Charr-Human friendship

in Lore

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

Ascalon was Charr land until the humans pushed them out, they started the war. Everything that happened after then is the humans fault.
To say the humans are in the right there is like saying the americans were in the right against the native americans or in an example more relevant to me, the europeans vs the maori of nz.
Yeah its happened now and in our case there isn’t really any going back but I’m guessing thats because the losing sides in real life didnt have massive armies to fight back with after the fact.

Dye Account wide

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

I disagree with this idea I think its fair enough to have to unlock the dye separately on each character.
If you honestly have a problem I will refer you back to the guild wars 1 dye system where dyes were single use for one piece of armor, so for example if you wanted the most expensive dye you would have to buy 1 for each piece of armor.
The current dye system is already much more lenient, we don’t need it any easier.

I have a whole bank tab full of extra mat stacks that i had to withdraw so I could still deposit while in the field so adding depositable slots for all crafting mats wouldn’t make me not need more bank tabs if that was a concern for them.

Do you still feel server pride?

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

I’m on Vabbi and I think dedication is a better term for what I have for it.
We were doing decently in wvw until some of the bigger wvw guilds migrated and I think the sudden decrease in wvw ability caused some individual players to change server to one that was higher up as well.That whole attitude sickens me, jumping ship only makes the servers even more unbalanced.

Goatjugsoup.8637

Yes it sounds like a problem but I don’t think having a straight extra 10-15 seconds logged on is the solution. Some people generally get disconnected while playing and would not have willingly quit like that, they don’t deserve to be punished for something not in their control.

Perhaps they could have a lifetime honor system where quitting while under attack in wvw earns points against and after a certain amount that extra time logged in thing will come into effect. There would also need to be a way to clear those points but that would need to be thought out so that people don’t just clear those points and then abuse it again.

To be honest though I haven’t had this happen to me on vabbi, people who are losing a fight from me either try to run away in game or fight to the death and same vice versa, haven’t had a single quit.

in a more helpful vein though TC I would seriously stop thinking if something is realistic or not in this game and rather whether or not it was intended by the devs, if its a bug report it and they will fix it eventually, otherwise you just have to deal.

Exploration/Jumping Puzzle Armor

in Suggestions

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about the rewards you get from jumping puzzles and while I agree they are currently pretty lame (except for the wvw ones which are actually useful) no-one seems to be offering up a solution.

I propose that along with the rubbish items that are currently being rewarded from jumping puzzle chests you also have a chance to earn an amount of tokens (from a variable range depending on the difficulty i.e. easy = 1-3, normal = 2-5, hard = 3-6). Those tokens could then be collected over time and used at a merchant for among other things a special skinned armor set.

The stats of the armor set don’t have to be the best as its about offering a unique and worthwile reward from the jumping puzzle chests.

Dolyak guards...

in Suggestions

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

guards are only there essentially to protect from NPC spawns killing yaks. Without hiring guards almost every yak will be killed by cave bats/krait/colocol/drakes etc. before it ever gets to its destination.

That’s weird it sounds like something that would happen but I have never seen that before, often times i might be taking down enemy dolyaks and they get to the point where i take them down with no trouble and without guards.

Also to this topic yeah it is something I noticed the other day when I did happen across a guarded dolyak I thought I will try and at least get the event done before I die, killed the dolyak and the guards disappeared.

I don’t know how hard it would be to do this but I think when a supply camp has the upgrade for guards to follow the dolyak the event should be expanded to take down the whole caravan and not just the dolyak. That way the dolyak can be revivable if the player doesn’t take out the guards and the dolyak event can not be abusively farmed in a way unintended

You, like everyone else in the world who doesn’t pay extra money for a static IP address, have a Dynamic IP address. Some other random person now has the ‘network’ you told ANet to memorize. See my earlier post in this thread.

DON’T CHECK THE REMEMBER BOX. It might be annoying but the network you are saving isn’t YOURS. It is your ISP’s and they pass it around to all their clients every time your modem reboots or even more often depending on your ISP.

Oh alright I suppose that makes sense, thanks for the reply.

Remove monster Invulnerability

in Suggestions

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

Yes this is a very big issue for me, all annoyance causing (and presumably unintended) bugs aside I don’t think it’s right or fair for monsters to be able to be invincible because they can’t attack you. If you are on a cliff attacking something and they can’t attack you that is smart positioning on your part and to be punished for that isn’t right.

Monsters should instead go oh I’m being attacked, can’t attack the attacker so lets move out of range.

Also in the same vein I’ve had some instances where I was in a fight, the monster was attacking me as well and then like it had decided it was bored or done with the fight it ran away and regenerated to full health even as I was still attacking it. I’m not sure if programmatically the two issues would be connected but from a player standpoint it seems they are.

This isn’t too much of an issue but I have told the email authenticator to remember my IP address but occasionally it makes me authenticate again even though I never use a different computer. Mostly I am asking out of curiosity as to why that would be (like I said to start as long as I follow the authentication process there are no issues and I’m not being hacked or anything).

It’s not just pressing 8 buttons though, its what weapons to use in what situations, what skills to use and when, character movement, usage of your pet.
The other classes are equally complex whether you think so or not but perhaps they fit your playstyle better and so you learn them faster.
Failing at playing a ranger does not mean ranger is a fail class it means you are failing at playing a ranger.

Gold accumulates like nothing when you are at high level, for you to even notice it the price has to be higher than if you were at level 1 where you might struggle to make 10 silver.
*edit
Although I do think if you are standing right underneath the waypoint should have no charge, perhaps up to a distance of 10 in-game meters away. I don’t see this having much practical use but I find it very annoying on the odd occasion where I have waypointed somewhere and accidentally clicked the waypoint again on my minimap and it asks if i want to travel there for over 1 silver when I am right under the thing.

Also soloing the events? yea sure with my warrior no problem, but im playing my ranger, that couldnt solo opening a door by himself.

Seems like a l2p ranger issue tbh.

Not to mention most servers are high-full at almost all times.

It most definitely is a learn to play issue, I play ranger on vabbi a server with mid range population, leveled up to 80 in the first 2 weeks (I know its not as fast as some) and have had no issue soloing any of the content I needed to other than champion bosses which are avoidable if there is no one else around to help.

New kind of transmutation stone

in Suggestions

Posted by: Goatjugsoup.8637

Goatjugsoup.8637

First let me just say I think I have a handle on why things get soulbound so this isn’t a topic about unbinding them, rather its about how when you transmute 2 items even if neither are soulbound the resulting item becomes that way.
I think there should be another type of transmutation stone where if the input items are not soulbound the resulting one will not be either, it seems like that could be useful in creating more valuable items to put on the trading post.

No need, a new account means the player will be low level and therefore have such a low cost as to be negligible.
