Ascended gear are very easy to get. If you hit lvl10 in Fotm you have a great chance to get a ring or for some kind. you could have like in a week anough rings for almost all your alts. plus the dailies and monthlies give you anough for the neckpiece. the backpiece will be more of a grind. rest not so.

Ok want to hear a good suggestion since yours isnt as good. make it only soloble for the PERSONAL story line. after that you need people. That way you can play your story out and see the story. Also i want to add since people solo dungeons it will be easier then with a group and should get less loot. its like in the real work no effort no reward. Its weird that people get gold reward while doing almost nothing. example i hit the enemy a few times and run towards the next event. and i get rewarded for the event i was not even there when i completed it. personally i think that is not fair.
I like gw2 but some things have to be fixed. you run away from a event you dont get anything. for dungeon runners if you leave the rest of the group should not be punished. sometimes it happends we all teleport out. this is very annoying. only for this reason alone i could understand why people want to solo a dungeon. and i still believe people put loads of time in it. should be rewarded for the time spend there.
if you are a very casual gamer its allright it just takes your longer to get those things.
nothing wrong with this.

If the game added what you say about dungeons that drop better gear each time, then I’ll stop playing this game.

I don’t play traditional MMO’s because I don’t want to spend ages to get the gear that I need to actually do ALL of the content. Notice I didn’t say competitive. Just the ability to actually do the content and with enough skill, complete.

I’m wary of fulfilling the end of an agreement with a friend that if they tried GW2 during the free trial weekend back in November, that I would give WoW an honest try. Because I won’t be able to try everything the game has to offer, even if I wanted to. Because I won’t have the gear or the level required to do it. With GW2, a newly created character can do 95% of the content types. They can fight mobs. They can do DE’s. They can do hearts. They can PvP. They can go to WvW. The only general type of thing they can’t do is dungeons. Unless they come in during an event that has a dungeon that even newly created characters can do like the Mad King event back in October.

So why dont they just hand over the legendaries?
might as well stop now.
Besides that there is nothing much going for.
I liked the leveling the graphics the toon’s you could make. still all have same face
But i dont even get nicer skins for my efforts.
The world dragons are way to easy. I mean they look absoluutly stunning but they should be fearsome as well. not this easy. i dont get the forfillment when i kill one of these. i just wait for the drops and see greens and blue’s plus one rare.
Noone cares about the dragons or write about it.
Its there for getting a maybe precursor that is about it. no real enjoyment of killing it.
Even my little nephew can kill it. he just spams number 1 and its killed
Hopefully it will get beter and we see some epic fights with the dragons.
I like this game but there should be some kind of rewards. and who does p3 of cof anyone? it takes to much time and gives little to no extra rewards. this is why people dont do it. and why it is bad game design. iam sorry it has to be said. like loads of me write as well they dont need to change alot to make it tons beter as it is now.

No i wont stop, plus in gw2 you can meet up with more then 5people. that is a big difference. 5 people outside the town!!! ok its more like a dungeon crawler or some type. Maybe you should play TwoWorlds then. its about the same principle as gw1. meet with other people in a town and do something outside i thought it was up to 4 people. And no GW1 isnt a mmo. you can ask the developers and they will say the same. I missed in gw1 that i couldnt jump or swim. slide off a hill. but given the story was beter then in gw2. now stop putting those solo topics up its useless. I want to do something with other people. And not alone. its names guildwars for a reason. maybe you should make a guild and ask your friends to join your guild to help you with the dungeon if you dont want to play with other people. Please dont break the game.

dungeons should never be soloble. doesnt make any sence.
If you refer towards gw1 the henchies you will know that gw1 isnt an mmo. it was instance based. with tops 5 friends else you had the henchies. and later some heroes.
And if you dont like to make friends or talk to anyone fine.. please play a sp game skyrim.

HARDER Guild Wars 2

If WoW is hard 10/10, GW2 is hard 2, i’m just saying “make it hard 3”

About portals in LA, you’re right, I forgot to say “put WvW/mist portals also in the other big racial cities, as the mystic forge”, now i’ll edit it

Your right about the difficulty. its not hard at all at i doubt if anyone gets a sence of archievment. like i done this dungeon. Maybe at first but then its all to easy.
Would like bosses with a few mechanics you really have to do something.
Or put a hard mode in for the guys who want that stuff. for the normal people well the normal dungeon as it is now.

Both parties happy i say.
Maybe in the hard mode different gear drops (skins).

Also for the somewhat harder dungeons they hardly every do like CoF p3. they dont do that since that asked alot of teameffort. i guess you should put some extra skins there as well. for people to run that last one as well. now they think no not p3 its to hard and the risk isnt worth it. and they are right. why do it? the extra time. i dont see any casual or hardcore go in there with a pug. its Always p1 and p2.
Anyways i would like to see gw2 a little harder.

