Class change

in Suggestions

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

I think the only way this could be logically done is in a means similar to this:
You may only change your class to another class of the same tier.

Example:
Warrior → Guardian

Thief → Ranger
Thief→Engineer
Ranger→Engineer

Elementalist → Necromancer
Elementalist → Mesmer
Mesmer→ Necromancer

In order to swap you have to be level 80 and finished the Arah Story line, (Gw1 you had to be ascended or closer to the stars or Hunted to switch classes) so killing Zaitan sounds about fair. And you can only do one of the above combinations. Cool down of once a month.

Infusion Question

To be safe, I would have your Ranger do the upgrade. Whatever the results are, you’ll know for future reference.

That was quick, thanks for your fast response; i guess that would be the safest route.

Infusion Question

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

Did some searching on the forums and all i found was “to pricey i want to quit” crap.

I use my Engineer as my primary and my main money maker, I created a Quiver of Thousand Arrows today and my Mighty Infusion. My question is, If I were to add the infusion right now to the Quiver of Thousand Arrows, will it change from Account bound to soul bound. The technical description reads:

Account Bound
Soul Bound on use.

Technically speaking I’m not using it, Im just upgrading it…but not everything in the game is black and white … I would love to be able to use this on my Ranger (not up to level 80 yet)

Thanks for your help and happy holidays

Map Completion fix

in Suggestions

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

Upon completing the map at 100% a character receives a gold star and the two gifts and a title. The problem I see is that the gold star is only for that character. What I am suggesting is making that gold star transferable to all characters. This would allow for people to reacquire the gifts if they want while allowing us casual players to work on our alt characters with out feeling demoted for not having 100% map completion across all four+ characters. For myself, I have been using my characters to specialize in one way or another.

My engineer being my first character is my worker that does everything.
My warrior is my show off character with legendaries/ rare armour skins
My necromancer is for pvp
My thief is for wvwvw

I really do not want to complete the whole map 3 more times to have all my characters on par. I am not asking or suggesting that the map be fixed to 100% for all characters, just that the golden star be transferable to all characters to show that the users account has finished the map on at least one character. The title that goes with it works this way so I don’t see why the star shouldn’t as well.

GW1 Favor of the Gods benefits GW2

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

The only human God i can see working out at the current moment would be Dhuum or Menzies since those two are banished Gods who have not been officially killed off yet.
Dhuum would be the easiest since he was used to ban accounts with in GW1, and has been trying to escape back to the surface. So with the human God’s ignoring the players, allowing Dhuum to intervene would be acceptable and not contradict any lore.

for those who dont know who Dhuum is, Dhuum is the God that preceded Grenth as the God of Death but could not be killed by the other Gods so he was locked away. Towards the end of GW1 he tries to break loose of his bonds. He is frequently seen in GW1 when an account is banned. (not a spoiler since this is gw2 and you are expected to know this by now since it was in gw1)

Character Account Transfers

in Suggestions

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

Going off the assumption that you mean for characters to go from account a to account b.

That would be a major issue for banned accounts since all those who committed offenses would have to do is transfer the characters they want from banned account A to unbanned account B. Granted there is a solution to that but its still a loophole that can be abused. You also run into a security risk for people hacking accounts to obtain characters that have legends and other valuable goods. Then of course you run into a cash farm in real life by selling level 80 characters to newbies.

Your idea has good intentions but I don’t think it would be in best interest with the current community.

Wolfey.3407

I would love more skins for legendaries…
The only thing preventing me from making any legendaries that i can use are:
1) The rifle is Charr themed and im an Asura
2) Rest of the weaps are to girly for my liking…

I would love for future legendaries to have a story line too, something that explains what makes them so legendary. The current legendaries with the exception of Flameseeker Prophecies don’t really have a background lore.

Guild Capes

Wolfey.3407

I would like to see guild capes come back, maybe as a back slot item that can be crafted and then just do what you do with Armour by having the guild emblem/ design placed on top of the cape.

Something like:
Leather Worker- Cape recipe
Mystic forge recipe for rarities from common-ascended level
Take it to Guild Designer to have the design placed on it.
Equip it as a back slot item and rep your guild.

just an idea o.o

So you pretty much want them to make a fool out of themselves by deleting a major part of the lore and re-writing the whole human storyline as well as redoing the character creation for the human race and going through the game combing and and fixing all content that refers to the gods being gone. It would be like JK rewriting the Harry potter storyline to bring back Voldemort because people want the series to continue. Could she do it? sure! would she? No, because it would be come another NFL Brett Favre scenario of “O great here we go again”. It ruins a writers credibility when you contradict your lore. It’s one of the writers 7 deadly sins that you just don’t do.

