Guild Wars 2

Sir Vincent III.1286:

It seems to be coincidental to me that Chris is responsible for the Living World idea that took GW2 to a wrong direction, that is so wrong that the initial vision of the game was lost or thrown out the window.

Don’t flame me — it’s just my observation and I am more than likely wrong.

I dont know if HE was the one that decided on Living Story, it was probably a collaborative effort and decision amongst some high ups.

But, agreeing with you, Living Story in my humble opinion took GW2 into a wrong direction and ultimately away from my desire to play and spend money on the game.

The living world was fine imo, just the temporary aspect of it was a bad idea. It also wasted time and effort in development to make content that was basically scrapped gameplay wise after a period of time.

On this note, is Josh Foreman still with Anet? I hadn’t seen him around for a while and heard rumors of him not with Anet anymoar and it doesn’t say that on the wiki.

I want my kitty to stand upright.

I’ve heard rumors of this for quite some time and assumed them to be true. Hopefully they compensate us with some buffs and much needed bug fixes for things that’ve been broken since 2 years~ ago, such as Last Refuge for example.

Theres a problem with both Blinding Powder and Hidden Thief breaking stealth immediately after casting it. If you’re range attacking and cast powder the bullet will break stealth once it hits, even though you fired it before casting. Hidden Thief doesn’t stop any auto attacks after you’re using it by stealing to enemy makes you break it with melee automatically instead of just backstabbing them and makes no sense~ don’t remember if blinding powder stops auto attack chain.

I have sheath weapon bound to R and normally press it before using Blinding Powder to prevent it from failing. It’s tedious but that’s what we have to deal with. Thief has time bugs/mechanic flaws that haven’t been fixed and may never be.

Not till they add Karka pets. I’d love a Beetle too. They’re cute and shiny.

Imposing and intimidating? Well that rules out Charr quickly because they’re fluffy snuggly.

At least we’ll still get the patch before Half Life 3 is confirmed.

I did a P/P leeching venom share build for Deathmatches when they came out. It was hilariously OP on an incredible level. All my skills were venoms and entire enemy team would just instadrop, lol. The Venom Heal also instantly rezzes downed players.

Not much use though with Deathmatches not being it’s own thing, because you’re useless by yourself. :< Till they add traits to give Venoms stun breakers, cc/condi removal or other things to make an entire build of them viable in all content it’s not much use for other things. That would be a lot of traits~ maybe they should consider just adding some traits to the venoms themselves~ they’re so underwhelming alone. Would be nice if they were as viably diverse as say; meditation guardian.

Shhh, you’re not helping the situation. You’re attempting to doom everyone here and it’s rude.

I am just pointing out why it isn’t (and shouldn’t be) a priority.

If they don’t get it right now it will continue happening when they add more till we’re cluttered with far too many tokens again.

lordkrall.7241:

Doggie.3184:

Yes please, cuz you need 1k+ SW Tokens for most things and thats a lot of space.

1k tokens is 4 slots. That is not really a lot of space.

Shhh, you’re not helping the situation. You’re attempting to doom everyone here and it’s rude.

I just wanna know the specializations :<

Yes please, cuz you need 1k+ SW Tokens for most things and thats a lot of space. Geodes are basically tokens too.

There’s a rumor floating around on reddit that we will be getting a torch/focus.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2ydzfk/i_spoke_to_colin_for_45_minutes_at_the_community/

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2ydw3c/pax_east_dev_talk/

The thing that scares me the most is:

“When asked what profession’s specialization a developer was most excited for his initial response was Thief (he mains warrior and is still excited for warrior)”

I REALLY hope it’s not a torch/focus.

If Thief got mainhand Torch I would cream so hard. ;x Arsonist FTW

Actually I didn’t think about that… if we can constantly set stuff on fire, it might not be so bad…

Then again I would rather set things on fire with a great sword or a rifle.

Not to mention how insanely sexy dual wielding Rodgort/Incinerator would be. They could even give it an aoe stealth attack since we don’t already have one of those, unless you count ricochet. :P

Stealthless mobility/dodge builds are more fun to me. They can be difficult to play in PvP though, especially with PP due to it’s 1 and 2 skills lacking. It’s a great weapon for damage though, as it can currently out DPS Melee with enough ini stacking, and it’s fun to use. I love the buff to Ricochet trait in Trickery and with Invigorate Precision you heal so much.

Recently got a friend playing GW2 and he was like lvl 6 or so and wanted to show him some stuff in the Mist and Spvp but he was unable to enter till like lvl 20 or something, which really annoyed me. Of all the stuff they locked from new players, why this one?

Sad thing is the ticket craps are…. ticket scraps are almost as rare as the tickets themselves. Typo’d that but I feel backspace isn’t necessary in this case. :P

easiest thing I’ve noticed is I find t5-6 mats more often. exotics I still rarely ever find. Maybe 1-2 a month?

This game would be simply too amazing if they stole Wildstar’s housing system. :P

Still wish for more condi clear for non stealth builds. Pain Response is garbage.

I’d love Sword 2 being unnerfed back to having no cast animation. We’re too squishy and have to set it up in advanced, plus it was one of our only decent condi removers in stealthless builds.

I’d love Cluster Bomb range being unnerfed. So sick of having the worst range. They didn’t even have the decency to let us trait pistols to 1200 and gave us a random number, making us the only class with 1050 range. =/ On that note they could give Power Shots a 1200 SB range add-on considering it’s an extremely awful trait when you can just get a better dmg trait elsewhere.

4s reveal is still unnecessary in spvp and makes transitioning back and forth from it annoying and makes me want to avoid stealth builds even more. That can be reverted.

