Guild Wars 2

I suspect that other pieces of the halloween event will take you through racial regions and possibly to the main cities(cant see them making new halloween themed artwork for the hometown load screens if they dont at least stop by briefly.

You know those guild wars novels were pretty darned good so perhaps traherne’s backstory could be filled in that way? afterall once the next novel is done we’ll have the origins for a bunch of characters some of whom we dont even meet much beyond a greeting or heart quest(dougal and the norn who runs lions arch) so a story of traherne’s rise to such a lofty status amongst the 3 orders would be a welcome addition to that list imo.

Are there pictures of all the pact weapons anywhere? i’d like to see what all the fuss is about since im a few levels and a chunk of personal storyline away from getting a token for my thief.

Nah he moved to outworld and changed his name to shang tsung

I’d be happy if they added a couple of new skins to the higher tier leather karma recipes so it’s not the same armour at all tiers jsut a different material cost, theres a few good armours currently used in the storyline missions that could be used as higher tier karma recipes so that those who missed them duringthe stoyline or who liked them but needed different stats at the time could make the armour they wanted with the right stats without using a stone(not everyone has a ton of stones stored in there bank afterall).

So make sure were around at about 8pmish uk time sunday 28th then? cool im usually on then

15 points on the gw hall of monuments achievements list, it also awards the rift warden title and black moa skin for pets.

Ooops thougth you asked about the skeleton baby chicken.

Any plans to release pre paid gem cards for those of us who would prefer not to use debit/credit card to purchase gems? something similar to the games on facebook/google+ which contain a code you redeem for gems equivalent to the value of the cash you paid for the card(so you could do them as the exact amounts you currently do) or heck perhaps even redeemable for specific items like costumes and dye packs instead of gems, pretty sure you’d make a ton of cash this way over the current method as i know D&D online and other mmo’s do it these days.

Tailor should have the title “just a humble tailor” since anet like putting little references and shout outs in the game(it a ds9 reference for those who dont know).

Whiteside Ridge is so far one of the best servers ive ever been on in an mmorpg. The community is always chattering away about this or that in /w but it’s usually something usefull like locations of poi’s and events that are up(amongst the usualy humourous banter), so far ive only come accross 3 complete d-bags in game: one whispered insults at me becuase he thought i stole his kill (even though he got xp and i sorta prevented him from dying from links he hadnt noticed) and the other 2 were just morons messing about for the lulz then getting all angry at the fact they missed the veteran that had respawned behind them which subsequently downed them both and had to be kited away by my fellow guildmate so i could rez them both.

The name i originalyl wanted to use was gone so and it wouldnt let me have rottweed because of the weed part(though thats understandable if only to stop idiots naming themselves after the narcotic) so i chose shimmerroot which sorta works (though why i then chose necromancer is the strange part), im currently looking into creating another sylvari but this time im gonna try to find something abit more unique for a name.

The lvl 45 crafted Leather armour is probably the first Engineer looking armour ive seen so far in the game, the noble armour at 35 sorta loks ok but its not perfect(has a eyepatch/monacle which is about it really), hopefully in time anet will tweak the crafting so every tier has armour craftable that looks unique for each class.

Gotta love mmorpg’s that let people name there characters stupid things(icanhazzgunz is one ive seen or ermahgerd) yet wont let you name pets and such things like Dot lol

I noticed that when the alpha drake spawned the other day in Bloodtide that isntead of walking it skated about, not sure its a bug but it was pretty darned funny

So why not just tweak the existing dye pack to be a fall themed pack since it only runs thru the end of october? maybe drop the price abit aswell to say 150 that way people get more dyes and if it’s a success you have a concept to stick with for the other seasons and nobody thinks your trying to rip them off charging what you currently do for just one bottle of seasonal?

Sounds like a cool mission to me, i’d definitely be interested in running it(though no doubt anet would somehow break the npc ai so they are useless like most npc’s in story missions lol).

