Guild Wars 2

Ayrilana.1396:

We used to have #3 but it was taken away with the wallet.

Would be nice to have it back, helps me keep organized.

1. Character Select Screen.

As someone who has 20 characters, 13 of which are level 80 and the rest are works in progress, PvP only characters, Extra Bank Storage, and Story Characters. A feature that allows you to sort your characters would be a time saver and overall convenient. I would like to keep my mains at the front of the list, then my secondaries(which I usually use to farm mats) then PvP characters, then story characters, and finally storage characters. That way whenever I character hop, which I do often, I don’t have to worry about my main getting lost down the row and then having to click to scroll over and find them. Just something that would make Character Select overall better.

2. Dye and Armor

The ability to view your dyes from Bank or from the preview window. Currently we can only preview 4 dyes and they randomly colour your gear. Some dyes need to be viewed properly in order for us to get a good idea of what colours we want on specific gear. Some dyes have weird colouring on certain gear. For example the apprentice pants on females have a weird colour blend. The default red dye that you have when you start out makes it a blend of orange and red. So being able to choose our colours before we buy gear or unlock a skin would be amazing. Also makes it easier to find the dyes we want to preview.

3. Gold and the Bank

So our wallet is an amazing feature and was an overall amazing update that saves us a lot of time with multiple characters. The issue I’m having is very small and more a personal thing. I would like to see a deposit gold in bank option. Like the Guild Storage has. It would be nice to be able to deposit some gold into my bank so that I don’t run around and spend it. It’s just as easy to say don’t spend it, but putting the gold in the bank would make me have to take a trip to pull the gold out, if I really want to buy something I will make the trip. If it’s not worth it I will not make the trip. Just a small little something to help players save up gold better.

4. Soulbound Gear

What is with those certain pieces of gear that are soulbound but once you are done with it, you can’t salvage, you can’t sell it, and you can’t put it in the Mystic Forge? It really sucks when you put a Sigil of Force or some Runes of the Scholar in that kind of gear and then you can’t get it back, unless of course you buy and extractor from the gemstore(way overpriced, especially with the conversion rates atm) It’s never worth the gold to get an extractor and I have never used one ever. A pretty useless item overall imo. Would be nice if that random soulbound gear could be salvaged. Sick of losing money to a random feature that doesn’t need to be a feature. Other soulbound gear can be salvaged so what makes these special?

Even better…
A collection in the bank for sigils and runes. They are not crafting mats but we do get a lot of them, would love it if they deposited into the bank at the very very bottom out of the way. That way you can collect them and sell them in bulk in the future.

Also a sell from Bank option would be nice, to left click and list the item in your bank to the TP without having to take it out and such.

Lahmia.2193:

So long as they make the BL skins purchasable from the TP, I’d love the idea.

Of course! The privateer was a one time thing I hope.

Would love to see a Branded Glider in the form of Shatterer Wings or an upgrade to the branded back piece you get from the achievements for Shatterer. Maybe make this into a Collection for an ascended back piece or just a new crafting recipe that requires the Branded back piece and then a long list of crafting steps and a little adventure, similar to Mawdrey

As well as set of Branded Gathering Tools with purple lightning and glowy purple designs. These would finish my Guardian’s purple theme and also my Mesmer’s.

Lastly, Black Lion Weapon Skins. The purple already exists in terms of tormented, but these would have purple lightning effects and a shatterer metallic design.

Basically take the Shatterers Design and implement that into the 3 listed above. Would love to see these implemented into the game.

Also maybe a set of Gloves, Shoulders, Boots, and a Glowing Purple Mask(like the other 3 glowing masks) to match on the Gem store similar to the Lawless stuff.

Yes, that is a complete pain, which is why I stopped doing it that way.

Now, I just double-click the tools in the shared slots — while you still have to do this twice per toon (immediately after starting and just before swapping), it takes very little effort. Now that I’m used to doing it, it’s actually less effort than using salvage kits.

