Guild Wars 2

In picture 1, that’s not even all of them.

Appears it is still going on. Heh.

Being spawn camped while SBI gets to drink milk and eat chocolate chip cookies whilst Big Daddy fights for them.

Wow… I was wondering how we caught up so much overnight. Apparently we were cheating.

To be fair, it’s more like you got into the van with the guy offering you candy.

Except they actually got candy, and not kitten d and murdered. (wow that filter)

Vapour.7348:

Planning on migrating to a T1 server.

I’m the type that supports the underdog instead of following the bandwagon.

Lol.

I can take comfort in the fact SoS beat SBI before Big Daddy stepped in to fight for the Little Sister

Spurnshadow.3678:

If your server is outmanned, then THAT IS THE ISSUE, NOT BLOODLUST. You should be beseeching Anet to fix population issues. If you’re server is in a very unbalanced match, then IT DOESN’T MATTER THAT BLOODLUST GIVES 1 POINT OR 3. You are going to loose. Transfer servers, or blow up the forums asking them to come up with a solution for population balance. Screwing up bloodlust for even population server matches is not how you fix things.

Wow, bloodlust has flown so far over your head it boggles the mind how that ever happened.

It also gives a boost to raw stats. Do you understand?

If you’re already losing due to numbers (Are you following?)
and those bigger numbers also have a stat increase (Still following?)
it makes fighting impossible. Do you understand?

The enemy that is already winning due to having more players (stacked, fair weather) does not need to have a stat boost.

Bloodlust has a negative impact on wvw. Do you understand?

The first time I ever did a dungeon in GW2, was 14 months ago, as a Ranger. In Ascalonian Catacombs. That was THE WORST experience I have ever had in any dungeon in any game.

The mechanics were utterly broken. How does a ranged weapon not hit the burrows? Shooting above it and missing? I literally LOATHED the thought of ever doing a dungeon again because of that one broken experience with your hilariously broken mechanics.

Of course time went on, I did other dungeons with ranger, or went warrior to make life easy etc.

Today, for the first time in 14 months. I decided to muck around with range in AC, pistol thief to be exact, just because I felt like doing something different.

Try to shoot the burrows. Nope. Same laughably broken mechanic exists. Shooting at nothing, doing nothing.

I don’t understand how this problem still exists. Thank you for bringing back haunting memories of release anger at poor mechanics and poor game design.

Back to melee facetanking.

Oh lol.

Originally it clipped with my thighs too, but when I was using Total Makeover Kit I noticed 1-2 body types didn’t have clipping. Not sure if any Norn ones do you’d have to check it out.

Skroo.1560:

Hooray for 90% of replies completely missing the point of the OP.

The point is this:

You can twink a level 2 harder than a level 60 and that doesn’t seem to make sense. It had nothing to do with him killing 80’s that were nooblords.

No traits, no utilities, no weapon swap.

No worries.

The bonus precision now fluctuates depending on your current downlevel.

Josh Davis.6015:

Hey Sevelniumus,

Good catch. I forwarded this to the team.

Thanks!

Maybe pass on getting a qa department, and a testing server.

Magitech with duelist top.

Say no to trenchcoats.

Has it really been a year with no fix?

Mystery.7392:

Stop changing the map everytime you see us @ SoS

Well I’m assuming you’re running a 80 man zerg train, with 40 IRON being hammer warriors, verse a 25 man SoS pug train.

Big boy!

Aurust.8961:

Wick.1280:

After fighting a few SoR…. I’m not impressed

Let’s swap some pics then….. ill go first

Nice pic, they’re all invaders, and all wearing default level 2 gear. You’re a big boy!

DPS guards are already fine.

Guards are fine as a class.

Rangers need more work.

Stop being selfish guardians.

It’s a very good idea.

This game needs to work towards making build switching and experimentation an easy and accessible prospect. Not some impossible time gated grind.

In no particular order:

1. Dungeon environments that are expansive, beautiful/stunning, filled with traps and the occasional random treasure.

Not these small/narrow GW2 dungeons that are: Move into room 1, kill this, move to room 2, kill this, move to next room 3, kill this, now face tank the boss, loot!

GW1 dungeons had a tonne more variety and mechanics and the dungeons weren’t linear. GW2 dungeons are too streamlined/linear/boring facerolls, it is such a shame.

2. Challenge in the game. 8 orb Liadri achieve was great.

3. Zerging to be removed in its entirety

4. Everything in the game that is “soul bound” to be “account bound”

5. Established lore to return to the game. Epic story to return. Not theme-park elections/parties in lions arch.

6. Get Rangers out of alpha test already, the game has been officially released for over a year.

7. Weapon dyes

8. Guild halls

9. Better guild utilities (See when members were last online being #1, seeing 2+ guild chats at once)

10. Grinding/impossible precursor RNG to be toned down by about 5000 percent. To name the latest, this Halloween grind is insane.

