Well, this player has been playing for a long time. As many of the things he cited happened a year or more ago.

You do not have to do map completion more than once to get more than two legendary weapons. The Alternative? Buy it with gold. Which is ~800g more expensive on average than buying/using your own materials. (Even if you use your own materials, they still have a gold cost)

Gift of Battle? Wot is that….
But if you are getting 10 fps on a jumping puzzle, are you getting 2 in WvW?

WvW has crafting stations. And many pieces of ascended have been crafted in there. As for spvp, gear is standardized…

Should mistforged weapons be obtained in the trading post? What about the balth backpack? what is obtainable there? Going back to your first gripe, Legendaries! No need for map completion there.

Ill combine these two
“7. The burst meta…. No tanks/defensive roles. Just stealth burst followed up by stealth stomps.”
and
“13. The berserker stat nerf.”

Last year, critical damage went from gaining straight percentages from a crit stat to ferocity. Which resulted in a ~10% damage reduction in full zerker builds.

So do you want to go back to more burst? Or is current burst too much? Make up your mind.

As for the Dyes, you made the mistake of opening/selling when that change happened a year ago. Take a look at prices now, almost each UNided dye is worth 1 gold. You said you had 8 characters? How many dyes did you get back? Id be willing to be more than 250. Its your own fault for only getting silvers back when many of us are still reaping in the rewards of said change.

The rest, are not worth me commenting on. Carry on.

Explain swiftness acquisition to me?

The only reasoning I can think of for Temporal Curtain acting the way it does:

Once it has been placed, what keeps us from going back and forth through it to stack swiftness?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Telemin.7380

Telemin.7380

Temporal Curtain only applies swiftness if you currently have no swiftness. It is the only skill in the game that works like that. The rest of the swiftness skills stack on duration. Such was Warrior Warhorn Blowing, Guard Staff 3 and Static + Blasts.

TLDR – The tool tip for Temporal Curtain is incorrect, that one wont stack, but all other swiftness skills will.

People paid or rewarded to post here?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Telemin.7380

Telemin.7380

This accusation gets tossed around a lot – that certain people who post such high praise for Anet’s decisions might be rewarded in some way. I haven’t reached a decision on this yet, so I thought the best approach is just to come right out and ask.

Will someone at ANet please tell the rest of us if you reward certain people for their forum comments? If you could just issue a flat out denial then that might diminish the number of accusations, especially right now.

We do not pay players to post on the forums nor do we make use of shill or sock puppet accounts. Honestly, I’m surprised if anybody takes these accusations seriously.

If people took the ‘end of the world’ seriously, of course they will panic each time some one claims the sky is falling here.

Tier 8 calls 10 man groups zergs. With 5 man you can do a quite a bit, even cap SMC in off hours. Id say ET, but I am clearly Biased, but the other tier 7-8 servers would suit you well. If by chance you are interested in ET, feel free to message me here, in game or look at the Nob website at http://nob.enjin.com/?welcome or ETs site http://eredonterrace.enjin.com/.

Was this what Arena Net thought would be perfect for veteran players?

Apparently you’re not aware at how much some of this has been requested. It’s a pretty big thing for a lot of people. Not me, mind you, but a lot of people.

But as it has been said many times on these forums, the majority of the player base does not frequent the forums. It has been requested, yes. They listened, yes. But for the majority of the player base that does not frequent these forums, will it help retain them?

[Suggestion] Remove level restriction on ecto

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Telemin.7380

Telemin.7380

The influx of ectos (with this idea) would not come from drops, but from the huge surplus of dungeon tokens sitting in peoples wallets. 30ish Dungeon tokens for one yellow when people are already sitting on thousands of tokens?

On a random note, there is an old post by John Smith (that I am not willing to look for at the moment), that has the rate of which ectos move, which if I remember correctly its over 50k in 3ish hours.
