From GW2’s inception, GW1 was meant to have a carry over presence in both lore and tangible rewards.
The measly 2 AP points per tier was a joke. A token tip of the hat, if you will. This increase is more representative of their worth. Don’t come in here and QQ about achievement rebalances. If it bothers you that much, go get your dues in GW1.
Thanks Anet for standing up, and recognizing our GW1 efforts with an appropriate AP reward.
…next on the AP rebalance should be a reworking of WvW. I’d also like to see an increase for equipping legendary weapons. 5 points per, isn’t appropriate.
Why do you expect Anet to make PvP work? They failed in GW1, and it’s not working in GW2 either.
Good thing 95% of the players are here for PvE. It’s what pays the bills. It’s what gets the development time. PvPers are lucky to get the scraps left over. Usually, they just get to lick the plates.
If you enjoyed doing that JP with different characters rejoyce, you can still do it pretty easily.
It wasn’t a matter of ignoring you wolf. You garnered no more than you contributed to the conversation. I’m sorry you felt left out on some special point that you thought you were making. Explain how your response warranted some kind of attention that wasn’t explained in the body of this thread.
Repeating the content includes the fun of opening the chest. Did you honestly not gather that from the previous comments? You ask for enlightenment, but you’re not willing to take the time to read what we’ve been discussing?
If you don’t wish to contribute in a meaningful manner, I’ll add you to the “don’t respond to list”.
The reason I am running that puzzle many times per day is that I can troll and kill ppl before the chest. Try to find something else that makes eb puzzle interesting.
I guess my motivation doesn’t come at the expense of other’s play experience. If my goal was to be a jerk to other players, I guess I wouldn’t have issue with the chest nerf either.
I don’t often run it daily, many times (the fact that I just noticed the nerf now, should tell you this). However when I want to, I shouldn’t be facing this nerf. It doesn’t matter if you’re hungry, if there’s no carrot at the end of the string why would you bother? It’s fun to open a chest.
You can still get as much siege in the BL with alts. It’s also just as easy to Mesmer bypass as EB is.
I think that you are just kitten ed off cause ppl camp at the end of eb jp and you can’t get that end chest.
If that’s the case, why would I be wanting to run the EB JP multiple times? If what you say is true, why would I need or want to run it multiple times in a day. You make zero sense with this comment. I’m just curious how on earth you came to that thought.
I’m done addressing you Ayrilana. You bring nothing to this discussion. You have nothing to contribute, except invalid points and insulting behavior. You might as well troll somewhere else.
A good example is how you think people don’t port borderlands. You’re done. Move along.
Maybe they changed it cause ppl with many 80 lvls got more rewards than ppl with 1 or 2 80 lvls. Eb chests have highest rewards and too little effort really.
You already got your legendary and every item you wanted. Money is not a problem for you so why do you even need rewards from eb jps?
Why are you complaining?
I enjoy the puzzle. When I’m in a mood to do the EB JP, I want the option to run it more than once. Pretty simple.
There is already more jumping puzzles than there is real actual challenging content in this game. Go do those other puzzles if you want rewards. Maybe you are just complaining cause you can’t get rewards from dungeons or something. I am not seeing your point here cause you already have everything you wanted. Maybe it is just l2p when you are not getting rewards from anywhere else cause other content is too hard for you.
Done them all, many times. I’m ranked 31st in North America for achievements to boot. I’ve done everything in the game, and I like to go back and repeat content I enjoy. Suggesting that the content is too hard for me, or that I may need to “l2P”, is soaked in ignorance. Thanks buddy. Your supposition is foolish, and a bit of a jerk move.
Why should eb jps be once per day per char when mesmer can port your lvl80 char and you can complete jps in short time? If you really like to JUMP those puzzles you wouldn’t be here complaining about rewards.
Why should they not follow the exact same standards as every other jumping puzzle in the game? Each one can be completed once per character, once per day. A Mesmer can port each and every other puzzle in the game as well.
Something is not moot just because it goes against your opinion. I suggest you look up what condescending means. None of my posts were anything close to that. The BL jp required you to collect keys and did not have people sitting on top porting people. You could do the EB puzzle in less than a min with absolutely zero effort.
The only thing moot is that any argument for one side or the other won’t matter as this nerf will not be reversed.
Yup, you most certainly have a condescending attitude. Also demonstrated with this reply too. Implying that I missed your point was a condescension, as is your suggestion that I need to look up what the word condescending means. You’re too self absorbed to realize you don’t have much to offer.
As to your point that the collection of keys makes the BL different, you’re wrong (not surprised) in that regard as well. Two mesmers make those puzzles just as easy as the EB puzzle. Fact.
