Guild Wars 2

dont think this will be back cause total useless

Nowadays the comunity managers have a new thing and let big comunitys work for them. They meet 1x per week (or 14 days?) in big comunity ts with leaders from Comunitys or big guilds for 1 hour and let them tell all the problems they have.

but again – its just marketing^^

they could add it easily to the archievement skin window so every character can take it endless

would be nice for harvesting tools, all permanent contracts, salvage tool, this lion arch teleport scroll

Evan, the patch spectator mode was released you guys added the 2 arrows so people can choose the side they want (blue, red)

just remove this 2 arrows and add only 1 button JOIN and its “random join” only and when someone go from game to spectator mode than disable for him the “join” button for this match

simple – problem fixed^^

this Knapsack is sooo full of useless junk^^

1650 gems? i would not even buy this for 500gems

like title says

the +5 agony infusion is account bound after crafting and this has to be a bug

cause all other work like it always was

XGhoul.7426:

Still amazes me how a build with 0 stunbreaks causes so many problems.

because its hard to cc someone when he cc you forever

it is rly annoying to see this people here always jump on everything with stupid arguments like “geargrind qq” and “dont play it” ….. seriously

noone said PROGRESS have to be geargrind

just look in wvw they addet the wxp system – this IS progress and no geargrind
look in spvp this ranksystem – this IS progress and no geargrind

so to just bring 1 simple system to explain wtf i talk about:

bring HERO lvls for pve and you can lvl this only with doing things in pve

• easy repeatble things low pointz
• hard things a lot pointz

like
for the simple things:

• 1 dungeon/fraktal compelte 10 hero point
• 1 temple event/worldboss 1 point
  for the special things:
• liadri archievment(there have to be more than like this) gives 500 pointz
  other special things:
• 500 points on wxp lvl 1000, pvp rank 80, Archievement 10000 …..

now for this they could sell things for this pointz like precursor 5000-10000 points
or recipes, minis, homeinstance things, maby gems?, ….. stuff like this

or make it a lvl system and give 1 hero lvl all 5000 points and bring something like this wxp traits but for pve ……

• like lower waypoint costs,
• +5% extra runspeed out of combat(add to the 25%)(works not in wvw or pvp)
• gems?
• special armor or weapon skins
• precursor?
• whatever
• different spell colours or soundeffects

i just typed random ideas and numbers jsut to say progress has nothing to do with geargrind

bye

So… achievements then? We have those, thanks.

no not archievements – you even read?

or is wxp system in wvw or rank system in spvp archievement too?

it is rly annoying to see this people here always jump on everything with stupid arguments like “geargrind qq” and “dont play it” ….. seriously

to make it simple

a game need to be PLAYED not WATCHED like a movie – 20 years ago the genre “interactive movie” failed and it feels bad that arenanet reduce gw2 all on this

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Odinius.9826:

I have a severe case of Packrattus Extremus and tend to hold on to stuff from events instead of opening them.
There is an egg collection in there and am still sad that my “Tassi’s relay golem” said poof when I recently tried to use it it used to spawn the golem which then had a small spoken dialog.
Still, Im not rich though

see so much you could make gold with so dont understand why not rich

alone this 750+ skillpoints is more than 750 gold^^

How are Skill points Gold?

transmute t1 → t2 mats (finematerial, wood, cloth, ores, leather)
you need 1 philospher stone per trans and you get 10 phil stones per skill point

you just need to find the material with biggest difference (t1 to t2) in tradepost for most profit

1g or more is normal per skillpoint (10 transmutations)

Esplen.3940:

Dungeon rewards are time gated to once a day.
Additionally, the final reward exp is 70% of your current level, so unless you’re actively participating in the runs, you’re not guaranteed a level.

the exp is not time gatet and even with only 70% per lvl it is much cheaper than to lvl from 1-80 with profesions

Mighty Assasin.3816:

Craft Potent Master Tunning Crystals/ Potent Master Maintenance oils/Potent Superior Sharpening Stones.
Required money to start: Recipe + 10g.
Assuming you have 400 crafting which is cheap to get.

they are not worth to craft – there is no profit and most time you even lose gold

you dont need 2500 gems – maby 700-900 is enough

lvl character from 1-30 with crafting and than go buy ascalon p1 runs for 1g – 1g50

its 1 lvl per run and you jsut need to go in and pay the seller and he kill boss and done – 1 minute per lvl

so all you need is maby 80-100g – much cheaper than crafting

edit: when you have allraedy lvl 30+ character on this account than you can open lvl tool with this lvl 30+ character and than log on lvl 1+ character and join instance you wanna lvl

sparc.3649:

I have a simple solution though, it would require ANets participation!