GW1 Favor of the Gods benefits GW2

Wolfey.3407

Would run into a huge issue with the favor of the gods into gw2 with the following reasons.

1) God’s are currently turning their backs on the humans.
2)Charr don’t really acknowledge the human Gods so it would be sacrileges for a charr to benefit from human gods.
3) Norn believe in the animal spirits so it would be sacrileges for Norn to benefit from human gods.
4) Asura believe in Eternal Alchemy and the idea of human gods go against their beliefs so that would be sacrileges for them to benefit from human gods.

Sylvari are open minded so in the end only 2 races would benefit from human gods
Sylvari and Humans.

I don’t like the idea of GW1 influencing game play outside of cosmetic skins, GW1 will not always be officially supported and i highly doubt in a couple of years there will be much control over the gw1 player base. It will be pretty much like diablo 1.

Story line wise its been noted already, the gods have turned their backs on the world.

Character Select Backgrounds

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

I did some searching and digging around and did not find anything on the gw2 forums so I’m tossing this idea out here. This was brought up in GW1 and pretty much ignored, hopefully this can be brought into consideration.

When you login into Guild Wars 2 and chose your character to play you have a back ground that’s dominantly white with a faintly paints castle and other scenery. The idea I purpose is more or less changing it based on a couple of factors depending on which route ANET deems to be more player friendly.

A) The background would change based on the season with a option to revert back to original so those players who find holidays to be against their moral beliefs can revert it back to default.

B) The background would change based on the current zone that their lead character is currently at with an option for players to revert back to the original background if the location that their lead character is at is to “ugly or morally wrong for them”.

C) Racial/ Class based backgrounds that would change to adapt to your current characters Race and class with an option to revert back to the original background for those who view their race/class “morally wrong for them”.

D) Guild Based backgrounds that would be done in their guilds colors and their guild banner being the dominant image, With a revert back to the original background for those who view their guild “morally wrong for them”

shouldn’t have to put morally wrong for every option but ‘ey that’s the world we live in these days and that seems to be the base root complaint for everything.

If i had to chose any of the options i would go with option A or B. I would love the ability to login and have my character select screen all decked out for the season or have something new to look at instead of the same painting every single time.

Feedback, Ideas, suggestions are welcome.
Bashing Anet/ bringing up bugs/ off topic is not welcome.

For those who are constantly QQ about precursors dropping i guess anet has to delete all monsters from the game since they have a tiny % to drop one lol… Sort of sad this the society that we live in, where the people get on their hands and knees and beg for people in power to give them everything because they do not have the incentive to do something on their own.

As ANET has stated in the past, all of their events are scheduled based on population pooled from their servers to accompany the greater amount. They have also stated that this one time system of events is not guaranteed to be used for every event, Just like the Halloween Event this Event was also done months ago and that they were under a strict time line to push those 2 events out. If you want change wait till Wintersday (guild wars Christmas/ <insert your religious winter holiday here> ) when they are able to apply the adaptations that are needed.

To quote a famous business man:
“Luck and timing will ensure success, so be prepared for luck”

The time was posted way in advance, a great majority of the complaints i have seen on the forums fall in the category of Lazy Slobs who assumed this event will be pointless. For those people I say this: Go Back To WoW and stay there, good riddance.
For those people who missed the event due to personal reasons, I’m terribly sorry that you missed the event but you don’t deserve any special treatment. Just because your Government or culture may spoon feed you everything that you could ever want does not mean that anet is required to.

The ONLY people who deserve any compensation are those who got dcd at the end of the event or the event freezing up as was the case on two servers. Those people should have a waypoint mailed to them that will allow them to open the chest and get their chance at great gear and leave.

Hopefully this will teach those spoiled WoW brats not to assume that the whole event will “be pointless and suck”.

p.s. i missed the event but im not crying about it lol

Happy Halloween Guild Wars 2 players and staff!
I hope everyone has a great Halloween and a safe one.

