Guild Wars 2

It’s obviously Kilroy Stonekin

smezmer.1206:

I hate the quaggen, I hate them so much >_<. I think I’m the only person in this game that truly despises them. I’d much rather be a Dredge or even hopefully (though painfully unlikely) a Mursaat.

Racial skills: Summon Jade bow/JAde Armor/jade Cloak

Racial elite Skill: Spectral Agony: Does
1k dmg a tick for 10 seconds: isn’t counted as a condition, recharge:15secs

OP RACE FOR THE WIN

(only avaible in the gemstore)

Is there a speed boost? because the WvW maps are to small for that.

Otherwise they are a mobile golem meant to fight players instead of walls/gates.

I could see a functionality for this, but maybe make it like a Alpha Fight Golem or something

1. Like short dungeons?
2.Agree, why no Priory/OoW/Vigil faction points, unlock extra merchants/rooms
3.This could be a extra guild mission, BUT I can only see this work with a LFG tool so small guilds can look for other small guilds, They could put the lvl 80 legendary bunny back in Wayfarer foothills :p

A variaton on this could be: finish a guild rush as fast as you can.

4. Yes, a bit like the GW challange missions, they could add a scoreboard and give extra rewards for: Daily/monthly/quarterly best

5.Gemstore only, so maybe mercaneries, you can only use char’s you have unlocked.

Quaggun utility skill:
Cry: Hurt yourself for x amount of dmg
FOO:gives your enemy various buffs

This LS makes me think more and more of this mmorpg called Adventure Quest Worlds I used to play, they had every week a new zone and often players could grind out mobs to make 1 side win over an other and influence the story in that way

Hello, these are my thoughts about the living story: earlier, now and later. I post this because I haven’t seen this PoV on the LS yet

Flame and frost: Testing the living story, is it doable? how does the crowd react to it?

Conclusion: It goes to slow, it’s better to tie up loose ends in the GW2 universe than strating new stories.

Southsun cove: Make SC more appealing to players, end up the FF loose ends (refugees) ,begin with a new story arch.

Dragon Bash: revist the GW1 Dragon Festival, but focus on the battle against the ED make a connection with the new LS

Sky Pirates:Tell the story about the Inquest funding a gang of pirates.

Bazaar of The four winds: introduces the sky city and the zephyrs. Rumors about them having the Glint child.

the Bazaar of the four winds, actually ties in DB/SP and Bot4W in one cohesive story:

DB: tells the people:“hey the ED’s are still here!”
SP/Bot4W: Inquest is interested in ED magic and the Zephyrs have a Glint baby, but they are high in the sky and just come at land once a 30 years or something->Inquest fund SKY pirates.

This is getting interesting, right?

So I think they first were not certain were to go with the LS, but they are on the right track right now.

The glint baby story could go all ways, Crystal Desert/Kralketorrik/Elona even…

But we will see,..

in 12 months 500 points ( it’s still a minority who has 50/50) is nothing, heck it isn’t even so much right now

why can’t they just give me everything when I start the game?

Just mail it back, the copper will still be in the mail and he will see he send it to wrong person

JQ is still being run offten, FA, barely, maybe @ US prime tile while it’s bonus faction week.

Don’t forget the Challenge missions! have you scraped all the lands?(there is a texmod file for this, check the wiki) there is a small glitch you can use to get 2% @ the North eastern Luxon town (look @ the wiki for portal jumping)

hope it helps

During the event they are a lot more common (was it 4 extra nodes? + as reward from the race))

So I’d stack up on them, oh yeah you can also exchanges some things for the drop bags with the recipes, wich also contain the Quartz

The double team is great in this one

I don’t think they will do in-game event’s based on arabic holidays, translation? idk, maybe, if enough Arabic people play

Mesmer, I haven’t played it myself a lot, but it has a high skill ceiling can do all the roles rly and is great in Pve/sPvP/WvW

The profession you are using.

