4, 5, 6, 8, 11, 12, 13, 14 were absolutely garbage

9 might be garbage depending on costume people

everything else was good

imo and as well as many others

who needs boosters, dye packs & a flute anyways—

Geez you are impatient. The month isn’t even done.

They have a plan of what they are releasing every day this month. Most of the time you aren’t going to buy what they list there. Be patient for once.

I will be patient from now I just was proving that there were a few things not worth the purchase

again read the specific aspects of those ideas that were stated by me rather than the OP and consider the affect that would be implemented. Regardless none of this will come to pass and I pointed out your flaws as well as theirs.

I am in agreement with Astral and the idea of a standard trade system. However, the idea of a trade system could come with much abuse of some flaws in the system.

I’m for an item to turn soul bound items into account bound. Only works on soul bound items.

You mean transmutation crystals and splitters?

Wanze your comment does not pertain to Behellagh’s comment.he is not talking about the fusing and splitting of items. He is talking about moving an ITEM not a SKIN. We are talking about a RAW soulbound item which will never be copied of trans’ed.

Splitters are best used on ASCENDED ITEMS so as not to be forced to give up a skin or stats. Individual circumstances have individual needs and should be accommodated rather than ignored.

No Wanze you need to back off of your passive aggressive bashing and refer yourself to the system of Anet’s GW1.

We are talking about an equivalence as to having a skin on a white tier armor that would be account bound to any toon so that you can move it and use it freely.

That is already possible Wanze so back off, this idea should take a more defined shape to suit the community in a more limited way.

skins that originally start as [SKINS] should be able to be moved after you use it.

The community can ask for a skin system similar to GW1 or we can ask that if you use a skin on any item that the item can be account bound rather than soulbound. That would be a good addition for any skin including those that are from the GEM STORE.

NO COPIES OR DUPING but the privilege to move the item it is skinned too freely. (Exotic or Ascended)

Yes it would mean moving ascended armors around without having to gather nearly as much but you already gathered it once and the amount of ascended or exotic armor is still limited to one. Who cares if armor should be revered when skins are supposed to take precedence over everything else as that was the promise from Anet. We were promised that skins and appearance by color or other various things would separate each player. This should be a part of that segregation.

Limited to one for one without the ability to produce infinite items regardless of being account bound.

Transmutation crystals would not be junk and I never mentioned keys. You have less of a chance to get keys from map completion and someone has to buy keys to sell me black lion chest skins.

Keys and Transmutation are individual things while there are countless boosters.

I actually agree with you and I would like to say that if I see a single shirt, another booster or a toy that is already in the shop then I would call it a waste of a sale. Transmutation stones are key items to getting the appearance you desire on your max level character. Keys are important to bringing in new BLTC skins that are similar to a lottery that I would then buy from the TP.

We were originally promised a dynamic range of skin appearances and a game that is not pay2win. That is what people like to have, a well kept promise from an amazing gaming company (y)

Silly? Biased? I never missed a single day of this sale so you can take your biased assumption elsewhere.

Speaking from a social standard with an emphasis on ethical value, people would much rather get boosters from map completion.

Junk would be mystic forge stones, costume pieces that are overshadowed by halloween costumes and boosters.

You think I am complaining about missing a sale? Nope

I dare people to think as you or Stinvec in challenging me. Bring it-

It is true that Anet gets to decide what is on sale and they don’t have to put anything but it is also true that they are over there in their offices voting and discussing what will bring them the most money. They are human just like us and are doing their best to earn money for their company. While some of these sales are worse than others it is also true that some are logically more profitable than others and should be spread out equally throughout the month. That is a common business practice used by businesses everywhere.

Again I never missed a single day of this sale and I was up the minute it changed because it is my goal to be better than everyone else. I want 7 pieces of armor each from a different set and I want them all to be shiny or gem specifically unique. I want full weapon sets for both my Warrior and light weight classes.

As far as bashing people whom are similar to you and would say CONGRATS out of sarcasm towards my recent spending I will say this CONGRATS to me.

