It is not LS Team’s fault/duty to handle with farm-grind behavior of players.
They’re working on the story and all the elements comming with it, not the overall concept of GW2’s endgame.
Most of Loyal player knows that world-mechanism has to be changed ASAP to get people off grinding. Not to be egoist, but in my opinion, I didn’t yet saw any post about the solution of this issue – other than mine dynamical territorry war system.

Thanks this post Mike.
You may could come up with a forum system modification where it shows that a Dev member did check a topic and marked as “Noted, Following…” – without cheating it.
Or any other notes/marks to topics
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Shapes will be introduced when Devs realise colors aren’t showing else than being “another” something.
Like it it’s a Siege squad, Main Force and Defender Squad
Until that, the community will make it’s own meta color myths.

@ Curae.1837: Firstly, thank you for the clear and detailed description of your request. It helps me a lot to be precise. It is made to be a traveller-inquest with a bit of necromancer taste. Hope you like it
- Inventor’s Sunglasses
- Heritage Mantle
- Soul of Koda / Profane Greatcoat / Seer Coat / Vestments of the Lich?
- Illustrous Wristguards / Wurmslayer’s Wristguards (for necroish)

Capes as Back Items aren’t a good call.
Who will suffer it? Rangers. The poor ones…
Including me
Capes are needed and require a New Slot.
Designed by self, but isn’t that bad if Guild does, just hurting the personal customization with an another strike…
And I do not care about clipping. GW1 did neither. It happens, and still better than a creepy floating kind.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
To be honest, I don’t like when we’re in the spotlight and become “the hero who saves the world with a littlefinger”. We’re ain’t gods, just successful & respected citizens of our race.
When this spotlight goes to tyrian Politics; connections, decisions, statements and all that kind of things will mean something, we would see the world Living, the happenings explained.
I don’t say it has to be so mutch at edge like in Skyrim, where you really saved the world ~alone and they jail you for stealing a cookie, not to mention they still look on you like the last homeless garbage – but at a well balanced state, just like I felt at this episode.

@ BabylonianSavage.7534:
You’re may new to GW2, but if you want to stand out from the crowd, you need rare pieces. The following months will prepare your future
- Monocle (TP item, get some gold for it)
- Twisted Watchwork Shoulders (You’ll be able to get it somehow), or Ascalonian/Marauder
- Marauder Jacket (rare piece optained only as lvl78 Personal Story reward)
- Noble Gloves (Craft/TP)
- Noble Pants (Craft/TP)
- Leather Shoes (Craft/TP)
Colors: Any of your like, I would make it Black+Red/Green/Yellow
Weapons: Whatever you like
At “Black Butler Noah’s Ark Circus”, I don’t really get what are you looking for.
Please be more specific.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
I forgot to mention the Plated Leather, not shiiiiny like the top ones, but more realistic and, for me, perfect for an archer.
These kinds I hope
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
You can. You just need to make a human. Falconer’s armor is basically a medium leather set with steel plates on the shoulder, chest, elbows, shins, thighs, and face. it’s not the best armor set in my opinion but the parts do go well with other sets.
That is only One set, which doesn’t fit my personality from any angle.
One set. We need like 10 from release, up to 15 in this past 2 years.

Well, the opposite at me. I don’t care about explorations, I care about Power, Money, Politics… and Family.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
I can just agree with the need of plated leather armors.
Or at least GW1’s Medium type armors (Assassin, Ranger, etc)
In early alpha pics, a promo thief used Heavy armor. Was nice.
With being able to use those skins as well, we all could look 10 times better.
I miss them so mutch!
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
@RP I literally hate every single post you make. …
About hundred blades? NO!
It’s your call. Y’know it’s not 1vs1 in WvW/PvP.
As a Ranger, you may know that you’ll be targeted first, so then, you just can have no enough defense… one will catch you, that’s sure. The only solution right now is to just get out of their focus and forget about you… until you strike.
So, literally you may hate my posts, but I’m sure that I’m right.

