Guild Wars 2

funny chocolate and cinnamon does grow on trees. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolate http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinnamon I always thought that the cook should be able to process some foods to acquire others, like butter could be extracted from buttermilk.

“The Blood is the Life…And It Shall Be Mine” thinking of Gary Oldman in Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
If its alive it should bleed and see that brings up all kinds of things that go against bleeding as to which the Orreians are undead, not alive. But that is to say, I do not know the lore which accounts for the movement of blood in their veins.

Yes a mechanical device can bleed, my car mechanic refers to Oil as the Life Blood of the car, so I have no resistance if referring to it as bleeding to death as with any other mechanical device, without its precious blood it will die.

And with that said …..Corrosion.
I think should be an entirely different type of Damage over time effect from the right type of condition. But we know that corrosion can happen by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the presence of water or air moisture, Rust. And by definition of corrosion : Corrosion is the gradual destruction of material, usually metals, by chemical reaction with its environment.

So maybe that doesn’t work when you apply the real world to the game world but maybe add a different type of condition, akin to acid, then you could have a corrosion that could do the damage type needed to apply the rapid effect which is to not punish the people who spec highly in conditions. But ACID could be used against living tissue with devastating effects too. Imagine that same acid placed in the eyes of your opponent, you could get another condition from it Blindness.

All in all condition builds need some attention to this matter.

BAZiiNGA.7089:

nonononooonon thats not the only way.

you’re not using the recipes you buy from the master jeweller.

It only takes 2-4 discovery (672 karma per) to go from 375 to 400.

DONT LISTEN TO URTV.

OP says: that he doesn’t want to level with Ecto.
URTVsays: that is the only way.
You say:to buy the recipes from the master jeweler vendor.
I say: the Recipes make you use Ecto.

please elaborate on the discoveries@672karma per a little more, so I can understand clearly what you mean?

Red Falcon Punch!

Banewrath.5107:

What exactly do you get for the little points you get when you complete slayers lines and stuff?

you know it would be funny if later on he was all decked out in GW3 with all the goodies from the “Display Case of Commemoration”

when I seen the title I thought you wanted to combine them into one item, which I would be for, except the breakage of gathering with a single item instead of 3.

Yes they have a something like that in the real world here is a video demonstration …
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b60OZhrTB6o when you read the title on youtube you will laugh, then when you see what all they use it for you will see what I am talking about.

Erin.7521:

I would happily pay the same price as the charr plushie for a baby quaggan one as they are just adorable.

I sadly think a combo package of a real world and in game item would not work. A plushie is real item with real costs attached so the money has to be garunteed, after all they can’t pay their suppliers in gold! The in game mini however, would need to be available in game and as such it would have to sell for in game currency. A shame I know as I very much want both to be added so they can take my money, but I can’t see them being able to be purchased together.

Some people are just not visionaries, I guess. ;P

TheUndefined.1720:

2200gems for both is way overpriced. You can digitally upgrade your entire account for close to that amount. 550gems for the mini in game pet, 1500gems for the combo.

(I’m sorry if this is double posting, no idea why or how to fix it. )

Oh I am sorry, I was thinking the plush was not coffee mug size but more like pillow size just a bit smaller.

I would like to be able to trade the items that come out of BLC for gems, so I can get other items I really want.

I know there would have to be some kind of downscaling ratio, but on items I feel that I have no need for, I could get bigger ticket items with the gems I would get from them.

Also Anet could see “what items” people don’t really care about.

Anyway thoughts, approvals, improvements to the idea, or disagreements….discuss!

I want the mini, the plush would go to my youngest daughter though.
And for special animations on the mini(what do you want them to do) “Maybe Rage Berserk” ever so often!
And if you are gonna price them, then you need to speak in terms of gems, so as a combo deal 2200gems for both or 700gems for the mini and 1500gem for the plush.

yeah none of the options truly depict what the person is doing by sending you said such mail.
I think instead of a report button they should have a “forward” to send it straight to anet. no need to second guess how to report …kill em all let Anet sort them out!

Edit: and now they added in the last patch, the best option in the report drop down menu “gold seller”

Only if you die ,you die permanently!

I always love the fact that peeps be saying that is does not fit the game and right in the game we have images like this http://cghub.com/images/view/289860/

http://cghub.com/images/view/289858/

They don’t want you coming in and doing all the work …for example

You are level 80 and you come into a level 10 area and do Dynamic events, oh but the level 10’s in the area don’t get nothing for doing the event cause you took it away from them killing the mob with a one shot.

They want you to be able to group with a friend that just started a new toon or a friend that just started …for example

In other MMO’s you kill everything for the friend and he levels fast, so fast he doesn’t know how to play his toon right, later he gets in a dungeon and everyone ridicules him for his lack of performance, later at night, he cries into his pillow.

