Guild Wars 2

Bad Grind, Bad Story, Bad Bugs, Bad Traffic, Good Rare Loot 1, Good Rare Loot 2, Good Exotic Loot1, Good Exotic Loot2, Good Exotic Earring, Good 20 Slot Bag.

It’s all summed up for you.

Can someone on an active server invite Alice Doe? Lava falled and missed, would really really appreciate it,

it’s 150g and going down.

Yes they shoudlve scaled the rewards, look at the lvl 80 market crash.

I am in level 2!

I have been doing level 1 for 5 times, and I failed level 2 twice, apparently twice someone disconnected or left because their patience is as enduring as a kittykat.

And I think the time spent looking for a level 2 group (who doesnt lie that someone is a first timer level 1) was lame!!! HOORAH!

I think you missed the most important part of being level 80.

It’s like a graduation cert that you seriously knows your character well, and can maneuver through unconventional situations when presented.

Compare the chances of getting a job from a higher education graduate, and someone who left school in the middle.

Not that I’m with those “80s only please”, but its a reality check, and reality sucks.

This whole post and title seems like a threat to remind Anet about whose paying the bills. Really appreciated.

You are just inciting a riot here.

And to compare WoW power creep with GW2’s. I am a 3 years WoWer, GW2 aren’t even a pint close, sorry to say.

I with all the dissatisfaction from the community, I think Anet will reconsider any tier restructuring from now on. So there’s no need to incite a riot around, Anet knows the problem very well.

I speculate its for level 80 farming, to mitigate some of the crowds from Cursed Shore, and give more farming options.

Anyway, the events has yet to finished, I see some camps that has yet to be occupied, so stay tuned!

I saw quite a list of available Ascended Mystic Forge backslotters, but none was with +healing.

Anything sighted that hasn’t gone on the official wiki?

p.s. the back items from the tokens are a grindfest disaster, can’t even reach level 3 for decent tokens from the bad lobby mechanics.

I think there was something that sounded almost like

“delve deeper into the mysteries of the impenetrable karka shell, and find out about the shocking history behind the karkas and it’s shell.”

……..uhm, sooooo…..

CelticWish.2314:

I love the idea of an infinite dungeon design. But anyone should be able to go in at the highest level anyone is in the group and not the lowest. Then once complete everyone moves up one level to where they were prior to joining.

Player 1 – Level 5
Player 2 – Level 5
Player 3 – Level 3
Player 4 – Level 3
Player 5 – Level 1
Team Decides to play Level 5

After completion of Level 5
Player 1 – Level 6
Player 2 – Level 6
Player 3 – Level 4
Player 4 – Level 4
Player 5 – Level 2

That way you can’t power level someone from say 1 to 5 in one run, but they can be in a group running higher content then their level. Everyone just moves up one natural level.

This is much better! Definitely! Limiting to the highest level instead of lowest!

Hyrodsan.7034:

Can’t you get together a group that you enjoy playing with and play consistantly with them? It’s a bit difficult yes, but AN wouldn’t be comprimising content to be limited to a single pug difficulty just so that your life will be a bit easier.

That’s a great option I know, but making a permanent 5 man group, and logging in at set times? That sounds like 9-5 job for me, and I have one thank you.

Aren’t games suppose to be something like “I play it when I feel like it”

SamTheGuardian.2938:

I was hoping for something more comparable to the intro of a film or at least something as good as the cut-scene sequence I saw following character creation).

Hahahaha, a gigantic crab jumping over some tower and knocking it down, epic cutscene I’d say!!! Worth my anticipation as much as Zhaitan in Story Mode!

I farm dungeons with occasional pugs. My concern is valid.

I post about this awhile ago too!

It has only been a day, and technically, we already have 3 Fractals, probably dozens more to come, and it the difficulty OF FINDING SOMEONE will increase.

I ran level 1 for 5 times now, imagine my frustration, despite the fact that I personally think I’m ready for at least 3 or 4. It’s just too hard to find a level 2 group!

Dear Anet, by introducing this level system into Fractals, you introduced unlimited dungeons.

It has only been one day since release, and people are looking for either level 1, level 2 or level 3, effectively making it THREE dungeons. That if in the future, would make even 1000 dungeons possible.

Like most of the peoples here, I PUG random peoples for dungeons usually. And I have ran this dungeon 5 times, and all on level 1, pretty annoying since I am sadly still stuck at level 1, decently rewarded and all despite all my readiness to get it onto probably 3 or 4.

And to add icing to the cake, we can’t replace anyone that left, and no waypoint for anyone that died? I had been doing level 2 twice, and twice, someone left, and that’s all, Disband!

Personally, I think making a experience point levelling system on Fractals would be much much viable, instead of going 1>2>3>etcetc. It’s an annoying system, other than that, an excellent dungeon despite the controversial Ascended.

same with me. annoying

francisling.2987:

Anyway, just hoping that you will look into this matter and review it in the future. But definitely not now, definitely, we’re already having a lot of ‘see-saw’ nerfs and buffs every week it’s hard to keep track, and the extremely controversial Ascended, it’s enough for now!

