Why would you want them limited to ONLY your town clothes? Currently you can use them on town clothes, armor, and a bunch of other things! Bad suggestion >:(

see that is where you come in and say yes make them toys but let them keep there current functionality as an account wide item and can use the kite with my such and such tonic. Then I win, you win, we all win….but no, just shoot it down, lets not even try to improve any idea.

Toys are a town clothing slot, putting it there adds 0 functionality and limits how it can be used.

Guys, to me “Legendary” means some unique thing that has an epic lore of destiny about it. It is UNIQUE, what is unique about an item you can clone as much as you want??

I don’t support this idea.

You would still have to put in the effort to make the legendary first. This idea allows you to then show your achievement for having made one through all your characters.

Last I checked you actually can do that already in game…

Most of the people didn’t even think about the most worse of that change:
Every week, we as guild do some kind of “starter event” for newbies in dungeons. We always have at least one starter in there. But let’s assume they have their first lvl 80 char without any exotic equip: How would they get one?

Gold/ BT? Oh wow, since most of the armor cost about 2-3 gold each part, that means about 20 gold only for that, not inclusive runes, sigils, weapons. For a starter it’s an impossible sum without guild help.

Karma? Come on, most of those stats aren’t really any good in PvE.

Crafting? Wow, invest about 10+ gold, and then investing more than 10 gold for materials except you already get them…nothing better than auction house.

Getting dungeon tokens? Wow, now you need to have much more time to do this. And sorry to say so, but we can sponsor only one starter in a group. Because eq is bad, it means lesser damage/heal, it means overall low performance. And it means for the people already being in that they need to make place or anything like that, because going dungeons two times a day isn’t rewarding at all.
Getting the tokens for only one complete armor is getting about a week or more, but only if taking all the ways. But in some dungeons, some ways are already not that easy (e.g. TA, Arah, AC), so it means that you already need to invest MORE time since some ways are only doable with a completely exotic group.

The only people that are rewarded: My kind, those people already having 5 characters at 80 and only bringing up an alt for fun and nothing more. I have full equip, but what about all those starters? In the last sum of updates, they got handicapped greatly. First the living story with all those exclusive updates like, for example, new runes/sigils. Secondly the Anet point system, rewarding every 500 account points by gold and rewarding point farmers but actual no casual players; and on top of that now the dungeon token nerf, making it way harder to get full equipped characters.

Now it is not rewarded at all spending more time than “allowed” by Arenanet to play GW2.

MANY paths are soloable so they could be running with you long before they hit 80, you can take more than 1 new person, and dungeon gear is only special for the skins not some magically better exotic stats than regular exotic.

Soloable?? are you even playing the game?? and even so, people allready were running dungeons before lvl 80, it still doesn`t change the fact that you`ll be spending a whole lot more time in the dungeons for an armor set. As DaKillaOfHell.5907 allready said, thsi is the only way for new players because the prices are too high on the TP. same with precursors and certain crafting materials of which I read another post where they said they`d look into that … months ago … never happened.

Yes, soloable, because some of us ACTUALLY play the game.

I’d love to see a four Ele team absolute mince up everything a dungeon has by alternating Fiery Greatswords for almost every encounter. Bring a Warrior for Empower Allies and banners, maybe Fear Me for some positioning, though that Ele swing sends em pretty far anyway.
I think everything would die before you noticed the lack of reflect projectiles, and if absolutely necessary I’m sure some offhand focus subbing in could do the trick on those select few encounters. Actually yeah, offhand dagger is mainly for the fire field which you’d have enough of with two other Ele’s (though I forget if any traits benefit OH dagger) but then there’s the issue of dropping the Hammer/FGS to use the focus… I dunno I think I’ll just stop there…

Just two eles in CoE is enough to do this to absolutely everything that can be positioned like that (while skipping what is normally skipped). Everything dies off too fast with just 2 fiery gswords out to bother keeping 4 up.

Boohoo why can’t I do dailies with my alts and get the extra laurels!

Boohoo why can’t I do my monthly with my alts and get the extra laurels!

I’m sure there’s other crap too but circumventing time limitations by abusing alts leaves me with little sympathy.

Now those who legitimately want to get gear from a dungeon for multiple characters, that I can understand the complaint. Maybe make it so that tokens are character bound…problem solved!

That’s exactly what I’m talking about. I have 6 level 80s, so I have 6x as many weapons and pieces of armor to get as someone with only 1. Why is it such a big deal if I can gear them all in the same amount of time as a person with 1 gears if I put in 6x the work? With this change, I’m not allowed to put in more work than someone with 1 character, and instead just have to do it for 6x more days.

I guess the only solid reason is that the rewards are account bound and not soulbound and that they did not want people that spend hours a day grinding away on GW2 to get a massive leg up over more casual players by using those account bound things to gear up one character super quickly.

