i LOVE keg brawl, i mean its my favorite minigame (southsun survival comes really close but its just too fustrating and too many cheaters who hide with ration bags ruin it)
but keg brawl is instantly fun EVERY time i play it, true it took some time to get used to the controls, and it doesnt have its own uniqe rewards (which is a problem EVERYWHERE in this game) but i laugh and clap my hands with excitment when i play keg brawl
now crab toss…..that one is awful
the new “prosperity” color dye is the best by far….its more expensive buuuuut thats cuz its the best
Invasions anyone?
or r u saying these would invade the world……hmmm u rly cuda been more clear =p
u forgot the most important one, new weapons and new weapon skills
lets worry about the paragon dervish and ritualist before we suggest new classes ok….?
i hated how gw1 capped at 20 it made me feel no sense of progress at all in my personal character, i do wish for less zerging in gw2 tho and more strategic enemies (ones that dont have giant health bars that take 100 ppl to widdle down)
i am still enjoying gw2 but i hope the expansions move away from zergish “giant boss” content
Invasions anyone?
u mean scarlet’s invasions? those are fairly random i guess but on way too big a scale
I am very familiar with that game you mentioned and how/why they had such events for gathering. Basically it was to try and stop bots. I am not sure it would work here or would be wanted. It wouldn’t be for bots here, it just seems like you want some sort of new event types for gathering nodes.
If you want events go do events, I think most people just farming nodes would not want this idea implemented. However some people just gathering as they go along might. Apart from that your rewards are far too similar to certain items that other game gives for other activities. Now if you had suggested that game’s version of treasure hunts (clues) I would of course supported 100%! :P
i think that the people who gather exclusivley are a very small percentage and considering that only one of these can exist on any map at any time they only lose ONE node per run (at most, they would probally lose nothing) so they are not worth considering. and the rewards dont need to be too unique, its a throwback for sure.
but yea i too would love clue scrolls in gw2 =)
bawhumpity bump bump
your right this is a huge problem and anet needs to fix it if they want their game to survive
the cooldowns on tougher monsters (champions mostly) needs to be raised, this goes for peices of artillery too (i hate u catapults!)
this would be wonderful, my mind is immediatley drawn to the realm of torment from gw1, lets go to places like that!
but dont make them all areas inside portals i want some bizarre areas on the map
i think it sounds like a huge time investment by anet but i do think its essential for mini pets to get a “buff” of sorts
…..i would settle for (and be thrilled with) a unique tab that would let me withdraw and use my minipets from anywhere and an UPDATE TO THE SPEED OF MINIPETS that would keep them with me when i run! that is super important anet! they are annoyingly slow right now!
im gana bump this cuz i really like the idea and i want people to get in on it
…why do they have to be equal? they dont, pick one, or pick both, but dont complain that they arnt equal because life isnt fair
thats no problem at all those 2 small islands can be combined into 1 big area
its not a bad idea but i like my minimap expanded into that spot and is it really neccisary? i mean u only use nourishment like once every 30 minutes not once every 2 minutes, and u can just hover ur mouse over ur buff for a second to see time reamining, just seems lazy
I like the idea but like everyone else I don’t think it would work in practice.
I go to the North West corner of Bloodtide Coast to mine gold ore and I often see the Champion Deep Sea Shark event active when I get there. I’ll always call it out in /map as I arrive and 9 times out of 10 by the time I’ve finished my circuit of all the nodes in the area (5+ depending on node locations) no one has shown up or even responded.
The only time I’ve seen more than 3 people turn up was when I happened to be on the main Desolation map between two wurm attempts, there were a lot of people waiting to try again with not much to do in between.
these are the types of updates that need to happen to get people out of queensdale (that and increase the cooldown on champions)
relax i am 100% confident we will get one its barely been a year ad we already have rumors about the tengu
if its done for unjustifiable or malignent reasons then yes you can
I like the idea if the servers were populated enough. Sadly they are not.
Most Champion level events go undone in areas outside of Queensdale and Frostgorge due to lack of participation in those areas on the majority of servers.
