Guild Wars 2

From the southsun event last summer. Poster inviting people to see the beauty of the island and a great place to vacation. There where translations around last year, could probably find them with a search.

I would love for gold sellers to drop out of existence but other humans will buy so they will sell. Every few months exactly the same post as the OP gets onto the forums. There is no sudden huge increase, they just target different people and see what response they can get. Also ANET tracks for a while to see where things lead.

I have run orr on 4 characters now, they where equiped with anything from greens/yellows to full exotics, never used food. It really, really does not make a huge difference. There are several places where I could not do it solo. I just went back on my ele after leaving it for a long time because of the temple of balthazar and the priestess up in the NW corner. Balthazar I saw someone else running towards it and the two of us cleared around the skill point and got it (the raining fire because the temple was not held was the most difficult part). The priestess I shouted out in chat and someone answered right away, the confusion etc is horrible but can be done.
So my advice is to do what you can, shout out for what you can’t and go back to it if you are frustrated.

The Lion’s Arch Hub has moved to Vigil Keep (NE Gandaran Fields). Note that there are no free access crafting facilities there….you have to use other cities to craft (or pay for a limited time ticket for the crafting facilities at Vigil Keep).

I have yet to enter that area and not see numerous players on my server (Yaks Bend).

So basically it was just a money grab to get people to pay to have access to crafting stations -_-

Not really, you can get to your bank, trading post and crafting stations just as easily in the racial cities.

Kinda true-sure you can go to your home home city-but LS had everything —and now you have to pay for Air ship or go somehwere else.
So ya, like permanent tools/nodes at home instance etc-—the ship us a convinence item cash grab for those that have more disposible income. The Air Ship needs to crash and all it’s staition put on the ground a Vigil for free access.

For me the airship is the opposite of convenient. I still have 1 use tickets sitting in my bank because I just really dislike the layout of the ship. As others have said several cities have a really convenient layouts of bank/crafting/tp. You want to pay to get into the airship or human city zone go for it, myself I don’t see the point.

Jamin.6528:

And thus the ploy is further highlighted. Amidst this grand wardrobe feature, ANet has designed a system that will require us to buy more transmutations via the gemstore than we ever had to before.

Paranoia is fun and all but any type of play you get massive numbers of these things. I will finally be able to actually use the stones that just sit in my bank.

Think it will be call ‘People spinning out of control and complaining afterwards.’

deltasniper.1659:

I am also noticing the game is… well : / basically dead. It says my server population is Very High, yet in capital cities I have yet to see a single person.

because people are not there. They are in WvW or dungeons or fractals or doing meta events or Champ train farming.

deltasniper.1659:

ozmaniandevil.6805:

The major cities such as Divinity’s Reach are still good places to go. Also Vigil Keep waypoint.

I see the human capital has them but they are locked out “no pass no entry, no exceptions”

This is for pass holders (Gem item only). The ones you want are in the south of the city around the inner ring.

The easiest way is to go into the mists either WvW or Eothm or sPVP and use the gate to Lions arch. It will take you to Vigil keep since Lions Arch was destroyed.

Ravenspirit.4638:

Seems warrior is very popular! i will take this into consideration when picking.

Don’t, they are ok but not really great. They are very good to make mistakes on but not really great to learn the game on.

Shift Focus.9083:

There’s a Cantha Thread that was created over a year ago, with no real answers, and with MANY people wanting Cantha in gw2, but thanks for your opinion.

They why put another post out?

Could have been tied to the Tengu who did not get released for reasons unknown.

Wear, Ware is like an item (hardware, software).

This has me confused as well. I often switch around weapons while fighting, from what I have understood I will never be able to get stacks of anything now since it will be reset each time I switch weapons.

You can’t split the upgrade.

Does not matter what you mix (if you mix) you will get any type of weapon back out. You will always get staffs if you put in 4 staffs, but if you put in 3 hammers and 1 staff you could very well get a pistol.