I actually thought this system of the lower tiered you are the smaller the maps are, the higher tiered, the bigger the maps
PROS:
Fun for higher tiered servers
Fun for lower tiered servers

CONS:
A-net needs to make new maps, which costs a lot of dev time
Lower tiered will never play the high tier maps and vice versa

Well A-net can’t do anything about the one server having more people than the other

I don’t think that’s true, NPC’s say there are multiple CoJ’s, I think they were scouting/Pushing Jormag’s corruption soutwards. But they can’t become the new Jormag.

The power of the ED isn’t the same as the Power of the six, I don’t think 1 being can handle that amount of power anyways.

What I love to think is that the dragon we killed wasn’t Zaithan, but it’s just the biggest champion of Zaithan. Zaithan is much bigger dragon and after you defeat “Zaithan”, he pops up :p

Over the course of 10 months I gathered a lot of infraction points,

Can I see the amount I have?

Can they go away? because I made 100x good posts instead of infraction points posts (yes that word exists, from now on..)

Well people think I downed my foe, I WON his hp bar reached zero!

well that’s the PvE way of thinking, In PvP People aren’t defeated yet before they are, well… defeated.

You have to see the downstate as just a new phase your foe gets into, like a boss in PvE.

1.uh, idk is that your team?

2. press ‘b’ while in game, afterwards I don’t think so

3. Maybe you are looking in the wrong region(EU/NA)

I had the mess aswell last month, but suddently it got fixed (for me)

Watch out! A-net is always watching!

In GW2 you can’t find the story by walking up to someone with a big exclamation mark above his head. You have to look for NPC chatter, look for monuments, books, etc.

If there happens a event and people complain about the lack of backstory:
1. They joined the event when it already started
2.They didn’t listen to the NPC’s
3.They didn’t listen afterwards or didn’t follow the NPC after the event (do it, it’s cool!)

While I know it’s harder and it took me a while to get used to it (When I was lvl 30 I started doing everything slowly and talked to a lot of NPC’s)

With click 300 this and 200 that content and no expansion i don’t expect this game to last long enough to make it worth it. Yesterday we had problems finding 2 random players for CoF, there were barely any people at entrance, we were shocked. If it’s not a sign GW2 population is seriously droping i don’t know what is. So the answer is no

Maybe your server sucks.

No, I agree. People are dropping from GW2 like flies. I had to guest to 2 different servers just to get a party for CoF, and even then it took around 4 hours. I expect this game to last about another year, at most, and if it lasts longer than that, I’ll be seriously surprised. The way Anet dished out those RNG boxes really got to a lot of people, so they left to go play other games.

Dude, nobody yells in map chat LFG anymore, especialy not @ CoF, we all use gw2lfg.com, and it keeps getting harder to get in CoF PArties, idd, why? because they are full when I /Join them. I fel the game lost a lot of people between september-December, but around Wintersday it stablized, since wintersday there is a big influx of new players (atleast on SoR)

Ascended gear (Weapons?)

I am also in SoR and I suggest you to get TS3 and go to ts.zerodrama.org
it makes WvW a lot more fun!

sPvP: do hot join (the PvP Browser guy @ the LA Portal) untill you know the game(PvP isn’t Pve!) and than go do Tournies, because that is were PvP is the funnest.

FotM, I suggest you find a guild for everything, just because it’s 1. a lot more fun 2. it’s easier to find dungeon groups 3.Guild Missions 4. they will have more patience
the first lvl’s could be done in Green lvl 80 gear, but I suggest going for Exotics

Gear: it depends what prof you are and what build you are working for, I crafted my first lvl 80 gear, but nowadays dungeon running is the best for Power/Precision/Crit dmg (Berzerker gear) because CoE/CoF are runned the most. The temples in Orr can also give you Exotics for Karma(Check the wiki for more info on stats) @ Fort Marriner in LA are mukltiple vendors which sell you rares and exotics(you need the exotics) you can check which dungeon gives you wich stats.

lfg.com is a great tool, but I wouldn’t use it to run a dugeon for the first time, use your guild for that!

