Eh, I think the real issue is there simply aren't ENOUGH cosmetic rewards, and there aren't enough interesting different ways to get them. WoW had mini-pets and Mounts, some of which required specific tasks to get them, while GW2 atm really only has gear. I don't feel I need the carrot to be on the stick, but I feel like the carrot ANet is offering atm is a bit skimpy atm.

Your request runs directly counter to the intentions of this particular achievement, which was never about accommodating more players to complete it.

What it is meant to do is to hopefully persuade more people to try out wvw. Whether you end up liking wvw or not is besides the point.

So long as you are not able to reconcile with that, there's little room for negotiations, I'm afraid.

There is nothing exclusive about the title. It is open to all players, regardless of how good or bad at pvp we may be; we neither need to win another player in any form of combat nor personally complete any pvp objective to complete it.

These are pve objectives in wvw, placed there solely for pve with nothing at all to do with pvp.

I do not see server transfer as a legitimate solution either, but waiting for the opportune time to make a dash for it or simply follow the slipstream of your fellow server mates who are actively involved in wvw are both valid ways to do it.

Note that I don't call these "workarounds" either, not do I consider them "fixes" since nothing is broken here.
They are just two out of many ways.

Reading the OP's arguments just sound silly to me. All that "iseewutudidthar anet, u make me try to switch skills, i onto u!" it also sounds like the OP is most likely using a glasscannon build too which probably spirals onto the "everyone is killing me so fast, this isn't fair, I don't want to buy different armor" although I'm still confused how he tries to dispute the part about simply adjusting utility skills. "nooo i not change skillz dis is wat pvp is like, u not trik me!".


Which then leads me to wonder how you deal with other parts of GW2 like dungeons. Are you also in the same stance?

Him: "nonono I'm not bringing any defensive utilities, this is just a ploy from anet to make me PVP"
Party members: "What the hell you talking about? we need more support skills if we want to survive that boss"
Him: "It's all just a trick to make you pvp guys, dun be fooled!"

For me, GW2 still has more potential than any other MMO on the market at the moment. Coming from WoW, it was time for a change, and for me personally, GW2 has delivered.

I think the game released with an utterly massive amount of content. It's comforting to know that ANet is committed to releasing what seems to be a major content patch every month or two. That's promising, and something only a few other MMOs can boast. It's also comforting to see how nimble the developers at ANet have the ability to be. When an exploit or game-breaking bug is found, they are able to shift their focus and fix it as soon as possible (the manner in which they fix some of them is controversial, I know - another conversation for another time).

As others have mentioned, it seems as if the problem here is the player. The expectations are too high. It's unreasonable to expect a game (or application) of this magnitude to release without bugs. It's unreasonable to expect a game to come out with infinite content. It doesn't seem as if the people that complain could ever be realistically satisfied. Ideas are suggested and often preceded by the phrase, "It would be easy to..." With hundreds of thousands of people playing and millions of lines of code, nothing that appears easy is easy.

Personally, I'm at 350+ hours, and I cannot tell you the last time I got that much enjoyment out of a game for $60.

yeah,you should get it in 15 minutes.Or better,just log in and find it in the mailbox!

I quit the game instantly, waited two months for my ranger to become viable in PvP. Jon promised us significant changes to weapons and utlities and all we get is a nerf to traps and useless buff to water combat.

After all the BS which has been fed to us, I will never believe a word from ArenaNet again.

Kill Shot currently is bugged with piercing causing it to do 10% more damage the more people it passes through (i.e. 10% more for each person it hits).

As for the rest of it, I can hit 20k on targets with 90% of the burst damage abilities of any of my 80s in full zerker gear on other people in full zerker or low level. This is a simple highlight video of a guy wailing on lowbies/zerker geared individuals that you're all taking as some sort of evidence that everything you've ever argued about is by default now in your favor. Sorry, but that's just idiotic.

By the way: I am on Ehmry Bay server. Opollo. So if you go against my server we can set up a duel. Hit me up.

Oh here we go. I kind of get tired of people whining about nerfs every two seconds. Every game I play. I just logged into Chivalry:MW and the FIRST thing I saw was people COMPLAINING about X is too weak and X is too strong...LIFE ISN'T FAIR.