There always will be “Chess-Builds”, aka “Rock-Paper-Scissors”, it depends on the Player to reduce failing rate. And sometimes you have to run for your life… that happens.
What I see in WvW is that Ranger users are actually more smart and helpful, sometimes they even survive (with luck) longer than everyone else running on lazy “OP” builds.
When you get downed, who runs to revive you first? Ofc rangers! We know well how bad it is.
Our weakness seems to make us better Players.
And they can not nerf Players itself :P

The story could bear a lot of politics IMO.

“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
And really! Until now, it was just interesting, but The Dragon’s Reach: Part 2 won all my respect.
It actualy brings the Lore alive, and not making fun of it.
We meet nice people to have real conversations,
finally we’re not destroying the game maps even more
and we can do a unique bossfight instead!
Bonus: I’ve just found out how mutch I care about Taimi <3 !!
Her reactions was so realistic and cute, this character now had the eSoul!
I would like to say my Thanks to the team who made it, it was my first outstanding good experience of Living Story!
We hope the future brings same good episodes!
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
If people QQ after making Rangers even more close to a Competitive state, that would be the shame of the community…
Most of Rangers aren’t using Power builds, but BM, Conditions and Bunker instead.
So not using LB even.
We “Power Rangers” may have bigger amount right here, but it is because of our complainations, which seems to be heard right now. Admit it
With the upcomming LB buffs, I plan to drop QZ and get something useful to grab necks of foes – The DPS may would seem really insane with Rapid Fire w/QZ, but that still requires an ultility skill slot, which could be used more wisely, and don’t forget about QZ’s healing debuff, which is a really fair sacrifice after the patch, as it is now.
And yet we will been stunlocked under 100b’s 30-45k overkills and 2hit downed by thieves, taking mesmer damages in dodge or whatever annoys us mostly. Those are the real reason to QQ for, not our changes…

