Guild Wars had a limited system vaguely similar to this. You could set certain gear slots to show up only in combat zones/towns/etc, for example. Your idea would be pretty cool for this game. I can't see anything of that magnitude happening, though, without some sort of overhaul or unless they make you use trans charges every swap or something, at which point the system would be rendered pointless.

Uh...no. If you don't want to play the game...dont play it.

In what ways? I can't see it being abused any more than mounts, and other things like skills, are already. As long as the second player can manually dismount (or other restrictions, such as being a party member), I don't see how it could be used to troll with either.

Also, seconding the auto-follow. I'm pretty sure Guild Wars had it and it was just another in a long list of minor QoL features that were inexplicably trashed.

The kana doesn't appear in the log, but I'm pretty sure it appears in the speech bubbles your character emits. It's strange the way they have these things set up.

I doubt it will happen given that it's a product they sell and that you could straight up buy an endless amount of one of the five-badge skins in WvW and convert them into charges.

That said, I wouldn't mind the ability to store one of those items as a a free application "charge" of the specific skin, just so they don't take up as much space.

That definitely needs some tweaking, but I think the eyes should be bigger overall across the board. Maybe not GW1 big, but at least big enough to be a more noticeable contribution to a look.

Yes. I loved that game and its community, the people I met, etc. a lot!

Maybe. I don't know how Guild Wars 2 would do it, since stuff like experience and gear are really easy to get, but FFXIV has a mentor system that gives bonuses to both mentor and mentee. Guild Wars 2 doesn't have a new player or mentor system like that though.

I don't understand why they didn't implement the disconnect timer, allowing you a few minutes to reconnect before wiping your progress.

I don't know. The exploration bonus for killing long-lived enemies is pretty cool. I don't know if I'd like random fodder evolving into swarms of champions or something in lowbie zones or zones where people are inclined to ignore mobs, lol.

Plus, it seems like that would negatively interact with player level scaling.

GW2 has one of the better wardrobe systems. You'll find that transmutation charges are a lot easier to get than it first appears.

I love that sound.

An option would be good. It was a pretty helpful feature for me in FFXIV to have specific channels give notifications.

What is there to disagree about ? Sure, there could be some guy with 100 accounts rolling in log in rewards gold, but are we really going to pretend that's any sort of widespread or serious "problem" or that it's somehow unfair to anybody?

*You can literally buy gold in this game.*

Delivered instantly and on demand!

There is no "unfair" way to obtain gold outside of like, cheating something. Everyone is presented with the same options.

We're talking about sub 20g, at current prices, per *month*. That's not a big deal. You want to replace that with 10 obsidian A MONTH? Come on.

Are you sitting on a huge hoard of Mystic Coins and miffed about their recent price decline? I can't imagine any other logically sound purpose for your proposal.

Ah, I see. Good to know.

Replace the most valuable item outside of laurels with items that most players are drowning in and have essentially zero value? .......Why?

The ascended materials and Laurels are also easily converted into gold too. You might as well replace everything with Piles of Bloodstone Dust.

Including Fractal Relics, Unbound Magic, HoT map currencies and dungeon tokens also completely invalidates your supposed stance of "reward players for playing", as one could simply sit on log in rewards and accumulate currencies that you would otherwise actually have to play specific game modes to acquire, whilst never touching that content.

They're called log in *rewards* and I am okay with them having tangible in-game value.

Mystic Coins are in a pretty good spot right now, I think, with their variety of uses and availability. 20 a month isn't a problem at all.

> I know that many players would be against a more fair system

This really feels like you're proclaiming that anybody who may disagree with your bizarre system hates fairness or something.

Tengu, I guess. I am pretty indifferent on whether or not they add a new race, but I remember hearing that they'd done a bit of work in Tengu at some point, so that seems the most logical.

I used to play World v. World the most, but I've gradually gotten back into PvE as I work towards some more specific goals.

As far as I'm aware, you can't unlock the collexion itself prior to finishing the story and the progress is not retroactively awarded for what you have done.

Should be able to reduce objectively obstructive visual elements without making my game look like garbage.

I hope she is restored or released. PoF revealed some pretty disturbing fates for a few GW1 characters.

The real crime is that all the shoes with non-kitten heels (edit: This is not censored, I do mean kitten heels) are ugly. Ugly heels. In Fashion Wars. Unacceptable!! Of course, the ancillary issue here is that heels lop off a few inches of our legs, and have no rigidity so they morph and bend in unfortunate ways. This is why my elementaliste runs around in huge stompy goth boots.

Just what I need. Hordes of 30 foot Norn or Charr covered in auras and particles on a gigantic neon griffon, also covered in particle effects, to obscure everything on my screen and implode my fps.

I think the character creator itself could use a few more options, such as the ability to save your appearance. I agree that we should have a few new default options, but I also really wish they would do some other things like make more hair unisex and, for example, add the syvlari women's body types to the human femme selection as I hate the body type selection for humans.

My char is 55 (scroll), in junk, and her attacks are scaling, but the raptor's tail swipe takes out 5 at a time. I need those HPs though. I finally just used raptor to travel, it was getting silly.

This is the main problem I've seen with mounts in lower level areas, especially with the masteries that improve engage attacks. I can one-shot swarms of mobs with engage skills, even ones that I can barely scratch when dismounted.
