    > So you are self-identifying as entitled and selfish? Not sure if that was the point you were trying to make, but that is what has happened.....

     

    Lol well its all about perspective. I think it is clear.

  2. I was checking a dictionary

     

    entitled

    /ɪnˈtʌɪt(ə)ld/

    adjective

    believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment.

     

    selfish adjective

    self·​ish | \ ˈsel-fish \

    Definition of selfish

    1 : concerned excessively or exclusively with oneself : seeking or concentrating on one's own advantage, pleasure, or well-being without regard for others

    2 : arising from concern with one's own welfare or advantage in disregard of others

     

     

     

    P. S. I too am requesting for the option to turn off the flapping of other skyscales on my screen.

     

     

  3. Would be nice if you could remount after a certain amount of time of not having attacked (x) and not being attacked (y), x>>y, both resetted upon normal ooc status.

     

    That would rule out repeated Mount-wiping. The goal, after all, is to help when you are travelling, esp in a train, whether meta, hp, or bounty, or even just a party, all of which require u to keep up with the main body. You don't need an adventure/journey every time you want to travel somewhere that you've already explored before. You can get that fix elsewhere. You only explore once - after that, you have specific destinations and goals in mind.

     

     

     

  4. I am not at all jealous/envious that ppl have skyscales. At all. I am not in the least bit interested in asking Anet to change your skyscale functionality or its looks on your screen. When I am free and feel like it, I will also get the scale for myself.

     

    I believe that invalidates the most common counter-argument listed in this thread so far, against my request.

     

    As for comparing with other mounts when they were newly released, I wasn't bothered - was anyone? I dunno...

    The current problem is that the animation for the scale's low altitude hover is very pronounced and visually disruptive with negative effects on some ground players.

     

    Please let us toggle the animation of other ppls scales off on our screens if possible.

  5. I would like to re-emphasise that my personal gripe is with the constant flapping of the big wings, in and out and in of sight, that cannot be avoided. This is parallel to complaints of framer ate loss, and different from any complaint that ppl are showing off their mounts, and many ppl's suggestions is to reduce their clutter on our screen if we choose to toggle it so

     

     

     

    Of cos, there's another issue that will worsen over time, ppl afking near bosses after tagging them. It has already started. But that's a different issue.

  6. Give casino coins a menu option to convert to casino coin case (eg name) of 250 coins (or change the double click to this, and make the Exp option into a menu option)

     

    Double clicking the case will deconvert it to 250 coins

     

    -

     

    Necro minion control - change it to something like the pof story step in vabbi of attacking the foundry. F5 command to direct minions

     

    -

     

    Change applyable skins so that you can unlock them in wardrobe without consuming them, acc bound - more for blc weapon skins and their collections

     

    -

     

    Reduce the trigger range of bounties, to around 600. There have been times when, Without knowing the real trigger range, i err on the side of caution and wait further away while gathering people... Then when we go in, we find that it has been spawned... Or make it so someone who takes a bounty off the board can see if it has been triggered, preferably with timer too

     

    -

     

    Pls, allow mentor tags to exist in tagless 10squads (so that we can mark locations on maps, for stuff like bounties)

    > But I do not think that making the springer mandatory in order to optimize our griffon is a fun mechanic, it feels like a chore we have to do in order to get to the fun part. In some situations, it also removes the idea of each mount having a niche use: I don't have to choose between the springer and the griffon, since I can use both.

     

    Is this self-contradictory?

     

    Ur idea won't help you optimize ur griff on at all, since you are now a grounded griff on or a hop-on-the-spot bunny?

     

    And this chaining actually gives each a niche use, since they combine to provide a new function?

     

    But the most Impt thing is that no game content requires this specific combo (but only as an additional, better option in specific situations). As an adult, you can restrict yourself to get the end effect you desire, by simply not using the skill. You don't need a nanny to restrict your options so you are forced to not use this combo

  8. I didn't buy the original set, and I absolutely will never buy it in its current form, and there are skins in there that I want, but

     

    It would be unfair (any time soon) to those who already got it, because they had to factor this RNG into their purchase decision, perhaps even buying the whole pack. They might never have done that if select licenses were already available. Think doing this would be like spitting at those who supported Anet first. If I had bought that set I would be unhappy too.

     

    (Ur silver-fed example is completely not a parallel btw)

     

     

    Of cos, if those who purchased the original set don't mind, by all means

  9. Some egs to consider:

     

    1) ppl afking at teq laser - they cause champs to spawn at the wp (instead of vets), which can overwhelm the 1-3 volunteers for that defense spot in an overflow map. They afk there till the last phase, when they finally go to tag. Once, I shifted from NW def to NE because the South turrets were being overrun, and it was really miserable trying to solo the 3 champs - thanks to the afkers at laser.