I really would like to thank ArenaNet, NCSoft and any other staff who did an awesome job pulling this event off. Not many people understand how hard it really is to pull of an event like this. In comparison to past Guild Wars 1 Holiday Events I am quite thrilled to see this event broken down into 4 parts instead of “show up at midnight and idle for 24 hours.” With that being said there are a few things that could have and should have been fixed but for a starting point this event went over rather well.
I can’t wait to see what you guys have planned for Wintersday!

Happy Halloween to everyone and thanks again ArenaNet & NCSoft.

Weird they never had all these issues with the Guildwars 1 events, i wonder what changed to make Anet have so many issues with their in game events and festivals etc..

I guess its just the state of Game development these days.

Done completely differently
GW1: Closed Map private instances, Open towns

GW2: Open Map, Open Towns

That and GW1 recycled a lot of their Halloween decorations so they had the files presaved, all they had to do was replace the hat files and change out the quests the npcs offered. The Original Halloween on GW1 and Original Wintersday Festival took a while to push out too.

Seriously people, UK time is NOT GMT at the moment!

We are GMT + 1

It is NOT currently 2:30 GMT, it is 1:30 GMT.

Its 2:30 in the UK right now. I’m in it. and releasing an update at 4-5am really craps on your EU playerbase.

I don’t get why we have EU and US servers, I really dont

Are you kidding?! At this time the majority okitten players are in bed for example?! While most US are up? Seriously, how can you not understand US and EU servers?!?!

I don’t get what you think i’m saying… but i’ll lay it out for you.

Event releases on EU servers at 9pm CET
Event releases on US servers at 9pm PST

Not, 8pm US — 4am EU

What is the point of having EU servers if everything is based off US times?

Maybe so that EU players can play with other EU players because they are in the same timezone?

But all changes and updates take place in US time on EU servers. Thats my point

Soo what you are saying is that everyone should jam the European servers to play the new content 6 hours in advance? :o? awesome idea! lets flood a couple english and french and german servers with all americans and cause those natives to be upset for not being able to play.

Can they chose a little better time that’s a little more fair to the Western and Eastern Hemisphere? of course The argument for one timezone over another is heavily flawed though. Especially when there are plenty of sources to find out what the current PST time is by going to the in game clock and setting it to “Server Time” which is PST.

Just remember some of us game’s won’t forget this. I for one am done I really don’t care if the stupid patch comes out or not? As far as I am concerned your first event is major epic failure:( I know for one i am too mad to play now I was really looking forward to this. Your worse then Blizzard when it comes to info? At your next event, you need to seriously improve on you communication between us your gamers and you the creators. Allot of us wasted an entire day, and yea we have have every right to miffed. And up to now i did nothing praise you game well not anymore consider this a “bad mark” against you that will be passing on to other gamers IF they ask MY opinion about Gw2.

Botting Solutions

in Suggestions

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

I understand this may get flamed with a “here we go again” mentality; but ‘ey, it’s better to say something then to stay quiet.

I have noticed that the Arena Net Team/Guild Wars 2 Team is stretched very thin when it comes the more popular issues such as:
~Account Hack reports
~Rage Quitting Refunds
~Broken Game Content
I can’t really blame them for not being able to do everything at once;however, I think the whole company as a whole should explore the option into hiring temporary volunteer staff to help tackle the botting crises in game. I have thought about this on and off the past couple of weeks and have tried to think of a couple solutions to the problems that would arise from the volunteer staff and I believe I have a steady framework to make this work out for the long haul.

Title: Guild Wars 2 Community Volunteer
Abbreviations: G.C.V.
Privileges:
1) G.C.V. in game title,
2) Access to the botting tickets
3) Permissions to temporary ban botters
4) Close out botting tickets
5) Spy mode

Obviously, that is a lot of rights for a single job and I understand that; however, those rights should be enough to help aid the community and the Guild Wars 2/ ANET team.

Some checks and balances for the above rights to prevent any major or serious abuse:
A) Upon agreeing to be part of the G.C.V. you agree that any abuse that can be proven by your actions will result in a 90 day ban of your account and a blacklisting from applying to any NCSOFT and ANET jobs paid or non-paid in the future.

1) Nothing can really be abused with a title, so no real harm there, could be nit picky and enforce a no-wear policy if you are not actively working.

2) You may only view one ticket at a time, publishing or using any information from said tickets is strictly prohibited and will result in the action listed at " A) " above.

