were you here in the halloween cash grab? theres you answer if this is the most controversial update.

to answer you i think the most awful thing is you dont get any title for completing this. and thats what i find sad.. very sad.

Halloween cash grab? I don’t remember this. I remember the trick-or-treat bags, the clocktower, the events etc.. But can’t think of any cash grabs

Dont you remember the UNIQUE skins that were inside BLC some ppl opened about 300-500 chest buying BLK and got nothing, they after the kittenstorm they added in the MF a way to create another kind of BLC called MKC (mad king chest) people still got nothing and swear under the 6 gods they wouldnt spend more gems in game?

the thread with over 1k rants, its all in the archives bro.

BrunoBRS.5178:

beating liadri should give you a “gauntlet’s champion” title, for bragging rights. the mini is cool, but until ANet makes minis an equippable item instead of a collectible, they won’t catch on.

exactly my point.

After so many tries i managed to beat Liadri and got enough achievements to get the chest from the queens gauntlet.

Oddly enough it doesnt feel as much as an accomplishment it is just like bitter acomplishment and im here to discuss MY point of view, if someone else agrees, good but mostly this is my biased opinion about this event and i will try to discuss it in a civilized way.

I wont start at Liadri mostly because it has probably been discussed in 60% of this thread but i will rant about the reward of the queens gauntlet.

Arenanet i want to say im truly displeased about the reward in this case Exotic bag of loot when the event started i rushed into the achievement panel to see how would be called the tittle of THE GAUNTLET a 1 time event ina living story, a place where you beat a CHALLENGING content in order to be the “RISING SUPER STAR” as the announcer says.

after i managed to beat every achievement necessary to get the 11/11 i got the exotic bag of loot i was kinda surprised what would i get after doing such challenging content and what do i get? SPOILER INSIDE BB CODE WONT WORK FOR SOME REASON [spoiler] 2 gold coins

really?… i mean, really? After beating 11/11 of you challenging content i get2 dungeon runs? in rewards .

why not Rising Super Star tittle? or King of the Gauntler tittle? such an amazing opportunity to give a tittle and i think most people would prefer a tittle rather some gold coins [/spoiler]. END OF SPOILER

is like i never participated in this event (except for the Liadri mini that proves it).

Lambros Augustus.6594:

We have dailies as a baseline of doing something daily. We have alts to enjoy more loot and we should get more loot. I have 8 toons in 8 professions I would like to use them with full rewards on tokens, gold and anything else that is rewarding.

pretty much this, theres no reason At this moment to play an alt since almost everything is soulbounded and progression in wvwvw is toon bounded, then we have the reward system (token) account bounded as well.

Solution, pick the FOTM profession stick to it roll in gold instead of enjoying playing with alts.

Make THE GAUNTLET INSTANCED up to 5 people in Queue why do i have to pray i dont have a zerg underneath me so i can tackle a boss that requires top notch reaction skills when i have a delay there?

why do i need to play when everybody is asleep so i can finally beat a boss?

this just seem like lazy programming and lazy implementation of an event.

Tbh it should give a title as well.

GrandmaFunk.3052:

Denial Of Service.5732:

whats the point anymore to have an alt?

Enjoying different class and build options, as well as developing new characters.

your problem isn’t that alts are useless, it’s just that they’re less useful as a tool to farm specific things repeatedly.

which, btw, isn’t what they’re meant for anyway.

if i worked hard to lvl up an alt why im not allowed to profit from it?

Arsenic Touch.7960:

It’s kind of funny, they charge real money for character slots and do their very best to pretty much give you no reason to make any more characters. I thought it was getting bad when I stopped playing but holy shtako they went full blown this time.

lets not talk about Cash shop items being soul-bounded.

