You guys are kind of the worst of the farming bunch. I always resurrect, help others who also want to farm, and encourage others to do well. If I don’t like my arena anymore, then I simply leave and don’t make a fuss. Gauntlet isn’t intended AT ALL for just farming.
I had a guy actually say to me yesterday that the arena he was at was full and for me to go away. I made sure to stay around, get into a match, and fight for as long as possible. He left not too long after that.
Some guy wanted to farm in peace, so you decided to be a total jerk about it? And yet you have the audacity to come on these forums and act like you’re on the high ground here? Your two paragraphs totally contradict each other. This kind of attitude is the problem. You think you’re nice, yet when someone plays the game in a way you don’t like, you harass them. This moral elitism needs to stop.
Lol, wow. No one owns an arena. I’ve been told to go away, which just makes me stay at that arena.
Vendoring gives you wings. How would they calculate vendor prices for higher tier items? We set the prices on the tp, plus they want us to use the tp for listing fees (gold sink).
With things that can’t be traded, no clue how they’d determine the prices for those either :P Gold means less and less as time goes on, so it’s not like they’d just change the vendor prices every few months.
TEMP content is epicly STUPID its forcing us to play to spend more money on gems instead to enjoy summer cuz they need to make more money as soon as outer AAA f2p mmo’s comes me and my guild are stoping this DRESS up SKIN wars game .NO raids epic FAIL for any mmo !!!
I’m a bit tired of temporary content, but none of it has made me spend money, so no clue what you’re going on about. I’m also fine with no raids :P
I don’t know what you understand for "maintenance " but in online games, that always take a while (they always said 6 hour but it may take less or way more than that).
6 hours is a bit strange for this game though. There hasn’t been a build update that’s lasted longer then just relogging since release :P
I like underwater combat, but then I have a ranger for that with full lvl 80 exotic weapons and superior sigils. I also have 2 lvl 80 breathers slotted with a 7th rune so I maintain my 6th rune bonus depending on which armour set I am using.
The reason many don’t like under combat is because they do not bother, or are too cheap, to run level appropriate underwater kit.
As for utility skills, so certain ones are not available – big deal. Rangers loose all traps and anything ground-target related. This does not make rangers useless underwater. No matter what class you play, if your build is that dependent on these unavailable skills, then that is a problem with your build, not the combat.
Yup, it might take a play style adjustment to play in a completely different environment, who would have thought?? But this should not be a problem for all you so-called ‘pro’ hot-shot players, yes??
Pretty sure all of us are in exotics, and not complaining about underwater combat while wearing whites. I also get the feeling you mean thieves losing stealth is build reliant, when it’s a basic concept for the entire class, so lose the attitude. Who said they were a pro hot shot player (lol), weird guy.
Rangers and Mesmers are fun underwater. I may be biased on the ranger part, mainly because I love my shark. Not a big fan of Guardians underwater (feels like it takes too long to kill most things), Necros are fine, and I enjoy Engi’s turrets underwater unlike above water.
Used to be decently fun, despite having 0 utility skills, no elite and lack of stealth under water as Thief. Then they nerfed the only thing that made it not 100% horrible. Now I don’t enjoy the water as much anymore.
My thief underwater feels like a completely different character. And by different, I mean useless.
Hehe. Cry about your lack of stealth some more. Your tears feed my pets.
In all honesty, I run a condition thief which is far more useless than a burst thief underwater. Burst thieves have Shadowed Assault which is a spammable evade while attacking. I don’t see how not-OP that is.
Eh, talking about PvE here guy. I’m also a condition thief, so not sure where you’re going with this. I just hate losing all my utilities and elites.
Also 30 into SA pretty much means nothing, and no caltrops on dodge underwater XD

I hope that one day they will change the movement skills to allow you to jump up small heights and so on. if you look at star wars the old republic combat where some classes can force leap up to platforms and others with jet packs and so on it adds a whole new dimension to combat.
The jumping there was pretty horrible. I did like being nice and camping a character on the Jawa mobile for helping people with duel/Harpoon gun. kitten balloon rides :P
i understand having the traits set up the way they do trying to force diversity into builds. but that only really works when the options you have are interesting and more importantly viable to a good selection of play styles, therefor making it more about choosing which good traits to take and which good traits to sacrifice.
however the traits we actually have, led to a thinking style more along the lines of “how many useful traits can i get while avoiding too many of the useless ones and not sacrificing too many useful stats”.
which ofc makes build design more an act of frustration than fun.