3) This is the most controversial power I think the community and ANET will have; however, It is a power that has to be given. To prevent major abuse, this power will work in the method described below labeled “B)”

B) Upon being hired as a volunteer you will have access to a new icon in your in game window that would look like the Arena Net icon. Once clicked this icon will display the list of botting tickets from Oldest to newest. The G.C.V. will be able to click the ticket, a window pops up with the information, underneath all the information provided will be three options.
1) Spy
2) Ban
3) Delete
The spy option once clicked will put the G.C.V. into stealth mode and will allow him/her to monitor the suspected botter. If the individual feels that there is enough evidence to ban the account he/she will proceed to hit the ban button. Once the ban button is clicked, it will activate three functions will be labeled below:
1a) Sends a message to the community managers that an account has been banned by a G.C.V. member with the account name of ____ at 00:00:00 for botting.
2a) It will automatically ban the account for three days.
3a) It will automatically close the ticket out
The third option delete, will only be used if the G.C.V. feels there is not enough proof to ban the suspected botter. This will also send a message to the Community Managers stating that a botting ticket has been closed. Once the ticket has been resolved the G.C.V. will re-appear at their destination that they activated the botting ticket support from.

4) See the section labeled “B)”

5) See the section labeled “B)”

I would imagine that each world would need at least 10 Volunteers. Each volunteer being from a different time zone with the remainders being dumped into the more active time zones. Selections for said jobs would be done via a three part application.
1) Written (up to ANET how they wish to execute this)
2) Activity in game (how active are you really, have you been banned)
3) Activity on the forums (posting/viewing)

Payments:
None, you are a volunteer, your payment is basically having a title and knowing that you are making Guild Wars 2 a better place. You could make this position a stepping stone into the community manager role later on.

Quota:
Even though you are a volunteer you have to be active with your rights or you are basically a useless burden to the team o.O so I would say that you would have to go through at least 15-20% total tickets a week submitted. Divided up by how many G.C.V. and normal staff that should be a reasonable amount of tickets for a volunteer and help relief some of the P.R. stress.

I’m sure there are a couple of flaws in my plan; however, I think this is the best course of action with out introducing to much corruption. Feel free to suggest any ideas you may have to help relieve the pain, Forum Moderators please don’t say “just submit tickets” that’s a given and its also given that you are to swamped with other tasks to help.

Dungeon Damnation

Something has to be done with Immature, Selfish, party leaders who find it cute to rage quit at the very end of a dungeon just so they can laugh at the party for wasting an hour-hour 1/2 of everyone time with nothing to show.

Situation:
Ascalonian Catacombs
Party of 5
Got to the end, finished everything but the final boss, the Leader got mad that it was “taking to long” when the time was pretty fair for a dungeon run. So he just left and had the whole party kicked out of the dungeon.

Solution:
Rework parties so leadership is auto transferred then if anyone leaves:
A) Grenths Damnation: You are a disgrace to your race and you are kitten to walk this earth alone.
Technical Workings: In the last zone of each dungeon this curse will trigger, if you leave a party while in this zone you will be hit with this curse. This curse will do the following:
1) Deduct 666 Karma (you know the saying, Karma is a *)
2) Deduction of 50 Guild Fame (your a disgrace enough said)
3) Prevent you from entering any parties for 2 Hours across any characters. (If you don’t have time to finish what you started then you shouldn’t start anything else :])
4) Storm Cloud effect over the player so everyone knows they are under the effect.

Upon the bosses death this curse is deactivated so that you may freely leave.

B) Upon collection 3 Disgraces on one character your account in one month, your account is banned for 30 days.

Where do the Asura Live?

in Asura

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

Wolfey.3407

Asura have labs which in a way is a large complex that persists of:
1) Library
2) Work Station (lab)
3) Private Quarters
Best proof of this is the 2nd novel where the heroes place the big jora head on the invention and they go to snaffs private quarters to rest before heading out. Before their accession to the above land it doesn’t say or really allude to their houses. (when they lived under ground)

Mounts Please Pretty Pretty please with suger on top!!

4. No Mounts in pvp, maybe WvW

It’s funny, WvW is the only area in the game where mounts would really be useful. Personally I think they should just introduce a new siege engine that is a speedy personnel carrier with little to no weaponry.

That seems like an interesting idea Only question is will there be an HP type system added to it, and if so what would it be and its natural defense/ immunities. Would also bring up the question should high speed collisions into objects deal damage/ armour break to the vehicle?

