I just tried for the first time to see how many I could get within the time frame and then I got 13 and thought…oh not bad, let’s see, if there’s a thread on the forum with high scores! XD Grats on getting 15…not sure if I want to go again to beat that XD

Removing Race Restrictions on Cultural Armors

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

My opinion: Absolutely not.

Cultural armors are expensive and exclusive for the very reason that they are cultural. That’s their whole point. Taking that away only would make everything more common and wide-spread.

Love how a post on the first page of this says “1g → 77 gems”
That was one year ago.
1g is now 11 gems…and someone please repeat how we don’t have a problem? XD

It will be another 6 months until 1g → 1 gem. We all know, it’s coming.

Yeah, now I might aswell buy it on the TP – however that doesn’t change the facts, does it? Or does anyone really think 5 tickets at all the current price rates/gem purchase/exchange/etc. is realistic? ._.

I’ll just save the ticket I have and hope some day there will be a skin I like again LOL And now to make 85g >.>

I am glad they took it off the market. Now I am waiting for them to reskin it and all the sold sets as well. I hope nobody seriously thinks, a few select people will get to keep an armor set nobody else has a chance of attaining anymore, right?

People who bought the set get their gems back.
As soon as the reskin is ready all existing sets will be reskinned and the new set will be available in the gemstore, together with medium and heavy.

DONE.

Sad surprise with Black Lion Ticket

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

So. I got excited when the Dreamthistle skins first came out. For the first time, since launch, a skin I actually liked and wanted! So I started working towards getting a ticket so I could buy the staff for my ele.

It took me 90g in game gem-gold exchange to buy keys and a few days of key-farming to get the 10 scraps needed, but yesterday I finally did it. I got my 10th scrap and went to the vendor, exchanged it for a golden ticket and – BAM it now costs 5 tickets to buy one weapon. Not one anymore. Okay?

Anet. I’ve been with you since Guild Wars, through beta and launch of GW2. I supported the game, I bought gems with real money and in game gold. I defended the game against all kinds of people, on the forums, in game, with friends and family. I tried really hard to stick with the game through new after new after new disappointments…I just can’t do it anymore.

5 tickets for one weapon skin? Really? Seeing how the scrap drop rate is less than 50%, that’s more than 9000 gems per weapon. That’s more than $110 in direct gem purchase. That’s more than 760 in game gold. For. One. Weapon. Skin. Those are PRECURSOR prices folks…

I haven’t played GW2 much, since the Living Story stuff started. I am barely playing anymore right now. And after this I have decided to not give a penny anymore, until these crazy grinding amounts are fixed. So sad right now – I really wanted that skin. But grinding for weeks, maybe even months with this RNG…not going to happen anymore.

Not going to bother. Started farming for ascended weapons, gave up after a few weeks. Not willing to waste my time like this anymore. The grind is getting absolutely ridiculous. And since the weapons neither look good, nor are they necessary stat-wise and the same goes for the armor I will just turn my head, shrug it off and not bother.

Since the first time I met this dude in game I hated him. So does my hubby. And frankly our entire guild >.> He is obnoxious, he doesn’t have a personality besides acting like he’s a big shot, while he never really does anything worthwhile.It’s like he let’s everybody work their bums off and takes all the credit. His voice is also annoying -.- I really wouldn’t mind a Living Story twist that gets this guy out of the game for good…

[Merged] Your opinions of the LFG tool

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

I say yes to class restrictions. You will just end up kicking everyone that doesn’t meet your class requirements anyway. No need to waste anyone’s time.

No to level restrictions, as people will join on their alts and switch to their mains PLENTY of times – I do it all the time, play an alt until the party fills up etc. Ask them to bring a lvl 80, if they don’t – kick.

Absolute no to gear/build check. There is no one superior build and honestly and would make people check gear/builds that have no clue what they are talking about, read somewhere that THIS build is pro for Arah and kick everyone that doesn’t use that build…nonsense like that XD Absolute NO to gear/build check in general in this game. I already don’t like it in sPvP – lol where’s the challenge if you know exactly what your opponent is running?! O_o But that’s off topic now I guess.

