I play a female character in Final Fantasy XIV when I'm actually a male. I will do E V E R Y T H I N G in my power to make sure GW2 and GW3 fails. My horde of discord friends will help me.
>>570714690*whispers* nice femgu
>>570714690As much as I shit on the lazy job ANet is currently doing on GW2 in order to develop GW3, the base mechanics of the game are too good for it to fail.
>>570714690people who play ffivx don't look like that... do they? oh my god
gw3 won't have pvp
>>570712001QUESTION: why did Guild Wars 1 and 2 fail to take off as a primarily PvP MMO like Lineage, DaoC, and WAR?Is Anet going to abandon the namesake of the franchise and make Guild Wars 3 a PvE game?
>>570716349The thing is, the name Guild Wars has nothing do with players or player guilds being engaged in a war.
>>570716349sPvP is one of the least played modes in GW2, only WvW survives. ANet stop caring a long time.Competitive modes are too biggoted for a 2028 game, Collin is trying to fix all the probleminos with mmorpgs from this decade.

>>570715153What's wrong, big boy?
>>570716349GW1 failed as a PvP game because it was built for teams of 8 and relied on having a team of people with coordinated builds, whereas other explicitly-MMO PvP games tended to allow groups of flexible size and usually allowed lone players to just tag along and follow a larger group even if they didn't join the party outright. Any chance it had of establishing a niche for smaller-size PvP died when MOBAs started to expand beyond the original Warcraft 3 mod version of DOTA (which GvG was pretty obviously patterned on), except with smaller team sizes, solo queues, and progression that was limited to within a match (the time it took to grind skill points/Balthazar faction and go capture/buy skills was considered a major impediment to the game in 2005).On top of that, ArenaNet set an unrecoverable precedent for themselves in how many skills and classes they added to the game with Factions and then Nightfall. Realistically, the game needed to sit with the original Prophecies skillset for a few years to develop balance, and when the expansions started to release, that changed from difficult to impossible, and prompted them to adopt a seasonal approach to balance where they would just buff a bunch of skills they wanted to be used in the next season, and nerf the ones they didn't want into irrelevance. That was a lot less interesting than the original proposition, that every skill should have eventually found a place, and PvP just tailed off from there.

GW3 will be good if they don't include raiding or any form of pvp
>>570716349>>570718497GW2 was different because it doomed itself due to mismanagement and the lack of any real plan for post-launch support.There were for sure some design issues that hurt it (while GW1 was a genuine attempt to beat mass-market MOBAs to the market, GW2 SPvP was playing catchup from the start, which you can kind of see when you look at how many launch-era Elite skills were trying to be MOBA 'ults' rather than an evolution of GW1 Elites).But the main reason it died is that ArenaNet had no plan for how to keep funding the game after it launched. LW1 was a disaster which led to HoT being a panicked attempt to get SOMETHING out the door that would produce revenue other than Gems, to the point that the first LW3 release took NINE MONTHS after HoT to come out because they couldn't afford to have any of it in pre-production just to get HoT over the line.Since the game was just scrambling to keep up from launch up until it fell apart after LW4, and competitive modes were seen as things where the content came from other players and development could be put on the back burner aside from the odd balance patch, it got neglected and eventually just burned off everyone but its dedicated audience.That said, other than Lineage, I don't think GW2 is actually less successful as a PvP MMO than your other examples. It's just that it's MORE successful as a PvE MMO, and those games really don't have that.
I am returning and trying to decide between warrior and ele to do all of the story content on. I was getting bodied on the ele until I swapped to water fresh air and warrior is very easy but still entertaining. I'm worried warrior might get boring, ele feels flashy but the more I look into the different builds everything feels kind of shallow and samey
>>570721037Consider: Burst skill feel good to press.
I was told by the youtubers tier 1 fractals are easy? Well it is for me at least but not for the retards who dont understand they need to stand in the small dome when they get skulled 5 times and still fail.
>>570720140>ArenaNet had no plan for how to keep funding the game after it launched.false.gaynet very vocally had a plan in place for monetization, it was their whole gimmick for the game. they went all-in on thinking shitpvp was going to be some massive e-sport the size of league (probably even thought it would be MASSIVELY bigger, in fact) and that people would spend money to buy custom arena tokens because...??? they never really explained why the fuck anyone would be buying custom arena tokens evennif shitpvp had become a bigger than league e-sport, but needless to say the complete opposite happened, no one gave a shit about shitpvp because it sucked ass and almost nobody was buying custom arena tokens, which is why they then pivoted to maling p2wcashgrabspansions when it became inescapable for them to admit that shitpvp was a resounding and total failureit was a shit plan from its very conception, but it was a plan nonetheless, and a plan that they very vocally declared many times over the lead up to and the launch of the game, it existedthough i'm sure they hope that everyone would forget that it existed, since if they had a single braincell among them then they would have advertised and banked everything on wvw and the subsequent gem sales from millions of server transfers per month, since that's the only thing that had even a remote chance of being a smash hit in terms of popularitybut instead they strangled wvw in the crib out of jealousy and in order to cut off the nose to spite the face, and they never stopped strangling it, ever increasing the force of which they applied to wvw's neck as time went on

>>570716349>WARThe game flopped, GW1 PVP didnt take off because Mike O'brien is the literal antichrist with his stupid decisions despite having FA/JQ and AB.

>>570726563canon eod ending
>>570721037I'm playing condi berserker and it's fun :)
>>570716349from what i've seen in other games, pvp players don't really know how to cultivate a playerbase. toxicity and shit talking are naturally a part of any competition but realistically speaking, most paying customers (the people a business would want to attract) work a job all day and don't really want to get shit on by pablo no ingles for their few hours of leisure time. dad gamers get memed to shit but if you don't cater to them at all, and actively antagonize them they will take their money elsewhere.also league of legends, valorant, what the fuck ever else are free and require less legwork.walk someone through how to get into guild wars pvp and compare that to how long it takes someone to get into one of the other popular pvp games. it's a pretty big difference.
>>570729017wvw really doesnt take that much to get into, you can more or less get your bearings in a week of playing a couple hours a night and sort of know what you're doing after a month or two of the same, i'd argue other games are way moreidk about spvp tho
>>570716329
ho i do that dumb shit warrior build that go zoom zoom around in wvw doing 12k crits and no one can catch him

We should exchange Taimi for Tybalt.
>>570729931i forgot to mention that boosting is an option if you are a paid player but the point still remains. there are too many hills for a customer who is interested in wvw to climb.very few people are going to say "i want to play the wvw game!" and stick around for that long when there are alternatives with much less friction.there's also the whole "i don't like this class in wvw!" debacle which means you have to go back to square one. don't like a league champ? try another one in the next match. there's even a rotating selection of free champs to try out each week.
i don't play wvw because its rage-inducing and boring as all fuck at the same time

