Guild Wars 2

Mine has a first name that is,but I kept the last because I’ve had it since my Gw1 main. I couldn’t just give that up y’know? I’ve also used Kriochre before.
If you need some naming help, I’ve found this site can be pretty helpful with it: http://fantasynamegenerators.com/sylvari_names.php#.Vxzf2_krLcs

Inb4 staff AA nerf.

Malyck.
I don’t think this one really needs an explanation.

SoR stay away from Monkey Shinezz and you’ll be fine.

Perhaps a neon green? Noxxi made some points on it here as well as a colorblind option:

Can we get match-up threads on the official forums? Would be a great way to connect with our pairings…

I do miss the match-up threads on here, they had some issues with toxicness but they were fun. It would be a nice way to connect the pairings now with this system in place so I agree with you there.

I like the fact you can move now,but oh dear were the animations better before.

Gonna be interesting in T2.
I also can’t wait to see who gets to come be buddies with us DBers.

After playing WoW for a long time with their raids I’ve learned that it tends to attract the worst attitudes/people. I also still remember how said kind of people treated Rangers at the start of Gw2 with dungeons/groups and I really didn’t feel like dealing with that bs again. Not to mention how the pugging tends to be with raids in this game.
I also don’t care much for raids nor do I have the time to commit to them anyways so y’know. Did some testing for it during Beta and tried it at release, it just wasn’t something I was interested in for this game.

Guys I think my Rangers going to fall over soon if she keeps doing this. The animation is pretty bad compared to the old one in my opinion. I liked the old one due to how agile and active it was, it fit the Ranger better.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the fact that it no longer gets you stuck even if it was something I learned to work with. It just had one of my favorite animation chains so…y’know.

Lumpy.8760:

doesn’t even have a sound effect

….How did I not notice that till now.

Yeah, that animation is pretty bad compared to the old one. At least the kicking and everything was fun to watch. I can understand the mechanics change but y’know it did use to be my favorite wep animation.
It looks like my Sylvaris about to fall over when I use it compared to looking all agile and rangery.

Sylvari are actually more attuned to nature(not just because plant people), Norns are more attuned with animal spirits/hunting/weps. Considering that they have the ability to command plants, grow plants with several of the racial abilities and have also been shown to commune with nature spirits like oakhearts. All races fit with the professions, it just depends on how you want your character to be.
I wish I could answer the question about Norn and pets,but I don’t play them often. I don’t think they do at least. It is also possible to combine “leather” and cultural,but it mostly depends on what your tastes are with armour looks.

I still prefer Kudzu in general for bows, but I do like the tiger theme as an option. It def helps some people considering the other legendary short bow is Dreamer.
The baby tigers are utterly adorable though.

Clearly Sylvari are the best choice here,not like i’m biased or anything aheh…

I liked it in general even if I don’t agree with how some of the characters were handled. My fave parts were probably the Sylvari version of the story, Canach and the Norn Savage.

DE 2.0 was nice but Canach was great in this and kept worrying me every time he would wonder off. I’m looking forward to seeing the next part personally.

I like the change,but I am going to miss kicking people in the face. If you ever played Sylvari ranger with a sword you will know what i’m talking about with the high kicks lol. RIP old animations.

Although I think I still prefer the old version of this wep in PvP. Once you got used to its restraints it was pretty useful.

Siobhan.5273:

Does Kudzu have a sound?

I play with my sound so low, I’ve not noticed if this one does, but I have definitely heard The Dreamer and it drives me nuts.

I just made a ranger, and though I’ve never really wanted a legendary before (most are so visually loud to me, this one looks very appealing and ’druid’ish), I am thinking about Kudzu.. but only if it isn’t nails on a chalk board annoying.

Edit- just saw what Zalani posted. So, just birds? But no nerve grating birds, I hope.

Sorry didn’t see this till now. But yeah, whenever you shoot and sometimes while your idling with the weapon drawn you can hear birds.
There not nearly as bad as Dreamer and I like them personally. But it really depends on the person so you can prob find a youtube vid of Kudzu effects if you want.

Ranger pets poisoned our water supply, burned our crops and delivered a plague unto our houses!

I wish they wouldn’t be so stiff when running and would just act like they fixed the feather wings.

I hope not. This was the reason I bought the hawk wings, because they don’t behave like the black or white ones. I am not a fan of that drifty, swooshy, flowy, fabric-y looking animation that happens whenever your character moves the tiniest bit on the screen. I love the way the hawk wings move more naturally when you move on the screen and the way the feathers separate out and fall back into place, it’s much more elegant looking than previous ones.