How are you supposed to get the precursors?

Posted by: Redbear.5910

Redbear.5910

The problem is indeed not the mats and 100% map completion its the precursor who drops. I hate casino’s and also RNG its the same thing. the casino wins and you loose.
Yes you could buy one with gems or farm the kitten out of this game. but farming is not rewarded. so why login for so long? dailies do like in 20min or less. I must do something wrong. i see like almost the whole server walking with legendaries. dont tell me they are that rare they are not. but prizes of precursor are insane high at least for dawn i think it was around 500g? how for a casual player should this be reachable?
If everything has to be casual why not give every casual player a legendary with karma?

The Top 10 Things GW2 Needs to Improve.

There isnt much of a grind to be honest.
as far as i know if you grind there are 3 grinds wich dont improve your character stats.
1. Legendary
2. your cultural armor
3. map completion?

Rest is not a grind.
Almost everything is given in this game. you can have in about in a week after your 80 excotics. sooner even if it is a alt.

dragons should be more fun then just standing next to them and kill them off
CoF p1 speedrun gets boring.
So we need more viarity this game (sorry if i misspelled)
More dungeons or more events who actually takes some effort to do.
RNG should go asap.
Some dungeons should drop only that kinda gear your giong for. its a grind but makes it more exciting to do. after you got all your tokens for your dungeon gear you are kinda done. and noone is doing cof p3 anymore because of this.
And i dont give a crap about those single players they cant get gear from dungeons etc.
I want to do some effort the single players can do the worlddragons who should be boosted in difficulty and gear! only drops from jormag or something. yes we need the carrot. because there are alot of people who and when they have the carrot they stop playing. This game has so much potential i see why people get dissapointed when they not grab the chance to be the best game at this moment.

Removing the severe RNG from precursors

in Suggestions

Posted by: Redbear.5910

Redbear.5910

Pst…here is a hint, the prices on precursors SHOULD go into the toilet hard. Precursors themselves should be easy to get your hands on, consideringt he rest of the legendary requirements is already a craptonne of grinding.

I don’t quite agree with you. The rest of the requirements don’t have to be a grind. If you take it easy and slowly build your way up, you will eventually get there. By playing the game the way it was meant to be played. However, the same cannot be said about the precursors. Due to the horrible RNG, you may never see one no matter how long you play. The only way to get one reliably at the moment is to grind for the gold. True, there is RNG with the T6 mats and the lodestones, but at a tolerable level. I get plenty of them when I play fractals or run the dungeon that has them in their chests. They are relatively easy to obtain over a long period of regular play. The same simply does not apply to precursors. Especially if you’re after a particular legendary.

Edit: By regular I mean normal.

RNG just defeats this game.
All the other mats are pretty easy to get.
The precursor is the hardest thing to get.
Unless your handy to get gold with flipping items and get Lucky on their drops. again RNG is not the way if you think otherwise you are just another fanboy to see this isnt working for this game in the long run.

I would be happy if RNG would be killed off ASAP (wont happen i know)
And the world dragons would be a challange and dont wait for their death. instead. So much hard work into those dragons and then it wont feel epic if you kill it.
More dungeons besides the 8 we running plus fractals.
I dont count F&F because its gone now.

So in about 2 weeks you didnt do anything in the living story? and last day you just want to make up for lost time? the bar was a good indicator (sunday) was the last day.
Even i know that would be it. agreed not the exact time but i knew it could be over any time. To bad to be honest it was a nice dungeon. only the drops kinda sucked.
This is a case of tough luck bro!. i guess you have to deal with it.

Top list for DEV team.

Hello Gw2 team,

I know your list is very long.
But still i want to tell its time for something to change.

First and most importent thing should be the Reward system.
This can come from dungeons jumping puzzles etc.
This should not be silver or whatever but skins you can show off you did this.
And its hard to get. Might give a little grief from other players who can not do it, but that makes it again special. now you have RNG who gives even more grief. so get rid of it.
So top and nummer one adjustment should be your rewards.

2nd, the flame and frost dungeon was awesome, we need more of that kinda fights, plus see number 1.

3rd
You guys made some fantastic bosses, but they just stand there and wait for your to kill them. Make em do something awesome.. let them sweat etc. I can not believe i can kill almost every epic worldboss by just standing there and autoattack.. And put in some awesome loot.

Hard work for getting loot is getting punished?
Why punish people for hard work to get something? They should be rewarded as they put their time into this game and they are your core fans.

I know alot of more issue’s but i think if you do those few you will make alot of gw2 fans happy.

For the gem shop. put something in there what is worth buying. example : weaponskins armorskins or pets or mounts with no benifit. drill is a good example of this.

I believe this will make the game beter.

Now i dont want to put in this topic only the negatives so here goes the positives.

