lol get good mr thief :P

I prob got more hours played on ranger than you m8, despite thief being my main :P

P.S still waitin for that screenshot of a Sand Lion :P

In this day and age it should be easy to implement.

Hello,
I would like to make a suggestion to have Soulbeasts Aura’s change color depending on the archetype that has been melded with the Ranger. What I mean by this for those that are not aware, there will be 5 different archetype of pet stats and depending on what archetype the pet you meld with belongs to will determine the stats you are given, there are archetypes for power, condi, healing etc, see link below for a better understanding.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Soulbeast#Pet-determined_skills

Now what I would like to suggest is this:

Stout Archetype : Toughess & Vitality = Aura color Purple
Deadly Archetype : Condition & Precision = Aura color Green
Versatile Archetype : Vitality & Concentration = Aura color Yellow
Ferocious Archetype : Power & Ferocity = Aura color Red
Supportive Archetype : Vitality + Healing = Aura color Blue

The main reason for this change for me is mainly cosmetic, I will be making 2 Soulbeast rangers, one condi and one power, and I want them to look thematically different. We have already seen color aura’s used in a similar way with Revenant, I would love to see it used again here, it would also allow for more visual information in PvP/WvW to get an idea of what you maybe up against.

Why should i pay 30 USD for the POF power Creep.

Because clearly you want the new elite specs or you wouldnt be asking for them.

Holland.9351:

Found the Sand Lion on the east edge of the map next to the road.

Where is the pic of the actual lion tho? :P I am just as interested in that.

Strafe is in the final tier of mount Masteries /s

I’m not a fan of either of these, I’m hoping we can have an option to use the HoT launcher art and character select screen background instead. Just putting it out there.

Oldgrimm.8521:

has a dev clarified, if an opponent entering stealth lose its marked status on their head?

will an opponent be marked or unmarked upon leaving stealth status,

thanks

It’s possible they may remain marked in stealth and visable only to the deadeye, I forget what game I played using this mechanic but it would make a lot of sense to me to use it here.

I agree with the terrible rewards part of the OP’s post.

Would be nice to have an option per character to do this or not.

We should all listen to the OP he has played all 5 maps /s

If I could just move weapon skill slots around like we can with utilitys I would be very happy, not being able to do so feels like pre 2005.

I would hate to be a new player in this game, even as a 5 year Vet this stuff gets extremely confusing.

If you only have the core game then play backline Necro, if you have HoT then play Reaper, tagging is Ez, staying alive is also Ez.

Offair.2563:

Poor zerglings.

This ^ boohoo no more no brainless press 1 for EZ loot, now they will have to actually press some other buttons.

is this for pve and pvp players poll?
wvw players dont mind this stuff tbh……..

Speak for yourself, you do not speak for me, the WvW community or the PvP community.

you envy this guy?

No it’s fugly.

good

ill tell you a secret then, the reason why these threads exists is because they want to forge that stuff asap

wanna know what happens when most people forged it?
on WvW?

i wont speak for you then, ill make you think it for yourself

Not everyone leaves after they get rewards… players that do come to WvW just for rewards can leave afterwards, I do not care.

C Cspace Cowboy.5903:

I’m sorry but the WVW cost and time vs PVE cost and time is way out of balance and asnine.

PVE raid wings are 4-6 hours a week if you’re in a good group, and if you’re going for legendary, you get into a good group, or pay for runs.

4 to 6 hours a week max.

With WvW armor, you need a minimum of 30 hours a week if you are unranked. If you are up one tier, its 24 hours a week. And that’s just to grind max diamond each week.

Without a different skin like Pve got, this is dumb as hell.

Once again proving Anet cares nothing about WvW players.

What he said ^ , even I as a Diamond legend I spend around 12 hours a week to max out tickets, the pain must be real for lower ranks. It’s very clear to me that WvW requires far more time invested to to get a full set of Legendary Armor. I keep seeing people compare WvW to PVE in terms of how many weeks it takes, the amount of weeks is just the tip of the iceberg, think about it in terms of how many hours each take…

Firebaall.5127:

2) How is Anet going to address the issue concerning people that had significant progress finished on their weekly WvW chests before this update, and not being able to acquire the new weekly ticket cap because of it?

They will probably ignore it like it didn’t happen.

If your account is worth over 100k on GW2 efficiency I would say you are rich regardless of the amount of gold you have in your bag.

Static.9841:

I don’t think you’ve thought this through. Bountiful theft is useless on DE.

He has certainly thought it through, I think it’s you that does not understand the mechanics of Mark.

Perhaps the mark should only become visable to the player that is marked once they take damage from the deadeye that placed that mark.

Poor Rai, you didn’t even mention the missing underwater utilitys, its pretty disgraceful the state they have left Rev in tbh, I feel for you.

reddie.5861:

rifle thief is slow thief every thief that doesnt have mobility is meat for most of classes out there.

Except you can build rifle thief no not be slow… there are options out there, and in Tuesdays patch we may well see speed become baseline if they remove speed signets.

Remove armor values from armors, put armor values as baseline into proffesions, then let me wear whatever I want.

Not every other class, take a look at revenant underwater, they have no utilitys at all, it’s a joke really, but yeah I hope to not see that repeated with deadeye.

Exciting times ahead, WvW needed a new level of spice, and this is kinda spicy, I like it.