I think I started my post in a very very friendly and thoughtful manner to everyone. I am not ‘demanding’ changes while banging the tables here…and I specifically used the word ‘review’. So then what pops out?

“why not play a game that offers that option?”

“And I’m (almost) serious ; I don’t see myself playing this game anymore with the ascended crap. Let’s cater to your true core audience and change Guild Wars 2 into Generic Wars 2.”

Not hostile? Moderator, can you lock this topic? I’m out and sorry to bother.

Share your Secrets? I had some ‘matured fun’ with another woman when I was still married. Lol.

Glad to see this topic go hostile! Anyway, I think most of you severely misunderstood me when I say ‘Bring back the holy trinity’.

It’s by no means to kill ‘self-survivability’ all classes currently have. And it’s nice people don’t have to spend 2 hours to find a healer for a dungeon.

But would it really hurt anyone if healers and tankers gets their roles improved, I mean, trading out less dps for more group support & tanking usefulness? And probably some ‘recognitions’ for our ‘assist kills’?

It sure is a hostile week, sensitive peoples out here!

krookie.6378:

Here we go. Gear progression whiners got what they wanted, so now we’re starting with the holy trinity.

Oh hell, why not? Give us raids and pandas while you’re at it too, Anet!

Not whining, I’m not DEMANDING changes, read. I’m suggesting, in a friendly manner lol.

Yea, that’s it! That’s the problem Pukknub, Would love to see a bit more teamwork going on! Everyone playing their favorite roles and actually be useful in it. It’s a mmo after all.

But anyway, I do understand the general difficulty of finding a tank or a healer, and on that, Anet has it in the right path!

Cursed shore was very much populated until the patch today, I was wondering too. CS was definitely not an ‘empty’ place.

Please understand that being a tanker or a healer isn’t an unwanted chore, a lot of people actually love it, and to see that group support traits(skills are oo-kay still) are almost always at the end of the line, and aggros are so messy that tankers are not even viable, is pretty sad.

Moreover, this DPS-preferred community seems to be ‘all in for myself’, as seen in most world events and dungeons, people using group buffs are next to none, with everyone strictly on their own dps, killing anything that is marked. Theres barely any sense of synchronization going on. That’s what happen if you promote a single DPS community into taking care of their own healings and tankings, they start thinking that they’re the ‘chosen one’ of sorts. Even combos arent much to be bothered as far as teamwork goes.

Anyway, just hoping that you will look into this matter and review it in the future. But definitely not now, definitely, we’re already having a lot of ‘see-saw’ nerfs and buffs every week it’s hard to keep track, and the extremely controversial Ascended, it’s enough for now!

p.s. I’m a dedicated healer throughout my entire mmo life!

And I don’t really care if any skills or professions are OP, too hard to handle blablabla.
Anet, if you wanted to nerf multiple skill’s damages and durations 10-50% EVERY SINGLE PATCH, this is not the time anymore I’m sorry, you had multiple BWEs to restructure everything. Now we’re at an official release. You don’t just mass nerf skills and professions every week on official release to ‘feel the flavor’.

TheIronFistOfDeath.3016:

I’m surprised these MMO players are dissatisfied with the latest patch, said no person ever. Business as usual “This game with millions of players isn’t tailored to ME!” Considering I’m not paying a subscription fee, I welcome any content and patch. No MMO will ever be perfect, but I always appreciate ArenaNet’s effort.

I appreciate their efforts too, I really do. But indecisive and constant nerfs that forces ALL my characters to change my gears and play style? All within a few months of release? You think my full exotics are cheap?

Furthermore, Anet HAD a great game since GW2 launch.

But you know what? I think they ‘overlistened’ to the players and changed basically ANYTHING some baby whiners were crying all over about. They need to have a set perspective on how they want GW2 to work, making at most, tweaks, not radical additions within 2-3 months of releases.

GW2 should revert to Beta if Anet can’t set a perspective on how this game is going to go in a long-term period.

Go feed some cows in queensdale for 30 minutes, then go pvp for 15 minutes, the n probably plinx for one round, then you could consider hanging out in Lions Arch and blurt nonsense in the map chat.

Play the game the way it’s ‘meant’ to be played. Sounds familiar? Pffff.

Carcinogin.7654:

I am disappointed in some of the changes made with this patch, mainly the evasive wave change, If it was not intended to have it as a blast finisher well I say to you perhaps you should re think that. Arcane was the only worth while thing to get 30 points in, now I have no trait line that lures me into putting 30 points into. I like the elementalist play style it was unique and different and had me constantly moving and dodging. Elementalist doesn’t seem to be a completed class I have no intention of playing other classes. I hope you guys will be able to make the class more complete if it takes some months i guess ill see ya in some months but until then I think I am done, I got my monies worth, then robbed at halloween event but oh well. Feed back take another look at the classes after your done with your fixing and start balancing it. Please note I do not pvp I have a crappy pc lol

THIS. This is how I’m feeling Anet, don’t merge threads and soften the problem. Make ONE SINGLE ‘restructuring’ on long-term basis, instead of all those extreme makeovers every patch!!