guysi quit this game after end of dragons because it kind of felt like the end of the storybut i came backand now there is a super cute demon girl constantly whispering in my earsometimes she talks about killing peoplesometimes she talks about killing methis is such an upgrade over aurene whining about rainbows or whatever gay shit she was on aboutplease tell me i get to marry her and have procreational intercourse (to replenish the genocide i'm enacting against all these other demons)
u wan pray gamu
>>570737210>upgrade?No.>marry?No.
>>570736969two bottoms
is squad chat disabled by default? every time i see a new player in raids they refuse to respond to anything maybe they dont even see we talk to themwe had to carry one mute guy with 0 (zero) mastery point doing 2kdps through w3 and people here will still call the raid community toxic gatekeepers
Why does Rama always look so nervous
>>570737210unfortunately the story shits itself in a little bit
>>570740903He's never taken charr cock before
>>570741187as is tradition with guild wars
>>570741958nothing like your first time
so like, sylvari cock right? do you think it is like shoving a carrot up your ass? or more like a bunch of lettuce? iceberg or romaine?
To be honest, every second player character in this game looks like some fucking idiot.
>>570744805why
>>570736969It's no wonder fcharrs crave the bhc. Is every charr player a faggot?
>>570745393charr's are probably bi
I warmed up to ranger spear, it sucks that it isn't as hard damaging as other options despite it being more difficult, but at the end of the day it's quite fun
>>570739875And the second you say one negative thing about him he’ll be turned off raids forever. The only receptive noobies I’ve ever run into were the ones who made their own groups.
>>570745393If mcharr are gay then femcharr looking like cuntboys is an evolutionary trait.
Why do all Elementalist builds have you running berserk when you mainly deal condi damage? Should I be running condi gear?
>>570748892you could always go full viper
>>570750836honest question for ele, is there any downside to running celestial when youre not in a raid trying to parse?
>>570751439yes. unless you plan on tanking, anything with toughness is bad
>>570748892this is why
>>570751838Wait im retarded. You can use cele outside raids all you want. Its still a meme though.
>>570745393Hear me out...
okay google
>>570748892Most Elementalist damage is not Condi damage unless you're running a Condi build or an Inferno build (and Inferno sucks now so if you're doing that, don't).Use Condi gear if you're playing a Condi build, and Power gear if you're playing Power.If you're just leveling up or playing Core Ele or you just picked traits at random, just do whatever you want.
>>570721037Both Warrior and Ele have the ability of using almost all of their weapon skills in some form or way, so you'll always have a variety of playstyles to keep yourself from getting bored>>570748892There's a trait that makes your burning scale off of power

I didn't realize you can cap the wizard vault currency. What should I get first, ascended weapon or armor chest if I don't have either
>>570724203shalom, hymie!
>>570754394>alive game
>>570754601First, what class are you playing and what alt classes do you have at 80? You might be able to get some free ascended weapons that you can actually use, saving you astral acclaim
>>570739875i don't get how people do that. i've been trying to push my dps as close to my golem number as i can and i still feel like i'd be dead weight in raids.
>>570754394my favorite part is going to a new map only to get the "go to a new map" message within about 6 seconds.
Whoever decided that all the living world shit needed to be 10x more obnoxious than the regular expansions is a fucking idiot retard piece of shit faggot that I hate with every single fiber of my being. Why the FUCK would you see "people are enjoying this expac, they really like the mechanics" and decide, EVERY FUCKING TIME, to go "hey, lets make it wally more obnoxious and add random normal enemies that go immune and reflect and throw out stupidly wide encompassing AoE bullshit everywhere", and then every time people said "what the fuck man, we just wanted more of the same, not pseudo-raid horseshit" and then you STILL DO IT THE VERY NEXT TIME. Jesus Christ! What fucking retardation is this? If I wanted to play raids, I'd go fucking play a raid you cockgobbling shitstain of a human being.
>>570739875That's an open world hero finally trying out new content, it's funny to imagine how slow they're pushing their buttons >>570755094Not all of the benchmarks are attainable, some of them are very theoretical. No matter how well I play I can only get to 95% of my benchmark on the golem. So long as you do about 80% of your benchmark, you will be alright
>>570745393I crave elderly femcharr

>>570758118This walking bag of exposition and bone cancer is still going to plague GW3 by voicing a third of the NPCs
I'm narrowing down my choices. I'm down to Warrior, Revenant and Necromancer now. I'm going crazy right now because I prefer the light armor designs but I can't possibly make this the sole determinant. I thought the skins from wizard vault and gem store would facilitate my decision but they're not good enough. The sheer variety and simplicity of light armors reigns uncontested.
>>570758118Wow, you 100% called it. The First City is, by far, the worst mission I have played in this game so far. What the actual fuck, devs.
>>570757576Malice is busy all the time running Ash Legion and has to be ruthlessly disciplined and cautious. I, her fastidious msura attache who was brought in to provide critical non-charr non-legion insight and collation, am therefore the only person in Tyria who knows her unguarded cuddlebug big spoon side. Almorra can also turn my pelvis to fine powder any time she wants.
>>570759962>femcharr e v e r getting with msuraMcharr / Femsura? Yeah that's a party. Femcharr / Femsura? Hell I'll even give you that since they'd be cute together. Mcharr / Msura too man fuck it, but that pairing doesn't happen. We're talking Mnorn / anything but their hand coupling numbers here
>>570759461Not only is the gameplay shit, they try to force us to care about Taimi by having her raped by Joko and then she keeps throwing stupid jokes on how she's so good she created the perfect death machine.I wonder what's the writer hiring process at Anet, goddamnit.
>>570761057jessica price got fired lmao
>>570755094Don't panic. Most of the raids can be done with 5 players and I'm not being hyperbolic. Speedrun trannies have given the mode such a bad reputation.
It finally clicked. I kinda understand what I'm doing now and I have a decent build. Really changes the game when your build isn't random shit but actually works together somewhat.
>>570761057>>570762402>look it up>holy fucking shit>LWS4 was so bad it dumpstered the writing team responsible for itlollmao
>>570762402As if it got any better after LWS4.
>>570761057I looked up other people playing it, and now I feel a lot better, at least about my performance. Even though I complained, I only got downed a couple times and never a full death. So many videos have people dying over and over, even people with a party helping them, insane.
>>570755056playing ele and warrior, I know that theres a ton of ways to get ascended but I havent got that far yet
why does condi warrior do so much damage wtf like a god damn truck hit me
>>570768185Because Warrior doesn't have much BS gimmicks besides having overtuned damage and being able to spam hard CCANet has no idea how to balance them so they just tack on shitloads of damage modifiers and passive defense
>>570768001You can get a dagger and pistol from Warrior, sword and hammer for free for Ele. Those are both pretty good between those classes. The PoF specialization collections are pretty easy, some of the events you need to do for EoD can be tedious/need a group for
Where can I find a MCharr Guardian in shining armor to protect me while I (also MCharr) gather blueberries in the forest and let me suck his cock afterwards... FUCK
>>570766139jessica price actually got fired because a fan who genuinely liked her work asked her a simple question about said work on twitter and she blew up at him, going all in on how m*les are scum and should all just die for the crime of existing. One other male dev from og gw1 days backed her up, saying she was in the right to shut down harmful questions from fans (it wasn't harmful at all) and he got sacked to.was a big thing, was funny, and kind of killed anet communications with the public for like three years.
>>570770089why charr guardians always have smol head?
>>570770767They can't spec points out of strength, so they move intelligence to wisdom
>>570770273Went to read up on the incident. God she was a complete bitch.
>>570712436That's what I've been doing, my ping is shit anyway so I can rarely tag things with damage, so I went heal/boonslut and still it was like 6-8 hours of following a tag around for 3 avenger emblems. 28 more, jfc.. I guess I have an extra conquerer I can break down for 5? shit conversion rate..
>>570770273is that the thing that made them take out the yawn idle or was that a different kerfuffle
>>570775286Same person, different thing, I believe. The idle animation was removed because she didn't like FHD player characters yawning during her masterful and emotion filled cutscenes.
>>570775561Good. Games are made for developers enjoyment, not the players paying and playing.
>>570775561yeah i saw it firsthand, it was greatohhh my lesbian lover died *yawn*to me this will always be the image of the stupidity of anet. they couldn't figure out a simple programmatic way to disable idles during a cutscene, so they just removed the whole thing (except they did it in such a cheap easy way that mod authors were able to bring it back by editing like one byte)it's like.. i'm sure there's some old timey expression here.. cows in the kitchen or something? when "content designers" are the only ones who have a say anymore and actual programmers have fucked off (or more likely been fired once their release contract was complete)
>>570775820Truly spoken, fellow irrelevant random tyrian living in the shadow of the great Destiny's Edge. We should all be thankful we get to inhabit the same world as these mighty fanfic heroes.
>>570775845It's really funny that someone once got away with convincing ArenaNet project leads that the game would have such good visual readability that it was a good idea to make the entire UI impossible to change or alter in any way for decades to come.
>>570775942Imagine if it was just the default guild for if you were going through the story guildless, but if you weren't it actually incorporated your guild and your rank into the story. And like, during big events they'd talk about getting all the guilds together for a massive strike on whatever, and they could even call those battles like, a guild war, or something.
>>570716876I know this image was made by some chud, because they need to create a strawman that doesn't exist to get a win, but honestly this kinda owns. Like, this is a vibe, going out in this would low key kinda rule.
>>570776727Sounds like a lot of extra work. Why do you want the developers to do their job and suffer? You are a very cruel heartless gamer, as expected, +20min of unskippable bear dialog added to next patch
>>570777217I actually find the slow kodan talk soothing and relaxing, especially compared to the grating invessant drivel from Taimi et. al.
>>570775286>>570775561It was a completely different thing (LW S2), Jessica Price didn't even work for Anet yet when it happened. It was a player complaint on the official forums that prompted the removal

