Mounts are not needed in this game due to the large number of waypoints in each zone and are a hinderance to other players. 1 EXAMPLE: mounted player(s) obstructing access to needed NPC’s(possible to troll others)

The drop system gets me down. Too much RNG, you can go many kills without any drop and for some classes where fights can take a while this is a real problem. Not everyone zergs or goes full zerker and can kill everything in 2-5 seconds so as I said this can make random killing or any attempts at farming certain mats very sad for some people.
It is also a very boring system…
The game is about what can be bought in the gem store not about what can be EARNED as a reward.

The above described scenario would be awesome. While we’re there, since it’s FotM, they should add loot to the mobs as it’d be timed and you couldn’t just farm it.
Then that would undermine this games direction by giving us the ability to EARN loot.

The game is balanced around 5 players. It is really as simple as that.
The bigger the party-sizes are the harder stuff will be to balance. And it will also mean it takes longer and longer to actually get a group together if you don’t play with guildies/friends.
And this was also rather clear long before launch and have been fully available since then, so it is really your own fault for not reading up on the game before buying it.
What balance, we need party of 8 for best balance.

The fact that NCSoft is tied in any way, shape or form to this game.
GW1 is and has been tied to them as well and I find it 10X better than GW2, so, I don’t really think that is the problem, or, have they decided to turn GW2 into a gambling MMORPG.

It would be nice if the ability to save and store various trait and utility templates easily in game so you can quickly switch between them.
Sort of how you could save the skill combinations in GW 1
Been brought up and suggested several times in the past year+ and I couldn’t agree more. Just another of the best of GW1 NOT in GW2. HOPEFULLY "the authority” will start listening closely to the playerbase and these things get addressed.

They were there before those events came about and they will be there when those events are gone. That’s their home. When ANet places an event in a site, they don’t delete any mobs there. They remain and keeping an eye on them is part of combat and situational awareness.
Good answer, +1.

I hope they wont be making any more games.
After all this time in BugWars2 it feels like they are stealing our money.
I’ve yet to see a 60$ game that got updates and bugfixes in such a frequent manner as GW2 did
Since when? There are still bugs present since release and every LS introduction just adds more bugs that only compounds those bugs already in place and makes room for more bugs to be left unattended to.
Blackgate Megaserver – [LaZy] Imperium of LaZy Nation

Tons of stuff changed. Most classes have had their annoying bugs fixed, WvW has had a bunch of QoL updates, a new armor tier has been added, and plenty of content has been added in the past year or so (along with existing content being, for the most part, bug free). You’ll figure it out as you go. Welcome back!
Just because there are shops that sell used video games doesn’t make it legal to do, the GW2 EULA says you can’t.
Here in the UK it is perfectly legal to sell any commodity you own, including games. EULAs have no legal standing over here because 1) You cannot legally sign away your statutory rights (which many EULAs actually require you to do if you read the small print) and 2) you are never presented with an EULA until after you have purchased your game, which means the end user is perfectly entitled to ignore it. Licensing terms have to be presented prior to money changing hands, not after.
Kewl for you blokes.

No, you don’t. You can buy it, use it and then sell it. You can not do that when you rent.
Read the Guild Wars 2 EULA “again”, you rented an account until Anet says so.
And no explanations will be given upon termination.
Do read them, I am sure there’s something about applicable law in most, if not all EULA’s. I can sell my copy of a game no matter what you think about it. We have shops buying and reselling used games and software.

For me the simple answer is yes, but, there is another item that needs to go and that is the LS and have full expansions, also, all the bugs that have been in-game since release needs to be fixed along with all the ones introduced and compounded by the LS updates and i’m still waiting for “the best of GW1 to be added to GW2”.

Even clunky, outdated old GW1 had a Quest-Log/Journal of sorts that kept track of things. Why is this not in new state of the art GW2. Can we say that this is “One of the best things of GW1 that SHOULD BE in GW2”?

I’ve been wondering about the legality of “off-mapping”. If you’re just looking around, is it a bannable offense? Do we have any official word on this sort of thing?
Well, considering that a DEV had posted a comment(youtube video) about the video I mentioned about the one in Caledon Forest I would venture to say no(about this one only though).