Theres no reason anymore to play with an alt im still struggling with the soul-bound system and i also leveled Alts so i could get more tokens and now its just impossible to do that anymore.

i ran HOTW and got 60 tokens did it again in an ALT and got only 20 what the… ANet?

you are just crippling players with ALTs. whats the point anymore to have an alt?

goldenwing.8473:

I also alt swap for my guild’s needs. Have been doing so for over a decade, often using 2 to 4 accounts through different games to play 2 or 3 at a time.

44 alts here in GW2, 12 at 80 (all but one of those 80s in full exotics), running fractals, have ascended, celestial and laurel gear scattered across a 3-4 “mains”, as well as explorable badge gear for looks on a couple. Oh, and a couple of 80’s that have some karma gear for specific builds.

I have respecced at least 3 of my 80’s and regeared them accordingly (from the ground up). And no, I don’t run CoFp1 farm loops… never have.

I find the balance of soulbound and account bound gear to be fairly reasonable in this game.

And yes, at age 56 I have a life. Some of it is “retired”. A lot of it is not. Thank you for asking.

PS: I’ve chosen one character to WvW with, and yes, there are some changes I’d like to see there.

cool story bro.

As an Alt addicted player i like to have different toons for different situations, if the team needs a Mesmer i can just switch to my mesmer toon if they need a guardian i can switch to a guardian who doesnt like to switch play styles sometimes?

my major gripe with this is that it is a major time sink to build them for what is needed and you need to build every toon and of course you cant just trade weapons or armors between them because they are soulbounded.

to be honest, the soul bound is a lazy time sink, that way you keep people stuck in the grinding treadmill for their toons.

what if i my build was nerfed why i need to grind every token-gold-karma out there so i can rebuild myself instead of swapping with another toon.

the Account bound is an amazing well designed anti-account steal system, since it cannot be traded to another account.

nonetheless the soulbound system in my humble opinion is a bad implemented design.

PLEASE!!! show me a chart where it proves that theory i have put a lot of effort and money on this game too

Considering how you post and spell, I doubt you’d understand any chart I give you.

Oh right because i dont speak MURICAN good? come on i know 3 languages im allowed to not type properly sometimes.

i did voted for Kiel

Spoken like a Kiel supporter.

Nobody should care about the dumb RP reasons for voting for a generic Mary Sue white woman.

They should care about the content they deliver.

And hers is crap.

The slim minority of players who spend more time and money on this game are embittered because the slim majority made a dumb decision and this will have an effect on their relationship with the game in the future.

And the game will have no choice but to deal with that.

Denial Of Service.5732:

It may sound like a controversial thread, i did voted for Kiel but that doesnt mean i (or the huge majority of the voters) went "hurr hurr kitten kitten BOOBs1!1!1

It means WE as a majority selected what we tought would be the most fittest character to that position and thats what voting means, the majority selects a leader.

i can assure you people voted for kiel mainly because Evon looked to shady and corrupted, (sounded like every politician IRL).

i think the votes went because Lore not rewards lets get real you only voted for Evon because a fractal that gives you memory of gw1 not because Evon so stop acting kitten because Kiel won because people voted for Kiel because they LIKED her.

Your simple-mindedness shows you to be a child; as if any Kiel voter had a reason more legitimate than those who supported Evon- i would wager a lot more of Kiel’s supporters voted for MUCH shallower reasons than supports of Evon did. Congratulations on your victory, shame you have to be so sour in spite of it.

Who are you to judge people according to their decisions? for me you are the child in this thread, i voted for her because i liked her as a character and as a leader and THATS my decision gladly the majority decision as well.

stop judging people as simple-minded because they dont share your POV, i feel sorry for you TBH.

Juclesia Elcritian.8410:

Hope hangs on champion loot fixing people’s motivation to do that world boss along with others. As it stands, it’s far too time-consuming and difficult for the lousy 2 rares reward it gives. Can easily do at least 3 other world bosses in that time.

Nah the problem is that the camps don’t STAY held like Temples do.

