I would say Ayrilana did address one of your points. Please read your own post. You were the one that claimed GW1 was an MMO.
lol
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guild_Wars
“Guild Wars is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG)”The wiki also got recently changed on April 27th to show MMORPG where it has been shown as competitive/cooperative online rpg.
lol
Because there’s no such thing as a “CORPG”.
That’s a term coined by anet to make GW1 stand out.Gw2, WoW, ESO, those are all MMORPGs. GW is a lobby game with instanced maps. The difference is in the playing area. While you can stand around in the cities, the actual maps you play on in GW are solo to up to 8 people. Up to 8 people is not Massively Online for the parts where people play.
cool
So if I go and edit the wiki put in single player game you would then claim it was a single player game?
Who are you talking to?
At any rate, ANet said it’s a CORPG rather than an MMO. I’m going to say they know what it is more than random, anonymous people who update the wiki.
The one I quoted Mavis ofcourse.
You assume organized groups. That’s the difference between fractals and raids: Most Raid groups are organized and on voice chat. Most Fractal groups are PUGs. PUGs have to communicate by typing and are in general a random collection of classes rather than a carefully organized composition. You can’t apply the same standard to mainly PUG content as you can to organized content.
Yea and you dont have to type at all for any of the fractal instances.

So not outfits anymore instead more like mix and match outfits/armor skins?
Rather see more outfits converted into armor skins then mate.
That’s almost certain never going to happen even once (maybe a part of a skin). The very reason for outfits is that they don’t need to be mixed & matched.
The OP’s idea is much more likely, which is why a lot of folks have suggested it, in various different ways.
- Pay gems to buy a custom outfit slot. You choose the pieces and get unlimited use as an outfit.
- Saved skins — not an outfit, but rather the game just remember which set of skins you chose. Usually suggested as an update to the wardrobe; probably more likely as a gem store option.
- Combinations of the two.
Custom outfits will require a lot of work, from the UI to the code behind the scenes. Saved skins would be easier, because it’s just saving a list, rather than a new mechanic. I’d be happy to see either in the game.
Oh I see I miss read the OP totaly.
With 183 transumtation charges I dont see why its needed maybe OP should map complete more and change armors less untill they have a buffer?
so sylvari always keep their head on target so how many times have the broken their necks by now?
I’m not sure what is wrong with race being part of the meta as class is part of the meta. Nothing should be so unequal that people don’t want to, or are shunned if they play a certain class. So the same should be true if race mattered to your build.
So you would be happy you leveled up a human warrior when all the meta groups say to you sorry charr is better race you cant join us.
Are you “happy” if you level up that Warrior and all the meta groups don’t want Warriors? What’s the difference?
The diffrence is that its not a 1/5 chance that even if I had the right class desiried for group then I wouldent get into the group anyway since it was the wrong race.
Its like raid groups would suddenly need 300 li but oh wait you have to also have atleast 1 legendary armor unlock bud but no you also have to have the map completion star at name.
Edit
This could work, if people could race change if not you would have to level up 45 characters to have 1 of each race and class combo to always stay relevant is that what you want?
Compared to now you can level up 9 of what ever race you want and always have a class that can go into a meta group

