Guild Wars 2

Welcome to the rewards imbalance. We have ask and ask but are not able to get a reply based to why the wvw badge weapons are treated like karma weapons. It was not as annoying until the recent wardrobe change at least before then we could transfer expensive upgrades

I love running hammer in wvw and spvp. My main complaints with the weapon is that it is slow and that skill five roots us in place.

I doubt anet will speed the AA chain up. But maybe a change to hammer five?

I frequently will select judges intervention to blink after a retreating foe. Does anyone think it would be to overpowered to add a secondary function to hammer five that would allow us to shadow step if we hit five again while casting hammer five. Anet could treat it like our torch and add an extended cool down if we are forced to shadow step secondary function otherwise it would just activate as normal. Thoughts?

Great thing about the game. If you’re bored you can take a break. It will be here for you to play when you come back.

Mungrul.9358:

I’m the guy who suggested swappable stats on Legendaries in the first place.
I don’t play any more for numerous reasons.

However, I honestly think changeable stats should be rolled out to all gear.
It’s a gameplay mechanic and a way to streamline and enhance the user experience.
Commodifying such things is one of the major reasons I stopped playing this game.

Putting barriers in the way of the optimal experience is monumentally stupid and short-sighted game design.

So when we log in for the very first time we should all be given free weapons and armor with maximum stats and stat swaps. This way everyone is equal. Then we can all do nothing all day but stand there and talk.

I doubt you were the very first even if you were it doesn’t make you right. This game I’d already the easiest game in existence. Even ascended weapons are easier to get then they should be.

I have way more ascended weapons then I do legendary ones. And even though this would make my own life so much easier I am against it. This isn’t the first of these entitlement threads and it will not be the last. But this will be my last time responding to this one.

The only option outside of the RNG I would support is to get one Fractals weapon skin of your choice when you complete a level 50 for the first time with personal rewards level 50.

I have put to many hours into farming for the skins I want to see them just be turned into Vendor weapons like we have for the other dungeons.

There is no player to player because anet wants to avoid scams and other issues. Like chat spam etc.

It has been stated by developers that they have no plans to add it.

I would not trade through the mail unless you know the person because if they don’t send the item or gold you out of luck. Anet might ban them for scamming. But you won’t get your stuff back.

Congratss on the drop though.

This has been discussed before. No one is directly opposed of new weapons. Although the best use or skills are always a debate. However anet doesn’t seem to like voting or petition based threads (petition threads being against the tos) so rather then asking people to vote for the weapon perhaps a discussion on the need or roles of the weapon would be more productive.

Brother Grimm.5176:

My only comment to all this is WHY would you want to play this game if you don’t like the current combat system? Trying to make this game into something else means you SHOULD be playing another game (not trying to get this one modified for YOUR desire for another game).

I’ve got no problem with the mod as long as Anet doesn’t care (and your assumption that they do not based on your interpretation of the mod rules is a big one, IMO). My issue with this request is that the resources required to put this in place are taken away from something else and I am NOT for that tradeoff.

Never could understand the need to use all caps on random words.

But that aside the combat camera in this game is a huge inconvenience. Targeting and trying to click on foes in a mass of particles is trying at best. Add in that the mouse icon tends to get lost in the confusion it can be more frustrating.

While I can respect that you want to have resources placed elsewhere that doesn’t change that this is one way of addressing camera and mouse targeting issues that many players complain about.

They really do need to let us salvage them. By this point it would not hurt much as there are man exotic items selling for less then a gold on the trading post. They could even prevent us from trying to make money off it by preventing us from getting exto etc from them

It needs a bit of polish. I prefer to just equip from the inventory now rather then try and use the hero menu.

I would like to see the shield get some love. The Flameseeker Prophecy was my first and still my favorite legendary weapon. I really only use it in spvp when I bunker. I would be happy with either a blind or weakness or something added to number 4 because I doubt we will get a full rework on it.

I think we have ask for some of those before. Sadly I don’t think we ever got an answer

It is a disappointment. I have not lost complete hope. You would think that Anet would pay more attention to a thread that has been going for as long as this one.