Make DEFENDING just as rewarding as OFFENDING/KTRAINing!!!

Then we can ALL be happy!!!

no – because defending is tooo simple in this game

and for the EOTM problem – they rly should remove Arrowcarts on this map cause map is not designed for this and Arrowcart-AOE jsut absolut op

green and blue keep you have only 3 gates you can attack and this is to easy to defend – there are no walls you can open from range and in blue keep you have even to sit in small chokes when wanna open a gate and the kittentiest clicker can farm your zerg with an arrowcart

sry but thats absolut bad design

you dont need 49 for this – most frac skins and most armor + wep chests i got from lvl 11

and i dont think anyone can solo fraktals – when they would sell it than this would be people playing iwth a group till end and than kick everyone

sry but i hope this will never be a normal thing

noone said geargrind and character progress is a lot more than jsut geargrind

even the wxp system in wvw is progress and wvw would be dead months ago when people could not have this lil bit progress
or ranksystem in spvp is progress too

and skyrim had only some hours story everyone did it in first 10-20 hours and than was the game all about exploring and character progress + new characters for different builds

Seera.5916:

I personally don’t have a reason to get one. I can’t afford to buy gems and don’t have enough gold to turn into enough gems for a node let alone the home instance stone.

And even if I did have a few nodes, I likely wouldn’t need a stone at all. It’s not that expensive or long to enter the home instance.

Game-Evolution can´t stop cause you are poor

in mmo games characters need PROGRESS – thats most important thing ever
but in gw2 they total ignore this and stop at lvl 80

all other content they have or have addet since release in this game to play after lvl 80 would be called in other games “Filler Content”

and cause someone wrote it^^ – no, story is no content

best in gw2 is the lvling from 1-80 and to equip the character + all traits and after this there is nothing

thats why i have 31 characterslots iwth over 20 lvl 80 chars – playing a characte on lvl 80 in this game is just boring

and to bring some progress in this game they could add:

• more infusions like this + 1 agony infusions with + 1 power, + 1 condi, + 1 critchance … and so on and let player decide how much work they wanna put in (2x+ 1 infusion gives 1x + 2)
• the new back item is something alot people has fun to work for so bring with this new armor or weapon skins and add this to content like Liadri

free accounts that can play tournaments? soloQ and teamQ?
plz no – there would be soooo much trolling^^

and just for hotjoin? I dont think this would be good promotion for the game

Ariella Goldstein.3562:

My eleven year old has started to express interest in MMORPGs, she says she wants to play WoW, but I keep thinking she might enjoy GW 2 better.

Any thoughts/advice?

could be to old for GW2

tolunart.2095:

I miss the days when people played games for fun…

But, yeah, pressing the other buttons should produce an equally large piece of cheese.

that was before the “Facebook Generation”

yesterday was facebook not even 1 hour down and some people in america called police^^

@op

you wanna have the right to play how you want – you say you enjoy to play ranger and so you wanna have the right to play it

so my question for you: whats bout the rights from the other 4 people?

What when this people dont enjoy to play with a ranger in group? What when this people dont wanna play with a ranger in group? Have this people the right to play how they want too? Same as you want it for you?

you sir is the guy who is selfish here – not the people who are kicking you

make your own group as a ranger and find people who dont care to play with you or with a ranger and world is fine

bye

sad part is they have new tooltip changes every 2 weeks for months now – seriously – how slow they are?

this is work for not even 1 day and only 1 man is enough but arenanet need months

deathshroud autoattack and lichform autoattack with power is much more op than mesmer gs auotattack – both scale tooo much with power

sugggestion – make necro autoattack in deathshroud same like mesmer gs – no dmg when near and most dmg on max range

bye

Charming Rogue.8071:

The droprate is way too low for this thing Kind of a big joke because it only drops for 2 weeks. I can only see the price going up.

