I can solo the Viscount easily.

Need a strong male character. All the ones we currently have seem to be wusses….

He should be a tragic hero that is kittened off and full of conviction! Complex!

Sounds somewhat generic but I’m sure he could be molded into something great.

Anyway…Welcome and good luck. :P

Blue variation of the crimson mask?

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

So yeah like the title says. Could we possibly get a blue variation?

Could call it the “Glowing Azure Mask”?

It’d look good on a Guardian with all the glowing blue lights and flames etc etc.

<——Complains about cash shop bs…asks for items…back flips….

…You should also make a pair that only glows during combat…

Paying for past content?

I’d rather a subscription then this cash shop BS.

People think you get a better deal when you go F2P or B2P with a cash shop. You don’t when it comes down to it.

This is one reason why.

Cash shops are a freaking corruption of MMO’s.

So you would rather be unable to play at all without paying monthly instead of being able to play anything in the game but be able to CHOOSE to pay for certain things?

Yes, yes I would.

This way I won’t be behind a pay wall when new content comes out. Unless there is some expansion that is.

Which is fine by me seeing as expansions add a ton of content to a game.

As the living story is now I’d not recommend anyone purchasing it. Sure it’s getting better this season but there is still so little extra content added.

Also this gem to gold conversion thing is manipulation to the max. It’s hard to make gold and the ways we could make gold in the past have been nerfed. It was even put in one of their news posts that hey “Remember you can trade gems for gold at the cash shop!” or something along those lines. God it’s so freaking obvious.

I’m sure plenty of people can see through this bullkitten though. >.>

This is the problem with B2P with cash shops and F2P models. It’s so easy to manipulate people. You are inconvenienced by design in order to buy things like exp/crafting boosters etc etc. It’s deception.

Ugh I hate it.

And if Anet was pumping out more content I’d be almost okay with it but they don’t. 2 years and no expansion?

When people feel good about the developers of a game and the game itself they will fork out money easily. Most of us don’t feel that way anymore. I’m sure there are threads on that already though.

The boss fights are a massive improvement

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

I agree that the boss fights are better this season. Champs, story boss etc etc.

Just now I beat the Shadow of the Dragon and I must say it was a pretty fun fight. Tops all the boss fights in the game for me so far.

Kicks the kittene out of the Zhaitan battle also. In fact It has made me excited to see where they go with boss fights in future, especially with Mordremoth. First time I’ve felt excited about this game in a while.

Also glad there were no stupid 1 hit kill mechanics as those feel so freaking cheap. Like false difficulty.

Anyway, first positive thing I’ve ever put on these forums. Nice joob Anet.

Greatswords models in GW2

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

The only GS I use is the Krytan Greatsword. It’s a nice simple design, not overly large either. It still seems like it’d be in the realm of fantasy but not in an over the top fashion. Sure it’s a mass produced item in the game but it’s one of the best looking imo. Also matches my armor.

I prefer a broad blade on my great sword instead of the thin ones like bronze/iron/mithril great swords though I dislike the super broad blade ones like the pact avenger, fractal great sword, vigil great sword, etc etc. They look pretty stupid on my Human. They even look really difficult to wield which makes me feel uncomfortable watching my character swing it around. O_o

Oh yes they also need to have a point at the end. The ones without the point at the end just remind me of shovels and the like.

Need more low fantasy great sword models. Low fantasy is a thing right?

Not to beat an 8 month dead horse but this post speaks much truth.

I tried to get my girlfriend into Gw2 recently and she didn’t enjoy the game because she said everything was so cheesy and cliche. I cringe just thinking about her going through the personal story.

:(

Please aim for at least a M15+ rating on the writing in the next story arc Anet. Should take some pro tips from the writers over at blizzard. Now THEY are awesome. Mostly.

Please rethink the whole reward system

Something I noticed yesterday with salvaging. I used instance tokens to buy a bunch of rares to salvage. I picked up a bunch of cabalist hoods or whatever they’re called, light armor. Salvaged a few and it gave me globs of ectoplasm and silk scraps. After I got about half way through my salvaging of these rares it started to only give me linen. This was not because I was just getting unlucky either.

My intention was to salvage silk scraps and ectoplasm in bulk with cheap token instance rare quality gear but it seems salvaging is regulated too. >.>

Nope, buy gold and get those things from the trading post. Makes me want to stop playing. We’re being manipulated.

Anyone else notice this was salvaging?

Why is zerging so encouraged in this game?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

First time facing the shatterer last night. It was ruined by the lack of challenge and mindless zerging. Also the great amount of lag that comes with it. I was very disappoint.

It’d be way more awesome to fight with just a couple of people.

