Guild Wars 2

People are getting a bit afraid over the RNG issue. I understand , i also think it was a fiasco, and it proves Anet still got a long road before they can do things 100% right in my opinion.

BUT

There are 3 more acts guys, chill a bit , just like we got the book back slot , most likely there will be other skins in the event , even weapon skins (people linked in my guild , no idea where they got the skins).

My point is , dont be afraid you wont get something from halloween , there are more 3 acts , sure they will do something interesting on them.

Well , i already saw a few of the future skins , or at least people said they are future skins of the event they data mined.

To be honest , saying that we wont get skins is unfair , it is too early , there are 3 acts to go, and by looks of the skins i saw … they are amazing.

How we get those? I dont know.

But dont think you wont get skins , just chill and wait more acts.

(This got nothing to do with the RNG fiasco Anet made)

Well , to me GW2 is about skins.

Getting max stats is really easy , now Anet is giving free karma around it will become even faster. Getting pretty items? Not really.

Ask yourself , what is a legendary if not a pretty skin over a normal weapon.

So yeah , vanity items would strike big … really big. But RNG? No , never.

When you open a thread people expect you to add something to the discussion.

Not just repeat the same thing the other 100 threads are saying on the first post.

Well , i will add here my 2 cents … which is more i will ever give Anet again.

It was bad when the chests had a horrible RNG and getting anything was ridiculous.
But you actually managed to make it MUCH worse by then making the same thing again.

Literally , ii felt like they extended their hand to me , just to pull it out on the last second and laugh of me.

My wallet is closed. Might still get items using ingame gold , but that is it.

takatsu.9416:

Just because you didn’t get one doesn’t mean the event sucks and this idea sucks and all the chests sucks

Well , the RNG idea is pretty bad on itself , after it never gonna give money for Anet outside expansions.

But on the event account we are still on act 1, gotta wait till after the end of act 4 to judge it. Saying it is good or bad now is pointless.

Also agree , sure , dont make an infinite space if that is gonna create problems , but at least 4/6 new tabs would be good.

Im ok with that.

Cause i also think Anet looks PATHETIC with a system like that , followed by people that look PATHETIC while they take anything Anet toss at them like it is god sent and great ideas.

So , we all look PATHETIC , i do to you , and you do to me. Maybe mirrors would help us all?

They NEED to be a gamble cause Anet gets money this way.

And a company cares for money first , people happy second.

It is a honesty way is thinking , just not one that interest us much.

There are other MMOs in which chainsaw is an actual equip kind , therefore they have plenty of models.

Still , it looks nice, while i disagree it can even be compared to any legendary … even more the gs.

If this event does not show you that Nexon got more than a “little” say on what Anet can or cannot do , then i dont know what could.

Because good skins = good items. Right.

If you dont think good skin = good items let me give you advice.

Stop playing.

This game is about skins , good items are items with good skins.

Stats? If you think these are important on an item at first you are either blind or new to the game.

If this event does not show you that Nexon got more than a “little” say on what Anet can or cannot do , then i dont know what could.

Honestly people , lesson learned DONT GIVE THEM MONEY.

Thats is it , that is the “voice” they listen to. When the wallets talk , they make silence and listen.

Hopefully , if enough of us teach them anything , christmas will be a better time.

Im glad i got a shoulder from 13 chests right now.

Servers us right for giving Anet money.

Honestly , not gonna give then 1 cent outside the exp packs…

Then again i guess they dont care about my opinion , im not giving them money.

Still gonna say it , RNG was a bad call , could make stuff hard to get because of effort , like the craft items.

Well only people who could bet , but i think not even be 100% sure, is Anet. How can anyone be sure of something that will happen 1 year from now?

I think it is fine the way it is.

There is a problem here very simple , town clothes got no armor kind. That means people could dress like a witch and be a guardian or war, or you suggest from now on town clothes can only be used by certain classes? That to me would be much worse.

Also , im not fond of the idea of tons of witches and mad kings running around all the time.

That being my opinion on this matter , i got both and the extra helmet already , those are very pretty and fun to use.

Got the scythe from the TP, 20g.

Honestly , if you got money to spend , i would convert gems to gold and buy directly , if you dont have money … try to farm some gold fast.

Actually people are raging over the gamble system on the chests … at least until where i saw. Which is a valid complain , which Anet already said will look into.

Other than that , sure , i have great hopes for what they have in store for us, even more for the 28.

Till now im 100% on all achivs open , hope i can keep it up till the end.

I think Anet already said you can craft the weapons later , problem is the materials will be limited since we cant farm them anymore after the event.

Honestly , the greatsword and staff are both awesome , and im happy with just that.

Can trasmute anytime.

Then again this is just my opinion.

Most likely they will add more lvls , that is how you explore a set area.

Without raising the lvl cap people will find the new , tunnel + plinx so to say , and begin to farm it , leaving the other areas empty much faster.

Also , it does not matter much , can always use stone to keep the look on the new stats , which i believe Anet would want us to do so we spend the stones.

Quite easy to get really.

Then again it could be because im in JQ , and my LA is always overflow. I just need to reset it , and new pumpkins appear.

I think that is quite wrong.

Skins should be hard to get because of effort , everyone could have it , but only if they really put enough into the game.

Sure , luck could be a factor , someone could be lucky and get it for free in one split of second , while others still work for it , but creating only the luck path?

That is a really , really terrible idea.

Yeah , you feel exactly like me OP. Best skin is that staff for sure.

