It still removes upgrades from legendary weapons if you swap them on the fly. It doesn't for me, unless the bug re-occured with one of the later patches.

The one fact remains that will ALWAYS be there; the risk to use third party software is on the player. This all comes down to a bunch of people who think they are getting screwed over because of a baseline they established for themselves and an expectation they set for Anet from using 3rd party software. That is part of the risk and this is an excellent example of what happens when that risk becomes reality for players who can't accept it. This is an absurd bow-out. You mean the risk associated with an expectation that a professional game design company might have it within their capability to at the very least match what single individual was able to achieve in his spare time. You're right though, my baseline expectation of Anet has been more realistically calibrated now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roso.1536 Posted December 26, 2019 Share Posted December 26, 2019 I noticed theres no mention to build/equipment templates on the roadmap, it shatters my heart.

Sure, tell Anet why but don't pretend that the constraints don't exist. > > It _is_ unreasonable to assume that ANet faced more constraints within their own system than DeltaConnected did. Surely, if a third party could create a simple system that worked with the game, the creators of the game could have created a simpler, maybe even better system. It's ludicrous to believe that the game's developer could not have done as well as an outside party did. Impecabbly said, IndigoSundown. As somebody who's worked in IT for decades, I'm annoyed by this argument that the developer is more limited by their own system than someone working outside it, and no - you don't need to be familiar with Anet's code to understand this. I've seen this from both sides of the fence. I've been tasked with trying to get the most of other developer's APIs, and I've built APIs. The people inside always have it easier - unless management intentionally make it difficult. Here's the thing: at the very least, Anet could have used their own API to provide the same functionality as ARC and still monetised it. Profit! Heck, they could have bought ARC, rebadged it and monetised it, like Microsoft do all the time. There are so many more options before you even get to rewriting the thing! So, yeah. That's my 2c.

Not recognizing that is being irresponsible, ESPECIALLY if you are going to use dishonest accusations to not accept that fact. No, it was what you meant. Because what other risk, at all, did we (and this is hilarious, by the way) 'irresponsible players' run? The only 'risk' we ran was having our "established baseline" ruined and Anet fail to meet our "expectations". That's how you described the so-called 'risk' of using ARC. I simply unpacked what those expectations were. There are no dishonest accusations here. There is simply feedback in a feedback thread. A lot of it takes the form of extremely harsh criticism. You don't like that. I don't care. I guess if Anet would show up here, to their own forums, in their own defence, then perhaps you wouldn't feel so obliged to speak on their behalf. Sometimes I come to these forums and I learn something new, find myself educated or have my opinion changed. This is not one of those occasions. You still haven't answered any of the questions I've asked you. But it doesn't matter. I'm done with you now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infusion.7149 Posted December 27, 2019 Share Posted December 27, 2019 Not sure why this needs to be a thread. > @"Dawdler.8521" said: > I thought they already posted some stuff on it long ago, like how they where fixing the auto changing of WvW/PvE/PvP templates. Switching to a default equipment/build tab was implemented December 3 , with out of combat weaponswap on ele + engi. For WvW it makes the templates restored to original function essentially but with added builds/equipment setups. For PvP your build+ equipment is locked once match starts so the benefit is lost there but allows for you to quick swap prior to match. https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/comment/1099265/#Comment_1099265 Rest of the mentioned roadmap for templates is " Ease of swapping legendary equipment between characters & Greater flexibility when making experimental changes to templates." My guess is that means legendary gear will get some usability improvements with the template system and the build templates will get a save changes option Speculation: * It's been datamined that you can have up to 10 build templates/equipment templates (but at the current pricing for most people it is probably better to buy character slots, particularly for WvW) * Ideally build storage would be cut down in pricing by quite a lot per slot, even if the amount of payment is the same 500 gems (i.e. 500 gems gets you 9 slots or even 18). * Equipment template pricing could be implemented such that buying 5+ gets you 20-30% off similar to other things in the gem store. I don't see this dropping in price much if at all. * Originally build templates were only to be switched in WvW spawn , but it's any time out of combat right now. It remains to be seen whether this will change. I see many people suggest this to be an account-wide unlock but given additional crafting license is 800 gems , I'd think the price would go up if made an account-wide unlock.

