Jumping.

I am bad at jumping but the only puzzle so far that I absolutely cannot do is the southsun vent puzzle. Thank god for mesmers. I do not think they should be required to finish maps like the wall one, so that should be changed to get the skill point and view. Never had a huge problem with that one though several people on forums where very upset about it.

Finally 80! Now what?

story mode is a option, not required at all. Expl mode is also an option depending on if you want the exotics that the tokens provide. Go to Lions arch near the mist portal and preview all the weapons/armour to see what you want to use. If you have crafted to being able to make your own exotics go farm mats at world boss events (break down rare for ectos and possible exotic drops) and various places for the T6 mats you will need.
Options all over the place so unfortunately it is up to you to decide how to proceed.

ANet needs to put pasties in the gem shop for the female Asura and the Charr, as well as for the males wearing this armor. Only this way can the game be saved.

I want small flower pasties for my Sylvari

You do know what flowers are right? I always blush when I go past a flower shop. Can’t believe how brazen and disgusting some people can be. I mean right there out in the open!

My female Sylvari has a giant flower now on her shoulder with pollen floating around her and bees flying around pollinating it.

I can only describe it as….. XXX.

Forget the Asura nipples. What was ANet thinking to allow blatant plant sex in the game?

I am EXTREMELY offended by this.

Me too, oh the shame of it all.

Whips as weapons

The same as the nightmare court people with whips?? In case of the nightmare court, it is range-kinda skills. but npc’s and foes professions are not directly related to playable ones.

Kind of my point. Which would suite it or would a new profession be required?

There is a group DE that spawns in the same area. Sounds like you got involved with that.

As for the skillpoint (which is in Fireheart Rise) Jack of Tears is talking about, that one isn’t all that difficult either as long as you hurry and get out of there before the entire map is after you.

Apparently we got there at the wrong time ah day, then, because we weren’ given 30 seconds without another wave ah Charr rushin’ up the ramps to swarm me an my friend what did the challenge with me. I don’ mind hard, but whatever set this one inta overdrive last night was makin’ it insane.

Personally I think they have improved with southsun. There is the rolling rebellions and crazed beasts running around. This to me gives it a little more meat than with the periscopes/flame portals. If they advance this over the 2 weeks instead of leaving it static it would be perfect.

People keep using the word epilogue, it does not mean what you think it means, there is no extra story, there is no wrap up, there are no conclusions from clicking the bonfire.

It satisfies all the requirements. You could at one point talk to various NPCs and get a form of closure if you would like to use that word instead.

If they added the option for guilds to team up to get the reward together it would solve a lot of the problems. Five small guilds together could do everything that was released for guild content. Instead you need to physically join another guild. Hot joins of guilds of different sizes would be great.

Edit: since they like things in five so much they could just modify the party system. Instead of individuals you get guilds. Symbol is not a person but guild sign. Rep to start and accept this is assigned by guild leader like other permissions.

Gee…I’m so glad that Anet took an amazing franchise and turned it into a money grubbing RNG fest. Remember when cool items used to cost time, and not money… Glad to see all the people running around with these weapons and know that they spent no effort to get them at all, but instead just opened their wallet.

People in lions arch keep posting this game is dieing are they right?

They have been saying that since November but guess what? The game is still running. I know, it’s shocking.

People have been saying that since beta. People in every game every produced have been saying the same thing. Sometimes they get lucky and it actually dies a final death of server shutdown but that is rare.

Are we getting mounts any time soon?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

There is no need for them. There is a very vocal minority for them. They where deliberately left out of the game by ANET. ANET left wiggle room to add something that could be considered a mount but probably will not satisfy the horsey crowd. It will not happen the way you want it to happen so search early posts and get your answers there.

I did not notice if you had contacted support. This was a farming bot by the sounds of it and will prob be on peoples target list for bots. Make sure support knows you have taken back control and what was done to the account through official channels not via forums. Keep the character if you want, not a big deal. If you want to run dungeons do so after you have your traits and weapon skills sorted out to where you are comfortable. Easy rare items to rip appart for ectos can be had at all major events see http://guildwarstemple.com/dragontimer/dragons.php?serverKey=201&langKey=en for a list of times and places, not all are listed. Create a new character just to see some things you missed.

