the taste is something between pork and fish. sure, it an unusual taste, but once you’re hooked, you’ll never want to miss it.

Still, as you can see, people just accept it as if it was the most natural thing in the world…

because after over a year of complaining we gave up and simply ignore turrets out of existence.

crowd control.
i play decap engineer now and then for about a year now and i have only used ar after everyone said it was totally op to test that. to be honest, i dropped that trait pretty fast, since there are many other options not only to survive but also deal enough damage to get the kill at far.

i quite don’t like the loss of control of where i am playing. i don’t appreciate a machine choosing for me where i want to be.
i also fear that organizing larger events might become hell on earth with the megaserver system. why not make a list of opened overflow instances? what would be the problem to list all overflow instances and let the player choose on which he wants to play? would there be any downside to that? aside from resembling the guild wars district system…

It wouldn’t be intuitive at all. If you’re a new player, you have no idea what “overflow instances” and all that junk are. The majority of people heading into a map do not care which map instance they get put into.

You already don’t have control, because you can’t control if the map is filled and you get sent into an overflow. At least with this system, you’ll be put with folks on your own server.

it doesn’t need to be intuitive. i would expect using at least one or two neurons actively from time to time would do no harm. if your brain can evaluate a whole combat situation it also should be able to comprehend a single digit list and a button.

Fix the kitten loot rights code!

zaced.7948

I’ve never seen loot depend on whether you were partied up or not; I think that’s a complete myth. At any rate, I’d like to see sombody do a real test.

afaik the minimum dmg done to an enemy so you can (!) loot him is partywide. solo you would have to do this amount of dmg while in a party (assumed your party has done enough dmg) you simply have to tag it once.

We had a lot of texts/phone calls over the weekend on this, as many of us have been watching this thread.

I just wanted to thank you guys again for keeping it civil and constructive.

Great job arguing your points. It makes it much easier for us to look at your points/counterpoints when you guys do such a great job communicating.

translated into human language: thx for talking, nothing will happen, though.

btt: there is no counterpoint to not implement this rune into pvp.

You still make the same mistake, even when I pointed it out to you. You keep writing “recieved” when it should be “received”.
Like I said, you are wrong. No further messages needed.

do you really want to be that grammar kitten kittenbag noone likes? you kinda kill any reason you might have had with flaming typos.

yeah, well, by now everyone should know what it means when anet is talking in superlatives. seems to be quite normal for companies to endlessly exaggerate nowadays.
so if you let yourself get hyped by anything anyone says, it’s pretty much your own fault.

PvP only items are the ones getting stripped. That means things in the locker, or any item obtained through PvP. None of those can be sold.

+

They’ve already said about PvE skins that it only goes into the wardrobe if it has been account or soulbound. So if the GS skin is still able to be sold then it won’t be put into the locker (otherwise everyone would just buy one and then resell it and still get the benefit of the skin).

thanks for clarification! i wasn’t able to watch the stream yet (because twitch sucks harder than a black hole).

Dear Arena Net.

If you really implement this rune in PvP , I will kill 10 kittens and 10 puppys , I will make a video this genocide and I will send it to you.

Amically yours.

i don’t care about the puppys but under the law of the ministry for cute furry cuddles the punishment for felinocide is death.

Player’s don’t need to do anything with their items. Everything in your equip slots, inventory, locker, and bank will all be stripped upon logging in and unlocked in the wardrobe.

what if i happen to have a greatsaw greatsword skin on my bank, will that be stripped and put into my locker so i cant sell it anymore?

i also would be very interested in an answer to this question. i seriously hope that sellable skins will not be put into the wardrobe. if so i might have to park everything in the tp for unreasonable prices.

You can have a different look in pvp. Just buy some cheapo white items for a few silver and skin them with the charges you get for your pvp rank. Then when you pvp, just equip the white items.

you forgot that those items will be stuck in my inventory, taking up space. but hey, i can always buy inventory space for gems, hooray!

but there is for sure a statistic how many players have which class and how many hours they played with it. therefore they can easily see which one is the bigger population and to which one it makes the most sense to appeal.

Posted by: zaced.7948

zaced.7948

the problem is the very small engineer population. you can ignore the loss you make by engineers not buying gemstore stuff if you can f.e. sell tons of stuff to warriors and guardians which are simply much more. would you invest in satisfying 5 people instead of 50?
there are simply not enough engineers for anet to care.

emphasis on “they could”. this “could” would need work, work needs to be done by people, people need to be payed. why would anet want to spend money if they can just ignore the problem instead?

i think it’s time to stop whining about this here. it’s not gonna happen since anet already said that the hobosacks are how others can distinguish our kits. also the general engineer population is small enough to be negligible.

on the other hand we might try one last time. with words anet understands:
how much money would we need to pay to get this fixed?

they haven’t fixed it until now and have not once even answered in any thread about this. so it’s pretty much carved in stone that this will never change. charr are a small enough population amongst players to not care about them.

Why do this charrs???

if you think quaggan consist only of fat, you are highly mistaken, sir. you should try it out, their consistency is similar to frog legs. the taste is something between pork and fish. sure, it an unusual taste, but once you’re hooked, you’ll never want to miss it.

I think fried tengu legs are better then quaggan fillets. I guess it all depends on how you were raised. :I

i think it depends on how it is marinated. i personally don’t like poultry that much. amphibians however i find very tasty and quaggan are simply the tastiest due to their muscular structure. the belly is good because of the layers of fat and boiled quaggan eggs as well as quaggan balut are simply a delicacy.

it is doable. however only with very specific items at the right time. it’s extremely difficult, even probably impossible for one single person.

norn have supernatural strength, so what? if i bite their neck they die. if i rip their throat they die. like every predator charr have weapons built in within their bodies. i wonder how strong a norn is after the arteria brachialis is cut.
norn are meat. bigger meat, yes. that only means there is more to eat.

Blue Knight gets healed from 40% to 100%

in Battle for Lion’s Arch - Aftermath

Posted by: zaced.7948

zaced.7948

I just watched a mender heal a normal mob. It doesn’t heal instantly to full. It jabs the target a few times, each time recovers a good chunk of hp (15-20% ?). If the knight healed from 40% -> 100% instantly, then I’m not sure it was a mender.

a recovery of 20% with 3 menders equals those 60%. it might not have been a single one but more than 3.

level crafting from 450 to 475 on any char (to level those chars f.e.). there might be a time when you want to level up a craftsmanship fast and might be in need of these. however if you have all your crafting maxed out already you could just craft a stack bricks for future uses and throw the rest away.

on the other hand i wonder why adding those ls-rewards parallely with the ls update isn’t standard. though i very much appreciate this (as i did with the bags during wintersday), i would like to have such an implementation as something completely normal and regular instead of being some kind of special reward patched in one or two weeks later.