Ideally they should randomize most events, including world boss spawns along with their locations.
i think the unique rewards (combined with my sincere hope that the champ trains will get nerfed soon because they are killing this game) will be enough to get people into these areas and exploring!
i think there would even be people hunting these events intentionally for the unique rewards
give me my kitten plasma phenix anet……ooooh and a frost wurm that burrows next to you while you run
hell yea! i would love more active skills rather than just crafting! fishing on its own might not have a full purpose though it would need to be combined with hunting and be a part of that
many of you will recognize the phrase “random events” from runescape, and the idea is much the same here. there are alot of things runescape did that i think gw2 should do (since i beleive anything jagex did anet can do better). for those of you who dont know though the idea is simple, performing simple actions results in unexpected (and very infrequent) events that yeild unusual rewards.
for example: lets say you go to mine some ore and instead when you go to hit the rock you get no ore and a champion rock elemental rises up from the stones, triggering a group event where you have to kill it. as a reward you (and anyone else who participated enough to get a drop from it) will get some unusual ore or minerals
there would be 3 kinds of rock elemental (depending on the level of the area your in, tin, coal, and primordium which each drop the respected ore. you also have a chance of getting one of several unusually shaped rocks that each builds into a peice of heavy armor when crafted.
there are rules: once the event is activated that particular mining node cant be mined by anyone till the champion is dead and only one of these events can exist in any zone at a time.
and picture the same thing for trees, except its a tree spirit champion, the armor you craft from it is bark (medium) and its rewards include a nature amulet (which comes in all levels and has a chance of making any tree you chop down spread seeds and instantly grow 3 new temporary tree nodes around you. and also new rare woad wood weapons
the plant equivlent would be a man eating plant who drops peices to craft a leaf suit of armor (light) and a strange fruit that gives you unlimited endurance for 2 minutes aswell as health regen and swiftness
do not compare/ confuse living story with expansio packs, real expansion packs will come but make no mistake a person who plays 0 hours does not have the right to anything in game, at all….ever
u dont play, i dont care, end of discussion
Why do people think LA will be rebuilt?

im sure it will be rebuilt, but hopefully not EXACTLY the same that would feel corny to me
Why are Chyper Chests rapidly removed ?
in Battle for Lion’s Arch - Aftermath
Posted by: Duke Nukem.6783
its not a big deal….so u didnt get to open a few chests let it alone, next time you can play it safe and ASSUME that content might be removed, its a good life lesson for u and others
They need to add more permanent content, “events” that come and go is getting old and frankly a cop out to real content, add more please.
this is not true at all, each event leaves something permenant behind and id rather have a new boardgame every day that i cant take home with me than get to take one boardgame home with me and keep it forever and ever
i hate empty worlds and the dam champion zergs in queensdale that cause them,
lots of events go un done and lots of high levels in orr struggle with skill points they cant complete because theirs a champion sitting infront of you that you cant possibly solo
raise the cooldowns on champions! kill the zerg!
Keep in mind that Season 1 of the Living Story is ending soon. So it is quite possible (maybe even likely?) that we will see most if not all of the LS-store items coming back for a short while.
they CANNOT release the dye sets a mere month after just releasing them….i mean they cant be that dumb
these skins are too nich for the common player i cant see myself weilding one (even if u give it to me free) and i dont expect anybody else wanting one either for their character id say spend your money elsewhere
no the flame and frost dyes ( and all rare dyes from those scam boxes) are now WORTHLESS consume confidence in them is DESTROYED because of anet randomly selling flame and frost dyes on that weekend sale , the prices will never again rise do not bother just buy rare skins instead
thats hilarious, i dont buy silly weapon skins only fairly serious ones so it might be a waist of itme for anet to make it
but i would be happy to buy a bunch and hoard them in my bank until the rest of u pay out the nose for them….
i LOVE black repair canisters
and all boosters except strength armor and magic find r pretty useless
but above all i HATE mystery tonics i dispose of them instantly….maybe if they just had more monsters in them? or more uses?
