That does it. Take away all gear, weapons, and spells. Everyone melees naked with fists. Wait Norn need a fist nerf cause they’re too big... Charr too hairy.. getting hair in my teeth when they attack. ?

I think when you drop from the mount this way you are already lower in health aren't you? I'm not sure but maybe? At any rate since you haven't been able to build up your adrenaline etc and this person knows how to play his ranger then ya... you can die that fast.

If someone decides to leave for a few years and they come back and are irrelevant in some way, Anet shouldn't be going out of there way to accommodate those players without some cost to those players. In this case the cost is a hard slog to earn the mount. Maybe Anet makes it so you can rent a mount ... I'm not against the idea, but the rent better be more than the effort to earn it outright.

> Warclaw is just one little thing in the whole content that PoF has to offer. They would not be able to use it outside WvW. It benefits they game mode if everyone is on even grounds. I don't want to have p2win stuff in any form of pvp. Why they should implement such a system? Because it would be good for everyone and I don't think it is an income factor at all for them. I don't really understand the I paid for it so no one should have it for free argument especially if it benefits the whole.

It doesn’t benefit me to have someone who hasn’t done the work and got the experience that goes along with it.

As someone noted above... if you truly want to be somewhere that is "all inclusive" think about moving to SoS. I'm not even on that server anymore but the people there are superb. A number of guilds, KING, LUV, HoT... to name just three, are great for new players. Sure they like their zerg builds and love people to be built for group fighting... and at the same time they are more than happy to help you know which build to use on which character etc. I am still in KING and if you move there want need a contact then fire me an email in game balthazzarr.1349 and I'll get you connected. ;)

I almost hate to say this but seriously, the rest of us paid and paid again and did all the grinding. Sorry but it’s part of keeping the game makers in business, as well as being fair to the thousands that paid the price.

> For all that people that think 1h CD is too long... how often do you use the consumable TtF versions? I believe that I used 4 in 3 years. You seriously complain because it has not a 5 min CD? wth are you planning to do with it, if it ever gets such a reduced CD? Come on folks, TtF is a feature that, exploits aside, you rarely will use ever.

> If I don't buy it, it's not because of the 1h CD, but because I never find myself in need of a teleport. The only useful situation I find for this item is when you enter a WvW map, to jump to your commander instantly. Other than that...

When we do missions and I’m on a toon without much mapping I use it a lot. An hour cool down is useless to me. All good though, I have over 100 consumables. ?

If this thing is anything like what I’m reading in here then it’s the one that got away for me. I don’t mind grinding but timed collections? Then wait until reset? Nope, not doing that.

Got to the new area. Back to wvw and more fun things ?

Sorry but I don’t get all the lag talk. I run on a laptop, ASUS ROG gaming system. 150mbps internet. No lag 99% of the time. Once in a very rare moment I get a bounce here and there.

Then again I’m in Canada where the internet is clean and fast. ?

imo it's ridiculous. Heck I have over 100 of the other ones and definitely won't waste money buying this new trinket that I can only use once in an hour. It should be just as reusable as the other permanent items are... and that's immediate! Otherwise it's more of a waste of money and inv space than anything else... imo that is.

Took me 20 minutes in eotm to get keep and tower. Pretty easy stuff.

It won’t help. Most people won’t block anyway. I see a lot more legit multi tags than I do troll ones. Maybe it’s limited to some servers and not others?

This isn't even April 1st. I read through this wide eyed... lol... if this isn't a troll thread of some sort then someone somewhere down there seriously needs to find new work.

Brain fart. I was thinking crafting stations. ?

.................

I'm all for removing downstate. I die as well as anyone else but how sweet it is when you fight a group and don't have to waste time cutting off the heads of scum as they lay on the ground writhing... :P

what gear/specs are you running? you say you're not running runes but that doesn't make much sense... I could edit an image as well... but if this is legit then seeing the information that gives this would be helpful. I run very close to that with marauders etc but not without using runes.

Yep. Those wannabe rangers are making it look bad for the real ones!

However I roam, I have to agree.

Nope you can't guest... to play on another server you have to move.

There's a bottom line that you and some other people are missing I think... and I'm not trying to be a troll. After all is said and done what is fun for me? Ranger is the most fun I have in this game, and I've built it to produce a large amount of damage and ppt (tower/keep siege support) as I can. Heck I can solo tower lords with this baby. It's fun.. I have level 80's of every class, duplicates of some. I've played them all... a lot. I always come back to my Ranger/Soulbeast. That's MY place of fun.

So maybe someone who really likes the other classes can find their fun there, for me it's 'here'... and for me I truly do get a lot more bags with my soulbeast than any other class I've played... and that's probably because I'm not as good at them as people who really know their classes. Which brings me also back to the comment about monkeys on scourges etc being better than rangers... it's simply not true for any class. If you don't know the class, no matter what it is, you're useless, imo. I eat poor players for snacks... ;)

Relinks really are a total waste of time. People just bandwagon to a linked server anyway. There are a bunch all ready to do just that shortly after relinks that are coming up so they do nothing useful anyway.

lol have to disagree with the last statement... I get so many kills when I'm zerging that I have to start off with a good set of empty bags ... even then I run the salvage tool now and then just to keep room for more trinkets and trash.
