Guild Wars 2

Just a though about a possible solution to the still aggravating issue regarding the gemstore’s black lion chest and the tormenting RNG.

The idea is to add “Premium Black Lion Chests” which are only obtainable through the gemstore. The chests will provide the exact same contents of the normal Black Lion Chests with the exception of 1 thing.

Instead of being riddled with annoying RNG they will provide a “Token of Appreciation” to players who don’t obtain a unique item or item token. Which in turn 3-5-10 tokens can be traded in for another token like the Molten alliance weapon tokens, or maybe even more for the exceptionally rare contents from the chest.

The reason i think these 2 versions of the chests shall be separate is because the normal one is obtainable in the game world while the keys are farmable with new chars. While the Premium one can only be obtained through the gemstore.

Are the gemstore weapons 1 time use? Or can they be used multiple times?

Also do i need to purchases 2 of the same if i want to use them for both pve and pvp?

Every engineer knows the agony of continuously press 1 all the time when using grenades.
So why not add an toggleable option so that xyz skills are automatically tossed or centered at the current target.

This could of course work at the same way as the toggleable autocast which is (ctrl+2 mouse) but only use shift or alt instead.

At least for charr…
Seriously would want to buy the Cook’s outfit any day over profane outfit for my charr,
since it is one of the armor sets that for once isn’t just a stretched version of the human ones.

I started of with a Necromancer and instantly fell in love with their masks, especially the charr ones and the wraith mask for humans. I was really sadden’t when i found out that i could not apply any of the masks to lets say a warrior even though they would fit perfectly.

Therefore i suggest that we get another equipment slot separate from the head one where we can apply face paint for our characters, enabled for every profession and make it so that they are visible even if you got a helm or hat on your head.

The face masks are purely for vanity and does not provide any stats.

After having played this WvWvW a small while now i started to notice that nobody ever decided to attack Ascension Bay from the water.

At first i though it was mainly because “every one” seems to despise water combat, but after getting a bit bored I decided to swim to the 2 walls standing partially in the water. And it was when i attacked them i finally understood why.

Its not that people tries to avoid water combat but apparently it is because the walls cant get attacked from the water.
I tried both my auto attack (which gave me the obnoxious “obstructed” message)
and aoe attack (which didn’t seem to do any harm at all)…
Though i don’t know if a trebuchet or other siege siege equipment is required to attack the walls.

I don’t get it… Here we have a Fortress which is covered in 50% water, and has a entrance/exit in the water, but no way to directly attack the same way? Even though it blatantly got 2 walls with health there as well as guards shooting you down if you take your head out of the water…

So… Is this a bug? Or is it working as intended?

It is fairly obvious that the Skritt are the Smartest race in game.

While Asura and Charr are somewhat equal since the Asura i doomed if someone makes an MMP or AMP ( Magical magnetic Pulse/ Alchemical magnetic pulse)…

6.5/10 Charryl sounds a bit to close to charr and Dinkleberry sounds like something that is more fitted for an Sylvari.

First i have to say that the new mini dungeons are a Blast (with the exception of the swamp…).

Though i somewhat have a bad feeling that LFG fractals might end up as Wrath WoW Raids.

And that was the obnoxious demand of required achievements to get into the raids.

In other words.
You needed the raid achievement, to get into the raid, to get the achievement and gear to be able to do the achievement.

And this will only end up with new players not being able to do the new dungeon since they don’t have a high enough Fractial lvl to join any group.

Don’t really know how the Fractial lvling works but i think i would be best to not decrease the maximum fractial you can do based on the one that have the lowest difficulty in the party.

So that someone with only lvl 1 can still join in at lvl 20 and when they are done they gain 1 lvl like usual.

PS: Sorry for cases of bad English.

I recently went through Dissea Plateau wher ei spottet that the Karma vendors sold 3 different items sets, 1 for each armor type. Soi bought them all and learned them but when i lookat the crafting screen i just cant find the learned items anywhere.

The Cloth set requires 50 lvl in tailoring and i got +120 so i know it isnt my crafting lvl somethings is wrong with.

Was just doing crafting and looking at some of the armors i could creat. And then i though why not add the ability to sample the armor designs, Somewhat working as Salvaging but instead of just destroying the items for mats, you destroy it for he design so that you have it “archived” incase you ever whan that spesific design or looks again.

Edit: Though i thought it could work that the design where soulbound or account bind so that they are more like arcived collectables which you can just use a few mats to craft whenever you want that look again. Since this could make so that itemhoarders dont have to clogg up their bank because they like the looks of some items.

(Finally been waiting a while for the “General” forum to appear)

When Guild wars 2 first was showed to the public it caught my eyes fairly quickly, and when it finally was closing in on launch i decided to purchase the CE.

When i finally got it i was mainly pleased and surprised with the sher size of the Rythlock Statue, and quickly went through the rest of the box to discover that it had all a CE should have, an art book, statue or vanity item and the “soundtrack”, well almost.

Finally having looked through the whole box it was time to take a look at the soundtrack and it is here my dissapointment struck. At first glance everything seemed fine untill i saw the text “Best of GW2” something which i had not noticed earlier when i ordered it. I look at the back of cd cover only to see 6 songs there. So i though to myself “Surley there has to be more music from the game”, so i put it into computer and played it of only to find out it was prety much just the main themes for each race…

Then i looked through the rest of the box to find som extra information and found a 5$ Discount card inside for the full soundtrack +unreleased tracks. Which it turns out is a 4 disc box which costs 30$. It is here i get fairly annoyed on the whole ordeal.

Im sorry but i find this fairly inexcusable. If A-net actually wanted the extra 25$-30$ they should have included it on the CE along with the full soundtrack. But instead there is just a teaser with a “gift card” which feels like a poor excuse to earn more money. Instead it have caused me to be more motivated to turn to piracy instead.

This is purely personal opinion. Why am i getting disappointment of this?
Its becuase i am a person who prefer soundtracks and OST’s from various shows, animes, games rather than mainstream music.
Why exactly this?
Its because i find it more pleasing and entertaining to hear the music built around a universe, since puts my mind and imagination to work, dreaming and “living” into the fictional universe and puting the emotions to work.

But again i am fairly pleased with both the Statue (though i would have preferd if the statue was hard plastic but it is understandable that it’s soft due to all the pointy parts.) and the artbook which contains beatifull artwork, and Kudos for the 3d designers that have managed to replicate the artowork ingame and for last thanks the composer for making the beatifull sounds of GW2.

Sorry for spelling and gramatical errors.
And sorry if i have broken any codes of conducts in this post.
