Guild Wars 2

thefounder.2074:

On the 8th day of Christmas, GW2 gave to meeeeee…… more reasons to hope Elder Scrolls Online and Everquest Next are great gamessssss!!

hmmm think ill go play some skyrim.. cya!

Skyrim is a great game? LOL

Specifically for upgrades, because burdening the cost of it on one player then losing that fortress is a bit cruel. What I suggest is a bank like system with no withdraw option, people can pick which upgrade to donate to and deposit however amount of currency they want, then when it reaches its price the upgrade starts.

No because there are sigils that activate on weapon swap that give extra buffs, giving no CD on weapon swamp will just end up with everyone getting full stacks by switching weapons in and out all the time.

Not added because of clipping issues, which I find is a pretty stupid reason since armor clips with almost every weapon when they’re sheathed.

You had me excited by the title >.>

Congrats Anet, well deserved.

Kaizer.7135:

Daggers with Sup Sig of Fire & Sup Sig of Bloodlust.

You realise that Sigils share CDs?

Bloodlust doesn’t have CD? It’s a sigil stacking power.

^This^

Only active sigils share cooldowns, say Sup Sig of Fire & Life Steal Sigil, none can activate at the same time and share the same CD after one activates.

Ummm, No. Getting paid for doing nothing? No, just no.

Rob.7624:

Post your cool SS’s of in game stuff!
If its a buggy mob or a funny emote, a scenic view or complete total WvW lolfail Post it!

Heres mine to start this off.
Commander Bird Song in the Eternal Battleground Commanding from the Rooster overlooking Stone Mist Castle.

Does this count? lol

penatbater.4710:

Why get abyss when you can get midnight fire/ice for much cheaper? (and black dye for that matter).

Because black looks grey and midnight ice is just a dark blue

I have Abyss, Black and Midnight ice on my warrior and Abyss is not only the darkest, it’s the shiniest too.

Well I use full Berserkers with Sup rune of scholar 6/6, Daggers with Sup Sig of Fire & Sup Sig of Bloodlust.

Power over precision imo, you’ll have plenty of both though. Superior trait 100% in stealth pretty much won’t need extra precision.

Sorry if I’m not clear or something, it’s pretty late and I should go bed lol

I’d rather get dual Corrupted Shards, they look very sexy. But that’s only because I’d never be able to afford a Legendary any time soon, and if I were to get the Incinerator, well…..I’d want 2 of them lol.

I can’t even afford 1 Corrupted Shard atm so xD

Loading.4503:

Omg, it’s begun, it was backstab, now unicorn, next " omg did you see that thief run around in circles, everyone was confused and just watched him so he took no damage!!"

BS is still OP.

It’s fun how you Thieves just believe everybody is stupid and you are good players lol

Ok person who mains a warrior…..Okay.

Was it this icon? http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/File:Invulnerability.jpg

Image on the right

I got a chest, unsure why since I didn’t even have free time to attend the final event (school). I did participate in the opening events though.

Thank You ANet
& good luck to those who haven’t received their chest yet.

I main thief, I usually hang back and pick off targets one by one when I run solo. It’s real fun, especially when you target a commander

Kurow.6973:

This sub-forum is nothing but a bad player’s haven, where they can cluster up to complain about, just about anything (really doesn’t have to make sense logically).

Well, you are here. So I guess your statement that this is a “bad player’s haven” is a tiny bit correct.

They’re not up for me…..

I still can’t get in?…And I was only JUST able to log on to forums now..

I’m curious why? For instance I was selling something for 8gold, I got taxed off 1gold and had to pay 30ish silver to put it on TP. The 30silver I can understand, but the 1GOLD?! why?

EDIT: Btw I know it’s percentage, so the higher the value the higher the amount of money gets taxed off

Deathful Dante.1239:

Saying “take off your armor” and “buy appropriate armor from TP” doesn’t help. The matter we are defending here is that there is no reason for one to go back to low-level areas, other than to complete explorer.

People not wanting it to be changed must agree that this IS an issue. That ANet DID intend low-level areas to be interesting to go back to. So this IS something that ANET probably wants to “fix”. So that it works as it was intended to in the first place.

As to how to fix we can only suggest ideas. The choice is theirs in the end anyway but I do think they have lots of much more important issues to solve right now.

Well bumping up the difficulty won’t interest people, they need to add more content there that is difficult but gives GOOD loot that you can only attain from that zone.

Lensar.4920:

As anyone who spends time in WvW knows, battles tend to be very mobile affairs. In medium to large battles, Kill Shot tends to be ineffective. A warrior must run up to within 1500 meters of the enemy.

1500 METERS ???!!!!!

Quick Mouse.7635:

I do. I usually get a couple rares and maybe a lodestone or exotic from jormag event. Here’s a dragon timer for you.

http://guildwarstemple.com/dragontimer/

Oh wow, tyvm

Agreed

I think they log out to dodge repair costs though, but ANet should just disable log out in combat or something.

I can already see Thief’s hiding behind walls spamming attack number 2….

Meh, I didn’t really enjoy it in GW1, halloween was my fave festival in GW1 & the Dragon Festival.

Only thing I’m really looking forward to is balance changes and such that may be included with Wintersday.

I haven’t even attempted figuring out when they spawn anymore, I just don’t see the point which is a shame since they look REALLY good.

Mostly it has to do with very very very very very CRAP loot.

Omg LOL

That’s just too funny! XD

Yep happens to me, barely ever on land though just underwater. I literally swim right up to their faces and start killing them, not moving an INCH and they go invulnerable at 5% HP and swim off.

Mechanix.5719:

“there should be a demand for gems but this is really becoming too expensive to buy with gold” Just what Anet wants how do you think F2P games work?

It’s B2P, why don’t you guys get that?

Anyway, the price skyrocketed after makeover packs came out I think, I mean, it was suggested by a LOT of people in the suggestions forums.

Lol, so the thief that perma-stealthed didn’t actually kill you? He just taunted you into a group of his allies and they got you killed? Sounds like you fell right for his trap…

Blackgate, Sanctum of Rall, Sea of Sorrows, Isle Of Janthir all have a few oceanics.

If we had Oceanic servers we’d probably only have enough people for 1 server, and then there would have to be 2 other Oceanic Servers for WvW. We don’t have enough people for that..

Mine still remained clipped, not really a big deal though as I always draw them out and run. Male Sylvari’s have a much better running animation with their weapons drawn. Also, it’d be pretty difficult to get no clipping of daggers and pistols with Order Of Whispers chest piece

I love my Sylvari and knew I was going to main one when I saw them at first glance.

But I won’t lie, I hated the male voices…

Lalangamena.3694:

don’t go thief, they are all the glass without the cannon.

LOLWUT?

Ighten Hill.5038:

Sylvari.. Just hate the artwork in the region.. Its like a 2 yr olds version of a fantasy jungle.

Sylvari.. Just hate the artwork in the region.. Its like a 2 yr olds version of a fantasy jungle.Liked the Human one best.. Arts a bit safe but it has a nice pastoral feel to it.

…..Ouch, that cut me deep

Oh my god, did you take up ANet on those Artist job opening things?

THESE LOOK GREAT!

Beautiful, just……..beautiful

lol

Haha that’s awesome

Also, which one did you enjoy the most?

My least favourite would have to be the Norn area, did it once & never again lol

My favourite would have to be Sylvari starting area

Wow, I knew it was bugged, I knew it….

Actually I didn’t, I just suspected it was and found the confirmation here, thx ASP.

Phoenixfudge.5290:

Its fine really. You just need to play differently. One good example of a counter to these noob backstab thieves is p/d condition thief. I run that build, it kill almost everyone slowly but surely. The best part of it is that you have massive survivability with this build also.

I’d be willing to bet that we would see more QQ on thieves if this was a more popular playstyle. Good thing most people like to kill fast and be killed fast.

That build is INCREDIBLY easy to run lmao

Phoenixfudge.5290:

Well, I’m well aware of the invisible second wall that resets you. You can actually get past that wall by shadow stepping. Once you get past that wall you can walk right into there spawn (assuming you dodge the other sets of legendary defenders) and start trolling the enemy.

Although you cannot attack the enemy player (due to invincible buff) you can run around the spawn leading them on a wild goose chase. Best of all, you can kill the enemy NPC’s such as their Repair Man, Armor and Weapons dealer. It’s really funny. You can also use Scorpion Wire on the NPC while a player is talking to the NPC vendor and it will interrupt the conversation.

I did this a couple times to IOJ and I started wondering if Anet didn’t intend for enemy players to get past the invisible wall so I stopped in fear of being banned for exploitation. I wonder though, why bother having the legendary defenders in the spawn if Anet isn’t expecting enemy players to be in it? For the record, I’ve died numerous times from those guys compared to actual player mobs who chase me.

LOL so it was you that was doing it, I saw a random guy saying a thief was in our spawn hahahaha

Katsumoto.9452:

Thief
OMG 20k damage using all utilities, so once every 45 seconds, with steal-cnd-backstab from melee range and has to hit in the back to pull off that damage. Forum rages calls for nerfs.

Warrior
20k damage, not melee but 1500 range no less, once every 45 seconds i’d guess to charge up the adrenaline, no specific angle required. Forum mentions it but who cares right. Warriors should only get buffs.

kitten?

I didn’t ever mind backstab, still don’t. I don’t particularly mind this either. However get some consistency, if backstab rotations are broken this is too, perhaps even more so.

Yea I noticed that right away. if it was a thief backstab everyone would be going “Yeah they still haven’t nerfed dat kitten”, but it’s a whole different story when it’s about a profession that’s recieved nothing but buffs lmao.

Sounds fun, can’t wait to see the entries

I loved these vids from GW1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NsX52Uh7Ts

haha :P

NO WAY

If this happens we’ll be seeing gear sold in the item shop, this game will become pay to win.

RedX.3160:

instead of a greatsword… why not a lighter katana we hold with 2 hands? it wouldn’t hinder thief mobility and it would have it’s own offhand skills like the shortbow. plus it would look pretty awesome on our backs.

RYU HAYABUSA!!!

Make one of the skills an izuna drop animation :P

Anets fault, not ours. Also, how exactly do Thieves get infinite stealth? I won’t be trying it myself of course because I like killing MUCH more than holding people up.

I thought the infusions in this game would’ve been similar to how it was handled in GW1, made you immune to the Mursaat status thingy but didn’t add any extra stats.

Why does right clicking something ONCE trigger the interact command? And how do I disable it? I’ve also noticed it happening when I press 1 on my keyboard. So many times this has happened to me when I’m killing a downed person and my character starts up the FINISH HIM animation when I DON’T want him to. Especially being a glass cannon thief, a downed player can drop us easy.
