Guild Wars 2

After making a few armor pieces and weapons I feel like the fun of this game is being sucked out of me.

The changes to Acrobatics honestly did nothing for survival and just made build diversity even lower.

They wont care, all they will do is what they always do and tell ya tough kitten.

there’s like a 90% chance they will, if he’s never made such a request before.

Dee Jay.2460:

I’d rather they reduce the amount of AoE on the game than add even more.

Sure wouldn’t miss getting hit with 20k dmg per second meteor storms.

Darkobra.6439:

This isn’t Diablo 2 where we need gold auras to show that we’re wearing the best gear in the game.

I wouldn’t mind having an ascended armor set that turns me into a werewolf. :o

iirc it’s on the middle floor. urgh, everyone is using LA’s bank anyway, just come to LAD

I prefer Grove bank. Less lag and loads fastah and everythings right next to eachother. You have to learn the WPs though. It’s in the center of town on map (should be like 2 or 3 WPs in center) its the one off to the left~ mid section of town. Once you understand how to reach the little town square in grove it’s the most convenient place in game. If only it had a Mystic Forge.

The WP is right next to Bank, Trading Post and Crafting areas. It’s beautiful.

Can always enter the mists then leave for access to Mystic Forge.

Ew, 2 loading screens. I heard they’re removing that MF also. :O

I’ll just put this here again.

You’re asking a question that doesn’t have an answer. :o

I said 2 before but think I’m dropping that and probably just sticking with Thief. The 5 day waiting time for one piece and tons of gold… I rather not do it a 2nd time.

Doggie.3184:

Also, almost forgot… any game without dyes and a reskinning or cosmetic slot system makes me unbearably sad. :<

So you’de be even more sadder because GW2 locks every chance of reskinning your gear behind the gemstore.

A gem store that allows in-game gold. Still have 20 something fine trannies left I bought long time ago with gold.

I’m pretty sure I did. I have no interest in Facebook whatsoever though (or twitter).
I’d rather like them on their own website. ;o

The only reason I have a facebook account was to get Tristana and her riot costume for free in LoL ages ago. ;s

A few simple things I notice pretty quickly when I play any other traditional MMOs after GW2:

1. I’m disgusted by the Trinity and my experience is totally ruined when I have to wait for than 20-30mins to get a Dungeon group, especially when it’s part of my personal storyline and I can’t continue till it’s done. This has become a major thing to me now. (actually it’s always annoyed me even before GW2) For Example: Sitting in my first Que in… a more recent MMO… for 3+ hours because no one plays healer and being unable to continue my story was a completely crushing moment to my interest to the point that I almost quit on the spot.

2. The Map usually kitten es me off. GW2’s map is so much better than everything.

3. Having to travel for decades by walking or mount instead of just WPing. Why do people ask for mounts? >.> It just wastes time.

4. Poor movement, combat and idle animations annoy me. GW2 does a great job with all of these things and with linking the moving while attacking animation, and even while jumping.

5. Invisible walls suck and jumping often sucks in other MMOs and no Jumping Puzzles. :O

6. Too Quiet. GW2 is pretty chattery in groups, map, guild and so on. It’s system also works very fast and easy and any game that doesn’t have a mail function accessible straight from the UI just sucks for that. ;o

7. Being sent all over the place by NPCs starts to get on my nerves fast. “Go kill 3 of these then talk to me again and go gather me 6 of these, come back and then kill 8 of these other things and return. Then travel halfway around the world to go be this dude’s errant boy/slave next. Then save him from these 5 enemies that keep crapping in his garden- don’t forget to bring some of their bodyparts as proof that you killed exactly 5 of them, even though there’s 900 more of them but this somehow helps save his garden and move you to the next useless errand.”

8. Having to keybind 5 hotbars of skill hotkeys… just.. ugh. ;/ Even though I wish GW2 had as many skills as the 1st, I still prefer things like this over a kajillion skills at once~ ones that you don’t really ever swap out and just do the same thing forever.

9. Worth the money? P2P games often aren’t, and F2P games are usually such awful quality. So far GW2 has been worth the money I spent regardless of it’s flaws.

10. Not enough interesting things to do beyond grinding to max lvl. If all I’m doing is killing things over and over it gets pretty bland. Map completion and achievements does a good job at fixing that.

11. No bundles or interactive environment to mess around with? Nuuuuu

12. Having to roll against others for loot…. hate, hate, hate, hate >;(

~meow.