Does anyone actually LIKE their class?

I have loved my ranger, until I couldn’t take the huge DPS difference to other classes anymore and switched to Mesmer. I am now LOVING my mesmer – so much dmg and so much utility! Also very challenging to play a zerker Mesmer well I have also started lveling an engineer and have to say, I am thoroughly enjoying the very different playstyle with no weapon switch and instead tons of possible variations in builds with all the different kits and changing skills! Not a fan of warrior and guardian myself, I find them too stale and boring XD I like the more versatile, more challenging classes

Absolutely, yes at all times. Stop being selfish everyone. Every single player in this game should have the same chance at getting in on this fight. We have so many low pop servers, that wouldn’t ever be able to do this without guesting.

TC lost the fight with Tequatl having 1pct health left and did get the “Flawless Defense” achievement. That was last night. I am pretty sure you don’t have to actually beat Tequatl at this point – if they will change that, no idea

Needs a nerf

in Tequatl Rising

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

Yeah, please do not nerf this. It’s the ONE encounter in the entire game that requires an entire server to communicate and coordinate – the entire rest of the game is easy going.

For the low population servers – guesting might be the way to go. You do need 80-100 players currently to beat Tequatl, so if you do not have those numbers, honestly, don’t waste your time trying. If you don’t have enough DPS to get him to 75% with at least 7 minutes left on the timer, quit. You won’t be able to finish him in time. At least that way you won’t waste your time.

I honestly would go as far as saying, that gemstore items unused should be able to be sold back to the gemstore for the same amount of gems you bought them for. I know it’s stupid, but I have accidently bought armor sets several times already and now they sit in my bank and I am so mad at myself >.> Would be great, if we could just sell them back and then buy what we actually wanted to buy <3

This is the…5th…6th thread with the same topic? This is not the way to get anyone to listen to you, but that just upfront.

About guesting: TC has beaten Teq twice now and I am sure, there were plenty of guesting people there during all encounters after our first victory. Yet the coordination still works. We give everyone in map our mumble info, that way we can coordinate with people no matter what home server. Maybe trying to make it work is the way to go, rather than trying to screw players from low population servers out of being able to ever win this fight…

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

The reason people don’t take low lvl players is because they don’t have all their traits, therefor their builds are incomplete and not as effective. Second reason is because you never know, if a low lvl players even knows, what they are doing. If you want to run dungeons with low lvl toons I strongly suggest you join a guild that does that – problem solved.

There is ONE – I repeat ONE – viable farm in this game and you want to nerf it? Why? Seriously. Why? Everybody in this game should be free to do, whatever they want to do. If people want to spend their time farming, they should be able to. If you don’t want to farm, then don’t. Farming champs is by far NOT the best or fastest way to make money, so the common argument that it gives certain people a financial advantage is just false. Beyond that…why?

Tabbing thru targets

in PvP

Posted by: Firefly.5982

Firefly.5982

I am out of PvP if they implement this the way it sounds. You SHOULD go through every enemy thing that is in your range while tab targetting. CLICK a player if you want to or can’t use tab targetting for that. The whole point of minions/spirits/clones is to confuse the enemy player and use them possibly confusing you with your minions etc. to your advantage – it’s part of the game and if they take it out now, I am outa here LOL

For Crystalline Dust: Do NOT just salvage your ectos. Compare ecto ad dust prices on the TP. Currently it is more profitable to sell your ectos and then buy order the dust directly. The rate is about 1.5 dust per ecto on average so unless the ecto price is no higher than 1.5 times the dust price, buy the dust directly. ALWAYS calculate this as it changes a lot.

I need everything else to be vendor-able though, besides the mini pet – if I were to use an invisible bag all the stuff in there wouldn’t show up for vendoring, right? Also, the invisible bags with higher slot number are much more expensive, than the regular bas soooo…not everyone can even afford one Just taking the mini pets out of the “Deposit all” would probably help everyone, no?