(This requires having a tool in the relevant slot — the post-load double-click loads the infinite tool; the pre-swap double-click transfers it back to the shared slot.)

Since every HoT owner has at least one slot, you can give this a try even if you don’t own enough slots.

Hey, I can’t make it work the way you described.
Double-click on the tool in the shared slot equips it, that works, but for un-equipping, I still have to open Hero window, go to Equipment and un-equip it.
How do you put it into a shared slot by double-clicking?

Thx

I think what people do is make sure they have a set of normal vendor tools equipped in their character’s harvesting slots. Then you put your permanent tools in the shared slots, double-clicking on the permanent tool will equip it and put the vendor tool in the shared slot. Then when you’re about to stop playing you can double-click the vendor tool (edit: in the shared slot) and it puts the permanent tool back in the shared slot.

Such a waste of slots though…

If they did this, they would have to compensate everyone who bought more than one set of tools. I have bought a lot of dups

If I purchase HoTs without logging in can I buy and then give the code to a friend to redeem. I want to buy my friend a gift, but I’m not sure if you can only buy it for your account or if I can gift it? Anyone know?

Thanks.

The search continues.

I can’t say we do fractals 24/7, but you’re welcome to join us. We are starting a Monday night fractals team/or 2 depending on recruitment. We do not require rep, so you can come run fractals with us, and do your own thing later.

I would like to join you, but I only have 1 guild slot left. I would really like an all fractal guild that just runs fractals 24/7. If I can’t find something I will check in with you again.

A Fractal Guild that only does Fractals.

Hello, I am Kyvrn/Kira. I am looking for a Fractal Based guild. I am new to Fractals and currently have 10 AR with level 14. I am currently not familiar with Fractals in a whole, but I would love to get into them a lot more. So I am looking for a guild that will accept players such as myself who are willing to learn and get better.

This is interesting. I’m thinking of doing something very similar, but I’m going to buy the game again, and with another account do everything from scratch and see if I can build a legendary from the ground up

A cape so we could be like Batman anyone?

I agree a character creation could have more options, but there is only one point in a topic wich i kind of disagree is that ‘’i am veteran and i should be bypass stuff’’. I have also play it games a long time and also get to a higher end content and never in my mind to request stuff like that way. I understand your point why you ask, but i would also say same that 95% of a game is worthless then and ask a skipping a head because its worthless to me like excample.
Yeah to a banks could have more faster access to improve it a certain way. Its pretty common how it works now anyway.

Thank you for your input. I see your point on the story. For me it just makes sense to be able to skip something if you so choose, there isn’t a whole lot that you get out of doing the main story after you have all the achieves and have done it enough times.

First i have upvote for you. I honestly was not expecting any anwser to my comment, and you did and also anwsered pretty well mannered because i did disagree with a certain points of your topic. Wich easily nowadays if wanna contructive talking its nearly impossible or a people offended if someone disagree with a point and they are right away ’’attacked’’ by forums polices or certain a groups.

Thats is true what you say wich would benefit in a later part of gaming even you salvage stuff and get some amount of money or finish a profession to get all recipies like to weaponsmithing or so. If missing something. Perhaps like you say option to bypass a certain way. They phrased in a differend level scale that you would skip ahead every new level range story line from a start to a end, but need to somewhat to finish it. Without a rewards ofcourse if you choose not to finish it ‘’correct way’’. Hopefully my english was good enough.

Your English is fine

Yeah I agree that is a subjective thing, not really necessary to do, it just might be something to put in in a few years. I can’t see myself maxing more than 5 characters out anyways, just something to throw out there that would make the game easier without breaking it.

That is true, but some people could cheat!

It would be nice to have like a hardcore mode, where you can’t use the BTC, and you can’t send mail or receive mail, and you have to gather everything yourself, and craft all your gear and what not. When you die your character is locked, and you either delete it or keep it to remind you of your failures.

Imagine getting a legendary though, then shortly after you die. That would be pretty funny, as well as horrible and terrible and I would cry for days.

