“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Desert BL’s are not good for WvW. Do not waste time trying to save an incorrect concept.
Someone on ANet map design department was given free rein to make the new BL’s maps but probably that person never played WvW.
The new BL’s are completely useless and they are not even beautiful…they are ugly.
In the end of the day, a lot of wasted money by ANet paying people to make designs like that.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
If you want to realize how WvW is broken transfer to a tier 1/2 server and see how much better is WvW there.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Any map with verticality will kill WvW.
Half of the classes have skills that involve jumping/rushing when attacking and if they are not careful they end falling down to oblivia.
The WvW maps should offer the same opportunities to all classes.

Adapting to costumers needs is what will make McDonald’s still be here long after GW2 is dead.
ANet can only offer the same burger again and again, with some small changes to the seeds over the bread.

How does one get addicted to this expansion?
I really dont know…maybe because they have a duller life than the HoT expansion?
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Actually I am pretty sure mounts will come soon or later because ANet will make millions from gems to buy mounts at BLTC.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
LoL…at least in SuperBowl you have opposing teams with same number of players.
In WvW you dont…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Verticality in WvW maps just shows us that ANet management and developers teams do not play GW2 except for very short trial runs to see if things look nice.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Gw2 is a great game but ANet has a terrible management team.
Give ANet a good management team and this game can reach new heights.

Uau…so much love and effort wasted while trying to convince ANet to fix WvW…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
WvW rewards are so bad that the only way of enduring it is to run with the karma/loot train.

Plasma weapons should be for free because they are kitten ugly.

GW2 has not a big enough player base to be a successful e-sports game…is as simple as this.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
GW2 will never be an important e-sports game…ANet is banging its head at the wrong wall…

Also GTA turns everyone into murdering thieves. C’mon, this topic is full of 90’s style mom outrage. We’ve moved on.
Yeah right……….. and we always move on after taking the next barrier.
When was the last time you took a look whats going on on this planet ???In the 80’s kids could play outside until nighttime.
These days they can’t go out alone at all.Do you think there is any connection to our times and always taking the next barrier ???
No.
One of the things people do is a whitewashing and glamorization of times past. But they had crime and murders. They had public executions by the state out in the open where all, including small children, could come and watch. They had lynchings where no one was punished and it wasn’t against the law to beat or sexually assault your wife.
There were reasons that children were allowed more freedom. One big one is that people had so many. A family might have 4, 5, 6, 7 or more children. 15 or 20 children to a family wasn’t unheard of or uncommon. With that many, it wasn’t unusual to lose a few before adulthood to disease or accidents. Most people now only have a couple of kids and you only have a couple of kids, you keep them closer than if you have 20 kids racing through your house. Another reason was lack of information. Nowadays a school shooting is known around the world. Then, it might not be known outside the place it happened. People hear more bad things from all around the world, and it frightens them whereas in the past they would never have heard of it.
I am not sure is should even answer.
Actually i don’t know where you grew up.
But i have never seen a public execution or sex assaulting wifes or people having 7 childs or anything you mentioned.
Beside that this is not the topic. The problem is that if we continue to lower standards, which actually exist to keep people descend, we will face a horrible world.Fact is that the kids in the 80’s had more freedom to explore and more safety in general.
Since the 90’s when people had the brilliant idea to remove anything that provided any stability or discipline the violence level in our society exploded.
In fact the 80’s were the only time when the USA remotely reached the quality level of the Scandinavian countries these days.
Right now the United States are at #15 even behind Costa Rica.
Strangely the leading countries have very strong standards when it comes to handling kids and safety or providing environment for children.Like i said…. these days kids are not even allowed outside alone or woman are told not to be out after dark.
It is up to you to rage about that.
But if we fail to reintroduce rules, standards or discipline we will face a horrible
reality every day around us.
A good start would be to keep kids away from alcohol, drugs and tobacco
plus rethinking what is actually entertainment.Just my 2 cents
+1.
The main problem is that a lot of people do not think about problems anymore…its easier to keep moving like numb ghosts towards the precipice…

Come on guys, HoT is old news…a lot of places sell it much cheaper now…in a few weeks ANet will be offering a big discount on it.