11. PvE/WvW locker

12. Stop the vertical progression and stat/power creep. (Ascended armour, guard leech/applied fortitude, borderland bloodlust)

13. Runes impacting build choices, not simply complimenting a build.

14. Reduce the recent +health of world events. Lots of health does not make things harder, it makes it boring. (Havn’t done a world event outside of Teq for close to a month now.)

15. Better loot for high level fractals

16. Quality of life improvements for the mouse cursor. In “high action” fights I’m convinced the cursor literally goes on vacation, throwing the mouse around in large circles hoping to see the cursor moving literally doesn’t work.

17. When an incredibly large population of your players say “Do not introduce W, we never asked for it and it is going to ruin X, Y, Z aspects of the game.” – to realistically consider their concerns.

18. Removal of diminishing returns (It punishes the player for playing the game, and DR on mob drops doesn’t punish bots, it punishes players again)

19. RNG to not be such an overwhelming factor of this game (Yeah I mentioned RNG already).

20. More UI customization by the user. I personally would like customize enemy name tags in WvW.

Example: “Sanctum of Rall Bronze Invader [TAGG]” Is stupidly long, their mega blobs are a kittening mess to look at.

I’d like to customize it to be something like:
Green names to be XXX Invader [TAGG]
Red names to be OOO Invader [TAGG]
Blue names to be ///// Invader [TAGG]

So my screen isn’t a complete cluster crap of misinformation!

And obviously there would be a character limit for customized ones, of say 8-10 letters, to avoid people abusing a custom tag like W spam or M spam, to see players that are hiding more easily.

Yeah I posted more than 5

I tried to click the overflow “Continue” button in the screenshot… what is wrong with me.

Leg specialist was reverted to its unnerfed state of no recharge, without any mention.. so its likely they somehow goofed.. I noticed this trait seemed wrong as well.

Moment of truth.

You could auto attack leg specialist before the patch, meh.

Wethospu.6437:

The game must be in pretty good shape if people complain about stuff like this.

Or it could be because its some of the last bit of fun gone?

Unneccesary change.

Ps. GOSU, was removed from all other classes too, also unneccessary

Cannot use warrior greatsword 3 or axe 5, or even shield 4, to have a bit of fun with the animation locks.

It is bad enough you removed the other classes ability to do this months ago.

Thank you for removing harmless fun from the game. Real smooth move. Definitely makes the game more enjoyable.

Gap between SBI and SoS is closing. Cmon SBI you said you were going to beat us, at this rate we’ll be second. Please don’t tell me you are trying to minimize the difference like this just so you can sink into silver?

Timeline:
- No one asked for bloodlust, or ever suggested anything like it
- Bloodlust is announced, people say NO
- Bloodlust comes in and gets played around with, people still say NO
- People keep saying NO!
- Bloodlust gets reworked, 60% reduction.

In the future, the next big patch:
- Bloodlust has been removed

Yay! Finally.

Best thing to happen to wvw in a long time, relieves the monotony.

Instead of watching the SoR band wagon blob its way around our towers/keeps, they don’t come at all!

It’s not really free wxp and tokens.. considering 99% of the people in wvw are now camping, or scared to move. What it is, is actually an effective counter to karma trains.

4+ hours later, a response!

Great mesmer fights all!

ColinJohanson.2394:

Great stuff Leeroy, really appreciate you taking the time to both spell out your suggestions and provide strong reasoning for why we should do them =)

Keep it comin!

The good ideas (Emotes, weapon dyes, skin locker) in that post have been brought up from launch.

Keep it comin!

Ps asura already have the advantage in wvw/pvp, by being small and hidden, should be deleted as a race imo, or converted into humans in wvw/pvp.

Renn.8241:

Anyway these are just ideas and I’m sure there is alot of input on the matter, I’m no game designer but I play alot – gamers are the best people to spot good and fun changes usually, speak up!!

You should probably make this your last suggestion ever.

No

Adren 1: 8 hits
Adren 2: 10 hits
Adren 3: 12 hits

Combat log says 11 hits when using 3 adrenaline bars.

And the animation is only 8 hits. Graphical errors suck!

Zephyrus.9680:

If sPvP was more about fighting and less about capping points, I would play it…

That statement makes no sense.

To win, you need 500 points, the best way to get points is capping, hence capping is a valuable commodity, and because of this, there are ALWAYS fights. As opposed to wvw where 95% of the players run away like cowards.

Don’t get me wrong I like both game modes, but spvp provides real fights, not babies running away or perma stealth thieves. Stealth all you want in spvp, you’ll lose.