If the stats you want isn’t from a easy dungeon, you might want to go the TP and buy it there, or craft it, this are the most exspensive but fastest ways.

A thief for exploring: shadow refuge is great for skillpoints + SB number 5 shadow step skill is good for avoiding mobs, I have solo’d a lot of champs, wile it wasn’t easy (Frking mobs reset when I am in stealth!!!) it wasa doable, especialy melee only bosses (blind/Shortbow’s strafin abilities)

I am @ 900 hours and got a fair few, mostly of dungeon chests, I got one out a wvw chest this morning, it had the Zap skin, it was only 100 times as cheap :’(

While you say pref not WvW, it’s WvW, on most servers friday before reset it’s karma train and it’s just cappin as much as possible, every tower/keep lord is a champ and you get easy champ kills

EDIT: or dungeons, CoF P1 has champ, other dungeons have more

maybe you overlooked a POI in one of the WvW maps

new content every 2 weeks, let them last 3 weeks(+atleast 33% perm content)

Awesome idea!

But leave Orr as it is and do this for the Jormag push or something

I think it is because the Germans are a big group of GW(2) Players and French/English are 2 big universel languages, don’t forget there is also a Manderin client in beta!

So those are 4 big languages, Italian is just not spoken by many people

(I don’t know if there is a Spanish Client, but that could be useful)

Colin Johansen, he can swing his sword again and again and again…..

I’d love to see some more cohesivity between events, take Temple of Lyss for example, right outside the temple is a event which requires you to look for Spectral weapons, what if you finish the event, the zone (or people @ Lyss) get a ‘Spectral Weapon Buff’ Do x%Extra dmg to Risen.

and so on.

I don’t know if it’s going to happen now, but a dev confirmed they were working on Raids, but Raidz Guildwarz 2 Stylez.

So I geuss something like Urgoz Warren, the Deep, Fissure of Woe, Underworld, Domain of Anguish.

We will see…

Yup, Polymock is your best bet, the portal and the arena are already here, just the mechanics

I thought so, thanks!

Hello
Today I went To gw2stuff.com and saw they had a overlay feature wich showed the dragon timers, which were about the happen.

This seemed pretty useful, but than I wonderd, does A-Net Allow this?

I know they allowed Texmod in GW or even some other mods, do they here?

Please GW doesn’t require more skill than GW2: go to gwpvx.com, click the game mode you want, let’s say general pvp, select Meta, no be a Paragon, get the skills/gear, done you can destroy everything in the game (if you have a good hero build).

And I like in GW2 I can set my own rules and do what I want, I enjoy the events and talk to every NPC, I also started following DE people after you helped them, almost all lead to extra dialogue or a follow up DE.

There are 2 kinds of candy wich are named after a dragon one is named after Zaithan (SPOILER HE IS DEAD)
and the other one is named after Kralketorikk,

This super amount of proof must mean it’s Kralkie who is next!

Well, let’s be serious, who is next, I say Jormag->Kral->Primordus->Bubbles->Modremoth

While I’d prefer-Jormag>Kralk(opens up routes to Elona, so more new about Joko Ono->Bubles/Modremoth(can’t decide wich first)>Primordus

Well let’s hear my reasoning, The pact is already Fighting Jormag’s minions in Frost Gorge. It is a dragon with alot of story behind him already (I mean events/enemies)

Next Kralkie, he is already been fought By DE. just like Jormag and Zaithan he has a World Event Champion. He is also has story behind him (less than Zaithan or Jormag, though)

Why Primordus at the end? because he can actually be everywhere underneath Tyria they could make small zone expansions (like in FF) and add lvl 80 destroyer spawns and entrances to the Depths of Tyria over in abandoned zones, so players will reviste older zones after all these expansions. Also it would be a Poetic, the first one to awaken, the last one to die?

What are your thoughts?

and what if we destroy the ED, isn’t the world going to be imbalanced?

Thank you guys for all the answers :-) It really helps.

Up until now I’ve been salvaging everything possible, so I guess I’m stacked with stuff I don’t even know why I have it.

