Hmm, you could try going to a library to study instead. A quiet environment that’s far away from your own computer. Most libraries now have computers there that you can use for study purposes if you need the internet to study.
Some of the skins seem to look better on same races and horrible on another (in my opinion), it gets a bit frustrating when you see how good something looks on humans but doesn’t look so great on asura or charr.
From my own personal experience, debuffs in other MMOs are generally more unique to the class, which makes it much easier to balance around. Because there is so many generic conditions in Guild Wars 2 that classes share, a cap is a bit more difficult to balance around. Because this is the case, I can not personally think of a way to actually fix it.
one way that may be possible, when people log in or map into silverwaste they will already have a form of tracking that can only be worked off from doing events. If breach/vines come up and they have not worked it off. They do not get to participate in the events. It will boot them out just like it does with vines and tracking.
You will see Silverwastes get abandoned pretty quickly with that.
Once again, the topic of the thread is skins in Guild Wars 2. Do stop derailing. There are in fact modern studies of it, which is what i’m referring to. Not the golden section of art and architecture which is used as a guide and not something definitive. Humans are not sheep that follow a pre-determined rule.
Have never bought a booster (besides the occasional free ones in the promotional tab), and the only boosters I have ever used are magic find and crafting.
Aesthetics has and always will be personal opinion.
Ehhhhuh… no.
Read up on the golden section. And that is just one small piece of literally thousands of years of evidence. There is in fact quantifiable preferences preprogrammed not only in to the human psyche but all through the natural world. That isn’t to say people don’t defy those natural preferences, but that is exactly what it is, defiance; a willful, deliberate, and conscious decision to go against what feels natural, the psychological result of counterculturalism.
Considering that is actually something based on surveys (the modern theory), there is no way to actually define it as fact. Some groups of people are attracted to the same thing, while other groups of people are attracted to other features. It certainly isn’t a hard theory to defy, which is why so many people do defy it. (This is purely based upon the fashion in Guild Wars 2.)
I remember when there was a fake balance patch leak, and one of the things in it was flesh golem turning into a kind of flesh shark. I was so sad when ArenaNet announced it was fake.
The main problem with the magic find boost is that it doesn’t affect the main source of loot at all: The champion bags. The perseverance buff just affects the extra loot you get from the bandit chests, but not the champion bag from the chest.
Though if the cooldown times of the events were significantly reduced, more people may stay, as at the moment there is just too much time standing around doing nothing. And the pact preparations just takes way too long.
Probably just specializations. They would have dropped some kind of hint to it at PAX otherwise. Skills and traits are a major feature, which would have been announced at PAX.
There was one person that solod the giant champion in Harathi Hinterlands to fully complete the achievement. I wouldn’t advise that unless you are very dedicated though.
Considering the long respawn time of the event and the time to solo the champ we are looking at 500+ hours?

As both could work together, it could easily just be raising server caps so that more people can play on that server (active population). Active population has already been proven, so there’s not really any point of trying to disprove it. This will be my last post in this thread, as it’s starting to turn into a rather silly argument.
The servers are full due to the number of accounts calling it their home server. If accounts transfer off you can get on it.
It’s not good to spread around theories that have no evidence.
Show me yours then. Actual red quotes or wiki posts, not your personal anecdotes or your theories. Because I can post quotes that back me up.

“Connor, when you see a server FULL means that the people who’ve chosen that server as theirs, or players who have moved to that particular server, have reached the cap, independently of where did they create their accounts.”
If they’ve chosen that server, that means they chose it at character select and their account is there. The comment about where they created their account means you can create an account on one server then transfer that account to another server.

“You cannot move to a world that is listed as Full. However, that status varies throughout the day and tends to drop during off-peak hours, i.e. if you are unable to transfer, try again when there are fewer people playing, e.g. extremely early in the morning for the region’s datacenter, i.e. 0400-0600 UTC for the EU.”
That is active population. Case closed.
Yep. Because all you’ve been able to offer is personal anecdotes and random theories. When you have real quotes/facts to back you up, please speak up.
I just highlighted your post which proves that it is active population. It’s not my fault if you refuse to acknowledge it.
If it was based on population, then the game would refuse guesting also. A full server would be unable to be guested to.
Ok. Let’s say someone wants to transfer. What are they transfering but their account? If the game refuses to allow them to transfer on the basis that is is full, it’s because it’s holding all the accounts it’s allowed to hold. It’s only until accounts transfers over to a different server that spots open up.
They do this throughout the day but at night the new spots aren’t grabbed as fast as during the day (less people trying) so the spots stay open for a longer period of time. Making it easier to get that spot that opened up, which would be immediately taken during the day time.
That is your own speculation. My theory has already been proven, by your own post nonetheless, so this discussion is over.

Not necessarily. It could only restrict new people transferring to that server, but not guesting because it’s sort of a ‘free test’ kind of thing. Not allowing new people to permanently transfer there to control server population. There is room for both theories to co-exist here.
The servers are full due to the number of accounts calling it their home server. If accounts transfer off you can get on it.

The precursor collections will not be easier, as they are precursors. In fact, this system is likely to be harder than grinding gold (which isn’t hard to beat). Nothing about grinding gold is hard.
With Rytlock playing such a major part in the expansion announcement, I think a statue of Rytlock in Revenant form would fit very well for a physical collectors edition item.
Bump. Despite what the naysayers may say, the so called “vocal minority” actually ends up being the majority. Who would have thought
Majority? Where? Because you’re definitely not talking about gw2.
Ppl who want raids are playing other games (including me) because GW2 has no raid daaaaa. I bet there is more ppl in LFR queue and inside raids during prime time in WoW than in WvWvW and all world bosses combined in GW2 :P These ppl are paying monthly fee to punch overzized NPCs… they could do it in GW2 and spend their money here but for whatever reason (lazyness?) Arenanet decided to not tap into this source of players (usually very dedicated btw).
Those so called ‘dedicated’ players went back to WoW from Wildstar pretty quickly. It doesn’t matter if you add raids or not, most of those WoW players will go back because that is where the community and guild they know is.
It does. Just like any other map that uses megaserver. If you feel like the map has very low population and you’re not getting the volunteer pop-up, then there is probably people afking, or doing the jumping puzzle.
Honestly, even a dueling system can cause problems. Wildstar had it, and when I even played on a PvE server I kept being spammed with duel challenges, and then harassed in whisper if I declined.