>>570713545As much as I love stylized art I hope this is basically the starter area, so akin to Grove/Verdant Den and it gets grittier closer to the concept art as time goes on.
>>570783609Even better, with Living World 3.0 you will witness the death of Orr in real time as the gods drop one by one. Enjoy the pretty views while you can.
>>570783829That sounds awesome will be cool to see how they pull things off. I'm most excited for those early days at the beginning, for new MMOs it's just a crazy experience. GW2s early days with everyone running around doing events together in the open world was so enjoyable.

So what I’m reading from this thread is that Jessica Price is a retarded man hating whore that sucked and fucked her way into gaming?
>>570786547Yup. Apparently she was only at anet for a year.
>>570786875The guy that defended her ugly ass definitely got a blowjob, right? I mean why else be such a cuckold
>>570787057lol no, white knights never get to see even a naked ankle

>>570788136Ascalon
should I stick to my ascalonian from prophecies or just reroll a new character for each expansion
>>570788819If you want achivos from each expansion's 'turtorial' zone you have to make a new one each time iirc. But you can do it later at any time anyway, keep playing current one for now, you get new abilities. Nightfall is the worst starting location and takes ages to 100%, Factions is fast paced
>>570788819You have to regear and recapture skills if you roll a different character
>>570789213okayMonk for propheciesAssassin for FactionsDervish for Nightfallthe dead boomer professions I will roll
>>570788136Ascalonian, even the developers betray themselves by shoving all their "white people" opinions onto them which makes them the based and correct choice by default.>>570788205Greetings, fellow Ascalonian felid. I am one of you.
I hope that leak about GW3 mistbound is true and Ascalon is a faction
the worldbuilding/writing so far is putrid but im playingwhat should i grind out right now that is fomo/limited timei see there's the dragon bash and ive been grinding that
>>570789930There's some cool skins from the various vendors that you might light, weapons and armor. Maybe there's something there you might like. The main appeal for someone new like you is to do the festival annual achievement so you can get easy astral acclaim
>>570789930Get what you like from current events. You don't need to milk every limited event for profit or progression, like it's a gacha
>Warrior>Ranger>Elementalist>Necromancer>MesmerWhich iconic professions will make it into GW3?
>>570790757I know Guardian, Thief, and Revenant won't exist
>>570790757They will be reinvented as proto professions with different names. Like precursors to 1&2 lineup.
>>570790906Thief can definitely exist because the profession lore is literally just "a sneaky guy who steals"
>>570790159>do the festival annual achievementif its this, i already got it >astral acclaim don't know what that is or how to get it or where to use it
>>570790757Warrior for BalthazarMonk is coming back for DwaynaRanger for MelandruMesmer for LyssaNecromancer for GrenthProfession that fits AbaddonDragonmancer Profession (precursor to elementalist, wear medium armor and their profession got raped into human god worship later)
>>570791314It's concept will exist, Thief branched off of Assassin from GW1 but Thief in itself won't exist>>570791338Nice, I forgot that the wizard vault might not be unlocked for you since it might require you having SoTO now that I think about it. It's the icon next to the Black Lion Trading Post
>>570791508it says it unlocks at level 80. i literally just started playing. did i just waste currency by doing it before unlocking that?
gw3 combat/skill system is going to be so amazingly shitty to appeal to the destiny crowd
>>570789664This will be the preferred fashion in GW3 for me.
>>570791796It should remain there for you to retroactively claim when you max level, but I think the event will end before you can hit 80. Maybe you can hit 80 in 7 days before this event ends? I wouldn't worry about it too much though, astral acclaim is pretty plentiful
>>570790906Only Guardian and Revenant. There's no reason Thief can't exist.However, I'd give it like 67-33 odds that they don't go professions/classes in the GW1/GW2 sense, and they instead invent some system based on choosing both your weapons and your patron god and then your "profession" is the combination of both. And that would allow them to have Guardians without calling them Guardians, because it's just a combination of Greatsword + Dwayna.If they do have traditional professions, then I think Warrior, Ranger, Mesmer, and Necromancer are 100% locked-in. Elementalist is like 90% in but they might do something weird since specific gods are associated with specific elements and the other classes are mostly 1:1 with gods.Monk is in if the game winds up being focused on small-scale group play with well-defined roles, and it's out if if's a roleless action game.Thief is in the game UNLESS they feel obligated to stick with only 6 classes and they keep both Monk and Ele, in which case it gets the boot for not being a classic GW1 profession
I need to stop being lazy and unlock the roller beetle on my alt account

Do Orchid Blossoms have a strict 24 hour respawn timer?
>>570792038I have a feeling the field/burst systems and buffs and debuffs will be evolving into a more primer/combo type system that effects the battles differently. With momentum and movement obviously playing a huge part as well.

