imo they may not ban you for afk farming, here is why. IF YOU play the game as intended and you do much effort without being rewarded for the time spend then i see a (good) reason for semi afk farming. i mean cmon, you work your 455 off and not getting rewarded, that is a HUGE imbalance to reward/effort ratio. but IF YOU semi afk farm and get the SAME reward (a few silver i think) as when you work your 455 off then it would be unfair to ban such players. they better fix the effort/reward balance. like wvw patience or something, you get better/faster rewards when active.

Why torture youself with this? If you can afford a pc like that you can probably also afford a subscription based mmo that has much more to offer. I mean, gaming is for fun. Guildwars 2 is a gold grind simulator. Besides story and beautiful maps it has nothing. Gathering mats that sell for nearly nothing with the tp fee. Meta’s that only drop junk loot. The real reward that is Super Rare and 1/10k droprate. Ofc you can start raiding. Then you have a nice goal for some months or a year. If you have full legendary armor and some weapons. Where to use it? In a huge boss fight thats immerse for max 5 times. Sure the skins are nice. Pvp is no longer as what it was back then (by reading comments) the only content that gets refreshed often are gem store items. Thats the income. I had read that ppl finished soto within a few days while playing casually. Wvw is nice but imo i always need a group. Solo is not my thing. Ofc the game has strikes, dungeons, open world but thats just for fun. Its not rewarding for me. Only fractals and raids does have rewards. But thats for skilled players. Not the casual.

Good that the info you mention is roleplaying info. But irl i am fitt 😊 10,4/11% fat so i only have to lose till 6% thats needed fat my characters are mostly all lvl 80 so not much a problem.

No need to do yoga, just eat a food buff of choice and use that metabolic primer and you dont have to eat for 12 hours. And 1 meta burns enough fat already. You only have to eat more to keep your muscle in shape. and there is no mc donalds ingame.

There are only strong looking characters and fitt shapes in game (except asura’s but those are animals)

Thats why companys put exclusives in pre-order bundles. Ppl have no choice. You understand a big part of mmo is the show off? maybe you dont care about the pre-order items, but others do. Or maybe you just forgot those exclusives. Maybe this was good 20 years ago that you just waited for a game to be released. Nowadays thats not the case anymore. and sorry for double post. I tried to edit the post i already made and then quote. But the quote automaticly came in a new post and not the one i would edit. I am on phone and i am not a master in making forum things. So sorry for that.

Jackal is also nice to avoid getting dismounted from fall damage. just before you touch the ground press its special ability so yes you know what i mean.

Do you understand that the GEM shop is the real contend? (Because you know… fashion wars) Its their bron of income. Everything else they create outside of the gem store is part of the expansion and so have to be given away because ppl already paid for the expansion. Just compare how often both things get actually new contend. I mean. Compare how often the gemstore is filled with (new) creations and how often you get something else as a new creation, a map, or other activity’s. imo new zones are just new grinds for gold and let ppl think they are still busy creating something awesome. But they just want to keep the players and dont want them going away. And because new maps has nothing to offer maybe those players spend in gem store so they actully get something new shiny. Ppl still hoping for something nice. Just expanding time. ofc the team is small. But i think it would be more fair for the players that they invest in more devs to make more and faster contend that ppl wanting. Sure that cost alot of money. But you have to take risks as a company. Now they play safe and give less. While players want so much more. Imagine a team creating new races, professions, raids. It can be an even better mmo.

Why not? Just one person, me. Enjoying being rich in a game. Then i can flip expensive items and also gift others. Some ppl in guild made thousands of gold. But they are as greedy as yes you know. 1 guildy has more then 100k gold and someone liked chaos axe but didnt had the gold for it. But that rich person like to make others feel bad. So his joke was to send the person who wanted the chaos axe skin 2 stacks of gold ORE. Very bad if you can do this. Its the sams as driving with a koenigsegg throught a poor town. i am not like that. It makes me feel better to give new players an 18 slot bag or a few gold. I know it can be hard if you start in a new mmo. thats why i dont play anymore. I hate greed.