They said the templates system's problems were going to be addressed and they will be. Polishing already released content doesn't count as new content. ;) Actaully, what I am talking about has NOT been fixed. It still does it as of this moment. What I am talking about is the fact that every time you move a legendary from inventory into which ever "template tab" you have to ALSO replace the sigil and infusion manually EACH TIME. This is because every time a legendary weapon gets pulled from the weapon slot in the inventory swapping process it seems to, for lack of a better term, assume you are removing the weapon from the template as opposed to trying to just use a different weapon without having a tab for EVERY weapon and weapon combo. This is 100% consistent and repeatable, and its a kitten pain in the kitten that punishes players who try to use legendary weapons outside of only using pre-configured template tabs, which many people dont have, cant afford, and/or wouldnt want to buy. Really, no matter how you look at it, its a problem. People get legendaries because they are supposed to be the uncontested best that will always be upgraded if/when things in the game change (for instance infusion slots and new stat combinations). This issue with templates locks this function away behind a NEW gemstore unlock so to speak which people couldn't have known about before hand so again, no matter how you look at this is IS a SERIOUS issue that IS insulting to any player who, like myself, happens to have the default 2 tabs and a bunch of weapons and weapon combos that they use because now it takes longer than before to get my weapons swapped and setup w sigils, etc and some times when Im in a hurry I have forgotten and gone into battle without my sigils and infusions because I SHOULDNT HAVE TO DO ALL THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE AND DIDNT UNTILL NOW. I know you are trying to help, so am I. Im trying to help us get this issue resolved because it IS a serious one. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I simply unpacked what those expectations were. > That is dishonest, sorry. Any "risk" of say: - having your account terminated because arc did something which was against ToS (accidentally or by design) would have been on you - any item destruction, damage to characters, damage to account, etc. would have been on you - any security risk associated with any usage of a 3rd party app would have been on you (say someone put up a temporary malicious version of arc and got player's account data, etc.) It's fine to argue that risk was minimal with certain 3rd party software, but it was/is always higher and especially with other individuals (mostly with one self as it was always "use at your own risk" versus the developers) compared to have built in versions. Deltaconnected even has a HUGE red disclaimer at the top.

I know better than ANYONE ELSE HERE what I meant, including you. I'm not here to confuse you with complicated wordsmithing or apparently, even simple statements; exactly what I said is what I meant. The risk is on the player if they decide to use 3rd party tools. This is NOT a statement that can be disputed or confused in any way whatsoever. Just because you don't see the risk (or simply refuse to accept it was there and don't acknowledge it) doesn't mean it wasn't yours to take on. This is why there is a standing, universal recognition for every MMO I've ever encoutered that players should not use 3rd party tools. Again, if you choose to ignore that, the consequences will fall directly on you, whatever they may be. This feature is a great example of that.

The one fact remains that will ALWAYS be there; the risk to use third party software is on the player. This all comes down to a bunch of people who think they are getting screwed over because of a baseline they established for themselves and an expectation they set for Anet from using 3rd party software. That is part of the risk and this is an excellent example of what happens when that risk becomes reality for players who can't accept it. > > > > > > > > You mean the risk ... > > > > > > No, that's not what I mean AT ALL. I said EXACTLY what I meant ... the risk to use third party software will ALWAYS be on the player. Not recognizing that is being irresponsible, ESPECIALLY if you are going to use dishonest accusations to not accept that fact. > > > > No, it was what you meant. > > I know better than ANYONE ELSE HERE what I meant, including you. I'm not here to confuse you with complicated wordsmithing or apparently, even simple statements; exactly what I said is what I meant. The risk is on the player if they decide to use 3rd party tools. This is NOT a statement that can be disputed or confused in any way whatsoever. > > Just because you don't see the risk (or simply refuse to accept it was there and don't acknowledge it) doesn't mean it wasn't yours to take on. This is why there is a standing, universal recognition for every MMO I've ever encoutered that players should not use 3rd party tools. Again, if you choose to ignore that, the consequences will fall directly on you, whatever they may be. This feature is a great example of that. > > I find I am curious as to the answer to his question too. Did you or do you use arcdps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How you define reasonable may not be what others define it to be. Clearly, ANet believes it is reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