I like the system, But to me, I do like the idea of feeling more powerful too.

What about a compromise: Lets say if you are 20 levels higher, the mobs are afraid of you and don’t attack you outright, unless its a dynamic event or some other thing that needs participation instead of a slaying. Of course you can initiate a attack on any mob in the area and you will still be downscaled to the area , but you can pick the fights you want to have .

Of course even though I make the suggestion, I can see fault with it…for example

People are running around and nothing is attacking them and the level 10’s of the area are struggling with an attack of more mobs than he can handle and you come though and say “oh well” and keep on going instead of helping. Or a person is downed and you say “oh shinny ore” and step over his corpse and don’t bother helping him up cause that might cause aggro.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/Level-80-Experience/first#post153392 already got a use

Never should it ever have it so that mobs have spawn points on top of a waypoints…
I know contested waypoints are in the game …well I think the waypoints that can be contested should have a slightly different look to them,so people don’t make the mistake of going afk on them …. coming back to discover you’re dead and Naked cause every piece of gear u have is now broke…

let 10 to 25 players get on a boat leaving from LA that goes out to deep sea area and we try to fish up the Deadliest Catch “aka a huge Fish” ….I don’t know, maybe harpoons and special rigging on the boat make for special mechanics for landing this grand daddy of a fish. Introduce recipes to “cook” said meat and some titles to prove we are not Chicken of the Sea. Remember that there is always a bigger fish, so be ready for some underwater combat too.

I noticed in alot of other mmo’s that trash mobs are weaker and don’t really have mechanics to make them die …pretty much beat them down and they are usually your size.
When you get to a “Boss” though you can tell that it is so, because he towers over the group, the size of this kind of mob is very discernible. He will usually require some kind of mechanic to successfully make a kill.
What I really liked about those fights is, I can see what needs to be avoided …alot of indicators are more revealing when the entire group can see the pose that he takes or the lighting bolts that are now coming out of the lower extremities. And there is some kind of learning curve to one shot mechanics where you start taking damage and you have a small but doable amount of time to move out of the damage.
Now in GW2 there are these kind of encounters , but usually they are just a Zerg-fest a dps race for the group.
I find it hard to see the smaller boss encounters that are more prevalent, because these guys are our size and a lot of magic spells are going off and melee is right next to them too.

Esorono.1039:

Transmutation stones.

exactly^^^

So instead of asking for the gear to be level 80 why not ask for all token, badge and karma gear have the same system on them as the dynamic level of the toon…in other words if you are playing in level 10 area your 80 toon is leveled for that area…so gear should go up in level in the appropriate area (only gear from token, badges or karma) level 35 gear should go up to level 80 gear?!?!

I say we should go on strike ….I mean we are already standing around the entrances like “We are already on strike” , except we do not have picket signs.

Seriously can a GM explain how the current setup is supposed to work. I went to wiki trying to see how it works and nothing was on there yet except this which tells nothing on how its function operates http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Contacts_panel what do you type in the search bar? All I ever got was an error saying that player is not online, does not exist or something like that….

At least some of the nay sayers could agree that the current group finder is not worth trying to get it to work…as I have never seen anything lit up.

I found out though one of my own post see here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/After-80-what-happens-to-the-Exp/first#post144793 that there are big rewards for skill points…you do not want to turn it off, well at least till you check out the possible rewards.

Thanks for the reply’s

I know in a lot of MMO’s after you attain the level cap, all of your exp. that you would normally get from quests and kills is then turned into a small amount of gold. A pay check if you will.
Since I have not reached 80 yet, I don’t know the answer to this question, anyone noticed ?

I do not believe what Lil Puppy is correct at all ….see there is this thing called WvW and there is a payoff if your world is winning, the rewards are called Power of the Mists http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Power_of_the_Mists seen here which has a gathering reward…also look here http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Gathering_tool and nothing says that bigger tools equal more gathered . It just notates that if you try to gather from a node ranked higher than the tool you might get ruined pieces.

hey how about they include new dances in the gem store….that everyone can partake in

IWANT GANGNAM STYLE!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bZkp7q19f0

And there is a Lady version too so males get the first one the gals get this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=wcLNteez3c4

One thing I see is that if a LFD tool is “World Based”….the ElitistkittenHats are gonna make black lists on people in the game and make their experience playing the game miserable …
Instead of being helpful and finding out why the person fails and giving advice, so the team can succeed, it will be easier to just kick, add name to list, and be Elite.
Some have already admitted this is in their agenda….

I just want to have fun and sometimes that means you gotta not be the kitten and help other so you all can win.

ok half the original listing fee …and what of the other idea ..would you rather it be that a Undercutter has to do so by a certain percent?

just that; I look at the TP this morning and post my item. I am the only listing it, hour later I have been undercut for 1 copper.

