> Edit: Since I’m already repeating myself, and I see that I’d likely have to do it again if this continues, I’m out. It’s highly unlikely that Anet is going to just give you those skins because you feel entitled to something fancier than what you have and that you should get them cheaper than those who haven’t crafted their legendary armor yet.
Ben did state this though in another forum. The PvP Legendary Armor is a lot work to craft. 3 separate league chest completions. Huge amount of ascended shards as well. Not to mention the clovers and Materials.

Yeah, I don’t like them. The heavy also seems to bug out sometimes showing the animations half open.

Not sure if it’s necessarily going to go away entirely. Your still going to have the idiots that still shame people that do moderately decent dps and still give people shit even when you win the fight without problems. The thing is the chat is all logged. If people start going crazy report em and leave the party.

Best looking Legendary Armor is up for interpretation and opinion. The Armor itself is riddled with bugs and the dyes are all off as well. Personally I find the skins ugly as all hell, which is again only opinion.

People complaining about the "elitists" should shut up and be thankful that they have someone to carry them through content. Because if you're doing 1k DPS on a DPS class with a decent support component, you're not going to be doing any better outsie.

Same with anomalies on Arkk, you could just kill the kitten anomaly which takes less than 5 seconds to be safe instead of being a greedy kitten and trying to skip every phase and remove every challenge possible from an encounter by trying to brute force it with burst DPS. Then things go wrong when they find out not every group can burst efficiently and they throw a tantrum when said group can still pull off mechanics cleanly for a kill with no wipes.

I remember when mirage was busted and people thought 13-14k DPS was ridiculously high, now they've overbuffed a bunch of power specs and now people are absurdly stupid about not bringing certain classes that would have passed muster back then because other classes now have more power creep.

> Well, you're right that there's **some** people that will be like that. For fractals i'll take anyone, really, and if it's going well, i'll happily carry those 1kdps guys. But if it isn't i'll start asking people below 10k DPS on ArcDPS if they can't do better. And depending on their response, a vote kick might follow.
> That's basically my benchmark for fractals, 10k DPS. Can't speak much for raids since i'm not a big expert on those since most of my guild mates left before those were a thing, and i think that's not the kind of content that's fun without a proper group. I've done several with pugs, and an allied guild, but then started having less time to play, and kinda stopped.

Then it's a hard struggle to get the game to a decent balance, which previously was only starting to form when they released the new set of elites.

> I literally never had this happen to me in Fractals, and rarely in Raids. In fractals, i can do well without the banner guy, and usually play with one or two other friends who help cover the "required" slots, which helps. But even when solo, and outside CM (where i'm more careful, and also there's less people willing to go), i get a group going in usually under 5 minutes.

No, just a point of reference of expectations of conduct for playing Gw2.
Incidents like this happen in PvP and players get a few days banned from the game, much like in the forums.

I don’t like the Envoy Armor set, so I would take the Mistforged Glorious Armor any day of the week.

Let’s be honest here, these changes were well in the works probably before episode 4 was released.

There are ways to call people out on their performance. The second it goes from hey tighten up those rotations to your a fucking idiot, is where I would be sending a report.

That’s up for debate. I prefer the PvP skins then the Envoy set.

Easier to check it out in game, however if your away from a pc for an extended period of time.

“Abrasive Grit: This trait now has a 5-second cooldown, and the might it grants has been increased from 2 stacks for 6 seconds to 3 stacks for 8 seconds”
Well there’s a change.

I concur, new maps, new Armor skins, a new tournament coming. Well done PvP team.

Nah, you have to craft the skin. Which you would have to do anyways to make it Legendary.

I agree, the Armor looks amazing!

You know the Mistforged Glorious can be upgraded to Legendary status, right?
I have the ardent variety at the moment, but will definitely upgrade it to Mistforged.

Yeah that meteor strike removes 50% of your health straight up. Would probably explain the crazy damage.

Way less then the actual legendary upgrade process though, it’s the same amount of shards as the ardent set.

Chest piece is 400 ascended shards, 4 Armor crafting tokens 250 shards of glory and 50 ectos. You also need to have crafted the ardent glorious chest piece too and be at rank 100.

Did you check out the Mistforged Glorious Armor yet?

So new PVP mistforged armor skin is better than PvP Legendary Armor
in Player vs. Player

Nah it’s like working really hard on the dreamer and only getting the lover skin. A year later the dreamer skin is released and you then have to complete additional steps to obtain it, after the entire Legendary process.