Interesting replies, however I agree with Sweet, I don’t think you should be able to whisper someone when you’re pretending to be offline. It doesn’t make sense although I’m sure someone could post a time when it was advantageous to them for it to be this way.
To me, wanting it to stay the same just so you can throw insults or snarky one-liners without retort isn’t any better a reason.
I recall way back in GW beta making all kinds of suggestions for better chat functions and more control over your chat, including more windows. Things never changed back then so I am pretty skeptical of getting anything to change now. Even should the whole community rise up and say “Yes, we want this.” I don’t see Anet ever making it happen.
Block the one slinging one liners and insults report and move on.
I got 2 lilys in total since the start of hot.
Seems to be as rare as giant eyes had zero of those before they became a map reward.
In many cities in Europe, you don’t even get a regular sized coffee for 2,60€.
That’s a lot for just coffee.
cost bettwen 3-5 euro here for a cup of coffie in norway so no it really isent.
Raided 2 bosses and didn’t get rewards… No in-game mail… GG
As gaile posted above in this very thread it can take up to 1 day or even 2 mate. ( they are doing it by hand)
Edit
Also what day did you down said bosses?
True except that the entire gamedesign of GW2 is based around no significant powercreep.
Basic one. Expansion brought pretty huge powercreep and kicked almost all vanilla specs out of meta.
Again true and one of the main reasons I have my doubts that a pure sidegrade model towards elite specs will be upheld. Since the release of HoT though there has been a lot of balance changes and at least from a pve perspective, a lot of classes were balanced to be closer to each other performance wise.
That being said, HoT was the first elite specialisation and arenanets first attempt at expanding the class system. If elite specialisation are ment to be sidegrades to each other, the powercreep this time around should be less (ideally close to nill).
Yes but they were suposed to be side grades to vanilla specs aswell as the poster you replied to pointed out they were not so, its all up in the air if the new ones will be side grades or more powerful as of this moment.
More 80 boosts? I doubt that very much mate.
So not outfits anymore instead more like mix and match outfits/armor skins?
Rather see more outfits converted into armor skins then mate.
You can test the classes out with the boost as long as you dont leave the area it plop you down in mate.
I’m not sure what is wrong with race being part of the meta as class is part of the meta. Nothing should be so unequal that people don’t want to, or are shunned if they play a certain class. So the same should be true if race mattered to your build.
So you would be happy you leveled up a human warrior when all the meta groups say to you sorry charr is better race you cant join us.
if you dont own episode 1 or 2 you cant unlock it mate.
Seems you only own episode 5 the current released one.
They can whip up weapons fast enough for the Black Lion chests. Surely a couple times a year they could make and put into the loot tables a set of new weapons, and rotate out an old set. Then bring back previous sets periodically for a while.
Can agree with that for every x number of sets in store lets say 4, 1 set should get into game.
Kinda funny that they could make armor skins for store before then suddenly it was to much work when policy changed to outfits in store and armor skins in game.
Wooden Potatoes version of this idea remains the best one: Racial masteries. Any one from any race and train to learn all racial skills from every other race.
Boom, no worry about a charr being more powerful than a sylvari. Sylvari can simply learn the charr skills and fight on equal footing.
And that defeats the purpose of the OP that want race to matter, we should just delete the 4 other races and go back to only human then.
Less hassle for anet and same result.
Thanks alot for the compesation and for talking to us we like seeing red posts
it do seem to drop more helm, gloves and boots compared to leggings chest and shoulder tho.
Before dident you get chest and could pick what ever you wanted?
Dont forget to update your ticket that you dont need help anymore mate.
We already have loot like this
How many of the exotic listed here under world boss drops do you have mate?
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Treasure_Hunter
Same with sunless weapons and wurm armor/minis.
How many of the aether blade path special weapon skins do you have?
Have you finished https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ambrite_weapons ?
Personaly Im 50% done with the first got 3 sunless weapons and 2 of the aetherblade path weapons plenty more to find.
Edit
You are asking them to put gemstore weapon skins in the game so they would lose money, it wont happen mate.
I got 3 over the years
Well how many blood rubies do you get in total on all the chars maybe you hit the daily cap?
Go t4 and keep ranged to stay away from agony?
Edit
afew mins later, dont even answer in game if eu or na since they found a group
(edited by Linken.6345)
If its even on the table or not?
The good new is, yes it is on the table.
The bad new is, it’s a reallllllllly big table with lots of stuff on it.Is there room on the table for old timey swimsuits?
Ofcourse just dont think they will be under the radar scope that anet need to keep track of the reallllly big table.
You wouldent and thats why its a blessing it was introduced into the game.
Why do you need swimsuits when we have buttcapes?
Why do you need buttcapes when you have crotchflaps?
We dont need it but its already here so no extra dev time required.
If % of usage would be an indicator of strength… I can only imagine how the bearbow ranger would have to be nerfed into the ground :S
Srsly: Don’t balance by such numbers without context.
Thats so 2013 its smoke scale longbow now mate.
where did you get the % from?
They are pulled out of thin air as examples.
Well if you have more then one necro they may want to bounce those lovely conditions back onto bloom.
why would you want to waste one epidemic if you can just cleave the champ with condis and dont have to bounce.
I dont see how your wasting 1 epi can you elaborate?
Your dubbling back the conditions you just epi from boss so dubble the damage on main target.
I have another update to add:
Remove Swampland. The worst fractal of them all. Bloomhunger in tier 4 does way too much damage. Has way too much cc, and will repeatedly harass whoever is downed or trying to res the downed. It’s just a nuisance and too many damage sources.
Still haven’t figured out why ppl getting downed there so much. Sure, on a bad day or one mistake from time to time can down you once but in the end it’s a clear sign of refusing to use the dodge key or just move a bit. Must be the same ppl calling out the champ and tunnelvision damaging it every fricking time instead of ignoring because it’ll die to aoe/epi/whatever.
Well if you have more then one necro they may want to bounce those lovely conditions back onto bloom.
I see well its in the middle of the night a keyboard slip here and there should be expected
More raid bosses may lower the time gate, but the time you need to spend raiding each week will go up in return.
Yes, if you want to obtain something faster, you need to spend more time each day on it. Nothing special about it – almost everything in this game works that way.
Indeed, but currently the 13 bosses can be handled by the time budget of a casual, it will get harder as more bosses are added. Not that I expect any new raid before expansion 2.
But for the casual that finds a raid boss that’s just really hard for them do, more bosses means they get more % of the available LI each day.
Considering there are titles for things that require no skill at all, it’s not reasonable to say that if there is a title for getting all of the HoT legendary armor, than the core legendary weapons and the HoT legendary weapons each get their own title.
Why not tho they take just as much dedication to make/farm for as the armor tho and if someone want to buy said title with their credit card ( talking about the one for all core legendaries) how is that any diffrent then the guy who buy raid kills to get their armors?
Not sure what you’re getting at here. What point are you trying to make? Because you seem to think I’m against weapons getting titles based on what impression I get from the post. I’m not. So maybe I’m misunderstanding what point you’re trying to make?
Well maybe I read it wrong but saying it’s not reasonable to say that if there is a title for getting all of the HoT legendary armor, than the core legendary weapons and the HoT legendary weapons each get their own title.
Sure sound like you say legendary armor should get a title but weapons should not.
the only thing bad about bloomhunger is the boring trash mob phase. it should be removed
Nah I much rather they droped loot, same goes for other enemies in urban battle ground before main boss for example.
Edit
Since its alot of animals in swamp maybe introduce another leather farm hint hint nudge nudge