We’re talking about skins and a tiny fraction of runes. Not exactly a leg up and not something you NEED to get on all your alts, they’re skins.

This is happening in my guild too. If you don’t make it in time to be first in line for the dungeon groups, you’re not getting your dungeons done.

and you’re not going to run them again casually with other people because there is no point (20 token, no silver drops etc).

And that is the heart of why I hate this patch. Being on PST, I’m going to be behind my east coast friends in starting dungeons after resets. And my Aussie and Kiwi friends are going to suffer even more in not being able to group with us easily.

If anet saw that we were earning TOO MANY tokens per hour or whatever, then why not just reduce the number of earned tokens per run yet allow us to earn the new maximum tokens without the daily gold with our alts? That was the main reason why I had alts kitted out for dungeons, to earn tokens faster.

This patch did nothing to keep you from playing with your friends. You all reset at the same time and if you’re actually friends then go ahead and play together whenever you want. Anet didn’t move your friends into other time zones.

Healing Signet isn’t any worse than the constant regen + other boons you can stack to high heaven on Eles and Guardians.

guardians don’t have the mobility, eles don’t have the CC, not to mention that both are hard countered by boon stripping – a hard counter that doesn’t exist here.

You can’t strip resolve/soothing and heal sig is a 6 skill so of course it should be better than some utility applied regen.

BUT you must forfeit any chest you have worked for, as you come back dead at the beginning of the map, with no way of getting your reward.

he’s not talking about coming back dead, the whole thing with dungeon reward system in this game is if you don’t have a character in the instance in that certain points on time where the reward pop up screen shows up you get nothing. So when you DC at those crucial moments then you get absolutely nothing

If I just want exotic armors, I would just join the wvw zerg and get the badges and then buy them in wvw. They are so easy and cheap. The reason for me to run certain dungeons with mutliple alts before the nerf, I run it because I need certain skins/runes and exotic weapons.

For example, I suddenly feel like to play a cleric build and need the superior rune of monk. It’s not sold on TP but can only be acquired from the AC dungeon tokens. Seriously I have not touched AC dungeons ever since it became time comsuming to play because of ccertain bosses. I don’t enjoy getting wiped then some people leave and the rest have to wait for new people coming in. Anyway, a rune is 120 tokens and I need 840 tokens for 7 (underwater helm need the rune too). So before the nerf it takes 2 days to get them all if I use 7 alts to focus on 1 path only. After the nerf, it takes 14 days for 1 alts to play on 1 path only. Part of reason I don’t grind dungeon is because it’s only 20 token after the 1st try which is inefficient to play.

Note that I do not play AC because I want to play it or want to farm it. I play because I suddenly need the tokens. So in order to play a new build that just came out in my mind, I now have to spend 14 days to get the rune in a dungeon I don’t really want to play. Should I just forget about trying this build all together? If any new build that I want to try have so much time needed ahead, should I bother playing new builds at all?

I agree playing multile alts are for fun. But they have to be geared/skined for different builds which took a lot of time before the nerf already. With so many changes that is not in favor with people who have multiple alts in dungeon/wvw and look like things have to take a long time to accomplish, it’s really getting less incentive to continue on.

If you bothered to do all 3 paths you could get it in 5 days with no extra runs, and probably more like 3-4 days because they drop as loot.

In Defense of the Mace: Why it's Fine as is

in Warrior

Posted by: Player Character.9467

Player Character.9467

Well, as far as I recall in ANet’s stating it was said BM wasn’t OP (AFAIK they were extremely strong 1v1, but they died quickly when focused), BUT they wanted to give more damage potential to the ranger than to the pet. So it’s more like they are in the middle of a process: if this is true, then I think dev’s intention is to make sure Rangers remain strong. So they should expect buffs, right?

They nerfed their damage because they said they increased the pets survivability a ton in a previous patch (they didn’t)

They gave them like 50%hp buffs and 20% dmg nerfs, oh no! now they do more b4 dying but they aren’t as stealth and spike!

Is Longbow just bad?

Posted by: Player Character.9467

Player Character.9467

Longbow is our only AoE weapon, and it’s a solid weapon overall. I love it for WvW sieges and siege breaks.

Burst is simply fantastic (and our only combo field in the game)

  1. double attacks to build adren faster
  2. is sorta meh
  3. is really strong in a power build
  4. is meh
  5. is good but the CD is a bit too long.

It’ll never be zomgdamage like rifle vs a single target can be, but it can still cause a lot of hurtin’ in the right hands

Try using 2 at point blank right b4 weapon swapping to melee. All 3 hits and 3 ticks of burn. 4 also fires off very quickly, you can even shoot 3, see some1 pop aegis, and use 4 to strip the aegis before 3 hits the ground.