Heavy Zodiac
Light Zodiac
Flamewrath
Flamekissed
Kasmeer’s staff
Total Make Over kit

Those are my recent purchases with the intent to NEVER MISS the sale for 2 Marjory’s axes, 2 Marjory’s Daggers, Braham’s Mace & Braham’s Shield.

purely for pve.

I deleted this before but again here it is. Congrats to me-

The other guy is correct I am talking about the skins you wear in combat not as a costume.

Regardless the point of a sale is to earn money and that is the most raw and true fact.

I buy gems with cash rather than using the conversion system- ;|

A similar gem store only sword would be nice, something that is shiny and breathtaking rather than metallic and plain. A sword that yells GEM STORE due to its multiple effects.

possible admin review of Flamekissed?

Johnathan Ralston.5871

Flamewrath & Flamewalker both have gloves that produce flames while Flamekissed does not.

[Flamekissed Vest] is a torso piece that produces its flame on an appendage far away from the core of the body in the general area of the wrist.

Is it fair to ask the the flames be generated from the gloves as the other flame sets also generate them from their gloves.

Examples can be follow a similar unintended guide for effect related clothing following these examples. Gem sets, Radiant sets, Hellfire sets, Chaos gloves, Fused glove, Cultural Asuran, CoF Armor and maybe other various things.

Chest pieces have an effect within the torso while gloves shoulders and helmets have the majority of effects.

It is 10:22 and I am just being straight forward but apart from that it will make quite an amazing look when mixed with the Zodiac and radiant sets that is why I would like the flames to follow the same outline like 99% of the other armor in the game including the other 2/3 flame trio

Would be nice to see some particle effect justice for all medium and heavy sets when compared to the godly light set quality.

I will move this thread to the suggestions area (sorry about this one)and I hope this one will get closed.

I just caught wind of the permanent selfless potion that grants a halo as well as the thoughless for horn and I am currently on a crash course to get 250 found heirlooms but I am worried that I do not have enough time.

Is there a way to farm Found Heirlooms besides rubble piles and how many rubble piles are there?

How many days are left for the event?

Yup, the way you are posting looks like you are having the idea on the fly and is too lazy to press the edit button, way a few minutes and make 1 good post is better than spam ideas at “random”.

I certainly do not want my post to remain at the top due to comments and I do wish it to fall to the back of the crowd. However, I do not want to retype something in the same text box and have the slightest chance that someone important might miss something new that would have been added.

I really don’t want to keep myself near the top but I can’t choose that.

I am just humbly trying to be productive while hoping not to insult anyone.

The most interesting idea to me would be the Anet devotion system, the glowing eyes, the living story themed armors & the 1 time use effect dyes. The rest was just ranting some ideas but to be honest I hope that a GM does have the time to read everything and would be polite enough to reply to me personally

I notice that you’ve largely been talking to yourself.

I think he is just making a post to each idea he has instead of make a couple post with many paragraphs.

I do not want to make many posts and get into trouble for it. I would think that making one post would be enough. I am not sure why I am doing it to be honest but I guess my personal life is pretty amazing and I am just trying to be productive in another way?

Even if only a cosmetic idea is taken it would be interesting to see, some specifically more than others. However, I am within the understanding that some of these might not be even remotely possible without major work and I do not want to upset Anet whom is the creator to this game. I have nothing but respect to these designers but apart from my break from the game and ignoring my college or soon to be career I was playing other games as a break and while there were different aspects….. I would truly like to play this game as many other people would agree that they too want to see this game flourish.

Expansion on real world aspects such as personalized housing, sports, increased politics, advancement of government and their actions affecting the player. The already active defense of local cities is a great touch that can change on its own.

Union with the dredge—-

We could use the current image of dredge tunnels as an idea that it is the outskirts of the dwarven & dredge land. You can install an underground city with the image of an epic and grand system and use it for a political part to the story even if it is only minor. This could be filled with various story’s that can originate from here. One is the idea of the expansion to these tunnels and above ground use of the resources removed to build the cities higher to increase eye gaping civilization for the NPC’s. You can use the idea of an underground railroad being built to connect the major cities as a source of fast (((but not too fast))) travel. The increase in resources both increase the dredge cities as well as underground cities to the major cities with an UNKNOWN feeling of boundaries to them to allow personal homes for players. Since the limit would feel UNKNOWN it would allow for a permanent player residence without the worry of limited housing and worrying whether the player is active or not.