I was in the one by the Queen we had just cleared back out after killing the Queen 90 seconds ago, and I got exactly 30 second in which to look through that Merch’s Settler’s gear before it went right back into contested again and next thing I know there’s 30 crazed Karka’s rolling right over us again. ….Who’s bright Idea was that one? You’d have to really HATE your players as a Dungeon Master to ever pull some kitten move like that in most RPG games. And here’s the one billed more as “Casual friendly / No grind” than any other …. haha good joke.

_

…as for Servers that do it daily…
NSP almost always does it around 7pm PST…. give or take 20-30 minutes. B/c That’s all dependent on how quick we get through Balthazar right before that. So if you wanna catch it at night, then you have to show up in Malchor’s & Straights and look for all the Commander Tags and follow them till they’re done with Balthazar & Eye. Then they immediately all move to Southsun after that. So you’d need to be able to set aside a whole hour for a guaranteed clear. Anyone who can’t set aside an hour and let another group do all the work for them, should probably keep that to themselves b/c they’d just sound entitled as all hell if that was still too much of a burdern for them

And if you’re not an experienced player…
… who doesn’t know exactly where to stand every few minutes, then stay out of our way please. The LAST THING we need is a bunch of ranged Zerker idiots standing right on top of the NPC escort or our Mid/Backline support attracting aggro and shadowsteps & Poisonblobs right to the last place we could possibly want it. …if you’re melee, that’s different, feel free to jump in, YOLO like it’s 4th of July b/c atleast we know you’re doing decent damage and keeping the mobs busy where we want them kept.

Dude… Chill, enjoy the game.

Im jumping in the bandwagon ive tried so much to not admit it but can we nerf the thieves already? i mean come on you even admit it this class is just so annoying you can evade everything deal decent amount of damage and run away so easy thats not even funny.

this might seem like rant but i cant express how annoying it is to be 3 shotted from nowhere and not be able to retaliate.

to be honest its bulls…..

Welcome BACK wili i came to from a 5 monthkittenus gladly i could complete the 3 living stories taht are running up atm

you have 5 days to get yourself 1 Kiel mini, 1 Evon Mini and a Permanent Quarts node for the living stories rewards

as you can see some UI have been remodeled and they look sick

tbh i came back like 4 days ago but im falling in love again with the game

My guild have almost everything bought in the upgrades, i bought a server transfer and i lost everything in my guild i have no upgrades and no influence.

what happened?

Tom Gore.4035:

Or then he already claimed his 100 points chest and just didn’t notice it and now has to wait until tomorrow to get his 500 points chest.

probably lets wait till tomorrow then .. thanks both of you tyvm! =D

Tribio.8531:

Denial Of Service.5732:

i have 2429 AP and i didnt see a chest when i logged in

When you check your achievement panel, what’s the first chest in the list on top?

the 500 AP then the 1000 AP nonetheless the 1.500, 2.000 dont appear highlighted even that i have

more than that =/

i have… 2.429 AP i think its more than 100

i have 2429 AP and i didnt see a chest when i logged in

I recently came back and i would like to claim my reward chest but i dont know where to =( btw what does it mean by retroactive reward?

i have 2429 AP

you will be lvl 24 in a lvl 80 zone.

this was done by a guy about 5 months ago he went from lvl 1 (never accepted first exp reward) and ran directly to Orr avoiding every WP
=P

I stopped playing when Ascended gear kicked in

I was a very Hardcore gamer but i felt cheated by Anet, came back to the forums to see whats going on but i only read the same old post (wich are somewhat true) about whats going on.

but, why you guys keep playing? and.

whats new?

Reserved for upcoming walll of text
Number 6 [WIP] but i think its enough for now.

feedback and constructive criticism and toughts are welcomed.

4- End Game.
I know the game its new and this wont be about Orr farming and Legendaries.
Its about something that this game its mostly about “looks”, I love the concept of this game, and the reason I mostly play its to make my toon look better , give them personality just by looking at them, but I think there is a very discouraging range of looks in this game.