Actually how awesome would it be if we could get our own instanced zones that we could invite people to if we wanted. Just you and a few friends or guild mates try and take on a world boss. Maybe not the whole zone but just the area where you encounter the boss. Like how there are out of bounds areas for story missions and such. I think it could make great end game content if it was really difficult. Give it a better reward system. OH yeah and it could utilize agony from fractals! Giving Agony resistance more meaning!

Another thing. These bloody insta-kill moves are bullkitten. I’d accept the mechanic if it was one of those don’t stand in the red circle too long things but these things are just instant. Probably some form of zerg control which makes it worse. Does not promote skill play. It does not make it feel challenging at all.

I like the battle system in this game but it feels like it’s being under utilized.

Argh I feel like we are all ants swarming some larger bug! Sick of the cluster kitten of particle effects! Exclamation mark!

Greatsword Stance?

in Human

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

I prefer the female stance over the male stance.

One thing to note is that it’s not totally being dragged on the floor… you’d have to be one strong freaking woman to hold it that low in a position like that, dear god.

In my experience it’s actually fairly easy to hold it that way. The higher you hold it the harder it is to carry.

Too much nerding it out in the back yard with me weapon…/nolife


Don’t like how my character has his weapon behind him and most of his body facing towards the enemy though. Kinda asking to get hit/stabbed w/e.

Anyone play Dark Souls 2 lately? A stance similar to the way the character holds a broadsword/longsword with two hands in that game would be okay. It’s a fairly neutral stance. The character also needs to look aggressive with the bent legs and wide stance ready to act look.

I’d pay for that stance Anet.

Edit: Just in case anyone wants to know, the female stance is a real stance. It’s called the tail/long tail/dragons tail stance. Plus all the other names I’m sure it has.

I wish female humans held it like that, the way they drag greatswords behind them is sort of dumb…

I don’t have any experience with greatswords… But come on, dragging it with you is in no way practical in combat :P. You leave yourself completely open to attacks , and no matter how fast you are, you won’t be parrying anything from that position. Not even a super slow guy trying to hit you with one of those weights that you have to lift , that is actually too heavy for him to use :P.

Then again, I never held, or see anyone hold/use a greatsword. I’d imagine they’re at least twice as heavy as an average sword, though.

Anyone inexperienced or lacking the strength or co-ordination to use one will be slow.
Compare the strength of a person who has only just begun lifting weights to someone who has been lifting for years. The ole gym veteran can lift way more weight up with ease that the newbie can’t even get off the ground. Thus being able to move more weight faster. Also there is your body knowing how to react through practice and such/experience. A boxer can throw a punch way faster than someone who does not train or is not as experienced. When it comes to bigger weapons more strength and training = more speed.

Plus many great swords are only around 3-7 kgs or something around those numbers.

This is through my experience and logic. Though someone might tell you something different.

Add Grungy Hairstyles / Faces

in Human

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

Indeed. Hating the supermodel look.

Need more warriorish hair. Like the medium length hair with the braid down the front from Skyrim. With or without the braid is cool.

I use the cash shop long hair on my Human male but it looks somewhat girly.

For faces, they are all too feminine. Need more grungy/tough looking ones.

Oh but you did miss the zerg, zerg and more zergs. But don’t worry, I’m sure there are plenty more cluster kittens for you to enjoy sometime in the future.

Also an in your face lesbian kissing scene right at the end if you’re into that kind of thing.

Did I mention zergs? Also IMO no real likeable characters. Seriously, if they all died my Gw2 world would keep on turning.

Someone should create a guild just to deal with the kittens. Gotta protect the people who don’t know how to PvP/WvW that well.

I know the devs say things like this or that character won’t show up but maybe they are just saying that so they don’t ruin the story for us or something. Keeping things interesting and such. Making us stick around to see what is really going on.

Probably shouldn’t believe EVERYTHING the devs say when it comes to future lore and such.

Just saying.

It’s kinda stupid how we are the slowest class when the Warrior can wear the same things as us and remain faster. O_o Why can a Warrior wear heavy armor like us yet be quicker?

Are all Guardians just unfit or something? Should at least keep us on par with Warriors in terms of speed. Can’t we have something like Warrior’s sprint?

Also + 1 to increased swing speed.

Dear ArenaNet, let's rethink Commanders

in Suggestions

Posted by: Templar.3418

Templar.3418

The title Commander should not be given to those who can pay for it. I think that they should be elected on past accomplishments and such. I don’t follow any Commanders as to me they are no one. They paid 100g and now have a blue tick above their heads? I’ve never even heard of these people and I am meant to follow them? Screw that.

The title and blue tick should be something they earn, not something they paid for. They should be chosen by the WvW community. Could make for some interesting in game politics.

Probably because females are better to look at then males or some crap. We need a strong male lead at some point though, one who is strong and of good character. One who does not lose to like 1 or 2 enemies like most NPC’s but tis a killing machine!

Why not put Logan into kill mode or something? Get some more Troy Baker action going on.
