Guild Wars 2

I think the main point is actually…Fine…Transmutation…Stones…

I doubt it will ever be implemented..just look how they use old skins, change their colours to make “new” sets, like they did to TA weapons…
Also you get Glyph weaps dye them red and you get SE set, Mystic weaps, dye them red—> Magic! CoE set…

I would like to see:
-More and GOOD town clothing, as good as NPC’s, good long dresses for women, some noble-like outfit for men, ragged clothes….there is plenty of styles that could be implemented.
-Backpacks that possibly are neither flowers, nor wall accessories nor kindergarten backpacks. It would be cool to have something different as well, that’s what I mean, not that you have to remove those or to totally stop adding more. Just give some different styles.
-EL tonics.
-Boosters that actually lasts a week or a month. I honestly am never gonna spend a coin for something that lasts one hour.
-Why not, tattoes (Piercings, earrings, necklaces that show on your character) for every race implemented only in Makeover kits.
-More music instruments.
-Some glowing dyes, but not normal dye packs from which you have 99.9999% chance to get a uber common brown that you sell for 80 coppers. Like “Lemon yellow glowing dye” , for something like that I’d pay, for unidentified stuff I’ll give not a gem, not even out of in-game gold anymore after the browns experiences.
-More and better “nostalgic” Gw1 armors please.

I don’t see why people got so surprised…look around and you’ll see in this game there is loads of recycled stuff. Why will we never get weapons to be dyable? Because it would reduce their options for “new” sets. Recycle design, changing colour and apply some tiny random meaningless animation and ta-da! New set.
Other examples? Those new blue TA weapons, CoE+Mystic weapons, HT3+CM weapons, Glyph+SE weapons, Sylvari and Asura sharing same T1 and T2 cultural weapons…

The Godforged Hellstorm in there normally pulls you immediately, so if you used frenzy already it’s kind of wasted, if you don’t manage to dodge..as for that, I normally go (with my War) Healing Surge as soon as the gate opens, to boost my adrenaline—> Sigil of rage—>Balanced stance—>For Great Justice—>Frenzy—>Hundred Blades…with some good Bloodlust stacks on me this way I normally need just 1 100 blades and 3-4 GS autoattack hits to send it down…

I think there is more chance for a Rox plushie backpack tbh, but we can hope! ;D

maxinion.8396:

You’re very welcome to spend 3x longer on your runs so you can collect 10 more gobbly kittens, but don’t expect us to~

This. ^

The other two armors are copies of other in-game armors as well, just the ugliest designed armor out there with a bit of fire on them, why there aren’t getting a re-work as it should be done to be correct?

Miku.6297:

3k+ hours played 1 precursor drop total…

Over 800 rares and 200 exos in the toilet no precursor from it.

It’s why I never gamble in the casinos!

5k+ hours not a single precursor drop neither from bosses, chests nor Mystic toilet. Put 4 exotic GSs last time (Not even 1 pearl in the combo), got a Pearl. Wasted loads of money in tryings now I just sell every single rare, exotic and crap I find or salvage, only when I have some LTsalvage kit for free.

Yes, I’ve definitely spent more in gems.

Funny thing is that I’ve always thought the opposite, who buys gems get some kind of increased MF for some time…well, I came to think this after some situations, probably just normal RNG, where right after buying gems I get Abyss from a random dye in Plains of Ashford on a low alt…next time I buy gems, I get 3 Celestial dyes dropped in 2 days…friend of mine, next day after buying some gems gets from a JP chest an Ascended box…I think it’s just RNG that trolls though…

Hello.
Anyone can suggest me some good build in Arah as Thief?

Hello everyone,
what’s the most dps build for thief in dungeons? Weapons, and traits.
Better Assassin Armor or Berserker? Rune of Eagle or Scholar?

What kind of armor/weapon is the best? I mean, with which of these I can have more dps?

What kind of armor/weapon is the best? I mean, with which of these I can have more dps?

Ok, thank you. And what with runes? Power-crit, power-precision or crit-precision?

