Just saying A-net has a core team of gamers testing content before it launches and to help them with balancing
The game is balanced around 5v5 not 1v1.
I like the idea tho
Give everybody the same healt,no traits,.. and the same set of skills (or let them choose from a variety of weapons, like sword, spear,…)
and let other players watch and bet aswell, this could be something players would actually do if they are bored, looking at you keg-brawl.
maybe make it in Black Citadel, give players some reason to go there
Uh, asfare as I know Sylvari/Humans/norn do not have claws
(Norn as a spirit do have them ofc)
I have had some ideas about how it could play out.
First, some general thoughts about fighting the ED’s
A-net could make a X-pack and release one ragon at the time, incl some zones, they could also release those zones with the living story: Push to Jormag’s Lair, every month a new zone…
While doing it with Living Story could be cool, I think it would be better with X-packs. Now Still 4 Dragons to go (maybe 5) a Dragon per pack would get boring. now if you think about it, Killing zaithan just became the main goal at lvl 50, in the half of the personal story. 2 dragons per pack makes sense one for the first half, one for the secon half, with the limited amount of space on the map(except for Primordus and Bubbles) this also makes sense, while the CrystallD is big, is it big enough?
Now about kralkie itself. what could happen?
KRalkie is going to Arah, alot of orrian artefacts and pact magic is there to consume, now the war with Zaithan is over and the pact is focusing Jormag Kralk could easily eat alot over there, Zones: CD,Cleansed Orr(southern Orr) Arah(explorable Area)
Kralketorik went down to the south becaus not only his champion Glaunt was stationed there, but also because he was close to some area with alot of magic: The desolation. When the 5 Gods smited Abaddon and trew him in the Realm of Torment alot of magic came free, Magic which Kralkie would love to eat! not only that but the mists are really close there after Nightfall has happend. more magic oozing out of the mists for kralkie! jummy!
one problem tho, good old Palawa Joko!
Outdated:
(if you do it this way you get: CD, Desolations opportunity to release rest of Elona in a Living Story way, Fight Palawa Joko or Join his Army, either way you unlock more of Elona, a Elona under control of Palawa Joko, or one freed.)
You Have elona and a moving border(like Kurzick/luxon Border in GW) you choose wich side to fight for:Palawa/sunspear. while doing events in your faction controlled lands you gain Faction, the higher faction you have the more titles unlock, new weapon/armor skins unlock. you can ofc lvl both factions, by just passing the border. your faction also can get passice buffs, but these only count for the faction where you have the most faction, these buffs could be: reduced WP/armor repair costs in your faction (the buffs activate at a higher rank, like rank 7 reduced armor repairs, Rank 10 reduced wp travel,…)
New pvp battles:
You can also gain faction in PvP fights, not just control points, but matches with special mechanics(think of Jade Quarry/Fort Aspenwood, or even Alliance Battles!)
Guilds (or finnaly release alliances!) can take control over small cities outpost(think butcherblock, ascalonian settlement) wich can be destroyed/taken over by oposing factions with DE.
endless PvE fun assured!
this one should ony have 1 dragon(alot of content)
My thoughts on X-pacs, any other thoughts?
an yes I know A-net isn’t planning to do X-packs soon
-wouw
edit: my new ideas(you can read them if you scroll down) talk more about a elona x-pack
Moving this to Suggestions, not rly alot of lore anymore
(edited by wouw.5837)
don’t you want to see a Orr without those risen and brown landscapes?
Well we all know our dear plant friend (no not Caithe) cleansed Orr. If you open your map you can see that the southeren area of Orr isn’t used yet and that it borders with the crystal desert. So release the Kralketorik expansion/living Story and give us the desert/parts of desolation and the left over part of Orr(cleansed ofc, maybe a fight between Risen Branded) and as the final dungeon: Cleansed Arah, you might even put some branded creatures there!

If you run with some guildies you don’t really need AR. Sometimes I help out my guildies to fill up a spot in there party, they do lvl 20+ sometimes 30+ and I can easily do it (only dying @ maw, who just 1-shots me), I am a thief tho so I evade most agony
as always if you are trying to get back in it, run with some friends/guildies. People who don’t get mad if you fail at something
Combo fields are constantly used in WvW, Air fields and fire fields to preperate a Zerg Vs Zerg fight. In dungeons as a thief I cluster bomb everything, you can easily give people stacks of might massice heals, combo fields are awesome!
and I don’t like the defined roles, it’s fun that (most) professions can do multiple roles and try out alot of things.
