Guild Wars 2

That depends.
That’s true that ninjas often were disguised as farmers, gardeners or servants.
But we’re mostly speaking about fancy assassins. More known as Shinobi.

and yeah, those weapons were used by samurais and not only.
For example Tanto was also used by women for self defense.

Tho depending on their design, they had different names.

Protip:

instead of complaining, get better in pvp with mesmer.

Beldin.5498:

A lot of people have choosen to play on German, French or Spain server because they
want to talk in their own language .. and some are maybe even not good in english.

So only because Mega-Server now mixes all those player wildly together on the maps
didn’t remove their right to talk in their own language.

If someone asks in German i answer in german .. if someone asks in english i answer in
english .. if its french or spain .. i look maybe if i have a clue what that could mean .. and irgnore it

There is a filter for language client.

If my client is English and your is German, then we won’t see what we write in Map chat as long as we have filter turned on.

Most of the players have filter turned on – since they dunno that it does even exist.

And problem with it arise when a German using english client is spamming in german in map chat, and that ticks people off.

EdgarMTanaka.7291:

To OP: About Katanas… I have a decent idea that you wanna make a Ninja as your thief with a Katana and the Ninja suit :P But to be perectly clear, Ninjas do/did not use Katanas. The ninja sword is Ninjató or something like that and is a Short sword with a straight blade.

So in my opinion Thiefs or Ninjas should not use greatswords as they are to heavy and slow and would not work as a quick, Small and stealthy weapon.

If it comes to ninja Japanese style weapons then

Katana = long sword
Wakizashi = short sword
Tanto = dagger

They could make Belinda’s stylized sword and dagger but that’s up to anet and making it into Gem Store.

I’m not giving a single flying pig toward insults, discrimination or whatever else.
It only shows the level of stupidity of someone who’s unable to properly show his point of view.

Nevertheless there are many people who get offended by something that’s irrelevant or it’s a spoken truth – like history – and they go full kitten mode with tears falling like a waterfall.

Those people are of the same level as those who keep insulting for fun – same brain level I say.

Can’t even call them kids, since majority of those people are 18+.

People are people. Sometimes it’s the best to just ignore them, since their flood is a better brain cell killer than vodka.

google different game please

Go back to China please.

you have shown your level of intelligence by make invalid QQpost while 90% of stuff you want is already in game and you don’t see it.

Only one thing I certainly have noticed that isn’t in game are mounts which probably was your idea for a “new way of traveling” in game.

Story like noble and dead parents.
It’s within your personal story, and upon any other change it’s changed accordingly.

Choosing Vigil, Priory or Order have it’s own unique story missions with decisions which accordingly give missions up to what you’re chosen.

Each order has their own skins of weapons and armor

-That there was more benefit to exploring, like more random treasure chests, or the chance to stumble across secret doors leading to randomly-generated mini dungeons.

There are hidden chests in whole world.
You have also Jumping Puzzles.

-There are no new professions.

Are you capable of playing them all flawlessly?
I doubt it.

-There are no new races to choose from.

Did you make all chars and races and did their own Racial MyStory?

-While the world has changed in really cool ways, the game play aspect of navigating it is basically the same.

Oh, so, Mount time?
No, we don’t need it.

As a human female Thief, I wish that:
-I had access to new weapons. Personally, I want Great Sword so I can use the katana skin (once it’s back up on the trading post).

google different game please

I know that next friday normal matchups will start.
My point is that SFR behaves like blob bots atm. No matter what hour, when, how, why, there are hundred man blobs from their side on each map. May it be middle of day or 3am, same thing.

The only thing that makes it decent is Disruptor Trap which seems to block their access to lemming brainz. :|

As being stationed in Deso, I actually am not really participating in this tournament much despite the fact I love WvW.

Sorry, but 3 weeks of SFR full time blobs?

I’ll rather stay afk in Divinity Reach.

Funny thing.

Those weapons don’t have Cavalier stats.

-100 points Anet……giving all other, but skipping Cavalier…

Yes, you can gather them all and exchange even after Tournament is over.

FearedbytheGods.8617:

They should make a tier 0, that way BG can play with itself like on the community forums.

they can play with SFR there. same happening in Europe.

SFR has the best pvpers and therefore is the best PvP server EU.

Tachenon.5270:

Back in the day, dwarves rode dolyaks and the occasional drake. Nowadays, the dredge have transports. Why would everyone else eschew the use of enhanced modes of transportation?

