Guild Wars 2

Hello everyone,

I’d like to know what time (CEST) the final event is planned for October 31st. I want to organise an event for our guild but for that i’ll need times.

Would it start 30-31 midnight? Or at the end of the day? Thanks in advance.

After reading book 1 of: The Sword of Truth i had to name my mesmer: Mord-Sith. But that one was taken ^^ so i combined two of my favorite lore designs in 1 name:
-Mord Razac Sith
Also Razac was taken :(((((((((
So now i still have Ra Zac, which is actually a more accurate spelling of the name anyways, i’m only missing the “’” <- ^_^
Besides those 2 i have:
-Roarac = Norn Ele
-Mccrack = Charr Thief
-Raz o Rac = Charr Necro
Will get more char slots in the future for sure.

What about the Runescape mechanic? The game has the following system:
Random events teleport you away to instanced area’s where you have to complete a simple minigame in order to be teleported back where you where. This system detects people sitting in the same area for extended time periods and will be used more frequently on these people/bots. Now this makes automated botting allot harder not impossible. Just a small idea of my nostalgia MMORPG

€30,- and $45,- First expantsion to be released Christmas 2013… Calling it first!

This post, these forums… its getting worse :S

I still do events for xp else í’ll lag behind if i dont hop between area’s. Well that is level 1-40 after that it’s not a big deal anymore and i find myself exploring allot, on my own. I dont always want to play with other people so ye….

every penny

The weapon bound skill system makes that you can only customise the last 5 skills. Then there is the point of 1 dedicated healing skill and 1 elite. The elites in this game are not really impressive, i mean they look cool ’n stuff but in GW1 you often saw builds centred aroudn the Elites. You dont see this anymore they have to long coodowns for that.

I hope they will add different skills to weapon sets so we get to have some more customization.

What happend to the posts 0,o

Good question, i’d like to know this aswell.

People saying they only need the “1” button propably didnt get past level 2-3. Anyhow, this forum is a sourch of complaints. People who are enjoying the game are playing it now, people who dont get over here to complain (not all of them, but allot). Besides the guildmates it play with are all enjoying the game allot and sure the game isnt perfect but its close enough for me

I would like to point out a blogpost A-Net released today: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/structured-pvp-iceberg/

I’ve got allot of hopes for GW2 sPvP becoming something big we do require some patience though.

Really cool indeed!

I’m thinking of making a simular list in the future

Hello everyone,

I’d like to give some input on what i would like to see in the Gem Store in the future.
For now, the amount of items you can buy is very limited and I think that’s a shame. I’d be very willing to buy some gems, however there isn’t anything I would want to spend my gems on.

Here follows my list of suggestions:

• Ranger pets (PvE only?);
• Character cosmetics change (no race/(sex?) can be changed for obvious reasons);
• Weapon skins;
• More armor sets;
• More town clothing;
• Capes (store only items?);
• World travel tickets, go to any waypoint “x” amount of times;
• Emotes (Gangnam Sytle);
• Add a title for people that spend allot of gems in the store (not real money).

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Now to make this Topic a bit more interactive I’d like to see YOUR idea’s on Gem Store Expansion. I’ll edit your idea’s into the OP (under your name if requested) how crazy they might be.

Your Idea’s:

Logan is the biggest kitten ever… i dislike his character with every viber of my body and you insult hodor by comparing him to Looolgan

I would like it, but dont see it likely to ever happen :/

Tweaking the required tokens for an armor piece for each dungeon would be required though, since some are harder/take longer then others.

This dungeon takes 5 hours? And you only get tokens in the end? My god, i might aswell forget ever getting that armorset -_-"

The thing i would like to see in the coming expantsions are new skills for each weapon. This will give more freedom in building your character like in guild wars 1.

The progression system you suggested i’m not a fan of, simply because people that only PvP will never note the progression at all and i dont think it’ll add more customization, which as the poster above me stated is what we need.