Zui.9245:

The targeting in this game is terrible (compared to say, GW1). Anything that involves more use of the bad targeting system shouldn’t even be considered, until the targeting system is addressed. Unfortunately, with the way the game is designed, I don’t think targeting can be fixed…

Yes the target system is perhaps the worst part of the game. Either we click what we don’t want to or we lose the pointer in all the effects. Skills that target party members are just better off under the mass blanket we have now. Even if target system is fixed I would still prefer skills that give boons to the whole group like shouts or blast to individual target skills

I don’t think that anyone would object to new content. I am border line bored of pve. However I do still enjoy spot and wvw

I do agree with the op on some things. But we need some more content. I don’t care if it is more dungeons a real guild vs guild mode or my personal favorite bring back the Hall of Heros.

I really would have liked to have seen something like this mod for the feature patch. I won’t risk my account to use the mod though

You forgot Kurzick.

Loved that armor on my female warrior. I really would like to see more of them brought over.

Anything would be great. I have run fractals since the beginning. It was great at first. But now I have my ranger (who I don’t really play) setting there with a full inventory of 100 rings. That isn’t counting the ones setting in storage or the fact that all 10 of my toons have fully ascended trinkets…. the more fractals I run the more I think about just trashing them…

No. This isn’t needed. I don’t often agree with Solomon but on this I am with him. His points are correct. Stat swaps on the fly a perk for owning one of the rarest weapons in the game. It was a perk anet added just for them. And it should stay that way.

Olvendred.3027:

13 exactly? I did hear of an old ritual where if you sacrifice 13 royal monarchs by the full moon, Abaddon will return…

Ohh, then I gotta try that out then!

Tried that last year… Sadly it was just a hoax.

storm officer.1028:

i paid money if i remember correctly

And you have a working game for it. Cut the self entitlement.

So I responded on my phone. The point still stands. You want all this for free. Quit the QQ

storm officer.1028:

jweez.7214:

This game isn’t for us.

for people that want a real challenge in a game

You are playing the wrong game. This game was never hard and never presented a challenge.

I always find these QQ post about the gem store funny. “gem wars”

Nothing in the gem store is needed to play or do well in this game.

The day you decide you decide to work a full time job for no pay and no benefits you might have some room to talk

Frostgorge Sound. I love wandering through the Koden Cities. That and I used to spend alot of time there.

Open world dungeons = bad. Never liked them in other game that had them, can’t see me liking them anymore here.

Think of it like this. In WvW we use some pretty expensive foods. All it would take is one troll running in the zerg shooting this birthday buff out and causing us to lose the effects of the food we want to be using in place of that given by the buff. Its got to be working as Intended.

Manasa Devi.7958:

I’d prefer it if the state of the tree view was retained between crafting sessions. It would work for everyone. If you want all categories to be collapsed, you’d need to only do that once.

That would be fine for me as well. Just getting tired of the way it is set up now.

I would be more careful with Necro Posting to get the Red Threads to show up. The WvW Sub-fourm has already gotten a warning about it.

For the interface, It would be nice if when we spoke to it and clicked on the crafting tab the slots all appeared minimized. I know there is a search function at the top, but it can be rather silly at times. I would just like to be able to click once to pick out the section, then again to start crafting.

There are several Aussie players in my guild. Actually all aussies and new zeland I am the only american, currently stationed in Korea. They say the lag is better on the NA as opposed to EU servers. Hope that helps.

Provides some great all around builds for any dungeon, and other areas. If your running with Pugs I would suggest the fractal hammer build. Most Pugs won’t be blasting firefields anyway. However before you go all auto attack crazy make sure that the Ele isn’t dropping fire fields or something similar that can lead to upset Pugs and well all know how that road can go.

One question:. Will the Title automatically update or will I have to log back into Guild Wars/do anything extra for it to display in Guild Wars 2?

It is a pain. But fillers are necessary. Usually it is simple enough. No one needs waste time. Filler can be afk or on another map etc. Usually If some one in our guild ask I am one of the first to lend a hand.

Wethospu.6437:

I use it pick up dead rofl zerkers from floor.

So your saying it makes a good Shovel?

Boysenberry.1869:

I’m from JQ and just last week on the last couple of days we “gave up” and pretty much phoned it in. I saw JQ drop to +55 at one point and maybe even lower. When you know you’ve been beat, rest up, enjoy some real life, and come back the next week ready to go again. There’s no need to rub it in, or insult other servers because they recognize the obvious. It happens to everyone.

And In before the lock

Obtena.7952:

Talyn.3295:

I find it sad that you feel the zerker community is the problem.

I find it sad that from what I’ve said, this is what you think I feel.

I read through this entire thread before I commented. Over several days, and This was what I took away from it. You might not have said those words in that order, but it was the feeling your post generated.

