Iris Ng.9845:

Skip through a floor, a wall, a death trap (CoE lazer gap).

you mean you actually still know any spot where you can actually glitch through a floor/wall with teleport??

havent been able to reproduce any teleportglitch since last teleport change

GummiBear.2756:

together with other shadowsteps and some swiftness allows to to be by FAR the fastest class to get around

dont exaggerate
Warrior can basically be just as fast on the long run
(only if there are hills where the warrior would have to run around while the thief can port up thief is clearly faster)
but apart from warrior i dont think there is a class that can keep up with thief
and thief has ofc better in combat mobility than warrior

but yes infiltrators arrow gives you the possibility to be faster/skip walking around stuff etc

you will probably not be the best at this game if you try to play it on controller
(you wont be able to compete at PvP at least and its not optimal for PvE either…)

if you just play casually and dont feel the need to be perfect you can try ofc i guess
but i wouldnt recommend using a controller for this game

It also depends what class you use ofc ^^
teleports are probably impossible to aim properly with controller for example and in general placing AoE skills will be harder

check out this topic
there are quite a few links inside it concerning (xbox-) controller support

also this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XN3z5LUfwf4

Necromancer has 25% Signet

mesmer will get permanent swiftness with signet as announced

guardian has none yes but can at least keep permanent swiftness up with Retreat+Save Yourselves+Staff and has Greatsword Leap and Sword Teleport

i hope i didnt ruin any possible future reward by taking this item xDD

i am keeping it super safe in my bank now

Tom.6478:

Since this is such a hot topic, ArenaNet needs to do a better job keeping us informed.

that pun

Hamfast.8719:

Stuff that would work well as Outfits, but not armor:

Togas!
Swimsuits!
Formal wear!

…you know – party clothing! They can and (preferably) should be culturally different.

THESE are the sorts of things Outfits should be used for.

ok i agree

but all outfits that could be real armorsets should be real armorsets (or better: appear as real armorsets too)

i dont want to see Mad King Thorn Outfit as Armor ofc … such pure fun outfits and pure costume brawl outfits should stay outfits ofc

Legerdemain.1365:

• (A bit far-fetched, seeing how it’s similar to what we’re losing) Forget the stat-boost to equipment/base values, allowing players to allocate the difference in stats lost from this change themselves (i.e. allow a system similar to the current trait system we have to exist, but it only applies to stat bonuses, offering potential boosts up to what we’re losing, only with the ability to spread points more diversely due to traits not being tied in with them)

i think this would be by far the best solution

BigBadBoy.5408:

Lorgus.6148:

Buy a “Great lucky ram lantern” on TP for like 8g, it’s level 80 exotic with selectable stats. Cheers!

Thanks!

just craft the lvl 78 backpiece

like the others already said it has better stats even with only lvl 65 rare jewel added

and it is super cheap

alwinp.2791:

i guess i must be afk a lot because i have about 1600 hours logged onto my account and i’m not even close to 200% mf.

Thats verry impressive I have to say

[…] It took me about 300k ToT bags until I got my Mini Gwynefyrrd

ooooh the irony
you had so much bad luck with getting gwynefyrrd but you get 4million luck xD
Anet sure knows how to troll

would MUCH rather have some 4th set of cultural ARMOR

i mean culturual armor is one of the few where it is 100% SURE it looks good on each race

and having a few more armorpieces to mix and match on charr for example that were designed for charr would be very nice

Miss Lana.5276:

Orangensaft.7139:

would make the lvl 20 scrolls useful actually

i could create 10x a new char and get 200 skillpoints

You only get 8 skill points per level 20 scroll. They changed that with the NPE.

The most useful thing for them is key farming. That’s the only thing I use them for.

…
NPE kittened too many things up

would make the lvl 20 scrolls useful actually

i could create 10x a new char and get 200 skillpoints

i love exploraiton too
i tried to explore everything beyond the normal map borders, glitched under every map voidjumped in every map to see every spot possible

but i dont get why exploration and meta builds dont work together in your world? xD

thats the whole point of the armor vs outfit discussion topics

for pure exploration warrior is the most convenient i would say

very easy access to movement skills (greatsword + sword/warhorn)
easy permanent swiftness (warhorn + Signet of Rage elite)

when full zerk you just cut through everything in open world

and you can skip and be faster at many spots by using sword leap skill!

