Are you guys going to keep letting people buy Legendary weapons off the TP or make them soulbound/account bound? cuz imo it’s really dumb to the people who worked for theirs.

Inviting to Party WHILE in WvW - Problems

It is silly how you can only report people through right click especially in the guild roster… :|
The sad thing is it fails at stopping the “fix” to talking to enemies as you can just select them press “P” and click invite, though it only reveals their name if the accept the invitation.

Towers and Keeps to get weapons/tools or any sort of usable supplies with charges or fixed duration and leashed to that tower’s/keep’s location(like guild buffs). Questing through the game shows there is a variety of things that already exist.

Upgrades to allow assault squads including a supply yak(~30 supply, enough for 2 rams for a group of 5) similar to neutral areas that would attack closest enemy ground, this would help smaller groups or a single party with keeping pressure on the enemy.

And of course weekly achievements, even sPvP got them.

Delay on log outs…no brainer.

Make commander useful other than an icon..like squad finish that.

Looking for new build after EA nerf.

Scepter/Focus. It seriously annoys me seeing these dagger wielding off hand ele’s in WvW; WvW is about teams and the focus gives the best advantage you can get in WvW. Though I usually change to Staff when defending a Tower/Keep.
Set up your damage type/traits based on how YOU like to play.

They last an hour and they’re gone before you even know.

I’ve seen a couple people consistently, all day everyday, running all booster buffs in WvW now. . .

You missed this part, clearly.

Glad I could bring some amusement to you all.
Food is mainly irrelevant because the issue is balance, and you can use those buffs with the chest buffs, which is what I am seeking to point out.

The food i use currently is 3c per and it gives +80power +60 prec and pay 7s 50c for 250. Shop for your food wisely. Ty for being the first complainer with the “I’m bad” mentality though!

EDIT:Actually the person I confronted doing this is in fact from the very same guild as you!..hmm coincidence? If I may ask are you currently one who does use these buffs?

Food is considerably cheaper and much more affordable to the general player not to mention guild mates if lucky craft and give out these. You can buy 250+(way more) food/modifiers and stay under 1g; where as 1g currently gives you 102 gems a SINGLE key is 125gems or 5 for 450gems.

Okay, let’s say that both the damage +/- boosters only apply to monsters, these people using these still get passive +15% move speed which is equal to a trait slot or utility slot (actually better than some depending on class, since MS uses greatest amount and not combined) and the passive regen is equal to an extra trait slot. (Remember these don’t count as food or modifier buffs so these users can and do use those too.)
Still seems to be a unfair advantage, does it not?

Dee Jay, you must purchase keys to open said “free” chests; which are only available through the Gem Store.

or through an extremely ridiculously low drop rate.

Hmm, the guy I confronted about paying to win with these buffs was saying they do work and that I’m a fool for not doing so if I have the money to do it.

Have you tested your theory Kindeller or are you just assuming? :/

Exactly, who wants to charge at someone with such an obvious advantage over you…
Shouldn’t WvW be considered “Competitive PvP”? Thus disabling these while in a WvW map.

These boosters you get from chests clearly state removed in competitive PvP, well WvW is most certainly competitive I see world rankings~entire servers fighting to be better. Yet these buffs are allowed?

these buffs include:
+5%dmg
+15%ms
-5%dmg taken
Passive regen
That’s like an extra 4 Trait Slots, is it not?

This is different than food, because food is reasonably available to everyone, where as keys cost Gems which is either a pretty penny of in game gold or IRL money…

Thoughts/comments?
