What makes it egregious is none of the other race’s “rebel” groups are treated like this – we don’t drag the Inquest from their beds or murder the Sons of Svanir in that cave in Hoelbrak.
That is not what happens in Ebonhawke either, so you can relax.

It would be too good money if they have less health.
You mean the gold vs. time spent would be on par with other dungeons? Yeah, I can see why we can’t have that!
Do you even lift, bro?
I also don’t think Norn had a well developed writing system either. One of the discussions in Hoelbrak is about recording legends into books, and whether or not that’d be disrespectful.
So;
Charr – no written language.
Norn – probably not either.
Sylvari – were they even around yet?
Asura – pride themselves on having the most complicated language possible.Human worked out for everyone. Simple and easy.
Norns probably have some form of runes like the vikings of old. However, they seem to have more of an oral tradition, for sure.

Did Anet have to make them so big compared to humans? It’s hard to understand humans being an actual threat to charr physically. Same goes with norns and humans…
Both norns and charr are a little too big compared to the other races imo.
You realize that Norns are essentially giants, right?
Do you even lift, bro?
But whatever the reason, I’m certain that once they become corrupted by Jormag’s power and become Icebrood, a Son of Svanir’s goals align with that of his Master, and their previous beliefs cease to matter.
I’m not too sure about that. Whenever you interact with the Sons in charge, who have become Icebrood, like the three end bosses in Honour of The Waves, they still spout the Sons propaganda. They seem to still cling to the belief that Jormag is Dragon, the ultimate Spirit of the Wild.
But perhaps they were given more of a free will than ordinary Icebrood in order to allowed them to recruit more Norns, who knows.

That’s not just Sunrise. Greatswords of all sorts tend to slice the… buttocks.. of female Norns when carried on the back like that.

How on could that possible work? Were proto-Asurans created with the scientific know-how and equipment to do so?
It makes no sense, and to be honest, it is pretty stupid.
Do you even lift, bro?
Minor problem? Hardly. At times it is even game-breaking.
Hordes of Elementalists (they really are the flavour of the month in WvW) coming to defend the keep your attacking. You can’t stop them entering and they can harass you without fear of reprisal as long as they are within running distance to the gate portal.
It really shouldn’t allow you to enter the portals. No other class can pull this cheesy move off. It is imbalanced.

The answer should be obvious. I’ve stated it multiple times.

Read the text on the Medium chestpiece.

You are searching for Separatist hide-outs and they attack you first. You do not drag anyone out and attack them unprovoked.

Its good because the dungeon was too easy. I wish every dungeon would be as hard as arah path 1 or 4.
/facedesk
It is still a snooze-fest like no other dungeon in the game. They just changed stuff around for the worse.

The same problem also applies to the Heightened Focus Trait for Warriors. That too has persisted since launch (or even beta).

Those are different in that they are not downed state abilities.

The drop rate of the Badges in “actual” WvW participation is laughably bad. They should either make them a guaranteed drop for killing players or taking objectives. Or just go all the way and rename them Badges of_Jumping_!

Should be purchased with badges of honor, and remove badges of honor from those JP in wvw. So you actually have to be a dedicated participant in WvW to, dare I say, earn your right as a commander.
That’s kind of a lame suggestion for people who don’t care about WvW but want legendary weapons.
Agreed. Badges of “Jumping” don’t drop regularily enough in WvW to justify removing them from the JPs.
Do you even lift, bro?
The people complaining about this the most are probably the people
who can pull people off walls (thief and mesmer). If you want to stop
vapor form from going through portals, how about prevent pull downs
if we are trying to level the playing field for all classes.
Nope, sorry to mess up your stereotyping but I’m a Warrior and I made the thread.

There is however the discussion of whether or not the Elder Dragons are evil. To me, in order to be evil there must be the notion of good. I don’t think the Elder Dragons know good nor evil. They simply act as Elder Dragons do, with no bias towards our morals.
Do you even lift, bro?
Personally I see nothing wrong in smashing and slashing at an Elder Dragon with our dinky little weapons. In Hoelbrak there is a pretty good piece of evidence that they can be harmed (and probably killed) that way.
You just gotta hit really, really hard!
Do you even lift, bro?
I disagree. Norns as a whole are pretty kitten peaceful. Their civilization is relatively peaceful compared to the rest. The majority of Norns are just a bunch of hunters and gatherers.
You can’t compare the desire for individual Norns to forge their legend to the organized and large-scale warfare of the Human and Charr civilizations; they thrive on war, conquering lands and stuff. Norns don’t do that… currently. There are no Norn Legions, there is no Norn equivalent of the Seraph or any of the military organizations of the other races. There is just a very limited and localized force (have you ever seen a Wolfborn outside of Hoelbrak?) of peacekeepers like the Wolfborn.

Of course Zhaitan is undead: his body is made up of the dead corpses of lesser dragons!
How much more undead can you get?
The answer is “none”
I’d also be willing to bet a pretty penny on the fact that Jormag consists largely out of his trademark corrupted ice. As scales covering his body at the very least, but I think a lot more personally.

It shouldn’t have been purchasable by gold in the first place. So many stupid people buying it without a clue how WvW works or simply because they had more gold than brains and wanted a flash symbol.
Should’ve cost Badges of Honour instead.

