Says need to validate my identity.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/gw2stats/
So far the status.

I am actually working on a web version of this in .net…
If anyone wants to join in on helping let me know via pm.
Working on this in my spare time..
Almost have the models done with full data seeding.
after that its just all ui and the api controller.

SE, its the only dungeon i run even till i am getting no loot and hardly any tokens!
Love it!

I am a programmer, if drops are client side then you can just memory hack to make you drop what ever at what ever rate.. IT has to be server side… They took the opportunity to put in other stuff.. More than likely pre download of assets for teasers for expansion.

Drop rate should be server side not client side…

Just curious, the chain sword moves on the blade has sound but thats about it..
It feels incomplete / hurried / unfinished when looking at the great chain sword..

Any possibility of an update to it in the future? or is it a wysiwyg?

TRICK or … well TRICK!!!!!

patch!!!!! just have patch inc!!!!!

Are keys going to drop more or have other ways of getting them?
Or is this gem store only?

maybe the ones from the chests are perm.

LOL no reply…. Devs… i am seeing stuff for lower sale on the TP than you can vendor it for.. thus able to make 50%+ profit.

Is this supposed to happen, lower than vendor sales on TP

Also i actually Saw us hit medium for a refresh as i was checking the server list.
Back to high now… But high dont mean much.

Its sad now… In orr we can barely hold the typical karma zerg locations.

Anet please consider making the “Gifts of X” non account bound, let them be sold…
This way you can Boost crafting a bit with some sales, and give crafting professions some use for others who do not want to grind out the profession etc..

Just seems logical.

i was hoping for yesterdays missing patch but i guess the date is the 22nd.
ANET <- Willing to beta test :P

Commander is pve is actually useful.. Setting waypoints and orders… Using squad chat and commands for the invasions.. It basically is a classic RAID, now if we only had a UI for squads… It would be the pve equiv of raids.

Yeah people want it bad… You see the gem price jump… people buying gems cause they saw it.

Here ya go….

The above is a jest

omfg its anet third reich from the sun!
They really need a set formula…
everyone knows computer random gens even seeded are bumkis.

ty
I tried hard… i laughed.

Added to a site =)

YAY! Maybe i just did not convey the first one correctly… i find it hilarious :P

Wow the humor mill went awol today :P

How about this one???

Get a laugh??

The first one is a play on mesmers, people saying they are op…
And logan thinking he is all that and a cup of tea… add in the rivalry between him and ritlock.. It made it funny to me.

i wanted to to another one with two guys talking… and one asking the other “You ever wonder what it would be like to have a mesmer as a wife?”

Cause i was laughing at the idea of it… actually the idea of it was more like me trying to go to sleep and my mind going rampant… I still look at it and get a laugh…

Here ya go…

I got a chuckle outa this…

EDIT: This is a play on mesmers, people saying they are op…

Same… I need a diff mists char :P

How about tokens or rewards that give us just skins, no stats and stuff for our main chars…

IE skins we can transmute onto our normal pve gear…

If it had this many would play more!

The thing I have not seen said is this.

“People playing uses up bandwidth and resources which = money.”

So yes they want people to play, but it does not hurt them to only “let you play” for a hour or so. You have already paid for the game and unless your cash shopping a ton, the cost vs expenditure actually is a loss.

The cash shop does not have much on it in terms of value really, except turning gems into gold, which the inflation in gold has killed that option really.

Honestly what I would want. Give me a item on the cash shop, a subscription fee so to speak, that will give me back the game I played at launch (Plus the Trading post please).

Id pay for no dr, better loot, repair costs, waypoint costs etc.

I remember pre karma patch getting my level 40 cultural weapon at 40.
You cant do that anymore. Arena Net, we want to support you, we want you to be successful, we want to give you some money, just please please for the love of <insert deity name here> don’t ruin the game any more than it already has been.

At least give us an option to pay our way out of these DR, Karma price increases, etc…
If you did that, i am sure a ton of us would pay, and everyone happy.

Yes it would be optional but at least its some sort of compromise.

Ya mean like this :P

I love my Pseudo witch hunter…

Pistol whip build…
With Haste on weapons from proc…

Focusing on Crit chance at 40% the rest in crit damage..

Heal self doing damage with malice..

Its a nice solid build… But light on the health / toughness..

Pretty much YOU have to be doing damage to stay alive..

and yes those are chaps :P

Heres mine…

I love the cowboy / gungslinger look..

Its probably the only medium armor i can tolerate.

yeah what happened?

Yesterday about 4pm i picked a nice fight.. was fun… amazing what a grp of 4 can do …

You set down a ram and BOOM you get a war!

I have a server where i can host a big team speak server if you want…
(Ventrilo costs for slots)

And we can have a Server TS for wvw..

