Did i just hit the wall "Why continue on GW2"

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

Taking a break might indeed be a good idea.

Generally, when anyone hits that wall, the easy answer is usually: Do I still enjoy playing? Then Yes. Do I not enjoy playing anymore and can’t think of a way to bring back that joy? Then probably not.

Indeed it would. I’m running GW2 repair now, seeing as I can at least busy myself with Ni no Kuni now while I can’t properly play GW2

Might write a support ticket with the results. I really hope they fix this, it is majorly annoying to crash in the middle of an event :/ (At least I don’t get any screen freezes of need to restart…)

Does anyone get 10 legitimate rezzes?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

I believe the important point is: Do you still rezz dead or downed players even when you already completed your daily by rezzing NPCs?

I yes, no worries.

Stop changing the dailies

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

I like not having to do the same thing every day.
Also, dailies have always been created around things you would normally do when you play – it’s the players who have turned it into a ‘daily grind’.
Which really doesn’t take longer than half an hour a day if you put your mind to it…

Also, don’t forget that we’ll get a choice about which dailies to complete in an upcoming patch.

You made this game unsexy.

… have you tried playing a scholar?
The starting gear constantly flashing me my characters panties and breasts makes me want to puke. Not to mention most of the other scholar armor constantly showing off all of a female characters ‘assets’.

Not all girls need ‘cute and sexy’ skirts.

I agree though that a little more intra-profession silouette variety would be welcome.

Search Function Alert on creating a new topic

in Suggestions

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

I would love to have some sort of big, bold hint regarding the search function appear whenever someone is trying to create a new topic, a little bit like the the ‘warning’ you get when creating a support ticket.

I, for one, really like the ‘Players helping players’ forum, but I am sick and tired of having to explain again and again and again and again and again and again… how to level and which professions good or not. And I know pretty much all forums suffer from annoying repeat topics…

Therefore, I would welcome a very noticable search-function-indicator popping up whenever someone is trying to create a new topic.

If you have collected enough materials, you could also try crafting every now and then.

reward for world completion?

Frotee.2634

Yep, you only get 2 gifts of exploration for 100% world exploration.

Pretty disappointing for someone not going for legendaries…

Have you done the WvW parts yet?

The ‘healer’ achievement can also very easily be accomplished in the reactor in the northern part of Metrica Province – there are always tons of dead NPC lying around

I usually do the Veteran achievement in Orr by following events (thus also helping me with the daily events).
Dodging can also be done nicely by dodging out of the tar elementals’ attacks in Cursed Shore.

What LvL does leveling becomes truly fun?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

Depends on what you like to do and what you’re doing. Heart quests were made to replace the traditional “pick up quest -> kill x number of y monster -> turn in quest -> pick up another” quest hubs, but are still acknowledged by many players as one of the most boring parts of the game.

Actually, they were not. Events were designed to replace the traditional pickup quests – hearts were designed as ‘event hubs’, showing players were events are especially likely/frequently to occur, and giving them something to do (as well as a reward in form of a karma vendor) while waiting for events. They were also meant to show players where they would find level appropriate content/enemies.

You can fight exciting bosses from ~ lvl 15 on – they are on a rather long timer though and usually have pre-events leading up to an interesting boss encounter.

Profession with best condition damage?

…essentially though, every condition has access to conditions. Don’t get me started on how many player complain abou the warriors’ ability to stack conditions as well as mainain high direct damage when compared to the necro…

When it comes to deciding between Mesmer and Necro, you might want to look at your preferences concerning PvP and PvE. Mesmer seems to be muchs tronger in PvP at the moment, but is quite difficult in PvE (at least in the beginning). Necros are really viable in PvE, being the most tanky scholar profession and having reliable access to specific dots. They can also turn conditions into boons and vice versa, too

Stacking conditions in PvE is quite easy on a ranger too, though, plus you can select pets which will also aplly dots.

Uhm…basically everything works to some degree oO
Although I believe most people are really grateful to a guardian who knows what they are doing. Oh, and a mesmer for PvP and WvW.

Personally, I’d recommend you to just play what looks/feels fun to you, especially in the beginning. Open world PvE at least is really easy in a group no matter the setup

New ways to acquire laurels

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

This is somewhat frustrating. GW was focused on PvP which most people loved. However, GW2 keeps adding in PvE content when people want PvP content.

This is not the same company or the same development team that created GW1. It is simply the title branding and lore theft wrapped in a new package with an entirely new game created by a new team in a new company. At some point you either accept this or walk away.

Unfortunately for me I keep poking my fork at the cold meal on my plate.

Actually, there are a LOT of people which enjoy PvE but loathe PvP, too. Yes, even in GW1. There was a design principle behind having a huge PvE world, four really large open world PvP zones and sPvP in the Game
I agree though that all three should be equally cultivated (although I’ll never set foot in sPvP and only rarely visit WvW).

We level WAY too fast

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

Woah, no thank you, I like my exp-gain just fine!
Seeing as I can easily do lower level areas while still facing a challenge (due to the downleveling and all), I don’t mind the fast leveling at all. If I actually had to work to gain enough levels to stay on par with my storyline, it would feel like…well, work, not fun.

Also, you can slow yourself down by not participating in certain activities (crafting), not exploring everything the 2nd or 3rd time around,…

Also, if you have so much fun exploring and doing events, why care about which level you have while doing them? oO

POLL: Would you like level cap to be raised?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

NO.
I was perfectly fine with the lvl 20 cap in GW1, because (at least in the expansions) you leveled while you were still learning the game and your class, but didn’t have to hunt for arbitrary numbers after that. I don’t need more levels (or stronger equipment) to feel like I progressed – just give me interesting content and I’ll be just fine.

It appears as if at least the crafting daily is bugged – I tried both artificer and tailor just now (both refining, crafting components and crafting whole items) on two different characters (one of them the one I started doing dailies with), and received no progress towards the crafting daily AT ALL.
Also, when I helped defeat ~6 veterans in Orr a couple of minutes ago, I also received no progress towards the daily.

Gatherer and Events seem to function just fine.

Anyone else had similar problems?

In my opinion, the armor is ugly in GW2

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Frotee.2634

Frotee.2634

I may have missed a previous mention of this, but I think the word a lot of people in this thread are looking for is: silhouette.

Personal tastes aside, there is very little variation in silhouette, which is just a fact. It’s particularly pronounced in medium armor (all the long coats). There are a few exceptions, but if someone doesn’t like those exceptions, then they’re out of luck.

I do expect the variety to expand. When new armors are introduced, I very much hope that ANet steps away from these signature shapings and gives us more diversity there. I’d like to see sleeker silhouette options for both men and women, a move away from bulky, “puffed” lines, and some simpler, cleaner designs. My personal issue with armor aesthetics in this game is that most everything is way too busy. Especially the high-end stuff.

This. So much of this.
I actually like the trenchcoat-look of most of the medium armors, but when you have little else to choose from over most of the game, it becomes somewhat tedious.
As for light armor, I loathe that as a female, you are pretty much stuck in either looking mostly naked (and flashing all of your assets all the time is just not…*sigh*. I wouldn’t want to choose that for my avatar) or blandly (! I don’t really mind being covered up, but could you make it a little more pretty? Maybe some more pants?) covered from head to toe. I like some of the sleek looks male scholars get – why did they have to remove ~90% of the fabric for the female version? Agh.
More diversity within the armor classes, please!