Leveling system isnt broken so leave that alone.. very well done.
Little events are nice and gives good xp.
Area’s look amazing dont touch that for now

anyways i know alot of people complain and or suggest things and your list is awesomely long.

But i think you guys can pull it off to make this more intresting to do.
Would love to know what you think of this list.
thank you for reading this post.

The Top 10 Things GW2 Needs to Improve.

1. Trading Post Woes – No trading post on release coupled with no player to player trade system, TP when releases was buggy, Gem store transactions could take weeks to go through with no indication the order had been processes.
This is true. not gonna argue about this.

2. Overflows seperating players, friends and guilds from one another (The “Join Player” Option was bugged.)
Yes i remember this very well. kinda awefull but fixed.

3. Right click targeting and other funtions not being able to be rebound. (Still an issue)
Not sure what you mean by this.. but very well…

4. Personal Story bugs preventing progression. PS also refering to events the player had not done ie. Thanks for saving the skrit when you saved the quaggans etc. (Still an issue for some PS combinations.)
I was prob lucky anough not to have this issue.

5. Getting stuck in the tutorial area and not being able to progress.
Again i was lucky.

6. Bugged Events, Skill Points, Dynamic events (there’s still a few of these but it’s a HUGE improvement compared to release.)
Yes they were bugged not sure if they are still bugged. got my 100% mapcompletion

7. Game crashes and infite loading screens
Lucky me again.

8. Scaling issues on events (STILL a problem but you should have seen the Fire Elemental on release)
Yes this is correct. Fire Elemental was dreadfull.

9. Skills, Talents, Tooltips and Traits not working as described/intended. (Still an issue, but improved)

not sure.

10. Various game exploits. Often resulting in player bans (Though they probably deserved it)
no comment

Dungeon Difficulty: it's too hard!

in Flame and Frost

Posted by: Redbear.5910

Redbear.5910

Well believe it or not its not to hard.
But i do also think its a bit your character and proffession.
I do beter on one character then on the other one.
I see in most groups thiefs are mostly one shotted. and other leatherboys.
Not sure what causes this. but for me the character was or felt a bit clumsey. while in human or other ones i had less problems to move.

Anyways by my standards it was not awefully hard but nice to have.
If people find this to easy i hope they put a diffuculty in like in fractals.
And if you need some help add me to your friends list and we might do this together.

Good luck to all and have fun!

Number 10: Poor Advertising – 1:01 (not very importent to me at all couldnt care of the advertisement was bull.)
Number 9: World Vs. World – 2:54 (Yes i would love have a beter rotating system in WvWvW. if you at the top you always battle the same servers = boring = move servers)
Number 8: Loot and Magic Find – 5:27 (loot could use some improvement. expecially from dungeons)
Number 7: Personal Story – 8:22 (Good idea having the personal story effect your world your running in.)
Number 6: Dungeons – 13:48 (i think they made a great leap in the last patch. for me this is the way dungeons should be. but there is always room for improvement.)
Number 5: Guesting and Realms – 17:45 (yes would love to goto my friends in US and EU servers like in GW1)
Number 4: Events – 21:49 (they could use a tuneup. make it a little harder then stand in one position and kill it.)
Number 3: No LFG Tool – 26:52 (hmmm not really nessesary if you have friends. but i can see it can help a little to get quicker groups.)
Number 2: User Friendlyness: – 28:24 (i only miss the ingame support. like a ingame GM or something)
Number 1: Polish and Optimization – 30:47 (Yes a little more cleaner but imo they are getting there. compare to SWTOR they are way beter. i use SWTOR because the releasedate are about the same. WoW had like 10 years to polish. and GW2 about 1. not really fair is it?

I would like to the wishlist Housing on the PVE maps. buy pieces with gold or gems. Plus upgrades Guards. make this a piece of the dynamic world.

Dungeon was great indeed.
Not sure about the rewards, but this could be me ofcourse.
Would love to make a armorset wich goes with the gloves i got.
Wouldnt mind to farm the dungeon for that.

Off topic:
Would love to see the Big Dragons less static. Let them move a little more plus let the people sweat a little We love a little challange. TY again for this part of content.
Would want to see a little more closure. i seen the part. but still something is missing. or is it just me?

I dunno was a bit challenging in some places imo. And there will be some closure, after all there’s still one achievement left to obtain.

Sorry m8 didnt meant the difficulty in the dungeon. but outside the dragon like jormag and others. They look all really epic. But no challange to beat if you know what i mean again loved the dungeon in all hopefully this will set the new standard in GW2 dungeons to be made. If iam looking fussy its only because i want this to be the best mmo.

Almost forgot about something. Fractals. if someone leaves us to hang for the last boss. you are kinda screwed and have to restart all over again. please fix this. very annoying. Also at last boss if everyone died besides one and he doesnt want us to res and leaves us. we can not loot. not very accepteble either this problem should be addressed. thankyou.