its because arenanet dont want you to get it – they just want you to buy keys – its a carrot

not worth the money

atm 900 gems is 112g
i have to pay 3s to port to the wp in front of my homeinstance

thats 3696 teleports before its worth the money

when i think i was per character 1-3x in last 2 years in this useless homeinstance than no, its not worth and just a waste of money

Children of Bodom, Hatebreed …….. sometimes just GOA

Xli.7629:

last 3 days i been dropping from 55% win rate to 45% now.

all the horrible noobs in my team game after game.

with no help from anet, we should help ourselves

all pvpers should show these noobs what they so called “toxic” attitudes so they know they are not welcome here and can either stay in hotjoin or pve.

sry but 55% is hotjoin lvl when not worse and all this bad people are in the correct spot

2 quality tips for you:
when you wanna leave this 55% range than just press buttons
when you dont like soloQ than dont join soloQ

Esplen.3940:

To name two problems:
Permanent Mystic Forge isn’t account bound.

What if players equip 7 Account Bags?

would be no problem to make mystic forge acc bound – its jsut a number on server

and the suggestion with accountbags is they are not like your normal bags – they would be extra bags like in this screenshot i made
http://s1.directupload.net/images/140730/4dtod2sp.jpg

and rightclick on “1” pop the ACC – bags or close it

hello

now with teleport to homeinstance we even need this more – i will not buy this item for all my 31 characters but i would do it when i could have it on all of them

so my suggestion is “ONE” of this points: (you can choose)

1. Give all my characters a copy per permaitem after i use and bound it(same as golembanker)
2. add USED perma items to the menu on top left
3. Bring an ACCOUNTBAG (with right click on the bag on top left on screen) with 10 slots where i can put in items i wanna use on all chars (even minis)
4. Make accountwide items like you did with the pvp finishers

*permaitems i talk about is: perma merchant, perma bank, perma mysticforge, perma hairstyleguy, perma axe/pick/sickle,perm lionsarch/airship teleportthingie, homeinstanceteleport ……. and all the other things i dont remember

thx for your time

welcome to germany

BLUna.7928:

We had over 400 teams and 2,000 players signing up for this one event, so obviously something is being done right.

2000 players and only 1600 viewers?

wow^^

it this lopez guy the same from wow arenajunkies? Everyone on arenajunkies laugh bout this guy – just asking^^

“There is a reason why ArenaNet labelled it a “game mode violation””

They did? :O Where?

lol he talk bout the EULA and how you guyz talk to your enemys in wvw and dont play the game how it is designed

he dont label GvG (lol) as “game mode violation” he label your activity and how you guyz play wvw with this

but hard to understand ey^^

infantrydiv.1620:

Zirith.6429:

the rating system is a bell curve, as you get a higher rating you find less people with that rating and therefore win less points and lose way more, so unless they maintained a 75% winrate everyone above you has gone down due to less people to play against so the maximum achievable rating has also decreased. Since you were nearish to the top of the rankings (~15 win streak from first) and due to the significant reduction in the player base, your rating which was inflated due to a larger population is now much higher relative to everyone else that has to play in a more restricted rating range.

Please show me some statistics that show that the community is now exponentially smaller than it was two months ago, I’d love to see them.

just go mists and you see it yourself

its a megaserver (complete NA or EU) – mists now looks like the mists before the megaserver patch

dont overspend your gold for the “Jeweller” Patch

when this patch brings only trinkets, to just bring jewller to 500 like all other, than you will not make big profit cause most people have complete sets allraedy and this on all twinks.

and just for lvling jeweller to 500 everoyne has everything in his bank allraedy

jeweller patch you will only make “good” money when they bring something other than trinkets only

like infusions
somethings like orb + other material to craft +1 power infusion and add up same like the agony infusions

2x+1 to 1x+2

when they not bring something like this than jeweller patch will make alot people lose money^^ – its gossamer patch than all over again – tooo obvious even for the casuals and everyone invested in the same things

guess they tested skyhammer how they presented Tequatl-Release (arenanet live vs tequatl could not make first 25%^^) . Invited all the Arenanet people and noone has clue whats going on and spam buttons on eachother.

After knocking with some random spells down the boss they said this is fun map and has to go life

guess thats how they tested skyhammer^^

uberkingkong.8041:

Rolyate.6753:

Phantaram has 2 accounts and was established an all-star very early in the game, thus if you did not follow PvP at that time, he will seem like a nobody.

