Guild Wars 2

I am just trying to resurrect the hype train

bibibibibibibibfroosssstaaaa!!!!

Since the prices are dropping, is it going to be a good or bad deal?

about time… the wait was too long… it actually killed the hype

maybe on HOT launch

nothing wrong with a one person guild

I read that there will be a time lengthening component in the collection journey to maintain the precursor’s ‘prestige’. I hope it won’t take longer than to farm the gold from SW and buy the pre off the TP straight…

Iavra.8510:

Unblockable shouldn’t be a thing to begin with, except for a few select skills. Imagine being a guardian and you basically can’t pick your best heal because everyone has a way to interrupt it, causing full cd.

yea man, this is not good game design in my opinion. blockable to negate attack is straight forward, but when unblockable stuff get added, it becomes complicated and contrived.

i wish aviator sunglasses were back

need aviator glasses…

i doubt anet will take any action since this has been requested for a long time.

i don’t think any of their staff will farm so many bags and click so many times in their playthroughs.

this fiasco made me change my impression of a few people whom i thought were worth watching and supporting.

yea man , i wanna look like this, humans need to have an option for tattoos too

i just wanna know more about who hisoka is since he beasted kronos who beasted the rest.

WOAH , so excited for the shadow of the dragon set, its 350 gems only man, What a STEAL! HYPED, best last day sale in the history of gaming sales!!!

they better throw out everything and put it on sale. this ‘sale’ feels like a fail… and its stale… its not hype generating or what… it actually makes me not excited to want to buy at all…

when you contrast this sale with steam sale, it becomes clear that anet should hire steam’s marketing department’s staff.

hopefully there will be an udnerwater expansion like a lost city of atlantis or sorts

collecting mounts would be much better than collecting minis.

not worth a hundred bucks for the ultimate edition but i still bought it anyway because this will probably be the only game i will play for the next year or so

What are your preferred race/gender for each spec?

revenant –
norn female or charr for double swords due to better animations,
hammer looks ok for all races
staff looks better on an asura for running animations
mace axe looks good on humans animations especially the smash
shield looks good generally

dragon hunter – all classes look ok i guess

daredevil – more suited for asura and humans due to lots of jumping around and nimbleness

berserker -go norn or charr or male human for bigness and stronger animations

reaper – heard charr animations were not smooth or something? go norn to get big scythes? i dislike human female’s gs holding stance

tempest – no idea, but generally i think this class/spec suits female humans

chronomancer – female human looks appropriate but i prefer the norn female’s sword running animation

it was so slow i gave up before i got the glider.

this is a beta test, kitten , make the levelling process faster so that we can try out without grinding our heads out

yea we need more progression and leaderboards would be good

Apparently the revamped version of guild missions will still be targetted at big groups? what about smaller guilds?

I have never gotten a guild merit for my guild as we can’t do the guild missions with our small numbers.

Why is the revenant class logo represented by a mushroom?

just throw the ghastly items and mad king outfits back and people will be happy again… for a while… labyrinth farm too… might as well make it 1st sept…

they should get rid of kick system and put in an afk kicker instead.

if the 10 people cannot overcome their differences and odds, they don’t deserve to succeed

anet should introduce a white knight badge/fanboy/hardcore elitist tag for show beside those ‘rigorous’ forum posters so that we know who to avoid/ignore and such

THIS IS UNDENIABLE PROOF and the SMOKIN GUN that RNG in this game is BROKEN

10 daredevils, dodge the boss to death, then stealth for cooldowns, repeat

i think 10 is about right, too many and it becomes like the open world events already

free precusors for 3 year vets, come on

yea i am getting it too. either bug or lag

the sale of course…

yea man, why can’t they give the gems straight away? 72 hours to process to counter frauds and as usual , innocents suffer the brunt of it too.

thief’s spec daredevil looks the most exciting for me

ahhah taht video was hilarious

yea but the memory is still fresh in my mind where anet decided to throw out $10 sales of gw2 vanilla and then kitten all the buyers by coming out with expac deals that includes the vanilla…

and now with the rumour of the free core game, i wonder what in the kitten is their marketing department doing? the packages are so complicated that i don’t even know if i am getting a good deal or not.

i just wished they fix the sword AA 3

pump and dump boys… pump and dump.. don’t fall for it

the white knighting is real.

defending shady sales tactics is pretty repulsive.

i agree with the OP, this entire sales fiasco leaves much to be desired and i am inclined to hold out for a better deal instead of readily splurging the ka-kitten to support gw2.

i have been crashing too, apparently mine is due to the windows update. i did a system restore in safe mode and reinstalled my old graphics driver and it became okay again.

What are the odds that anet will come out with a better deal to entice more potential customers to splash the cash as we near the HOT release?

I am hopeful that there will be one since anet has a track record of coming out with very good deals for newcomers but completely kittening existing players.

i will probably buy the expansion but it leaves a very bitter and bad taste in my mouth from the way they handled the sales of the expansion.

offering absurd packages to force more money out of their loyal fanbase is definitely not a good business practice.

Would have willingly supported them more if they didn’t come out with such money grabbing options.

they should just make it more random. the same old stale fights are boring to the core…

Many complaints have been leveled at this issue but it is unlikely anet will change their original animations.

they obviously know how to make capes if they want to, they are probably just saving it to be legendary backpieces or something

the reason why most skins look bad in some parts is so that when legendary armor comes out, the legendary armor looks the best in sea of mediocrity

Killyox.3950:

@Zackie, there is 0 merit to your post honestly. Brute force? So what? Thief’s finishing attack may just as well be precision attack. Still Elite is brute force enough and DD has access to physical skills.

There is 0 reason why zerk should get it before any other class. Quite honestly there is no class that should have any priority over another because every class would have something that could finish others.

You say brute force? Well how about engineers bombs and grenades that is definitely a lot of force so mabe it should to the engie eh?

Edit: I guess you deleted your rude post or mod did it for you.

@Shiki

Safest stomper might as well change Shiro/Jalis Rev, Stability Road + Impossible Odds Quickness stomp :P Shiro alone allows Rev to have Quickness on every single stomp.

As for elite imo it fits DD. Physical fighter fighting with 2 handed staff all about brute force with blunt edge. The way I see his Downward Slam is pulverizing his enemy’s skull into a pulp with his staff.

Negating a point just because you do not understand it doesn’t mean it is invalid. adding little insults into your ‘opinions’ do not make them any more valid either.

brute force is the reason it acts as a finisher. every class has a different theme. To claim that all classes are the same is your own understanding when in reality, they aren’t.

Even the reaper or the nade engi has more reason to get that finisher on skill than the daredevil.

how the hell is raids special? issn’t it just like fractals or dungeons?

The finisher on skill thief elite should have been given to the berserker.

To finish without casting the standard finisher is a sign of brute force and power which suits the berserker to the tee.