I disagree, but
if you want to change it, take away peoples skills, add more objects(bottles, torches rocks) so you are forced t kill eachother with traps.
than, don’t play it?
so somebody invents something in game, wich is obviously higher advanced than previouce inventions and that annoys you?
it’s called evolution
game up
While it’s really fun and i would love more zones, it’s getting boring quick, make it a seasonal and let it return every april and add some more things to it, but next week everybody will forget about it and do there regular things.

I was in TS3 and said it in TS3, everybody was like, WTF? stop smoking dude.
Now I know I am not going mental!
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAarhg
won’t work, in every tutorial you need to kill.
OR maybe let some friends guide you trough the Tutorial, without you actually have to kill the boss, I suggest a Asura, you only need to kill the Golem
I’m a REAL practicing Druid…
We DO NOT shape shift.
I’m a REAL engineer.
We DO NOT detonate explosives under our feet and call them “Rocket Boots”.
you don’t?
You can’t call youself a REAL engineer than!
Berserker GS warrior is useful in dungeons, tho I still prefere THiefs, Eles in general pve/PvP, Thiefs get mobs down superfast and can stealth tho get skillpoints ( really usefull in Orr!) Eles are just great in alot of situations. I suggest make a class you like (general PvE) and a warrior for dungeons.
In GW the Aggro worked rly smart, mobs always went for the healer, or just the general backline and the tank had to fight for his agro.
I geuss in this game it works the same, people with low health, or high dmg get prioritised
Shelter gate camp has a few
1 dude in our guild almost got his 3th legendary!
well yeah, it depends on how dedicated/ lucky you are
Actually every thing you open/kill has a chance to drop a precursor, I had a guildie get a precursor from Shelter Gate(before the nerf, before the slight buff, before the nerf, before DR)
and a few guildies got it from dungeon chests.
in theory you could get a precursor from lvl 2 creatures in Queensdale (got lvl 80 rares from them a few times)
but that chance is even lower.
Depends I got bored of my Ranger soon, while I love my ele
A friend of mine hates Eles but loves rangers.
IMO Rangers are easy to play and as strong on lvl 1 as on lvl 80
Eles are weak on lvl 1 but stronger on lvl 80 and requires alot more player input, is alot more dynamic and in that way also harder if you don’t like moving swapping attunements.
I am not sure, but Power increases the base dmg you do and Crit dmg is how much dmg you do while critting, so I don’t think they inlfuence eachother, but if you want to do alot of dmg crit dmg and power are both important, as you won’t crit all the time
Yeah, nice for the RP’ers ( I should really get into it, it seems fun :p)
Maybe you can do it by using the LivingStory, make two important characters fall in love and make them marry (As in GW:HotN), sell wedding costumes in the store, etc
And ofc the wedding ring costing 200USD and lets the entire game (crossservers) know the lucky pair! (not stolen from TF2)
Druids are (Konig, you can always correct me ;p) Human travelers/outcasts, who went to the Maguuma Jungle and started to become one with the jungle turned into spirits who can turn into trees, I remember being a theory (before launch, right after BWE3) that the Pale Tree is a druid, as sheis a spirit.
You can find a druid (involved in Event chain) in South East Brisban Wildlands
Now about a profesion, as mentioned above, a mixture of the Dervish and Ritualist, attune to Auras of the Gods and call the help from spirits. (would come close to ‘druids" I geuss) wouldn’t really work, as all races believe in different things and so change form (a mechanic like the Elementelist s’ Attunements) , MAybe you could change the names(but not the mechanics) depending on race,
Norn: Spirits (Wolf, Bear, Raven, Snowleopard,( Owl,Hare)
Humans: the Six( Lyssa, Balthazar, Kormir, Dwayna, Melandru, Grenth)
ASura: things to do with the eternal alchemy
Sylvari: rules of ventari ’s tablet
Charr: that’s the problem, they don’t believe in gods. maybe Blood, Flame,Iron,Ash,…
or you generalise it to things like: Death, Life, Power, Beauty/illusion, (Nature, Truth.)
They started the easter drops in GW in 2007, 2 years after launch,
I geuss they do the main holidays first (Halloween, wintersday, April fools Day (Hopefully something in summer, why not a Non-Human tradition, we didn’t see in GW, could be cool)EDIT: Birthday event could be in the summer
and in a few years when the main events don’t change alot, they can put recources in making something small for the smaller events (St.Patricksday, Easter…)
Plz, stop saying the grind in GW2 get’s worse and Worse…
You finish your story -no grind needed
You get your gear -No grind needed(you play through your storyline, you have enough gold/tokens/mats to get your gear) (I see Ascended as a downgrade, as you can’t use runes/sigils)
OFC there is grind, just like GW
Ask yourself why do I grind? Is it for the legendary(like) weapon? well THat is made for people who like some grinding( isn’t really alot, go play some KMMO)
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Closed-of-gate-at-Wayfarer-Foothills/first#post1549052
got some screenies there
April fools event speculation: all players are transformed into quaggans for the day, random instances of “oooOOOooOO” and “foo” added into chat, and everytime someone types “me” or “I” it’s changed to “Quaggan”…
Actually, could we have that as a permanent feature?..