Either allow us to go on a undercut war for free or make it so that if you undercut someone it has to be by a certain percent.

or maybe you could pick a waypoint to be your home and u can go back home for free

Well one thing that nobody brings up is PATHS….each Dungeon has several Paths in explorable, that and a lot of people will want to do all paths to feel like they have completed the dungeon. Now If you have to stand in the front of the Dungeon spamming chat for a group doing X Path, you might never find a group. Because its already happening, certain paths are getting a reputation as UN-finish-able and even if you get a group and go in, at the last second people can opt out of the path agreed to go in the first place.
Now a Dungeon Finder might help person A find person B,C,D, and E who all really really want to do that particular Path.

And NO amount of chat spamming is gonna make people be better or nicer players. Actually I believe it can fuel there malicious intent, I know I feel anger after you talk to people, then in the instance they change their minds. Furthermore; not all people who play this game has 6 hours of game play a day to dedicate to the game, because of our real life. It would be nice some days to get in get it done and get out. (now I will admit that I have played and let the time completely get away from me and payed for it the next day by going to work sleepy) But If I am standing around in the game, I am going to sleep at the keyboard.
I hope that Anet will come up with a better option that will suit the taste of all who participate with the game and their individual play styles and opinions. But for me I hope its for a Dungeon Finder.

edit: Another thing about the idea of a Place to form parties, they had this in GW1 it was called Embark Beach. http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Embark_beach It was a great conceptual failure… people would come in grab the daily Zashien quest and go on. Rarely, very rarely did you ever see someone want to form a group there. If the Zashien Vanguish was for an area… that was the place you would see people spamming chat for a group.

A Dungeon Finder is that “Place” that you form a group." in that place"… why can you not see beyond that fact.

I am starting to think the people who do this are gold farmers who are trying to destroy the Economy …the bot is told to sell everything in the TP for 1 copper over vendor so no one else in the game has a chance to profit and the gold farmers think maybe that people will turn to them for this and in turn steal their accounts yada yada .
I would rather they would lower/remove the 10%cost of selling the item and make the list price go up a bit.
Also it may not be people are sending stuff to the TP from the field since you can relocate crafting mats to the consumables, add a salvage to that and you can keep going for a long time.

anzenketh.3759:

You can already disable tap-to-dodge. It is just not a keybind.

I thought I said that I disabled it so i could do the jumping game ****but here is the kicker, I did not have the time to re-enable it as the Veteran Mob was beating the crap outta me.
I know how to open the option menu and click it …..

I do not like setting it to a button that’s just how my play style evolved …I can’t go back now I have played it to long to just change my play style…

I might add that I tried to re learn using a button and well lets just say its not happening, just like the likelihood of this idea getting approval of the developers.

I want to key bind a button to toggle dodge from being double tap to off or switch to button press and back again ..

Here is my reasoning…I was working on a jumping puzzle, I had to open the menu to turn off double tap dodge to keep from rolling off the sides of the puzzle…then last jump off and as soon as I am on the platform I am attacked by a Veteran type enemy and I can’t react to his attacks die …miss getting the chest, have to do jumping game again if I want rewards.

I would like a better option than the current method. Which makes me want to pose this question: If they said, we can’t run the Trading Post anymore, we are gonna have to go back to the GW1 model of chat spam, how many would love to do that? A LFGtool is just like that, you can compare it to not having the TP. Although the TP is full of idiot’s that are throwing away any chance of making a profit(selling crap at 1 copper over vendor).

I know I am gonna get some backlash for saying this (and let me just go on record by saying “I don’t care if they do or don’t.” “It’s ok like it is.”)) anyway …as long as the mounts are ground based and don’t give a continuous speed boon (much like what we already have)aka you can still get crippled, yanked off …or otherwise just snafooled …then its ok …
Yes, I guess when you mount (and here is the main point)make it able to fight on them much like when you pick a boulder up off the ground, the weapon bar changes to reflect what you can do with that new temporary weapon….I would not mind training new slot skills just for a fighting via a mount. Imagine for a second you get on the mount and a spear is equipped and you can do a joust move with a Centaur, or instead of resurrecting a downed player you have a skill that allows you to drag them back out of arms way. I am sure some of the PvPer’s could get ideas rolling in their heads on how a mounted pvp could play out.

A lot of people want mounts for the prestige of getting something that others can’t get easily, they want to be able to show off the mount in town, so people will be all like that mount is so cool.
And I remember playing GW1 we didn’t get mounts, but a bunch of mobs were in fact riding on a mount and fighting from its back…so I don’t really see why not, just don’t make it so its any better than speed boons we already got.

And for those who say mounts ruin the gold sink they set up with waypoints….you forget the mounts will need to be bought from somewhere and I am sure at a premium price too.

The personal story “suspicious activity” is giving a different ring than the one shown as the reward . The ring given is lesser quality …missing the jewel…
