Anet has ALREADY opened that Pandora's Box ... so sure express your opinion but it's hard to see how that opinion is relevant to the game when Anet has already moved past the 'shouldn't be an option to buy progression' issue. > > > > Again answer this: why should people who do not want that stuff in the shop stop voicing their displeasure in such feats in an attempt to get ANet to stop adding such items? > > No one said they shouldn't. I'm just wondering if someone has a reason other than 'feels bad' for why Anet shouldn't offer more. Clearly, whatever the reasons so far, the ones that lead Anet to offer progression elements win out over the ones that don't. It's easy to see why based on this thread. > > >I might as well just stop playing, uninstall, and never give ANet another dime. Because it's going to end up that way, might as well save my money and put my money and time towards other games that do not turn into a huge pay to win game.

The idea this is something people don't like is completely artificial because it's based on some non-existent idea that we 'compete' in PVE so selling 'win' isn't fair ... when the reality is that we play co-operatively and if someone wants to buy 'win' that's just more people to play with and fund the game. The ideas you people have are archaic. Sure ... leave GW2 ... and see what game you can play that doesn't have a store where you can't buy 'win' ... GL. > Nah if people buy there win we have less people to play with since there is less incentive for those to do the content that none paying people need to get the same mastery point.s

This means beating the lower difficulties is done using completely different tactics, as an example in Uncategorized Fractal Old Tom's room doesn't require using the fan at lower difficulties.

With proper amount of critically thinking you can find more You dont need to use the fan in t4 either fyi

No there is not a way to lift it. Unsure if the gem is related to the 4 day new player period tho. Might be something to do with charging the same card in quick succession, best thing to do is put in a support ticket

Yea considering that champions havent ended yet so no ap awarded for the story was that the issue?

Yes it was on the first page even when you made your thread hence why I said read the first page to see if its been brought up. Edit Fyi it still is on the first page.

Yes and I mentioned it in that thread that are still in the first page of this same sub forum so why was this thread needed?

If that leader was a traitor then they sure as hell shouldn't keep the title of president. > > > He's not replaced though... Only those with the bloodline of the first 4 of the Khan-Ur's children can be Imperators. He's not a traitor as well. He's the leader of the Blood Legion. How can you be a traitor to your own leadership? > > Bangar didn't go AWOL. Bangar betrayed the Blood Legion when he left and formed the Dominion. When he abandoned the Blood Legion he lost any right to the title of Imperator and left a vacuum that Crecia filled. That was quite logical given that she was his second in command and _didn't_ betray the legion. > > > > I mean you surely don't think that he, a traitor that incited mass mutiny from the legions, formed a new nation and caused a civil war that devastated the legions, should remain in charge of the Blood Legion just because he was in charge of it once? That makes absolutely no sense. > > > > I'm sure that most loyal Blood Legion charr (and quite a few Dominion members at this stage) would love his head on a pike over the death and destruction that he caused. They sure as hell don't want him back in charge. > Again - Crecia doesn't have the Khan-Ur bloodline, so she can't be an Imperator, unless she just suddenly is. And you can't betray if you're the top dog. Who are you betraying? Bangar may be an absolute monster as a leader, but he's still the leader. Blood Legion owes their loyalty to their Imperator. Charr Legions were at war with each other before, This is nothing new. If anything, the non-Blood Legion Charr that joined him are the traitors. Him creating the Dominion and a lot of Charr joining only proves that he's got the charisma to lead. > > I'm with you with that it doesn't make sense Crecia suddenly becoming Imperator. It's like we just time-skipped some Charr politics and suddenly there's a non-Khan-Ur lineage Imperator and everyone's just fine with it. What a way to ruin an interesting lore tidbit for the Charr there. > Were do you get the information that only the bloodlines can be imperators? https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Khan-Ur Only his bloodline can be khan-ur it says nothing about the imperators. Just that the first imperators are his children nothing about a rule of it always having to be like that.

Raiding is now considered a niche for players who think they are much better then others. > On the negative. The debate has shifted. It is almost as far as asking kill proof for the cave troll in Queensdale. (jokes aside, there has been some stirred up emotions about asking raid killproof for incredible easy dragon respons missions). Yea its almost like people cant be bothered to make their own groups. They always want to be the last fifth to join so they never have to wait at all.

If this is true than thats 1 reason all the jp chests give crap loot. To reward it as little as possible.

Maybe read the first page? https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/119483/psa-champions-lfg-is-fixed#latest

You get gems every 5k chests.

Dragon response mission. Same as all the other threads about mastery icons in ebon hawk, bloodtide coast, lake doric, thunder head keep, caledon forest etc.

Or might have been something about the character looking bored during cutscenes.

> @"Evil.1390" said: > I wouldn't mind them testing this with the previous Guild Wars Game, that has been completed for the most part. It would be easier to implement as its only one skill bar to deal with and skills. Not that it would be easy but would be love to try this on console. Loved Guild Wars and would love to experience again on console but its only a wish or dream at this point. haha. Could be good for each expansion to come out slowly as well if all goes to there plans with the first part. :) just a thought and idea. Holy necro batman.

Kinda odd that the ebon vanguard release dident come with the ebon hawk dragon response mission tho. Arent we supposed to help the ebon vanguard with their stories?

The weekly chest stack tho so are you sure you dont have multiple off it?

yes your missing the Cms unsure if you can do that in public now, I always did them in private

> @"Rhyiann.8461" said: > Hello, I have been trying to play a different Class than the ones I have tried up to this point but I love ranged classes. I understand that I can turn a melee class as warrior into ranged but I still dont know how can that happen since there are restrictions to weapons for classes. Is there proficiency to be acquired along the way so that a warrior or a thief can use a ranged weapon? and at what level will that happen? Thanks Viper gear, sword/torch and longbow berserker and you got your ranged warrior. Guess you can go core warrior with dual sword and longbow but not as good as berserker imo. You can either go core thief dual pistols or deadeye ( thief elite) can use rife or dual pistols. Edit You can use all weapons form level 1 just equip them.

I so regret losing dungeons as they were so much better, i had no idea what the grindy future would bring. The dungeons are still there get 1-4 more people and go ham on them.

Not going to happen they are to busy working on the expansion.

I've been playing since GW1 and feel like I'm missing out on some key lore for the game just because i can't. The only way I've managed to experience the first raid was by paying gold to a player. I would not expert rewards for it (legendary armor) the Lore would be enough. I just want to play the story off them but at a difficulty level I can manage. > > One night a friend of mine said "hey Mind, let's do a raid".

Well according to some the 45 mins to get group together and kill is to much. 30 second group form and 8mins kill might even be to long. They seem to want it like world bosses on a timer and just show up wack it afew times and collect loot.
