Be more mature you two.
Just reporting a bug.
Honestly, im just tired of doing some hotjoins for fun, and running into 2-4 rangers on the same team all using LB #2 on me. One ability shouldn’t have such range, such dmg, and such a short cd.
I was all for buffing ranger… but not enabling everyone to hit LB #2 to win.
This is obviously a bug, as a thief cant use steal, necros cant use DS.. etc when downed.
If you cant see it on the screen while downed, you shouldnt be able to use it.
Alas, I did not notice the Suggestion forum has been shelved. You can try this one: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2
The post would be moved to dungeon sub forum, because it pertains to dungeons.
I agree with OP, a rewards revamp needs to be put in place.
Let me take the pleasure to answer your post.
The way I think your opinion that “The ways dungeon selling hurts the community” is wrong.
1.
Opens up the possibility for griefing and a headache for your customer service department.
The customer service department doesn’t work for free. They get paid to deal with these kinds of situations professionally. Your argument is overextending.
It’s apparent have never worked in a customer service job before.
2.
Ability to avoid learning your class/the dungeon/game mechanics (example: new players) and the ability to just buy your way in.
Same could be said to the (dungeon) PvP reward tracks. You don’t need to play dungeons to get the skins and tokens. Blasphemy!
Apples, and Oranges. That’s another way to achieve those things built into the game. The only thing that would make that similar to my argument is if people were selling wins/playing your character for you, to complete the reward tracks.
3.
Less gameplay time = less people playing = less people buying gems, or possibly buying gems.
Most of busy people, like me, have very little time to play, yet can drop seriously big chunk of cash into the gem store monthly to catch up with others. We buy gems, convert it to gold, buy dungeons to get tokens, get the skins and complete our collections. Sellers profit, buyers happy. There is no scenario such as yours.
It was an example, but I like how you seem to think you are above everyone else… I have spent quite a lot of money in gems, and I didn’t have to ‘cheat’ to get dungeon master or all of the skins I wanted, even when being away from home for 14 hours a day for my job. Alas, you seemed to miss the point for a third time. Let’s go for more:
4.
There are times where the only thing posted in LFG tool are dungeon selling/buying runs. Which hurts the community, as it defiles what the LFG tool is for.
This comes up a lot. For goodness shake, LFG aka. Looking For Group does not mean Your Only Chance to Group. The properly intended use of this tool would be: create your own group or join within the group’s criteria.
As someone who usually posts their own groups if they want to pug, its not so much a problem for me, but what about new players? What about people who WANT to play the game.. the less people playing the game = less people doing dungeons. I don’t quite see why you don’t understand this? Seems you just want to defend you buying dungeons so you can continue to do so, instead of playing the game as it was intended.
Now it is certain that I don’t agree with any of your argument. Good luck with your suggestion elsewhere.
Elsewhere? Where am I supposed to post suggestions? Do I go to my kitchen and shout out to the world what my ideas are? Not a bad idea at this rate.
Buying groceries is assisted cheating because you are skipping the laborious farming of your own produce.
If you were playing a game as a farmer, and you bought groceries and passed them off as something you grew.. then sure.. that’d be cheating.
Dungeon selling – soloing – elitest / zerk etc. . Etc. .
No need to hide Op, we are all the same arent we?
You want us all filtered out just as much as others doDon’t worry though, its slowly happening..
Not sure what you’re trying to say, honestly..?
I run zerk all the time, but I disagree with allowing selling or buying dungeon paths. I also dont care if someone is elitist or not, when I’m in a dungeon I fill my role… If you do that, you will never have someone yelling at you.
Top right corner of the first post is so beautiful.
It’s because I addressed “anet” in the title. “Anet: make Dungeon selling buying against TOS”, was the original title. I’m not sure why they put that detail there, because to the forum it looks like anet is publicly “shaming” me.
(edited by Kahrgan.7401)
Selling dungeon runs, at its core, is assisted-cheating. Buying a dungeon run is by-passing gameplay and still reaping the rewards from a dungeon (tokens, achievements, etc)
Now, I know what you’re thinking, “there’s nothing wrong with that”. I would have to disagree with you. One can compare buying a dungeon run with botting. Something else is doing the work FOR you. YOU aren’t actually playing the game the way it was meant to be played.
The ways dungeon selling hurts the community:
1) Opens up the possibility for griefing and a headache for your customer service department.
2) Ability to avoid learning your class/the dungeon/game mechanics (example: new players) and the ability to just buy your way in.
3) Lessens gameplay time, over time. Less gameplay time = less people playing = less people buying gems, or possibly buying gems. Less people playing hurts the game in many other ways, not just gem sales, but I don’t have to tell you or anet that.