And I know, I was just joking, even if he’s sexy for real :P
The race you mean are Charr?

Oh sorry, forgot to write that.
For dungeons mostly.

A very sexy human male with silver hair. lol

Hello everyone,
I’m liking a lot Ranger, but can’t find an efficent dps build for Gs, Sword-axe.
Anyone could give me some suggestion?

With that build what dps can you do?

Anyone can tell me what’s the best build to use?

Hi, I’d be interested.
My char’s name is Nelly Pipkiller Rex, warrior or mesmer.
But what time are you usually running it? I’ve time all afternoon before 5 pm.

Haven’t you already bought said kit in order to preview the hairstyles and have your great investigation on clipping issues? Just asking.

They should just badly downscale armor and weaps stats as well as level, to actually match level 80s to that level. At the moment, the very downscaling system has no meaning, sidekicked 89s are still overpowered compared to any player of that lower level.
Plus, if you think you may not complete a ridiculously easy dungeon like AC, because of a couple of lower levels in team, you should ask yourself how badly you suck as a player yourself first. I saw lower levels with 500 achis that could kick butts very badly to over half of the 6k+ AP 80s dudes out there.
And I speak after duoing almost every dungeon in this game, AC included.

It would indeed appeal players of all types and ages really!

I’d love this, I really would. My best friend and I are duoing dungeons to compensate the lack of Heores and henchmen.
People will start to cry and scream that adding that would “kill” the social side of the game and nonsenses like that. I say that in this game, there is nothing less social than dungeons, and if you often pug for finding a team you know what I mean.
Normal conversation for a dungeon run: Me joins a team “Hi!” 2 members reply, half the time not even an answer to that. 1 time over 10, someone will be cheerful and even say “welcome” (Happened once in my life only, after playing every day since headstart.). Sometimes it might turn out that no one has story done on that character or that no one is entering, so someone might go “Ready” “Enter”.
Run the dungeon without a single word, if things go smooth. Insults if someone does something wrong, rarely someone might explain a strategy.
“Thx 4 run, bb.” The end.
And this when people are not just kicked before even starting from some elitist that decided that the person is not good enough.
Personally, I’m preferring duoing stuff, taking three times longer due to the too high hp pools of mobs, but at least I don’t have to come actoss some jerks.

This is something that I would like to see as well, and I actually was pretty disappointed to find out, after buying a kit on gem store some months ago, that I couldn’t use my Celestial dye on that freaky bandana on my Norn’s head. I am never going to use a hairstyle with accessories in it, unless/until this feature is finally implemented.

It’s just sad how people keep spamming this forum with this useless request. As mentioned by others, this game doesn’t need healers, Guardians do it more than fine.
If you can’t live without an AoE heal, remove that Renewed Focus Elite skill and get yourself a Tome of Courage—>press 5(Light of Deliverance)—→your team’s hp is fully restored.
Another chance, get yourselves a focus and click/press on 4 (Ray of Judgment) AoE heal again.
This game kind of doesn’t need to kick other professions out even more, and turn out to be a 4 zerk Warriors+1 Monk game.

I support this…tried to make a Human Elementalist to have some elder and wise look, actually to remind of Gandalf from Tolkien’s lore, but the result is just silly, also due to the totally unfitting voice… ._.

Or kicked to just allow the others to sell your spot.
I agree with you on all of yours points to be honest and I know what you mean!

panzer.6034:

Lol. They made a bunch of new women’s styles and have half of them to the men.

o.O They added 3 new hairstyles to each gender of every race!

I’m so happy I can’t describe -

Seriously, they need to earn somewhere and that’s the best add we had in months. They will have my money support for this.
OP…the company won’t pay bills with your charming new characters you know?

champ.7021:

you can do dungeons just not every path. if you’re mesmers u might be able to do it with 2 people because you can use portal/blink to do it. I think ive done it before in the harpy fractal.
Anyways you can duo/trio arah, ac, ta, maybe cm, hotw, and se
I dont know if you can do them all just from what i remember you should be able to do paths in these dungeons with less than 5 people.