its only going to be around a few more weeks and i doubt ur gana spend 100% of ur time on lornar’s pass so get over it
bsids u could just …..NOT be in lornar’s pass 5 minutes before the thing dies, just leave when the event starts
i must say when i was in the bar going through each individual clue was the first time i was really into whatever shes planning and i actually cared about the mystery and got a sense of ominous feelings for whatever her next move is
really looking forward to more
no it should be removed,
but yea anet mods r a joke with how often they remove threads….
or maybe make it a little easier because obviously the real problem is the content not the people playing it?
i can think of nothing more fustrating than having 1 skillpoint left for map completion and NOT BEING ABLE TO DO IT because you put a champion at the skillpoint instead of a veteran
this is not fun, this is not clever, this is not “challengeing” its sit and wait for other players to show up
anet stop finding ways to remind us that your game is underpopulated
all champions at skillpoints should be removed and replaced with veterans
and dont say “oooh just play with friends” theres a million reasons someone might not want to do that
this is a horrible idea, i cant think of a better way to destroy the price of dyes
the watchwork one costed more, u are not entitled to bonuses….not all the items have to be created equal….
i got 250 gold on my first day from a black lion chest in january of 13 so i spent a year working through that money in the gem store, i have only recently spent my first 20 bucks in the store but i also have self control ulike most ppl
btw that first 20 was to buy a watchwork pick
the pic has a good feature, and new players are SUPPOSED to be cut off from old resources, and its ok that its better than the molten pick because it costed more
i dont rly like the noise making items and i dont think they were a big seller
all these ppl saying “just transmute it” are missing the point, you WILL run out of thsoe eventually and both anet and the players would be happier if we coudl just use them continuously, bcuz atm nobody is rly buying them, and the ppl who do r stuck in them at all times
I like the fact that the dye packs are continually re-released, and I have used about 25 of the limited time dyes on 11 of my characters. My characters don’t look any worse when someone else buys a dye they are using.
Content that players want shouldn’t be gated from them by TP traders. You can make more than a fair profit on dyes if you keep the price reasonable in between releases of them on the gem store.
alot of ppl disagree with you about your character’s appearance if ur dye / armor peice is no longer special, i like getting compliments on my dragon helmets that i hope will NEVER come out again, i like when noobs ask where its from and they go awww when i tell them its discontinued
and what about all my other reasons? it just hurts every1 to re release these dyes
I don’t consider other people as noobs, and I especially don’t like them feeling bad because they can’t enjoy having something in a game that I do. I wish they’d release more greatsaws every time someone asks me about mine.
Your other reasons are poor:
1) Releasing the dye packs keeps the prices of individual dyes on the TP down, so you’ll pay less for the specific dye that you want.
2) You can still make money off flipping the dyes, just not an exorbitant amount, which means more players can enjoy the dyes.
3) Prices change on the trading post all the time. Plenty of things drop or raise in price.
4) Prices getting too high on the TP for specific dyes make it less likely people will impulse gem-to-gold for a dye.
At the end of the day, as long as ArenaNet keeps the release infrequent enough that there is still profit in trading in the dyes, people will trade them. People aren’t going to refuse to trade in them because they aren’t going to get mega-rich off them.
1: it doesnt keep the price down enough for the people who wil impulse gold to gem to buy them, they still stay in the 30s and 40s so many ppl r still not able to get the dye, this makes them irrelivent in the discussion
2. you probally cannot make much money, factor this in with the risk of spending gold and not getting the dye in the first place and you have for a terrible investment idea, no longer viable at all under any circomstances, you forget that although the dyes are 100g + each in the store it costs 50 or so to get them (my record low is 30g spent for one) so they deserve and need to stay expensive to be viable
3, this is irrlivent i have no idea where ur going with this
4, thats not what anet wants…..and its not what we want
its wonderful that your so “virtuous” that u want every1 to be able to have the exact same things….i however consider communism to be a crime against humanity
I think your mistake was thinking that Anet cared about you making gold. You invested and you lost. Tough.
this was not the topic of the thread and thats the first thing i said, i expected a troll like u to show up

actually i like rare weapon skins locked in “rng” (why does this community insist on using that stpuid phrase like it implies that random is bad) boxes
too true this was a giant insult to investors and first time would be dye kit purchasers alike