If anet gives me 100k gold and infinite gems then i come back to the game, to help ppl and enjoy the game as i want to. But last months i was only busy trying make some gold without enjoying the game. I miss my nevermore staff. And the binding of ipos and xiuquatl. If you skip 1 or 2 expansions in wow you can solo everything. I skippee 3 expansions. And left in WoD. When i played again this year i was able to solo many things. I lvled 1 toon with only archaeology from lvl 40 to lvl 60 got around 1 block xp each digsite. (The xp bar contains 20 blocks for a lvl)

I quit because of greed. But thats what all addicted ppl do. Defend something where they are addicted to. But new example. They removed the daily login rewards. Because ppl paid for many alt accounts for easy gold. Thats an investment that just got destroyed by anet. Its kind of greed because they dont want ppl to make easy gold. Now you actually have to play for the rewards. A guildy has 29 alt accounts. Let say they where 15 bucks each. Its useless now. And why? Because the ppl who made that 1 time investment doesnt buy gems anymore. Some got a few thousand gold a month with this. I never did this because gaming had to be relax. And logging in 30 accounts is not funny. and what about the afk farms some ppl do? If the effort ingame would be rewarded then ppl dont have to do semi afk farm. I mean. I have worked my … off in dragonstorm and always get a middlefinger for my support. Its just wasting time. Sure the battle looks awesome for first few times but then you go and aim for some loot. So effort balance ratio is very unbalanced. Working hard gets nothing. Semi afk farm means do nothing and get the same reward as when you work your … off. they can easy fix this. But why would they?

I dont watch guildwars 2 content creators if there are no drops. And i dont hate any guildwars 2 streamers. I hate greed. But thats not a person. and what do you think about the following what i am going to tell. (it will be my vision on how it works, i am not sure if its right, but yes, opinions) you players all keep believing in the wishes you have. like new raids, more pvp. alliances. new races, new professions. new everything. but you can forget that (for a long time) because, anet is a business. they have to make money!! i mean, they have a team that create gw2 content. a team that has to make money. their team is small (i heard) so they spend their man power (resources) smart. and that means they mostly creating gemstore items or other things that generate cash. they know ppl will buy it. example, they create a cat chair, cats are overall a hype and many ppl love cats. also with other fashion skins. they are lucky that ppl call the game a fashion game, that means. more fashion is more money for them. they are smart. why would they spend their man power in making new raids, or pvp. or races, or professions? that cost much effort and that cost too much. and after all, if they make a new raid or a new race, thats part of the expansion, that means that they have to use man power to create something and then give it away for free. because its a part of the expansion. and they don't know if it will be a succes. and because of horizontal progression the raid get cleared within a week and then the elites whine already that there is nothing new. they can't sell a pass so ppl are able to do the new raid. because ppl will be upset if you have to pay to be able to raid. they are a smart business and the ppl keep believing. this is the reason we get strikes (i think) they are small. i mean, a raid is not just bosses. but a whole map with trash mobs and achievements and all. they then just tweak extended builds by using all weapons in all specs, this looks as new content but its just cheap to keep the players happy for some time. if i look back at content we got in the last few months, it was cheap content. sure the maps where beautifull, thats their power. but what did a meta give? no loot, 50 chests at the end looks nice but if its 50 chests full of junk its not nice. there is only 1 nice loot thing and thats not buyable for the most ppl, only old barons can affort it. infusions. or ppl who convert 1000 euro from gems in gold. for that one item you wanted for years but never dropped. if you look at their earnings of this year (someone posted earlier) you can see they made billions of cash, that is because of gemstore skins. if they used their man power to create a new raid then the earnings would be much smaller because then the earnings would be most from sold copies of the game. ofc i loved the game once, but then i realised that if the game only want my money i can also play a subscription based game where loot actually drops. look at WoW, you can fish up mounts. pets (mini's) actually usedful. in gw2 it looks too much asked to even put something worth in the loot table for fishing, not even a mount or a mini. i call it greed, they just want to put that skin in the store or behind rng in a bl chest for the ppl that are addicted to gambling for even more cash. very smart move here. the fishing is just like all other meta loot drops low worth junk but then just with the icon of a fish, loot that makes nearly no money. we may not be get rich too easy, that means that we don't buy gems anymore. gems are expensive. you have to grind months (if you have a busy life) to be able to get enough gold to buy that 1 skin from the store. BUT its time limited, that means. you have to use your wallet OR ignore it. but some skins only are in the store once a YEAR. so your choice would be spend cash for sure, because you want to keep up with the hype and can't stand the show off from others. but the ppl that think real like me think its unfair. you players make anet big, and now they want you to spend even more. you dont get what you wish (content) your wallet gets abused. and ofc you can just play for fun like i did for 7 years. but there comes a time where you also have real life goals and not only spend your time in a farming simulator. and the concept of buy expansions and play free looks nice, but because everything comes to the store and not the loot tables you already know you have to pay if you want something. sure there are ppl with a good job and can affort spending on gems every month or week. but everything in the world got more and more expensive. and then you come home and want to relax and start a game. then you see a new shiny but also you see its behind a paywall or behind an rng paywall. and its only virtual. if they just put new skins on loot tables it would be already nicer to do content, but then with normal droprates, i mean. some guildy have cleared dragonstorm many times and never looted the ascended sword. i have cleared it many times and never got an aurene chest. feels bad.