VaaCrow.3076:

this will be interesting, i look forward to the change, its only within your territory so should be entertaining

My deadeye will be waiting for you when you flying over head and shoot you down like a duck :P this is going to be hilarious.

McKenna Berdrow.2759:

If you have reforged either the PvP or WvW ascended armor you will need to earn a new piece of PvP or WvW ascended armor.

Reforged ascended armor will not work.

Does it matter if any skins were transmuted onto the ascended gear? And will any runes/sigils/infusions/skins be lost on upgrading it to legendary?

No it does not matter, you can use it.

Grant, this is amazing news, but I have one issue that I would really really like resolved, the Mistforged Triumphant Hero’s Ascended Armor is stuck with a blue glow/particle effects to it, this makes it extremely difficult to match to legendary weapons for example, it leaves very little room for customization, if somhow you could enable that blue to be dyed different colors I would be more than happy, keep up the good work.

Panda.1967:

I wonder when people are going to realize that ANet doesnt do leaks… 99% of the time the “leaked” information on guildwars updates are fabrications.

Everything you just said is fabrication…

54 kills no achieve.

I’m fine with it costing whatever it costs, but what I’m not fine with is the fact that it is purple and I cannot change that, great if you are a Mesmer or some female meta thief but how on earth does this fit a necro? we wait 5 years for a legendary trinket and they give us this… so sick of all the purple in this game. I would quit this game over this if there was something better to play, that’s how annoyed I am right now.

I’m so annoyed it turned out to be purple, this does not fit any of my main characters at all, I was annoyed back in the day when mawdrey was purple and I couldnt change its aura, but this is now next level, now I cannot begin to describe how annoyed I am without getting myself banned.

Aeolus.3615:

Then explain me where do i get the Marks needed…

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Grandmaster_Weaponsmith%27s_Mark

Maybe we are talking on diferent things then :\ becouse thes ascended need the 3X marks to get it…and to craft those marks player needs the crafting at 500?

If yest then crafting is needed to to get ascended.

The first set of ascended gear is t2 which is the one that requires marks, but you can bypass getting that by getting exotic t2 instead, then u unlock ascended t3, which requires no marks or crafting.

To be even more clear, there is 2 paths to t3, you can either get ascended t2 or exotic t2, both unlock t3, which requires no crafting.

Aeolus.3615:

i wont get crafting @500 wich meant wont need nor cant use the ascended stuff, so tickets are useless for me as well the ticks are.

I dont care about skins.

Not sure if you realise you can get t3 ascended armor without ever having to craft.

I will prob stop caring after I get full t3 medium skins.

Gop.8713:

I’m here to complain about the fact that the decay timer update discourages scouting . . .

You don’t need to sit in a tower to scout anymore, watchtowers will do the job, you can scout while roaming around and easily keep up participation, long story short, the days of sitting in a tower half afk to scout are over, and good riddance to that.

Artaz.3819:

Better to just add extra WvW Skirmish Claim Tickets to the Skirmish Chest (key word Skirmish). It then incentives Veteran/High-Rank players to continue playing which means more people play more because the High-Ranks are the ones tagging up throughout the week. .

Agree with This ^

I really, really hope this means we will be able to play as Risen in the xpac, Ive been wanting this for years now, it’s exciting to think it could be a possibility.

I wouldn’t suggest getting to excited about that. My own opinion is that it is highly unlikely. I think they are teasing playing alongside NPC risen allies, not a PC. Woodenpotatoes has laid out some really good speculative arguments why a new playable race is probably NOT in the works, many of which would still apply to Risen/Undead/Mordrem.

To late I am excited :P I actually think they really need to give us a new playable race for this 2nd xpac, people were disappointed that we didn’t get one with the first xpac, so I’m hoping they are going to address that this time.

Also a new race would mean they sell a lot of character slots, plus the fact we are 5 years deep into this game, there are plenty of good reasons why we should have a new race imo.

Level 40 solo guild hall here, totally doable, just expensive.

Vesuvius.9874:

From what I can gather, it looks like we’re searching for allies among the Elder Dragon minions (specifically Risen) as a way to fight Balthazar.

Some friends become enemies, some enemies become friends.

I really, really hope this means we will be able to play as Risen in the xpac, Ive been wanting this for years now, it’s exciting to think it could be a possibility.

Rank 10k ultimate dominator and I still enjoy WvW, don’t know what your problem is, this thread is just a thinly veiled rant that you cannot get tickets fast enough, prob your third thread on same subject now isn’t it? give it a rest…

Carighan.6758:

Sarrs.4831:

It’s really not hard at non-peak hours. Capture camps. If you can’t capture camps, you need to learn to play.

Isn’t a camp only 2 minutes?

No, a camp is an objective, therefore it’s 10 mins, like I said it’s a l2p issue. The first rule of L2p being… understand the system of the mode you are playing…

VaaCrow.3076:

jumping

Yep still plenty of time to CJ before decay

In the meantime Just send me the loot m8

The changes are fine.

The changes are fine, deal with it.

Vegeta.2563:

Now it’s going to be near impossible to earn pips at non-peak hours.

L2p issue.

So many bads in this thread, the changes are barely noticeable to me solo roaming, I have no issue at all keeping my participation, if you are having trouble its a l2p issue, fact.