I’m going to just be honest.
This is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever read.

Someone who lets an MMO trigger his phobia with something that anyone knows is not real has some major psychological issues and it has nothing to do with the phobia.

On the matter, maybe all Dungeons and Crypts should become outdoor because of claustrophobic players…

I fully agree with you. Except for the dungeon part

I would like to know however, what happens to your friend when he/she sees a spiderish creature in-game?

The cap is 33%, Elementalist can achieve a permanent 33% boost easy.

This is Azmeria

That’s extraordinary.

I agree fully on all these parts.

Especially part 1, some people where 80 in 3 days 0,o. I still cant wrap my head around it… And then they complain the game isnt fun. Poor bunny’s

The day they announced the first 5 skills to be weapon based + the dedicated healing slot i was very dissapointed. Also you cound’t use a secondary profession anymore. This removes the awesome skill-building GW1 had. Now dont dont get me wrong i’m enjoying the game a lot! But if they could bring back skillset building somehow that would be great.

Money isn’t an obstacle to me. 32,000 gems isn’t an obstacle to convert into 100g. It’s some $500. Big whoop. I spend more than that taking my wife out to dinner.

obviously just kitten stroking their kitten.

The irony , OH the irony.

Sir, your a genius ROFL!

Aion was in allot of internet adverts, that’s how i found out about the game. Aion sold very well at the beginning so i find it hard to say they failed. What they did fail at was continuing their web presence, i don’t think I’ve seen much advertising anywhere after they went live.

Anyways, you dont need those TV adverts with famous people in them to become a success. WoW didn’t had those adverts when they originally launched… The best advertisement is mouth to mouth something GW2 was very good at stimulating.

Liked the vid

Nachtnebel i wonder, did you watch it?

PS. Nemesis, do you play starcraft 2 ?

Would be nice if we could get a dev. response here!

Did this quest yesterday, i had no problems. But indeed after killing the devourer a cut scene should happen.

The music stops way to often, which is a pity since its an absolute master peace. It’s like skyrim, cant listen to any other music while playing that game either it just removes from the experience.

This might change in the future tho when i’ve played the game “to” much ;P

Banks already dominate everything irl… I’d not like to see this in a game, ever.

Its being worked on.

It should work FIFO if people put up the exact same price per product.

I’m guessing its FIFO: First in First out? If not it would be strange?

I cant care less about Halloween, its not big where i’m from anyway’s. I just want them to fix bugs, balance pvp and focus on killing bots/gold sellers. I’d like to see events later on tho, alway’s enjoyed the gw1 events allot

Race change will never happen, they’ll add the ability to change general cosmetics for sure and maybe a gendre change. But a Race change would just be out of the question because of the personal story.

Question tho, is there only 1 set of karma gear 0,o? Speaking in terms of looks.

Edit. Also, the armor of the 3 orders needs to be added, but i guess that was already on you list

I can not return the message for some reason… But i refuse to take that money, sons of puppy’s!

Forum bugged, í’ll +1 when i can!

The first link indeed doesnt work, i guess you embedded a broken link.

Edit. Bookmarked!

You dont really need allot of gold, the best(looking) armors you can get from dungeons. Maybe you need some for crafting. You do need gold ofcourse if you want to buy T2/3 cultural armor or any of the armor of the 3 orders.

Is the botting really that bad in this game that you would just up and quit after spending 60 bucks for it? lol. I give it time and let Anet do something about it…Lord knows when, but soon™ I hope. xP

I’ve never seen a bot in my 170 hours of gameplay, though i’m just level 60 and i suppose the bots are in level 80 area’s.

Kessex Hills. The broken bridge the centaurs want to repair. At least on the eight servers I’ve played on – they never go away. There are other prime spots, too. that one is just a classic. It can be fun to sit there watching all those ‘players’ firing at nothing and spamming F and hearing the NPC greetings every two seconds for half an hour.