Enjoying running puzzles multiple times with lvl 1 characters? Sure you can still run those puzzles over and over again. Maybe jumping puzzles was never meant to be farmed over and over again. Easy money nerfed. You don’t have to know how to play the game and still get reward from the chest. Run dungeons or something if you want to get money.
A level 1 wouldn’t get you any money to speak of. The loot (both number badges and low level of gear), is scaled down. You couldn’t farm that chest and make decent money.
Also, on a side note….money isn’t a problem for me. I’ve already got a legendary, and just about every item I want. I enjoy jumping puzzles. I especially liked the EB one.
All jumping puzzles are per character per day. There is no reason for the EB chest to be any different.
You missed the point as you did not see my other post.
Your point posted was moot. It wasn’t missed. Nice condescending attitude failure though.
As stated above, the loot is scaled to your character level. Just as it is in the BL puzzles. There is no reason that the EB puzzle should be limited to one character per account.
You’re participating in WvW. Doing the jumping puzzle contributes nothing. You could easily farm 100+ badges an hour before the nerf.
You can easily farm as many zergtarding per hour.
Correct me if I’m wrong but with moving the JP into it’s own instance, the map limit for EB is separate. What does it matter, if you enjoy farming the JP? The two activities are now mutually exclusive.
Really lame, especially since there was no change to the daily/character chests in the BL JP.
What was the thought(less) process behind this change? I find this an unreasonable nerf to those of us that enjoyed running multiple characters through.
Wut is dis sorcery? I was baffled by the cinematic itself..but putting an (oh god, dare i?!) Asian female in it? What turned u around? I thought the master race (asia) forbid any asiatic theme like cantha into the game for the “common folk” represented by the rest of the world. This also includes other shapes of eyes that are even 1 degree different then ours.
What turned u around as to offer us such a delight?
So, I decided to check out this griefing issue in dragon ball.
What person at Anet decided that teleporting a player that’s “away from keyboard” into the arena was a good idea?
Free kills for the other team.
Immunity from the idle kick.
Rewards at the end of the match to boot!
It’s bad enough that you don’t provide us the report option for this abuse in game. It’s worse that you included a game mechanic that makes it easier for these players to abuse us.
Don’t let up on the demands for a report option for akitten “players”.
Now that this issue is having a negative effect on PVE players too, maybe we can get something done.
sPvP and tPvP players have been dealing with akers and leavers from the start. With this mini game, the rest of the players in GW gets to see how frustrating, and unfair this issue is.
Players need to be punished for ruining the game experience for other players. Anet needs to get off their butts and do something. We need a report option. We need the dishonorable hex from GW1 back.
I also find it funny how the form is filtering “(a) (f) (k)”. Even the forum censorship software knows that these cancerous jerks need removal.
It’s not broken. I’m living in Australia so I’m playing under a minimum 300 – 400ms ping handicap, yet I can still win most of my matches. The game is loads of fun to the right people (of whom I’m one). I get that you don’t like the game, and it won’t be for everyone, but it’s no more a misfit for the Dailies than Keg Brawl is.
Wrong.
The hatchlings aren’t supposed to target anybody but the crab carrier. The game designer couldn’t figure it out, so he pulled a “close enough”, and threw it in anyways. Guardians aren’t supposed to be allowed to use their passive aegis either. They do (just like in keg brawl). They have a first hit immunity which goes a big way in securing a lead.
It’s not that I just don’t like the game, it has no place in the dailies in it’s current form. Especially not wins. I can win 1 out of 3 games, but it’s still a crappy thing to demand wins for this kitten of a mini game.
The problem with keeping track of these bad apples, and trying to stay off a team with them is that a good amount of time you have no choice. Many, many times I’ve been paired up with capital kittens and no time to leave the roster before I’m stuck with them.
No option to report them, no chance to leave the roster before being locked in.
IMO, another fix would be to stop matchmaking from pairing you with anybody on your ignore list. One can only dream.
When are we going to get some kind of consideration from Anet? AFK “players” and rage quitters are making tPvP downright nasty.
It especially compounds when it concerns random teams (random vs premade is another whole can of worms).
When are we going to see some genuine effort on Anet’s behalf for these issues? A report option for AFK or leavers is easy to add to the report option. Even better, would be brining back the dishonorable hex from GW1.
It was important enough to have in GW1. Why is it not important enough in GW2?
No. I think sPvP and tPvP are a distillation of the worst in gw2 players. It’ too bad this portion of the playerbase gets any kind of consideration from the developers.
Never, have I seen a group of more ethically corrupt video game players. This makes Xbox Call of Duty players look like boy scouts.