Guild Wars 1 Assassin Armors. All of them. Closely to the original concept, just HQ, just as good as Krytan armor been made.
I’ve played 7 years of GW1, and the main reason I’ve been keeping log in was the look of my character. And the people I used to speak with.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
There is an Elven armor post before, but I’ve checked the Hobbit pictures and came up with this below. It is the closest match but personally, I don’t like it. Because of the helms available in the game. Proper Dye will make decent improvement here.
Maybe you do like it
Medium:
Prowler Mask/Ascalonian/Zephyrite Helms, Illustrous/Marauder/Rogue Pauldrons, Falconer’s Coat, Falconer’s Gloves, Mist Walker Leggings and Ascalonian Sentry boots.
Ceremonial weapons (Sword, Bow)
Back: Quiver
Dyes: Midnight Rose, Gold, Midnight Fire.
Heavy:
Splint/Draconic Helm, Protector’s Shoulder, Priory’s Historical Breastplate, Tempered Scale Gauntlets, Avenger’s Chausses/Draconic, Avenger’s footgear/???.
Back: Quiver
Dyes: Midnight Rose, Gold, Midnight Fire.
GW1 Nika-like: You make my heart cry…
I want the GW1 Assassin armors back sooooo badly =’(
No helm, Whisperer’s Shoulder, Assassin’s Coat, Sneakthief Gloves, Sneakthief Leggings, Whisperer’s Boots/Sneakthief Sandals.
Dagger: I prefer Komalie’s, its sexy, but you can use Usoku’s Needle or Kenshi’s/Anton’s for this.
Back: Nika had none, only one seems ~fitting is Chaos of Lyssa.
Dyes: Blurple, Midnight Fuchsia, Brick.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
It’s not about the amount.
It’s about the currency.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
You’re right, things are being OverSized and OverDesigned.
Don’t worry. A big chunk of oversized weapon will hide your ugly armor, or vica-versa, meanwhile overdesigned things will drop your Community-Hub FPS by 50.
(Some tweak on automatic model-size adjusting would be nice)
After all, it’s so called “The Future of Fantasy”
R.I.P.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
I’ll be the Devil’s Advocate now. If you have 2 or 3 tag purchased, buy 1 or 2 more to get your full refound. Your problem is solved.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
There is a tough point in the design; How can be players admired to worth being a Commander or not? The current methood is really simple:
It is your 100g bet on yourself.
There is a key problem with this way, and it’s the type of currency. The Gold.
As prooven many times, money itself simply can’t make the decision.
>> You see rich people who act stupid and poor ones who make significant performance.
The idea of earning it as an Achievement is really worth thinking!
Now that AN plans to put it on 300g/color seems very ridiculous.
(I’ve came up with this before, just forgot to mention as OP)
Where is the trick? Let’s hope they just forgot to mention it will be like the new Traits; Unlock with gold or complete it’s challange.
With reasonable ones, I’m sure we would agree.
P.s.: I do respect PvE Commanders as well, there gone the Karma’s reward.
Without them, it would be mutch harder to defeat Tequatl or the 3 Wurms.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Let me say, I do “how I want”, with the exception of Rangers are yet weak (but I still manage through), and WvW is rushfarmed, that isn’t “how I want”.
Simply, I do not do anything I don’t want, even if it slows me down and cuts off whole contents (like very repetitive Fractials, PvP and WvW), but hey, I’m full of Ascended.
Myself is a proof of their right – from an angle – and even Ranger’s useability. Even if have to put x10 times more effort on the table to achieve that. If it, let be it.
True honor belongs to me, after all. Priceless
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
I’m storing a LOT of stacks of these, in Hope they may bring up somehting that I can spend them on. Not this new backpack, that’s sure.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
\\ For Devs:
There is or will be RAGE very shortly.
I would like to highlight things we’ve been discussed and learned in the last ~2 years about this ability. These are things should been kept serious and shouldn’t been forgotten;
Rule 1: No Gold. Abilities like this shouldn’t connected to e-Wealth. Having lots of gold does not prooves anything – due to that, it isn’t logical to make it depending on.
>> Solution: There are only 2 kind of “currencies” that can partly guarantee a player worth the commander ability. For WvW, I wouldn’t pick Badge of Honors, since those RNG based and unbalanced between EOTM & regular WvW. Instead;
- WvW Rank: Ahead of an amount (like ~300), a player spent enough time and effort to learn how things work.
- Karma: I believe, PvE commanders can get Karma to exchange it for, let’s say, a Million.
Rule 2: Free/Unlock Upgrades. Meanwhile some may say Commander ability should have it’s own leveling system up to X, or just free to select different colors of badges in time of need, one things is very sure; There shouldn’t be another 100-300g pieces for those.
I’m also sure AN does not meant to harm our strong efforts to make our raids/commandings working, so why to put a goldsink onto that?
>> Solutions:
- Unlock all badges to whoever has the commander ability. It’s about to enjoy the game, not to farm it out for social needs that doesn’t seem to be supported in the current design.
- Or sell the unlocks with relatively cheap price. ~500 Badge? Acceptable.
- Maybe really leveling it, let’s say, connected to Rank system (+point for it every ~100 rank) or something.
Rule 3: Support Community Efforts. It is YOUR key of success to make the product confortable for the users!
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Interesting topic.
All I expect from them is to make LB fire as fast as any other fantasy game makes to be.
Double the speeds as now would be correct.

I have Rox’s Quiver. Just want it Black
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Phalanx chest? Same good, more soft and stylist
Personally, I like the Whisperer’s on this setup more, but it’s your call.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
What I would consider is a fair offer.
Most of us bought pre-purchase and pre-orders double the price they sell these times, and those weren’t even giving those minimal kind items that you’ll get now at half price.
Upgrading would cost 2000 Gem, jeez.
So, what about to give some real care to those who was loyal, supporting from the beginning?
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
My big love is the foldable weapon types.
Even if it’s a compact sheating on a Longbow, a Longbow that folds to Shortbow or a Greatsword that folds onto a combat bow.
Yep, some cool animation would be better than skins that no armor really match for (ley!), or just have fat particle effects that annoys me (Corrupted skins for example).
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
@ Ryan Mozo.9581: “Well-dressed.” Can’t offer more than in-game, but a nice selection of fancy items will mesmerise anyone who passes by. It won’t be cheap…
Let me represent your Valkyrie!
Magnus’s Eye Patch / Barbaric Helm, Protector’s Shoulderplates, Whisperer’s Secret Breastplate, Protector’s Gauntlets, Aetherblade Heavy Legplates, Phalanx Warboots.
Dyes: Celestial, Charred & Abyss.
Weapons: Hero’s or similar.
Back: Light of Dwayna prefered.
@ nichol.3810: Well, a female warrior of human/norn.
I’m far from 40k, but from the found pictures (which ones have a wide variety…), this one looks ~close. Have a look
Magnus’s Eye Patch/Mask of the Wanderer/???, Burden of Koda, Aetherblade Warplate, Avenger’s/Ascalonian Gauntlets, Rampart/Illustrous Legplates, Paws of Koda.
Back: Blade Packs?
Dyes to use: Silver, Fog/Celestial, Abyss, Gold, Midnight Rose