I guess we can both be sad together.

Obtena.7952:

Darius.4710:

Honestly, Obtena, do you really take a moment to think of what you’re doing? Suggesting it’s inappropriate to choose who a said player will play with, or not (PUG or not, who cares)? Suggesting that your idea of a PUG should be accepted by others for no reason other than your own desire? Suggesting that players go out of their way to help others who won’t even ask what’s in a LFG sign they don’t understand?

That’s what you think I’m suggesting? Let me clear something up here. I’m all for choosing who you want to play with. I’m all for people playing how they want (because if they aren’t, their head isn’t screwed on right). I’m all for tolerance and education. What does that mean?

Play with who you want to, but be responsible and smart about it. Setting a LFG message, expecting people to abide and washing your hands of the responsibilities of ensuring your in a team you want makes no sense. That LFG message doesn’t dissolve anyone of the need for the same checks that were done BEFORE LFG was implemented. I think it’s MORE necessary now than ever because yes, I doubt many people will ask about the LFG message if they don’t understand, care or know. Even if they ask, what does someone tell them? Come to this subforum for information? It’s and interesting stance to blame someone for not asking, but if there isn’t any place to direct them to, it’s meaningless.

I don’t think the message has changed, just because there is a new way to make a team: If there is a requirement to play with certain people, it’s up to the person/people with those requirements to find them.

It also means that if players have special requirements to higher performing teams, they need to educate people on what that means and how to do it. The toxic approach taken in the Guardian forums to do that over a year ago was a failure. Renewed efforts are better; we have DPS guides now in may profession forums, they are extremely useful.

I find it sad that you feel the zerker community is the problem. When in most instances we stick to our own. Create our own groups and seldom if ever join groups that we don’t meet the requirements for.

It is as if you expect the LFG tool to be there for everyone in the game but us. Because we put “Unreasonable restrictions”, when we use it to find four like minded people to play with.

Casual players don’t need a “White Knight” they can complete the same content we can by joining their own groups.

I wish people would try to enjoy the game more rather then spend all their time here on the forums complaining that they haven’t been able to get there Shiny yet.

Posters here can be worse then Skritt. At least Skritt appreciate the shines they have,

I’m gonna be that person here because I’m in a rotten mood.

-shakes fist-

OMG, I thought I got away from you after twelfth grade English! How did you find me here? Is it worse that got it right once then got it wrong the second time?

It would just speed up things. Since we can’t change the layout while actually in combat it wouldn’t Matter. I support this mostly cause I find the new Trait interface so un-wieldy.

Majic.4801:

I have a hard time believing Zojja would ever let Taimi’s golem beat up Mr. Sparkles.

If she did, however, we could safely interpret that as a sign of affection for the little tike.

^ This. I think giving who Zojja is, it is safe to assume that she has some tricks up her sleeves that we haven’t seen just yet. She doesn’t strike me as the type to play all her cards at once.

I am all for ways of customizing characters more. Sadly it isn’t like Anet could undo the changes that were made with the Wardrobe system. I miss the days before the change. But I can stay that about Mega Servers too..

I would like to see it up full time. Its one of the QOL i would pick.

Always wanted to see a martyr skill for my guardian, something I could use in WvW or sPvP. It would cause damage from my team to be re-directed at me, but negate a portion or possibly all of it for x amount of time either on its own or through combination with Shelter.

shurgs Not exactly certain it could work, but it would be fun to try.

I am not a fan of capes, I don’t know why they keep being brought up. A cloak would have some kind of function, at least from Roleplay perspective. I always hid my cape in guild wars 1, just like I do most of my back pieces in Guild Wars 2

Working as intended.

It has been painful to watch how anet is handling the whole reflects issue. I don’t think anyone can give a good answer as for they feel those skills had to be changed, I have my theories though…

read this in the sticky. Guardians are great for DPS. I have found for me personally its far easier to Solo content on my guardian then it ever was on my warrior. But that could be because my guardian was my main since Launch.

If you speck right, you won’t be hitting like a wet noodle, it will be like hitting with a truck.

At leas they have hair in the cutscenes. I remember the bug for a while that certain NPCs were Bald.

It kinda makes me smile to see the persistence of players here. No matter how much silence anet directs at this thread, we keep posting.

For myself I went back to Guild Wars recently to help some Guildies Vanquish, we just finished Cantha. I really miss the place….. Oh well, On to Elona!