Heavy armors are all bulky and mostly dull looking when I started doing dungeons my first one was CoF I didn’t like how it looked BUT! The flame indeed was a nice touch, then I went with AC and when I got my chest plate I couldn’t wait until it was night, then…

nothing happened and I understood that the only dungeon armor that really have a theme its CoF that is indeed very discouraging, when a game isn’t about stats but looks I still had to “farm” the dungeon for the stats I wanted but literally didn’t have something else that drove me with a mindset of “ I WANT THAT ARMOR”.

At the end I was going for stats not looks same its with medium armor, every medium armor it’s a rehashed look of the next one and its very discouraging in game to go for stats mostly because every set looks like the same.

The other problem its that some “skins” are yet to be discovered in the MyF but (see point 2) miscommunication at its best, most people don’t want to gather an absurd amount of matts just to see how it looks like the weapon to be discovered.

Possible solution: major overhaul in the skin system, and focusing in new skins, don’t get me wrong this doesn’t mean you should release a dungeon every week for new skins, just making them better looking and unique from each other, give us a wide variety to like or hate some skins.

We got people here that are conservative and don’t like skimpy armor and we got some people that like them, make the world richer and some diversity with it.

5- World vs World.
World vs World needs some serious tweeks most people have commented in switching the outmanned buff for the orb of power buff and that I think it’s a great idea, it encourages people for some sick gameplay instead of.

“Well we are losing for about 120 points, meh lets go to PvE and wait for week to end”

It stops camp spawn wich I didn’t enjoy by the way, I couldn’t even get 4 feets from borderland and it encourages people to keep playing and succeeding.

5.5- World Transfer
Yesterday I experienced something really bad, there was this guy in the JP wich clearly its from a guild from another server (since no one from the enemies attacked him and he had the same guild tag of the enemies) spying people in JP even one of them got mixed in /m that was intended to be in /g revealing location of zergs and what our commander was planning to do.
I don’t say this doesn’t happen in my server but im pretty sure it happens to, but its clearly cheating and griefing.

Solution: incoming 7days world transfer wich I think its amazing

Solution number2: give us the feature to report for griefing

2- Communication.
There is a severe lack of communication between the Mods, Devs and the community itself rarely we get a red response and when we get it its very impersonal and brief making us feel alienated or secluded.

I know that internet can make people ugly and mean but we got some (and I dare to say the majority) people here that would really love to interact with your team and know what’s going on about the game, about content and feedback, we got here intelligent people with awesome skills in math (im not one of them) who are sick of theory crafting and why not share some knowledge?.

Your motto (along the lines) its “grow with the community” but where are you reds?
In a MINOR scale I know that interacting with a majority of people can be mind numbing as a guild leader with less than 30 people I sometimes want to run away and play the game without being asked about silly things but I can’t do that, it’s my job to let my guild know how it’s going to be directed and get some feedback along the way.
I will take for example something that happened not long ago.

The Magic Find and chest drop, that was the most amazing red response I’ve seen so far, it was hearth warming and refreshing, since that response I’ve seen less and less complaints about people running full MF for dungeons, less conspiracy theories and less theory crafters about best percentage of MF for chest.
What can we learn about that?

Communication its they key to gain your community trust and their hearts I won’t say the game but I come from a community where reds taunts and play with their community we have our beloved, our hated and our nerf master.
Give us people to love, to hate and laugh but give us personality not pre-generated brief responses.

3- sPvP/tPvP.
I can’t address the points better than this guy, here is the source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvXDv70-6Gg&feature=youtu.be

Its a bit of a rant video nonetheless we can learn about it and grow, I think the competitive scene wont be seen in a long time until more and more people get what they want in PvE but for the hardcore and competitive e-sport scenario its very discouraging.

Welcome to this thread, first ot all let me say that my english its average but i will try to keep it clean to address several things that in my PoV are breaking the game.