Minor traits annoy me more than anything. I can’t tell you number of times the “Stealth at 25% health” (or w/e it is) trait has gotten my thief killed in WvW :P
Oh, I agree with you. I also just laugh at a lot of the threads :P I mainly just want more options, skill wise. I find myself auto attacking just a bit too much.
Really wish things like Blink and Infiltrator’s Arrow worked over gaps like Engi’s jump shot. I like the temp tp gun, but with no reticle it can often be more of a hindrance :P
I suppose what makes GW2 a good game (not a great one, IMO. A good one) is that I am not constantly fighting other players.
Ugh, I remember in ToR there being a line to kill certains NPCs. Then of course some guy would run up and just kill it with 5 or so of us raging on the inside.
I’m actually okay with people undercutting by a few gold. It’s people who undercut my 100g by 1c for 99.99.99 that get under my skin for some reason :P
After wasting 20g on Celestial in efforts to better match my radiant skins, you’re better off with white. You can preview the dye by right-clicking it in the TP, but what you see in the preview window isn’t even close to what you’ll see in-game. People like to defend it with excuses of ambient lighting, but it’s so far off-base even in the most well lit areas, it’s not even worth considering at this point. Save yourself the coin and just go with white.
Yeah, the preview is very misleading :P I say, if you’re going to spend 10g, might as well go 20g though (for white/celestial).
Black can be dark enough for some armor, but on heavy there’s a big difference between it and Abyss.
You had 2 weeks to make use of this infusion(most likely farming cof). If you notice it says “all drops”, even without dungeon bosses dropping gold there’s still everything else.
I was the only person who mentioned 2 weeks, not the OP :P
I think they didn’t want to give people an advantage for rolling a certain race. Of course I don’t use any of them, so you’re right that they’re almost useless :P
Sadly, they have already broken faith around the platformers in-game. Originally they were to be optional content, there for those that like them, optional otherwise. This release of the LS they have even gated voting , an important element of impact on the world, behind a mini-game platformer. I don’t do platformers and am unable to vote. It wasn’t supposed to be like this. Very sad.
Did you actually try it? Even once? Because getting up to the airship is not even remotely platforming. If you use the lightning crystal near where the elemental spawns you don’t even have to jump, you can do the entire thing never pushing more than 1 button at a time or using any kind of timing or aim.
What they said. Just take 10 seconds to get past one part of the game :P Also who would you vote for? I’ll toss my 100+ votes at em since I couldn’t care less. (Would be more, but I just delete them now)
I accidently bought a defense infusion amulet, so after a bit I finally bought a utility one with the same stats and got my mf infusion. This was like 2 weeks ago :P A small refund would be nice, though not sure on the gilded.
yep, i know. it was to show the person i quoted that even those “hardcore WvW and PvP” players loved SAB. the second paragraph didn’t have anything to do with SAB itself, just the overall neglect WvW has gotten in the updates, and why there would be some resentment about that.
Ah, I totally missed the part you quoted :P Yeah, WvW needs some love, and not in a rewards way, but a new kitten map. (I think you could say dam + n on tv like 30 years ago. o.O)
Work on skins. My main/namesake is working towards his 6th GS. If you’re not interested in cosmetics, or gold….. I have no clue what to tell you :P Just turn it all into gems and hope something down the line interests you.
As a noncasual person I’m barely about to hit 7k, so I have no clue :P Going to assume it’s people doing every single category for the dailies/monthlies, going out of their way to get obscure achievements, finishing all dungeon paths, and doing every single Living Story achievement.
I’ve personally missed monthlies, back when there weren’t multiple categories to pick from, and fractals were part of them. I also tend to stop doing Living Story achievements once I get the skin/mini.
I accidently told someone I loved their Legendary focus in /say, when it was Meteorlogicus (the Scepter). They turned towards me, then wped away Never again.
Would people be opposed to a weekly on top of the dailies? I mainly just solo, and a weekly might be fun throughout the week, with my dailies running still. Or would it be weekly only?
Thats why I say: Remove all rewards from the came, all laurels, etc etc. Leave ectos to be an exotic crafting material. And reward us with Karma, Gold, XP for completing any event or activity in guild wars 2.
Well I didn’t mean me personally, well besides the doing it all in one day part (I usually do the Monthly in 1-2 days). Having dailies so people will log on each day may be considered bad practice, but I can see where a company is coming from in that aspect. It makes the game world seem more active, but of course that’s pretty much just Queensdale atm.
I thought all events already rewarded us with xp/gold/karma?
I’m horrible at flipping, I should probably just farm Orr tbh. I get through one pen, and maybe one plinx, then I’m spent though. TagWars. Rather deal with OutbidWars :P
Now I don’t enjoy the water as much anymore.
