Option to swap #1-5 skill slot order

in Suggestions

Oliver.4017

hmm. So you want you skill buttons different for each weapon? Yea, i guess it could be troublesome. I play a thief mostly and I never do a weapon switch. I have my keys bound as follow:
e=5
c=6
v=7
r=8
x=9
q=0

The rest of the keys are still easy to reach so I don’t have any reasons to change them. Same thing with all my other classes. They are all so close together, I don’t have a need to shortcut my five skill to my toaster or my 3 skill to my cat. I just move my finger hardly at all and I hit the skill I need. Its an idea. I found this shortcut quite useful, you even might want to give it a try. You might like it. But back to the weapon skill selecting. I don’t know. It wouldn’t affect me so sure. XD

You could shortcut those keys to other numbers to suit your play. like make 3 your shortcut for the 2 skill and 2 the shortcut for the 3 skill…etc. I think switching it up would not make much of a difference in game play. For example, I don’t even use my 1-0 skills with numbers but I have them bound to keyboard keys that surround my “wasd” movement keys so I don’t have to move my hand across the key board to hit my elite. I know where you are coming from, but these are my reasonings against. I’m not shooting your idea down, just giving you some ideas.

Allow normal slot skills in the elite slot

The only thing I want done with the skills is have more weapon skill choices. Like you select your 1 skill from a few others. Repeated on 2-5. Normal skill son Elites? Seems like an oxymoron, not to mention the elite skill can be really good if used correctly. If you do that you would make some classes very powerful.

There are some more but these are some of the few things i can think of. Also, I liked the Guild Halls in Gw

Weapon Type: Whip

The whip is already a held item. Like when u pick up a tree branch. This is seen in the Sylvari personal story line in where you have a whip-like weapon (its called a vine i think but who cares XD). So it’s not a weapon like a sword or mace or whatever, its just a held item. But i think the concept is already there. Also I agree, I want land spears, or better yet some more weapons in general. Like a LEGIT scythe. Not a scythe skin, but a scythe. Just some ideas

Kasmeer’s armor also looks very sunspear-like, which could mean she is part of the Mordant Crescent, which would explain why Anet is putting the “hippo mini” and the “lion mini” etc, on the Black Lions. Those are Elonian animals. It could hint at that, but all in all this is all theory until Anet releases more. I also kind of like the idea of her being in the Mordant Crescent. Also the armor on the first armor link, second from the left. That looks almost exactly like the vigil armor…

Thief underwater skills

in Suggestions

Posted by: Oliver.4017

Oliver.4017

Thief can be Over Powered if you use spear. The 3 skill paired with signet of malice, is a block and then huge heal. Also, the five skill paired with Infiltrators Signet is a good combo, because u would be gaining initiative and constantly evading. You can switch between these two methods, but overall, I feel thief has some of the best underwater skills. At least, I haven’t had too many underwater problems myself. If you need some help with thief, I can try and help. You can contact me.

Idea Regarding Race change

in Suggestions

Posted by: Oliver.4017

Oliver.4017

I hate to be a buzz kill, but I don’t think a race change is possible. There is no easy solution to fix the race changing. Even if you were level 80 and already did your story line, it would have to totally delete all your personal story in you hero menu and replace it with a fake one. One that you didn’t do. And in total, that just doesn’t make sense. Not only does it affect your story but it also affects your world, because certain NPC’s react/say things depending on the race you are. I think it is more complicated than it is worth. Now with the kits that changed your appearance, that was easy, because it didn’t mess with the game story wise, or even affect NPC dialogue. That being said, It would be pretty cool to see such a thing implemented. I also think another reason they don’t want to alter story too much is Guild Wars itself is heavily story based (One of the many reasons I love it). Anyways, thanks for letting me voice my opinion. If Anet can implement it, that’s pretty cool. If not, I won’t mind.

Titles Should Have an Effect

Every one uses their titles differently. I use mine on occasion, but I just wish that I actually go something out of all the hard work I have put in. No matter how small, I just feel like something should be given. Maybe I’m just asking too much. I’m sorry. I just thought it was a cool idea, whether it could be implemented or not, that doesn’t bother me. If it can, WOO! If not, I’m not going to lose sleep over it. This is a suggestion, lol. No harm or foul, giving a suggestion. In my opinion, I feel it can be done well, if not better, than gw1.

I think it is simply, its not our decision. “Do It To It” is first off a clearly, and obviously, an offensive name. Do you honestly think people will believe that you were meaning the innocent “DO IT or else” meaning? If so, why did you add the “To It” part? People sometimes, just need to think. There are other people on than just ONE culture anyways, so if its insulting in one culture, then that’s enough reason not to have it. This is a community based game, so in reality we should be thinking about our community first. And what is the reason behind putting inappropriate or offensive names on your characters unless you WANT to get them ban. So when your character does get banned for an inappropriate name, why complain? Congratulations, you achieved what you clearly wanted. There are thousands of people who can pick a name that is appropriate and non-offensive, so why can’t you? (Just re-read this and this can be taken as a little mean, and I don’t mean it. Just making a point. Sorry >.< I love all of you!)

Agreed. With all this content coming out, there is a lot to do. For example: New content/update on May 28th. They seems to be doing the content on a biweekly bases, one update per two weeks. So fairly fast. Don’t miss it.

There are like two good dagger skins. The rest look fairly ugly, or don’t even look like daggers at all. Krytan dagger and maaayybe ghastly dagger look good. I have a thief too, and I am still looking for a half decent dagger. I agree with OP, we need more skins, for ALL weapons (except Great Sword)… lol. Either way, good luck with your search.

Titles Should Have an Effect

I don’t mean anything significant or even too noticeable, but they could give some PvE bonuses. I think +500 is way too much either way. In Gw, they did it very well with giving you a boost for being in an area, doing extra damage against specific creatures, etc. I’m not looking for something that will make people without the title feel insignificant or at a disadvantage, but the title seems pretty silly just having it as just a couple words under your name. What’s the real point? Visuals would be good as charleon freeze said, and as I said before, this is just a thought. I just think there is a way to implement this without putting others at an unfair disadvantage.

I want the Title system that was available in gw1, where if you had a title equipped you would get a specific boost. I thought that was cool. It gave people a reason to go for the title, and made getting the title worth it (other than bragging rights). It’s just an idea.

I suggest you log in and try it if you don’t like it, that’s okay. No harm done. I also suggest that you come back during the big Living Story events like F/F and SoS, etc. Those are known to be fun, and would be totally worth it to get on, do the achievements then log off. The decision is yours. Also to quell your boredom, play with friends. This game is not fun unless you are in a party. Just go to some random dude and invite them to party and if they ask just say: “I’m bored yo.” I try to get people to like this game by inviting them to my party and helping them out. There is endless amount of things you can do in this game, we just narrow what we can do down so we are left with doing hardly anything. Either way, have fun, hope to see you in game.

Moto - most unfeminine asura female

Moto is male with a female name.

I believe the name is a reference to Shigeru Miyamoto, as he controls the box that enters you in to the retro 8-bit themed jumping puzzle.

It is. Hence “Princess Miya” and “Moto” … Miyamoto… I know what you are all thinking: “By the ETERNAL ALCHEMY!”

I think the commander title should be more PvP/WvW based. Anybody with 100 gold can buy a commander title, but that doesn’t make them a commander at WvW, it makes them either a) a commander at gold hoarding or b) a commander at buying a lot of gold. Being a commander takes leadership skill and we know that the best leaders are not the ones who can spend the most money. I agree with the OP that we should make the Commander title badge based and not gold, otherwise we detract from what the Commander title is supposed to be… a Commander.
