Scale Hero Points based on players

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

The HoT maps aren’t as full as before, and asking help from map does not always help. Like if you missed a group getting it, and none of them want to do the HP twice then gg. Isn’t it possible to just let the Hero Points scale so they’re doable if you’re the only person there, then make it harder if there are more players? It’s not even that long since HoT was out and the maps aren’t as full and active anymore.

Progress and credit after crashing

Is it possible to get credit tied to your account? I just crashed while in a VB t4 map, and I worked for those events and had no way to go back to my previous instance after disconnecting. The maps are not always full but with no way of trying to go back to my old map, I lost all that work and credit. (I’m aware some people ‘party’ as a solution in case they DC but can’t it be designed that you don’t have to do this? It’s really discouraging and it’s not so easy for me to get a t4 map based on my timezone and play hours)

Must fail event for precursor collection?

Unfortunately it’s the same with some other collections like Twilight (failing Orr events). I hope Anet fixes it soon!

Need help! Can no longer see maze in map

I’m trying to do the achievements (Connect the Dots) from LS2 and the guide shows a map of the maze, but I can’t see it inside the game anymore. Is this a bug, or have they made mazes harder?

any tips?

when the name was released, I was playing in game and haven’t watched it. we were in fractals, I was on my guardian. then one of my friends asked me,

“have you seen dragonhunter?”

and I said, no. I was wondering — is that an anime? a movie? what was that i should’ve seen?

comparing it to when people started talking about the “reaper” on map chat as soon as it came out, and i immediately understood.

i think it’s a very obvious example of a disconnect with the name, “high concept” as they call it (which I googled by the way, and in no way did the name feel high concept as a casual player the first time i heard it).

now i’m convinced that they’re not changing it for whatever reason, but people /have/ given their own suggestions and constructive feedback despite some people here saying their objections are invalid. we may be looking forward to the update / specialization but i feel like people are so quick to dismiss it when some players feel that the name has a disconnect from the game. it was our experience, and just as valid as anyone else’s.

Farming in Orr

I don’t want to stop people from playing the way they like, but today was the first time I entered an Orr farming map. My bf and I started to go to this event thinking it’d be a temple event and we wanted to join in. Then in the middle, we were told to stop doing this and that because they just wanted to farm champs. It felt terribly unpleasant, because I did want to do the event/play it, but now it seemed like we were supposed to move maps if we wanted to find a place where people were not farming. Hearing something like “stop, don’t finish this event” just didn’t feel good.

Another thing I’ve experienced are people “blaming” those who actually do the events, especially on map chat, which is just very unpleasant. For a lot of other players who are just casually paying the game, I don’t think it’s good to call them out like they did something wrong when they’re just playing the game.

I would rather if people farm something, it’s not stopping other players from enjoying the game the way they want to either.