And we have Asura Leyline Waypoints which allow us to travel from Rata Sum to any place in Ascalon in mere one second.

OP seems to be a ranger who got boosted after last patch and lost to shortbow auto attack thief in 1v1.

Dear Anet

I’m requesting an IQ Test upon thread creation in all forums to reduce amount of whiners.

Thank you

OP seems to not realize that Thief is the most deadly class in pvp.

if OP like mounts in Archeage I recommend him to stay there and stop spreading mount disease here.

Lord Kuru.3685:

This is a really good point.

If people knew that hacking were punished, the default behavior would be to educate yourself about what skills/traits your opponent is using.

A more educated player base means fewer false accusations and in the end leads to fewer reports that Anet has to follow up on (should they ever decide to deal with hackers), which makes it much easier for them to deal with hackers.

TLDR: Anet deals with hackers (as opposed to doing nothing) leads to: dealing with hackers becomes easier. Or I guess they can just continue to do nothing.

Won’t do a squat.

I have played many MMO games, and in all of them, even the oldest players, kept spamming hacker here and there, while having no idea about game mechanics, which is why they behaved that way.

If people refuse to learn at least basic game mechanics – and hence we have combos too – then even if Anet will ban them and show it that they do or not won’t change attitude and mentality regarding learning a bit about game.

Because it’s easier for them on complaining about something they don’t understand and get frustrated over it and not wasting time on learning the game.

EotM is working perfectly fine and as intended.

I’m 11 and half.

sishbob.3987:

I’ve actually thought of a few ways around this via algorithms. Most hackers act in a very similar way. If ANet could write an algorithm that checked to see which players had those patterns and investigated them, it could lead to a wave of hacker bans that would clean up WvW for quite a while I feel.

would be great, but not exactly.
People tend to like to explore and check various things in game.
Any bug or rubberband caused by latency or something else, could always trigger that algorithm(have seen such cases), and that wouldn’t point out that player was actually using any 3rd party program to enchance it’s abilities.

That would also could shoot anyone after each patch, as they could break something or cause a bug with certain skills or anything else. Therefore that would lead to algorithm triggering and poof, banned.

This would lead to massive complain and flood of support ticket system regarding wrongly distributed bans. That adds a lot of work, each one has to be checked throughly, since leaving it as it is, means losing customer.

So far the best solution was to always record such people and send them with timestamps to support where support can check it also in server logs.

Have to also remember that every protection or w/e else can always backfire at normal users and cheaters can always a find a way to bypass it.

So, I myself haven’t met anyone cheating so far.
That may only show that cheating issue is minor at the moment and should be boycotted by community by reporting such players immediately.

Actually if someone want to buy those items in similar quantity, then it is cheaper to buy this pack than all items separately.

Tho, I agree, there should be 5 BL Claim Tickets not Scraps.

after reading OP it seems that story was more like:

1. OP saw ranger, thought it’s going to be an easy kill so rushed to it like kitten kitten .
2. before OP reached teh ranger he was downed.
3. OP got 1sec mind freeze irl.
4. OP tried to use hammer to kd ranger but ranger used dodge and evaded teh hammer.
5. OP got 1sec mind freeze irl.
6. OP tried to use Vengence but was already dead.
7. OP got 1 sec mind freeze irl.
8. OP realized he lost to ranger.
9. OP got 5min mind freeze irl.
10. OP logged on teh forums and says he’s playing a warrior. Then OP admits he got kited by ranger.
11. Reality slaps OP in the face.
12. OP realizes that Warrior can be rekt by everyone.

have a nice Thursday.

Hackers = cheaters in games.

First of all you should screenshot/record a video with the one who’s cheating.
Would be great to also provide time + time zone + place to let them nail it more precisely.

And send it to support, not post on forums.

And one more thing since people say anet don’t do anything etc.

Fighting people who create such tools is very hard and time consuming.

It’s easier and faster to catch someone using it and ban him than actually fix the issue – because not everything server side is that great.

Applying protections like GameGuard or HackShield is simply useless, since they’re easy to bypass.

As an example, same is with antivirus software.

To make antivirus work, it needs to have a data about specified virus. To have that data, such virus must be created.

People who create such software are always 1 step ahead of the ones who create shields against them.
It’s no rocket science.

wow.

I gotta congratulate Arena Net for developing a single thing that makes whole blobs cry.

