Hope we see more "Finishing" in PvE

It doesn’t add anything for me, being a Ranger and at maximum long bow range, it’s a long way to get there to “finish” a mob.

Balthazar: Tips, tricks, and wisdom.

in Dynamic Events

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

From Rally WP to the Temple is pretty inconsistent, sometime the moral of the pact can just suddenly vanish very close to the starting area, without any clue why, sometimes it can disappear to about 25% and stay that way until the temple.

The whole thing is pretty uncontrollable.

Different people have different idea’s, and it’s difficult to get 20 or whatever random players to co-ordinate.

Healing the pact, does it work, don’t think so.

Take out Subjugators and vets asap, probably helps.

Stay close to the pact, but not too close, draw mobs away from the pact, that helps.

Keep up with the pact, if they go ahead while you mess with mobs left behind then your probably going to fail.

Get two pacts to go together, might help but difficult to co-ordinate, and I’ve seen two pacts fail just as quickly as one.

I’ve done Balthazar a lot, probably a couple of hundred time’s, and it’s the most unpredictable DE in the game, as far as I know.

I’m sure there’s a storyline or some lore in there somewhere, but I just run with the pack.

Infinite Gathering Tools modification?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Solid Gold.9310

£25.5 for 3 gathering tools in a video game who only work on 1 character.

I’m not sure if Gamers are incredibly rich or incredibly stupid…

Have to agree £25.50 for 3 gathering tools for ONE character is very excessive, if they were cheaper (And soul bound) they would sell more

The game is only £26.94 to buy from Play.

Items like this should be account bound, not soul bound.

Rangers were not welcome in dungeon parties in the early day’s, so I didn’t bother with them.

And I haven’t bothered since then.

Is it time to reroll?

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

I always play a Ranger in every game I’ve played, and only a Ranger.

6 years or so on GW1 with only one character, my Ranger, from beta testing to date on my GW2 Ranger.

But, this Ranger has me beat…………..

So, I’m going to level up a Warrior, I don’t want to, I’m not looking forward to it, but I’ve convinced myself to do it.

I’m not deleting my Ranger, I’m just hoping one day Anet sort the thing out, but we’ve had promises, then nerfs, then more promises and more nerfs, the pet is a disaster and I don’t think it will ever be any good of.

What do you guys hope the update will bring?

in Tower of Nightmares

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

“What do you guys hope the update will bring?”

Something that’s NOT instanced, open world content.

If they add more and more instanced stuff it just makes the game like GW1, and then you just get speed runs, farming and elitism.

Maybe could be done solo, or in a group, something that scales.

Error attempting to sell....

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

They don’t seem to want to comment on this “error”.

If it is for bot prevention, why would they make it look like a bug or bad programming ?

It is VERY annoying when you have 150 or so items to sell.

I gave up clicking “OK” after selling something as it doesn’t do anything (There’s not a choice like “OK” or “Cancel”), I don’t even understand why the OK is there, it’s just an extra thing to click, so I don’t bother and just move on to the next item, it doesn’t make any difference whatsoever to the “Error attempting to sell”.

And after you sell the first maybe 8 if your lucky items, then you get the error every 2 or 3 items, it drives me mad.

Colorblind friendly options? please?

in Suggestions

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

Bump. I’m not colorblind and some of the stuff in game is STILL hard to see, especially the faint-white outlines and the dull-red ones.

I’m not colourblind either, but find, in particular, ground targeting hard to see when there’s a few inches of water, it’s just impossible to see where you are targeting.

So I think there should be some options that would help colourblind people and maybe some of the rest of us as well.

What is ONE change you'd make to your class?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Solid Gold.9310

Solid Gold.9310

Ranger — Can now perma-stow pets. Gain the buff “carefree” while pet is stowed which increases the Ranger’s dps by 30-40%

I understand that half of the people want to remove the pets because they get in the way or w/e… however either way I think that without the pets, rangers really lose a lot of their uniqueness. I’d rather see them somehow improve pet functionality or control.

And also: 30-40%?… if they did that, who would EVER want to use pets EVER again? there’d be no point. and dont say “that’s my point.” They arent going to remove pets, ever, so we might as well support some sort of revamp or improvement. Dont you agree?

No I don’t agree, because I don’t think they will ever get the pet fixed, and the Ranger will always be shunned for parties and instanced content.

I prefer Nightinggales idea, it would make the Ranger a much more viable class, and welcomed in party events.

Really only one thing i want..

Rangers – Option to completely Remove the Pet.

Its a Ranger not a Beastmaster..

Longbow, no pet? You can do this as a Warrior with rifle or longbow.

But it’s not a Ranger is it, it’s still a warrior,, and you can’t use a short bow (Heaven knows why not).

Thief can use a short bow, but not a longbow (Again heaven knows why not) but it’s still a thief not a Ranger.

Just to be clear. I’m generally agaist such solution, but the amount of hate, trolling and other generally bad behavior on this forums is jut beyond ridicuouls.

Force real world last and first names on forums, instead of nicknames. It probably won’t shut up come persons, but at least most of people will think twice before posting something stupid.

Just no, that is wrong, people would get in hate mail in real life, be pursued on social sites.

“Shame on you all, tons of rangers are quitting the game becouse of your blindness.
Next Update October 15th will be last train for many rangers like me.
If you fail…simply consider ranger class died out”

You realize by now these decisions are set in stone right? So the class is either dead or it isn’t by now. While some changes are coming I hardly think you are going to get enough to make you really happy with them. Just a gut feeling.

Yes mate, I knwo myself there is no hope for ranger class
Just go reading ranger forums and look how many people are disgusted by Ranger current status.
Thx god new games are coming out..so..unless they do a good job on ranger..bye bye Arenanet))

Bit late here, but I also feel there’s no hope for the Ranger class, we are on our way out of the last chance saloon.

We were promised so much, only to be nerfed and nerfed again.

  • Player ‘sellfirst’ has 5 ‘items’ to sell
  • Player ‘you’ has 10 ‘items’ to sell.
  • ‘You’ opens the TP, prepares to sell his 10 ‘items’. The TP answers that the current highest bidder offers 2s for each.
  • ‘You’ keeps the TP open for another hours and goes afK.
  • During that hour ‘sellfirst’ sells all 5 of his ‘items’ to the highest bidder for 2s each.
  • ‘reqexp’ still requests 5 ‘items’ for 2s each.
  • ‘You’ ‘s TP hasn’t updated the latest info, still showing to sell 10 ‘items’. ‘You’ agrees to sell 10 ‘items’ for 2s each.
  • “Error Attemping sell”

you are too slow.

Why don’t they just tell us what it is, instead of us just having to post on here.
