Sanity Obscure.6054 Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I remember everyone raging over the introduction to ascended gear and how they claimed Anet backed on their word that there wouldn't be gear treadmills. Which, they ultimately didn't after ascended/legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember crafting loads of Runes of Life and thinking it was amazing that we could create items with great bonuses (+20 Health! With no downsides!) right from the start. To be fair I was coming straight from GW1 where +20 health was a big deal. > @"demitel.1340" said: > I member when people thought that [Hero's Band](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hero%27s_Band "https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hero%27s_Band") would give unfair advantage for people who pre-purchased the game. As above I think it's because GW1 used smaller numbers so +2 to all stats would be a significant boost. The best you could get from upgrades in that game was +3 to 1 attribute, and that was balanced out by removing 75 health. But I still use my Hero's Band, right up until level 80 on each character, and I keep it in their inventory after that. If there was a way to upgrade it to ascended (or even exotic) I'd keep using them, even though celestial stats doesn't fit most of my characters.

Didn't do that again, that's for sure.

If there was a way to upgrade it to ascended (or even exotic) I'd keep using them, even though celestial stats doesn't fit most of my characters. Indeed. All my characters still have that in their respective bags (somehow I can't *ever* bring myself to throw it away), along with the EotN access stone, even though only Rangers have *any* need to go there any more. Oh, and I still have two (large) figurines of Rytlock cluttering up my spare room from when my wife and I bought the Collector's Edition to get guaranteed access to BWE2 and onwards.

Mea.5491 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I remember when Sylvari wasn't available in beta so I had to play Human (ew). :P I remember when Anet changed the behavior of mobs during one of the beta weekends and they avoided our ground AoEs. People were angry so they reverted the change, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
