Even if Shiro returned for the third time as the villain, he’d still be better than Scarlet.
But yeah, why do people assume Cantha’s emperor is evil? So what if he banished all the other races? At least their don’t have rat midgets and cow cat humans.
Allso, wasn’t Cantha “The Land of the Dragon”?

Eh… one can only dream, at this pace we can expect expansion by the end of 2020…
You know, they could at least explain us why are these delays happening.
But that won’t happen, I’m willing to be most of the A.Net staff is just too busy working on LS.
Back, like half a year ago, Colin stated only a smart part of A.Net is working on LS and there are other projects in work – where?
Open world content will never be challenging unless they fix the current zerging meta.
If they make hard instances, people will moan and whine that they can’t solo/face roll it with ease.
So there, what can Arena Net do that would satisfy everyone? Probably nothing.
Happened few days ago.
Was running next to tower wall and suddenly out nowhere my character literally jumped over it.
I’ve no idea how that happened, probably A.Net’s fault as usual – lag.
Neither good or bad, it depends what you prefer.
However, that being said, even though Arena Ner removed trinity (Warrior/Guardian/Mesmer still exists) they failed in creating 8 distinctively different classes.
Each profession should be unique and offer something completely different no other class can, unfortunately this aspect in GW2 is rather weak.
I was running Thief/Warrior for the last 5-4 Months in WvW and now switched to my Guardian who’s running Modified Cleric Build (3000 ATT/3000 Armor/960 Heal(With Zerker sword or 1190 with Cleric Staff/30% Crit Chance and 50% Crit damage), an easily solo camps or roam. I’m having trouble with Warriors while roaming, but that’s about it.
Are there any other developers currently working on other projects not related to LS that will eventually bring us new zones and/or dungeons, continents?
Will we be seeing bigger updates? I know you can’t probably answer this question, but could you perhaps confirm that there are teams working on “bigger” future content not related to LS? For example the Ring Of Fire islands, Crystal Desert.
At this moment, it seems everything goes into making LS and content related to LS.
Personally, I’m not heavily invested into GW2 lore, since it seems to be totally forgotten about GW1 lore I grew to love back in the days, therefore I really don’t care about this new Scarlet and invasions etc.
What happened to Livia? Where did Gods go? Where are the Mursat. Why can’t we access Dominion Of Winds.
Because I want Arena Net make something more qualitative?
I’m pretty sure majority both here on forums and in game really don’t consider living story great.
It would be much better if they made platinum league with JQ/SOR and BG and gold league with TC/FA/SoS/MAG/SBI +X.
No one enjoys fighting top tier servers.
If players want 8v8/15v15, why not give it to them? It’s clear that you (Arena Net) don’t want it, but players do. In the end, isn’t that what matters the most – what players want?
Heroes’ Ascent worked great in GW2, however ranks made the game mode frustrating for the newer players, not the team size.
I’m no designer or developer, but maps in HA/GvG were extremely simplistic with easy to understand objectives and mechanics, I find it hard to believe that it would be hard to recreate something similar in GW2.
Try out wvw sometime for you Trinity supports, Much more trinity in there then there ever will be in PvE.
Melee Train (Front Line): Tank and Aggro (Warr, Guard, Specialized Necro)
Back Line: DPS/Support (Eles, Necro, Engi)
Disruptor: Cause Chaos in back line (1-2 Thief/Ranger)
Also, I find PvP to be more enjoyable and challenging as all boss and dungeon mechanics can be memorized and learned. Making it extremely easy and simple. PvP (Large and Small Scale) You never know whats coming at you so it actually requires skill within your class and yourself.
Agro? Agro players? Come on, your opponents can’t be that bad.
Regardless of that, transfer to higher tier server and watch them all merge into one big blob, or watch the blob steamrolling over you.
HA was intense with Infuse RC/Infuse Monks reuired 1/4 , 1/2 second reaction time.
It required good reflexes, mana management, weapon switching etc, it sure as hell wasn’t just standing in one place casting 2-3 heal skills again and again.
But that is more about the challenge of having to have good reflexes instead of having to do with trinity roles
No. Healer. Healers needed good reflexes otherwise you were spiked to death in less than 1 second. I enjoyed that kind of a gameplay.
