Sure. I'd really prefer actual world pvp. Just let ppl toggle it on or off

It wouldn't make sense. If you balance the classes around holding points in conquest PvE and WvW wont work right.

That's bullshit. The game is mainly a pve game. PvP is a side thing nobody upstairs really cares about.

They had to lay off lots of people. Games tend to do worse after that.

I know its a lot of work but it could really revitalize the game and bring some new life into it. But i doupt it will happen.

new engine = new game.

Which would you rather see?

It's absolutely not O.K. Especially since they dont offer race changes. All those terrible clipping and ill fitting armor is probably the reason why they are the least played race.

So little? Almost everything clippa with charr lol

Ain't gonna happen. And probably for the best.

Go.

Nah that doesn't mean anything. If they want they can just make it so that if you equip an existing weapon with a certain espec it's different.

I don't think it does at this stage. GW2 is a niche game and I think it has it's own corner now.

GW2 is optimised very poorly, can't port it.

> @"Zephyr.5382" said:

> I agree about the balancing issue. But, then again, I think that can of worms has long since been opened. I would just like to have enough e-specs to make each profession desirable to everyone. For example, necro, in its current state, doesn't really appeal to me, and my necro characters have all been shelved for longer than I can remember. No offense, necro mains.

But that doesn't make any sense....if all classes are desirable for everyone that basically means they are all the same and offer no unique features.

> @"Eloc Freidon.5692" said:

> Elite specs will eventually become bloat for sure. We can squeeze in two more elite specs for now, but eventually for more variation we should get weapons open ended at least for future variation beyond that.

Eventually? You really think GW2 will even last for 2 more expacs? I doubt it. I mean, if you look at the sPvP population things look very grim.

IMO 3 e-specs per class is just perfect, don't think we need more. Hope there will be another expac sometime.

Are they any good?

New content is new activities you can do in the game:

A new map, new events, new fractals/raids, a new pvp mode(yea right) etc

The way he (the other side) reacted to "disturbing" the dead made it sound like its something terrible.

But in the personal story one side is shocked that the priory would disturb the dead,like its a terrible thing.

Id like any firearm.

That doesn't mean its consistent with the lore. Watlocks run around WoW all willy nilly yet they are really hated in the lore.

In terms of lore/rp... do regular humans shy away from necromancers? Are necros pariahs in human society?
