What caused this to happen? Someone trying to manipulate the market, or did anet just stop supplying the rune?

Daily Worthless Actions & Daily Achievements

Are dailies really “all over the place”? or are they just where no one except new players have a reason to go? Where are the daily’s designed for players who have full map completion, and more than enough mats stored in their personal bank accounts to craft anything they want?

Should dailies be designed specifically for players who are not working on end game content? Where are the dailies for people who finished the basic exploration and farming aspects, past the point of interest. Is this an attempt to make PVP and broken WvW the endgame?

Silk doesn’t need to go down in price, the other equivalent mats need to go up. leather for example should not be selling at merch values. If its value went up, players could sell it and buy silk, which would even everything out.

Alone in the activities and the SUB ita

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Reanne.5462

Reanne.5462

As Colin Johanson stated in a recent interview (Bog Otter’s, I believe), there is a technical limitation to being able to create parties for Activities. If the Devs ever find a way around said technical limitation (of the engine), they will implement parties for Activities, etc.

Except that if it is ever implemented, those of us that don’t party up are going to never have a chance to win (in certain ones anyways), which is why I’m glad people can’t party up. It would also make it easier for people to farm the APs (like keg ball), since they could conceivably queue up a map for just them (if the group/guild is big enough).

Did you just say that guild should not be allowed to play together, because its unfair to people not in a guild? Should the difficulty of an achievement be created by preventing people who are friends from playing together?

I’ve said before I would love for a guild to start a mini game in the same way a guild can start a guild mission.

Wildcard, PUG populated server

in WvW

Posted by: Reanne.5462

Reanne.5462

How many people across all servers, are sitting in queue, right now? Are there enough people to fill a ‘PUG’ borderland, Would it be possible to throw a PUG BL into the matchups, that people could choose to join while they are in queue. (First person to mention EOTM gets smacked)

or maybe people could voluntarily join the ‘PUG’ server also – I think it could work as a wildcard, would change things up a bit. As an example at reset the match up would be #7 SoS, vs #8 HOD vs PUG,

Not sure how to resolve the odd server out though, maybe #24 would automatically be put into the PUG group

Anyone have any suggestions to improve on my idea?
Please keep the fatalistic, it’ll never work comments to yourself, Unless you can back them up of course. And like I said before, this has nothing to do with EOTM!

Ok now that it has been made quite clear that their is a large disparity between #7 and #8, and #7 needs someone to match up against.

Server jumping multiple rank positions

Reanne.5462

When I originally looked at the rankings, I was genuinely suprised to see HOD so close to the top, I mean having 15 servers below us, and I feel as though even our BLs have pretty skimpy coverage… What is going on beneath us?

If there are servers with very close ‘glicko’ ratings, it sounds like we should be perfect matchs for each other, and yet there always seems to be a server dominating the other 2.

Can someone tell me what was the determining factor in HOD jumping from 12th rank in week #6 to 9th in week #7?

The only reason I ask is because the matchup is completely onesided and it makes me really not feel like playing the game anymore.

HOD went for over a year moving 1 position, up or down. Why did we jump 3 spots overnight?

Help with making gold/playing the tp?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Reanne.5462

Reanne.5462

There are items on the TP that can be salvaged, and the results can be resold for more coin than you spent on the original purchase. Insignias and inscriptions of a type that only come from salvaging come to mind. Use a BL Salvage kit. There are also some runes that sell for higher than the exotic armor that they are attached to, although not so many these days.

Is it fair to say there are 1 million new players who never saw Super adventure box? What I don’t understand is why it would be so difficult to just re-add the original SAB, the content is already built, designed and integrated. I couldnt care less if they added a new SAB map, but why is it so hard to “turn on” the old content?

Does any employee even read this thread anymore? or are their heads firmly buried in the sand. ( sw… dtop)

Silver Wastes Farming

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Reanne.5462

Reanne.5462

Its the WvW problem all over again. The area is an instance designed for a major objective, and the people doing that major objective are hindered by stragglers who want to do the small side distractions within that zone. Just like the guy who goes into wvw to craft on reset, people who are chest farming are detracting from the larger goal of the zone. Anet didnt create the map so you could be mindless sheep. Thats just how many people want to use it. I agree, chests should only spawn in time between VW and beginning of event cycle.