Turns out that braindead charge blobs do not work anymore.

This is what Siege should be about.
Not mindless who has bigger blob random aoe spam and win.

each material drops at similar amount depending on player’s activity.

There are people who are overflowing with Empyreal Fragments and lack Bloodstone piles along with Dragonite Ores.

Make bosses dumb. Reduce their damage by 90%, reduce their hp by 50%. They shouldn’t move and laugh a bit.
Each one of them should drop Legendary weapon Chest of choice. Give 500 AP.

Also, so Anet won’t be greedy, add 50% chance to obtain random Gem Shop item.

Content isn’t hard, but people tend to do stuff easy mode.

For example, CoE and Subject Alpha.
Who said you have to stack in corner and lure him? Why not spread out?
it’s already a whole lot harder to kill him this way than stacking and dpsing with closed eyes.

Your servers are acting up.

DDoS again?

bad idea.

nuff said.

soulbound/accountbound Unidentified Dye.

kthx Anet.

Aeolus.3615:

Prophet.6257:

In all fairness GW2 isn’t an open world. We got square and rectangle zones separated by VERY unrealistic mountains. Exploration is limited and we see less than 10 percent of the actual planet. Some games hide that a lot better than GW2 does… well every MMO I’ve played hides it better than GW2 but that’s another issue.

Thats called mmo seamless world

No, it’s called Sandbox.

Aeolus.3615:

Tao.5096:

Wow people are even complaining about maps now.

kitten, I feel sorry for Anet.

Problem here is the #disconection" player feels over time, players try new games and feel some mechanics are far superior to gw2 (as a player), and sometimes their decision looks like one step back, but that just my opinion what wrong with the maps system

P.S i rather have a server map only without any kind of overflow than a megaserver with overflows.

And yet to make open world in GW2 would require different world mechanics.

Obviously world bosses would have to be much stronger and much more complex – scaling system. Which would for sure, lead to massive flames toward players like it was during Queen’s Gauntlet events – and it was a really small thing.

Sooner or later, there would be a massive feedback and request for PK and Open World PvP. That would lead to fails during world boss raids, since guilds would massively PK players or GvG during that time(TERA’s problem).

Would open many paths to abuse it in different ways.

As Sandbox itself is a very nice World system, after such time, it would not fit GW2 system.

For that it would require Devs to not only re-map everything, but also change the whole system to suit Open World and make it work with it.

Therefore I see no reason to complain about GW2 maps. If someone believe that maps in Gw2 are too small and feel uncomfortable with that system, go ahead and change the game. I believe there are a lot of games that have Open World like in WoW for example(mentioning because someone already did it).

Hello,

I’m a part of playerbase for over half a year. By the time I didn’t play, as in since beginning, there were a lot of Living stories, like Tower of Nightmare or LS with Mad King or SAB.

My question is mostly forwarded to Anet staff and dev team.

Are you working on a way to let new players and players who didn’t experience or would like to repeat old Living stories? Or is there a possibility that you would consider making it available non time gated.

By the means of course I’m referring to them being mostly instanced, since they cannot affect current world, because they’re a thing of the past and do not suit Lore which is pushing forward.

I believe that GW2 playerbase do have a big group of players who like stories in GW2 and would appreciate it.
Also, the work you have put on creating them wouldn’t be one-time only and could be enjoyed by playerbase which is constantly growing.

Best regards

if you’ll interrupt them, they stop life leeching.

’sup?

Wow people are even complaining about maps now.

kitten, I feel sorry for Anet.

Tao.5096:

I didn’t play GW1 and I don’t care about it.
I’m playing GW2 and I like the way it’s developed and how it works.

You may have noticed that I like Guild Wars 2 also. lol

Doesn’t mean there wasn’t some cool stuff in the predecessor. Have you ever been lying dead in a dungeon. Can’t rez because the party is in combat. The ability to double click on a party member and see the battle through their eyes would be very cool to have.

I can see why they didn’t do the Menagerie though. That was only for rangers…but in Guild Wars 1, everyone could have a pet by making their second profession a ranger. Where was here, you’d be making an entire area for one profession out of eight.

I see Minis as Pet replacement if I understood you correctly. Little companion which is more of a fashion purpose than any other.

moreover, spectator system is available in PvP arenas, so that function is in game.

Point is, that GW2 compared to GW1 has only title and lore as something you can connect.