Well i’ve been there once so cant really comment on that. I never really “look” for bots, maybe its my ignorance but i just dont really see any obvious bots. The bots i’m used to are the ones from Aion. In Aion (NCSoft MMorpg) you have to grind allot and bots ruin the grind cuz they “steal” your mobs. Thats where i did notice bots allot, in GW2 though because of the way the game works bots dont really anoy me(yet).

The reason I log out… Bed time :/

I dont mind underwater combat, its far from perfect and as an elementalist i feel the dps is to low (great control skills, no dps). This can result into a long and boring kiting sessions.

DKP.4196:

The debuffs have always been there, the armour repairs dont cost much. I die on average 1-3x per dungeon? I get downed probably 5-20x depending on the day, but a flimsy 11s repair cost for everything destroyed is nothing compared to the 30-50s you get from each dungeon run.

Why bother taking away the repair cost, people will just die on purpose, corpse run, bot, etc. The list continues.

I dont mind he buffs, but in my expirience so far (maybe i just die more) its to costly. Especially if i’m leveling in one area and i want to go to dungeon it’ll cost ~2 silver to get there and then when i’m done i want to go back where i was another ~2 silver. For me thats to much = 5% of my money (80 silver).

But i see the problems that could occur when removing these penalty’s. I’d just like to see A-Net come up with new innovative way’s of solving them

Well i’m not sure if its “overgrown”, the story in games just never really has an impact on me. I’ve never really been able to care about the characters (trying to think of one argh) in (mmorpg)games. I do like the “cutscenes” they have created, the voice-acting is pretty good (generally speaking) and helps to emerge me a little more in the story.

Basically what I’ve gotten from the story so far (lvl 55):

For me this has not been immersive because it doest feel related (it does though, somehow). Also because of reading on the forums to much and just knowing your going to kill Zaithan first time you hear about him makes it less immersive.

RaZaC.1963:

Its funny that they (A-Net) stated many times you should not be punished for dying, because death in it self is a punishment. I’ve seen nothing of this back in the actual game. Armor repairs are a huge money sink and so are waypoints (teleport after defeated).

I’d rather they lower the dungeon rewards and removde the hassle of repairing armor then haveing to play X silver for my armor repairs and getting a higher amound of silver at the end.

Do you understand the whole games economy?
I dont think so.

Repairs are in game for a reason. And how much do you pay for repair is for a reason as well. How much do you pay for waypoints also.

Every normal player gets more money out of the dungeon than he has to spend on repairs.

And if you dont like paying for waypoints, you can always get to your target location on feet.

Sorry, but i dont see the need of these methods as the right way to implement money-sinks, and if you respond to my comment please make it a complete one.

I’ll give you a link to the article regarding the original post by GW2 (now removed).

Oke apparently they changed there mindset in this whole penalty system somewhere, they now do debuff you and besides that the teleporting to waypoints is relatively expensive. And they added the armor repair system.

I fully understand the system of money-sinks, i’ve played many mmo’s in my life and know they are needed. I would just have liked to see GW2 innovate in this more, they could have come up with more creative money-sinks.

This has been suggested before, i support this +1

You are never to old to be a gamer…

Besides that, i agree with you that so far (i’m level 55) it has been very cliché. Being a geek that i am and reading all kinds of fantasy series that are way more complecated then the story in Guild Wars 2 does have an impact.

I’ve noticed this in a series of books i read from a age of 14 (Ranger’s apprentice) now i’m 19 and read series like A Game of Thrones and dont find the series like that exciting anymore. So i gues this is just a big part of me growing up :P (my parents will contest this statement).

I dont know your age, but i play GW2 because of epic events and slaying dragons etc. etc. etc. but also for the challange in gameplay it offers, good story’s i’ll get out of good books. I dont expect story’s to be good in mmorpg’s, i play this genre for the interaction between people (guild) and the gear , shiny!

AND PVP!!!!!
