Guild Wars 2

3 sets at the same time @ 1 ticket is good enough. Otherwise the value per ticket skyrockets since people have to decide between several sets.

Look at the current prices for Chaos and Tormented. Very high even though they only cost 1 ticket each.

Outfits save me a lot of money because I refuse to buy them.

They should stay account bound. It keeps them more exclusive.

Yes, I hate them and I made them ragequit maps a few times before by simply tagging up myself, collecting some good people and then attacking their zergs.

According to my calculations 29665 is the current maximum possible achievement points, including 15k daily, Black lion collections and all WvW achievements.
So 30k+ will be possible when AddOn comes.

But how many points are wrapped up in those WvW Achievements that are still a few years from anyone completing them? I would guess probably 300 or so. Wonder how many achievement points the expansion will have available on release.

After around 3k hours in WvW I have 164 of 809 possible achievement points there. So the AP there are in fact quite unrealistic.

Nice, judging from the daily achievement popping up its a fairly recent screenshot, too.

in EU almost everyone uses TS over mumble
I have never been asked to join a mumble server ever in GW2, TS is very common though

Steam takes 30% cut. Way too much to be worth it for Anet.

It seems that you can choose between Radiant and Hellfire Chestpiece at 30k AP already. So I assume 33k will be choice of legskin and 36k choice of chestpiece again.

I fixed the wiki already because it assumed 30k = choice of leg skin.

I think the caps got changed (lowered) several times sind release. Its hard to tell what the real numbers are
How old is the 89 people on tag screenshot? A few weeks ago Evil Liou said ebg cap is 70 max which seems realistic to me.

Sounds like an exploit which needs fixing.

U never played GW1

I did. I have 50/50 and GWAMM (long before GW2 was released).

Tseikk.9032:

balance wise it’s better to atleast keep the cap where it is, if not lower it even more. If you don’t like being stuck in a que, how about transfering away from your overstacked server? There are still servers that can barely fill a single map on prime time.

Lag wise it’s even better – i have noticed barely any lag after the cap got lowered.

I think lowering the map cap is a win-win situation.

Nah its loose – loose. Atm SFR has 34 queue even though there was no commander for like an hour.

Discounts happen every now and then.

Yes I am always concerned when Anet might adjust something

I’m all for another WvW tournamant IF the losing side in each match gets the most rewards.

sounds like the most useless tournament ever

Coming from a supporter of Ultimate Dominator farming in OS I take that as a compliment.

I fail to see the connection. Loosers should get nothing and not the best/most rewards.

The fractal weapon droprate isnt that bad. Its only a problem if you already have a bunch of them or want a specific skin.

I have only 4 of them from drops. They’re pretty rare, but still nowhere near as path recipes from dungeons are.

Recipes drop quite often, once I found 4 recipe within 2 days Same recipes on both days even xD

I think I have a larger sample size here.

I’ve accumulated between 80-85k total Shards of Zhaitan, but it wasn’t until around ~65k until I got my first recipe from ANY of the four paths, which was the bloodstone fragment recipe.

They are rare as hell ^^

I must be insanely lucky then to find 2x the same recipes on consecutive days. Too bad they are worthless and I would prefer to have that luck in other parts of the game.

Mercenaries trigger defense events, so they should give defense credit, too. Its either an oversight or Anet logic.

Ballads.2509:

I like the mechanic as it is. It gives a solo player a way to significantly contribute w/o being involved in the main fight. We need more ways a solo player can impact battles not less. 1 thing i like about the new map is all the shrines are both solo-able and outside the main fortresses. I hope to see 3 way roamer fights over these.

Solo players shouldnt be able to annoy a whole map 24/7 by tagging a keep. Yes we could come to kill you, but the maps are small so you will be back before the 3min timer is over and it starts again. To stop a single tagger with a defensive build and equipment you need a lot more than just one solo player.
And I disagree with solo players needing more impact. You can farm Dolyaks and flip camps. Thats plenty of impact for a single person of 80 or so on the map.

They also undelete legendaries if there were any on the deleted toon as far as I heared.