Please people cry more about a downed skill…1 ele changes the entire course of battle obviously.
I’ve never seen more crying about a stupid skill than this 1…it’s really pathetic…learn to counter it like someone who pvps regularly…it’s the simplest easiest thing to stop a ele from getting back in after it but apparently nobody understands how.
It is not one Elementalist. By my count they are the most popular class (perhaps tied with Thieves…) in WvW. You always face tons of them, and when they are all in essence immortal when defending a keep… it is no fun. Something has to be done to balance the down states across the classes really. Which is why I jokingly said “Either remove Vapour Form or give it to all the classes.”
I think I should’ve said “Either fix it or give it to all the other classes”
Do you even lift, bro?
(edited by Oglaf.1074)
Either remove it in WvW
how is this not suggesting to remove it?
Oh that. I’m rarely serious in my opening posts. It was merely an over-the-top and provocative opening post to get he discussion going by riling everyone up a bit.
Elementalists need the ability, especially in dungeons if they get caught by a stray attack or something. I don’t really want it removed, of course. Just that in WvW it is really overpowered due to the ability to flee into keeps. Something has to change.

Seems to me that Zhaitan is more of a malevolent entity rather than a physical being; it simply possessed a few dead dragons and made a makeshift body by merging them together.
Y’know, sorta like Sauron.

Male Norn heads look hilariously awful without a big bushy beard covering up their almost spherical faces.
I couldn’t agree more.

How would Zhaitan survive?
Simple.
He wasn’t alive to begin with.
I can’t believe the Pact didn’t even send someone down to go look and see if he was still squirming.

I can think of a few just on top of my head, in addition to AC’s Burrows:
CoE Subject Alpha (breaking friends out of his crystals)
HoTW Fimbul (breaking him out of his ice block to prevent him healing)
HoTW Ginva the Butcher (breaking his Totems)
Ice Elemental boss in Svanir Fractal is a “structure”
And so on.

Since you don’t want a guardian to maintenance retaliation all the time (GS nerf). What’s with the ability of a warrior to keep fury up all the time?
How is this a suggestion? It is just a bad whine.
Do you even lift, bro?
You also forget all the stuff that is immune to Bleeds(and other Conditions) that exists out there. For example, bringing a Condition-speced anything gimps your group horribly in AC Exploration Path 3 due to all the Graveling Burrows you have to knock out on that path.
When I was a newbie I gave it a go with my Scepter-wielding Necromancer. That was not fun. Not fun at all.

hmm oh sorry, i was stuck in my head with your first post. because you suggested to remove it. what would you replace it with than?
Nobody has suggested to remove it.
Nobody has suggested to replace it.
I’m sure Ele’s would take Stealth and give up mist form.
Or better yet make all classes exactly the same, morons.
I’m pretty sure most of the other classes would give up their left arm and a leg for Vapour Form. So. Yeah…

How could there possible be playable dwarves when they can’t procreate?
Procreation is not a requirement for a playable race, me tinks.
Of course it is. You have to have an in-game explanation for your character’s existence after all. Mr. and Ms. Norn had sex and had my Norn character. How would you explain the creation of your dwarf? You can’t just have the population of this dying and finite race of beings just explode.

if you get 100% hp before effect ends you dont die according to wiki,
I’ve never been able to test that either. Not even with our most powerful heal, Adrenal Surge, can’t we realistically get full Health due to being still locked in combat.
also every1 sais how much they dont like an ele to have it but no1 can seem to think of a solution.
Really? It has been brought up multiple times in this thread that disabling the ability to use the portals when in Vapour Form would solve the problem.
Do you even lift, bro?
does the warrior skill vengeance allow them to port ?
I think so.
I’ve never lived long enough to activate it and try it out.
Unlike Vapour Form, you have to wait for Vengeance to charge up before using it, which means you’re dead before you can use it.
Regardless, when Vengeance ends you die. When Vapour Form ends, you get downed again and can Bandage yourself.
Considering those two factors, you can’t compare Vengeance to Vapour Form.

They are far more effective in PvP than in PvE due to bosses having Defiant which renders it somewhat useless.

And the auto-attack from Axe does far more damage than the whirl ever would. It is rarely worth using at all. With a little maneuvering you can hit a lot of targets with the auto-attack as well.

how come you dont want to stop the thief class using stealth near towers ?
If they are alive, I don’t see why not? I’m pretty sure their downed teleport thingy can’t go through the portals like Mist Form.
But I am not sure.
Thief downed teleport cannot get trough the gate portal
Good, good. Neither should Vapour Form, really.

I feel for the guy who wants to craft Mjolnir. That takes 350 total.
“We don’t want players to feel like they have to grind.”

So. Freaking. Badly.
But 350 Charged Lodestones?

As far as I know, Norns aren’t involved in any large scale conflicts like the Humans (Anti-treaty rebels and Centaurs) or the Charr (civil war against the Flame Legion). Even the Sylvari are actively working against the Nightmare Court. One could call it a war, I suppose.
Asura and Norn really are more peaceful, mainly because they are not in an all-out war against their enemy faction: Asura are somewhat tolerant towards the Inquest and the Norn are somewhat accepting of the Sons’ right to worship Jormag as Dragon.
Do you even lift, bro?
also an ele has less chance to get to a tower without being ganked, my warrior can usually run in every time due to more hp/armor
lolno
A warrior gets downed and he is bummed. The Warrior downed skillset is trash. An Elementalist can actually take advantage of getting downed in order to run into the keep.