We used teleporting skills to be the quickest possible in lasers part of CoE, didn’t work.
We duoed a whole Fractal (Full 3+Jade maw), including harpy without the need of portals nor mesmers.
As for AC, in path 2, I don’t know how could anyone duo (Not speaking of final boss traps) traps part, one on trap and one kiting gravellings?
Defending Hodgins in path 1? Really…maybe with a utterly pro-zerker warrior and utterly pro-full tank-support guardian…
Imo in whole AC only path 3 is duoable, and there with at least a good zerker and an ele…
CM, path 2…barrel parts? I doubt one only person can throw enough barrels to distract those many bandits from getting the ones places in red circles, ever, not even with the greatest thief doing the job.
Arah…maybe all paths but path 1, or Tar boss is never gonna spawn. And path 4, really? No need to say how long it would take to kill Dwayna then, if even possible.
Maybe the duoable paths, that wouldn’t require utterly pros, but could go for more casuals, are HotW path 1 (If you have a lifetime to play for the hp pools), TA up…Se path 1…Arah path 2 and perhaps path 3 as well, if people are good enough to carry orb between each other.
But duoing dungeons supposed to be for a 5-men team: takes 3 times longer, if not more. It’s way too harder than it is for 5 people and easy to fail, easily gets unpleasant as experience, mostly if you duo FotM and find out that your LAST Fractal is Swamp.
That’s why a fair add would be to scale dungeons according to the number of players, be it from 2 to 5. It would as well be a good chance for new players to actually learn the dungeons, since they are fairly being kicked from every team, every dungeon, every path, always more.

Father Grimm.8467:

I run in MMOs with two friends one or two nights a week, communicating over VOIP. Sometimes one of us can’t make it, so it’s a duo.

We are constantly vexed by game designers rigidly aiming content at either one or five players. We tend to level slowly and with many alts, checking out as many of the maps in the game as possible. Often we’ll try to outlevel 5-man content in other games so that it’s manageable by three.

We haven’t tried dungeons or fractals yet, and our characters are nearing 30. Are either of these types of content viable for three characters leveling up? Is there anything else to explore in the game other than solo quests or jumping into random group events?

Typically, games end for us at max level, when the content is aimed at gear grinding for groups or raids and is very unmanageable for a trio. We’d like to find ways to enjoy GW2 that meets the Goldilocks test for a group of three – not too hard, not too soft.

You can do dungeons in groups of three or two if you try

Most of dungeons do not allow you to get to the end.
For example, I duoed CoE with my friend, laser part wouldn’t let us go on because we needed 2 more people to deactivate, or the gate to pass to next boss wouldn’t open.

I know how you feel and I have been screaming for the same for long. I doubt it will ever happen though, since it appears that it’s considered a social side of game. So, basically,
Enter a team → say “hi” → receive barely a one “hi” back from max 2 other members of team → silently run whole content → “thx 4 run, bye” → leave
is too much social so we can not run dungeons with only a friend or two, we necessarely need to go with strangers to make it social enough and be freed of our will to actually share some impressions with our friends even.

I totally support you, +1

marnick.4305:

Do 3 dungeons paths.
Have an exotic drop every day.

Woohoow.

Guaranteed ways to get exotics exit on many places. What you ask for is the same system. Would that improve the game in any way?

Do up to 7 dungeon runs x day (Different dungeons and different paths) Get max 2 rares worth no more than 25s.
Spent 2 hours farming champions in Frostgorge..on over 30 boxes I got 1 rare. Which are those guaranteed ways to get exotics?

Bismuth.3165:

yeah, a lot of the people from that tool are… not that good, gw2lfg has better playerbase, and the description isn’t really obvious in the lfg tool.

Most if not all groups I joined in using the tool got no issues running any dungeon from AC to HoTW. Of course not including the crazy broken/bugged paths like AC p2 or TA F/U. Maybe getting a good or bad group is a matter of luck, but they generally don’t suck like you’ve said based on my experience.