It's been 1.5months since the last time, but I just saw a holosmith ingame
is he right?
>>570803328yeah
>>570803328ESO is trying.
>>570789824was that one of the "leaks" that mentioned pvp? lmao
>>570804997There's supposedly 3 factions
>>570805161There's supposedly 0 mentions of PVP in GW3 job postings ever. And by supposedly I mean actually. I'll bet 500 gold that GW3 has no PVP. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1w5QRPDkD51K2vuI56mbflkfCFP67Nwt6vRRcunOME54/edit?gid=0#gid=0Also everything they've given us about the story is about how the players are very specifically part of the Vael Wardens or whatever the guild is called, the core stroy of the game is about us in this specific faction.
>>570805504I'm referring to the mistbound post, I haven't tracked the job postings in any capacity
>>570803328modern GW2 hasn't caught up to itself desu
How active is gw2? Oce fella here looking to try it out, maybe join a guild or something.
>>570806234More than active enough. The only thing I haven't found people for is old dungeons.
>>570806234For NA you'll always find people to do map metas(world bosses and events) together without much issue with a few exceptions since those maps aren't popular no matter what time of day. There's like a 4 hour period where it's late for West coast and early for East coast so finding a group to do instanced group content can be slower than usual to fill up since only degenerates are awake. And like that anon said dungeon content is abandoned since Anet shifted the focus for 5 man content to a content called Fractals which replaced them, Fractals are like Mythic+ if you are familiar with WoW
>>570806234hi, Anonymous :)
Gee golly willikers, are you guys ready to play as the heckin vaelwardens? They have no talent left to actually create a story that requires complexity, so they'll skip letting you play in the actual Guild Wars and instead play as outsiders in the forest.It is funny watching ArenaNet chase after the Destiny/Fortnite money, with such a fickle audience. We've already seen Highguard and Marathon fail.
>>570792038Why do we pretend that GW2 wasn't already consolefied by MMO standards? The maximum number of bootans you can have at one time to roll your face over is 15 and that's including having the contextual action available.

as i age into my sixties, i realize complexity is overrated. i just want to have a good time.
>>570817194>complexity is overratedtrue and factual. very very few people actually want complexity. the vast majority of players don't desire complexity and don't actually want difficult to pilot classes.
>>570807313>>570816995GW1 has even less skills available at any time and can be played on a fucking phone because it's so simple to controlbuild craft is what determines complexity and not the number of buttons you have to press (which GW2 has more of than GW1 on literally any given profession)

Wait I haven't thought about this yet, but GW2 being thousands of years in the past means we'll 100% get dwarves, right?
>>570821643GW3 EXPANSIONS CONFIRMED
>>570821643Chatgpt, summarize this please
>>570822193they already said orr won't be the only location, which would imply expansions just like gw1 and 2 adding new places
>>570822306honestly feels like it was written by ai alreadyespecially this bit:`Guild Wars 3 will be a buy-to-play game at release. There will be no subscription fee. That model matters because it puts players in control. Our goal is for players to feel like their time in the game is something they choose, not something they owe. `"that model matters" just sets off my aidar
>>570822306Here’s a clean, clear summary of the page — no filler, no fluff — just the core ideas.ArenaNet says Guild Wars 3 is built around player freedom, co‑op without pressure, and deep buildcraft that encourages experimentation. Combat aims to stay fast, readable, and skill‑based without overwhelming players. The world will be dynamic and reactive, shaped by player actions, while the game overall is designed to respect your time and avoid grind.
>>570822529I think your gaydar might be broken
>>570822306Boring buzzwords, blah blah, no subscription, redefine genre, move genre forward, still fucking vague on gameplay, "it doesn’t try to replicate the large-scale gameplay pillars that so uniquely define Guild Wars 2", yall niggers about to be playing Zoomer slop soon.
>>570822659this isnt geepeetee
>>570822529i like buy to play because it does remove that nagging feeling of having to maximize playtime like a degenerate but fuck i hate how intrusive cash shop bullshit is...that said even sub based mmos can't guarantee no cash shop these days
>>570822684Gaydar definitely broken. I've hit on more straight guys in the last six years than I'd like to admit.
>>570822193I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS
>>570821643>no pay to win>that remains true in guild wars 2 to this day>look inside>top meta is all elite specs>have to pay to play elite specshuh
>>570821685as long as they lived hundreds of years, then die out between gw1-2, there will probably be dwarves in gw3. maybe in an expansion or mini expac that doesn't cost a fortune and possibly just free (like gw1 did with the forge and stone summit, small map with repeatable content, nonstop boss farm)...same thing i think like >>570790757said, necro may be an expac class, gradually introducing corpse raising mechanics; grenth bestowing those type of skills for later content, such as the fall of orr and all the undeads that infest gw2.
>>570821643>written like it's power point for a board meeting
>>570821643it's pretty much just what they've already said during summer games fest press, no new info at all
>>570822421they could have meant something stupid like living world again
>>570823145if expansions are considered pay to win then every game has pay 2 win mechanics
>>570821685they will 100% be in the game, but as a playable race I'm not suremaybe they'll do a Shiverpeaks expansion and let us play as them

Is this still correct?
>>570830883the profitability of salvaging is a lot less now because the market was slightly flooded and never fully recovered. If you don't have all the gem store salvagers and a lot of account luck, selling unids on the TP directly will be better and also less of a pain.
doomers roped
>>570830883I usually mystic forge my rares to roll for exotics but I don't know if that's a good idea.
>>570832859what does that even mean in the current year? there will be absolutely no paying for mechanical advantage, convenience, or time saving? what about social advantages? purely a buy-to-play experience with no persistent monetization?
>>570830883Most exotics I just silver-fed/mystic as well. There's a formula based on the chance of salvaging ectos from exotics and how much it's going for in the AH.
>>570833362it will have identical monetization as GW2
>>570834074in the strictest sense, buying gold with gems, and utility things like salvagers and gathering tools, is pay2win

Remember if you can spend 100,000 hours grinding for an advantage that's easily purchasable it's technically not p2w for some reason!
>>570832181What's "a lot" of magic find?
>>570835331but you cant grind for the broken op expacks """elites""" and weapons masteries
>>570835331are XP boosters in video games pay 2 winyes or no.

