Guild Wars 2

Nick.6972:

I love people talking about realism and practicality in a game where Bows shoots unicorns.

I know right.
As if GW2 is the only game that does this. While in fact it’s as old as video games itself.

Well fudge me.. Missed it XD

Anyone back to the topic.

In regards to why so many Asura have to be so cute, Taimi explains why:
“I routinely apply my cuteness as a weapon and/or tool…”

I never heard this before. Did you use a male or female Asura?

It’s hilarious people make such a huge problem out of something so insignificant.

I really like the female armors.
But then again, I’m a guy. What do I know

Just turn them off….

That one creeps me out tbh

Lilith your asura is so adorable, mind if I steal that look?

No mix n match = no buy

Why the hell do they have access to all the new hairstyles by default!?

afaik, everyone looks bald with headgear.

Vasticon.7238:

Don’t do it. Their intelligence is all they have going for them in a generalized way. It’s entirely possible for any other race to be as smart as an Asuran, it’s just not as common. They’re ugly little ankle-biter rats. Aesthetic appeal is what this game was built on (see dye system/wardrobe) and they’re freakin’ atrocious-lookin’. I personally don’t find them cute, but even if you made that argument, cuteness has no place in a world of constant danger and battle. Asuran master race was a term coined by people who made a mistake in creating one — it’s a defense mechanism created solely for the purpose of staving off depression and guilt.

oh the ignorance…

Palador.2170:

I’d rather see a special weapon added for each class. Something they and only they can use, with special things to do in order to craft and/or upgrade it.

Mesmer: Crystal Ball
Necromancer: Scythe
Elementalist: Rune Blade
Ranger: Claw Blades (pair)
Engineer: 1 handed Hammer
Thief: Whip
Warrior: 2 handed Axe
Guardian: Flail

Ele get to have me?

lmao

SaintSnow.6593:

Just putting this out to you all, but China’s release has a couple hairstyles we do not have. One includes a ponytail and I mean a regular one down the back, so possibly that style and the others may come here.

Do you have a link or an image to attach?

I would like to see this as well.

Paradox.5498:

1. Spear as land weapon (or alternatively, polearm)
2. Main hand torch for necros
3. Sharks with frickin’ laserbeams attached to their heads
4. and 5. —> see 3.

I see what you did there

At this point I would be happy with any new zone. Just something, anything!

1. One handed Spear (on land!)
2. Scythe
3. Chakrams
4. Whip
5. Crossbow

Took some time to figure out a Mix n Match combination that only used one piece of a set that I really liked. But there it is, hope you like it

Alina Brightfire – Elementalist – Sorrows Embrace

Head – Light Aurora Helmet (Orr temple karma set)
Shouders – Trickster Shoulders (gemstore set)
Chest – Winged Tunic (crafted armor)
Gloves – Fused Gloves (Living Story reward)
Pants – Feathered Pants (crafted armor)
Shoes – Masquerade Boots (crafted armor)

This is not what I wanted the Dungeon subforum to become. :’(

What could possibly be wrong with harmless topics like this?

Lilith Ajit.6173:

I just want to remind everyone that no entry will be considered for the prizes if the armors they use have multiple pieces from the same set. If you are using the vigil chest, you cannot also use the vigil leggings. If you are using the winged gloves, you cannot use another piece of armor from that set as well.

So far things are looking great! Yay!

Oh kitten , forgot that.
I guess I will have to sit this one out then

But you have so many characters!

Surely you can come up with a combo on one of them ^^

I’d also like to point out that your armor combos in your screens do not have to be in combat. What this means is you don’t even have to waste Transmutation charges, because you can simply equip any piece of gear even if it’s a level 1 to achieve your combo.

I will see what I can do

[IGNORE this one, I used too many parts of the same armor]
My necro Valeris Lumina.
Location: Caudacus Manor

Only one entry allowed? Oh man you are killing me.
It’s going to be hard to pick :P

Most females are dudes IRL , skirts are better to look at.

By that logic, where are the super revealing tops for my male characters? What if I’d like the option to stare at my warrior’s finely sculpted physique?

It is true though…
Wether it’s also the other way around I don’t know.

girl = Guy In Real Life

Lishtenbird.2814:

• You do nothing and simply wait for bosses to die from age – yes, you deserve nothing.

The irony is that this is exactly what you have to do after you killed your boss. Running to the other bosses and helping the people there will only give the boss more health and diminish your chances of success.

Very well then, I stand corrected.

Aegis.9724:

Do control builds even exist in the first place in gw2 pve?

