Q: about being a commander

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: cinemapaula.8673

cinemapaula.8673

IMO you should be able to see squad dots, OR have the option to see GUILD members on the map. (Orange dots, like with names.) Would be nice. On GW1, we saw everyone. I just want to see guildies!

Serious Question -serious face-

The 5 man party size is the reason I cannot understand why people take such serious offense at ‘PvE Commanders’. I am a guild leader, and we use Squads for bounties, and other GUILD events since, we have no other option. When you see Commanders in PvE, go a little easier on them, sometimes its necessary, and the best option for doing things TOGETHER as a guild. =)

I dont know.. IMO there are already WAY too many back items. Charrs, Quaggans, Wings, Birdcages, Roses, Tentacle…things….

I wish townclothes were ultra rare drops!!! THAT would be incredible! The gorgeous NPC dresses, and clothing as EXOTIC townclothes drops. <3

Yeah, I dislike the hologram crap. If anything, make the hologram projector a permanent thing on one of the tall rocks, or elsewhere, and give us back the fountain. I loved it during beta, and I miss it.

Ha! I find more people being hostile TO farmers, than event farmers griefing people. Honestly, how many invasions CAN YOU POSSIBLY do and ENJOY before you get bored and it turns into a farm fest.

A solution would have been to make an item we NEEDED the pieces for to attain. The shoulder skins were not overly attractive, and, everyone ended up with multiple pairs dropping, so we really didn’t NEED to beat Scarlet to GAIN anything since the payoff is BETTER loot-wise if you farm Aethers. Lets face it. Sure you can beat her and get 2-3 more things…. but… Pirate champs are more fun, and more profitable.

I was playing to win, but after the crazy number I NEEDED for achieves, farming is the only way to make the invasions ‘enjoyable’ at this point.

I will again say though – there are MORE people harassing farmers than the other way around.

cinemapaula.8673

Yep. I just did ANOTHER in Frostgorge. NO credit for ANY Meta events. This should be looked into – with an event lasting almost an HOUR, this is my THIRD with no credit given. SO frustrating.

IM SO hoping we have enough daily catagories to complete the meta, because Im frustrated and DONE with these.

Scarlett events NOT COUNTING in overflow.

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: cinemapaula.8673

cinemapaula.8673

I completed THREE Scarlett events in DIFFERENT zones in overflows. NOT ONE counted towards the meta achievement, and YES, she was defeated. With an already FRUSTRATINGLY GRINDY event that is sadly for hardcore players… (not us casual ones with work, etc) this is unacceptable and VERY annoying.

Please Anet, unbug these. Im not the only person complaining about this issue, its being talked about and COMPLAINED about everywhere.

Im tired of people guesting on multiple servers and camping Frequently spawning champs. These people are USUALLY the diehard farmers and have HORRIBLE trolly attitudes. PLEASE A COOLDOWN ON SERVER JUMPS. (I know, I know… only 2 GUESTED servers at a time, but make a COOLDOWN time between CHANGING to those servers!)

Guesting Cooldown?? Ch Farm Trolling

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: cinemapaula.8673

cinemapaula.8673


I only titled this topic “Guesting Cooldown?? Ch Farm Trolling” because “Guesting Cooldown – Champion Farming Bringing out the worst in people” was too long…

Wow… all I can say is that something needs to happen with Guesting in light of this new Champion Update.

On HoD if you are running around hitting champions, you WILL find a group of ‘Guesting players’ camping any given popup champ. They kill it, don’t offer the common courtesy of mentioning its up, and then IMMEDIATELY jump to another guested server for that SAME champion.

Why not have a cooldown period of HOW often you can jump to another server?

The problem is NOT these people farming, its the attitudes they bring with them. They let people die, often aggro ON PURPOSE to kill off people, they do not res other people, they troll in chat, etc etc etc.

It brings out the worst IN people, or, alternately, it just brings the WORST people out.

A cooldown time between server guesting jumps would help. No ’Kill champion. Change server. Kill champion. Change Server. Repeat, repeat, repeat….

Please… do something… I’m not the only one noticing, or complaining. Its ugly out there, when it USED to be fun! =(

Back Item Skins

Too many back items, not enough town clothes. I’d have been happier with a new Townclothes item than more and more and more back covers.

Quaggans (Several)
Charr (Several)
Ascended (many)
Toy Bag
Mad Memories
Wings
Wings
NOW THESE… the list goes on and on.

Not enough characters to use em all even. LOL
I wish there were even an option to use them as townclothes! THAT would be superb!

They need to update several. IMO It sucks that the work you put into ANY Legendary isn’t rewarded with shared effects. (ALL should have Aura/Footsteps) I mean, Dreamer has great firing effects, but lets face it – the skin SUCKS in itself, and it has no aura, nor footsteps.

C’mon Anet! Show the OTHER non-greatsword Legendaries some love!