Hello all,
I know we have achievements for killing thousands of mobs/enemies but at least we do it in an environment of killing or be killed, its a survival thing.
Now, endorsing the consumption of 10.000 alchoolic beverages is something completely different.
A lot of young people sees this achievement like something cool and in their brains a few barriers will fall against bad drinking habits. They cant kill thousands of enemies or monsters in real life (for different reasons) but they sure can drink 10.000 beers.
I think a bit more care should be used when introducing this type of achievements.
Best regards.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Megaserver for WvW will be introduced really soon.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
It is so easy to create, lets say, 3 levels of guild halls from a small guild hall for guilds under 10 ppl, to a medium guild hall for 11 – 30 ppl and a big guild hall for guilds with more than 30 ppl that I do not understand why ANet has been so lazy about it.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
WvW rewards has long been one of the weakest points of the whole system.
ANet never learns…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Please BLOCK the spoilers and close this thread.
This thread is too embarrassing for the complainers and ANet itself.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
There is no hope for WvW…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Spoiling Star Wars?
Come on guys, grow up.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
The sad truth about WvW is that WvWer’s tend not to buy gems to get shiny skins.
A lot of the best WvWer’s out there run in outrageously ugly armor combinations, they never have a mini running after them and they do not show any signs of having wasted gems to buy any item at BLTP.
WvWer’s are more interested in the game mechanics than in the game aesthetics. So, they tend to be a group that brings little revenue to ANet.
That is why ANet invests all its resources to lure PvEr’s into the gem addiction leaving WvWer’s out in the cold.
Imho, WvW is the only part of this game that can be played without an end, is never boring and can really make people flock to guilds and make them grow to huge numbers. All other content is not good as WvW for GW2 future.
What ANet needs to do is improving WvW with the tons of feedback they have from players and, at same time, think about a way of increasing the need for WvWer’s to use the gem shop.
From the top of my head I can give ANet 2 suggestions:
1. Create different types of commander tags, with different prices. People pay several thousand gold for simple skins, why not paying several thousand gold for really useful commander tags with great large group management, messaging and tactical commands features?
Leave the existing Commanders tag as it is and create 2 lower level tags and 2 higher level tags. Maybe a Raider’s tag to command a group of 10 max, costing 100 gold. Then a Mercenary tag for groups of 20, costing 200 gold.
The 2 top tags could be a General tag to command groups of 70, costing 1000 gold and finally a Marshall tag to command groups of 100 players with a feature to directly draw tactical arrows on the mini-map for visual orders for the whole group, costing 2000 gold.
2. Create special outfits/weapon skins for WvW only, with useful features for the buyers but not game breaking pay-to-win features. Something like handy features to have in your group like Combat Repairs skin (armor repair for the whole group every 30 minutes), Combat Quartermaster skin (food buffs for the whole group every 30 minutes), Combat Bank skin (creates every 30 minutes a bank npc for the whole group), Combat Trader skin (creates every 30 minutes a BLTC npc for the whole group), etc.
Concerning weapon, ANEt can make special WvW weapon skins that identifies immediately a player WvW masteries like Trebuchet mastery, Shield Generator mastery, Siege Golem mastery, Ram mastery, etc.
This is just the begining, a lot more cool ideas can be added.
WvWer’s will only buy gems to get gold if they find beautiful and USEFUL items for WvW at gem shop. Come on ANet, put your minions at work.

PvE is ok.
WvW is dead.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
If you return you will get bored fast.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
You can buy them now.
You need the 2 favors (of the pavilion and of the bazaar iirc) which you can buy from the TP (bazaar is kinda expensive).
Then combine them (double click) and go to the sovereign weapons vendor which atm is in Divinity’s Reach up the stairs from the wintersday karma merchant, to the right iirc.
Thank you..:)
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Hello all,
Is it possible to get any Sovereign weapon skin starting now?
Or we need to have past items impossible to obtain now?
Please share your knowledge.
Thanks in advance.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
This game should not be used to accomplish success in life…for that you have real life.
This is a game to enjoy and relax. ANet saw the light and decreased the difficulty of Chak Gerent…good move.
For the hardcore gamers you still have the raids…enjoy them.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
OMG!
Go check them…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Bring megaservers for WvW and forget about the show-offs that use server pride posts for self-promotion fairy tales…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Yolomouse rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Nay.
GW2 doesnt have the right competition mechanics for e-sports.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Well, imho this set is below average with the exception of the whip.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
The OP just missed completely the point…
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Time gate crafting is the lamest thing ever introduced in GW2, specially when you can craft exactly the same level of weapons and armor without any time gate.
Time gate to craft some exotic gear is just poor design from ANet and should be removed.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
Bring back the old maps and give them a cosmetic makeover.
Red vs green vs blue megaserver because “server pride” means nothing really. Rewards only matter…
Ascended and legendary runes and sigils only obtained in wvw and eotm.
You’re welcome!
Fully agree…+1.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
A lot of people who bought the Commander tag are completely useless.
A lot of people that use the Mentor tag are completely useless.
So what?
Players know how to recognize a good leader, commander or mentor, the tag does not mean anything by itself.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
I don’t understand, why so much salt regarding Mentor tags?
A lot of people that payed 300 gold for a Commander tag now cry because we get the Mentor Tag with minimum effort.
“Blackadder: If you want something done properly, kill Baldrick before you start.”
ANet is probably working on a WvW fix using the megaserver system anyway.
They know WvW is fading away…