I hope they all leave. And take the playerbase with them. Like asmon did with WoW. Maybe then anet learn what they have done to the game. They destroyed it with greed. Besides beautiful maps there is nothing to do then looting junk boxes after every meta. Guildwars 2 is nothing then a farming simulator for gold. And for the gold you cant buy much. That means only the ppl who spend cash are able to buy nice store items. This is no lie or hate. Its my experience and feeling. Its called an opinion. I come back every week to buy the antique summoning stones and the 4 EoD meta boxes in seitung and then immediately quit after being disappointed again with the trash loot it drops. My love for the game is gone since EoD. The greed is ridiculous. Nothing in game drops have something worth gold. That means if i want something from store that cost gems i have to spend cash on gems or grind 24/7. They forgot that normal ppl have lives and tasks to fulfil. Not everyone draw something in a program for a virtual item and sell it thousands of times because the fashion is a hype. But they are not afraid to ask the playerbase to support some charity things. They get free and easy advertisement to let the world think how great they are. While they let ppl addicted to gamle waste their money for something from a black lion chest and some times they dont even get what they want from the chest. Greedy. They dont accept the less money and sell the skin for 10 bucks. They put it behind rng. If you are unlucky you have to buy 30 keys for €1,25 each to have enough stattues to buy it later.

I would put the game in maintenance mode. Make a gold cap of 25k gold. The rest will just vanish. I would delete and erase some ppl’s accounts because they think its nice to bully others with how rich they are. And an ex guild leader who used leader power without the members be able to say something back. and stop the greed. I would increase all droprates of infusions. And put gemstore skins on loot tables of events and meta’s. And i would add a subscription to the game. I would remove gems as a currency. I would remove the overweight condition of the skyscale and let him fly normally without losing half energy bar for just a jump on a cliff. I would make griffons fly like wow flying mounts. And a report option when ppl show off too much. A 3 week ban + lose their infusion. i would make asura’s a hostile creature. i would add an option so you can use 2 helm skins compared (exzample, elfen ears + a hat) i would make story trashtalk skip able. And all forced game things should i remove. Why forcing a story before you can use old LA. i remove elitism. Adding option to use addons like WoW does. I would add an option that tp fees are scaled on how rich you are. Items can no longer be mailed to others or through a guild bank. The only option would be trading post. Because the rich players are the reason why new players have a hard time making gold. Because from barons they dont earn money because all gems are bought from gold. There is already unfairness in the real world so ingame has to be relax.

Imagine f2p guildwars 2 with advertisements showing up on screen. And advertisements on loading screens to the new map. Would be a nice feature and then making it easyer to make gold.

Thats your opinion. I took a 7 year break from wow so i have 3 expansions of skins i could get. And the best thing is. If i buy last xpack and lvl to 70 i am strong enough to solo most of those 3 expansions. Sure guildwars 2 has some nice skins. Like reqium if i spelled it right. And there is no math needed because everyone have different tastes of skins they like. sure rng can be bad. I farmed black temple back then for shaman tier 6 reskin for hunter. Took me 17 runs (17 weeks) while on warrior i got it but was useless. (Challange) now name a guildwars 2 meta where can drop a nice looking skin. Already got the back pack from echoval wilds. Or whats named. 3nd zone of EoD.