>>570835619t. unemployed
You guys can't afford to spend 5 eurodollars on some gemmies every now and again?
so you admited it's not p2w gotcha
>>570835447if you aren't close to the cap then you don't have enough
>>570835454ANet at its finest, attach something really OP to an mediocre expansion because they know their most rabid fans will say you're paying for the expansions content and not for the specs.
GW2 is P2W because new maps are locked behind paid expansions and having fun in winning
>>57083518340 minutes that that dude spam skirmisher shot teleport left right nonstop never die hp go down max to 2% then somehow can evade anything ad teleport so far and fast that OC and reseteven the zerg is ignoring him cuz no one can do shit
>>570832859ok so does that mean people can't sell gems for gold?
>>570835612yes
It's not worth doing the Holo Stampede 10 times a day for the daily, is it? That seems tedious and time intensive as hell.
>>570838818its 3 hours, are you really going to spend 3 hours for a daily
>>570838408is League of Legends pay 2 win then?
Would it be faster to grind masteries and currencies or just buy the pale branch from the TP?
>>570839007I was just surprised that it's even an option. "hey do this 10 times for 10 coffers".Also interesting 4chins bug: I got "captcha expired" every time I clicked on "get Captcha" lmao. Like instantly it just goes to the 30sec waiting time.
>>570839091yes
>>570838818I didn't do it a single timeI'll do the other annual cheevos instead
>>570840565then you're retarded
>>570839091League literally sells heroes that are better than other heroes. If something is meta, and you don't have it, or it's not in rotation, you're fucked. Pay to win.
>>570840696funny because vast majority of current meta champs have been released several years ago and the prices have drastically been reduced over the years that any new player just gets champs for fucking free
>>570835612You are arguing with a schizo, but also XP boosters being p2w rely on context of a videogame.>gw2, wow, xiv, any other western casual mmono. who cares about xp, it's nothing but soft timegating, you're not truly winning anything if you level up slightly faster>old pvp mmos, korean slop and other games where leveling takes years and it has exp penalties on deathyes it is p2w because you can recover from death faster, higher level means you get to rape your enemies and control profitable farming spots.>>570839091I have not played LoL in a decade, but back when they still had runes and rune pages it was p2w, or at least pay 4 advantage, since you had an edge if you had runes and rune pages for specific heroes and roles.
>>570840880Prices have been drastically reduced because they have so many fucking champs. Over a decade ago, someone already did the math that if you wanted to own every champ, you'd have to play non-stop wins only for well over a year. The funny thing is: Riot could absolutely afford to give all champs for free, and focus on cosmetics for monetization. Riot could absolutely just use real dollars, instead of psychologically manipulative fun-bucks, that come in uneven packages that don't match the prices, as to hide the true cost of any single item. But every time you bring it up, league fanboys go: "Noooo, we like non-consential cock in the ass! It's actually good for some bizarre reason! Actually everyone else does it too!!!" I don't usually do the "my game vs your game" flamewar bullshit, I don't believe snoys or nintendrones is something that "really" exists, but jesus fucking christ LoL players are the most cucked beings in the universe, defend their own game ripping them off because they can't let anyone be critical of the game or riot in any way.
>>570840642cope
Anet is already treading on thin ice by saying stuff like GW3 won't have FOMO and it won't be P2WI guarantee by the time the game launches there will be a lot of drama about what they've said
silverwastes meta is still my favorite netflix and chill spot
>>570842910I'd suck anyones dick if they bring out a modern online game without FOMO mechanics. But literally how? Even the gem shop cosmetic only items being on sale every now and then is technically "fomo".
>>570842910what anet says is irrelevant, there will be a bunch of drama anyways from people who have never, and will never touch any of the games in the franchise.dragons dogma 2 had this issue because you could buy a few totally useless, easily obtainable items for real life dollar bills.
>>570842910Exactly, they are trying to "get ahead of the story"Don't worry guys it's an MMO...................liteDon't worry guys it isn't P2W.....................much
>>570843569that shit was p2w and had no place in an rpg
>>570842910>and it won't be P2WHow's that thin ice, this isn't any different from how they're handling GW2 (no, our local retard arguing otherwise doesn't mattet).
>>570842910You niggers love to imagine problems to get mad at
>>570843704it was the equivalent of being able to buy 1 (one) escape rope or healing item in a pokemon game for real money. literally irrelevant.
>>570843569To be fair, it does leave a sour taste in your mouth when regular consumables are purchasable for real money. Even if it's "not that bad" in a given game, it always feels like "testing the waters". How many players will accept this? How many will still buy the game? And how many of them will actually buy the consumables even if you technically could get them in-game? So even if it's not literally the worst, most egregious way they could have done it, but instead actually the most harmless form of this concept, it is STILL a horrible precedent to set. Look at battle passes. We didn't complain enough when those started, and now every game has a fucking premium battle pass bullshit thing, where you need to PAY and YOU DON'T EVEN FUCKING GET _ANYTHING_ you pay for the PRIVILEGE of being ALLOWED to earn rewards! Oh you didn't get the rewards? Too bad, seasons over, buy the next one chump! You can't just let them start doing horrendous shit, because it's the least bad version of it. Because it WILL lead to worse versions.
>>570843926normalfags aren't as forgiving about weird shit like having to pay for basic qol like inventory slots and bank storagethis is important because anet is making a game for the console crowd not the indoctrinated MMO crowd
doing the obscure expansion andwhy does the mursaat die?i guess the commander just kinda forgot they had a magic orb thingy they've been using to cleanse corruption this whole expansionactually, why did they give it to the commander in the first place? we just showed up out of nowhere and barged into their thing
>>570842910>OY VEY WHY ARE THEY MAKING ME BUY GW3?!
>>570843926p2w is when developers don't spend a decade of their lives working full-time for the $50 I paid them onceFOMO is when time existsthe developers lied when they said I could "play my way" and then made something that was too hard for me to beat, even though it wasn't this game's developers that used that phrase
>downed>enemy die i rally>chopping other dude while full hp>istadowned>diemfw i got illusion of life after rally cuz skill lag or some shit
>>570844429I hate how shooters put guns inside of battlepasses now, even if they're free you still have this stupid limited time window to grind them out
>>570844429you're talking about it as if it was horse armor, or deadspace 3's shit where it is the very beginning, where monetizing items in games was a new and novel concept. the company behind the game isn't some new wet behind the ears competitor. it's capcom. five hundred dollars of microtransactions in monster hunter capcom. three hundred and fourty two dollars of dlc in street fighter 6 capcom.because of that it felt like a "the higher ups are demanding microtransactions in the game. if we don't put them in we will either be replaced or the game will never release." scenario where they put them in almost in an act of malicious compliance.it wasn't even a online storefront shoved into the game. they were sold as "dlc packages" which means they are one and done.
>>570843251I don't see them pulling it off considering they love doing festivals and such to fill out the calendar
FOMO sucks balls only because companies use it to keep you playing lest you miss an item you might want so you are most likely to spend more money. But 99% of the shit anet sells on the gemstore rotate out every month or so and you can even go on the forums to request specific items return in a few cycles. So I can't really take the GW2 has FOMO argument seriously. Not even "technically FOMO" because you are not really missing out on anything.
why did none of you tell me i should go for evoker if i hated switching elements? could've saved me so much time trying to find a class. fuck you.