Legendary should have stats according your build. You could use the point system in the stats like in gw1 … up and down.
Also a little beter stats then in the normal exotics. like a point extra.. like some say not to much shouldnt be way beter sword. just a tiny bit.

Back to the reward system. some drops of gear should have a chance to drop only in a particulair boss in a dungeon. this makes it more attractive to run this dungeon again for this part. this can be also to get a set. lets say you have to run all the first path bosses to get a set. and the 2nd set of p2 and so on. this makes it more rewarding to get a particulair set everyone wants. now days everyone runs CoF p1 because this is the easiest run. and AC i can not get in if iam not lvl 80 anymore. even my skills are good it doesnt matter. So please look into that.

For guilds. i would love to see housing. anywhere on the map you want. only they should be aware they have a few npc guards to guard their housing when they log-off.
Can be bought be influence. make also a little areana in there to challange eachother from the guild only. makes more sence to enter and join a guild.

Housing should not stop only at a guildhall but even a whole village if they have the influence to make it so.

This also makes the world more dynamic.
Besides wvwvw and Spvp another GvG should be possible. and team up with your friends in a SPVP. now i have to hope i can fight with them instead of against them.

get rid of the RNG system. it has been done before in example Aion. and it pretty much failed. it hasnt anything to do with putting your mind to it. its more a lottery ticket. i would want to suggest make a recipie for bs or other professions to make this kinda precursive. and then go on a scavenger hunt for the mats. this is duable. and people know what to do to get it.

Furthermore i would say more repeatble story-like dungeons (longer onces) to do like in the frost and flame. Btw why do i like the sidekick more then the plantman. i really didnt like he died. i just dont care for the plantman. kinda forgot his name because i dont like him much. imo i hope you expand on the story, it feels it still needs something extra. And i miss the cutscenes a little from the gw1 storyline you could repeat. btw i kinda hoped i could choose in the storyline to save my sidekick.

Well that was a whole list again thank you if you can put some in. I have some more if you get even further in the game for what its worth i think its getting beter since the beginning.

Regardless of your justifications of reasons for it devs – we NEED the old GW1 multi-profession unlimited free-build system into GW2 for it to survive.

It is currently a “pretty – but bleh” level MMO and certainly does not have a playerbase retainability factor attached.

Why break the BEST thing about the GW series?

Iam not really on with you on that.
I also played gw2, but iam not sure it was the thing it really gave it this long life.
Also it meant you could with ritualist solo everything. everyone knows this.
Iam pretty happy with the combo you can make now. and no, iam not play a mesmer nor a thief.

Iam with loads of the idea’s here, just not this.
For me they could tone down on the specticals here. causing lag imho.
And in WvsWvsW and big dynamic event they should adust this.
Even iam a big fan of fireworks.
The new dungeons are going the right way. but still need some work.
I mean give it more teamwork. wich is hard in some of the dungeons. noone plays path 3 of CoF because of this.
Also Bosses in dungeons need a machanic that people have to do something.
A kinda fase before you can nuke it again..
I also think the world bosses shouldnt be that hard for the reason of the casual player.
Dungeons like FotM should be more hardcore and should be more difficult then others. with a little and i mean a little beter rewards. This way you shouldnt be to overpowerd compare to the casual players. and i think they aim for that.
And instead of all the skills bring in more weapons we can use and combine. another way to solve your problem. wich imo isnt.

Would love to see how you self or your guild can influence the world in a big way.
Like make fortifications in the PVE world. and have your flag there waving. Means also your guild has to defend your little town/ fort.

WvWvW i really like to get rid of those vista’s in PVP. why? well i dont feel like hmmm 100% map completion or help people out? My believe those things are at home in the PVE world.

More puzzles like the madking tower. was supar awesome even i died like alot of times.
Maybe with a boss chasing you and you have to be on time to hit a switch or something.. only 1 has to make it for the group to succeed.

Ingame support like GM’s who can offer first aid help. might help you also in the loads of petitions people write on the forums.

Think of a way the need of the guild except in PVP / WvWvW. PVE doesnt need much need of a guild. maybe larger groups for dungeons may help.

Need for a special prize at the end when you make it.
You know people want a little grind imho. the need why they need to goto those dungeons.

Stats of the legendary.. make em one time adjusteble. like you did in the old GW. you could reset your stats and clik on a arrow up and down to adjust it a little. and make the legendary a little beter then the Excotics. And maybe also Legendary armour.
Who doesnt want to look cool and have a good looking sword to kill with it in the progress.

I dont know if it is there. but day light cycle? weather cycle?
Would be fun eh? in the winter you can run over the river while in the summer its time to get your shorts on and swim.

I think i have anough idea’s for now. again thanks for so far and i know you guys are busy to make this even beter.