Why do you guys keep making posts like this everytime a new gem store skin comes out? Why do you think being that negative is ok? If you don’t like the skin they shouldn’t be allowed to make it?
The new hat matches the other hats. Breaking news you aren’t going to like every piece of clothing in a store.
Well I do like everything in the Dressman store so there is that.
That is the system I would be fine with seeing. I just don’t think it would be well received for an old map getting tokens is my issue with it.
Edit
Add to this would be fun if we could upgrade blue sam’s to exotic by getting alot of em chucking into the forge.
The spoons have a use, they’re apart of the Koutalophile collection.
As for making a merchant to obtain it that would involve making a currency only obtainable from Tequatl, or saying ok everyone can have it if it’s karma or gold. I think either option is poor. Thus it should remain the way it is to not burn the people who already have it.
The fractal skins are in a different boat because they have always been exotics while the blue one’s are only skin tickets. Then the change made a reason to collect the full golden fractal set in a growing game mode. While Tequatl is just an easy event for most people. To me it just opens a bad door of make this skin easier and this one and this one.
We already got 3 we could use the teqatil tailpiece, sunless sigil or fang accessory all 3 only drop from Teq.

Oh take away one of the good updated bosses no thank you, just did him 12 hours ago with 4 necros and a thief zero problems.
What was needed and changed was the boring stand and shake while you hit me fight it used to be.
In before every chest in tair is swarmed by player made shops.
they have merged it into just one merchant mate.
Anyone in squad can cancel invites and doing so says they kicked said person so thats probabely what happened.
Only commanders and lieutenants can kick when you got into said squad from my understanding.
They left dungeons for fractals as their 5-man content, thats why they nerfed the reward.
psst just so you know they buffed the rewards again.
The rewards are substantive, but they remain less than they were at peak. That’s a nerf (and one that some folks will never forgive, even though that wasn’t the main reason people are less enthusiastic about dungeons).
With more tokens each path and gold compareable bettwen full run before and now how is it i nerf? (someone pointed it out in another dungeon thread that the net gold from all paths was 1 gold less then before nerf. and thats not counting the bonus 40 tokens each path and +150 random tokens ever 8 paths that you do 5 times and can turn into gold)
Edit
And now I dont find it maybe it got deleted.

Cant you get the chrono runes in wvw?
Well in the middle of the night ds tend to fail mate.
If you dont have a commander tag how do you end your squad in the lfg?
You can open a squad for LFG regardless if you have a tag or not.
Yes I know but my question was how do I then take it away, when full from the lfg?