Edit: at rare level you can also put in armour or accessories and get out a weapon as long as you mix in one weapon in the group. At exotic level you can only put in the same type ie weapon or armour or accesssories together.

Tom Gore.4035:

Best keep in mind though that if you want to play WvW at some point the highest ranking servers all have a pretty hefty queue most of the prime time.

This, if you want to play WvW any server that is not totally at the bottom of the ranks will do. If you need to be on the winning side then you will be in queue more often than not unless you play off-peak time.

Why still do this? This has been posted since basically day 1. People back when 1 gold was a huge amount where putting 1000g in the MF and being surprised they got nothing out. So why are you still doing this?

Actually the only other repeatable achievement I can think of is the Salvage one, and guess what? It is capped.

Also keep in mind that no one is even close to hitting the cap yet, so it is not really that much of an issue.

How close someone is to hitting the cap is immaterial. Eventually, the cap will be hit, and the point behind having dailies in the first place vanishes.

Don’t really think the point of dailies was initially to be AP since AP did absolutely nothing on release or for a long time after release. It was for people to get a little outside their habits and as a bonus get some boosters or trans stones etc.

Meglobob.8620:

I would prefer expanding the TP, so GW2 is a complete free market.

So no more soulbound or account bound items in the game fullstop. Everything and I mean everything can be bought and sold on the trading post.

Im Mudbone.1437:

I’m all for removing the TP and letting us EARN our goods while PLAYING THE GAME, get rid of the gem store too.

You do realise your asking for GW2 to be shutdown don’t you, ie no more game fullstop…

From posting history I do believe they are aware of that.

I don’t know, I have played since the game opened and have about 3k daily AP. I do dailies well daily for the most part.

Erich.1783:

Maybe keep the TP and put is the actual ability to trade between players? FOr those who want the convenience of the TP it is there, and for those who want to try and make a bit more, avoiding the fees, and those who want to try and save a bit, by the trader avoiding the fees, the option is there. Just a thought and I realize it will not happen as the TP fees are a gold sink.

You can trade person to person at your own risk now. They won’t stop you but won’t do anything if things don’t work out.

There was a post a month or so ago with the numbers you are looking for. An increase in rare and exotic drops was the take-home message but you would need to find the post yourself to satisfy your curiosity.

GW2 Mystery Patch Notes

What he’s really saying there is: Everybody is looking to Dulfy.net anyway, so let’s just embrace that

She does an amazing job, I do not begrudge her anything.

nGumball.1283:

Beldin.5498:

Belzebu.3912:

Where are you looking for those numbers?

Look at the server list. If you are guesting a lot you notice that quite some server went from “very high” to “high” there recently

It was confirmed servereal times that the population is counted by registered accounts, not active ones, meaning the change is probably caused by Anet tweaking the server-system, prepearing for the mega-one.

They also have a 50% off sale of the game and they always tweak the servers for this type of thing.

Interesting perspective. Most of the threads on the forums are asking for AreaNet to add stuff. It’d be fascinating to see our very own development team state what they cannot and will not add to GW2.

I feel that the initial reactions to being told what can’t be done would be negative from the community. However, with the new limitations in mind, suggestions for future content could be more in-line with that the developers can do.

I have seen this attempted by other games. It never seemed to have any impact at all other than people ignoring it and demanding that things that have been excluded from being put in be put in.

Really? If you don’t mind my asking, which other games? I’ve just never heard of this sort of thing being done before.

The most detailed list of things they would not add was done by Runescape years ago (I have not played in about 10 years so may have changed since). It was completely ignored by forum users. Other games generally fall back on ‘we don’t have the resources for that.’ which is a round about way of saying we have no way to implement what you want.

You don’t know what’s going to happen and you don’t know what you’re going to find. Every week you want to search every corner of the world because the next hint for the living world could be hidden anywhere.

No. I don’t want to have to scour every corner of the game every week to avoid missing something. I have other things to do with my time.

You don’t want to but others do. Five minutes after any release the info will be widely available either here on forums or youtube or Dulfy.

