Ok I asked these on mmorpg.com but couldnt find out why these things are not addressed in a game 3years old.
Is it just me or does this game feel like it’s not a full finished game? Granted I am new but here are things I noticed as a new player that has me wonder why an expansion is coming out when the game out now doesn’t feel done.
1.Jeweler doesn’t go up to full level like all other crafting
2. Legendary weapons, two handed sword has three, but all others only have one when two handed swords arnt even the most used. (https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Weapon)
3.Most 5 mans are not skill based but just gear checks its all stack on each other and hope not to die. Whats the point of being ranged if in every 5 man being ranged is pointless?
4.No trading you can only use AH or mail
5.When doing world bosses you must get there at the same time as your guild or you wont be in the same map. Whats the point of it being a mmo if you can be locked out of a map that your friends are in for being one or two minutes late.
Like I said I am new, but I have played almost all the MMO’s out there and I have to say after all the hype I find the game to be kind of a let down end game. There is a big lacking in most parts outside of it’s story. They do the story very well, but SWTOR did it FAR better IMO.
So what is it I am missing that makes this game ready for an expansion, it hardly feels fully done to me. It seems like the lack of damage meter is just to hid the lack of balance in classes to me.
Level 400 was the maximum before they added Ascended crafting. You can get ascended accessory from Laurels, or Fractals dungeons or random drop from World boss chest or get lucky during special events. However, winning the lottery in real life would be easier if your chars RNG luck is no good.
Only Ranged you can use in dungeons is Staff Elementalist. (most of the time).
No trading because ANET doesn’t want to deal with scammers and frauds report that would flood their support section.
ANET doesn’t want players to steam roll the boss with 10000 players on a single map and the amount of load from the server would be too great that it will implode.
You really must be new. 2 handed sword warrior burst out the most DPS if equip,specs and traited correctly.
3) Gear check? This game is one of the less gear based mmo out there. Stacking on top of each other is a bad pug tactic. It’s easier but less efficient. Pug like it, good player don’t.
Stop lying. Many LFG have gear checks and stacking is rampant. Unless you have someone put an LFG “No stacking, no skipping”
I have to do my own LFG for dungeons. Because most are “zerker level 80 AP 10k/5k EXP Ping gear”
Not all are like that, but the majority are.
I know there are non stacking ways to do dungeons, but most good players do with their close knit in-game friends, you won’t see them doing LFG.