Still … making one is at best a very long … long term plan , if i can even get enough material halloween only.

Honestly , i believe this thread was simple made to stand a point, i think OP knows quite well what he must do.

Either way , spent some money on TP and buy the skin , less then 30g.

Im glad it seems this will be fixed.

Honestly , one thing i was trying to do is convince my friends who now prefer a more casual approach to play this game.

Right now , when someone asks me all i answer is that this game is the number 1 enemy of any casual.

Well some will be mad , some will be happy.

I already did this part of the event (the 4 days thing) , now is back to grind , i dont personally care about the halloween events , i would rather farm to get the skins at some point later on, since Anet went full money making machine.

On a side note , nope , for sure im not giving them one dollar out of the expansions if they keep the luck system up.

You listed a LOT of BAD ideas in one big go there in my opinion mate … so many.

Only thing i agree , out of your whole post is that they should stop the free transfers.

I dont see the problem , as long as Arena gets NOTHING plus the present SPvP gives.

If the rewards are EXACTLY the same , then it is fine , pick the one you like the most and go for it.

What i hated about WoW was how the arena players felt especial and gear other PvP stuff came from it.

Signed.

Mounts would be a fine addition to the game , i actually wonder why they are not in there yet.

They dont even need to give a speed buff, mounts could be simply cosmetic and a matter of pride , which runs at player speed.

Signed.

Been on both sides , went full PvP on some MMOs and in GW2 im going full PvE (for now) , and honestly , both sides do not match.

Some player actually despise the other side and get mad every single time nerfs are applied due to it, while they let pass when the reason is their side fault.

Better thing to do is separate both sides , and before someone come to say i want PvE to easy , cause it seems this is what is going on this thread , this is not what im saying.

Stop and think , balancing in PvP should not be what is making PvE easy or hard , it should be PvE balance, it is ridiculous to depend on PvP to balance PvE.

Honestly , I see their names first , not their color.

maybe im half blind or my monitor is too small , but takes me a while to actually notice the enemies color , all i know is , that is a target and it should be dead.

Problems apart , your solution would make it much worse.

So one big no to this!

Eles need fixes , but this is not it.

If they give a VERY BIG warning saying that the player cant join because X player got them blocked then i think it would be passable, because then people could decide to actually kick the blocker and invite the person anyway.

Also , you did not say to it work like this , but is case it did it would also be a problem , if both are in the group already at the moment of the block , then it should only block chat , not kick the other party member without a vote.

Honestly , i still got 0 on my block list … maybe is cause i dont use map chat anymore.

Never glory , simply because WvW is not SPvP, and it would be really stupid to join both , but i agree they should be measured on something you get by doing WvW a lot , like the tokens (which also prove little , i mean i spam AoE on my ele and get many without learning anything , still better than gold i guess).

Im one of the few who actually love medium armor i think , but i got only 3 lvls 80 , 1 heavy and 2 light …

Sure i would love to see this implemented , but might never be because of PvP and stuff like that.

Well , it is a stat , so i think it makes sense it should get a display like the others.

Well , pretty much every single class got problems right now , rangers are no star and will be addressed like everybody else , little by little.

Also , while i agree with some of the stuff you said , parts of it were simple things that are not broken , but do not work the way you want them to work, which does not mean they will ever be “fixed”.

Snoring Sleepwalker.9073:

What is so horrible about a tax ?

Well you said it yourself did you not?

People are already in guilds , imagine this system is implemented now , how much in fight/grief would this bring? This could actually break entire guilds. Since tons of people could simple say they want 0 tax , while others say there should be some.

A donating system is much better , since it makes an easy way for anyone who wants to contribute to the guild.

Like i said i know my guild leader and she would not do such a thing even if they implemented it. Still for other guilds i think this would be pretty bad.

Honestly i found your post a bit confusing. But i will consider about how i understood it.

Most likely , will never happen , simple because Anet said they wanted every race to be able to do anything.

Reason why we see some … strange combinations lore wise of race + class.

Personally i think it would create more problems than solve , even if not in SPvP , those classes would still ask for more balancing , even more actually since they are race specific, and people would go mad.

That is a great idea!

And if it does not include change the normal gear should be viable , still i agree with you that it will take a very long time to see this implemented.

You know … while it is not yet out, i remm people who data mined this already.

Nudal.5310:

Why not just change the name of the Guild Leader rank to “Owner” and make a new rank called “Guild Leader” with full powers.

Pretty much this?

My guild got 500 players atm (well +- , usually we kick 20 or so inactives when we reach 500 to open + space)

It got one “leader” and one “sub-leader” , both got “full” powers.

Well , im not one to complain about immersion , but im quite sure others will complain about this.

To me , this seem like a good idea , since it would create more variety , and more variety is usually good.

While i agree that this would be much better, i add a question:

Then what would be the purpose of town clothes?

Well that would be a nice change , but honestly , by the time you can afford the t3 set , getting an exo gear for stats wont be a problem at all.

Taikanaru.5746:

Uhm… If you moved the human’s greatsword to be as low as the asura’s, it would impale the ground…

I know , i mean the asura one is misplaced.

I actually think the asura one is impaling the ground, or at least must be really close.

Honestly , to me it is fine the way it is.

It is so fast/easy to change it … you guys are being really lazy.

I mean , sure , if we had to come and go to town every 5 mins , then ok , this would be even something to consider. But honestly , i cant bet most of the time that is not the case.
