Guild Wars 2

I had no idea aquabreathers could be upgraded

Run both as alts and both work well. Range means you have to run further to the dead mob to pick up the drop.

All I know is it is easier to kill mobs when I’m scaled down. Beyond that not fussed, sorry.

I tried that one first. It NASA value in dungeons I discovered. I then picked the one that stops all damage for 3 secs and resets your virtues (f1 f2 f3) and I use that now and then in PvE and it can help when getting pounded.

Only got those two for now but that’s my feedback on them.

To be honest, any game is more fun if there is a ranking system. If you don’t care about it you PvP for the kicks, which is what I did in WOW. But if you get good at it ( I’m only ever a mediocre player but I do have a laugh) then having rankings is an additional bonus. In fact, even as a mediocre player I’d like to be ranked to see if I am progressing or regressing and set myself subsequent challenges and goals.

So there is no negative in having rankings and positives to gain from it, so stating ‘if you are stuck in the XYZ mindset GW2 isn’t for you’ is just silly.

When I am on my guardian, can you nerf warriors, thieves, eles, necros, rangers, engineers and mesmers because they are all OP.

When I am on my ranger can you nerf warriors, thieves, guardians, eles, necros, engineers and mesmers because they are all OP.

When I am on my engineer can you nerf warriors, thieves, guardians, eles, necros, engineers and mesmers because they are all OP.

When I am on my warrior can you nerf guardians, thieves, eles, necros, engineers and mesmers because they are all OP.

In addition can you nerf all the dungeons, I can’t seem to face roll them and they skill, wtf is that about!!!!!!!

Yes, I have 4 characters and have decided to mix between them for variety. God knows when I will get one to 80 let alone all of them but I don’t care. The game is great but it can get a bit samey so mixing up with alts makes different play sessions have a different feel.

Guardian 50
Engineer, range and warrior all around 20

I am also levelling all 8 crafts, 2 per character, which necessitates a degree of mats farming which also adds a different pace to the game and thus reduces the repetition in some ways.

Don’t fret, play em all, and remember the end game starts at the beginning because everything scales and nothing is really in the past, which is nice.

you are, already. Going back to low levels is so much easier even with scaling. What you meant to state is you want to be able to one shot everything because you can’t be arsed with fighting mobs when all you wants a stick of butter.

Of course if that we the case and getting that stick of butter was that much easier than you then you could level crafting or make items easier than others which would be to your advantage. So what you really want is the game to give you things more easily so you can win quicker.

Scaling works incredibly well.

If you really want to face roll your way to the top, spend you real life cash on gems and buy your way to the top rather than asking for changes that would negatively impact on other people’s gaming experience and enjoyment.

Or play another MMO of course. I don’t believe scaling was a hidden feature or one added last minute.

Haha. Cheers. Given I haven’t posted rude words I hadn’t realised. Retrospectively a post I read earlier now makes much more sense.

Cheers.

I have learnt some of the jargon over the last year, but what is a kitten?

Hello forum mods.

As noobs, learning doesn’t always come from Q&A threads. When threads, such as the one started about the dungeon levels being hard, are started and discussion ensues,, there’s usually a lot of additional usual information in them with which to glean insight and learn. This additional insight won’t necessarily come from a thread entitled ‘how can I be better at dungeons’ for example.

So, when you come in and lock it what you are actually doing is stopping us noobs who can read from learning… ie: getting help from players, which is what this forum is about.

In addition, if ANet haven’t had enough time over the last 5 years to build a robust forum and we are therefore without forums that are actually an important part of a gaming forum and our relationship with the game, then why are we, your paying customers, penalised?

Either open a general discussion forum, or if 1 more forum will break the camel’s back, then close some of the others. I suggest linksville and Fan generated content could probably be done without in exchange for a general discussion forum for the small amount of time it will take you to build a proper forum for the game.

But at the moment it just seems like the general discussion forum is the one most likely to have pro and con debate which will lead to negative comments on your forum (not everyone will be happy) and perhaps that is what is trying to be avoided.

Don’t get me wrong, on the whole I enjoy the game, am a fan. But I want to learn through discussion. I want to here criticisms of the game and listen to the replies to them because through that I will learn. I know you aren’t necessarily players, and so by engaging in this forum you don’t ‘need’ to be a player helping a player, which is fair enough, but why on earth would you wish to be a person hindering the players from learning about the game by locking threads? Just seems a bit mean.

And arena net, open a general discussion forum, it’s an essential part of the community… unless your following the ethos of say North Korea, where general discussion is possibly Rather frowned upon. Are you?

Many thanks.

Go into the world. Kill things. Sell the gear drops to vendors. Repeat. You will get money. I have.

Have fun.
