I just want to let you know that I appreciate the inclusion of a transgender NPC, Anet. I’m not trans myself so I can’t speak for the community, but I personally think that this was a big step in the right direction. While it’s a very minor character, it means a lot to me that you saw the thread and took the idea into account.

Eternity is begging for Rev.

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

Why eternity? where is this duality of the revenant?

It’s not really that hard to figure out. As a Revenant, you have two legends you sit on that you switch to back and forth.
1+1 = 2….
The Eternity is two swords in one, which switches depending on time of day.
1+1=2….

See the duality of both?

my warrior has 2 burst skills
1+1=2……..
my ranger has 2 pets
1+1=2….

Kicking... Not Just for Dungeons anymore!

Testudo.4620

Sounds like you attitude may be the problem, or you are doing something else wrong. I join nearly a dozen pugs a day for the last 2 years and have never once been kicked. I can say with 100% certainty that the problem is you. About 30% of those parties are with my necro, so I know for a fact that your class is not the problem.

Would you consider joining the group and saying “Hey guys, thanks for the invite!” an attitude?

idk in my experience people who greet like that are newer and very inexperienced but i wouldn’t kick someone just for being hyperfriendly

Tyria is a world full of prejudice and conflict with little room for luxury and no precedent of surgical procedures at all that I am aware of. Popping a transgender NPC in to the game would make absolutely no narrative sense and bring nothing at all to the game except a giant plot hole

being trans doesn’t require surgery

I would like some major gay male npcs

in Lore

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

It really hurts me when nobody questions the relevance of straight characters but every time someone is gay they have to be relevant, they can’t have any romantic intentions, and they have to have a detailed explanation as to why they should even exist in the first place.

Additionally, and as mentioned before, inclusion is not always a political ploy. Acknowledging my existence is not a political ploy. Giving me heroes to identify with is not pandering for my money. The idea that gay people can be heroic too is not malicious.

I want a Norn version of Laverne Cox to be the one to strike the finishing blow to Mordremoth.

Elite Spec= subclasses: Predict the rest

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

Specializations are about getting what you didn’t have before, so since engineers are already getting hammers for improved melee, i think they will be getting physical skills like warriors.

I’m sure mantras and venoms will be given to other classes and shouts is already confirmed.

Necro has little mobility so maybe their specialization will deal with that, and ranger is confirmed as getting a support specialization to make up for their lack of support. Thief has poor ranged capabilities, which is why I think they’ll be getting rifle.

IDK what warrior and ele are bad at lmao

EDIT: just read a post about thief getting elixirs, and I think that’s a great idea. Makes sense yo

Team Queue vs. Ranked Queue

in PvP

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

If we get rid of hotjoin and get people to do ques, we’ll have actual match making.

why should we get rid of hot joins? they are for fun, sometimes you know you have 5 mins and you want to just jump in… if they would go unranked arena, they would waste 2+ mins in queue and left the match after another 3 mins leaving their team in 4, this is really what would you like to see? I don’t…

who seriously logs in for 5 minutes to play pvp? time to get realistic.

I want to be able to pop into a hotjoin for 2+ minutes, die immediately, and then come to the forums to discuss balance for the rest of the time.

while there are a lot of bad players out there, I find the pvp ‘experts’ more annoying than the noobs personally.
If you are good you carry if you are bad you get carried. If you are bad and have no idea that you are bad you kitten about other people being bad.

ya realize that just being good doesn’t mean you can carry a bunch of new players against legit teams, right?

What Legendaries Are You Hoping For?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

I’m hoping for some weapons without a “sheathed” model, but rather, that get summoned out of thin air when you draw them, with wicked effects for putting them away and calling them of course ^.~

Even so i’m more hoping for legendary armour pieces that will give your character effects like Liadri, or some more subtle ones, assuming you can dye em….

Now I feel like designing one of each weapon… nuh.. dont >.< too many achieves yet to get.

if you can’t see them while they’re sheathed, it would create an advantage in wvw and pvp where you won’t know what build your opponent is probably running based on their weapons

Will Tribal armor be back?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

IDK why people ‘coming back from a break’ are upset they can’t get the tribal armor. it was in the game very early, it’s not like it was there while you were gone.

also,

Perhaps it’s because that armor set along with two other sets were only found in the old PvP reward chests that are now removed? Also, some players just don’t like PvP no matter how enticing the reward, so they might feel left out if there’s no other way to obtain it.

yes but it’s the implication that they couldn’t get it while they were gone and not because they don’t like pvp. otherwise they would just say they don’t like pvp.

From what I saw, your camera won’t move when you cast this and you’ll have to rotate it quick enough to not get disoriented in combat. This seems tedious, can’t the camera just stay behind you when you cast it?

It will be longer for the beta since the DEMO AT PAX will be in 6 weeks.

That’s true but I believe MO used the words beta when discussing the pax gameplay.

It goes like this : DEMO->ALPHA->BETA->Release

That’s sometimes true. I rewatched the interview and I didn’t hear MO say beta… or demo for that matter, I probably heard the word beta from wooden or mattvisual. In any case, the game is most likely in beta state now, but we’ll find out for certain in a few weeks.

if we’re not even seeing demos yet how can you be so sure it’s in beta o_o

i actually thought it odd that the world wasn’t ripped apart when we destroyed the elder dragon zhaitan, because, according to the lore, that should have happened. so it would actually make sense if gleam had absorbed it’s power imo, so yeah, i totally think we are going to meet her in HoT. not sure if it’s that dragon though, it doesn’t really look that much like a crystal dragon.

how does a completely unprecedented magical act “make sense”

New Allies: Mursaat

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Testudo.4620

Testudo.4620

Did the Mursaat really do anything bad? Way I remember it, we removed them and opened the door for Primordius to release the titans (destroyers) into the world at the behest of Khilbron (who sank his kingdom into Zhaitan’s realm where he was turned into the Lich).

I think the Mursaat were actually good guys that went about it the wrong way.

I could see them aiding us after 250 years of rebuilding after their sounding defeat at the hands of the flameseeker prophecy. They’ve probably been struggling against Mordemoth’s influence ever since Khilbron betrayed us.

Titans and Destroyers aren’t the same thing. Titans were created in the Domain of Anguish and Destroyers are minions of Primordus.

I assume that this expansion will end with us killing Mordremoth. after that, there’s little reason for the living world to stick around in that area. Maybe another dragon or enemy will become a threat we’ll need to deal with in the living world.