I did have horrific runs with LFG site as well…it’s all a matter of luck trust me. Nothing matters. Happened to run TA often lately…ended up in parties with lower levels with less than 1000 achis, run went smooth like oil. Ended up in teams with all 80s claiming experienced people only, who wiped at VINES…went to AC path 3 with a level 40 ele and 50ish Ranger, smooth like oil, went there with 3 wars and 2 guards, had just to give up on Spider Queen despite on corner…….
so…it’s just another RNG x)

I would actually wonder why random NPCs gets new, better and more unique features (Hairstyles at first) than our PCs, which by now look like a bunch of clones, mainly when playing Charr, Asura and Sylvari, but Norn and Human are close enough as well.

Blind Guardian, Nightwish, some Manowar…and Metallica sometimes.

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542:

You have to remember that:
1) Unlike the website, full groups are removed automatically.
2) The LFG tool is great for yolo-ing a COF Path 1 but useless for anything actually challenging.

Actually the only dungeon I don’t manage to run with the tool is CoF path 1, since teams fill faster than the time my arrow takes to go from “refresh” to “join”, Never had toubles with Arah (Path 3 excluded, but since even before the LFG tool was added.).

^ Jazzllanna is very right, teams fill so fast I often don’t even manage to join one who is looking for 3 more in time. Besides, it probably also depents on what time you look at it…and overall, people just need to get used to it and you will see way more users.

Thank you for your answer, it certainly is enough for me! I may still hate those sellers, but I will certainly stop reporting them for that.

I hope not to have chosen a wrong category; (If so, I sincerely apologise) since I find reporting rather bound to account and I would like specific answer, not just some squabbling hate answer by those who are against this. that I would likely receive in Discussions.
To the point…I keep seeing on the LFG tool, people selling dungeon paths, very often and for every dungeon in game.
Is it actually licit to sell dungeon paths and advertise this on the LFG? Am I right to report these sellers or I should quit?
Thank you in advance.

No, because Guardians are harassed enough by all of the dreadful, bad (Bad zerker players, meant. Not all Zerkers are dumb or bad.) zerkers around who are unable to dodge a house in a boulevard and go “Guard heal party heal party noob ima zerk heal party”; if a healer profession was added, I wouldn’t want to be in its role for any reason in the world.
In this game, players have the great chance to dodge and avoid damage, + there are 2 great support professions who can provide a team of every needed boon to feel safe and sound.
Healer profession is not needed and would just turn the game in an even more zerker-or-nothing environment.

Sonia.7910:

I came to this thread looking for a suggestion similar to Nikola Rebic’s one, though I like also the OP’s idea. My idea was an “explorer mode” in which the character didn’t count as a fighting player, thus he would still be killable, but he wouldn’t count as a victory for the other players, neither he would be a reinforcement for his team. They could be marked with a star or something like some NPCs in game. Of course mean players could still kill them for the pleasure, adding to the difficulty, but since they would mean no reward, that would discourage quite a bunch of people, making exploring more fair (It is not the same to fight against an AI than another player, and it’s not the same to explore dodging PvE foes than trying to avoid a player to kill you). And again PvE dangers and challenges would be there too.

I know people says “That’s the way to make you explore all the world” but in this case, why Dungeons don’t count for the Map Completion Achievement?.

Players like some of us who don’t like other players trying to kill us aren’t a burden or sissies. We just want to explore because it is beautiful and fun. And that way, we all woud win.

This would definitely bring back to me some will to complete map again with alts rather than keep them on 90% map and having no intention in the world to even approach WvW maps for a mistake.

MatthewMedina.5419:

“hide footwear” option on characters, but to no avail. We got the option to hide gloves/gauntlets not that long ago, and that was in response to a bug that was needed to be fixed. hint

That I would love so much for my Charrs! :O

It was probably made this way to avoid to have level 9 people to randomly join for something they don’t even have a clue what it is and end up insta-kicked, or kicked as soon as team realizes they are not going to switch. Happened even before, many times for AC to have new players randomly joining parties just because they see everyone else asking for it.

I think you’ll be seeing that only in your dreams :<