I’m the same guy that made the 600+hrs review, and mostly was positive feedback and constructive criticism, this said, I deeply care about this game, ive never felt this good playing an MMO nonetheless there are certain things that I (and several people) thinks its breaking the gameplay and ripping apart the community.

Please don’t post here about botting/hacking/Exploits this thread its meant to be clean and hear everyone’s opinions or this will be closed by a mod.

TL;DR: there is not a TL;DR in this thread instead you can ctrl+F (at least in chrome and firefox) to locate the points I will address and their current state (in my PoV).

1- Economy.
2- Communication.
3- sPvP/tPvP.
4- End Game.
5- World vs World.
5.5- World Transfer
6- Mixed direction of “grind system” [WIP]

short words
PoV = Point of View.
TP= Trading Post.
sPvP= structured player vs Player.
tPvP= tournament Player vs Player.
Dev= developer.
Mod= moderator.
MF= magic find.
MyF= mystic forge.
JP= Jumping Puzzle.
Begins here

1- Economy.
In my PoV this is mostly what is driving away people every day, in fact whenever I see someone asking for help in how to make money, most answer or at least the more accepted answer its “play the TP”.

Whenever I read that I feel bad for both the one who got that reply and the one that said that, the problem about current state of economy in gw2 its that one of the “best way” to acquire gold its staying 24/7 refreshing the TP and playing the market, I can assure (or at least I hope) this was never intended by the dev team, I mean look at how HUGE it’s the world it encourages exploring, finding hidden jumping puzzles, killing mobs in order to gain better experience, its incredible, nonetheless we get people to encourages other people to stay put in one place watching the TP (or running 3rd party programs) in order to get gold, and they are not trolling, indeed it works, but its this how game was intended to be played?

Ive been thinking and don’t get me wrong but what it comes to my mind it’s a silly game I played years ago called “Runescape” ok!, put down your pitchforks and let me explain, that games had something called “Grand Exchange”.

Extracted from RS wikia:
Prices are partly governed by the Laws of Supply and Demand:
? If an item is in high demand with low supply, then its price will increase.
? If an item is in low demand with high supply, then its price will decrease.
? If an item’s demand matches its supply, then its price will stay the same.
? Jagex has never published the Grand Exchange’s exact pricing algorithms, although there are some reasonable guesses. By using the laws of supply and demand, the prices of items are updated depending on its recently traded prices and volume. For items with low volume such as partyhats, their prices update every few days or even once a week. Jagex can also intervene and set the prices themselves, and they reserve the right to intervene when they believe price manipulation is occurring on an inexcusable scale.
? Because of an update on 1 February 2011, there are no longer trade restrictions, however there are guide prices and buttons to increase or decrease your offer on the item by 5%, as well as set a custom offer.

As you can see there was a trade restriction, but what can we learn about that, jagex somewhat did that in order to stop market manipulation and scams in-game if we take this by example and make It better.

Why not an steady range of price for example globs of ecto plasm.
Let’s say they are in a range price of 18s to 24s
If I try to buy the 18s ectoplasm I will be in a Queue to be a buyer but if I go let’s say for the 22s ectoplasm I will be in a Queue as well but lower.

As a hardcore player i second this, even for me it gets mind numbing, dont get me wrong I like to farm, nonetheless i get punished for doing it.

doesnt make sense honestly.

if I as hardcore gamer get frustrated I feel bad for casual gamers =/.

Rfreak.6591:

@Wilhelmryan.9203

You are obviously lyin, simply because if you played those classes enough you wouldn’t be saying this, now I want proof, a screen with your amount of matches won as a mesmer/warrior and your pvp rank, else I won’t believe you.