Have No Faith In Me.1840:

Funny…. all this time I’ve had the mindset that upscaled characters are free bags.

Why do I kill upscaled players without any effort?

Your thread makes upscale sound really overpowered, fact is in game, it is garbage.

My lvl 4 with 2100 condition dmg says hi.

/wave
/pick up loot bag
/hold a candlelight vigil mourning the loss of a character so young

^ well your opinion is wrong. @Noir.9218

For the future development of this game, it is worth noting that runes of perplexity opened up different build options and play styles.

While they were overpowered against noobs and average players, it has shown us that anet can create runes that promote build diversity, and even give unused traits and weapons new life.

Nobody runs p/p thieves, yet I was, and I won almost every 1v1(couldn’t beat perplex mes, op :p), and was winning 1v2 and 1v3’s more often than not. I defecated all over d/p thieves, and that’s exactly the direction the game needs to go in, promoting build diversity, especially ones that can counter the meta, without shifting the meta.

So look into updating the old rune sets somewhere along this level, that gives players more options to create different builds. Runes currently complement a build, of which there aren’t many (decent ones), instead of help create builds.

Even with a 10 sec ICD I don’t see this stopping me from destroying d/p thieves and a lot of other cheesy meta builds any time soon.

SoR sitting on 3 bloodlust for the majority of the last couple of hours. Good work anet.

Wasn’t there the whole time, but when I was, all the siege you can see was manned and spamming, + players and an AC out the front.

Stay classy SoR.

CHIPS.6018:

Imo, underwater combat should be full on action and reflexes. It should be played at a much faster pace than ground combat.

Faster than ground combat? You ever tried playing water polo? Or even watched it? Compare that to any sport on “ground”, ground is always faster, water is restrictive. Hell, look at volleyball, compare playing it on a court, to in a pool, you CANNOT move anywhere near as quickly in water.

inb4 “why bring RL into it?”

Lothirieth.3408:

Have No Faith In Me.1840:

Items you find/loot/pick up, have no value unless you sell or trade it.

Items you buy with gold, have value.

^ Perspective. Mine and others. People have a different one to you.

Cheap shot: we enjoy ourselves more.

Facts sorta get in the way of “perspectives”. This is one of those times you’re just flat out wrong. :P

I used to think the same way, so I get it. Then my boyfriend educated me on opportunity costs. Now I realise the way I was thinking was wrong. Not a big deal really.

There is no right and wrong.

And “opportunity costs” are still a perspective, a hypothetical idea, not a fact. All it is looking at 2 different options to what I do. Do you take the red pill, or the blue pill?

- Me: “Will I use this item, or sell it and make money?”

- Your boyfriend “I looted a herb worth 5s! …..But if I use it I’m losing money, if I sell it I’m getting money”.

One is short, concise, to the point, back to playing.

The other is over thinking the smallest of things, and those people end up being hoarders in games (If not life too), their bank is filled with junk, they hold onto the money they have, never spending it, just stockpiling, and they never actually play the game. Every item they pick up has negative connotations attached to it.

Edit:
If you read over page 1/2, and see all the people saying “every item you use is costing you money”, you can see from their post that they are deeply disturbed individuals that do not know how to play a game for fun, they make it a chore/work, it is incredibly sad, and they fit perfectly into my above description.

Lets get some proper kitten talking going on.

SoR, SBI, this is Shae Shadowmeld, if we meet, I am sorry for your untimely demise.

You’ll need to bring a friend or two.

It just happened =\

I’ve decided that whenever we’re vsing TC i’ll be exploiting arrow carts and then spam /laugh at them.

TC do it all the time, it is sickening.

TC motto: “Cant break our way in? We’ll exploit our way in!”

Not sure how to interpret this.

Trading post is demand driven so that can’t be it.

You mentioned karma pieces should be cheaper. Let’s say half cost.

Are you also saying crafted and forged weapons should require half of the materials 2h do?

What about legendaries?

Pretty much the reason I haven’t played ranger in wvw for a very very long time.

As soon as thief or mes goes stealth, continuing to hold down right click for even 0.01 second after targeting is lost causes your arrows to now shoot into the ground, yaaaaaay. It’s soooo baaad.

Honestly I can’t see a fix without it turning into something broken (not in a good way) like ballista split shot trait.

The only option is to switch to melee and go nuts.

While flamethrower etc are good at this, it is only on flat land. You cannot aim at targets above or below you, they only fire horizontally. Now make short bow and long bow only fire horizontal…. lots of problems.

Sorry yeah I did see it, I see your point, just didn’t think it was worth a post just to say I understand :p

Well of course it is going to grow when it is in its baby phase. How long it takes to reach the peak of the mountain before crossing down the other side is something that remains to be seen. Hopefully not for a long time but who knows.