Makeup & Accessories

As a player that really enjoys character customization, after a while the options we have get a bit boring. What I mean by that is in terms of face. though for the most part you are not looking at the face, it is important to me and I’m sure other players out there. I like the face options we have atm, those are all fine. What I would like though is makeup and accessories. Currently only a few faces have makeup on them. The issue is they are set. You can’t have another face with that makeup, you either pick that face or you don’t. I don’t want my characters to all have the same face, or same makeup. It would be cool to have accessories and makeup options for every face type, and just remove the makeup on the faces that do have makeup. Also adding more hair accessory color options. Rather than the limited few that there are. Possibly make it so whatever dyes we unlock can be used in the makeover kits to change the hair accessory color, or just give a general option for it.

Hair

This might be a long shot, but I will throw it out there anyways. Pinned-up hairstyles. Certain armor currently clips through certain hair styles. Hair that I really like will clip through armor that I really like. (ex. Leyline light armor torso; the collar on the female version clips through any hair that is long.) It would be nice to have certain hairstyles change depending on the armor you wear. It’s mainly about keeping the same style but modifying it to not clip with armor, then we can change the armor at no cost of a hairstyle kit. Also it allows us to have the hair we want with the armor we want. I like to theme my characters for the most part, but I can’t always have the hair I want with the armor I want.

Boots

Boot variety in the game is pretty bad atm. Idk what it is with the design on them, most of them are sized wrong. They are too big for the most part, and some don’t even match up with the size of your characters ankles, making it look like a child put on an adults shoes for fun. Some of the boots look pretty good, but a wide variety of them don’t. I don’t know why it is so hard to create proportional foot wear, but apparently it is. The outfits and armor skins have really great looks, and then there is the boots… ~facepalm~ So many armors look cool, but there are not enough boots that work with them or even look good to work with the armor. A redesign of the boots would be great. There are a few good ones, that don’t need to be touched though. The issue is that I see a lot of people wearing the same boots, with the same armor just different colors. I would like to see more variety in the foot wear department.

Color Schemes

This one is kinda random, but I would like more color edits for the interface, icons and animations for classes. I get that the classes have there own themes and all. But for me I like a specific class not because of its theme, and what it represents, but for the weapon skills and the way it plays. My guardian is a dark based character, with an evil look. I use twilight as my weapon of choice but there are still some effects that remain in the blue color. It would be cool to have effect changers, that change those colors to red, purple, or green, etc. As well as the icon colors, just a simple color change kit, that turns the color from blue to whatever you want to match the theme of your character. (ex. Mine would be red and purple. I would have purple icons, with red effects on my weapon animations and the fire from guardian abilities.) This might be a weird thing to add into the game, but I thing it would add more depth to the customization and themes people have for their characters.

Story

The story is great, after one or two play-throughs. I like that there are achievements for the races and different paths you can choose throughout the game. I can’t help but feel I have to complete the story on every character I make though, this becomes a mundane and tedious thing to do with every character. It get’s old fast, especially for those that have already finished all the achievements and have nothing to gain from completion of the story. It would be nice to have a feature that once you have unlocked all of the achievements if you could just skip through the story, and gain basic rewards upon reaching level 80. You wouldn’t get the rewards you unlock during it, so people that want the most out of their character can do so. But let’s be honest to a veteran player, those rewards are pretty useless anyways. It would make starting a new character feel way better.

Character viewer

I would love to see what gear another player has on. Or to just look at peoples creative outfits they have put together. This doesn’t have to be a stat viewer, just a simple wardrobe viewer. Sometimes I see a cool character, and want to look at their outfit, but some people make it hard, either by running and jumping around, or by running away from you completely and teleporting away. Or some areas make it hard to get a good view, angles and such, with other people standing over top them or near them blocking your view. It would be a great little feature just to examine the designs players come up with.

