Guild Wars 2

I’m curious as to why a change like this hasn’t occurred already. The cultural gear is super expensive for what it is. Why haven’t they been changed to exotics and stat choice selections with the drop down box?

I don’t see what the problem is.

I too find it amusing how somehow farmers have been made to be the badguys

Because THIS…

tigirius.9014:

it costs thousands of gold to buy a single legendary or 500 gold for a skin

…Is the FARMERS’ fault. The farmers’ and the TP PLAYERS. Without EITHER of those, NO ONE would have THOUSANDS of gold, ergo NOTHING would be so EXPENSIVE.

If GW2 had NO farmers, the game would be MUCH, MUCH better for everyone ELSE.

You’ve obviously not considered there’s every possibility that the price would skyrocket if less farmers existed.

Farmers often help curb that spike between supply and demand.
If there are terrible drop rates in game and you at least want a chance to purchase something on the TP, then you’re more likely to get that item if farmers constantly…well…farm it. That ends up getting farmers trying to undercut each other for a sale.

- The more farmers there are, the more there are on TP, the lower the price gets.
- The less farmers there are, the less on the TP and the more expensive it’ll get.

While I’m not saying this is the be all-end all of farmers and the TP, but it’s definitely not just Black and White as you assume.

refer to my posts from 2 above this one. Anet is terrible at economics.

Well… I tend to spend My money where I play. And My current opinion is…this game was awesome at launch…and each patch takes it further and further away from what I enjoyed. I think it is headed in the wrong direction. So at first I played, and didn’t buy. But… it is so hard to farm Gold consistently… that I saw myself Buying Gold with gems. So I decided if I am gonna spend money., I may as well spend it where I enjoy playing.

When I see that gw2 is headed in the right direction for me…….

I’ll return, and shop.

noooo you can make plentyyy of gold, doing dungeons and farming/gathering. and even if you want to buy gems, its simple, buy gem with gold when gems are cheap and buy gold with gems when gold is cheap. you can merchant this u know =/…..it just takes time, everything takes time. the best part of it all is that for the necessary thingsu really and i mean REALLY dont need much gold…at all. for the hard to get stuff….it takes effort dude =/….thats what the game is for, to make u spend time on it. either way, its way good now i honestly believe that its great and if u log on even once during the 2week events that will come, then u will eventually have a whole bunch of cool stuff to pick n choose from….a lot a lot a lot XD!! you probably just went about it the wrong way.

that is laughable , truly you just made my day lmao the wrong way they have nerfed everything how is that the wrong way ? lmfao you cant farm they dont want you to they nerf that too LOL you seem very new to this game all i have to say is good luck with your farming , and trying to gather anything rofl

what do you mean they nerfed it? you mean the super hard stuff to get? cause all the stuff i got is not hard to get, it just takes time…..why u crying dude? lol drop rate went down? sucks i guess, but i have no problem and i mean no problem getting what i want. then again im not so interested in the super rare stuff, just the good looking stuff.

farming is pointless anyways…

I farmed the rich ori vein in southsun, as did a lot of other people. So after the Lost Shores event, ori went down in price. then they removed the rich ori and the price went up, and now with ascended gear and the insane amount of low tier materials required, and ori exotic gear being moot, ori, gossamer, and hard leather are worthless. I remember when gossamer was 24s a scrap, and hard leather being more than 15s a piece, ori some 8s, and ancient wood being a ridiculous amount as well. hell, also look at sentinel gear. that stuff was so rare but so valuable that it was 100g+ for a full set then they released ascended weapons and armor and made sentinel inscriptions/insignias available for guild commendations and not account bound so I, along with many others, quickly made the items with highest buy rates and made a butt ton. Anet are their own worst enemies for this game.

dungeons: stand there every once in a while using a skill. if you want something difficult, you have to grind up to 40+ scale FOTM, which then becomes a grind. I don’t know what you are talking about, but with Anets terrible economic policy and adjustments with the game, the terrible means of farming and the ridiculousness that is the TP and skin gear grind since they recycle skins for every 10lvl increments like lazy bums. GW2 is not a good game. The small things are missing and the underlying aspects of the game are not clever at all. It is a casual paradise for those who are looking for a game with as much necessary interaction as Angry Birds. Even Tetris requires more thought.