One way to ease the toughness woudl be to change the rate gear gets damaged in story missions to say one piece every 2-3 downs that way people wont get to a point where youve effectively bankrupted them via ridiculously overtough mobgroups, i just got the the lvl 53+ story missions(magic sucks and the prophetic vision one in the grove) and so far each time ive been downed 2 pieces get damaged not the usual 1, im not sure if higer lvl missions are suposed to do this or if its a bug but after a couple of downs im starting to think it’s not worth the effort or cash i’ll have to use for repairs which is sad as im actually enjoying the storyline so this roadblock is kind of annoying.

Another option would be drop repair oils more often in the story missions that’d help ease the problem and keep people on their feet with gear that isnt bust.

Oh im a thief so i get that im abit more squishy than other classes but uptill these 2 missions ive had no real troubles with the storyline.

I love running about with the hammer over my shoulder barely managing to stay upright then thwakking something over the head in a very loony toons mallet style

I also made a guardian norn as the race seemed to fit the concept i had for the class better than my other options(asura or charr), i made her max height aswell(since why be a norn if your not gonna be huge?) and i gotta say i dont regret it at all(love the choice for voice actress aswell btw), the armour choices are abit cack though but that seems to be an issue for all classes untill you reach about 30+ so im not complaining.

I agree especially since your sisters name is debra which just doesnt sound right for elonian or canthan origin lineage(not that my character looks very canthan but still…) Also it’d be nice if there was a way to link your gw1 characters into the story, for instance if you could actually pick one as an ancestor and have it impact somehow on your personal storyline(afterall an ancestor who achived so much would cast a long shadow).

I may eventually play WvWvW( once i get my guild big enough to field a decent team), however i dont want to be forced into playing it to attain 100% world completion so i agree with TsukasaHiiragi.9730’s idea of splitting the completion up into 3 separate achievements that then grant the Been there Done that one once you gain all 3. This split would no doubt give players more to work towards and a greater sense of completion once the final one is gained with those who choose not to play W3 getting the other 2 and being equally happy whilst not being forced into a game type they dont wish to play.

if they add a new class it should be a heavy armour based class so we have 3 of each armour type, as for race Kodan or Tengu make most sense give they wouldtn be very hard to impliment into teh game(and arent as bloody annoying as quaggan or as evil and thus none heroic as krait), the skritt idea above sounded cool though as a way to handle the hive mind part of the race.

Make frank n further an ettin and it works even better

I’d be happy if they just tweaked the crafting so that each class got to craft gear that was tailored speciaifcally to that classes style and look instead of having to constantly transmute the look of other armour over the top of the latest crafting lvls because it looks more like armour an engineer would use and not somethign a ranger or thief would ever wear.

I do miss the uniquely named bosses and elite captures though so maybe future content could introduce those via a few new class specific questlines that reward skins/crafting recipes alongside new elite skills?

The event with the pirates attacking the supply cart crossing the bridge in gendarran fields has been broken since a few days after launch from reports ive heard from others in game, not sure if it’s been fixed then broken again over and over of just not been fixed yet but it’s constantly been at 2/3 waves defeated for as long as ive been popping back and forth between that zone and bloodtide for materials.

Grats on the legendary weapon, once i get to llvl 80 i may start the long road to crafting one myself, if i cant decide which of my characters i want to get a weapon for before then(i currently have a thief, a warrior, a guardian and a necromancer with my final slot undecided but likely to be either a mesmer or ranger) so i have a fair bunch of options for legendary weapons to aim for.

You’d think that considering your often with a known hero of your race in these story missions that the mobs would go for them as much as you, then again some heroes dont seem to actually work as planned in the story missions anyway(often just standing around whilst you get mobbed constantly, logan for instance really needs to be tweaked so he actually uses guardian skills that help the character instead of just using that one random buff then doing nothing of ntoe the rest of the time) so most likely they’d only be a slight distraction to mobs anyway.