LOTRO costume system is great as has been mentioned, outleveling weapons/armour in a incredibly short time is not a fond memory though.
Distant exp gain while in a group/party was a neat feature in Atlantica Online, don’t think it would work or is needed so much in this game though.
Seeing pets change as they gain exp is cool, would not mind seeing something like this.
Do not miss the trinity in any way.
Housing has never impressed me in any game, basically just a place to put stuff. So they create more stuff so you can put it in your house.

What to buy with gems?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

keys to me are not worth it. Starting out since you both like alts, character slots and bank slots are the first things I would buy. After you have played a bit create a private guild and build banking space there that can be shared between accounts. Then with in game gold buy more gems for fluff.

Hardcore characters?

Only a minority of players would be interested but probably enough to have 1 dedicated hardcore only server in Europe and in the US…

It would be PvE hardcore only, its impossible not to die in PvP or WvW…

A hardcore GW2 would have its own unique economy and gameplay style, with a lot of builds designed to avoid death…

And people scream now about wasted resources to temp content. Can’t imagine the noise from setting up dedicated servers for this.

Fused Weapons Are Now The Rarest In GW2 ?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Yargesh.4965

Yargesh.4965

People with jobs have less time to play and more money to spend, pay cash for gems, RNG, weapon ticket

People without jobs have more time to play and less money to spend, pay gold for gems, RNG, weapon ticket

i have a job yet still have around 300g since playing at launch….without spending a dime…i got a fused ticket with about 70g worth of gems…took around 30 or so chests….i have no regrets…..

and now im saving up for the next set of skins to b in the lions chest

But how would you feel if you spent most or all your gold and didn’t get a skin?

I don’t know about the poster but I personally would feel that I had a gambling problem. If I can’t afford to lose it, it does not mean I am dumb but I do have a serious problem.

More Chest RNG Weapons

To quibble there are millions of Mona Lisa’s some very, very good. They are copies but they are Mona Lisa just not the original.
No problem on my part to see ring on vanity items, or for them to be in the gem shop.

I knew someone who opened 10 BL chests and received two fused weapon tickets and an Abyss dye. I also knew someone who opened 87 BL chests and received nothing.

Assuming this anecdote is true, and assuming they paid cash for the gems instead of converting gold (a big assumption, I’ll admit) it perfectly illustrates the case against rng items. Person B was clearly willing to spend the cash to get a cosmetic item. But because rng – something that is completely beyond a player’s control – was not favorable to them, they had to go without something they obviously wanted.

RNG = Luck.

Let me put it this way:

Person A purchase ONE lottery ticket and won millions of dollars.
Person B purchased an entire lot of lottery tickets and won nothing.

Because luck – something that is completely beyond anyone’s control – was not favorable to everyone. Therefore, lots of people have to go without something they obviously wanted.

This isn’t the lottery. It’s not a casino. It’s a video game. If someone wants an item, why should he/she be denied that item because of luck? If someone is willing to put forth the effort in-game or is willing to spend cash in a cash shop to obtain an item, should that not be enough?

Remember, games are supposed to be fun. What’s fun about being told “you can’t have the items you want because you weren’t lucky enough”? We’re not talking about a lack of effort, and we’re not talking about an unwillingness to spend money; we’re talking about bad luck – in a video game – preventing one from getting the items they want.

And for companies, games aren’t meant to be fun. They’re meant to make money.

How refreshing. A post that has common sense. Good for you Vol!

I hope this thread gets locked down soon. How many posts can you have where people can’t grasp simple concepts?

1. Rare – Is something not everyone can get or have. Not many of them. Not likely to be found. Very few exists.
2. Whiner – Person who says things like, “They have something I want so I should get one too.”
3. Grasp of Reality – There is only one Mona Lisa. Not everyone gets to have one. Deal with it.
4. There is a real life company that makes and supports Guild Wars 2. They do this to make money, not cater to you. If they do not make money on Guild Wars 2, it will go away and no one will get any further skins or anything else for that matter.
5. If you don’t like it, quit playing and go somewhere else.

