Race size, what impact does it have?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Subutex.2416

Subutex.2416

Size doesn’t matter for PvP or at least shouldn’t matter more than class, role, etc. Also there’s an option, I believe, that allows you to see all PvP players the same despite the race.

No UK dedicated servers I believe. Servers with EU flag speak english (mostly), while the specific ones like Germany and France have the respective flags.
Like Adaephon said, your home server only matters for WvW. By checking the first link he provided you can see how well servers are doing in WvW.
At the moment it is:
1st Seafarer’s Rest (EU)
2nd Kodash (German)
3rd Jade Sea (French)
4th Desolation (EU)
5th Far Shiverpeaks

You can see the rest of the placements there. Aurora Glade is the 16th.

You’re not the first one to suffer from that recent “improvement”: Rare Staff for 70g

And not the last one…

That sucks. :\
Once I got a level 78 or 79 exotic GS from the Mystic Forge daily that was something like 2g order value, 19g seller’s value. I found it really weird since the sigil was crap and the skin was just some regular Etched, however I listed it for 19g to see what happened.
The next minute there were already some listed for 3g on top of mine but I decided to leave it there just because. Thing is, it eventually sold when I had totally forgotten about it! My guess is that some players with lots of gold, buying huge amounts don’t always double check the listings.

70g however is a bit too much, I suppose. :\

Of course so is what they did not saying they acted correctly by kicking her out.

But that’s what this thread is about. This mechanic allows for people to do this and it shouldn’t, he should not lose his instance progress.

Its like your car breaks down and you need a lift to somewhere but when someone offers to take you, you tell them to get a different type of car. (not a perfect analogy since naturally those 3 benefited from helping him more then someone giving you a lift would benefit) but still they’re helping him out and without help he is likely stuck. Why should he be entitled to any special treatment? (demanding stuff / Untouchable)

He would still be able to choose if he wanted to go in that car or not with that person (unlike LFG system) and it would be perfectly fine and normal if the driver went on his way leaving him behind. Picking him up, driving him all the way back to where he started, then leaving him there is not alright.

He could still chose to not use the LFG tool at all or even to leave the party. Also they didnt drive him back anywhere, they simply told him to get out once he acted in appropriately which is perfectly fine. Its the nature of the game that when you get off you’re sent at the start, not the action of the players themselves.

Did you even read the part where he duoed the instance until Lupi and was kicked by 3 jerks who joined him after, who didn’t do kitten?

From what I understood and what I hope is that one will have enough points to unlock those things.
The reason I brought up the legendary example was because they didn’t get anything (because they didn’t lose anything), so that seems to be the way ANet deals with these issues. If people complain enough, they might get a title lol

I never really liked having condition damage on a power build because it was paired with precision or power, or when I wanted ‘n’ trait. The new system sounds fine to me, going to wait and see.

3 people join, 2 ele & 1 necro all under 3k ap, I let them know that I really don’t feel up to teaching the run this late at night and can they bring heavy armored classes…

Doesn’t seem very nice nor helpful to me. On the other note, he could have invited a guildie as a spot holder

OP also stated: "We posted LFG asking for experienced players as in 3k ap or more. "
Not nice is joining a party asking for requirements you don’t have.

When that +300 Vit trait came out I was just learning Berserker guardian and to me it felt compulsory (used it on every build I tested). Once I tried the Meditation DPS build for PvP I was shocked by only having 14k HP and felt it was wrong, thought I wasn’t going to stay alive most of the time, but as I tried it out and got used to it, I never noticed my HP again. It really is as advertised, all about active defenses.

It is not a.net’s fault your native language is not supported by the game, yet I do not see the portuguese or any other minority community starting a kerfuffle about it.

If you consider Brazil and other portuguese speaking countries, it is not a minority (having more speakers than russian and japanese). I am portuguese, yet I totally understand why it is not supported by the game.

Of course more language options are a good thing, but sadly we just can’t have them all, especially the least spoken.

Players with Titles: YOUR impression(s)?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Subutex.2416

Subutex.2416

Overly boasty “look what I’ve done!” titles. I don’t care that much for other players’ achievements. I don’t begrudge them their titles, but can’t help to always feel a little sad for them. If someone displays a title because they think the world needs to know that they achieved this or defeated that, it just comes across as a little sad. It’s like meeting someone wearing a t-shirt that says “I’m the best in bed”.

What’s so sad about feeling proud? And I don’t think there’s a single title in this game referring to such a low character statement as one’s sexual performance.

  • Suggested title: Grand Master Crafter. Level all 8 Crafting skills to 500. I’m looking at you Jeweler and Chef

The Grand Artisan title kind of works for that and I love it (using it on my mesmer because it has that masonic feel to it haha), but yeah, if you are lucky enough you can get that one without any crafting, personally I crafted almost every piece of armor but got my last ascended chest armor from the A Light In The Darkness achievement.

My favorite so far is The Blazing Light because most my characters are the bright and glowy type and killing Liadri back then was quite the achievement for me.
I dislike and never use Dungeon Master because people can simply buy it.
Silverwastes legendary monsters’ titles are some of the best (in terms of coolness) but lack meaning because it’s just another effortless title.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but as far as I remember the old version of this glitch made other players see the eagle animation and not the ranger player himself. Now it’s the other way around.

Subutex.2416

Unlike many posters here, I don’t believe this decision was meant to remove WvW content from Legendaries, it was made because in some servers it’s really hard for players to get WvW map completion, making it unfair to that crowd.
Claiming that they should now remove PvE content from legendaries is a whole different thing. You still need the Gift Of Battle, but you can get that without setting foot on the mists (unless to buy it).
I believe that both WvW and PvE content should be required for legendaries, so one solution would be, like I commented before, to remove non-WvW sources of BoH.
If your problem is that you’ll get less unexperienced players to kill and boast your self-esteem, it is completely selfish.
If the problem is having less players being introduced to WvW, ANet could go for a whole new incentive system.
Trying to get completion because you need it and being run over by a zerg or instakilled by a roamer by surprise may do more harm than good in terms of incentive.

Other changes I think should come from this: Remove BoH rewards from sources that are not WvW (with an early warning, of course), so that WvW is still part of the Legendary process.
Give some real good incentive so players want to try WvW instead of having to.

Waiting for weekly rotations and simply going after POI’s, Vistas and SP’s when available is not quite doing WvW either. Running over some unexpecting player is not quite a fight.

“Ah the whiners”, you guys are so full of yourselves.
Think of those servers that are less active on WvW, it’s way harder for their players to do WvW completion. It’s a matter of justice. Although I’m on SFR I totally agree with this change.
