Few people play female Charr

I’ll put up pictures once I actually have the money to afford all the armor skins I’m going to be using (Well, I could if I sold off all my trade assets in one go – all that T3 stuff is expensive >.<, but I’ve only got a small amount of actual liquid assets.), but at any rate I have a total of 7 female charr & 1 male charr & 1 empty slot.

wow, while I haven’t stalked the other race forums as diligently, it seems to me if you like the charr, you have full charr slots XD
But I’m in the same boat with pictures, my Charr is like 1/3 done armor-wise

‘Sixth ranger clause’?
but yeah, for example Largos might have Sayeh Al’Rajihd or however you spell her name, because she’s a prominent member of the PS. Her profession might conflict with Caithe, not sure.

@IVeracityl, since I can’t quote apparently, your first idea about having some way to deactive traps…

yeah, this sounds good. More of the lazers part of CoE (only 3 people need to be able to get to the other side). Maybe like a corridor full of mobs/traps, but if you take a side route, someone can deactivate some of the hazards. That way, it’s faster, but you’d miss out on maybe a money mob in there if you deactivate the traps. Or some other incentive, not sure how to balance the choice

While I’d like more gimmicky things in dungeons, Jumping Puzzles would make everyone complain even more about useless things to complain about. Take for example the somewhat challenging Colussus Fractal. (I’m all for JP’s, but people are pretty stupid nowadays and wouldn’t like them as much as us)

Bonus Mission Pack?

in Lore

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

While I’d love for something like this to happen (since I don’t have to pay out of game money for it anymore) I don’t see it happening anytime soon. The bonus missions were released after all the other campaigns and stuff were, and they started working on GW2. So it was a way of like keeping the fans there since they weren’t making any more expansions.
In short, I’d like it, but I don’t see it coming soon. Also, now that I think about it, fractals kind of are like this. A Fractal could be any event in time or space, so they could just add new ones to fotm that are historic events in Tyria, such as the ones you mentioned.
Bleh, the more I think about it, the more problems I find. Having these bonus missions would also be weird, because unlike gw1, you pretty much have to party with others for dungeons and whatnot. So unless they made the missions as easy as your PS, then you’d all be running around as Livia while she’s getting the scepter >.<

But, I digress. Fun ones:
Any interesting after story of Heroes/Henches from gw1 (ebonhawke founding would be nice).
Luxons/Kurzicks being unified.
Joko enslaving Elona.
The Guild Wars (you know, since that’s kinda the reason why we’re here)
Important race-specific events that made them how they are (firstborn Sylvari stuff, the Norn fleeing Jormag, Kalla Scorchrazor’s female empowerment)
Being able to play as a Karka (just so I can feel powerful for a little bit)

Charr/Human treaty solves ghost problem?

in Lore

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

Old question, but some things. Magdaer (adelbern’s sword) was in AC story mode, Eir took it to be reforged, and that’s all we know about that one, I think the intent was to give it to Logan or something. Jennah could bring the sword to Ascalon, but Wade Samuelsson, the guy who kind of leads Ebonhawke, is a Doric descendant, so he’s more than capable of doing the same thing.
The treaty imo will go through regardless of the ghosts being gone, but I think that the purification will occur afterwards as a sign of good faith. You scratch our back, we’ll scratch yours (let’s kill dragons, then ghostbust)

Realign Order (Priory, Whispers, Vigil)

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

Not sure how far you are, but a nice solution would be to just let us get any order set, because of events later on in the game
There’s a way around this problem, but it costs 2 fine trans stones. Get a character of the order armor you want, and your ‘main’. Buy the armor from the order vendor while they’re in the order, then transmute it onto a ‘white’ rarity armor. This makes it account bound, while still keeping the appearance. Switch to your ‘main’, and transmute the account bound order armor onto whatever you want

^this. I don’t know what story you’re playing, but more often than not characters have amnesia rather than know me. Also, I really don’t understand why we’re nitpicking the blacksmiths. They show up for one story step during the pact part. And the celebration scene, if that counts. It’s not like they have any viewable effect on us, so who cares what races they are

Verdant vs. Warden vs. Nightmare

in Sylvari

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

ah, my bad
well, if you really want verdant, you could just buy the skin off TP. No level requirement, 20 silver isn’t bad, you could always just go masterwork and transmute (I’m basing these numbers off your earlier post). I think there are other places you can buy the skins, I remember just doing a heart and they had the greatsword one (Gendarran? Brisban?) I know mount maelstrom has a heart with some verdant too, but that doesn’t help since you wanted earlier levels I believe

And the addition of weapons would be much more viable than creating new professions, so we can expect that to happen more than the latter option

Glacial ones are just uncorrupted ice, I guess. THey drop from regular ice elementals. Not sure why there’s a need for two ice lodestones, but that’s what we got :/

The blacksmiths just happened to be ones encountered in the PS for different races (not sure if Izu was in a racial step)
And for the amount of Sylvari, they’re the ones immune to Zhaitan, so the more of them as leaf shields, the better

group gameplay

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

When I used to do the dragon hunts, people would always want to group up because it supposedly gave better drops from the chest. I don’t know how much validity this statement has.
But there really is no incentive to being in a group, except for hanging with friends in the same zone, just helping each other out.