I wonder where you got your name from offence? It is fluff, not a new tier.

Are some of you people for real ? Adding new game content and skins every patch with no chance on receiving set items which should require SKILL not hard cash + RNG + stupid luck ? So what if it’s just a skin with no stats ? It’s still new content atleast WoW had t2 items from arenas which no carebear mofo could achieve by spending hundreds of dollars. This game is truly dying.

1% of COSMETIC content can be purchased?!?!?! With gold, cash or loot, you say?!?!?! ZOMG WOW IS BETTER!

They should just add content once a year like other MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION games lol

Are you getting payed to make these kind of posts ? Trust me we get that your a casual guy probably playing this game 2 hours a week it’s OK BRO we dont judge. But please try to be atleast more convincing when comparing those things. Ingame SKILL vs RNG+LUCK+CASH if it gets too confusing I will kindly explain it to you via PM.

Introducing a new tier of items on a monthly basis which is achievable only on RNG and cash terms is an awfull setting and that’s the end of it no matter how you spin it.

You post in an open forum, if you think I am rude good, get over yourself.

Actually, there are forum rules you are required to adhere to or be banned from it. If you are rude and attack people, well, people HAVE been banned for it before.

So, thanks, but no, you get over it yourself, and learn to be civil while you’re at it.

The tengu already have a home area, a place for a gate with the other racial gates and a step up zone after 15. They just need to be given the green light due to whatever reason held them back from launch. Class additions will come with the expansion. Skills are constantly being looked at and new ones will be put in when there is some stability with the ones we have now.

I don’t expect a GW2 expansion until after Wildstar releases to avoid one bigfooting the other.

That’s a good point I’d completely overlooked.

Why would NCsoft, who’s launching another MMO, want to launch an expansion to compete with it. They’d certainly want to stagger the release dates.

Yes the dance they will need to do to boost one without overshadowing the other will be tricky. Wildstar just needs to go out before Elder scrolls to steal their thunder then the expansion of GW2. My opinion of course.

True, but an undergrad could sort through these forums much better than the current state of moderation (not just in this game but the majority of games). Psychological manipulation is not the same as psychological direction, just ask any cult member.

There are people who do this. You see call outs every once in a while to get one to one feedback for their thesis.
What amazes me is that more companies do not collaborate with universities about this. Would be a huge benefit to both. Anet hired an economist but not a psychologist, both would have been helpful.

I’m sure they do, but they hide them behind some consultant title so people don’t realize how much they’re being manipulated. WoW clones, Farmville spinoffs, these games are too polished to have sprung into being by accident.

Oh yeah, I agree. The only games I can think of off the top of my head that really have died are Dungeon Runners, City of Heroes/Villians, Star Wars Galaxies…I’m sure there are others, I just cant’ think of them. I mean Everquest is still running. People still play UO even.

It’s like calling someone “fanboy” or “troll” for no reason other than the person disagrees with you. It’s a way to dismiss something or someone as irrelevant without having to provide a valid reason.

It makes me wish I were a psychology student or something, you could write a thesis, a book, even make a whole career out of studying MMO players…

form a guild and create a guild bank for your two accounts. All items can be transferred this way.

I happen to have two accounts – only for the reason of being a massive altoholic.

My main account has all my crafters on it, thus, I have no reason to keep crafting materials on the second account.

Due to messaging limits, it’s near impossible for me simply to send my own crafting materials to myself.

I do realise the limits are there to combat nefarious actions – could we perhaps get the ability to whitelist certain senders? This would allow me to whitelist myself, and other players reporting problems in this thread to whitelist their family/friends to allow more generous messaging limits.

I envisage this will work by the recipient entering an account name into a whitelist at their end – effectively saying “I trust this person, and am willing to accept any and all mail from them”.

In order to continue to combat nefarious uses, set it up so that 72 hours must pass before it takes effect, and limit the number of whitelisted players to 5 or 10 per account.

Not really game breaking stuff. The limits are there to guide you on your first trip through and are cleared very quickly even then. After your first time through getting to lvl 20 is so fast as to be meaningless.
