Gold for Achievement Points

in A Very Merry Wintersday

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

10AP per 1g? That would be silly.

If we’re discussing sinks, let’s make them deep sinks.
Every donation awards 10AP, but the amount of money required goes up with every donation.
3g->6g->12g->24g->48g->96g->192g->384g->768g->1536g->3072g->……..

This way it would become unsustainable for even the richest players to continue buying AP with money and would also reduce the gold in circulation.

Basing my argument on this achievement, every Achievement Point is worth about 4g95s.

Fenrir and Shades I would love to try your suggestion and Shades even put easy instructions but the problem is and maybe I’m just not using the right search words in Black Lion Trading but I can’t find a white or blue backpiece.

DreamOfACure since everything else INCLUDING legendaries are account bound or can be made account bound through the steps above your post is invalid. So just take your anger out somewhere else please.

As I said please don’t blast me let’s keep this thread nice.

I know for a fact that there is certain white backpiece in the market.

It comes from any of these sets:

Jewel Crafting to 500

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

Make the Jeweler the one craft that can get to 500 and not actually make ascended items like rings and such since anet already screwed them out of being able to do that anyway. Let them be the ones who can refine the mats and those mats refined by a Jeweler will be able to be sold on the TP. Not only being able to refine mats to higher states but break down rings from drops into ready to use mats.
Yes this is a good compensation for not letting the Jeweler do what he was supposed to do anyway.

Jewelcrafting will also get its cap raised sometime in the future. Crystalline Ores and Bars are in the game, but can’t be obtained/don’t even have an use yet.

Armor Cap to avoid Pure Zerker Builds

Consider renaming the thread to Armor cap to ruin the game for the ones having fun.

more like armor cap to ruin the game for the baddies having fun laughing at anyone who isnt using a zerk build.

Tbh full zerker is what i run on close to all my character however i dont spec all out damage to compensate for the actual survivability loss because i dont like glass cannon to begin with. Running raw damage warriors makes me feel like a thief running raw damage guardian also makes me feel like a thief. Warriors is supose to be able to take the blows and push mobs around with knockdown or stun them, simply running Axe or Greatsword just feel wrong so i run Rifle Hammer mace shield and dual sword or sword shield. Altrought i do something gets my greatsword out for damage sake id rather keep it in my bag at all time if i could.

It’s difficult to take seriously anyone who uses the expression “baddies” thinking it adds anything of value to their argument.

If anything, running berserker in higher tier dungeons does take a higher degree of skill than running, say, soldiers/sentinel. Being so squishy leaves little space for mistakes and forces you to pay attention to your surroundings if you want to stay alive.

Mesmer Mimic Bugs

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

The only real use of this skill was to mimic agony in high lvl fotm so that you could one shot certain things with the agony. That use was nerfed with the fotm update and the skill is now practically worthless.

You have to survive the attack you absorb, this is just how the skill works without the ability to mimic agony the skill has almost no practical use.

Idk what you’d really want to absorb while underwater so that bug probably has low priority.

Regardless of popular use the skill should still work. Nowhere was it clarified that you’re supposed to take damage from the absorbed skill. If taking damage from the first projectile that hits you is intended it should say “copy the next projectile” instead of “absorb a projectile”. How hard can it be the lengthen a skills duration to match its on-land counter part?

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mimic

The first projectile that hits during this skill’s “active” period will inflict full damage as well as any additional affects (control, conditions).

After a projectile has been absorbed, the remaining duration will reflect all projectiles and block all other attacks.
An absorbed spell will manifest as a glowing orb hovering over the Mesmer’s left hand accompanied by a looping ethereal ambient sound effect.
Like other sequence skills, Echo will reset to mimic if the Mesmer is downed. It otherwise lasts indefinitely.

While I do agree that Scarlet’s introduction could’ve been executed much better, it is not too hard for me to see that many of the anti-Scarlet arguments here are mere assumptions driven by blind hate against her. I believe it would be most beneficial for everyone to take a minute and think, and digest everything we’ve learned so far before simply spewing logical fallacies here and there.

Happiness is subjective; something that could make you and others happy could lead to the unhappiness of many others.

Say, if they increased the drop-rate, the TP prices would sharply fall and those selling it would find it much less profitable, and that’s without even mentioning those others who bought it for 40+g already.

In short, you can’t make everyone happy, as not everyone shares the same opinion.

Jumping Puzzle Raaage...

in A Very Merry Wintersday

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

My problem with this puzzle is the PvP format. First try I apparently join a “game in progress” and don’t notice, because at around 80% of the puzzle I get this score board popping up in (and blocking most of) my screen. I click it away, hoping I can still finish. But nope, seconds away from the reward I get booted back to the start. WHY!!! When I enter a puzzle with a timer, I want a fresh timer, I don’t want to join a map where apparently someone just left. From that point I kept failing at the stairs of exploding pressies and because I already lost my motivation at the very first try, no puzzle for me this year I guess. Nice that the waiting time between tries is gone. But stupid timer should die in agony.

Too much effort to look up and see how much time there is left?

Why can't we do events together?

in A Very Merry Wintersday

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

What is the point of joining a guild when we can’t do events together. The snowball mayhem game, for example, as well as the inquisition game from Halloween both exclude group gameplay. This is stupid. I should be able to play a game with my friends and my guild. This is a simple fix. If I am in a group and join one of these games, a prompt should appear on my group members screens and if they decide to join they should be brought into the same instance as me. I honestly don’t know how someone could come up with the idea to exclude this from a multiplier game. It is in the most basic sense, stupid.

Because ANET believes it’s more important to keep those teams balanced, rather than let friends play together. Psh.

Ascended Armor

in A Very Merry Wintersday

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

I think some people are totally missing the point of the type of goal ascended gear is supposed to provide.

I’m pretty sure gold sinks and increasing gem sales are a big part of the ascended equation as well.

They would have a hard time adding armor acquisition methods outside of drops to other areas of the game because crafting acts as a time, effort, and money gate.

naw, they could have used the laurel system (see ascended trinkets in pve and wvw) for acquiring ascended weapons and armor to start as well. would have been pretty easy for them to allow players to purchase X ascended piece for X laurels, X gold, X crafting mat or X badges to accomplish the same goals.

don’t make excuses for a poor implementation decision that only provides 1 reliable method to obtain ascended gear and alienates players who don’t like to craft in the process.

Wouldn’t Laurels make it even more time-gated?

Yes it would but it would also make it much less grindy and time consuming for people that dont play 5+ per day. And laurels are obtainable from many sources of game but don’t necessarily force to do everything in game.
Anyway it is not only laurels that could be another source of ascended weapons and armor. Badges of honor, guild comendations, fractal relics or combination of those. Even dungeon tokens could serve well here.

Anything, except Laurels. I hate time-gating much more than farming.

Make Old untransmuted fractal weapons skins!

in Fractured

Posted by: FenrirSlakt.3692

FenrirSlakt.3692

No, it’s not. Old Fractal weapons are still weapons and as such, they need a transmutation crystal to be fused with another weapon’s stat. There are thousands of old Fractal weapons in use these days. If you were to change the item type from Weapon to Skin, it is extremely likely that it will mess up every pre-patch Fractal weapon.
Remember that they don’t just become a new item while transmuted, otherwise things like the Transmutation Splitter would not be possible in their current state..

Then don’t force the transform from weapon to skin.

Do it exactly like they did with unlimited gathering tools. You put an npc trading the old weapons for the new skins. Players will trade what they want (untransmuted ones) and there will be no problems with the already transmuted weapons.

This is actually a coherent solution.
