Its funny to see all the responses about pistols being too small to be noticed, when my own personal beef is that so many weapons, especially the newer skins, are so HUGE!

Let’s please differentiate here, imo tiny one-hand weapons are mainly an asura-specific problem.

Maybe it is just me, some legendary are jokes. Legendary pistol, snip

Quip is quite literally one, indeed, and meant that way. Should we get an appropriate jester/clown costume i might even tinker a 2nd one. ^.^ For a character not meant as a comical anti-hero Quip is hardly suitable, though.

I’d also like to see bigger & more distinct pistols, like most one-hand weapons they are hardly distinguishable on Asura. Is it just me or are asura held weapons really 1Hs really scaled down a little to far?

I will admit, though, that I hate Quip. I do not want to be packing Pinkie Pie’s Party Pistol :P

Oooh, that’s great. We should be able to individually name our Legendaries… (Needle, some1?). In that case I’ll just steal Azure’s idea. “Pinky Pie’s Purple Party Popper” ^.^

Legendary Weapon Stat Swapping

Suggestion: Harmonize _Cancel Attack_

in Engineer

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

I would certainly use escape if it did not also cancel auto-run and pop the game menu. Ofc only if no ability build up / channel is active, which easily happens in combat and is quite disruptive.
Or is there a way to avoid this which escaped me?

Suggestion: Harmonize _Cancel Attack_

in Engineer

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

We all know it’s very important to cancel ability activations and auto-attacks on certain conditions. Like receiving a big confusion stack or seeing retaliation pop up while using an AoE and/or channeled attack. Ouch!

At the moment regular weapons and slot skills are reliably stopped with Stow Weapon. Kits are treated differently, as bundles, so their activations/auto-attacks require us to “drop” them with Switch weapon. Often enough it fails bc the toon just ran over an unevenness and “You cannot drop bundles while in the air”.

So, as a small QoL improvement, pretty please let us at least stop activations/auto-attacks on bundles with Stow Weapon as well.
And, if still time, let us switch from kits to weapons while “in the air”. No other class is hindered from switching just bc they ran over a pebble stone. In a competitive situation this annoyance can break your toon’s neck.

Cancel cast without hitting Esc?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

This works generally with the exception of bundles. Here you need to use switch weapon instead of stow weapon to stop a build up or auto attack.

Unfortunately engineer kits are bundles, so an engineer needs to press two different buttons to stop attacking on normal weapons and kits.

Legendary Weapons

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

Technically, Legendaries are worse than ascended weapons. You can switch their stats, but not the sigils, without cost-intensively replacing them.

A set of ascended weapons with different stats for different roles can be fitted with suitable sigils. So it sort of makes sense to get a Legendary to skin your set of ascendeds. ^^

There were a few suggestion thread about the Legendary’s stat switch and selecting between previously added sigils along with it. Never got much response. -.-

[Suggestion] Endless Mystery Cat Tonic Duration

I second the thread opener request, a longer, perhaps harmonized morph tonic duration would be nice to have.

While we’re at it: multiple morphs tonics could be so much more conveniently usable if they allowed to choose per hotbar. We’re able to repeatedly use them until we receive the intended morph anyway, it is just annoying this way.

Ideas of engineer skill reworks

in Profession Balance

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

I agree the engineer needs a way of re-deploying turrets quicker than now or else the whole interesting turret mechanic will remain limited to this single scenario.
It’s quite acceptable if specific builds are useless outside their specific niche, but in this case it’s an entire class feature. What a waste.
Also, this faster re-deployment needs to come with a price, ofc, to keep it balanced. We’re not asking to become a second warrior class, after all.

Suggestion: Legendary, Select Stat + Sigils

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

Pardon for bringing this up once again, but it’s still topical: the legendary weapon Select Stats dialog should include changing active sigil(s). Appropriately between a limited number the owner added in earlier. Not asking for a free meal here.

The stat selection mechanism was added to allow Legendaries to be used in different builds. Upgrade components are an integral, important part of them. I don’t need power stacks when dealing condition damage or might in a tanky build.
So I’m forced to keep a pile of ascended weapons along with the legendary one. I doubt this was the developer’s intention.

The dragon finisher is nice, yet a little over the top. To compensate for this, I hereby suggest the Utterly Underwhelming Personal Story Finisher. Tadaaa!

Works analogous to the PS, once you’re half through the activation time, suddenly out of nowhere Trahearne shows up, gently pushes you aside and finishes your downed target himself.
Then he’ll follow you around for several minutes and tell you elaborately about his Wyld Hunt, his self-doubt, his childhood and how This won’t end well.

2nd account for trading, ban-prone?

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Plok.5873

Plok.5873

I used the current opportunity to buy a 2nd GW2 copy exclusively for trading. Yep, I’m one of those freaks who enjoy playing an smurf sized Gordon Gecko rip-off. ^^ I’d like to normally play my main account and stalk the TP on the second TFT. Or trade on my laptop.

Now I’m afraid ANet’s famous trigger-happy heuristics might cause that trade account to get banhammered to oblivion for being a suspected bot. If there are TP bots at all. I’ve read of cases where, e.g., collecting gold for a friend just starting ended with accounts closed for gold selling. And level 2 char on mute client with low resolution and min details camping the trading post all his existence might appear suspicious.

So my question is, can I risk using an account for playing “Gold Wars 2” only? Or will ANet suspect a bot, goldseller or whatnot behind it, close the account and virtually bankrupt me?

[Suggestion] Legendary Sigil Library

Plok.5873

Full support from my side, I was about to post a similar suggestion when I found this.
Sigils are the Legendary’s sore point, the one reason making them less desirable than a set of Ascendeds.
We are meant to switch stats so we can use our expensive & flamboyant prestige objects in all builds and roles. Yet sigils & runes are a very substantial part of those.
Please implement a choice between a (limited?) set of previously added sigils. Legendaries are expensive enough to justify this.
