Please; please, please get a lawyer and go to court over this. You will spend a lot of money for a judge to look at you and ask if you tried to get a refund. You answer NO I have my principles! They will look at you and ask how much you have spent on lawyers fees and you will answer I have my Principles!
Case dismissed.

I made an ele about a week ago, and use tomes to power level it, the new trait system is horrible, I don’t know how they ever thought this was a NPE as its a terrible experience, alas sadly its been so long since it came into place, I cannot see Anet ever changing it,

ALL of the minor traits should be able to be unlocked in 1-15 zones, be it world events, map completion etc, its crazy that some low level traits require you to complete higher level zones/world events.

The only thing that works with the NPE is the rewards from personal story.

Th trait change came in six months before the NPE.

I’m starting to believe no one rolled alts between that patch and the npe patch

Seems to be so.

GW2 Sneak Peek @ PAX South.

This is what will happen:

1. Usual suspects will speculate on things that they want to see in this game (expansions, mounts, etc),
2. Other people will note the speculation and throw even more speculation into the mix,
3. At some point, the original speculation will turn into statements of fact by forum members and even promises despite no official word on anything,
4. Anet may or may not make an announcement at PAX,
5. Regardless, the people who made their wild speculations will berate Anet for failing to keep their promises (which were never made) or announcing that expansion which was never on the table and those forum members with overactive imaginations and an inability to discern the difference between speculation and rumour (that they themselves invented) and quantifiable information will flood the forums calling out Anet as liars, indulge in conspiracy theories and claim the game is “dying”.
6. Anybody who calls the fantasists out will be labelled “White Knights” – the new buzzphrase around these parts.
7. Rinse and repeat for next gaming event or “announcement”.

Mailing big items/gold

I have transferred gold to friends/family and never had a problem, they can challenge it if it was just between their own accounts and not something else.
An item like dawn may be a different thing, but if you write up in mail what you will do with it seems to me not to be a problem.

General Consensus on Condition Damage?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

They have mentioned that there are technical issues and if they find what they consider a viable option they will implement it.
If the technical issues are solved you run into the problem of being too powerful. Now 1 good person on a husk at tr-wurm melts it in 25 sec or so. With 2 good people that have non-overlap on conditions it melts in 15 seconds. If all conditions from all players where viable the creatures would not even get off the ground before they where dead. This would apply to everything in game not just those niche mobs we have now with high toughness.

My guess, no boxed expansion . So those that need that $59.99 price tag to be comfortable with what an expansion means are out of luck.
Based on
how we’re setting up a new framework for how an MMO can grow its universe

EDIT: Just in case of misinterpretation I will be really, really happy if they go this route rather than boxed.

When to salvage/MF/sell spare gear?

For me, salvage blues and greens. I now use the copper fed salvage o matic
Salvage yellow armour, mf yellow weapons. Mystic forge salvage kits
Look at the price and either sell (armour and weapons), salvage (armour) or mf (weapons). Black lion kits gotten from dailies monthlies before the change.

Best Established MMO of 2014 - Guild Wars 2

Lotro is owned by Turbine which I found to be entirely greedy. Games like SWToR and pay to walk. You can’t even get a second skill bar without paying to unlock it. Lotro has professions locked out by a pay wall, and areas. DDO has dungeons and classes and races locked out by a pay wall.

Sure those games may have come out with more content. But you pay for that content. It’s not free content.

It’s a daft comparison.

Not entirely true. Turbine offered lifetime subscriptions in Lotro for fixed amount of money. If I recall correctly, that sub was equal to about 15-16 months of subscription. Using myself as an example, I haven’t paid a dime to Turbine after buying the game and lifetime subscription, and thanks to that, I have access to all the content (classes, dungeons, quests, areas) they have released so far. Additionally, I still have leftover free “gems” (using GW2 terms here) to spend on their “gemstore”.

Taking this to GW2, I would have all the game, content, ~20+ char slots, all the bank slots (with bags), all the costumes and skins and majority of other gemstore items. Additionally, I would be given a chunk of free gems (about 500) every month.

If I had spent same money to gems, as I did to Lotro’s lifetime subscription, I would have gotten maybe about ~12k gems. I couldn’t even buy half of the costumes/clothes in gemstore with that.

There was a window after which lifetime subs could no longer be bought. If you where willing to pay in the early days of the game sure, later no chance to get that unless you won one of the USA only lotteries.

Can’t choose a bad skill since it is only in effect if you put it in your skill bar. You need 200 if you are going to make a legendary but I now have 200+ or 8 characters plus 500 from chest drops in game just sitting in my bank so they are easy to get.

Crafting if you really want can all be done on one character, just need to talk to the NPC to switch between active ones.
Can’t really help with narrowing it down since they all play caster or melee depending on how you set them up.

People don’t understand the mechanics of underwater combat it seems, still see people claiming ranger are horrible underwater and other bizarre comments. So ANET has done the business thing and focused on what people understand and thus will put money into (skins that no-one sees will not be popular).
I personally love the combat underwater even if some classes/profs are worse than others.

As for mesmer condi their focus is more confusion and torment so they are great to pair with necro, ele or thief whose focus is on other conditions. Having something walk itself to death is an interesting thing to see.

I am also fairly new(only 3 weeks in), now my winter break started so I have been playing a bit more, personally I am loving thief, great class. I remind you this is without skills or anything like that(I am level 11). One thing I learned, as a former WoW player, I was used to not “dodging” any attack, it was basically heal yourself or move out of an AoE or cleave move, this game is so different. It is basically dodging, the healing I can do(with a 15s CD) is about 180/999 health which is not easy. Thief(at least so far) does not have a lot of AoE, so multi target can be difficult since we are limited by initiative, but the key is burst em’ down as fast as possible. I go with the dagger/pistol combo most of the time, with that combo you are mainly melee but stealing weapons to get close(and for big damage) and using shadow shot to basically surprise enemies is lots of fun, and very effective. Though if you feel a ranged approach is better, the pistol/dagger form can be used and you basically only have to get close for a final attack etc.

shortbow is multi-target/aoe for thief.

I predict that holiday content for 2015 will be recycled from 2012-2014.

Only new item will be A Glorious Box, which contains Magnificent Bag, which once opened gives Gilded Purse, and inside of it players will get three Silvery Chests and three Ivory Chests. These can be opened. Inside will be 1-3 Pouches of the Festival, and 1-3 Sacks of the Festival. These containers hold an extremely rare Ascended Cache of Ascended Materials, and more common Fine Cache of Fine Materials. Once opened, players can choose which Coffer of Ascended Material to have, and which Coffer of Fine Materials to have. Once chosen, players can double-click the Bundles of Ascended/Fine Materials, and receive 1-5 pieces of chosen items. Fun, exciting and extremely rewarding!

This would actually be funny if it wasn’t so true…

Why Anet do you do this? ;_;

Because a company would be insane to have full staff over the holidays which would be required for new untested content.