Warbands and Charr Love

in Lore

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

I don’t think we’ve talked about them for a while (sorry if this is more of a ‘charr’ post than a lore one). I’m possibly making another charr, but I want to try out a different legion, yet still keep him in the same warband as my other. How impossible is that? In the blood legion story, you can recruit a former ash legion (I think he was ash, Soure Doomsday) after he was supposedly coercing with the flame.
Also, how strong are charr commitments? For example, Snarl and Galina, the two prominent charr in orr, are obviously together or getting together, despite their legion/warband differences. Would they stay together after having cubs, or is it more like have babies for the greater good of the legions, then never see your spouse/girlfriend/boyfriend again?

Best Axe using class?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

I’m getting Frostfang for ranger, though I do use axe/axe on war. Ranger focuses more on condition damage, while war is pure power, similar to the necro’s version.
If you can’t tell, I’m ranger biased, so I’ll just add that range has more of an aoe theme with both axes, but war has a couple of aoes too (2 and 5). Necro only has the skill 3 aoe. They all seem to share a crippling type of move also (chill for ranger)

Most people do skip vistas, btw, unless it’s their first time.
A simpler solution would just to have the fractal’s loading effect engulf a character when they waypoint (the blue dematerialization effect).
That shows that they’re being transported somewhere, but doesn’t require extra gear or wasted time making the world zoom in and out

Am I missing something?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

The mid level zones 20-60, around that range, are pretty empty, because there is no use going to them once your story is done, the map is completed, or just hanging out for a dungeon team. Anet said the updates coming soon will adress this problem, saying ‘they want to give incentives to replay middle maps’.
If you go into Lion’s Arch, you’ll see just how packed the place is. In short, the distribution of players is messed up, but the amount is still high

Verdant vs. Warden vs. Nightmare

in Sylvari

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

verdant weapons are karma weapons in the grove and rata sum
Gotta be less than 20k karma imo
and nightmare weapons show up correctly, they are more of a purple and sinister version of the other two, but there aren’t really any palette swaps or nothing. It’s a different design (unlike the CoE and SE weapons which are just red versions of existing weapons)

A timer of sorts would be good, although not that extreme imo. some people are just slow to complete JP’s. Maybe lock them out for a half hour instead.
If they do remove the badges from it, then your last suggestion of making them drop more from defense/assault events would be nice.
And the siege inside the puzzle should honestly have been implemented already

General Advice on Juggernaut

in Crafting

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

^You didn’t link anything
Anyway, the basic legendary requirements are pretty straightforward. Do the WvW JP’s for easier BoH, Heavy moldy bags for T6 mats, or just hang out in Orr a lot. The biggest problem for this legendary in particular is the silver doubloons. They’re only found in JP chests, but not guaranteed, so you’ll most likely be buying those off the TP
Edit: the doubloons also come from ‘tiny miner’s bags’

Why is there no corrupted Tengu?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Mystic Starfish.2586

Mystic Starfish.2586

^I hope you’re being sarcastic
For an honest answer, Tengu are all holed up in the Dominion of Winds. There are like one or two in the PS that you interact with, so it’s HIGHLY unlikely that you’d see any risen/corrupted whatnot Tengu. Just like with Largos, just because you don’t see them, doesn’t mean they don’t exist.

Unless you already have the 500k+ karma for shards, I’d say get used to doing fractals in the meantime. That way, you have to options for getting them.

Well, that leaves you with Thieves and Warriors, which are short and longbow respectively. Thief is aoe conditions, imo, and war is burning through longrange.

The reason this won’t happen is because that’s a race specific class. The only way I could see them ever possibly doing something like that is if each race had a race specific class who for all intents and purposes was the same class, but has a different name flavored for the race.

Opitional Pet For Rangers?

Like I said, ranger is my main. I’ve got a good 400 hours on him, swap pets constantly if they’re close to dying, pull them away from mobs. The only really awful times it dies are against mobs like Subject Alpha, but that’s not really a test of strength, just endurance
