What Happened to New Skills and Traits?

Most classes have been using the same 3 utilities and elite, and mostly the same weapon sets for a year now. Plus a lot of the current builds have been around in some form since Beta. It’s getting boooooring.

What Happened to New Skills and Traits?

I’m gonna go team A-net just this once and say…hey at least they finally made traits and skill and rune/signet tooltips understandable and clearly state what they modify and how much. New skills will be good but the uselessly incoherent info on the old tooltips was a constant irritant and that’s fixed. So HUZZAH!

The new tooltips are better than the old ones? Using only information available in-game – What’s the cooldown on Defy Pain?

Random sky-pirates and pretending a world-boss just appeared when people have farmed it daily since launch isn’t exactly thriller story telling.

Expansion Woes....

in Living World

Posted by: Grumpdogg.6910

Grumpdogg.6910

So much time and effort is being spent (wasted?) on pushing out temporary content every 2 weeks, I doubt that we will see something on the scale of a new fully-fledged area of the map next year.

Multiple permanent new zones, a new race and a new class are things that people would normally associate with an expansion. It’s hard to see the Living Story delivering that in the foreseeable future.

They didn’t come to help the server when there were no rewards worth mentioning and no attainable achievements. PvErs aren’t going to stay after they’ve farmed the latest flavour of the month.

This means we have to get one world rank every day for 7 weeks. The only people who will be able to attain this are regular WvWers, the same ones who are in dedicated WvW guilds.

Sound’s perfect to me. Please go back to PvE.

as long as people remember one thing.

The North-East point lies on the fastest route from Garrison to Hills so expect a zerg there at any time.

The South-East point provides trebuchet positions so expect zergs there.

The Southern point provides trebuchet positions so expect zergs there too.

Holding a Bloodlust buff provides the zerg with a significant power boost, so expect a zerg…

4-3 to IRON defeating KH. The 6th round was an epic fight, one of the best I’ve seen. Unfortunately KH forfeited the final round when many guild spectators rushed the field. There was no need for that poor sportsmanship to ruin an otherwise great game.

KH also running stacking sigils, please correct that for next time. Also it’s better if the teams swap starting positions, but KH refused.

Hope to see some more matches this week.

I think people are letting the tail wag the dog. The game is supposed to have new content for when you log on. You should not be logging on because the game has new content. There is nothing in the living story chapters that you cannot afford to miss.

And when you come back to the game and the economy is massively inflated because everyone else was hardcore farming and you didn’t…..then what?

Posted by: Grumpdogg.6910

Grumpdogg.6910

Hey everybody,

In the best interests of all involved, we have decided to move the GvG organizational thread over to the In-game events subforum instead of its usual home in the WvW discussion forum. The impetus for this change is primarily due to the ongoing, negative conflict between the WvW and GvG communities. We feel the hostility between these two groups detracts from both the GvG thread and WvW topics and requires a disproportionate amount of moderator attention.

The In-game Events subforum will be a good fit for the GvG organization thread, as it is an ongoing, player-organized in-game activity and therefore fits well into the intended purpose of that forum. For other related discussion of GvG that does not fall under the general organization thread, please use the Guild Wars 2 Discussion subforum.

You have literally no idea about this community.
