And i hope we'll see soon again the silver machine ( it should be here 2 times per year, and the first one was on jan if i recall correctly ).

Well, let's talk about ls3

1. **Bloodstone Fen**: No vertical issues or path to follow. WP situated way up above. pretty linear

2. **Ember Bay**: Pretty plain exploration. No multilvls.

3. **Bitterfrost**: A core Tyria map

4. **Lake Doric**: A core Tyria map ( and one of the most annoying one imho, though i liked the idea )

5. **Draconis Mons**: Here we have a multylvl map with a cool mechanic given from masteries. Pretty large but exploration and tokens collection was really fun.

6. **Siren's Landing**: Plain exploration, except some things. I used to hate at first the updraft part when too many players was there. But still my favourite map from the ls3 ( i really like abaddon's ascent ).

So, Draconis Mons apart, i see no other examples of of vertically/horizontally exploration map ( i can't say they are well balanced cause of the missing vertical exploration ).

And it's a waste that they say they won't bring HoT masteries in old zones ( but i do understand that is something related to specific zones ).

So my effort during HoT was all a lie...Yuk.

But still epic :sunglasses:

dude you should multiquote ( pressing quote will copy every post you want into you message sheet, so you can give a response between quotes instead of making X different posts ).

Seriourly, why in the world everytime something is *requested* there should be bonuses related?

Though, actually, i could enjoy threads like

> OMG ANET, NERF MARRIED SPELLBREAKERS. KITTENS!

what's the point of a full hp run ( it's for cash and currencies i guess, but i am not really into so i don't know what the profit could be )? and how much time does it take?

Didn't know.

I would have liked to see halloween in dr tbh, but now everything fits.

Fractals are way better ( the 2 new ones are so damn cool compared to dungeons and older fractals ).

I hope they continue that way.

maybe something dungeon related.

Just in time for the beginning of s9.

Now is kinda easy compared to the release, when td and ab meta was not always completed. I remember i had to wait in order to recover the ab hp or tp get to ds.

So if your RNG is not working for you, you can always buy it with gold you make while hunting for these exotics.

It's not about whether I recouped my losses from buying those 4500 bags (I didn't, btw, down a little gold but not much). Or even the time wasted in opening that junk.

They are not required in any way, just like you don't require precursor in this game to play it. If you can't afford spec weapon, craft cheapest ascended counterpart needed for your build.

Also, I could buy them on the TP, I have the gold but again that's ignoring the point that "they gated a collection through a low drop exotic that will likely have to be bought on the TP rather than earned through play".

I do understand pifil's point.

Though there are more than 1 way to get em, which is what i like, the second one consists in rng related unidentified gear.

It's not a real alternative, cause is not Clear what you need in order to achieve the item.

I.e. If i had been a recipe which needed to dtop from events and with a overall reduced cost ( due to events time sink ) would have been Nicer.

Try again.

Masteries are something which enhance the game, which are needed.

Skins and other things like achievements, Minis, legendary items and so on are no needed.

And you have my bless.

Farm as many of em as you want.

Hmm... guess that farming skins and achievements, or playing just for fun, is a thing no more.

More farm.

If people requires farm, or simply something to do, it means that they feel Somehow bored.

When somebody reach that point, he should simply take a break from the game.

No more masteries.

Stop please.

Farm achievements instead.

At least them won't harm anybody.

when you /age and OMG IS THIS FOR REAL?

It's simply a matter of time.

Want the item first? Gamble with keys

Don't want to gamble? Wait until the item is "old" enough to be put not on rng ( or tp ).

It sucks, i know.

Thank you very much Lanhelin.

Is it just me or it does not work anymore?

I can click on edit, and it change the message into the edit mode, but i can't select the cell itself by clicking, so i am not able to edit anything.

I tried to clear cache and a different browser ( both chrome and ff ) but nothing seems to work.

They will probably be avaible through blc with items like https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Black_Lion_Exclusives_Chest , which can bel sold through TP ( like previous items ).

So the price could be way higher than a normal outfit but less than believing in RNG ( around 500g, which could be between 2k and 2.5k gems converted ).

Bring back silver fed salvage o matic!

it's been almost a year!

\o

This could mean a pet with a hat.

You have my vote.

ofc strongly yes.