Elementalist would be second choice
massive AOE dmg and still quite some movement skills (at least if you switch weapons when out of combat) + teleport skill

“uh uh”

congrats Ti

i vote prosper for best intonation!

as long as you dont have screenshots that show him flying in the air with the hack its no proof…

that spot on your screenshot can be reached easily by everyone with a few jumps

i think that is a nice idea
if anet plans to rebuild LA

i have tons of mithril ore sitting in my bank
and still a nice amount of elder wood too

yes ..why dont they just release
chest+leg pieces in one (like cof light chest piece armor)
and release helmets, gloves, shoulders and boots as single armor pieces

problem solved

dont touch it!

“Note: This message was sent by another player. It was not sent by the Guild Wars 2 Team.”

makes it obvious its a scam
report and delete

remove the link in your post too maybe…
not that someone clicks on it^^

and on your question
yes i have encountered the exact same message
the scammers use that one pretty often…

Xiahou Mao.9701:

Orangensaft.7139:

3) and why wouldnt you be able to mix and match it??
there definitly are other light armorpieces who can fit with single balthazar pieces

The armour seams for the different armour types are set at different places. Medium armour has very short chest pieces, for example, they only come down to around a character’s belly button. This is usually hidden by the ‘trenchcoat’ part of most pieces, but when you look at a piece that lacks such a coat, such as the Glorious Armour, it’s very noticeable.

So it just wouldn’t work out to make the same skin for all three armour types. This is why the only ‘universal’ skins they’ve released so far are shoulders, helmets, gloves and boots, which all can avoid that ‘how long the pants/tunic are’ issue that varies from armour to armour.

eehm
and how is that ANY problem???

they can just do balthazar armor like cof light armor chest piece

so the chest piece of baltazar outfit would hide leg armor and serve as chest and leg armorpiece in one

we cant mix chest and legs then but we still have
the helmet, gloves, shoulders, boots and chest+leg in one for mix and matching

which would still be suuuuper awesome!

and 1000000x better than not being able to mix and match AT ALL!

if making these dyeable is possible then i would love to see it ofc

We are getting free armour sets now, so why complain about them selling outfits?

I’m not?

Sorry if it came out that way, I didn’t mean to sound like you were whining.

All I’m trying to say is that there are people, like me, that love outfits.

But when they are making BOTH armour sets and outfits, what is the problem then?

the problem atm is that they are NOT making these outfits as armorsets too
and thats what we want to change

Sorry, but if there is a market for outfits, they will sell it.

I enjoy outfits.

yes and thats totally fine

like i said before
i just want BOTH: outfits AND armorset versions of these outfits

nobody wants to get rid of outfits and i can understand why some people like outfits better

but i dont see a reason not to work on these outfits again to turn them into real armorset versions and sell these armorsets on the gemshop again for all the other players who love to mix and match

Olvendred.3027:

Marth Reynolds.8257:

Or better yet, if you buy the outfit you unlock both the outfit and armor skins it’s composed off.

I really don’t see why there’s a difference between these to begin with tbh.
Surely you’d get more sales if you catered to both options, instead of restricting it’s use for seemingly no good reason?

Outfits aren’t composed of armour skins. An outfit is a single full-body skin. Armour skins are broken into pieces along specific lines, which are not the same for every armour weight. It’s a lot, lot easier (and, it seems, more profitable) for Anet to make outfits than a much smaller number of armour skins.

And, in response to the thing about ‘it doesn’t matter if they clip, let everyone work it out for themselves’… people will care. There are so many complaints about the relatively minimal clipping already in game – introducing new items that flagrantly clip to a huge extent is going to cause even more, and worse, it would make Anet look really bad. Like they don’t care about quality at all… which would be true, if they did it.