Same, I would hate to have these wings turn into flimsy paper like the other two.

aggressive neighing intensifies

I really want to love the dress for my Sylvari,but the boots are making it a bit hard.
Maybe if they were more leaf-like rather then fur?

Just when I was going to stop buying Gem Store stuff…
Anet why must you do this to me.
(Wings are great though, love the detail.)

I like the view distance that you get from Shadow behemoth.
Anet please.

He’ll always be Bubbles to me.

Holy kitten the Ranger pet is actually doing something.
Better nerf it.

Well, after looking it up and browsing through the pictures…
Eh…between the fact I hate babyfaced characters in general and with how the armour looks.
I’ll stay with Gw2 thanks.

I miss my salad subforum.
We had a nice hairstyle thread going on in there too.

But hey, maybe you’ll get bonus points for fancy lettering.

Qugi.2653:

^Why did you add some thing to my quote I do not say?

Lol, that was supposed to be in my post. Dunno how that got there.

Zalani.9827:

I wouldn’t mind Avatars…
But can they at least fix the search bar? Anet plz.

Anet say can not fix it because no longer work with company that made forum.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/players/Forum-s-search-feature-doesn-t-work-A-tip/first#post4612877

The problem is deep within the technology behind the forum structure itself. Yes, we had a search engine in the beginning, but it was broken by our forum contractor in the course of working on other things. We no longer have a relationship with that contractor or his company, and someone else is not able to step into the system and fix the search engine because (1) our programmers are tasked with other essential work, (2) the forums run on a web framework with which most of our programmers are not familiar and (3) we’re investigating other options for forums and it would not be prudent to pour money into hiring someone to fix this as a short-term solution.

Man, well that would explain it. Thanks though.
Although that is a nice tip…

Anet plz do this.
But please don’t remove the water area again, I like my afk spot.

I’m more concerned of why that War was running a glassy gunflame build in the first place.

I wouldn’t mind Avatars…
But can they at least fix the search bar? Anet plz.

Might have to test out a shout build when these come in.

Cam Ron.4170:

you’re crying about the wrong class.

Reaper is about to open up your cornhole and stick his scythe inside

Thanks for making me spit out my drink, hf.

I do go back off and on,and have been working on getting my HoM points higher. But its a bit harder to get some stuff done since there isn’t as many people around.

I still need to finish the mapping, grind for rare armour and get some more Heroes upgraded. Funtimes.

anduriell.6280:

i’ve heard that the heal tempest is the new healer in raids and the druid is not needed anymore…

I’ve also heard you preach this over and over here on the forums, lol

I’ve also heard that they have been preaching it since the start of HoT.

As I said before in these threads and will continue to say:
Toggle option is a great thing for everyone. I’d rather not see it get nerfed when they could easily add a toggle option.
I like it personally.

Still glad I decided to make Kudzu instead.
At least the birds are pretty chill.

Welp, can’t wait to launch myself at the purple crystal pain in the shape of a dragon.

I’d rather not screw over my team by playing sub-par on professions I rarely use.

Hnng, I’m not sure which one I like better…

when will people actually do finalyl give up and see in, that Cantha most likely will never come back???

Tbh even if they do say its never coming back it won’t stop me from continuing to want it. I’ll just continue to fawn over the art and music from one of my favorite expacks.

Avatar of Melandru

+1 to this.
I would also love to get the Witchwear and the Lunatic Court Finery back.

I’m starting to get extremely annoyed by all of the visual effect nerfing.
Why can’t there be an option for people who actually like the skills and other effects looking nice?

Heck, if they could do it they could add an option to turn up/down others visual noise and a separate option for your own. Kinda like the character models.

It’s really noticeable with the Mesmers chaos storm/shield. it used to actually look like a storm on the area and now is just a plain white circle half the time. The shield just looks like a lil’ flimsy purple dome when it actually used to have the Mesmers aesthetic with the butterflies and shattered glass to it.

And what happened to the flower trails with Kudzu? They used to look like this and now the projectile is barely seen.
(Note: I have my graphics the entire way up)

THE PACKMASTER
The Packmaster handles a multitude of beasts, controlling as many as companions with their scepter-whips. They travel the world to gather some of the largest and most dangerous beasts for their pack, gaining the Minion utility skills type.

…..I kinda want this now. I get to whip people and sic’ stuff on them? Sweet.

I’ve been enjoying my Necros new look I made for her. It’s mostly mismatch pieces with Black, Midnight Ice and green dyes. Ment to have the whole gothic style in a way.

And I give it a 10/10 Astra, I like how the colors match and the general look of the set.

The hype is real.

So, this happened in the Reddits: http://picosong.com/Ef4k/

Sad to see them go since I did like their music,but can’t help what happened.
Boting, not even once.