Any suggestions on a one size fits all class while I try to figure out what is what? I plan on joining a guild and catching up in all forms of content even pvp/wvw. I was curious about rangers how are they now I am used to them just sitting in longbow and sucking
>>570866832Maybe guardian if you want a one size fits all class?Ranger is pretty good overall, there are still bear bowers but Engineer has stolen that throne away from them since their most popular build is Rifle Mechanist which happens to be actually good
>two handed melee asuraLike as clubs?
Oh boy oh boy, I can't wait to get my Tequatl Hoard today!
>>570869238Club Canach.
>>570869238>mcharr looking at BHC
>>570870068Club Canach with Taimi. Got it.
>>570866707Two hands on the femsura like she's a fleshlight.Asura and Charr players tend to be the freaks in my experience. I'm sure I could find a pair that would be into it.
>>570870864As long as it potentially ends with Taimi as a mute, I'm all for it.
were they making fun of warcraft pauldrons with this lol
>>570803328If he's specifically talking about the social integrity of the game, I believe he's right for the most part. There's more interaction through commander tags alone socially than most other games have in their entire endgame.
>>570875938>There's more interaction through commander tags alone socially than most other games have in their entire endgame.>"We are going to fail this meta unless we get more tags!">*literally 30+ commander mentor/tags*>minutes later>"What's going on?">"Meta"
>>570876353I love when this shit happens
>>570876943To this day even when this happens I haven't seen an event fail to proc or complete. Except when it's 1-2 people doing that one torch throwing quest in the living story area between HoT and PoF. Sometimes I just go over there and wait for one or two people to start doing it and help them out.
Which armor class is best for charr, visually speaking?
>>570866832longbow sucks. ranger sucks if you try to force bearbow upon it. it is pretty good with swords, greatswords, hammers, maces, and axes.every class can do everything but ranger kind of sucks at healing and buffing allies. guardian is pretty strong in every role and has things that go from "fire spewing condi dps/healer/support" and "wannabe assassin that teleports" to "summoning weapons of light and healing with auras" and "trapper with an actually decent longbow". the main caveat with guardian is that it has very low health and survives via things like aegis (blocking attacks) rather than sheer durability or regen.
>>570878534>ranger kind of sucks at healing and buffing alliesSupport Druid exists
>>570878741it's worse than every other healer except maybe revenant and mechanist though isn't it?
>>570878301Naked
>>570879027It's one of the most straight up raw healers in the game, you don't even have to use staff anymore because of how much healing you output. Boons were never an issue for Druid as well so I'm not sure why you think it sucks at buffing allies. The free search and rescue is also super comfy, even to the point that I get annoyed playing other healers at times. Revenant also got a giant boost in the support aspect with Conduit since you can spam the tablet for stability and CC which support Herald was lacking>>570878301Heavy looks best in my opinion
>>570879656trueno stretched textures
>>570879798huh, i see. now that i think about it, ranger has one of the strongest revive utilities still with the double spirit slam too, right?
>>570880036Oh, there's gonna be some stretched textures when I'm done.
>>570880414I never really brought that double spirit slam for pve, but yeah it's pretty damn useful in wvw
>>570848679>very tall, very palei went short and brown instead
>>570880606i mean, its double stuns from lightning spirit
>>570880839And double rezzes
>>570880975thats not very useful in pve, but what else are you going to use, ranger elites sucks
>>570880574mcharr TWINK
>>570881291Glyph of Stars for PvE
>>570880747
>>570880747fun fact: the shortest norn is a bit taller than the tallest human.
>>570883317thanks for the tipi think i want to go back and remake because the skin looks a little too orange in gameplay compared to charcreation and she's a little too small for my liking compared to every other npc i want to be able to see the armor without squinting
GW2 sisters, is it true that GW3 won't be a MMORPG?I'm scared.
>>570881490small_dom_big_sub best tag
>>570884773yes and that's a good thing
>>570884773hw1 wasn't an mmorpg and it is probably the 14th best game of all time
>>570884975How many games have you played, 14? I mean, I like GW1, but 14th? ANet is claiming to evolve the genre while doing some hybrid that will probably make the franchise go from being a great MMORPG to a mediocre multiplayer lobby game.
>>570822659>co‑op without pressure,YESSS MORE SINGLE PLAYER MMO>deep buildcraft that encourages experimentationOVERBALANCED CRAPOLA>The world will be dynamic and reactive, shaped by player actionsWOW NEVER HEARD THIS BULLSHIT BEFORE
>>570822659>respect your time and avoid grind.SELECT PRESET SPEC TO WINNO VERTICAL GROWTH
>>570822659>The world will be dynamic and reactive, shaped by player actionsReading this shit reminds me of how, in Asheron's Call (1999~), the nefarious in-game Shadow enemies abducted the actual player allegiance monarchs (guild leaders), locked them in a floating spire, and wouldn't release them until they agreed to choose which of their human cities would be destroyed. So they chose the biggest most popular hub town, and the devs literally blew it off the map and replaced it with a smoking crater, teleporting any logged-off players there a mile into the sky so they'd die on login too.Anet's interpretation of "shaped by player actions" is like.. if you do the renown heart, the renown heart person says "Hello again Wayfinder!"
>>570885842they tried to do the shaped by player action thing and it turned out terrible
>>570885972It's anathema to their obsessive control mentality and fanficcy writing. You know what I got excited for? That one little mini event they did around the leyline entity(I think, or it just used the same graphics) where at the end of the chain you'd very briefly turn hostile to other players in open world PVE maps. I thought it was going to be a prelude to actual open world faction combat and consequences for ingame decisions (silly me).
>>570885972Too many chuds playing GW2, they can't allow any possible bigotry to take place.
>>570885972>it turned out terriblewdym? The human prevailed and asserted superiority over the charr, preserving the right and natural order of things.
>>570885972they never made the abbadon fractal
>>570886360the charr was the based chudd standinwymym should never ruleanet had to literally falsify an election outcome lmao