Last Refuge still needs fixed after adding reveal mechanic over 2 years ago broke it. Amazing how they avoid discussing that with us or trying to patch it.

Dyes are pretty cheap outside of the black lion limited ones. The chance of me getting one worth selling a lot is like a 1% chance so I just sell the unidentified ones I find. ;o

Just buy the colors you want.

Is it possible to get a mini of my own character?

I want a Skritt Mini that is close to the actual size of a Skritt.

Welcome, just be sure to make your character extra cute. Preferably Sylvari or Asura. You’ll get more cookies.

I want my T0 Sylvari chest piece back as a normal armor skin.

Riku.4821:

In their defense, outfits were a HUGE thing in gw1. They just implemented it late for gw2.
But I do agree skins would be nice. Full sets too, not random gloves or boots.

You could change your head piece in GW1 tho.

I have 1343 the moment on Thief and a stack in bank for Revenant. Not sure if I need more than that. 500 sp to 800 gold? I really doubt that.

weird =/

Because Warrior was designed to be easy mode, so it has to include an I Win button somewhere.

Looking forward to smacking things with Chaos Staff.

For Weapons; Thief’s Leaping Death Blossom is the worst. Body Shot comes close but at least there’s that one single moment it’s useful in wvw when you’re in a huge zerg and someones trying to run to the gate. With many classes even bad skills have use to throw out while things are on CD, but these are skills you always have on your bar and never ever touch. That is straight up awful.

Best weapon skill is Guardian’s Banish because it’s ****ing hilarious ever time I use it in PvP. Every time. Pistol Whip is also pretty amazing in PvE since you stun and evade mindless mobs.

For Healing; Healing Signet. Heal through tons of damage with no effort~ can’t really beat that.

Worst; Either Water Spirit or Blood Fiend. Heals no one uses~ I personally really hate Blood Fiend as it dies easily and offers no condi removal, I’ve always thought it needed some massive buffs.

For Utility; Best may be Smite Conditions on Guard. Drops conditions from you at a low CD, heals you and deals a lot of aoe damages. One of my fav utilities in game. Thief’s Shadowstep would be my favorite if the CD was lower, but it’s almost a must have if you don’t use stealth a lot.

Worst; All Thief Traps. They all need redesigned and their method of adding a rune set to buff them was unnecessary~ just turn those into traits so Thieves can actually be trappers without relying on runes. Even if you do use Trapper runes it’s an absolutely horrendous choice in PvE since enemies have to run over the tiny spot it places and doesn’t work well as aoe.

Elite Skills; Since this is PvE I guess I’d say the best is Fiery Greatsword since it does tons of damage from both you and 1 other player and is great for traveling. Which makes it an amazing PvP escape skill as well. Pretty much impossible to catch the ele once they pull it out.

Worst would be Mass Invisibility since it’s a pvp only skill.

That skill will never be useful, it only exist for newbies to learn about dual attacks when they finally get an offhand and see it change.

Sounds like a bug that was overlooked to me. First time I heard of the issue.

Considering that the Medium Radiant looks like it adds large supple lady breast to males I lost interest in the set so isn’t much of a concern to me how hard it is to obtain. =o

Crystal Outfit and Mail Carriers I assume.

Cutting on peoples’ wings would be mean though. :o

and it’d have to be on all wings too, so Ranger bird pets would make no sense.

zenleto.6179:

How about Winged Pigs Ears?

I want puppy/cat ear headbands

They’ll do that as soon as Pigs fly.

Since GW2 pigs don’t have wings yet the wait will surpass the 24h lifespan of the pig sale so mine as well just wait till the return of all the items during their full release.

I use this one if I need mobility
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fZAQNAqaVl0Mp8plOx7J8PNBMBxVP8ONnpMangdHAA-TZBFwACODAk2fo9hAoaZAAPAAA

And this one if I feel It’s possible to sacrifice mobility for DPS concerning team makeup
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fZAQNAqaVl0Mp8plOx7J8PNxLRs9Y4GX/avEMA-TZBFwACODAk2fo9hAoaZAAPAAA

you are able to keep up with the amount of initiative needed to make a p/p build work with these builds?

This is why I used Critical Strikes in my build~ it’s the most beneficial. You rapid crit with unload and will always get the regain the moment the CD is up and IP is pretty nice sustain naow. I throw Quick Recovery and Assassination Signet on top of it~ since PP sucks defensively and Vital Shot is wimpy, stacking tons of ini gives you the most damage and gives you the ability to drop black powder at same time. You can rotate BP and Unload at a controlled pace to shred away at Warriors and Guards 1v1 especially easily. Taking Quick Recovery also throws in Felice Grace and Vigor spam with Withdraw to make PP’s defense suck even less.

You forgot about the people who want White Wings.

Five groups. Those who want Red Wings.

My Charr needs a tail too. Oh wait. She has one! (Shows off nice furry tail to you envious tailless wonders)

Charr can get 2 tails then with it and use them to fly.

My Sylvari needs a tail of any sort.

Everyone else gets mini teq and wurm though, because the price is pretty low now. I’ve never gotten anything from them either and just bought the minis. Unfortunatly can’t do that for Ascended armor boxes but farming those in general is impossible.

So when is Tattoo chest armor skins coming out?

It’s all about that bass, and the pig has a lot of it.

Wyverne and Shirley?

HA!

Also, the most common pronunciations I have heard are “why-vern” and “wi-vern” with the second version’s first syllable similar to the word “wicked.”

I think Colin prefers the 2nd one.

What about Nintendo Wii-Vern?

Oh god, mini pets are hitting growth spurts all over. :o lol.

You’ll be okay.

Wyverne and Shirley?