People are willing to pay more for real armorsets

and some would buy the outfit and the armorset and i think it would definitly be worth it to invest some more work in the already existing skins to separate them into 6 pieces and sell it as armorset again

and ofc people care about clipping
but not being able to mix and match at all is 10000000x worse than having clipping issues but still being able to search for the good combinations

introducing NO new armor to prevent clipping is the worst possible solution seriously…

because we like the outfit designs but feel like it is wasted awesome design if it cant be mixed and matched!

why not both?
i agree with you on this!

everyone happy then
and more profit for anet

They can live up to it, if they couldn’t, Balthazar wouldn’t be so good then.
…and seriously people, stop it with whining about outfits, it’s really getting annoying. Some don’t like outfits, some (including me) love them.

lol chill, nobody is “whining” about it. Im glad you like them, so do I, but think about it, if they were armor then you would still be able to use them as a full set (outfit as it currently stands) and as matching armors (for the rest of us), and everybody is happy

On another note; Im waiting for the Lyssa armor now

You do realize, if they were armors, it would look different depending on what you are. My main is mesmer. If they make it so light Balthazar looks like heavy, it will have nothing to mix with since all light armors are dresses, same goes for medium armors. If they made it so that they all look different depending on your armor, many will be sad to see another dress for light.. in that case, it’s nice to have outfits so you get to use something different that is not usually made for your class.

ehm….

1) you could just use complete balthazar light outfit and it looks exactly the same as outfit

2) also we have no problem if it comes out as outfit we just want it as armor TOO

3) and why wouldnt you be able to mix and match it??
there definitly are other light armorpieces who can fit with single balthazar pieces

+1 if it was actually an armor skin :/

or if they released it as outfit AND armor …
(i would pay 10x more for the armor to make the extra work worth it for anet)

I was actually flying around Drytop

soooo high up in the sky to explore the desert like a real adventurer

Panda.1967:

Tigaseye.2047:

They both have different and equally valid roles.

Outfits are far more useful if you’re levelling, whereas you can mix and match parts of the armour sets with other pieces, so they’re more flexible.

I think, if they got rid of outfits, they would have to also make transmutation free while levelling, or something; as it is cost prohibitive to transmute everything, every few levels.

In all honesty, all Armor sets that are bought from the gem store SHOULD be free to transmute. I mean, we’re paying $10 for the armor set. We should not have to pay for more transmutation charges later on should we upgrade our armor or change to a different stat set.

and how are the people who design and develop the armors are paid then??

and there are many ways of getting transmutation charges so you dont even have to pay necessarily…

what armorclass do you need masks for?

Just a flesh wound.3589:

^^ 2012 video, but still funny.

The airplane bug.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CunHb3TJsg

hahah
this is so freaking hilarious xDD

i want that as a real emote NOW

yes i know
Video of Dulfy was not yet uploaded when i wanted to check how the finisher looks like
now it is uploaded though:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0rbwLoCeko

Would still be nice to be actually able to preview these missing finishers ingame

Anet brings in the option to preview finishers but disables it for all the new finishers they put in the gemshop….

genius…

Chickenado finisher was not possible to preview
Skritt Scavenger finisher now is not possible to preview

Anet please… why do you put the preview option in game if you dont let us preview the finishers that we are interested in then?

lightson.2310:

Too be fair i don’t see what the fuss is all about.

On SFR with practically every map queued during prime time and on most days, and the same for Deso its not like you are missing anyone or losing out on numbers.

And if they wan’t to kill farm who actually cares? Its not hacking, game breaking, not affecting the TP, Nor is it ruining the gaming experience of others (too my knowledge) the most AP they get is like 10 (not 100% sure on real AP), and a title if they farmed it enough, and they can’t farm WXP because you don’t give WXP for a certain amount of time after you died, and lets be honest do people still care about their WvW rank?

If you don’t like that kill farm, and this is just a suggestion, don’t go to OS then! They won’t gank you if you want to go to the arena or to do the JP., cos they’re all too busy fighting in the mosh pit .

they can farm quite a nice amount of wxp actually considering that it is just a side effect of the kills+loot farm

you get
tons of Drops of Liquid WXP and Thimbles of Liquid WXP…
+ TONS of levelups (skillpoints are worth something too)
+ tons of Heavy Loot Bags
+ tons of greens/blues which salvage for a not bad amount of linen too
+ many rares too

probably 20g/hour + wxp + titleprogress

oh… and you better remove that “WvW Kills – 140k” from your Signature because its meaningless by now^^
people can farm it in a week without any knowledge of real WvW now

i love the idea of transforming every other player in WvW into a yak

in addition

Arenanet should get their whole staff and do Arenanet raid with which they jump from matchup to matchup and easily steamroll everything while having invulnerable dev buff

would be sooooooooooo funny

for PvE all enemies could look like giants… xDD
gaint slayer is the pve equivalent of yakslayer in wvw (even though its still easier than yak slayer)

