Agony is a bad design

I don’t have too much of a problem with the way agony currently works. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a gear gate, but for the most part it’s a minor one. It does force players to do the lower levels before doing the higher ones, which will be handy when it’s opened up later this month to let any level player join a group doing a much higher level fractal, which is fine. But…

Most things in this game can be gotten with tokens, and not that many; Fractals is different. 15 AR is easy, but the items needed to infuse a ring are account bound and random drops, and I have been having some rotten luck. I have a TON of tokens, and I really wish I could just buy the materials I need.

Cultural Headgear for Sylvari is terrible

I’ve tried all of the cultural light armor, and I end up just leaving my headgear turned off.

t1- Floats around when my head moves; it makes it look like I slapped on something that’s a size too big.

t2- I like it, but I use the ‘long’ hair style, (the really popular one with the three lighter colored leaves :P) and the clipping bothers me. I’m sure it’s fine for shorter styles.

t3- Reminds me of Seven of Nine, and I don’t feel like a Borg-inspired look fits my mesmer. Honestly, though, I’m not a fan of a lot of the t3 set. I spent a lot of time getting the shading on my Sylvari’s ‘skin’ just right, and I don’t feel like covering up all that awesome.

I tried the helm from the Feathered set, but that set seems to cast this brass-colored shadow under the raised parts that just does not go with my skintone (barktone?) otherwise that would be perfect.

In my view, the Trinity Needs to Come Back

“Oh, you’re bored with the trinity? Did you beat <name of top tier boss here?> Because… You can’t talk about being bored if you didn’t!” is not the way to open a discussion. I’ve seen it on the WoW forums way too much from their fanboys, so please don’t come in here with that attitude and call everyone who disagrees with you a fanboy of GW2.

I don’t want a trinity; I like being able to spec how I feel like and use what weapons I like. I don’t want to sit in LA and spam for a tank/healer; I like being able to respond to any of the LFMs I see pop up. Which is good, because I don’t see that changing.

Yeah, the introduced a gear grind, but it’s a lot less work than most other MMOs, and hopefully the outcry at it being added taught them something about their player base.

Deceptive Evasion is horrible in dungeons.

I hate having to turn it off when it’s so useful for the build I’m running. I try to avoid it, but sometimes I have to. It’s the only case where I’ve seen clones target something other than what I’m attacking and it’s really annoying. I hope they read this and get working on it. :/