what was so bad about the seasons? i didnt have an issue with season 1. the only gripe I have is the massive amounts of grind involved in completing the achievements. they aren’t setup so that you complete them as you play, and there is so much x/X to do that you need to essentially only commit to WvW during the season unless you play more than a couple hours a day. rewards delay isn’t an issue for me.

hopefully if at all, they will enable players to get the hero’s/mistforged weapons or other through badges of honor as well.

so if anet isn’t bringing about something along these lines, let’s do them ourselves right?

the recipes include the hero’s version and a gift of heroes for 200 wvw tickets. it’d be nice if they dont enable players to get them through pve.

just interested in the rewards. I want the mystforged sword/gs and maybe shield. wasn’t able to participate in this one so looking forward to another.

when will the next tournament season begin?

my mini Hob-Goblin

Every time I open the client, it has the downloading screen before the login screen. Is this intentional? It’s not inhibiting me from playing, but it’s kind of annoying.

So now that I am moving on to Ascended armor crafting, I am curious about something. Do item drops scale to the level of the character? Such as my 80 being in a level 40 zone, will I only get 76-80 drops or will I get drops that are relevant to the zone’s level? I ask this because I need to farm for mats, particularly scraps of x. I remember at some point reading/hearing that item scaling had been implemented. Anyone know?

Can Anet enable in the Crown Pavilion the auto kick like in spvp for those who are afk for too long? Some people just stand around and cause the bosses to scale up

honestly, at this point, I am using the time I would have been putting into GW2 into a second job to get a new PC and PS4 for Destiny, The Division, and ArcheAge. I will definitely still have GW2 installed and play it, but not very much. I enjoy the graphics and gameplay for the most part, but the world, though they tried so hard, is missing so many “little things” that it feels pointless and static; wide, but shallow.

Brutal Arts.6307:

0 content for a month. Got it.

more time to farm for Chaos of Lyssa recipe and champ bags! let’s go!

interesting plot! and the concept art is great as well! nicely thought out, but doubtful that there will be any use to it, unfortunately. Would be nice if they would take story ideas from the fanbase, but…

no nerf lol. at least not until i have gotten my last 3 character slots to 80!

man. thank you!

so at this point, only those who have gotten the skin for pvp have it for their wardrobes so we are out of luck? awesome. please Anet, add it into the game somehow. maybe a heart?

so now that the pvp locker is gone and pve/pvp gear use the same skins, where can I get the tribal light armor now?

Sigil charges reset when I swap weapons that have stat charges sigils on them. This applies to both when using the weapon swap ` key or when changing weapons in the character menu. this didn’t happen before the patch. Please fix it.

how do the restrictions work on sigil usage on two handed weapons? if I wanted to put a sigil of force and a sigil of paralyzation on a hammer, would that not be viable since they are both of the +% passive category of sigils?

I just logged in and had not been online since before Christmas, although, I have followed the more major news and updates over the months. I had purchased across 3 characters the rider’s outfit and broom and a few stand alone shirts. I am unable to find them. Where are they or have they been removed with no compensation?

thanks

the dredge in the car room is great for farming.

so it was said in the release notes as follows:

“Artificers can combine two identical Agony Resistance infusions with a Thermocatalytic Reagent to create a single, more powerful Agony Resistance infusion.”

No where in there does it indicate that you can ONLY combine the dropped infusions that are trade-able. So, I went and bought 6 +5 agony resist infusions from the fractal token vendor. Now I don’t really know what to do with them and I wasted 500 tokens or so :/ Can you guys PLEASE be more clear in your update notes? Thanks

1 guy in group still alive and out of combat. no place to respawn, no popup checkpoint. this is in the story of the reactor. don’t know how it is working out for the actual fractal.

gone for 2 hours. and the keep hadn’t been flipped. I checked around. So yeah, the ones I placed despawned.

blakkrskyrr.7413:

can you guys please remove the despawn mechanic on player placed siege? I’m tired of having placed siege and it being gone when I come back.

