    They did for me. I always enjoyed the speed and pace of exploration of Tyria in the base game. Your feet were always on the ground and it was centered around your character and his/her abilities. Gliders were a welcome addition. They didn't so much meddle with things too much, and only opening up more options when exploring. But mounts completely change the speed and pace of how we explore the maps, and further add to the mindset of rushing through everything (im more of the -slow down and smell the flowers- type, when it comes to exploring in my games).

     

    And it's not like I can simply opt out of using them because then I'll just fall behind as everyone will rush past me and reach events faster than I can. The flying mounts are the worst of all. Try a google search on what the addition of flying mounts did for World of Warcraft. Ideally mounts should have been constrained to the POF maps only so that they could be optional. Except instead, this new Meta is forced on everyone and trivializes base game maps. Nothing makes me wish GW2 was a single player game more than mounts do.

  2. Specifically, I am talking about the PoF and Season 4 maps.

     

    I actually wish they would reduce the population of hostile mobs in the open zones. I'm pulling mobs from everywhere anytime I step a few feet in any direction. Exploration is the games strong suit and I want more instances where I can do that unhindered.

     

    However, it seems they've purposely gone out of their way to put a hostile mob on every inch of the map to the point where I cannot avoid combat no matter how hard I try. I can only wade through them with the raptor so far, because I get flung off and forced to fight another trash veteran mob that has 100000 health, does 100000 damage, and drops nothing when I kill it.

  3. With slightly over 100 matches this season I've only made roughly 120 gold. Compared to PvE methods of making gold this just seems unrewarding to a player like myself who prefer to spend their time in-game doing PvP.

     

    And to motivate players to play good (and not just play for the gold), we should get paid more the higher ranking we are.

  4. I purchased the [istani Isles—Mount Select License](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Istani_Isles%E2%80%94Mount_Select_License "Istani Isles—Mount Select License") so I could get a particular mount skin I wanted. Now I've realized the license does not contain the skin I wanted, and there was no preview available before purchase so that I could have made an informed gems purchased!

     

    I purchased my gems with gold transfer.

  5. I had a sudden realization while pvping today, that as a Spellbreaker I actually don't break any spells at all.

     

    For example; wouldn't it have been more game changing if Winds of Disenchantment prevented classes like mesmers and ele's from casting their spells? Disappointing when all these flashy skills, and the only power my Spellbreaker has is boon stripping.

     

    It seems to be a very safe move on Anet's part not to move too far away from the current gameplay which is boons and conditions, and playing it very safe when they made the warrior's elite.

  6. I wouldn't complain if my targeting remained once the other player left stealth. But sheer amount of stealth spam currently in the game I feel it really undermines the targeting in a very cheesy way. For example the DRUID currently spams a whole lot of stealth. And with the addition of the pet, makes Tab-Targeting them again time consuming and ultimately gives them a big advantage of not being hit when they leave stealth, since I need to hit tab at least twice sometimes because it targets the pet first.. And that is not the only class guilty of using this kind of cheese tactic to win fights.

  7. I would love to see a true free cam available in Guild Wars 2. What this means is we can unlock the camera from behind our character, and move the camera around freely to see the environment or to get closer look at our own character or other characters. Great for screenshots, machinima and video! And also giving a stronger sense of freedom to players.

     

    Thanks you :)

  8. Hello, the Elonian heavy chest and Elonian greatsword there is clipping on Char. ![](https://i.imgur.com/mi5W5XB.jpg "")

    from the side: ![](https://i.imgur.com/gx1pg7M.png "")

     

     

    This happens only on chestpieces that came in Path of Fire.

     

    Here is another greatsword on the same chest piece: ![](https://i.imgur.com/agbWVMI.png "")

     

    here is same weapon with an older, core game chest piece ![](https://i.imgur.com/ju67xeE.png "")

     

  9. I feel like they've taken the core guardian from 2012 and gave it an overhaul so it's not as simple and repetitive as the old Guardian. A new makeover for core guardian players in 2017.

     

    In comparison I felt the Dragon Hunter deviated too far from what I personally feel should be a Guardian's role in all aspects of the game. So as a core Guardian player, thank you for this great update to one of my favorite classes.