Why can solo people still tag a keep with a single hit and block your waypoints that way?
Those people usually use a runaway build so its almost impossible to stop them solo, so you need to outnumber them. If you manage to kill them they can easily run back within the 3minutes and tag again. Its just a silly mechanic which needs rework.
I am not sure how exactly to change the mechanics since its possible to open gates without siege, but a single person hitting a gate and then running away should definitely not tag a keep.
The most simple way to fix it would probably be that the events are only triggered if the structure has less than 99% health. That would prevent it from being tagged as long as you put in 4 supplies every now and then.

Well this is definitely bugged.
We just killed a whole zerg inside the event circle and I didnt get the event.

I also tried if killing the dredges who invade the camp in EBG triggers the event. It didnt. Makes no sense whatsoever considering dredges, hyleks and ogres can flip your camps if you didnt upgrade them.

Khezekiah Bellamy.5016:

ronpierce.2760 WHY YOU BE NECRO’ING?

Probably because engineers are getting an aoe Moa skill with only 30s cooldown.

I wish they could at least let us buy the tournament ticket skins with honor badges if they wont make any new WvW seasons. I wouldnt mind paying 5k badges per skin.

Even if they would get +1000% MF it would be barely noticeable considering how useless MF is. And you know Anet, we are lucky if something even gives a 50% mf buff, so you can expect 10% mf from this. 1.1 * almost zero chance for precursor is still almost zero.

It’s going to be lordkrall isn’t_it?

I’m pretty much certain he’s not American.

What a shame, I am sure lordkrall would be the best choice for this position.

Malediktus.9250:

PvPers dont need skins or legendaries, they play with standard models anyway.

People only use skins for the sake of the enemy team?
I’m not even going to dignify this ridiculous comment with a proper answer.

Personally I always use the most expensive and exclusive stuff I can find to show them off to others and not to myself.
If others cant see my stuff I might as well use iron armor for 2-3s each.

ilmau.9781:

More than two weeks has been passed since the map cap reduction…

so, we have to assume this is this going to be a permanent change?

The borderlands are back to normal for some time again already, only EBG still has the lower cap.

What about having some patience, this is probably not the most important bug atm.

Extreme.8350:

u are not rendered useless as moa if it was petrified then i would agree but u can still fight

Its like giving someone a knife in a fight against a battletank with uranium ammo.

Even if Aoe Moa would only last one nano second it would be overpowered as long as it deletes your minions, conjured weapons, guardian books and transformations.

If you get the world full error although only 4 people are in the instance, one person needs to leave the instance, then both can join again. I guess the server refreshes the player counter every time someone joins or leaves only.

To clarify this, from stream is like 4s MoA AoE duration every 30s.

Basically it’s like a 4s Daze AoE (but u can press moa skills ).

Notice that you can use dodges and number 5 and duration would be basically expired.

It’s not clear if this MoA AoE can remove transformations.

Its very unlikely that it wont destroy nekro minions or cancel elite transformations. So just another “I win” skill for engis.

We don’t know this, probably it will transform for 4s and after that Lich, Rampage etc. will continue.

Transformations overwrite each other, so there is no reason why it wont be the case here.

I salvage 100+ items a few times a day, never had this happen

Its very annoying. Taking so long to fix such a gamebreaking bug is simply unacceptable, no matter how hard it is to fix it. If ~300 employes are not enough to get the expansion + regular updates done, hire more employes.

PvPers dont need skins or legendaries, they play with standard models anyway.

Probably PvE players who want a chance at Mini Llamas.

Things like moa should not even exist in PvP and they make an aoe form. Exactly what it needs to keep people away from PvP.

As if the moa elite skill wouldnt be terrible enough, the devs are trolls.

Still USA only and no 8000 gems per month. No thanks.

I honestly don’t think there is any loss to the community due to the fact you are not only ineligible but also not willing to volunteer even if you were.

Volunteering for companies just doesnt make any sense. Privatizing profits (—>Anet/Ncsoft) but socializing the losses (time and electricity in this case) doesnt make any sense to me. Anet isnt a charity so no reason to work for free for them.

roxybudgy.8205:

People asking for payment or compensation of some sort for being a forum specialist? Really?

Anet is a business. Why would I help them being more successful without any form of payment?

Glad I made one of each color when it was cheap