Buncha selfish people, “omg if I stop to rez, I ll fail the event” Ya, maybe… But if Everyone was standing where they are supposed to be, and not spread out, the group could speed rez anyone downed fast enough. Half the events fail because people still treat them at solo events, while standing next to other people, soloing the same event. Every man/woman for themselves. Seems the majority of players still don’t understand the concept of splashes and skills that become 100 times more powerful when used with others.

So I see that GOM is flailing, apparantly losing numbers. I recall it wasnt too long ago that a bunch migrated from there to HOD, and then left shortly therafter.
Personally I have been on HOD since beta, (not counting a brief day on Yaks, because our guild had originally decided to start there…)

I wonder which server has had the least loyal player base? Hey anet can we get some stats on migration movements?

Male Legendary Bow?

Isn’t someone saying a person shouldnt be allowed to want a “manly” weapon, just as ignorant as someone saying an individual shouldn’t be allowed to want a “girly” weapon? Flowers and unicorns, are traditionally feminin, they are delicate, and soft ( except maybe the horn) MMORPGs are about stereotypes Ugly is bad, Pretty is good, Monsters vs Knights. Don’t tell me I need to be asexual. Women can be tough, hardcore and brutish fine. and men can be softspoken and gentle. But if I want a bow that shoots screaming flaming bloody skulls, instead of flowers. don’t tell me I’m a homophobe.

Influence, Gems and changing Servers

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Reanne.5462

Reanne.5462

How does this help the game? Anet would lose out on sales. It would just encourage players to event hunt more. Certainly would kill most zones as everyone would go to the Silverwaste. Then this would promote super guilds and hurt family guilds.

Events are not the only thing that gives influence, most things that players do together creates influence, except the LS and PS ( which I think they need to change also to promote partying up for those)

I don’t see how a large guild benefits more from people gaining influence than a small guild does. Influence gained is determined by party size, not guild size. I think a small guild would want to promote people partying up more, to maximize the influence gain for the guild.

Reanne.5462

You’ve explained why the players would want this. Now explain how ANet benefits from creating thousands (hundreds of thousands? millions?) of gems out of thin air and handing them out to players, where they don’t get any money from it.

How would that effect the gem exchange? How would free gems at such a volume effect their income?

A crack dealer gives his customer a free hit, knowing that they will be back for more.
or
Giving the players something, knowing that a happy player base is more likely to invest in the game.

as far as the gem exchange, I don’t know how that would react, I would think it would make gems less expensive to buy with gold, but still the same cost to buy with real money.

Creating gems out of thin air is not something that is a good idea for the economy.

Especially considering that you can outright buy influence.

the numbers I have stated take into account the cost to buy influence, you wouldnt’ gain an advantage by buying the influence then converting to gems.

Some interesting thoughts in this thread, so let me add another tangent of thought.

Setting aside the idea of transfering servers for a moment.

I believe if for every 7500 influence you create for a guild, you receive credit of 100 gems, would encourage people partying up in thier respective guilds, because of the bonus of influence gained when in a party, 10 vs 2.
This would give poorer players an option for aquiring gems, while building guild unity.

Reanne.5462

If 20g buys you 10,000 influence and 15g buys 100 gems then 75 influence is equal in value to 1 gem. (when purchased with gold) So I suggest that for every 7500 influence you create for a specific guild, you receive credit of 100 gems towards server transfer cost.

37,500 influence to transfer to medium server, 75,000 influence to transfer to high population server and 135,000 influence to transfer to very high population server.

Reanne.5462

Well let me add a caveat that the guild must be of a specified size, say 300 members or more. I realize having your buddy create a personal storage guild just to bypass the transfer fee is not what I had in mind. And I think waiting a month to transfer servers, if you can avoid the costs is not unreasonable.

It would still be abused.

People would join non-100% rep guilds to do it.

Servers would have guilds with 300 people who just never represent for recruitment purposes.

My original post takes this into account, you could not just be a member of a guild, you would have to rep that guild and demonstrate contribution to that guild, which the easiest measure of that would be influence created.
