Guild Wars 2

Nope, no luck finding him.

According to wiki:

“Pact Requisitioner Hargrove is an NPC that appears in an instanced version of Fort Trinity at the end of the Personal Story Quests. He currently has a merchant buy dialogue, but only the sell option is available. In the non-instanced version of Fort Trinity, he is behind a door that is normally closed, located to the left of the door that leads to the airship.”

That part is still locked tho.

I cant relate to the OP at all, have you tried a knight-set? Go with berserker accessories if you need more crit dmg. Also try Retributive Armor-talent from Valor.

Hi,

I mostly vendor the white/blue/green stuff i loot from Orr and list the yellows on the TP.
But is it better to salvage everything light/heavy for a chanse of T6 material? If so, does it matter what kit you use?

The mystic/master salvage kits got 25% of rare material, does this only work for ectos or does this also increas the chanse to get T6 materials? or are you better off using crude kits for the whites? Does this also affect the “salvageble items”?

Alos the yellows. Most of them go for ~20s on the TP, about the same price as one ecto. Would you be better off just taking the silver, or gambling for +2 ectos and some T6 material?

Whats your way of dealing with the loot you get?

Would be nice if Anet took time to respond to all the DR threads on how they want us to play their game.

I love the game, i dont love the DR system. Right now i feel limited.

Their DR system punishes the wrong playerbase (the regular players, not the bots).

sanadin.8317:

“This can not be how you envisioned the end-game for GW2.”

I feel the same way. If they don’t want us to grind DE’s for karma what ARE we supposed to do? When they removed dungeon token speed runs they gave incentive to players to explore all aspects of the dungeon every day. This makes sense, they are encouraging players to play the way they want. Where’s the new karma incentive? All I’m seeing is, “we want you to take longer”

Well kitten that. I juggled a challenging full time job and relationship along with this legendary quest and there’s no way I could’ve completed this in 1 month like some others did. Why should I be punished for that?

This.

Please tell us how you want us to play your game? I enjoy GW2, alot. I want it to become sucessful and that we can keep a high number of players so we dont end up with ghost servers (SWTOR anyone?). But as of right now i feel punished for playing the game the way i want.

The DR system forces me to play GW2 the way Anet wants, not the way i want.

What if i WANT to spend my saturdaymorning with a big cup of coffee and farm 2h in Orr for gold and karma? Nono, instead i have to get punished for doing this by reducing the gain i get untill the point where i have to switch zone or do something different.

That full set of karma gear you want? Yeah keep farming those events for the full set after DR kicks in, hope you enjoy your stay (or dont mind the wp cost to switch zone for another event).

Same with dungeons. What if i want to put togeather a group for a evening and farm some badges. No we can only do this for about a hour then we have to switch to something else to do if we dont want to feel punished.

Sure we can continue farming and recive 1-15 badges per run. Great! Now to get that full armor + weapon i just have to stay in here for a lifetime! Your dungeons are fun, sure, but not that fun.

Please dont punish regular mmo gameplay because of the bots, you got to be able to solve this some other way.

Br,

Ill post my reply in another thread here aswell:

Our group did AC yesterday where 3 ppl got 60 tokens, 1 got 45 and one got 15. Judging from your posts you are aware of this and working on a fix, great (first run of the day for everyone).

Bugs aside your saftey net will punish ppl in the long run. The game is one month old and we can already clear all 3 paths in AC in ~30 min each. Imagine a few months from now when ppl are in full exotics and got the dodge timing perfected, and learnt what to chainpull and how all boss mechanics work. I bet you can remove atleast 10 minutes from those timers then.

Some dungeons will require more time, but punishing ppl for being good is bad design.

That aside, when your DR system works as intended maybe we wont notice this, but if it kicks in for us being effective it sucks.

Pick up a crafting profession and build the items yourself? If youre buying from the playermarket its not Anets fault that the items are expensive.

And instead of traveling around alot, run! Kill things on the way and sell what you find, that way youll save alot of gold.

Also, dont salvage every item you find, sell it to vendor (except when salvaging for sigils/ecto @ lvl 80). The price of the salvage material are in most cases less worth then the item sells to vendor for.

Looks/feel: As long as youre not wielding a staff a Norn looks best imo. Massive body and huge weapons fit the style im going for with my hammer.

The Norn also has ok attack animations, and the hammer #2 skill feels mighty when you jump in with your huge frame and sink your weapon in the foe.

For racials i must say that im one of the few that find Renewed Focus usefull so race doesnt matter for me, but the norn racials are lackluster.

My guardian, hammer ftw!

Edit due to post below:
Armor – karma items from fireheart ridge. Abyss/Red dye
Weapon – Hammer from Ebon Vanguard in Ebonhawke

Sent you a PM Brutaly.

Great, the more the merrier. And hopfully some attention from Anet.

BIMBLE.7952:

In Star Wars Galaxies (SWG), there was a certain profession (I can’t, for the life of me, recall what the name of the profession was) but, in essence, it allowed one player to alter the various aesthetic aspects of another character.

It was called Image Designer. And i approve of this thread.

Hi,

A feature Anet would probably gain alot of money from would be a character customization feature in the gemstore. Not changing race or class quest alterations, just how you’ve built your characters body from the start.

Currently im playing my Norn Guardian which i like alot, but it doesnt go a day where i dont regret the choise of bodytype (i look something like batman from the 80s) and beard (it clips through most helmets).

Here is a picture for reference: http://www.linusjonkman.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/adam-west-batman.jpeg

Br,

I agree its frustrating seeing the points drop every night, but its part of the game currently, namecalling and trashing here wont change anything (especialy as you cant see the name of the guy youre killing, thus no satesfaction knowing you stomped your forum nemesis).

Give it a few weeks and things will even out. Lots of players will drop out due to WoW and other reasons. After that we will see a more realistic view of the server rating.
The VS players might have stopt playing during off-hours, FS playersbase might have dropped and finding us ranked #10 with Fissure of Woe as #1, noone knows.

So, stock up on RL supplies (beer/whiskey) for the weekend and lets have a nice fight when the 3 servers will be represented 24/7 and take the battle to the battlefield instead of the forum.