It’s a problem with ROF, which will be improved by Read of the Wind “When It’s Ready!”.
However, the bad autoaiming will still fail your attempt for Point Blank Shot when a Thief/Warrior sticks in your face… Swap to melee.

@ Azarem.1206: Tried to get a nice fusion between Kudzu and a sexy armor that meets your request, with keeping the “fancy” level and avoiding agressive looking pieces.
Hope you like it
Vigil’s Honor Headguard, Vigil’s H. Shoulderguards, Illustrious Guise/Krytan Jerkin, Studded/Stalwart/Leather/Prowler/Heritage Gloves, Falconer’s Leggings, Vigil’s Honor Boots/Any rangerish of your like.
Back: Quiver ofc.
Dyes: I’ve used Emerald, Pastel Pink and Gold.
Proper Dyes make wonder.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
The balance notes getting Rangers closer to this concept. We’re heading the right path!
We’ll have see the velocity of improvement tho.
As mentioned for you guys a lot; Never lose Hope
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Since the original LA wasn’t designed for the amount of people used it (and AFK’d), it would be a bad decision to reconstruct it. We clearly need a better design in the future.
Let me say; AN does Listen & Learn!
The current map offers 3 main society hub, just like I’ve signed the need before,
furthermore, the NPCs are well spread. All they need now is a reconstruction of environment, where GW2 lore can bring it’s beauty.
I have some posts about this “issue”; https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/archive/suggestions/iR-Living-Breathing-World/first#post2533329
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
I’ve never seen LA as a complete, finished city. In my immagination, it were mutch mutch more interesting. Let’s hope the improvement will be more like Venice – than a pile of rock and a couple of ships sticked on it.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
(edited by RoyalPredator.9163)
This one is a nice topic. I would like to see less bulky/oversized weapons/armors too!
Realistic ones mostly. The fantasy style in GW2 went way wild… overdesigned.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
Underrated? No.
We just don’t get buffs, no help, no resurrect, aaaand it’s like we’re not there at all.
I’m only getting helped by random Rangers and friends of mine when I’m not a commander.
Our damage is low, no real bursts, no good conditions, no mutch interrupt, no stuns, autoaiming is just bad and our pet dies, there goes our damage…
The upcomming patch will help a little, but it’s still far from a competitive espectation.
“A man chooses; a slave obeys.” | “Want HardMode? Play Ranger!”
@ Carpboy.7145:
It was an interesting request, I wouldn’t use Eembriodered Pants for a battlemage, but managed to get an icy-sharp mix by using the elements you like.
Wraith’s Masque, Sorcerer’s Eqaulets, Phoenix Vest, Sorcerer’s Livery, Embriodered Pants, Masquerade Boots.
Fitting Backs: Holographic Shattered Dragon Wings, Ligot of Dwayna, Fractial Capacitors, Wind Catcher.
Try: Sky Dye.
I hope you enjoy this one

By “straight sell”, we ask for ex. Permanent Hair Style Kit for ~2000 Gem amongst the GemStore’s Service tab. Not to convert $$$ to gold then buy a 3000g+ item, which is like $300, not $25 or what. (I’ll edit these values later to be correct!)
AN’s Game Monetization Manager aims us to spend our half income in hope we get something with RNG. I don’t belive in this, neither most of you.
RNGods were never favored me…
We should buy BL Keys every week/month, and if a special thing drops (let’s count in Precursors and all the TP Value stuff), we’re lucky and inspired to continue this habit, maybe even more.
I would make it a fair gamble, where you surely get ~75% of your cash “back” in any form.
Many of us live in less welthy countries, EU has huge differences, I think even NA does.
Prices should been synced for region. Make that happen.