4) There are times where the only thing posted in LFG tool are dungeon selling/buying runs. Which hurts the community, as it defiles what the LFG tool is for. Looking for groups for gameplay. It’s not a tool to make money or an easy-out. It’s a tool to play the game.
We could argue that it’s the same as buying a legendary, but that’s an argument for another time and place.
The main benefit of making buying/selling against the rules for Anet, is that you won’t have to deal with all the reports and drama from people being griefed/scammed, or any other situation that deals with these situations.
I’m happy to say that this is the most fun I’ve had gaming in a long time. I do notice that when reading posts of “doom and gloom”, it is a little disheartening for a new player like myself. However, I do believe constructive feedback is an important aspect of contribution from the player base. To me, complaining is some times also comes from people who are passionate about the game and want to see it improve but may feel their suggestions go unheard/unnoticed. That would be frustrating. So far though, I’ve had nothing but great experiences in-game so far. Anyways, just my thoughts…..headed home to play……
Stick around for a while, make those “constructive posts” after 2 years of being ignored, it’s possible you will be as unhappy as the “complainers”.
- Accessibility.
- Playing to the strengths of existing GW2 core functionality.
The rewards should be less RNG oriented, and more token oriented with large goals and also smaller / lower cost items when you have completed the large goals.
This class is not worth it to play, in any game-mode. Roll another class.
I love my necro, but it’s barely playable. No meaningful group benefit, a ping-pong ball in spvp, and our top dmg, consists of DS/lich #1 spam.
It’s un-innovative, poorly designed, and still being nerfed (lol..)
There’s no need for me to post any suggestions either, because look at the necro forums, so many suggestions already that fall on deaf ears.
New player had some sort of issue! INCOMING NERF, NOW 2 BUTTON CLASS.
mine is up, i’m not going to use it though..
balthazar backpack and a piece of glorious armor, buff or no buff i’m never goign in gw2 spvp again z__z
It came up around 3:10pm EST
The weekend starts on Friday by most definitions.
The weekend consists of two days, Saturday and Sunday.
I really don’t want to have to educate you.
Regardless, what day is it, genius?
It’s saturday.
You claimed that the weekend starts on Friday.
In a lot of cultures, the weekend begins on Friday. The world doesn’t revolve around you and only your understanding of the world.
But, again, regardless… it’s still Saturday, which should have the buff active.
wasn’t that last weekend?

Title says it all, should of been active for “the weekend”
US’s weekend. Not yours.
“In celebration of the Invitational Qualifier, this weekend all players will benefit from +10% increased PvP rank point gain, +15% reward track progress, and an additional +100% magic find while in Heart of the Mists (and yes, this works on all reward track boxes)! Feeling festive? Make sure to work on your Halloween reward track, featuring festival rewards and a 20-slot bag as the final prize!”
“All players”
No region or time-frame given. The weekend starts on Friday by most definitions.
It’s a huge disadvantage to be a charr in a soloq, but I only play charrs, because manbeast-mode onlykkthnx
Title says it all, should of been active for “the weekend”
I really like this thread but like everything anet that does… the story was good but the rewards are utter crap, leaving most of us unsatisfied.
WOW.
But an ele or engine can stomp while being completely immune to EVERYTHING.
I.. I’m at a loss for words.
Thats the other thing I was wondering too, no fakes, no forgeries, or lies. The only way something like this would be “legit” is if this were a CRAFTABLE item. Very interesting…why not. Maybe you craft it, then throw it in the forge.
I think the post was referencing the event you do before the karma vendor gets unlocked, they drop cursed amulets or something, and the ghostly doubloon is on the merchant. Wild guess…
Bet you its the celestial exotic accessories and “orbs”. I hope I’m wrong, because that would be ultra-lame.
is this about how to get the pillowcase for the collections acheivment?
No, you get pillowcases from trick or treat bags.
Ghostly Doubloon (both Rare and Masterwork) does fit into the Mystic Forge, but I can’t find anything that goes with it.
so far only thing ive found that will combine with these are mystic forge stones…
It only goes with the green version of the doubloon, not the blue.

Stop faux-guessing and get in early on the REAL answer:
Infinite Continue Coin + Box o’ Fun + 250 Thin Leather + 250 Bloodstone Dust = Portable Super Adventure Box
Just checked, cannot put infinite continue coin in the toilet.
Hey there,
Here are a few tidbits from the team:
- A lot of newer players had trouble with the interface. That doesn’t apply to you, you’re veterans who have been around the conversion block a time or two. But newer players will benefit from the updated system.