you can get a unendless quaggun potion with all thse functions, you can make it in the mf with:
combine the gift of legendaries(all legendaries) the gift of ecto (1000 ectos) the gift of farming(1000 porous bones) and the gift of the karka(250 Passiflora/250 Passionflower/250 karka shell/gift of karka slayer(1000 karka kills))
the succes rate is ofc 33%
otherwise you get banned for 7 days
Why did Logan survive the Elder Dragon? He ran faster then Snaff!
Asura are to selfish, if they could take over the world, they would constantly fight eachother and the other races would be able to stop the Asura dominance. No race in Tyria is powerfull enough to control the world (except Silvary, there population grows incrdibly fast, but they are still to peaceful to take control, give them 100 more years,…
Try WoodenPotatoes on youtube, he isn’t always 100% right, but he covered everything, did a complete GW playtrough, etc and is fun to listen to.
Agree, I love them, but I did them all already :’(
Being one of the last man standing in the Hunger Royal was pretty fun, or running away of a million branded in plains of ashford! good old times, good old times,…
Mursaat obvious
Rata Sum is a anagram for Mursaat
well yeah, but what if all the magic is consumed, BUT the other ED’s
I just wonderd, they consume ALL the magic and if they consumed everything except eachother why not eat eachother? you could say: hive mind, but would they attack eachother? maybe they just can’t “smell” dragon magic.
We know Elder Dragons are a big source of power (that’s why the Asura built the central transfer chamber right next to Primordus and the Goods chose Arah as their city to live in (I assume this, is this been proven?)
We also know ED’s want to consume all the magic in the world.
Shouldn’t they need to consume eachother?
We don’t know alot about them(yet), but as far as I know, your guild will research a mission, when activated it will launch a banner anywhere in PvE(like the extra karma banner) everyone(including non-guildies) can join the instance that way,the objective is to get a set amount of people trough the objectives, if you do that everyone gets a reward, the guildies get a extra reward and the guild itself gets a currency used to buy guild-wide beneftits, like reduced WP-travel
it works like this:
You buy the game in the US/EU zone,
you activate it in the US/EU zone
Once activated it can be played from everywhere
when I was 7 I played videogames, it helped me with English, reading, maths, solving problembs etc. I’d just let her start with videogames which are 6+, just so she can get the hang of basic videogame mechanics, also sit next to her and let her play 30min-1hour a day (I hated that, but now it seems the best). play the game aswell, explain her what’s happening. “why do the bandits need to go away?”
people don’t die in this game, they get defeated!
You might want to stick to the Asura/sylvari/human zones, as they are the most colorful. Orr has some evil theme + it’s annoying!
I don’t know if you can, but disable chat aswell
yes, please! I get tired buying new monitors, everytime I trow my phone at it!
reminds me of the turkey room in AC, lol’ed so hard when I found it at launch :p
I don’t see why a guild can’t call war on a other guild(if people don’t want to fight they unrepresent or there could be a option "Idon’t want to fight) and fight eachoter in the open, could please the openworld pvp people, without negativly influencing the non-pvp players
+GuildWars isn’t from the Guild Wars Lore, it’s from the PvP, when GuildWars just was a PvP game, it had the name GuildWars, when they decided to add PvE they just kept the name
or bunker (ele, guardian), and the fact that an entire group of players (and NPCs) can be trolled. At same time I missed the old days Kurzick vs Luxons where things like this don’t happen
the bunker warrior, who blocked the turtles, that was anoying!
About the ZAishens in LA, does it mean we have contact again with Cantha?
more info about the new tokens and how to get them?
Info about a new expansion?
What will happen to GuildWars? are you going to keep 1 server up with player made donations, is it just going to shut down, going open-source?
might be a late response, but I agree
as far as we know there is no vertical progression? as stated by a-net: ascended gear should’ve been there on launch, but yeah we finished it to late
Humans, just can’t get enough of them
well let’s say you get downleveld 5 lvls, it makes the content alot harder, you will need a good group of people working together. isn’t ta what alot of people want? hard group play, seems a easy way to implement it, and ofc better drops(named exotics of champions, when killed in HM?)
BLTP is alot easier, sell what you want to trade and use the money to buy what you want.