>>570888104What did he do?
>>570888184Post the one with the meaty eyes
>>570885842Anet blew up LA twice and kept players in Vigil's Keep for like 2 weeks while LA was being "rebuit".Not to mention nightmare tower in the middle of Kessex.They did live reactive world, but it burnt out devs with non stop crunch and if you missed the event you missed it forever. Not very sustainable strategy for an MMO that supposed to be about horizontal progression and being able to come back any time you want.>>570886217>expecting open world PvP in a game that was explicitly built around cooperation and lack of competition between PvE players
member when they tried to do esports and it was shit?i member
>>570891743every company that has ever tried to force esports instead of letting it organically grow has ended up with shit.
>>570891650>Anet blew up LA twiceDon't give me that bullshit. It was PLANNED, scripted, and the new shitty disneyland theme park version was already ready to go. Nobody was inconvenienced or gave a shit in any way. Whereas in AC they gave players the choice, they could have picked any irrelevant town, but they specifically choice to inconvenience themselves by destroying the most popular hub, and it wasn't rebuilt for realtime years. It was a much more meaningful decision than Anet's dumbass "living world" nonsense.
>$33.80 for unbreakable gathering tools with pickable glyphsbit excessive innit
>>570893202yeah it is meant for fools or lazy people. you can instead just gems to gold, or farm gold yourself, and get the glyphs for a fraction of the price. a bag slot expansion also is more worthwhile in regards to the inventory space you'd save by having unbreakable tools.way more cost effective to just save up for the glyph you want and get a bag slot and fill it with tools.
>>570893541Sorry poorfag but not having to go through the humiliation ritual of buying a million faggy karma tools is worth it. Sorry that breaks your wagie lifestyle, do you need a gem store gift?
>>570893706i wasn't the one bitching about the price. i just know what the intended audiences are for the tools. no one intelligent actually buys them on the premise that they will pay themselves off.
>>570892812
>>570892812>Anet kidnaps characters of all big gw streamers>they have to decide which city to blow up>(you) and the rest of /gw2g/ shits blood for decade after the event because "muh ecelebs and trannies ruined muh game"You know what? I see the light. Anet should pull the AC and do it.
>>570894357>biggest and most active hub>nine mudhuts in a circleof course they could blow up towns and kidnap guild leaders, they had active population of mildly popular minecraft server.
>>570893541This is definitely correct, I'm lazy enough that I don't want to constantly bother with buying more tools and just want to be done with it.Anyone who buys this shit hoping it will pay off are doubly more retarded than the whales that just embrace the fact it's a money sink.
what do i do with all this random gear im getting from the dragon bash chestsshould i be saving the chests to open for later
>>570895598salvage what you can, vendor/trash what you can't
>>570895801is there a specific salvage kit i should be usingand i ask if i should wait because im just noticing that all the gear is leveled so like, should i be waiting so i can get different stuff from salvaging higher level or.... idk how this workswhich is why im asking :)
i cant decide between two classes engi and thief. Could I have some help on which to stick with?
>>570895926unless you have salvage-o-matics its usually>black lion/mystic salvage kit for rares>basic for everything else
>>570895926The cheapest while you're leveling>>570896035Engineer so you can become the 3rd Holosmith to grace this thread
Newfag Elementalist here. I'm about to afford ascended gear from the Wizard coins. But I don't yet know about the stats. Do you go zerker, or celestial, or some secret third option?
WvW is nothing but thieves, necros, amalgams and evokers
>>570898067Depends 100% on your build and intended activity Zerker is good for straight power builds that don't depend on condition damageCelestial WAS the WvW king for most of GW2 but then Anet nerfed the fuck out of it specifically in WvWDon't listen to AI either way and look up builds
My cousin Mario Pizatti told me that the hall of monuments reward will be for a naked woman outfit in GW3 and she will scream “I NEED BWC!!!” When she takes damage
>>570896035If you like shooting guns, thiefIf you like clicking on the ground, engineer
>>570899245Problem is: I'm too noob to know what build I really want. All I know is: I wanna do all the PvE shit. First I gotta do the whole story Journal, on the way I'm gonna unlock my elite specs, and after that I wanna do Fractals, I wanna do Raiding, I wanna Metas and whatever else endgame PvE activity there is. But I have no Idea which build to play for these. Now, if it was any other MMO, I could just relax and not worry about it, do one thing after the other, but since GW2 has this horizontal progression thing, I gotta already worry about the type of gear I'm getting, because it's kinda gonna be "forever gear". And I gotta know what stats to go for, despite not knowing what build is gonna be right for me.
>>570898991WvW roaming has always been broken ass tier garbageYou either play the flavor of the month or join a zergdeviating from either means getting vaporized and giving someone a bag
>>570900623Good old decision paralysis There is no good answer, sadly. Just try to find a build you think you can stand.
>>570898067Generally in a pve group setting you will always have a healer to wipe your ass, so you can just go full damage with Berserkers. If your main focus is going to be open world and enjoying the story then I will suggest celestial instead. You can stat swap your ascended gear anytime with the mystic forge so long as you have the respective materials. Since you are a light armor with a low health pool I will suggest buying a Jade Bot Core:Tier 10, this will give you 2000 extra HP
>>570900623Celestial gear lets you yawn through almost all non-instanced PvE without ever worrying about dying especially on something like Tempest. You'll do a little bit less damage, but not that much less and it's very beginner friendly.
I should really stock up on materials for legendaries before they start adding HoM. I have a feeling that materials are going to be way more expensive in a few months, especially T6 and mystic coins. I almost just want to just convert all my gold into these.
>>570900858>Good old decision paralysisIt's a bitch, ain't it? >>570901304I have considered "hedging my bets" with getting celestial. Celestial seems to have a bit of everything, works for solo play, and I guess is also a sleeper condition build. So if I go celestial, I can probably keep doing solo living world and expansion stuff, while not totally gimping myself for group play. >>570901380Sounds right up my alley, actually.
>>570900623go cele its super good for ele
>>570896035-engi:>scrapperfast mfer with gyros>holosmithdo more damage the more you overheat>mechanistprobably the most retard-proof elite spec in the game if i'm not mistaken>amalgambecome the terminator-thief:>daredevil3 dodges and probably the most boring spec in the game (speaking as a thief main)>deadeye360 noscope>specterLARP as a necromancer>antiquaryrats
>>570901687The good thing about Celestial in particular on Elementalist is that most Ele weapons (well, the good ones anyway) tend to work well with both power and condi, so Cele's hybrid damage approach actually ends up working well. I'd say Ele is the poster profession for Celestial stats in general.Runes can be of your choice whatever you want to focus on, but if you want to just double down on being a hybrid you can use Divinity runes.
>>570896035amalgam is my favorite spec rnI don't care for thief
So is celestial shit in wvw now?
>>570902228either go full dmg or minstrel healsissy
>>570902228It's fine in WvW just nowhere near as oppressive as it used to be.That said, you're still probably better off going with another stat combo in WvW if you know what you're doing.
Where do all the ERPs hang out these days?
now I have decision paralysis for which wvw team to join
>>570903689you can look at the current team point standings in the wikii forget if spoilers work on vg
>>570903689Check wvw.gg and pick something in T1 if you want maximum activityAlternatively stop being a fag and just choose whichever one sounds coolest to you.
Anons, I got 5 80 boosters from the expansions, what's the best class for:>Fractals>Raids>WvW (maybe)?
>>570904874Heal Druid for all 3, but turn off the Alacrity trait in WvW for more healing
>>570904874Firebrand
if anet isn't doing wvw in gw3 then they probably won't do pvp either
best ele spec I will have the most fun with?
>>570896035Thief is the edgy teen and gamer dad class, its resource system means spamming one skill over and over. Engi on the other hand is very skillful and one of, if not the most flexible class.
>>570908874Conjuration Elementalist during the dungeon days
>>570910961Thief is only spammy in endgame PvE. The initiative system is really fucking fun in PvP where it creates a very satisfying dynamic combat pace where the power of your burst is directly proportional to how long your downtime is afterwards, and you really need to use all your skills to their fullest to get results.

Newfag here, I had some of those bottom right reward chests, but then my client crashed and on logging back in they were not there any more. What happened there, are they auto-opened in my inventory or something?
>>570920259probably
bear helm has revitalized my urge to play my Norn Warrior.
>>570901415I doubt legendaries are going to have much to do with the hall of monuments. I'm pretty sure HoM is basically just going to be a series of achievements with specific cosmetic rewards that will be new to GW2 but also be in GW3. It seems like people think it's going to be some system to bring all your cosmetic bullshit forward to GW3 which doesn't really make sense in a few different ways. For one they're not going to just plop crappy GW2 looking weapons and armors into their fancy new fangled engine, and they're certainly not going to remake every single armor and weapon from GW2 for GW3. I think it's probably best to not do any "preparation" for HoM since most of it will probably be new achievements being added starting with its release.
>>570923478i think he meant that you will have some hom points if you have some legendaries unlockedit's possible
>>570923478What it "should" be is something like the "Return To" achievements without having to re-do the whole story.What I expect is a shit ass grindfest encouraging swiping stretched out to last year of no content before they kill the dev team for good.
>return to>without having to return to
>>570924219There's more than just the shitty instanced story journal.
Return to Chalice of Tears:Complete the Chalice of Tears jumping puzzle 10 times.
Return to Monke: Fuck 50 Grawl
>>570925361>teleports to friendhehnothing personnel
>>570924048I mean, maybe. I kinda doubt it personally. At best you still risk holding the bag if you grind and buy a bunch of legendary mats and they end up not being needed so the price plummets. From how they described it, it's in my opinion most likely going to be a slightly more involved Seasons of the Dragons with the Return To achievements.
>>570926196Oops, looks like you didn't hit all of the checkpoints in the JP, sorry, but you can't open the chest and get credit.

>>570930996I hope our dragon race looks more fuckable than theirs
>>570930349never ever
>>570901415>>570923478Nta but I think having points for legendaries is entire possible, nay even likely. Remember HoM 1: You get points for piss easy stuff like, linking your accounts, beating the campaign, having a rare and a unique mini, Have 5 titles. These are hard to NOT have if you have played Guild Wars 1 for 2 weeks. But then there's also points for the absolute most degenerate grinds in the entire fucking game that take literal months to get. The way they balanced this, was by stopping skin rewards at 30, and only giving titles for further milestones, making it essentially a "normie players can get all the actual rewards, hardcore nerds can get the bragging rights". So that makes it very likely to me, that GW2 HoM will give points for legendary items.

this game needs a rotating bonus for old areas. like 100% magic find increase for lws3 one week, 4 the next week, etc.