I like the idea of the slayer achieves being incorporated with the slayer potions. I also wish some of those slayer achievements could be equipped as titles….I mean, c’mon, who wouldn’t want “indiscriminate slayer” hovering over their heads?
I really like the title idea, +1.

There ARE hush, hush areas of Tyria. Here is one in Caledon Forest that was found in June of 2013 and is without doubt an unfinished project even with interactable areas, I have been there a couple times but I suck at jumping so only explored areas I could get to easily.
I can’t for the life of me figure out how to imbed this so here is the link, check it out for your viewing pleasure. Not sure if this area is still accessable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVLK-_wNsTM

The only Slayer achievement I need now are Giants having 28 done, only 972 to go. LOL
What I find rediculous is that you need 1000 of these dummies and can only find 4 max, of those 1 spawns over and over the other 3(this number depends on party size) are dependent on doing a pre-requisite to spawn. I can’t see farming this so I just casually do them when I notice they are up and will take many, many months to complete.

i dont need more achievementpoints for the tiers beyond 1000 but i just want to KNOW
same for the “Master of the Overkill” achievement…
its ridicoulus 300.000 damage needed…
i hit for over 2 million already and im sure i can get higher when using full zerk/scholar runes/ 25 might/150 power from warrior trait/ 30-10-0-0-30 trait for warrior/ str and discipline banner/ signet of might / +200 strength +10% crit dmg food/ 10% dmg bonus from ranger spirit and fully ascended equipment with 10% dmg sigil
and then hit an animal with your lvl 80 char…
could be 3 million i guess
((Boggles)) Two… million?
I have Master of Overkill from a Wall of Reflection dropped behind me after running through the midst of about 18 young karka, so that’s 300,000+ against 80th level, armored targets, but two million??!?!!
The 2 mill hit was against an ambient creature, I have close to that.

Yes, but in regard of itds look, just for Engineers.
And to clarify it, this pick is in absolute no way P2W.
People should get this out of their heads and learn ,what real P2W means …
Real P2W means, that you get fundamental advantages over other players, if you buy somethign from an Ingame Shop. Things, that make your character alot more powerful and in something alot better, than a character, which doesn’t have what you’ve bought in the shop.
The pick doesn’t make your character fundamentally better.. a character with this pick won’t have instantly like 10000 more HP or a character won’t gain with that pick money each time you use it and not just only a few copper, but also a few silver
A pick like this won’t increase your boon durations or condition durations, it will never ever have any impact on anythign in the game, that is combat relevant and thus could be used to win over other players much easier, than normal.
This is is NOT P2W!!
So I cansign only, to what Millionaires said.
people here are like crybabies, not having a slightest clue about what they are talking, they simply cry after something like a lemming, because somebody said something is P2W from that they personally think, that person has more clues than they self, so what they say “must be right”, when it is absolutely not, but that false information spreads out like a plague quickly…
1) Those getting them from the TP are BUYING THEM.
2) Someone with the pick or a home node are getting them FREE
1 = P2Wif player is to lazy or uninterested in doing the pre-requisite.
2 = FREEor still free by playing/completing a pre-requisite.

That is by choice. It is not required for you to buy the new one. There are other means of getting the sprockets. The old pick works fine as it was advertised originally.
The previous pick was advertised as “The last pick you’ll ever buy”, so best in slot for all eternity. And it was priced accordingly, as for a full set of them you’d almost pay the price of a full game.
Now there is another pick that is better. Thus my original purchase is wasted and worthless as it is no longer best in slot.
It is SO WRONG for the reason stated by Challa.7146 when “the authority” stated in their own words for the last pick that was released as being “The last pick you’ll ever buy” affectively declaring it as being best in slot. Doesn’t anyone else besides Challa and myself not remember this.

Perhaps it’s another strike against Rangers, but #4 stops channeling after 2-3 seconds, even when not being attacked or hitting any buttons yourself. Luckily your pet can pick you up, but if other classes are able to continue to channel and rez, then this would be a bug on the Ranger front.. would it not?
I just tested this to confirm and yes, it stops channeling after 3s or so.
That must be a problem on your end because the #4 downed skill has never stopped on me(all I play is ranger) unless I am hit while it’s active.