Also, almost forgot… any game without dyes and a reskinning or cosmetic slot system makes me unbearably sad. :<

I feel bleh because of how dumbed down it’s become with build diversity, especially when you play a class that has the least builds and viable utility skills. I also can’t enjoy the type of PvP I did in GW1 (Fort Aspenwood).
I do feel like GW2 is in the GW1 Prophecies stage as I started to truly enjoy the game a lot more with Elona and Cantha expansions. The storyline feels smaller though and you have to grind levels to get through it all instead of being able to keep going.

If When Cantha is released I hope my Thief can be more Assassin and less what-is-this. I feel like pvp is kinda hopeless though. We’ll get profit from it finally soon, but I just really really really don’t enjoy capture the point. I wish they didn’t choose Jade Quarry as their foundation to build Spvp on.

Dondarrion.2748:

Ascended gear also drops, most probably by a rate which is comparable to the time and effort needed to craft it all.

It’s about as rare or rarer as getting a Precursor drop if you throw in the fact that it’ll be the stats you don’t use or want. Crafting is the only realistic way.

Arkitech.9158:

By the way, they got the suggestion for this change from a top play. A top Guardian player….. Just a heads up. Kensuda, thanks for suggesting such a pointless nerf. Still can’t believe it actually went through.

Well, they can’t let Guardian players go unhappy now can they?
I’ll remember this name as my most disliked in gaming then.

Can they be Reindeer tonics you can enter battle with like watchknight?

Need someone to upload all the things he says to youtube. :o

..in english.

They could of at least made both IS and IR remove 1 condition if they’re going to keep this nerf, since it craps all over swords already bad Cond removal. :o Not to mention less Vigor also makes sword weaker. Even the high evasion double S/D spec in Spvp was often totally wrecked by condition damage, even with the faster SR (even though you can’t use it a lot with that build), so I don’t see why not.

My cute Guardian Sylvari cuz better armor than Thief and more build diversity.
Also cuz I can load a heavy Dark Souls influence onto him.

What on earth is that keyboard and why?

And are you using both hands? I put my left hand on 1-4 and right hand on 6-9.
My keys also have those functions as secondary hotkeys, so I didn’t have to change my original hotkeys, both do the same thing.

Gotta play it like a piano. :o

Or they can make them fit better. Main thing I ask for.

But they tweaked Guardians to promote more stacking. Why you no like stacking?

I prefer using Zerker+Soldier with Executioner in PvE, SPvP & WvW. I don’t usually rely on backstab damage anymore (except for spvp), as I tend to enjoy sword more. I swap trinkets around if I need more defense to avoid having to craft multiple types of ascended armor…
Heh, I use a Zerker + Valk setup on my Guardian though, since they don’t need to have defense to have defense… I don’t think that works out as well for Thief.

I personally love newbies and find them adorable.

sierras.6297:

I want either a greatsword, an above-water spear/trident, or a rifle. Mostly the spear/trident, then rifle, then GS. Maybe even two handed torch or just main hand torch and off hand torch.

If they gave us Rifles that simply had land versions of the speargun skills~ that alone would be great.

Sounds strange… If you bought digital version you should be getting it pretty quickly. Unless you used somekinda crappy payment method~ or live outside the USA, then idk what goes on in that situation. Or your email is wrong or it’s in spam? :o

ESO is a totally different game and plays almost just as the offline do. Only thing you could really link to GW2 would be wvw. It’s kinda hard right now to tell what the game’s going to really be like on release. I found it to be fun thus far.

Something like new legendaries alone isn’t going to fill a full-length game’s role and make it compete better. o.O If that’s their aim it’d seem a bit rushed/lazy. They need to add new story, locations and so on for that. They seem to have some more interesting LS stuff prepared apparently for that~ would prefer an actual expansion at this point though. ;s

Flash.6912:

The only competition for GW2 right now is FFXIV A Realm Reborn.

Really? It feels kinda quiet and depressing when I play it compared to GW2, and the storyline is kinda tedious and loaded with fillers. >.< It’s not a bad game, not anymore. But it’s not going to compete with anything… at all. It’s just there off to the side. I do, however, wish my Thief had my Monk Artifact. -.- /sigh medium armor.
As for Wildstar, it sounded like it’d be fun, but then me and every single one of my friends lost interest when they went back on their no subscription announcement~ and even with that aside, after watching the live streams I started getting bored, which just makes that situation worse… they didn’t really show off anything new or interesting to set it apart from other mmos.

Dunno much about EQ Next, it would already appeal to my love of video game physics and my desire to break things though. .-.

Meow, guys. How do you like my fat booty naow?
I know that norn looks like he wants some of it.

