congrats to the whiners, they got their wish. Era of welfare legendary will begin soon...

Because (1) The cost of the Precursor is the most significant chunk in the price of crafting a legendary, (2) buying them for 20g in week 2 was more of an effort than buying them for 200g in week 20 will be.

Oh, wait...

Taking steps to stabilise the price of Legendaries around the 150-300g mark, rather than letting them increase all the way to 999gm is a good move. Adding fixed recipies to the forge for the Precursors isn't necessarily going to be killing their value or make them be a give away. Eldritch Scroll + 250 Ecto + 100 Lodestone + 250 Ori/Components/Orbs/etc (so around 200g plus 50 SPs), for example, would remove the RNG in their acquisition without making them easy to get. I actually think that rather than just increasing their drop rate adding fixed, but expensive, recipes to the Mystic Forge is the best solution to increase supply.

I think it's time for JQ guilds to declare victory and retire.

#1981956 rifle/bow war vs sbow/lbow ranger

Posted Fawkes November on 30 September 2012 - 05:49 PM

Warrior Longbow is so much better, not only you have better AoE but, well, you're a Warrior. Rifle is much better single target damage too.

Longbow Ranger has better range but honestly, Longbow ranger is so incredibly boring it's not even funny, the only AoE you have is Barrage which has a 30 second cooldown, the auto attack is slow and it sucks, your pet is useless because he dies so fast to all the AoE around so you can't use him, the Warrior is so much better designed than the Ranger it's not even funny.

The extra 300 does not mean a lot unless you're one of those people who just want to stay back and do something every 30 seconds and wants to take no risks but contribute little to the fight outside of barrage, honestly, a very boring play style, I would even take a Shortbow thief with 900 range over a Ranger with a Longbow at 1500 to be completely honest.

#1958273 why are there so few people around now?

1. Name your server so we can actually discuss that part of your question.
2. You're in a dead zone. A place the majority of players haven't yet reached. Or the majority of players have already moved on from.
3. You're in a crappy zone. A place where people have access to but don't because, well.. (I'm looking at you, Lornar's Pass)
4. You're playing outside of prime time.
5. The people in that zone simply don't want to do whatever you're doing. (I'm looking at you, Megalodon's)
6. Everyone is dead. You're the last person on Earth. This is an automated message.

I believe stealth should not be able to be used in combat, only to enter and engage. Stealh initiates, stealth getaways and stealth stomps are just too much, they should be able to stealth in, but not be able to use stealth to get out of a fight.

#1951754 Only thing i dislike of pvp: Downed Status.

Posted Eliyahu on 20 September 2012 - 01:51 PM

Players in the downed state need to take 100% more damage from players. That would fix a lot of the problems. No need to rely on finishers.

#1942167 Dungeon Finder - Yes or No?

Posted Robsy128 on 18 September 2012 - 12:40 AM

We all have guilds... some people prefer just one guild. It's easier to manage. The fact is that at the moment, you technically have to queue to get into content. You literally have to wait any time between 2 minutes and 45 minutes to get a group going in order to enter a dungeon. To do this, people have to spam 'LFP' in the map chat.

The only reason the dungeon finder feature failed in other games was because the designer and developers nerfed the content. Let's keep the content the same, but make it easier to form groups. It's really not a game-changing feature to ask for. It's not even a surprising thing to ask for, considering many games allow you to find players who want to play the same content as you within 30 seconds - 2 minutes.

#1941483 Dungeon Finder - Yes or No?

Posted skooterodin on 17 September 2012 - 08:19 PM

I was actually thinkin something like this this weekend as I sat around looking for someone to do story mode becasue most were doing explorable. So I was out of luck.

I would like it to put into a que if the person wished and be autogrouped and teleported to dungeon. That way kinda like queing for WvW I could go back to what ever i was doing untill enuff people que for storymode.

This shouldnt get rid of the ability if people wish to form thier own group tho.

Not sure if arena net looks at these forums or not tho. We may have to post this in the GW2 forum on thier site.

#1940578 Dungeon Finder - Yes or No?

Posted Robsy128 on 17 September 2012 - 03:42 PM

Hey guys

So how many of you have stood outside a dungeon spamming 'LFP so and so dungeon!' or seen people do it? Quite a few, right?
I think it'd be a good idea for Arenanet to implement some kind of dungeon-finding utility which we can all use. I remember them saying in an interview that they don't want people standing around spamming: 'need monk for party!' but at the moment people are standing around just spamming: 'need party!' It's not fun. I'd rather queue up for a dungeon and then go off and do some dynamic events, or some WvW. I don't want to sit outside Ascalon Catacombs and wait half an hour for a party to come together.

So, who agrees with me? And who doesn't agree with me? What features would you like the dungeon finder to have? Feel free to discuss below

Also, for those who say it ruined WoW - why did it ruin WoW? Did the developers and designers just nerf every dungeon to make it super easy? What if Arenanet implemented a dungeon-finding utility without nerfing the dungeons whatsoever?