I know some are complete, but some seem to still be lacking…. Im sure there is an existing topic SOMEWHERE but I either cannot find it, or the search function isn’t searching correctly.

I’d like to see particle effects on The Dreamer – and why no footsteps on it either?
Some Legendaries are complete and have excellent MULTIPLE varying effects, but others are sadly lacking.

The Dreamer has outstanding ‘shooting’ effects, but nothing else to make up for a less than spectacular skin??

C’mon… something? Its certainly NOT legendary material when merely equipped….

Flissy needs to play with some good rangers apparently! Ive never seen such a bad attitude towards a profession.

Im always welcome in groups – and my primary is a ranger. Ive NEVER had anyone complain, or have issues with my damage or playstyle.

I do love how people blame all fail’s on rangers though – when its not always the case. LOL “We suck, blame the ranger!” Yeah… these groups usually suck WITH or WITHOUT the ranger – while a good ranger can help dramatically!

One of our guild members was banned for botting – this is a person who talks with guild members regularly, and who I have personally played with in GW/GW2 for over 3+ years.

He was WITH another member at the time, talking and farming during the new Southsun content, and was banned for ‘Botting’ – which, he ABSOLUTELY was not doing.

He IS running the game on dialup, and I personally wonder if his connection speeds had something to do with his being mistaken as a bot.

Who would I contact, or what should be referenced to have someone personally look into this? This person is a LONGTIME GW player and a valuable member of our guild as well as a good friend. We are all VERY upset and sad that he was tagged as such, as, we all know otherwise.

I’d appreciate knowing the best way to follow up on this – as myself and many of our guildies are very upset and sad over this recent news. Please advise!

(I am the guild leader, and the entire guild was interested in knowing what WE can do to help fix this obvious misunderstanding.)

His ticket number is: #130516-001522

The person who was with him at the time of the incident would be happy to offer any information, as would ANY of his guild’s members.

=I Because when you FINALLY get to your home server – there admittedly ARE people guesting. If its NOT guesting – something STILL needs to be done, so your post is still highly irrelevant. Im talking about SPECIFIC dragon events particularly. Its only gotten bad since the guesting has started…. EVEN IF its people FROM the server – something HAS to be done, since events are basically no longer playable, OR enjoyable.

Guesting/Overflow? Serious issues at events.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: cinemapaula.8673

cinemapaula.8673

I dont know about anyone else – but its fairly plain to see that guesting and the guaranteed rare drops from chests is HURTING players on their OWN servers.

The last few dragon events Ive ‘attempted’ to go to have been immediate drops into overflow on Henge of Denravi. When you get to the event IF you get to the event – you are surrounded by unfamiliar faces and guesters. (Along with horrible lag and disconnects.)

Funny enough, I didnt notice these issues until guesting started….

Its getting to where doing large events in a team on your HOME server is near impossible if you want to actually… enjoy it… or GET there.

Anet – you need to do something about these issues. I know its not just me – every event has people discussing this in mapchat before and after.

I hate dodges, and I hate WvW so thats not the answer for everyone. I go to Queensdale and always with Guildies. When Im standing for my 40 second dodge completion in the middle of about 10 moas I obviously aggro’d and am running in circles from while a guildie watches on, I think its safe to say I don’t need the help. LOL

Im amazed at how some players don’t see the obvious. Ill be there and see someone run over with the whole “ILL SAVE YOU FROM THOSE HOARDES OF USUALLY NON AGGRESSIVE BIRDS YOU ARE DODGING REPEATEDLY FROM!” Facepalm.

However, I usually say “Im doing dodges!” before they get TOO close. LOL

Its very heroic, just kind of annoying when you just want it DONE. =)

I was looking over Mesmer again trying to decide if I should re-roll and if I re-roll, which light profession should I move to. I have enough medium armor ones, and am not a fan of heavy armor on females, so… Necro or Ele might be more my forte. Its a shame, I loved Mesmer in GW1 SO much.

I think possibly Mesmer may be more fun for those who play WvW or PvP. I dont do either, so I hear many of the best builds are much less effective in PvE. Well – that seems to be the rumor anyways….

cinemapaula.8673

Kanto – I think I havent put much time into build due to my not enjoying playing the profession. I never even unlocked the second book because I was that unsure I was going to keep this character. XD Ive been trying it out, plodding along half-heartedly.
I LOVED playing Mesmer in GW1. This is NOT GW1. I do not like this version of the Mesmer at this point.

The reason why???

I think my issue is that I absolutely hate the clones. I don’t like the idea of them, and I hate using them. They feel like a silly novelty. I would like the class if not for those – but, I really just cannot stand them.

I SOO wish they were weapon linked so you could choose to use them as skills, or, not. In Engie, you can CHOOSE how to do your damage, but in Mesmer I feel forced to use a play device I do not enjoy. I don’t like the concept, the animation, or the execution.

Maybe due to that alone, I need to re-roll, but I always hold out hope Anet might give us the option for a clone-free build, which, I know, is a pipe dream.