Can someone please delete this post? We worked so hard for so long to finally get siege despawn timers, and people like this have no idea what they are talking about.

You really want your keep siege capped with 50 rams built inside and no arrow carts, trebs, ballistas, or anything? All because 1 player didn’t like what your commander was doing?

hmm. didnt think about that. sorry, i guess I haven’t joined your ranks as a pessimist. I didn’t think that people would actually do that. I just spent about 20 minutes earlier building up siege in the garrison and when I came back from dinner, they were all gone. I guess there really isn’t any way of being prepared in terms of siege other than upgrades to the general keep, and then siege building right before, or during defense. Or we have squads on defense. But wvw isn’t strategic play enough for that. More of a duck duck goose game than chess or risk.

can you guys please remove the despawn mechanic on player placed siege? I’m tired of having placed siege and it being gone when I come back.

a friend was asking about whether when infusing ascended gear now after the update, will the upgrade be removed? So having 1 slot already upgraded, will when infusing, you get 2 slots. will both slots be empty? thanks!

they did say in their plans that they will be adding all weapons to each class. what i am really wanting though is a new class and also 1 or 2 new weapon skills to choose from for each weapon per 1-5 action keys.

The veteran subjugators I am fighting in Orr are using a continuous siphon life. I don’t remember it being like that. Can you either confirm that they are supposed to be able to siphon life for the duration of the fight, or that it is a bug and can be fixed?

Valanga.5942:

Yeah, ANet’s always been awesome in overhyping their product with cool and shiny trailers…

wow. feeling the love emanating from you. you should go watch Bambi and come back and edit that post. pay attention to the bunny scene. it’s key.

I already have 8 characters, 9 slots, and am waiting for a new profession. please add a new heavy class soon

i run a thief and have partied with purely spell casting types and have never had a problem with that. no idea how he is not visible to you.

marjory’s dagger skin is not animated like in the preview window in the gem store when it is sheathed. which is kind of disappointing as I spent 600 gems on that. Please either change whichever representation is incorrect thanks

maps aren’t designed for mounts.

i dont know if we can salvage weapons, as I haven’t tried. But I do know we can’t salvage ascended trinkets. can you guys please make this possible? I have a few just hanging around that I’m no longer using or don’t plan on using, and I’d like to get something for them.

I’d like a revamp of the ranger pet system. That’s about it for myself.

fair enough. it’s annoying for the non-bots.

It’s rather annoying. Please fix it, or remove it if it isn’t a bug. Instead of spending 3 minutes clicking sell for all my crafting goods I no longer need, it takes me over 15 minutes because of the error message and having to flip between tabs or close and reopen and waiting for it to stop showing error. Thanks.

That’s kinda the point of the word “option” in my comment.

please add more variety to town clothes apart from costumes. I would like to not be wearing armor all the time, and the town clothes you get with your character are ugly. Also, add an option to auto equip town clothes in cities and for combat gear to not equip when entering water in LA.

The Total Makeover Kit window is way too small to be able to make note of the changes as closely as you can in the actual Character Creation screen. Please change the window to either be able to increase/decrease in size similar to the inventory window, or change it entirely to open a copy of the Character Creation screen that takes up the entire screen and puts your character into a “vista/cut-scene” state with the little film-tape icon.

Thanks!

I’m not sure if it is a customization option, or if there is a reason behind it, but once a party disbands all the past chat disappears. Now I can’t remember what the name of the person is that I was talking to and there are no logs of the conversation in any chat tab. Please fix this and make it so the party chat remains in preferred chat tabs.

dude, are you a project manager? I could see you setting up a slide presentation for some big names. a high quality portfolio there dude.

Can you please put an in-game barber and clothes designer, and then implement some options for in cities? I’d like to get similar town clothes that NPC’s have for my characters, and then for them to automatically switch to those clothes when entering a city.

will the skins be tradeable?

sure, mini-pet in front. but what is that weapon then? all mini’s with a weapon have one that is in the game. never seen that. it looks like seraph gear.

what weapon is that that the guy is holding? the one that looks metal and is in the back. I don’t recognize it.