>>570949436GW1 has weekly bonuses and they're pretty goodmake a post on the core game suggestion forum
>>570950038I'd be running dungeons weekly if they had a proper queue. I'm not idling outside a dungeon with a listing in LFG in 2026. Fuck of with that.Dungeons in all future MMOs should be open world but very challenging to solo. A place a solo player who is overgeared or very skilled can survive, but where people naturally will want to group. And because it's open world, you can go solo, explore the easier sections alone, and organically meet people to team up with on the way.You and 1 or more randos you're not even in a party with can team up spontaneously, help eachother out for as long as your goals align, then part ways.Tower of Nightmares on Open Mode is actually the perfect example. It's fun as fuck to be grinding through it solo, link up with another player to improve your odds, then by the end of it 5+ clusters of players come together to beat the final bosses and clear the final floors.You start out struggling to clear floor 1, push through floor 2 with someone you just met, clear floor 3 with a group of 5+, and then by the final bosses you've got 15 people, none of them in a party, all doing their own thing. Glorious.

>>570950759Aion had some cool open world dungeon areas like that, it was a pain to solo because mobs often came in packs of 2 or 3 so pretty much everyone grouped up to do that content. Sometimes you'd find other groups doing the same content and even with multiple groups it was still possible for shit to hit the fan if someone did a bad pull or fucked up their CCs.

It's nice seeing an influx of new players in the starter cities
Maybe GW3 balance will be better. Let's hope they do well enough to not make the mistake of separating skill balance between 3 different game modes.

>>570961710gaynet's problem is they try to micromanage balancing too much. they're afraid to just let be, it's insane seeing shit like "INCREASED COOLDOWN OF SKILL BY 0.001%" "CHANGE STACKS OF MIGHT FROM 3 TO 2" like they think this is all super game breaking stuff
>>570958569I'd not call those a dungeon but more of an "elite zone" since the concept of "dungeon" is a closed/instanced zone. I recall that zone with the Orc-like enemies where you'd see the Chieftain something as a boss where you needed at least 24 players to hope to beat. In GW2 we have the centaur zone at Lake Doric not as annoying or difficult but its kinda like that.

>>570964526wtf... is this real?
Which are the easiest 7 achievements for the Dragon Bash Experience?
>>570965952Betting on (all) moasSpamming dragon bash fireworks (the weaponskill versions)Spamming the hologram arena
>>570967804Oh weapon skill version? Where do I get that?
>>570965952They're all pretty easy.100 fireworks, the launchers around hoelbrak are free and respawn in real time, you also get consumable firework gizmos from event inventory chests that have 9 firework charges each.Moa race 5 times, takes 250 zhaitaffy if you don't want to gamble by betting on all five moas at a time(50 taffy per race)Smash 150 pinatas, there's 31 in hoelbrak and you'll have to reload the map to respawn themMount Race 15 times, if you wait for the race event and start the adventure at the same time, you can get credit for like 6 laps at a time.kill 300 minions, just do the arena a couple timesKill all 5 arena bosses, easiest oneEat 1000 zhaitaffy, self explanatoryGet silver medal in pinata adventure, that's 13 pinatas smacked during the adventure, this is hard if you don't know where to go, but after you figure that out it's brain dead easy.do 5 stampede events, just go to the map where a stampede if going to happen and kill holograms.
>>570959538that wvw shit have no fucking senseeles alone that down half squad and walk away full hpppl that crit 14k on full minstrel healerme with all the trait for damage full berserker scholar runes 25 bloodlust fullbuff from squad crit 2k on a thief alone that do 3.4k spamming skirmisher shotspam skill on necro that stand still 111 he do 8k/crit i do nothing no evade no 000 no block, literally nothing
>>570968318its the yellow fireworks item with red stripes i think. if you get 3 colored fireworks skills with three charges each those count i think
>>570942876>no 1k gold or 10 gw2 years expwe all start somewhere, if your only focus is the big rewards (with minimal effort) just do the minimal effort thing and get your 7/7 annual. that's all i care about anymore. just can't be assed to log in for (non-festival) dailies anymore for a whopping 7g a week. it would be nice to do the 5-daily festival weapon cache, but i just don't find it worth my time anymore.>afk heralds in dragon arenai played herald in DBA, but i pressed my buttons that do damage. i will never understand the laziness. it's not like the trash mobs give us loot. i get it if it's sandswept isles...but arena?
>>570967804>>570968447>>570968676Thanks anons. Got my cheevo.
>>570973614enjoy your head.
I like quickplay fractals. <3
>>570968607skilly issuey
>>570957558>no webmfake and gay and didn't happen and skill issue
>>570975264me too, honestly. I wish there was a reason to do them, ever.
>>570968607try aiming
>>570976350Are quickplay fractals a good place to start if you havent done any or are they just pointless for progression?
>>570978285Quickplay doesn't advence your personal fractal level. If you're fractal level 1, you could do 100 quickplay fractals and still be fractal level 1.They're pretty much just for practice and working toward the legendary quickplay fractal gloves and color lenses for said gloves(default color is purple).
>>570978285They're really good until you get the initial Legendary gloves, and then they're good if you have daily or weekly WV objectives that want you to complete Fractals (assuming you're not doing regular Fractals at the time).They're not POINTLESS to do past that point, because you do get the Fractal Dust stuff which you can trade in for the +5 Power/+9 Agony infusions and those are actually pretty valuable, but they're not really a substitute for regular Fractals in terms of rewards.But play for fun rather than rewards, so do them if you're having fun.
>>570978596That's sad. :(
will they upgrade the jackal next? i feel like it has always been the bottom tier mount and yet they've updated top tier mounts three times now
>>570981925skyscale upgrade next
>>570981925yeah, it's pretty fucking funny how they gave up adding jackal portals to new maps after sandswept isles.
>>570981925anet doesn't know what to do with the jackalthey've never known that to do with the jackal>>570982673honestly forgot jackal portals even existed
there is something in the water...help!
>>570978285They are literally designed for people who have never done fractals and don't know where to start.
>>570983412They should do some mastery that merges Jackal and Warclaw "features" so we can have the benefits of the warclaw without the god awful skins.
Thinking about trying Warrior. Is hammer fun on them?Yes, I know pic related is using Guardian's hammer skill Banish.
>>570989418Berserker and Spellbreaker can both use them, you take the Defense traitline instead of Discipline. Every time you CC you give yourself stability and a damage buff. It's also cool on support Paragon because of the amount of defiance damage you can do

BEARS SUCK GIVE ME CHARR BACK
charr penis > bear penis
>>570994403Maybe there's a roaming warband that made it to Orr back then... maybe they'll add us going to Ascalon and playable charr in an expansion...
>>570994403I've been autistic enough to justify Sylvari existing and being playable in GW3, you should do the same for Charr
i just want draenei
>>570995051wow's race variety frankly mogs every other mmo
>>570968447Is there any point to giving taffy to the dead fish dude? Why is he at every event begging for currency?
>>570991983Sorry anon, femcharrs are human property.
>>570996765>Is there any point to giving taffy to the dead fish dudei think its just one of those "we ran out of ideas and time/we dont give a shit anymore so here's a fake achievement where you just throw away a bunch of stuff into a void and you get 5 achievement points so completion autists will have to do it"
>>5709967655 Achievement points if you give him 1,000 taffy 5 times for a total of 5,000 taffy given netting you a grand total of 25 achievement points. That's it.
>>570996164>worgens>no tailThey may have variety but most of them are ass.
>>570982673Thats because lorewise jackal portals are an abbadon thing, so they only really make sense to be in the desert. I figure they'll bring them back when they finally decide to do a miniexpac in Dzlana or whenever we go back to the desert