And I’m happy for how different system is.

Adding more dungeons would be nice, 12 man or even 24 man dungeons would be great.

hence I would be even after adding more world bosses which are like Tequatl The Sunless or Triple Trouble – matter of difficulty level of course.

In Main Story I don’t see Zhaitan dying. I see him only falling down. Anyone made sure he’s dead? Nope.

Why not making a 24 man instance or more to finish off Zhaitan?

Yes, Zhaitan fight for me was dull and incomplete in My Story.
That’s my idea for bringing it to light, but I’m aware that making something like this would take loads of time and resources.

nevertheless, I’m happy how Anet is listening to player ideas, and is working all the time to improve the game.

In my opinion, GW1 topics shouldn’t be brought here – at least not as much.
People should face it, GW1 is no more here, or rather, we have something new. Adapt and enjoy.

Like I have mentioned many times in many other threads, game is very player friendly – starting from casuals ending on hardcore ones.

The reason may why Anet doesn’t show a sign of care toward such threads and people complains is maybe because those threads aren’t constructive, or they already have stated it – GW2 is something new, and we’re going forward, we don’t want to stand in one place.

I didn’t play GW1 and I don’t care about it.
I’m playing GW2 and I like the way it’s developed and how it works.

IQ test for people who want to post something on forums and log into game.

I totally agree with OP.

Let’s make it a park walk.
We don’t need challenge. We need an easy mode high rewarding stuff.

I have a better idea. Let’s put all valuable rewards in a npc who charge players for 1 copper per item.

No one will have to waste time and struggle with world bosses anymore.

OP should quit.

Getting frustrated over something that he doesn’t understand and doesn’t like.

I meant that, why not just add whole set of Molten Tools.
I know that Mining Pick isn’t new.

Also, the last time I saw Mining picks it was during Anniversary where those Picks were available only for mere 2 days. :/

If I would want to ruin things and this game then…

I would make Gameforge as Guild Wars 2 Publisher.

:v

Heya,

It’s very nice that Anet did add Molten Sickle and Molten Logging Axe, but my question is, where’s Molten Mining pick?

QQ just why you didn’t add it too

No, we don’t need new class.

wow, AA.

You people are giving me a very good laugh when you’re comparing Gw2 to AA :v

please, continue~

Ignore those people.

Self-belief that whenever they join a certain map, everything on that map belong to them. You need their special permission to act on their maps.
Otherwise a huge drama will come out.

I already have been reported many times for killing certain champions which as they said, they’re farming them and I should wait for them.

Like with Eye of Zhaitan, or previously in QD.

Same goes in WvW.
Taking the point or tower with 2 more people is unforgivable – some commanders and blobs act like this xD

Nevertheless, I would advise to ignore such people.
Single digit IQ level is a max, what their mind is capable of achieving.

I don’t grind, because I dislike it. I just do couple of simple daily tasks and they bring me 40~60g a day. Where i exchange 20g everyday for Gems.

This is exactly what I need, so which daylies are you talking about besides most likely dungeons and world events, unless you prefer to keep it to yourself

In any case in a couple of hours ill be trying most of the above here and see where I get from there

World events, some dungeons.
D/e exotics with Black Lion Salvage Kit – you can get it from dailies – I did and still have plenty of packs.
D/e all rares, blue, green, whities. Increase MF, get craft mats, sell in broker.
Npc stuff to npc.
Runes to broker etc.

Imo, everything you don’t need and can be put in broker for higher value + broker fee than vendor, goes to broker.

Eventually you’ll notice yourself that selling those even laughable 3silver worthy stuff bring you loads of golds altogether.

I don’t mind sharing it, because the more people practice it, the better supplied broker is.
And this is what we all should work on, on keeping broker highly supplied.

Honestly,

you don’t have to play 24/7 to realize that everything gatherable, droppable is bringing money.
Hence, market and needs for all kinds of gatherables and droppables is much much higher than in other games.

i.e. – anything that you drop, brings money. Sooner or later, you’ll notice you’ve gained golds, and not just couple but even tens.

not bashing or laughing.

I don’t grind, because I dislike it. I just do couple of simple daily tasks and they bring me 40~60g a day. Where i exchange 20g everyday for Gems.

This game has really such a soft and easy way to obtain ingame currency.

I don’t like apples.

OP is playing since launch and still didn’t find a way to get gold?

Jesus….