Banks

They can be super hard to keep organized. I would suggest taking a look at RuneScape’s banking system, it’s not perfect but it’s pretty good, and way easier to keep organized. Would be cool to have a system similar to that. As well as item locks, placing an item in a specific spot in your bank and having it locked to that spot, so whenever I take something out, I can quickly double click to store it right back in it’s place. Also faster scroll dragging when moving an item from the top of the bank to a slot on the bottom, currently the fastest way to do it, is to remove the item then scroll to the bottom and then drag the item from your inventory into the slot in the bank.

Guild Calendars

Yeah that would be nice, events and planning.

Also a Game Calendar would be cool too, showing us events in the game at the time, like Winters Day, etc, and when upcoming events will take place. Also the ability to set dates, and have a notification pop up in your mail reminding you of when something is happening. Would make general management much nicer.

So that is about all I can think of for the time being. If anyone read this far, please feel free to give me feedback on my ideas, and how they could be made better or what have you. Thank you!

Well that makes me sadface.

PetricaKerempuh.7958:

hahaha. this is as old as game…

Not sure what that means.

EdgarMTanaka.7291:

I like OP’s idea ^^
Not showing stats or anything just cosmetic and what kind of armor.
But I just got a bad idea on top of that since I like when people whisper me and say they like how my character looks

There could also be a feature where when you “inspect” another players cosmetic you can also check a box for “Like” by doing this you can check the cosmetics later on like ‘What was it that player had now?’ and also players can see how many players have checked the box and see how many who “Likes” or “Tracks” your armor :P Thats alot of work I know but … :P

I like that idea!

Ok so I noticed that you can search for armor based off category, but only rarity, piece, and level. Why can’t you search for a type of armor? Like have an option to only search for Light, Medium, or Heavy armor? Would make it a lot easier to buy stuff.

No. It will be used for gear checks and nothing else. Elitists like Bartosz above have enough of a stranglehold over this game as it is. Don’t give them additional tools to lock out normal players.

Unless they did it the way I suggested above where other players can only see the skin and dyes you’re using, not the stats or even the name of the base item.

The base view would be a bit like what you currently get in your own dye menu, showing each armor piece, whether it’s displayed or hidden, and the dyes it uses. But then hovering over an armor piece would show only the name of the skin.

This would allow players to see what skins other players are using and how they’ve dyed them to get a particular look but could not possibly be used as any kind of gear check.

Exactly.

I agree adding gearcheck would kill somethings, but having it just to be able to see what gear it is, dyes, skins, and not Runes, sigils and such is the best way to do it.

YES! That is perfect!

So this has been a little thing that has bugged me since I started playing the game. I love the fashion options the game has and how you can create your own look. However I find my self staring at other players characters a lot when I’m just wandering around towns or something. Whenever I see something cool that I really like, or a piece of armor that I don’t know, I have to whisper that person to find out.

What I want is to be able to view players characters. This way you can see a full model of the character, and what armor they have on. This would really be a great feature. Also having it display dyes and wardrobe collections as well, so you can compare yours with other players. This would be a really useful feature to have, and I have no idea why the game doesn’t have it.

Please give us this feature!

Thanks

That didn’t work… sadly, I’m gonna try something support recommended see if that works. If not I guess it’s back to the drawing board.

I’ll try that, I put it on High Performance and the Max Pro State was at 100%, then I changed Min Pro State to 5%. I’ll test the game out now and see how that works out.

Is there like no fix for this at all, I mean every post I have seen on this topic, there is no fix. Does this mean I can just never play the game?

I get that all the time, and I just restored my computer so there should be no problem.

I updated my graphics driver and it still crashes.

My game keeps crashing all the time, I can’t even play for longer then 10mins, sometimes less then 5mins. I really wanna play the game, and I have had this problem since I got the game. Sometimes I can make it through hours of play but, most of the time I have to play but constantly restarting the game. I don’t even know how I made it to level 80 with all the crashing. I really wanna get this fixed. I just restored my computer, so there should be no reason I am having these crashing, My PC can definitely handle this game.