Every patch comes balancing so severe that eventually forces people to change their play styles and probably worse, Equipments. And you just don’t know what skill is going to be cut by half in Damage or Duration next patch!

For my own example, I have a Guardian and a Thief, few patch back, my ‘Save Yourselves’ suddenly got cut by half in pvp duration out of the blues. This patch, my thief is getting ‘Dancing Daggers’ nerfed by 50%

I find this very very VERY annoying, and I think these balancing should be accumulated into ONE single ‘restructuring’ instead.

I am not opposed to balancing, mind you, in fact, it’s a good thing to even it out. But I am all-out against such frequent AND extreme balancing.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Gift_of_Mastery, almost there don’t give up!

Um…i think you got the recipe wrong, you’ll need to merge Exploration gift into Mastery gift?

Has been happening occasionally for a month, not as frequent as annoying, but worrisome.

Been getting forcefully logged out of the client while in game, with the notice of “incorrect password” popping out. Changed my password, but problem still persists.

Does it mean that someone is attempting to crack my password?

I’m not against Ascended ideas, in fact I’ll gladly take it as ‘Legendary Armor Sets’ or somewhat.

I’m looking at a lot of comments that aren’t very supportive of what Anet is trying to do around, “I LOVE GW2, IF YOU DO XXX, I’LL DROP THE GAME”. That’s not constructive and supportive at all, let alone loving it.

But I do admit that a lot of us here needs more things to do after 80, but it might not necessarily be gear grinding for the better ones, maybe more challenging contents, and better aggro systems definitely!

Full exotics aren’t hard to get, but getting that right gear and stat combination that really suits you, that’s the lovely part of the whole game.

And if Anet really wants to roll Ascended stuffs, make it a long run. I think our complaints are mostly that concern that 6 months later there’s going to be ‘Super Ascended Items’, and another grind all over. Otherwise, I’m all in for Ascended, do it Anet!

Oh and the solution seems to be changing an area, or re-equipping the affected body part.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but this bug has been around for quite a long time now.

If, let’s say I load my character who was in/on the water, or enter an area which starts with swimming…their body, legs, and feet becomes see-thru transparents.

No one has mentioned this around, so I think, well maybe its just my buggy client.

Check your GW2 folder, it’s basically a drag and drop folder. So all you have to do is copy and paste the entire folder.

I always do that between computers when they are having huge updates such as Halloween ones, no prob at all!

Spent on one stack of keys, that’s all.

Did not get anything good out of it, but these things works like gambling, it’s going to suck you in on every box you open. So take control of your addiction!

I’ve done the Clocktower for hours, I finished it yes, but the fact that the last leap was pretty much annoying, utter troll-up, and inconsistent.

Of the dozens of times I have reached the last leap, I SPECIFICALLY touched the broken panes, and very well sure I did hit the solid areas of the panes.

I got lucky once and somehow hit the ‘invisible bullseye’. That was my glorious day. I’d suggest that for next time, if theres such similiar areas, please, please put a ledge instead of asking us to touch some unreliable broken panes.

Had the same problem a while back, I think it was corrupted file due to bad downloads, thank goodness I had all the 14gb client stashed somewhere else as backup, so I copied it back and restarted the whole patching process. Tada worked!

Having the same problem too, right before the first wait, I get teleported out for no apparent at all. Every single time, even after I logged in/changed map.

Sometimes it evens teleports me to the rooftop/water, and teleports me back to the beginning point, and immediately after that, kicks me out.

Strangely this happened AFTER one or two ‘mini’ patch back, can’t be sure which one, they were so close.

hmm…disabling AVG works! Thanks Syn, but theres still noticeable up and downs in download speeds, but disabling AVG somehow allows the download to continue after going down to 0kbps.

Yes, I’m having the problem too since & during the halloween patch, but it was something like a ‘yo-yo’ download speed for me, it goes from 1mb/s to 0kbps and up and down very very frequently.

And I’ve tried it on at least 4 different types of internet and 3 different computers, some will eventually finish, some will die out like your case. But all of them definitely has serious consistency issues. Need help too.

I play my GW2 across multiple computers, and multiple internet locations.

During & after the halloween patch, I start noticing that update speeds are very very inconsistent throughout, it will start at maximum speed, drops to somewhere like 0kbps, and goes up and down very very frequently.

On some internet, the download will eventually finish, but on some other, it will just stop after the first ‘down’. But on every internet(like 4 internets and 3 computers) I’ve tried, the update speeds are definitely inconsistent. All the firewalls are down on gw2 application.

Any ideas?

Dear Arenanet, my ISP is using dynamic IP, and it seems that I cant quite enjoy a smooth ride for more than 5 minutes.

I am very much thankful of your airtight security, really.

But I think I’m talking for the majority of the peoples that doesn’t stay at home 24/7, 365 days a week. We move around, trains, cafes, even state to state, so at times, this little flexiblility is very very very much appreciated.

At least give us options to set our email authentication by Country, or something slightly more ‘lenient’.

I don’t think doing that will compromise your entire security or takes years to develop, but it would be very very very much appreciated by us. Thank you!