It will tell you when you go to the exchange section for gold to gems. I think it is 10g roughly for 100 gems now.

They rotate through all of that over the year. It will come again.

Pie Flavor.1647:

were it not because I went for a legendary, I would’ve lost interest in GW2 a loong time ago.

There just isn’t anything else compelling for me to do in GW2, during the course of legendary crafting, I learned just soo much about the game, that I would otherwise have never bothered to learn.

Crafting a legendary is not an easy task, and not everyone has the perseverance or the income to do it (believe it or not, not everyone who has a legendary had $500 disposable income to throw at the game), and that’s what makes it so much more valuable.

Whenever I hear “lol twilight is ugly” or “lol everyone has a twilight” or “legendaries take no skill, there’s nothing legendary about it”, all I see is someone bitter because they can’t have what I have, and that just gives much more value to what I have, even if nobody is ever going to admit that.

This^^
GW2 is the same for me too.If it was not the legendary i would have lost interest.Because of it now i’m interested in many more different parts of the game.

If that is all that is holding you here then you will quite as soon as you get it. Don’t really see what you gain from staying in the game that has become very much a drag.

No fixes necessary, it is not broken. It is not broken because it is not in the game. It is not in the game because a decision was made (rightly I think) not to have it.

go for it and good luck.

I don’t understand the question.

I believe the OP is concerned he may have to change his build and/or gear after the feature patch.

Ah, ok. They have said beserker is still the highest damage in the game after the update. If you want to spend gold it will be up to you.

I don’t understand the question.

A big part of why EoTM massively failed is because of all the NPCs.

Pfft… probably more players in EotM then on the BL’s. Don’t know how you are quantifying failure?

They don’t like it so it failed, simple definition.

GW2 is a very easy game to play without goals. If you need someone else to set your goals and tell you that you have to go here do this and get that you may have problems finding satisfaction.

It is incredibly easy to get to 80 even just playing slowly through the game. When you add in crafting and boosters and even those tomes of knowledge it is nothing. You pvp so you are 80 all the time, can’t see the need to get to 80 quicker when you are already at 80.

Southsun shark kills are the best. One group comes then the next in a cross pattern. Combat only sucks if you can’t do it.

thehipone.6812:

The actual game is 50% off this weekend. Someone can buy 2 copies and have more character slots, storage etc. for the same price that you paid originally. Do you seriously expect “compensation” in the form of $30/euros/etc. because someone can now buy it cheaper? Or get another game for free because GW2 went on sale? I hope not.

Oh god, now you have done it. They will start this now.

I can’t really see why the wurm and teq can’t just stay offset an hour all day long they are already a fixed time across servers and time limited in duration. I could be missing something but it really seems strange.

Zepidel.5349:

Make all legendaries bind on equip after the patch so people with multiple of the same legendary can sell theirs.

But who are we kidding that wont happen, ncsoft would lose money.

They would not lose any money, it is such a small number of people that while it would be a nice gesture would be way more work than could be justified.

xenophobia

The rigidness of the schedule is also a problem for EVE and NiP in Europe. They also only ask for rep during the big events and also won’t be able to spawn the event regularly even if they are max sized guilds.

To add to Naqaj if you do Guild teq there is no reason for anyone but your guild to swamp you. If for some reason there is a large number on the zone you would as a guild all wind up on your own. If there where a couple of others on the zone and some guild members went to a different variant you just start taxing into the lower guild based instance like you do now with overflows.

Everyone agree? Like asking if everyone likes x. No everyone does not like x. The company made a decision good or bad it will not go away. I really won’t know what I think until I actually see it, not speculate and let group think lead me.

cranos.5913:

AlexEBT.7240:

well let’s just say the population drop will become quite the problem the next few months.

People say that almost every patch. lol

World bosses will be better now. Overflow will practically be eliminated and guilds get the option to tackle them as a proper organised group.

People say that EVERY patch, and every week that goes by without a patch and every time a new and shinny different game announces they will kind of sort of release in the next decade.