Avador.8934:

I think it won’t be any weapon that ele can conjure (axe, shortbow, hammer, greatsword, shield) because it will be confusing. The sword makes the most sense, because ele is the only class wich doesn’t have melee weapon. Engineer neither, but he will have melee hammer.

ele daggers are pretty much melee weapons…
even though some skills have a bit bigger range than normal melee it is still a melee weapon i would say

so this means if you want to craft one of the new legendaries twice you cant?

because you cant only make the precursor once and precursors that others found are not tradeable?

and mystic toilet is no option ofc

or will only the crafted new precursors be not tradeable
but normally dropped new precursors will be tradeable?

Astralporing.1957:

Nutjob.9021:

Buying bank slots = buying gems.
Buying gems = giving ANet real life money (for some people anyhow)

This is why your request will not happen.

It would have some sense… if only i had any more bank tabs to buy.

this xD

i wish i could buy more inventory slots too
like 2 more would be perfect
(i only need it for my main with all the fun items and consumables but it would be really nice for that 1 character at least)

Foxfire
Doubloons
Blade Shards

to Material Storage

Geodes
Bandit Crest

to Account-Wallet pls!

Monkey Fritz.9052:

Orangensaft.7139:

that stone would have to be like.. at least 10.000 gems for being infinite use….
(probably more)

2k gems … anet would never do that xD

but i would love to have one…

and had no problem with paying that much because
it is definitly worth it for anyone who has a sense of fashion and more than 1 character….
and for people who dont just buy outfits but create nice mix and match looks instead…

2000 gems is already $25 dollars…. and you think that isn’t expensive enough…. You are the reason pay to win games with $60 mounts exist.

you dont know what pay to win is dude…

anyone who uses just 1 transmuation per day and plans on playing the game still longer than 2 months would make big profit with that infinite use item for 2k gems

i would happily buy it instantly for 2k gems

and i guess everyone who is able to calculate would it instantly for 2k gems if he uses 1 transmuation per day or more

and no i would not buy $60 mounts

and considering that after just 75 transmutation you would have spent more gems with the current transmutation charge offer in the gemshop
2k seems really little amount

if you play enough pvp ofc you have barely a problem with transmutation charges because of the reward tracks

but if you like to use tons of transmutation charges per day like i do
infinite transmutation stone would be the best that could happen to you

that stone would have to be like 5000 – 10.000 gems for being infinite use….

2k gems … im pretty sure anet would never do that xD

but i would love to have one…

and had no problem with paying that much because
it is definitly worth it for anyone who has a sense of fashion and more than 1 character….
and for people who dont just buy outfits but create nice mix and match looks instead…

the birthday 24h booster is suddenly not stackable anymore too…

so far no matter if it was 1. or 2. birthday i could always stack them all on 1 slot in my bank but for the last 2. birthday of one of my characters … the birthday booster that i got from the gift did not stack with the others (which were a mix of 1. and 2. birthday boosters already)

would be nice if can be fixed
no sever issue but still definitly slightly annoying

more like 1k kills in 10-15 minutes (just tested it)

this needs fix

Pockets.3201:

There has to be an easier way for the mid one. Not everyone is a rev.

probably possible with Gliding once you have put more mastery points into it i guess

the Condition Symbol for slow is the most cute & hilarious thing i have seen in Guild Wars 2 so far

BFMV.3198:

Engineer – Hammer
Elementalist – Main Hand Sword
Necromancer – Greatsword
Mesmer – Offhand Shield
Guardian – Longbow
Thief – Rifle
Warrior – Shortbow or Offhand Pistol
Ranger – Staff
Revenant – weapons still to be confirmed. Unsure what specialization could be

This seem on point?

where do you have the elementalist sword information from?

i mean is there anything hinting at it?