The whole team depended on me.
GW2? 5 random pugs, doesn’t matter what profession, skill level, sure it may take a bit more time, few deaths but you still can finish everything, no risk, no failure, no wipe, no restart.

Im for or against trinity, there should be an evolution, sadly GW2 didn’t create one.
Holy Trinity was replaced with holy Zerging/DPS spam, occasional dodge and #5.
This is what I know about the trinity:
tanks: spam taunt skills, put something heavy on the key mapped to that skill
healers: spam heal skills, put something heavy on the key mapped to that skill
dps; dps rotation
what do people like it so much?
…Actually requires you to know your role?
…Whole team relies on you?
…If you fail, everyone fails?
Challenge? Coordination? Team work?
If UWsc was so easy as people claim it to be – why did exp teams require you to show Stones to enter? Why did most random pug teams fail? Why were pug teams slow?
If Tequati was instanced and had better rewards you’d see people regularly farming him effortlessly with no TS. That’s how easy he is.
I won him 3 times out of 4 during the release week, but due to awful rewards I lost all desire to play this event.
DPS over everything else. Personally I find it extremely shallow.
PvE requires no healing and close to no support, only massive DPS.
I’d love to see content that actually makes it rewarding to play as a full cleric guardian, support ele, ranger or engineer, which doesn’t doesn’t slow down your team.
I miss risk, I miss failing, I miss team work, I miss coordination.
I hate – 1 1 1 1 1 1 . Combat may be more active but sure as hell is not anything special.
Im so glad this match is almost over.
Cant take this cowardly fleeing anymore, and only fighting back when numbers are x5 bigger.
- See Veteran Guard and 1 Yak seemingly afk a distance away, ok, so I proceed to gight the guard, then suddenly the same Yak returns to me with 7 others, kill me and spam /laugh.
Yeah. That’s a tragedy. I sure as hell wouldn’t complain if they made male armor I couldn’t wear. And quite frankly, there are more options available for those who prefer more of a knight look.
But then again, the sales of the armor will tell us whether people liked this set or not – if they continue making similar armor or not.
Please, stop using word troll, its childish and quite frankly makes you look bad.
My point is – it’s not correct to rationalize irrational game, different variations should be available for everyone and all tastes. I understand why some might be upset over male/female difference, however the difference doesn’t make it bad.
It’s also wrong to assume that everyone who likes revealing armor is a pervert or someone who objectifies women.
Personally, I dislike JRPG armors, I dislike “chain bikinis”, however I want variations, I’ve been wearing same heavy armor for months now, and I want something new and unique – the new Phalanx set gave me this option.
The whole GW2 is irrational man.
There’s no magic in real life, so there, lets make everyone wield melee weapons.
Rationalizing irrational game is tedious.
-There should be armor options for everyone and all tastes, not just you.
Why do elementalists wear light armor?
I mean, what’s the point? Does it increase you magical power or something?
Why not wear heavy armor instead? More protection!
See how ridiculous it is?
And how come I never hear them chanting their spells?
People are ok with giant purple armored norns with quaggan backpacks but it’s outrageous to give skirt to heavy armor? The hell people?
Broomsticks are ok, and all the othe gimmicks but cleavage is not?
Come on people, it’s a fantasy/disney MMO.
GW2 sadly stopped taking itself seriously long time ago.
I’ll probably use Traveler runes once I get money.
This build is fine if already have frontliners, if you are runing DPS / support from mid or rear. However, it lacks group stability, so even while in the backlines you still have to have another guard to pick up the slack and provide it for your group.
As a frontliner, it lacks armor, lacks health, and lacks mobility. You have zero swiftness generation and zero stability, even self. You will even get owned by necros and hammer warriors in 1v1 and small group encounters.
Renewed focus is also kinda waste because your baseline virtues do not give you anything extra, nor your allies, you are far better off runing a tome.
So, its pretty bad. A mediocre roaming build at best, pretty horrid for organized groups as other guards are necessary to pick up the slack for you.
Yeah, tested it for 2 hours. It was terrible. Going back to Healway.