Short answer: yes to both

The attached picture is my siege Rhino from Age of Conan. With which I could charge groups of players in large scale battles and charge and lay siege to castle walls and gates. This is something that could be easily implemented within the current dynamic battle system GW2 has.

Cool
It shouldn’t be to hard to do outside the basic scripting for the HP/ Armour
they have the Charr tanks, all they would really have to do is disable/remove the cannons. Hopefully they will look into this

Centaur I was not directly talking to you and since you are not the original poster (unless you are using an alternative account in which case shame on you) The original comment by the original poster did not mention WoW nor did your comment mention having friends who did not want to play GW2 because of no mounts

lol… I doubt you read my post at all you probably just skimmed it didn’t like what I said and marked it kitten off topic. Just because you don’t like what I have to say does not mean at all that I am off topic
I’m averaging about 10-15 yellows an hour and off that im hitting 4-5 Ectos.
so 40-50% of the time, granted I’m playing events where there are huge baddie spawns and marking everything to max out my drop chances. Ectos should not be a 100% drop rate as you seem to want :P

I think something like taunt is fine but anything more aggressive than that shouldn’t be added. Also Suggesting that an entire class doesn’t deserve respect cause they don’t really care about your ‘fun’ in a PvP setting is kinda harsh.

+1 on your last point, completely forgot to mention it, very valid too

Inb4 “Quit being greedy and give us +500 health as a healthcare plan”
Inb4 “Bail out bakers with more karma gained”
in all seriousness though, Things really aren’t as bad, I think most of it has to do with poor luck o.O no offense of course.

Ectos, I’m getting 4-5 an hour with little to no effort, just running around orr killing and salvaging.

Vanilla Beans can be farmed via gathering…. Source never used karma to buy baking yet i have like 75-80 of em o.O

Should the pricing be adjusted a little? ya of course
But to say that Anet is being greedy is a bit of a stretch :P It’s not like there is only one method and one method alone to getting something.

Get rid of "Town Clothing" & a few other niggles!

For whatever reason the quote feature is not showing up on this thread so ya… old school style

@Shadowborn.3529
What you are saying is that you do not care about town clothing or know how to properly use it so everyone should have theirs deleted so you feel better about your character? And 2% is a horrid made up statistic lol…. every time i go to Lions Arch I see players with a costume on rather if its the Chefs clothes or the pirates clothes etc..
:) Even if they were going to be deleted you failed to realize the financial mess that would come from that very selfish decision of yours.

1) Compensation to those who bought town clothes
2) Refunds financially which can become very messy in some countries, not everyone pays via Debit x)

To Recap:
1) You don’t like town clothing because you don’t want to use it so it should be deleted from the game so no one can use it.
2) You want to create a ton of work on Anet in terms of scripting and refunding real life cash to everyone.
3) You want to create a massive rage fest for those users who lost content that they actually enjoyed wearing even though they got their cash back (at a way later date).

Please back up your arguments with more logical and non-selfish points then something along the lines of:
“I don’t like this delete it NOW "

I really had to debate if I should bother posting or not; I apologize if this comes off as being rude; however, if your friends or anyone for that matter will NOT play G.W.2. because it doesn’t have mounts then well.. screw them They can rot on WoW.
It’s a very stupid and idiotic reason to be all “ kitten they aren’t a exact photocopy of WoW because they don’t have mounts so I won’t play”.

Ethical Argument:
A) If GW2 had mounts people play
B) If people play for mounts they want more WoW features
C) GW2 becomes WoW with better graphics
If A is true then B is true which proves that C is true.
see the chain of events?

I’m all for mounts; however, if your only argument is that you want your WoW friends to come play GW2 then not only No but Hell No.

Rework your argument and your persuasive skills with your friends and show them there is more to gaming then mounting pixels and riding around a map o.O or suggest a game like GTA for them to play since all they care about is riding in stuff.

My apologies again if this comes off as being rude.

Awesome ambient room in CoF ; not used at all?

Posted by: Wolfey.3407

If you have played Guild Wars form the beginning (not talking about gw2) you know that they do a ton of movie references and pop culture references through out their games… So what if they included a Lord of the Rings easter egg? If we are going off ripoffs then Lord of the Rings jacked a lot of their principal story lines from “The Odyssey” you know the whole journey to fulfill a single goal? But I digress back on topic before the thread gets locked. I would love to see what that room will be used for when Robert gets around to it