@GlockworK.2954

When I play a thief I do a number of actions that, tactically speaking, other classes would never EVER do:

-being able to kill in 5-6 hits most non-tank built players with no risk, as I get free hits while engaging stealthed
-rushing into unaware groups of players fighting just to score an F-finish stealthed
-travelling half the map stealthed timing my utilities skills (yes I use the heal too, c’mon you telling me you don’t burn it for the stealth when you feel the need? seriously?)
-trick my opponents in following me while I stealth and get past their backs to capture the point

Now these actions, would be crazy to consider while playing any other class, as it has no real cost on a thief and you can keep running all the way as you wish, while playing on any other class would mean pretty sure death.

This pretty much sums what the first poster wanted to discuss.

^ This

You got my point instead of “trolling” like the guy above you who won as Mesmer against 5-8 people since his whole team was afk >_>…. ….

Let me clarify that i recently played a Thief in sPvP just see why so much people complain about them, i went for the most glass cannon build possible and I can see why people complain about them.

First when I started doing sPvP i found a little absurd getting 2-3shotted by thieves, but I know they are the squishiest ones so I went further in Ranks and I understood how to “beat” them in their own game, nonetheless…

Stealth mechanic its my own gripe its the out of jail free card everyone would love to have, its funny how i went in took 1 down, finished him and still got time to escape.

whats the main problem I mostly see with thieves in PvP? its the Lowest Risk, Highest Reward profession with so many escape abilities mostly by stealth its what makes them the #1 QQ in forums its not their ability to burst down.

let me explain, you can run into a group of enemies, burst down their squishiest profession and escape stealthed, with a CD that its a joke just rinse and repeat, you dont even need tactic to play a thief (honestly) just go in roll your face in keyboard if it doesnt go well just stealth and escape, if you get ganked just stealth and escape if someone is handing your … down, stealth and escape.

it was indeed very funny how they started to argue about how thieves can burst down so fast, yes they can, like they can be bursted down as well, but the mechanic of stealth its pretty much broken giving a “second chance” with a really low CD, making you untargetable along the way.

what i do propose its give stealth mechanic a draw back.

-You move half your speed while stealthed (for example)
- You are in-combat while stealthed (that means no regeneration, no skill switching, move speed in combat)

you can be traced by condition damage, for example if you are bleeding you leave a blood trail.

To me, Stealth mechanic its pretty broken since there is no way to counter it

Inb4: “AoE damage” have luck in a 3D environment guessing in your 400 AoE range where the thieve is, while he is recharging initiative to try to burst you down yet again while your CDs are on.

i hate this game im forced to play it, im forced to do something that its an achievement thats not required to enjoy the game !>=F .. … … … /sarcasm.

Hmm, prior to looking at your previous posts, I’d say Charr Engineer.

go!.

;)

BEST HOLYDAY EVAAAAAAAH!!!! i love you guys keep making such an awesome job.

@KuroKanden:

let me break maths for you

(counting madking says, and hoping your team has a good dps and knows basics things as dont break scarecrows and fight in bot floor if everybody stays and dont fall he doesnt go back to mid).

1st day: 100 MK runs, lets say a smooth run in MK its 10minutes =

1000/60 = 16.6hrs of game play

2nd day= 70*10= 700/60 = 11.1hrs of gameplay

3rd day= another 16hrs of gameplay.
sums up over: 40+ hrs of gameplay in one dungeon.

that means that still you could have got squat if we go to the pure essence of what RNG means, but some randomg guy 3 runs= the mad moon + the crossing + arachnophobia.

think outside the box dude, you are just digging your own grave with that mindset.

First of all let me say that this event is/was AWESOME!! Anet did an amazing work with this event taking care of every little detail, many things were perfect and i couldnt be more happy, BUT!.

theres always a but.