- The goal was to make the Gem Store more like other shopping experiences, and if you think about it, there is more of that feel to it now.
- You may be surprised to know this (I know I was) but very few people bought gems at smaller denominations than the first one offered in the new system. That’s not to say they never did, nor that there wouldn’t be the desire to do so. But overall, the current options were selected based on player purchases in the past.
- The team is going to listen to your feedback and, if and when it’s practical and desirable, they can look towards adjusting the new system to better meet your needs.
So please keep your thoughts coming on the new system. Feel free to make suggestions but please, keeping them constructive would be very much appreciated.
BULL… This is a money grab at its core.
Protip: design content that people want to play for long periods of time (months) and you will have more players, more players = more gem purchases.
You don’t squeeze what players you do have.
Revert, please.
WTB those black wings as a seperate backpiece (since they werent included on the costume to begin with)
2. Implement measures that counteract low-end outlier behavior inside of game design. This would be a system that is something like: If player hasn’t received a rare drop in X time send them Y tickets for random drops.
For pete’s sake please impliment #2. 5k hours on this account alone, and i’ve seen 1 precursor drop from a high-end fractal. Thousands of gold in the mystic toilet, and not a single pre.
The differences are in the scaling of non-lich dmg. Before I could go into a team of 4-5 enemies in spvp, place down my two damaging wells while having locus swarm up, pop into lich form then spam 1, and wipe their whole team 100-downed-dead in a couple seconds.
Lich form 1 is really powerful atm, but 100% avoidable with terrain, dodging, projectile blocks/reflects, but there is no lich bombing anymore.
If people are getting wrecked by lich, its a l2p issue.
dat reso…
/15chars
No thank you.
I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure Healing doesn’t affect Parasitic Contagion.
It doesn’t affect it. Due to the nature of the trait, its a straight 5% of condi dmg. instead of heals X mechanic.
A race change.
/inb4 BUT THE PERSONAL STORY! (I dont care, reset the thing.)
Seeing as they never fixed the charr problems. I hope not.
Nerf Warrior’s hammer first, then let’s talk about Terror.
Hammer has animations, necro’s fears do not….
much passive fear such wow so skill
Did you just imply that hammer takes skill?
hhmmffkk… Hmmmffkk.. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
What’s even more hilarious is that warriors have so many passives I can actually watch youtube while in a pvp match with my warrior.
(edited by Kahrgan.7401)
Ham warrior, needs nerf in the cc department.
1) Siphons boosted by 50% and the trait that boosts siphons removed.
2) Dagger #2 turned into AOE siphon
3) DS has foot in the grave by default
This is a really old build… re-posting for kitten kitten “forum fame” is a kitten move.
Can confirm, still bugged to kitten. And we arent getting any fixes anytime soon.
If anything, it’s gotten worse. my golem today in an spvp match stood still (not immobilized) for an entire duel with a warrior.
Thanks anet. thanks. This is one of the reasons I dont give you money anymore.
Its a bit obvious that this was a bug. It has nothing to do with nerfing us, it was a bug fix.
I dont disagree with you… but do you ever remove your lips from anet’s hind-quarters?
I don’t know why you think those problems are specific to Charr. They’re not. Most helms make chars bald. My Asura’s toes and ears poke through shoes and helms. Her wings and weapons now float a far distance from her back when wearing the new costume (that I paid good money for). The wings are lopsided on top of that, they tilt to the right.
It’s not just Charr. It’s all char.
Didnt say it was only charr.
Title: Can us charrs get some art dept love?
Subject: There are not many options that look good on charrs, since this game is all about cosmetics, can we get some decent cosmetics?
Here’s an example (top image is original armor fitting, bottom is my version): (picture shown is of a Charr).Says nothing about other races and I left my mind reading cap off when reading your post so I didn’t know that Charr meant Charr, Asura, human, Sylvari and Norn.
My bad.
So by not mentioning that other races have issues to (races I dont play) you assume I’m saying that no one else has issues.. Seems you are reading more into it than anyone else. Seems you are the problem.. not anyone else.
Good day.

So I havent played for more than an hour at a time for months.
I hotjoin a game, kill some people, stealth troll some people and then it happens. The rage-gate lets loose a necro’s fury.
The necro who was “tired of cookie cutter thieves” was running a build I ran on my necro one year ago.
Honestly, its 12:53am and this post probably didnt make much sense, but im still scratching my head and shrugging about what happened. I thought it was funny and I thought I’d share.
Moral of the story: Stop whining when you die.
(edited by Kahrgan.7401)
PVEing as a necro is useless, just roll a guardian, warrior, thief, or mesmer.
Necro brings nothing to the table, and potentially a whole lot less damage.