     

    2) ppl afking at AB East, not helping to bomb octo, some not even helping to attack after tagging

     

    3) ppl sending summons/pets to fight mat, then hiding in safety, while causing mat to dash around and the fight goes from a potential fast 1.5min to 5-10 agonising min.

     

    4) 90% of people slacking at shadow behemoth, while a handful run around to clear the portals.

     

    It's a fact that OP has a point, that there are selfish people in the game. This isn't about elitism, nor just about begrudging that ppl get free meals. Those are ppl who truly are selfish, and whose presence does cause scaling that players have to cover for, and selfishness begets more selfishness.

     

    @op, just let it be. Like some others have pointed out, there's no simple solution to this issue. Any 'solution' is likely to cause different unintended problems. Sometimes the cure can be worse than the disease

  10. (It's not really true that phase 1 requires press-spamming '1'... cntrl-rightclick 1... )

     

    But when I do do jormag, I do protect the golems...

     

     

    Well, if you want to spice up jormag, it must come with improved rewards k... Making it more 'interesting' with the current rewards, I dunno abt that...

     

    If rewards get improved (to teq-standard) , then you could

     

    change cannons to be useable like someone already mentioned, with the following functions:

    1) shoot to smash icicles

    2) shoot lavaballs to damage the minions and create small firefields

    3) shoot something at jormag to slowdown his recovery (he was supposedly shot down, that's the premise for him obediently standing there for ppl to poke his toes. Or shoot some kinda glue to keep him grounded

    4) shoot something at his face to disrupt his ice breath attacks

     

    Ledges:

    1) get rid of those crazy champ tanks that are not worth killing...

    2) create vet shamans that do their typical summoning (ala frozen maw) and need to be killed

     

    Players

    1) create player-useable mortar kits that we can setup, with similar functions to turrets

    2) mine/grenade-packs using special action key. You can use catapult mechanics to lob deployable mines into the ice field

    3) jormag spawns minions from where he is, the mines kill them

    4) set an npc to tell ppl to pick these up and use them

    5) lob flashbangs to ministun jormag

     

    With repeated emphasis that if there are changes, it should be in the direction of teq, not ire.

  11. Most ppl miss the point... You only need to 'worry' about your midriff in pvp, when fighting ppl using blades and what-not. BUT.

     

    In open world, you are fighting elder dragons, wyverns, orcs, dinosaurs, war robots, lasers, poison spit etcetc, so you don't need to protect the midriff and boobs etc.

     

    Furthermore, your armor pieces' defense values combine into a meta value that protects your whole body magically. Heck, even cotton and silk can provide defense against both blades and the slam of an elder dragon. It's magic, obviously.

     

    So, logically speaking, you are free to wear whatever you like, and there's really no need to fret, not even for pvp. Just wear whatever takes your fancy, and let other ppl wear whatever we like.

     

    You've got scale, chain armor etcetc if you're still worried tho

  12. It's not completely true that you should destroy just because you don't need it now...

     

    Look at how blsk has become the only (commonplace) way to retrieve runes/sigils. And then there's RNG. My main acc has half a blsk - probably gotten 5 in 2.5 years, while a sub acc has 10-20 or something in <1yr. Really regret wasting them freely before the rune/sigil revamp...

    > Okay, I did not remember there were any regarding trinkets. Thanks! :)

     

    Ah sry I gave the wrong impression. I don't recall any reset for trinkets either, my statement is based only on the 2 or 3 times they have resetted frac-purchased armors in the past. And it's just a logical deduction that infusion slots are made to work the same way, same as with the stat-selection interface, cos why make different codes.

     

    Well, even if they mess it up (very unlikely), they'll fix it anyway. They aren't like those kind of companies that bunker down and wait for the anger to blow over.

  14. How much gold would those 6 stacks convert to tho? Est 26k vol magic? It's not as cheap as it appears...

     

    As for my vote, they should reduce only if they can reimburse, but I do think 250 is a bit over the top. 100 would have been more in line with the scope of this mount, on top of all the earlier chores. I seriously doubt they will reduce this though, but hope they reconsider not doing this for future mounts.

     

    (I did expect that there would be another aurora for lw4, but since I have no intention to get GoB, I figured I wouldnt need to stockpile those currencies. My main coincidentally happened to be short of only ep 3(130) and 4(220). But people shouldn't be too sure that there won't be another aurora on top of skyscale)

     

    Btw, does anyone know if Anet permits any program to run 2 copies of gw2 simultaneously, or is that against the toc? And if allowed , what's a good one? I'm tempted to buy home nodes on my main to let my subs farm them for the skyscale, but only if its allowed of cos