Majority of GW2’s armor is definitely a major step down from GW1.
It’s one of the things that bother me the most.
Although I like the Ascended light, it’s normal fitting and doesn’t have a huge skirt.

Diviner.7405:

Your horrible music killed the video for me.

0/10

What’s wrong with it? It’s fine and it’s also awesome he didn’t use a lame dubstep song.

Doggie.3184:

I miss when I bought Spark super cheap in TP. :o

And being able to Shadowstep with less restrictions.
The Fact that S/D was actually used in WvW quite often.
A lot of things I could do pre Thief nerfs. O_o
The Way Thief Looked Like It’d Be Super Awesome Being Able To Viably Use Pistols When Trailer Came Out Before Everyone Actually Got To Play Them.
When most of my friends actually played.
Snakes.
Storyline. Personal Story finished a long time ago. Nothing added to it yet.

I chain 9k+ unloads right after one another …so probably 27k dmg in a spam of a few seconds.

Thats not viable?

No

Azure.8670:

I cant believe this thread got TWO responses from a dev but the Ranger forum itself is crying and screaming for attention and theres nothing

I don’t think they have people assigned to class forums yet. I don’t really see dev posts in any of them usually. Don’t recall ever seeing one ever in Thief. :P

I remember reading something about them having a dev that represents each of the classes in future but I could just be going insane. I’m just a dog anyways. ~meow.

I still think our first 2H Melee weapon should be a bazooka.

For some reason nearly all Anet players I see are Rangers.

I’ve been tooling around on my Ele & Necro today.

So one of the weakest classes and one of the strongest. Although I main Ele, so I know it’s fun to play, just a bit lacklustre most of the time. :/

I haven’t tried it in PvE or WvW since I trolled my ranger up in ugly heavy armor (dredge medium) and knight gear. But in Spvp my Ranger is pretty powerful .-. I use every immobilize, cc and get away skill possible and just run around in full zerker nuking people for 15k rapid fire and aoes and abusing stealth. :o

reikken.4961:

idk
p/p with ricochet and fire sigil?
bullets fly a heck of a lot faster than cluster bombs

also sword 2

It’s still a lot easier to tag people in wvw with pistol and it’s still pretty lame in small groups. I tried to make use of it for quite some time but P/P is just unnecessary in WvW as it is now.

Also SB gives you the ability to charge head first into hordes of people in a zerg v zerg w/o dying if you’re using Signet of Malice and spamming explosions.

For some reason nearly all Anet players I see are Rangers.

Poobadoo…

Come closer… Quaggan wants to lick you.

He needs to be made into a more important NPC.

Tyria wouldn’t be as pretty w/o Sylvari. And Scarlet is a Hero. She’s trying to make us stronger and lead us to Cantha and Elona.

How dare they burn puppies.

I wonder if there’s a way to kill my Mini Liadri. I’m still mad at her. :o

Naked Kasmeer was merged? With what? That sounds very awkward. :o

Coo, Quaggan likes shiny red bauble.

Thief traps being useful and doing power/crit based damage. :o
Venoms removed or changed to F2-4 and twieked. Venom utility line replaced with something else. Maybe with Thief Kits like Sniper Rifle Kit and a Kit fulla throwing items (because I like throwing things…); molitov kittentails, stolen tvs, kidnapped princesses, etc ;x

…and dual claw weapons. :o

…and adding legendary crossbow-shortbow.

Ability to steal people’s shirt and pants.

Ability to reverse pickpocket silly costumes onto people.

Anet had to nerf MTSC Assassins so they may not give us Scythes again for fear of our epic PvE reaping. :o

I’ve actually not seen a HS spam Thief in like half a year or more. Not sure how you’re finding so many. The recent sword nerfs might revive some of them since we have like.. no builds left for Spvp beyond D/D full zerker. You’re not supposed to spam HS though, only newbies doing kinky experiments do that.

I switched back to that after nerfs just to troll but eventually just stuck with doing spvp with my Warrior, since I can do my entire pvp daily without dying, regardless of who I’m facing. He has 0 weaknesses and I find it hilarious the patch didn’t touch my build.

Ho-Oh Tron for when they add mini-pet battles in Lion’s Arch?

You could always turn the slider down so everyones’ instrument is muted and when you’re bored and in LA you can request that a talented player plays a song for you. Then go through the Asura gate to one of the semi abandoned racial towns to a quiet location and turn the slider back up and enjoy the concert. Don’t forget to give them am amazing tip. Some of those instruments cost them a lot of money.

Simple answer would be that they get Sigil of Energy confused with Vigor.

Tell one of those sexy ladies what your progress on getting Twilight is.

You might get lucky.
