I’m honestly really pissed off right now, because there’s a one-time event going on and i can’t be there.
Now I’ll never be able to do it, and I’m REALLY mad about it.
Its a pretty crap event. 2hrs of lag and spamming auto attack for 17k xp, 300 karma and 1 silver so far
All anyone cares about in this game is how well they can skip mobs and run through areas. It’ll be the same argument as all those about Orr. “Ahhh, they pull me back and stop me running”.
Except in Orr I can kill 5-6 at once, here if I get 2 on me it’s most likely gg.
I don’t mind that they are dropped but why account bound? The chance of getting the skin is slim already, now if I get one I don’t want, what am I supposed to do with it?
Turn it into ectos or throw it in the forge is all you can do.
This is strange… at the end of the Dredge fractal for me, the Legendary Elemental defeated the Legendary Power Suit, and we had to fight the elemental instead, dropping lava on him etc.
oh come on, I dunno exactly which one you mean, but the one in asura-like environment with harpies is the easiest one in the game…I wouldn’t even call it a jumping puzzle…you can do the jumps even in combat
You guys don’t understand… I seriously have a problem with jump puzzles… I think I have a serious problem with depth perception.
I am blind in one eye and can complete all of them just fine
In the end it doesn’t matter what the community wants, players will come and go all the time. In the end this is a business and n business all that matters is the bottom line.
I want cool looking gear. That is all I played for while raiding In wow for years and every other mmo I have played. If they want to ad higher stats to it what ever I don’t care as long as I can continue to get everything in the game with a 5 man group.
I honestly don’t care. I spent years raiding in wow, not because it was super fun or because I wanted to have better stats to tank better or do more ops, I did it because I wanted cool looking armor. So long as they keep designing good looking armor I will do what I have to to acquire it.
Remember that one that started collapsing because of that easily farmed event in the Mad Kings Zone? The even that resulted in an emergency fix where they nerfed the chest to the point it was no longer worth doing the event?
Wonder how everybody is going to feel when they can’t sell their exotics because of all the new ascended armour coming in over the next few content updates. To forget peoples reaction to it that easily you would think it hadn’t happened only last month.
There are 2 pieces coming out a ring and a back , and they are only useful in the new dungeon that will probably give exos for the higher rewards so its really no big deal.
They will have higher stats then Exotics, eventually you will be able to wear full Ascended.
This will kill the exotic market and probably take the high tier crafting material with it.
They have higher stats because you can not add runes or gems to them , without this they would be worse than exotics.
No, please read the blog post like I asked you too. It specifically states that Ascended has higher stats.
If you look at the picture and add the numbers of the exotic together with the gem slotted into it it still has lower stats then the Ascended one shown.
Infusion might make that stat difference even more but even if it doesn’t then Ascended is still better and nobody will want exotics anymore.
The bonus I get for the runes I use is not worth losing to get a small increase in stats.
All those runes you can slot into your accessories and backpack? I’m sorry have you used some kind of exploit there?
Also the exotic market isn’t tied to you, its tied to supply and demand. The demand for exotics is going to drop right off once people can get these higher stats. Most people already use ruby orbs and similar if they are going full glass cannon, these ascended items have them built in from the get go.
You do know that there will be full sets of armor eventually

I actually salvaged 2 full sets of exotic armor on my norn guardian yesterday and used the ectos to make clovers for my human guardian. Its ok though I still have a full exo magic find set on the norn for farming.
Personally, I’m just not playing GW2. I actually roll a new character in GW1, Presearing. To my surprise I actually have been having far more fun, despite already having over 3,300 hours logged in GW1.
Good for you. Why are you still here then…? Not trying to be offensive (much..).
To let ANet know they’re making a series of dire mistakes, in the hopes they will tomorrow have a meeting, try to recover from their hangovers and tell one another, “Oh man… we messed up guys. We messed up bad.” And then fondly remember GW1, and drastically remodel GW2 to be less terrible.
How dare they add infused armor like they had in gw1.
That would be too big of an advantage given to the holder of a legendary weapon. You can bet if they implemented something like that even more people would start complaining that legendary weapons are too hard to get.
The weapons are not hard to get they just require time spent.
Legendary weapons are cool, but I think it would be even better if each one had a skill that unlocked with it and could be chosen to us in the elite skill slot. They would be no more powerful than the different racial elites just something for extra flare. Here are a few of my ideas, I plan on adding more when I have time.
I would also like to hear what others think about this idea and what skills they would like to see.
Sunrise – Slice the air in front of you sending out a wave of fire that burns all enemies it touches. 1 stack of burning. 1200 range
Twilight – Slice the ground in front of you calling forth a miasma that poisons enemies it touches. 1 stack of poison. 1200 range.
Bolt – Thrust forward sending out a bolt of lightning that bounces between enemies causing confusion. 1 stack of confusion, 600 range.
First off all I agree that the DR timer is a tad silly for short dungeons, but I really doubt that Anet will change it any time soon.
That being said in most cases it wont effect you. Most groups only run 1 dungeon (3 paths) and then do something else. And even if you do run multiple dungeons, it ll only trigger if you choose to do 2 short dungeons in a row (AC/CoF/TA).
The simple solution for me is to alternate a short dungeon with a longer one or stop and do something else in between.
So you are telling us that we are playing the game wrong by going for the things we want even though we do it all legit?
Then do you do things that aren’t farming? Do you not do jumping puzzles? Do you not SPVP? Do you not level up alts?
I only farm for legendaries, don’t do jumping puzzles anymore because it gives nothing, I don’t do SPVP, and I hate alts.
I have 542 hrs on my character and the only thing I am doing is going for some legendaries, I had hoped that this Halloween event would add some fun things but it its just another grind from a company that said there would be no grind.
The point of going to a zone is that it’s supposed to be fun, not just profitable. That’s why everyone hates Orr – it’s the most profitable place so people who farm feel like they have to go there to do it, but no one likes killing all the Risen or running around it on their own.