This game as far as i know have something called prestige over power, am i right? but this is not entirely true, its more like “luck over prestige, over power”

why?

i ran almost 40 MK runs heck i even read people who ran almost 100 runs.

what i got? deathly shoulder pad skins (i dont complain they are pretty cool) but some people got squat, its true this skins are meant to be “rare” or may i say unique, but giving the luck factor i think its pretty dumb to say it gives prestige over those who were there and got nothing.

some people got their exotic halloween themed weapon in less than 5 runs, some are up to theirs 100+ runs hoping to get one.

this is where i say, i support grindind over luck factor, i rather run 40 mk dungeons if that gets me WHAT I WANT, instead of some random roll dice that decides what i get.

get my point?

lets say those who were lucky this event may not be in the next one, lets say you love a skin from the next event but you see yourself running 100+ a dungeon with tiny hope to get the item you want and you might not get it after all.

for those who support this system of lady luck, please think outside the box, would not o you love to work for what you want instead of a random roll dice that may award you or may not in the next 1000 tries?.

on a side note: i always tought that RNG its a lazy concept.

anyone from tarnished coast would like to trade with me his spot?

pretty plz im into the RP feature and Tarnished Coast its where most RPers gathers and when i read this:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Free-World-Transfers-Limited-to-Once-Every-7-Days/first#post579275

i was in shock!!

pretty plz?

so i dare to state that probably the halloween themed weapons have a 2% drop rate … D=

It truly fascinates me the fact that people can get really lucky.

ive never been a lucky guy when it comes to RNG but i always try to overcome that fact giving more effort when its about getting something.

i dont know if this thread have already been done but i would love to keep a track how many runs people have did and what items have got.

Atm this is my run number 36.

so far.

-Random blc boosters
-Blc gathering tools mostly sickles and logging axes
- 1 blc salvage kit
- 1 exotic (rampager speargun lvl 76)
- 1 superior recipe of the mad king.

your drops?

theres no need in an in-depth psychology analisis here.

People DONT LIKE to fail, so, if you fail you gonna keep trying until you succed because its our nature to “get better and compete” this time we arent competing with someone else but with ourselves si in that case its mostly a “i have to beat this”

i spent 7+ hours doing JP and when i completed it i didnt care anymore for the reward, there was a personal satisfaction by doing that i cant explain.

sorry for bad english.

well i can totally tell you have not joined a decent tournament, try PuG a tournamente with your “burst meta” and see how you miserably fail against a balanced team.

WvWvW its a zerg fest if you join the sheeps, try joining a party that focused on “ninja take” objectives and see how fun it is.

sPvP atm its a TvT (thieves vs thieves) because its the “omgah huge numbahs” but i ask you again in wich rank are you?

i have friends in the R20+ and they tell me they see thieves once in a while wich are good because they already knows how to counter the DPS-bust meta, heck im even at R12 and long time i dont see a War-Bullrush+frenzy.

i would love to say, learn 2 play but that would be really mean, i rather say… keep playing, change the meta, dont be a tool.

i dont get your point Galandil…

ive run 16 times first 4th run got my exotic and im having a blast here so..

i guess you want 100G and 10 pre-cursors for chest

let me add that i have almost infinite supply of booster for every alt.

Look, as you can see in my previous post im not a fanboy, nor a white knight i make sure to let Anet know when they have done wrong.

this event its GREAT.

-Its true they over hyped us for the 1 time event that its only a CS.

-If you want you can do mad king for yourself but its great they made it a party system because it encourages people to play together.

mobs dont overrun you unless you make a mistake doing the emote system
and reward its ok not strongly game breaking nor white trash.

you can loot chest almost all day, so … why you complain for?

3 manned him as well me as a banner war, 1 thief, 1 ele

it was SICK!! +1 to Anet

So…

after almost 600+ hours of gameplay my first exotic drop was in the labyrinth you know IT WAS FUN!, Anet ive running endless hours with no MF, 100%mf, 150%mF, 200%MF , 235% MF and that was my first exotic EVER!.

this is an emergency call, people for the first time had fun with drops, it felt… rewarding, at some extent, its true it was “economy breaking” but more than bots running 24/ 7 in well known places almost laughing at our reports and our faces?

it think you should readjust your toughts about how this game should be played, because when a player with this many hours only got his first exotic in a “broken event” you are truly doing something wrong.