Koil started out on Anvil rock.. we went to JQ for a while… the ques suck… now we are back!

Look me up Dimentox or Buldegrad up for grps in pvp.

Yes.

Kite with #3, ae with 2 fast cast ie explode in air target it on self

use #4 drop poison and then drop #2 on it without exploding and you get area weakness.

etc etc..

I use my shortbow more than my melee weapons lol.

http://dulfy.net/2012/09/24/gw2-crafted-armor-gallery/

The draconic is nice the light one is nice…

Why on earth did they make the Medium armor look so bad!

Can we get a new skin pls…

• i know its never gonna happen lol*

Has anyone tried to use the same recipe you use for mystic weapons but substitute the hilt and blade with like the two armor components?

Like the two shoulder parts you need to craft the exotics?

There are some cool looks you cant get anywhere else besides PVP it seems…
Any chance we can have the ability to get those items from a story vendor or something once we complete each portion? Like say i did the x story.. i could go back and spend (A LITTLE KARMA) for the skin only?

Example the leather Commando stuff.. LOVE the look… I was fortunate to save it… cant seem to find the boots though.. I would love to be able to acquire the looks i missed skin only for pve not pvp.

Jade quarry – Dragon in frostgorge bugged
Skill point in beetlerun also bugged

Off hand Vanishing powder…
2 min stealth (1/2 movement speed) PLS! lol
Makes sense.. and would be an acceptable 3rd slot for no weapon.

I would say offhand should be Stealth powder…
And be able to give us a LONG 2 min stealth or such..(with 1/2 movement speed)

same issue. Greyed out level 80

There have been some changes that I would consider the results are a bug / breaking changes.

As many of us who will read this know MMOS are a dynamic game, and that they do change. This is
expected and we know that stuff from launch will not be the same down the road.
Guild Wars 2 (GW2) so far is a darn good game but things have started taking a downward spiral. It
seems that the developers have started the OMFG I am in panic mode patching and changing things.

* Enter first change
Players found a BUG where prices for items were set too low. They bought tons of items and
converted into epic items at the dreaded mystic forge, thus gearing out and making money.

o GW2 Solution:

* BAN players for their bug, Raise all item costs to sky high amounts.

o Result:

* Casual players can’t afford these type of items
* Example: as a level 40 I was stoked to get my karma epic weapons.
Finally I get something that I could have some coolness to and feel like I achieved.

o Reasoning?

* They do not want people to take these items and make money nor get epic weapons ?
* They want to continue to make money and get people to buy gems for gold?

o Better solution (maybe):

* Remove mystic forge (Maybe?)
* Set sell prices of used items to 1 copper.
Change Tier COLOR level to not work in forge.

* Second Change
Players buying karma items for cooking and selling made items for money
(Is this so bad really?)

o GW2 Solution:

* Make karma items for bulk items no trade
* Make crafted items no sell.
(Why have vendors anyways then? Or even craft?)
* Ban Players for using this method to make money

o Result:

* Players can’t help friends with getting materials for crafting.
* People using other methods to gain materials such as abusing overflow / Relog.
* Crafting turned into a money sink.

o Reasoning?

* They want people to buy gold for gems?
* Extreme control over economy of game.
* This is understood and expected, but this is harsh.

o Better Solution?

* Lower Sell price.
* Change bulk items from karma to gold.
* Have crafting cool down which after x levels or creation you need a break.

* Third change
Some level 80 items were being sold for cheap thus giving the same effect as change 1

o GW2 Solution

* Make cost extremely high.

o Reason

* Mystic forge combine into epics.

o Result

* New level 80 players cant get a custom look from their order choice.
* Gear who is good for looks and unique but crappy stats is no longer desirable.
* Frustrating to casual players who want to make their look unique.
o Reasoning
* Mystic forge combines into epic gear for gold.
o Better solution?
* Remove mystic forge
* Make this gear exempt from forge.
* Lower gear tier level so can’t be combined into epics
* Fourth change
Items Bought from vendors can’t be broken down for materials. Or people were getting sigiles
out of karma items and selling?

o GW2 Solution

* The problem is the solution for GW2, I do not know why but this change was
due to one of the previous changes I think.

o Result

* Players who want to level up crafting have to get drops and can’t buy their way
to get materials.
* IMHO if they want to buy the mats they should be able to, it gets
xpensive and is an acceptable money sink.
* Hard to get sigils to gear out your fresh gear?

o Reasoning

* There must have been some exploit or something that they did not like thus
ruining a valid method of leveling up crafting and such.
* They don’t want people getting sigils for karma?

o Better Solution?

* If it had to do with the forge remove it!
* To be honest this change is just not needed at all.. Would have skipped it.
