of the games/books)
The Pale Tree is fully aware of how Scarlet ended up that way.
It would be abit strange if she started treating her children differently
becuse of it.(Treating the 2nd born differently would make them more likely join Nightmare Court/become Morderm)
In my opinion based on Jennah Anise and Kasmeer Mesmers seem to be the most powerful. Although in a low magic level Tyria i think Ritualists and Necromancers would be really powerful
I believe shouts are simply what they appear to be and always work because of game play.
in a way this is kinda like asking why rangers never run out of arrows/axes.
Really if gw1 game mechanics was taken as lore. that would mean Grub Lance somehow
learned to become monks in a monastery XD
I have to add 250 years ago a ranger (Keiran Thackeray) became a paragon.
so to me it isnt a big stretch for a ranger to learn more spells (my ranger already shoot lightning from her hands and summon water springs!) and signets are magical
(even gw1 rangers had thos)
I kinda thought they’re names (like Distorted Facet of) was a good enough explanation.
Maybe the Facets in the The Path to Revelations quest in eotn are hints to the true nature of the gods power?