1) Maybe you just aren't a good Elementalist and like all the other players who want a instant "IWIN" button.

2) If you think Elementalist need "buffs" in their current state or there is something "seriously" wrong with them, see 1.

3) Destroy means I have rarely if ever come across anyone in WvW that beat me. Doesn't mean I can't be beat.

And OH YEAHHHH I NEED TO LIE ABOUT PLAYING AN ELEMENTALIST! You figured me out!

Two best players I have fought in WvW was a warrior who literally took 75% of my health instantly and a thief.

People keep talking about this "skill" crap like sPvP is that much different. Running around in circles is hard apparently.

I had to try sPvP. I thought there was something "magical" and different about it. There isn't. People running around talking about fights matter more  in sPvP probably cause their team to lose thinking this is World of Warcraft... because correct me if I am wrong but I am pretty sure sPvP is just capture the point/kill mob fake LoL gameplay. Oh...and doesn't my team get like...a buff that makes me more effective...just like WvW?

Oh yeah....

It does.

You going to spend time soloing someone instead of objectives? Tsk tsk.

But I am sure you do that on point right?

You know....

Sometimes I feel that the Elementalist have the biggest learning curve of all the classes.

Which would explain why so many people are complaining about how "weak" they are.

You either know how to play or you don't. Period.

There are plenty of Elementalist here that give tips,advice and work arounds.

By the way, here's the definition of destroy. Take your PvP....I mean pick.

http://www.thefreedi...ary.com/destroy

....you made a bunch of wild numbered assumptions and you rest your case at asking me if I played Tournaments?

You would have just been better off with "TLDR"...

...And people ACTUALLY take someone who complains about their class balance  and wants to apparently "duel" people in Tournaments?

If this was a case the judge would have thrown it out as soon as you started talking.

You complainers will cry for nerfs/buff forever.

Until you get your "iWin" button.

Light Armors :

Bear Token + Arcane Orb + Any Light Armor Token = Champion's Set / Crit = Whispers Set

Bear Token + Arcanre Crystal + Any Light Armor Token = Whispers Set / Crit = Ascalonian Clergy Set

Bear Token + Arcane Silver + Any Light Armor Token = Ascalonian Clergy Set / Crit = Flame Legion Set

Medium Armor:

Bear Token + Acrane Orb + Any Medium Armor Token = Prowler's Set / Crit = Whispers Set

Bear Token + Arcane Crystal + Any Medium Armor Token = Whispers Set / Crit = Ascalonian Leather Set

Bear Token + Acrane Silver + Any Medium Armor Token = Ascalonian Leather Set / Crit = Flame Legion Set

Heavy Armor :

Bear Token + Arcane Orb + Any Heavy Armor Token = Knight's Set / Crit = Whispers Set

Bear Token + Arcane Crystal + Any Heavy Armor Token =  Whispers Set / Crit = Ascalonian Set

Bear Token + Arcane Silver + Any Heavy Armor Token =  Ascalonian Set / Crit = Flame Legion Set

Later I gonna post results of weapon crafting for bear glory level.

You see, instead of asking for retal to get removed, because it makes you go ouch so much...you could simply stop hitting yourself...

How is "I hate underwater combat, remove it" any more valid than say "I hate capturing points, remove it."?

"I don't like it" isn't exactly a valid reason for removal of a mechanic.

And that map with underwater combat has two points on dry land, you never need to actually fight in the water.

Underwater combat is great.

No one is going to like all the maps/areas, or all of them equally. Underwater map rotation is also a part of trait balance.

Just to throw my 2cents into the conversation: AA > AA > AA... would be considered a combo, technically. It is a series of attacks after all. Generally auto attack spamming is considered filler, A means to DPS when rotations/skills are on CD. But it also depends on where it is used in ones rotation.

This is how i would break down combo(rotation) VS filler attacks. Take the following

skill x > skill y > AA > Skill Z > AA > AA >AA

|______________________||___________|
  Rotation (Combo) ___________  Filler


In this game, Hip shot would be considered an AA.