OFFICIAL SPORTS remade-

the trial and error of new sport like games as well as old to determine popularity and the creation of a building where people can join in these games as a predetermined team or a random people. Similar to the idea of griff ball to halo but with various different game types. """"A Coliseum""""

Can be represented with a very small color line or ribbon above the characters name.
Something as a way to leave the happy people that sit in the game looking at a river something to smile about.

A single famous place of meeting maybe not in a known city but as a giant floating convention of ships perhaps. Running across those rope bridges to get to the next Coliseum. Maybe a connection of 4 or 8 different ships that are not confusing to cross at all but are quite jaw dropping.

The making of new well known trains that offer the exact same profit, way pointing, foot traveling, difficult & boss skills would be a key point in combining and expanding servers on a smaller yet important scale as it spreads out this farming method on a larger scale and would result in less overflow while allowing many servers to combine to increase the general public of a now dynamic single server.

doing that in such a way that it does not under populate an area but over populates nearly all areas where the overflow would go to other major servers. This however would take a long term trial and error system and with increase in new players would come re-evaluations. WHILE BEING DIFFICULT AND QUITE BUSY if done with extreme care it can result in the feeling of a full and highly exciting population.

END GAME!! We have legendary weapons & Ascended crafting but I think that we should create time portal to replay the whole ACTION of the scarlet story over as a raid. A raid in chapters where you can skip chapters after a completion and choose specific ones. These chapters should offer large scale rewards and the rewards should tie but not limit the game as a whole.

It should have rewards similar to fractals to offer an alternative as to better develop a broader endgame. The entire Super Adventure Box series should also gain such treatment.

I understand that there is a chance that Anet is worried about spreading out the community to thin but these endgame features should implement a collection of servers participating in these “RAIDS” as to populate this part of the game. However, this might affect the pve aspect of non-raid areas and this can be managed by a trial and error system to test to see which servers can be merged for pve and if there is an overflow then they should be placed on other merged servers as an overflow individual and put this on a larger scale. This should increase server interaction on a larger scale.

Maybe a new elite skill that lets you summon 1 ai used mob under Heavy melee, Medium melee/ranged, & light ranged this new elite skill would always use the same skills for any heavy, medium, or light class no matter what summon is used….. but the summon would be your ALTERNATE CHARACTER wearing his armor but using ai determined skills regardless of its class. The skill can be setup with a predetermined summon in a mini window

an AMAZING idea would be to have a single purchase effect DYE that can be used only once on ONE dye box for an item. This would create vastly individualistic armor.

Taking the universal effect of twilight, sunrise or something new yet similar and using it as a one time dye on a one time box would create a vastly dynamic community. Increasing total effect dyes to 10 different types would make things interesting. Cultural armor would be given new highlights and life. The effect would only be on the armor itself and not to exceed off of it.

OR it does not have to have a similar base effect as twilight and sunrise but could be stationary with eye poping effects like new stars appearing and exploding at high rates.

Numbers of Anet devotion actually purchased with gems would be nice at 800 each. Permanent numbers that appear on the commander tag if you have one (((+))) a permanent numbers next to your Map Completion Star. With a toggleable number that floats behind your back if you wish it. Ultimately depending on the individual. (((Can be seen by others)))——or orbs—-

I sometimes dream of the male Norn cultural armor that has the chest’s over under pattern with the one of the patterns containing a celestial flame like glow effect. The stag helmet that is in contact with the head to contain a full abyss flame effect as a whole similar to a solid object with a flaming appearance. The stag antlers to be celestial white flames similar to radiant but as a flame. sooo on and sooo forth. With the cape to the chest as an abyss effect with the end of the cape curling up in an abyssal flame.

I like having shiny armor skins such as the Zodiac chest/helm + Grenth hood + Radiant shoulder & gloves.

I use abyss and celestial and I am always looking for shiny skins to show my time or financial investment. I believe that if I use shiny skins from different releases then I will show just how much $$$$$ was spent on the skins in comparison to everyone else who wears cultural. I even skinned over my cultural when it came to this.