Nope, Anet only wants the dps role. Support, control, healing, tank and every other role are not welcome in Anet’s game.

“I already got the item, forget about everyone else!”

I’m all for content that discourages zerging, but this is just bad design imo.

When there are 100+ people present, who decides who gets to play? Everyone wants to participate, you can’t expect half of those people to just stand in the middle not doing a thing.

You need about 5-8 players on a boss, there are 6 bosses (less as more bosses get killed). Yet there are easily 100+ players present (courtesy of the megaserver system).
That’s just bound to fail.

What they should have done was make it so all bosses had to be killed at the same time (with a short window). This will force people to split up, organise and take on all bosses at the same time. Even when split up there are still too many players on one boss though so the scaling needs to be adjusted as well.

I agree zerging should be discouraged from time to time. But just not participating and waiting for other people to do the work for you should never be encouraged.

Both female and male asura are just as big. As evidenced here:

Bunkers rock!

U mad bro?

Prestige usually results in a bunch of sought after items being available to only a select few.

I think I’ll pass on prestige.

@Goldenwing
52 alts? Jesus…
That’s quite an accomplishment

Congrats!

YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO ZERG!"

Then Anet shouldn’t have introduced the megaserver system and put hundreds of people into the same zone.

thats was not the point of that you melon juice! its was supposed to make the zones more active. specialy before china release. would like to play a game that seem populated but only in queens dale are some train farmers? no you would think despite the scaling nobody is there and the game is empty.
the megaserver is only for that aspect not to zerg.
it´s supposed to gather people and give them the sense fo an active community.

that CAN result in groups taking on bosses. but its only offers you to form parties or just not to be alone.

this pavilion is anti zerg from the get go. even reading the patch notes you can understand that zerging is pointless, specialy since they said they implemented that event in that way. if you still try zerging then you didn´t read the freakin thing or you are that stubborn and lazy to keep zerging. I don´t want you to call you idiotic because that would even invalidate your view even more.

YES i get it when GW2 launched all bosses were zerg fests. and that was actually a mistake. they should have waited a bit longer and made encounter like tquatle and the worm earlier, to show yeah these are the freakin raid like end game content.

Anet tries to correct this but they alway run into stubborn people like you, unable to adjust.
you what in nature that would mean? survival of the fittest. not adjsuting means death. and in an MMO it means you are doin it wrong and will never again be on top.
if you want you wallet overflow with gold and ectos then get the kitten goin and start an organized attempt and stop zerging.

What’s with the petty insults? I thought we were having a normal conversation here.
I will leave you to your ranting.

Not this topic again..

Nothing wrong with these items being available again. And this coming from someone who acquired most of those items during their LS.

Bellyboomer.3048:

The way I see it, the persuit of their intelect; to the point where it’s almost cruel; is their trademark. Looking down on other races, little consideration for others, the succes of the experiment is often taken before the safety of the crewe…

What you are describing is the inquest.
And maybe some bad apples here and there, every race has those.

In the end wether someone is cute is entirely subjective. Many people think Asura are cute, some don’t. Lets leave it at that

Suns Dusk.7201:

My guardian, thief and mesmer.

edit: Guardian and thief in SE, mesmer in CM. The 2 last ones at the start of story mode because they are afraid of dungeons …

Wow it’s like your guardian’s hair glows

pepebart.5187:

I think Anet’s devs just saw how cute an asura necro could be with the trickster mask (actually giving you those “cat’s eye”) and have made this available for all asuras <3

This is what I am talking about, why do Asura always need to be cute for you guys?

Because why not?

Being cute is basically their trademark.

I liked getting those skins too. Because of those chests, I basically got the Volcanus skin for free :P

Nilkemia.8507:

Sigh, the “prestige” argument again. “Forget them, I got mine!”

Pretty much this.

Nope they abandoned us long ago.

Asgaeroth.6427:

Windu The Forbidden One.6045:

I can understand the pvp chest being gone. But Anet should have replaced it with something.

Are you guys being sarcastic or did this many people really not notice that it was replaced. The PVP reward tracks give loot about 5x better rate than the pre Apr 15 chests system, and it’s the same stuff just standardized salvage mats and permanent skin unlock. Literally zero downside, only buffs.

What in the world do PvP reward tracks have to do with Achievement rewards?

I guess slavery is legal in Tyria then, because lets face it, that’s exactly what it is.

I can understand the pvp chest being gone. But Anet should have replaced it with something.

Check the PvP Achievement Reward Chest page on the wiki.

These chests are no longer awarded. If this chest is till in inventory, they are no longer usable.

I thought Kasmeer wasn’t a noble anymore.