Ya I remember way back then, team legends or whatever.
NA beat EU.
I remember supcutie as the Mesmer and I’m pretty sure phantaram was EU Mesmer because I don’t remember him from NA.

I wouldn’t mind if they made stunningstyles an allstar, hes really good and I hardly ever see him in any of these tournaments. Since everyone is like ‘wtf no guardian’.

If you ask me, there should’ve been an option ‘type in players name’.

Not sure if these guys that made this tournament are from USA but in USA when you go vote for a president they give you options but also give you an option to write in some random persons name that you think is best.

Also I was thinking, I think it was Caed or someone else but somebody said ‘Everyone knows me in pvp but when I leave hearts of mist nobody knows me’. Well just thinking if they did leave an option for you to insert name, I wouldn’t be surprised if some WvW commander or somebody that PvE’s came in and was considered a pvp allstar rather than some of these guys. There is a lot of good WvW and PvE players out there.

Also the fact that active PvP community is like 3000 people, due to streams not getting that many viewers. Than you got the PvE WvW community like 300000 people.

I’m sure if some Allstar PvE WvW’er was in this tournament there’d be an increase in viewership. I’m on JQ server and I don’t pve wvw that much but there’s a commander named cloudfly, hes pretty good and people know who he is and he leads massive zergs to victory on jade quarry. I’m sure if he was on the all star team he’d lead a massive zerg to watch this all star game.

phantaram is no mesmer he playes ELE and he played in team paradigm (later Team Curse) with Xeph, Teldo, Azshene and Symbolic and it was first and only gw2 team which got sponsored

silly thread

mrbig and uberwahtever – why you tha not just join teamQ and ignore soloQ? and let the people have fun who like soloQ?

rly – noone need you both there and noone force you both to play it

Liewec.2896:

it must have took some digging to find this, but totally worth it, bravo!
so did this “hotfix” ever actually happen?
and if so does that mean there was a point were skyhammer was even more intolerable?
:O

this fix was an placebo

best is: “to skillfully aim knockbacks”

lol good necro thread

will be merged with the 999site skyhammer thread and finally has arenanet tag^^

dont believe this results

1.) everyone and there dog voted for blu – im sure
2.) no way people voted for this full team in eu

alot ip resets in last week i guess

i liked the old one more – it was simple and everyone saw when site pops up how it works

now i clicked a bit in this wiki thinige and could bot find any build

you shoudl change it back to the old one – it was perfect and maby make a button somewhere for “Add builds” to go on this wiki thing

and best on old one was it show only the best builds^^ not like all this other build websites where all clowns can post builds and noone find ever the right thing

Most of the builds are in the “Trial” section, this is where they are being discussed. They will later be moved to the “Testing” section where people can rate the build and thereafter it will be moved to Meta/Great/Good based on it’s rating. Clawn builds will most likely get a bad rating and won’t be shown on the website after the testing phase.

most users dont care to discuss all the random build that will be posted and it will be spammed by every random joe who wanna post his build^^

you should do both

the old site should be main site and your discuss wiki thing you shoud have acces to with a button on top

maby with registered users only and thumbs up or down on builds and this builds go on mainsite^^

anyway – for me old site was perfect – new i dont have any use

i liked the old one more – it was simple and everyone saw when site pops up how it works

weskay.9217:

To those that disagree with my original post, like someone else mentioned above, it does feel very Saturday-morning-cartoon-like. Obviously, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I just feel a bit confused with the story vs. the emotion/tone. The story itself is quite dark but the tone that comes with it just doesn’t quite suit it. Simply put, it’s like I am watching a horror or thriller movie only to be dubbed with the Saturday morning cartoon voice over.

wait for livingstory 3 – than this npc will even sing like they do in disney movies^^

before game was released they said there wil be a team working permant on events and every month there will be new events somewhere in the world on maps and we would not even know they are there until we find them. So people could explore the world and find everytime something new.

why this got reduced to this living story thing?

seriously this 2 week living story updates dont feel like a living world – it is just a archievement hub and played in 1-2 hours filled with annoying NPC´s talking on a disney lvl

watching gw2 pvp is like watching soccer on fast forward

game to fast for the cluttered info it provides

there will never be much viewers for gw2 and so will never be e-sport

only chance would be some castbars so all this different animation infos could be somehow compact and clear to read