Answered this above

Some other questions I didn’t think of earlier:

1- Living story

What exactly is that? Is it content only for this patch? Does it go away and never to come back? (comparable to episodes in STO)? Also, is it only for level 80 players?

They are 2 weekly content updates, wich leave permanent things behind, most are tempory, but some will come back yearly: like Shadow of the Mad King(Halloween) or Dragon Bash(June), these are Holiday events.

2- Personal story

I’ve done a bit of the story and it is really cool. Is it better to wait to complete it at maximum level?

No, you can do it ofcourse, if things get a little bit too hard, but it gives nice XP and lvl appropriate items, watch out though some of the LvL 80 reward items are the only PvE skins avaible of that item!

3- I’m running around as an Engineer, and I like to use the dancing flamethrower combat style :-)

Actually what that means is I have no freakin idea what I’m doing most of the time. I ride with the flamethrower, the flame-turret and the scrap mine thingy (Charr racial).

So I do pretty decent delayed damage to stuff in the word, and I believe I need to focus on gear that has condition damage right? I also chose to focus a bit on thoughness, because the traits where you get 200 extra TH while wielding it sounds nice.

I haven’t played a lot of Engineer, but while the Flamethrower is pretty awesome, I suggest using Grenade Kit, it’s the most powerfull one._

only salvage whites and the salvage items (metal scrap, piece of cloth,…) Rares if above lvl 80 and preferable with a master’s salvage kit or Black Lion Salvage kit, if your rares are around 60, you can always toss 4 in the Mystic Forge in LA and hope to get a lvl 68 one

me 3

Race changer is a no-go

but the rest, why not

/rank is already here :p

but yeah /wrank like /zrank in GW would be cool

sigh Typing this message for the 3d time as it keeps giving me a ‘rare’ error

2/ nope not lying I did Melandru yesterday and the last 2 minutes or so of the las event I tagged the same way I did before(Whirwind attack/whirling axes) and didn’t get anything, other than XP

It might be hard to comprehend, but I like to farm, I know other people in my guild who like to farm, i’m not really intersted in a legendary, but somehow I can enjoy myself in farming for a few hours and than do something else.

It’s hard to do variety as the 2 lvl 80 zones are CS and SC. And while exploring in this game is pretty fun I like to farm aswell, it’s the same like doing your dailies, do WvW, do Dragon Bash, help some Guildies or random players, lvl alts,… Why not change DR and make it viable to farm something else than CoF/CoE.

marnick.4305:

Hello I’m here to tell you DR is not a problem if you don’t farm. Furthermore A.net first implemented DR in 2004 in a game called Guild Wars Prophecies, back then still called Guild Wars. I don’t know why you’re surprised it showed up in Guild Wars 2.

So why can raptor farm for 3 hours and have not a change in loot, but at the end of one temple event in Orr I see no loot at all?

Did you play in early GW2? CS was filled with people, and I just like to kill tings over and over to get loot, the only reason why A-net changed this was beause of the Legendaries

Hello all, today I am here to talk about a big problem: DR/Farming. I remember GW2 were you could farm in Orr if you wanted and earn lots of things.

A-net quickly nerfed Farming and put in a system called Diminished Returns (or DR)
Because people got their Legendaries to fast.

So the price of materials went up and up and suprisingly UP

meanwhile people start complaining that after they got their legendary the game is to shallow and needs more rewards, so what is my solution you may ask, well a new gear Tier!

now hear me out, nothing more powerful than ascended stuff, it has the same stats, but they are LEGENDARIES Tier 2, so what is a legendary tier 2, well it’s simple it’s a even more epic legendary, which is harder to get. the precursor for let’s say the TIER 2 Great Sword would be eternity, for the mace: The moot.

Now A-net knows how fast people can get weapons, so make them almost impossible (let it take 2 yrs to complete or something) and Remove DR and buff farming, because the problem of getting legendaries to fast is over!

This Crazy/Epic idea is made by me:
