Everyone stop complaining about ascended

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

You don’t even need to grind to get ascended gear.

You will get the materials to make it by playing the game at any speed, in any way.

You and all of the other complainers are over dramatizing the entire issue.

Look at what is required to make them, and look at all the options of obtaining them. You get all of the materials without trying. Now relax.

Your name suits you perfectly, because not having to grind to get Asc weapons is total BS.

why the hell didnt they just let us choose both the weapon and the stats !

Because that actually makes sense and requires some thinking, something ANet is incapable of doing nowadays.

You don’t think conditions are in anyway unbalanced and need to be changed? lawl.

My warrior gets dropped faster by a condi nec/mes than a GC thief most times, and the nec and mes are more tanky than me.

Mesmer can’t be more tanky than warrior. Don’t tell me that you are some weird open beta weekend berserker warrior?

I main a thief and bought this game about 2 months after launch, stop assuming. I don’t take toughness anymore, since Conditions have made it obsolete, I take Vitality over it now. So yes, I’ve met mesmers tankier than me but still dish out insane amounts of damage. Not to mention most of their clones/phantasms can absorb most of my damaging hits.

Insane lag 24/7

I live in NZ, so it’s no surprise I’m lagging, but this is getting way out of hand. My screen will freeze for literally 3 seconds at a time, I have constant 2-3sec skill delay and I rubberband like crazy. When I go into sPvP I have to use a program called “Battleping” to help reduce the lag, but it doesn’t make that much of an effect. PvE can get pretty hectic too. Early when I played this game (near launch) I barely noticed any kind of lag even in the middle of zerg vs zergs. So, am I the only one experiencing this?

Here’s my specs if yall think it has anything to do with that (I’m a newb at technical stuff): 16gb Ram, Intel® Core™ i7-3770 CPU @ 3.4GHz (8CPUs), NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670

no more laurels for monthly ?!

Kaizer.7135

true .. this is my second time … so we need to check with someone who finish this month for the first time but i doubt it that it will be different.

maybe is like when u finish pve and pvp monthly, u just get laurels for the first one

This could be the case. It wouldn’t surprice me if the is code that records one u get the laurels and prevents rewarding any more unroll next month.

It’s been working like that for a while, you can’t get laurels from both (PvE and sPvP) of the Monthly Achievements only one.

You dont need to ask for it, there is a thing called consiquence.
Its really simple really. Ascended gear was introduced because Arenanet felt there were enough people asking for vertical progression to warrant it. Unless all those people quit the need didnt vanish. Ergo once those people full gear all their characters there will be this same problem again. Ergo when you’re asking for a small time frame to get a full ascended gear set you’re essentially asking for a new gear tier because arenanet will be forced to do it in order to provide goals for people who dont care for cosmetics. Thats in my opinion much much worst then taking ages to finish a single tier set. Why? because of power creep. A single tier is no big deal, but if we get 2 or 3 arenanet will be forced to do harder content which means new tiers will no longer be completely optional.

Its been less then 24hrs and you already decided that drop rates are way too low ?
You think thats objective?

Really, they didnt learn? hmm funny cause provided drop rate inst impossible I would have swore you could get ascended weapons not just by crafting but also killing champions, doing jumping puzzles, doing world bosses, doing WvW and more.

They’re already doing that? in 2 weeks time we get the revamped tequalt and from the video it seems very challenging.

Zerg != auto win they did last update that didnt stop people from zerging though, it just had people shouting in map to break the zerg so we could win the event. Zerging isnt something anet can do something about, its a player problem who value greed over anything else.

I’ve been playing this game for almost a year and have only gotten 2 Exotic drops ever, Ascended is higher tier so if logic dictates then it would have a smaller drop rate than Exo’s (if I’m wrong, feel free to correct me). 1 re-vamped mega boss is all we get after a YEAR? It’s not new content, it’s a fix. Also, I didn’t say there was anything wrong with zergs. I meant that it was wrong for Anet to release new events that required ONLY zerging to win. There was no strategy, no difficulty, all you needed was a lot of players and you win because in GW2 when you fail an event, you still win. It’s funny, because I remember when Ascended was first announced, the forum was full of raging topics, I find it hard to believe that most people wanted more gear tiers. They wanted new challenging content for endgame.

Nobody asked for a new tier of gear and we CERTAINLY didn’t ask for such ridiculous requirements to create them.

Actually, this is wrong. Some people did, a lot of people did actually so your argument is null and void.

Those people must’ve thought they were buying a different game then, or did they not know anything about GW1 or the GW2 Manifesto pre-release?

Is this at all possible?

Seriously people there is absolutely nothing that will ever make you happy. Each time arenanet tries to make it as easy on you and give you what you ask for as much as possible you still find stuff to complain about. I bet you would find something to complain about even if they just mailed each character a full set of ascended armor that you can choose stats for.

So lets see… first it was stuff requires too many mats its a grind.. fair enough, so arenanet introduced time gating.

Then it was 2 thinks first we had time gating slows me down and doesnt allow me to get all done in 1 day etc.. and also I dont feel like I earn my ascended stuff completing an easy daily, there is nothing epic about getting a piece of ascended gear

So now Arenanet allows you to sell / buy the time gated stuff and some materials you need come from champion, world bosses, jping puzzles and really any content you can think off

now its omg p2w, you can use gold to get it quickly … fail… and ohh 500 of something that drops in batches of 15-20 … killing 20 world bosses? too grindy!

Seriously nothing is good for you people.

I mean just read the posts here. You want it easy to get and quick but at the same time you dont want a new tier. Cant you see those two things are conflicting with each other? They didnt put in ascended gear just for the fun of it, they put in ascended gear to give the vertical progressionares a goal to work towards. The longer it takes to get a single piece the better because the longer there will be a need for new tier.

Nobody asked for a new tier of gear and we CERTAINLY didn’t ask for such ridiculous requirements to create them. Not to mention that the main way to attain them is via crafting, while the drops themselves will have such a miniscule drop rate I bet. You think Anet would’ve learned from when they first introduced Ascended that people hated the fact you could only get the rings from Fractals, but no, they didn’t.

They want to make us happy? New sPvP modes, Re-vamped dungeons, CHALLENGING content that doesn’t zerg=auto win, more weapon and armor skins (weapon skins have actually been pretty good though), non-fugly charr armor, Dueling, Pre-Cursor Scavenger hunt and MOAR SPVP MODES (yes I know I said it twice, but somehow they just don’t get the message).

Why ascended weapon is bad for wvw

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kaizer.7135

Kaizer.7135

Ascended weapons can drop from WvW keeps, camps, towers, jumping puzzles and champions. Probably about the same drop rate as an exotic.

But, to quote a dev, WvW is unfair. It’s certainly not balanced around 1vs1 so…

Also, if you’re not using full consumables, you’re already basically doing exotic vs ascended.

I’ve only gotten 2 exotic drops the entire time I’ve played this game, and that was because I was grinding a bugged event with full MF gear.

I wish I was joking.

Will people STOP THROWING AROUND THE WORD ‘PROMISE’. Please? They just said ‘we will have all the stat combos’. Its not a marriage agreement. Its not a binding contract. Its a conversation.

In this case its almost certainly a bug. One of about 420 introduced in this patch (a.k.a. about par for the course). Report it in the bug forums and give them a day or two to fix it.

How is this a bug? It hasn’t even been implemented into the game. If it were a bug I’d imagine Ascended items titled “Carrion” would be available in game but have the wrong stats.

Letting people know ectos were involved so that the no life players could immediately profit, check. Resetting monthlies so the locusts get double rewards, check.

This game rewards players with no job or life with massive TP manipulation.

Then we get the stellar gear grinds.

No thanks. Not the game I thought it was and anyone who doesn’t see this especially after the last couple patches is drinking koolaid.

This game has gone full on Asian grinder.

Yeah pretty much, I probably won’t get an Ascended Wep for a looooooooong time. Especially since I hate crafting, have crappy luck with drops, hate grinding and don’t have as much time on my hands as I used to.

Like what’s the % increase in your damage if you were running full zerker with completely ascended trinkets and then replaced your say……2h Exotic Zerker GS with an Ascended one?

What’s the % increase for that 1 weapon alone? I don’t know where people are getting the stats for Asc weps, so I can’t do the calculation myself. Not that I probably could, I’m TERRIBLE at math lol

EDIT: Btw, doesn’t need to be a exact figure, even an estimate would suffice.

No Grind -- The Quote

Kaizer.7135

Oh no, but it’s ok for them to give some players who grind for months better gear, because not having that gear doesn’t prevent you from doing anything beyond a few dungeons and fractals.

As opposed to WoW, where you need to farm for… well, actually considerably less time to get gear… but that gear is absolutely necessary! Well, only for a few high end dungeons and raids…

Oops.

This isn’t WoW, this game wasn’t inspired by WoW, No-one here gives a kitten about what happens in WoW, people completely avoided WoW and got GW2 for the reason you stated, so why are you comparing this to WoW? It’s completely kittened.

the problem with ascended weapons

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kaizer.7135

Kaizer.7135

I’m confused. Not taking ap chests into consideration you can get a potential 485 laurels a year.

That’s enough for 97 ascended weapons plans, assuming 5 laurels per plan which can be used more than once, or 16 ascended amulets. What are you doing with your laurels that that’s not enough? Are you saying you have 16 alts or that you need 4 different infinite cat tonics?

I don’t include rings, trinkets, and back items in the list because those are more easily gotten elsewhere.

Also all the crafting items are account bound. Some can be even sold on the market. The weapons themselves are account bound until equipped.

If you felt so inclined you could have several characters with weapon smithing to speed up the process.

The worst part is going to be gathering the materials that drop from world bosses and so on. That part is what is going to determine how long it takes to make your weapons.

The system really isn’t as bad as most people are thinking it’s going to be.

I concede the part about the looks and transmutation crystals though. Not everyone will care for the looks of the ascended weapons and I’m on the fence about that myself. I liked the look of the rifle and great sword we’ve seen so far, but what of the other weapons?

Not everyone gets to play this everyday and not everyone gets to play as long to get their dailies done. I know I’d never get the PvE daily done unless I solely focus on them, but what’s the fun in that? People don’t want to feel that they HAVE to log in every single day to make sure they get their daily so they don’t feel like they’re being left behind.

"The game you go to for PvP"

in PvP

Posted by: Kaizer.7135

Kaizer.7135

People still come to this game for PvP. They just play world vs. world.

Unfortunately, WvW is more influenced by PvE than PvP.

Without the automatic gear balance, WvW is just like every other gear treadmill game.

I don’t think you have ever played wvw.

No, I haven’t.

I’m basing my statement on 2 things.

A) Most “PvP” only splits are just that – WvW and PvE in one category, PvP in the other.
B) in WvW, your gear is non-standardized, like it is in PvP. I don’t want my access to gear to have any influence on whether or not I win.

Gear doesn’t have that great of an impact on your ability to win in WvW, unless you’re running White, Blue or Green gear. You probs wouldn’t notice it, I just noticed recently that my War was running some green Trinkets but I was still wrecking.

condition meta needs to be fixed

in WvW

Posted by: Kaizer.7135

Kaizer.7135

Just because you have great gear doesnt mean you will do well. However. Currently there is no counter to raw condition damage, there is no – Condition damage even though I believe there should. Conditions are very hard to counter as it is very set up and I have had to buy Holebrak runes and Melandru runes just to play a Power build which is not even on par with condition builds. Conditions need to be looked at, if it is mitigation of damage through toughness (to a certain percent cap) or changing how they are applied or granting immunity to certain conditions after they have been clensed for a short time. Something has to happen because nearly ever player I have encountered is running a condition face roll build. It is getting a bit stale.

I’m fully aware that the gear is only as good as the player wearing it; but i mentioned it because i know some idiot would mention something about glass builds and whatnot. But yeah i agree with everything else.

Sinjet don’t forget D/P Thieves, very overpowered spec in WvW if played properly.

Same with S/D

d/p and s/d are not overpowered at all. Thief is generally only overpowered to players who legitimately cannot counter them through skill; other than that thief is decently balanced and excels in what it is designed to do.

lol do you play a thief? p/d thieves are so op right now. stacking torment, and confusion… plus perma stealth.. .It’s very tough to counter…. it’s become the meta for thieves right now. It’s not an issue with skill when you get two stacks of torment ticking away 5k+ of hp, and if you want to halve that dmg you gotta stand still… imagine that – standing still while fighting a thief. lol it’s completely imbalanced unless you run a condition clearing class.

I still kill them easily on my GC warrior, Berserker Stance ftw

If they can’t remove it, they should make the “FINISH” animation 50% faster and not have the player go INVULNERABLE when they’re going into their Downed State, also reduce their Downed hp by 50%.