Ty. But i play game to want fun and nice loot as a reward. Depents on the game. Normally i am an fps gamer. But did more mmo because back then fps games were bad. I hate storys in (this game because forced, to difficult high learning emglish that only university ppl understand) i hate pvp (i am toxic in competitive gameplay) except wvw. Thats nice sometimes. But to have a big group you have to be lucky at the right time. Or in a wvw guild. I hate dailys. (In WoW) i am a loot goblin. In fps games i want fast paced combat. But there are many campers so i also dont play that often anymore. Storys in assassins creed are nice and short.

I once met someone that did pinata event for 2 years daily since release of pof and never looted it. I asked him about the infusion but he said he bought it from the trading post. Anet doesnt care about ppls time. This is ridiculous. These infusions are a mythe. But i also once readed someone on the forum got chak infusion with his 3 months old account. This is a big middlefinger to the person who farmed pinata for over 2 years daily. Let say you want a mount skin of 1600 gems. How many meta’s do you have to do to be able to spend 600+ gold for 1600 gems. A meta give maybe 2 or 3 gold. This is crazy. But addictive players never understand or dont want to see the reality. Or just spend cash every month for their lovely game but doesnt know the real struggle to make gold. And just make the exzample of just put gold to gems. And anet know that its hard to make gold. And if the mount is for limited time in the shop you have to ignore it. Or use your wallet. What most ppl do because they want to keep up with the fashion (hype) wars.

I just gave up already on this game. And it feels good i am relax now. If i want to make a rewarding progress for time spend i go to the gym. There i always leave with a good feeling. In guildwars 2 after every boss run i feel disappointed for time spend and bags full junk.

My biggest problem is THE LOOT. There is no loot. The only loot = super rare. So basically there is no loot. No matter what meta you do. Its wasting time. No skins nothing. Fishing is useless, no mini’s, no mount skins. In WoW you can fish up mounts. But this game is pure greed. They only want our money. ONE mount skin is already too much asked. They dont design mounts to put on fishing loot table. They only add mounts behind rng that you have to pay for. Bl chest keys. Gold or cash. This greed is crazy. Their earnings are high. But their team dont even think about design a skin for a loot table. The only loot are infusions that never drop. Its only a gold sink. And yes precursors but thats also a low droprate. The most come from the mystic forge.

Guildwars 2 is now even more rewarding for no life playing. The only option to get rich in this game (for the onces with trash rng) is playing no life grind meta’s with low silver drops (cant call this rewards) had a guildy that played with 3 accounts on a pc and 2 laptops or something, yes he was rich but did metas all day long with 3 accounts. Imo thats not relax what gaming should be. Now guildwars 2 is even more no life because the easy alt account gold income is gone. Means more ppl will spend cash on gems because they are used to swim in gold. But alt accounts got useless (ruined investment from real cash) they had many alt accounts so they didn’t have to play (no lifing) for gold. But now they have to. i think thats why there are also so many semi afk players for gold. Because playing an actual meta has the same reward. Reward/effort ratio is better when afk. Do nothing gets you the same reward as work you 455 off. Except when looting something worth gold. But thats a mythe.

We play the game to make fun. Not to gather 24/7. They know that. Ppl want to do one of those activities, wvw, pvp, fractals, open world. And not cut trees all day long. For me the tools were worth the money because i only play a few characters if not just one. But alts have the tools from living world maps that also give unbound magic. But many things are unbalanced. Fractals give alot of gold if you have skill for cm. but thinking about this all. Its just gold making everywere you go. Some activities give more gold and the gold go to upgrades or gemstore. thats why i dont like it anymore. Making gold is slow. Gem skins are expensive. 1 outfit cost €8,75. (400 gems = 5 euro) 1 bl chest key cost €1,25. i do like it more to do activities for skin drop.

This game is not really f2p. Sure you can login without any cost. But thats it. Imagine how many meta’s you have to farm before you made enough gold to buy 3 sets unlimited gathering tools.(maybe 3 gold a meta) But instead you can use real money to obtain it instant. This game is for rich ppl. I once had a guildy did web development. He said 2 hours work for 100 euro. He bought gems for 100 euro every month. But if you just only buy the game plus expansions then its a huge grind for some Qo(ingame)L items. I once bought a set for 35 euro (in a sale) if you have a sub based game you are able to get rich in many ways. Wow is just 27 euro for 60 days. As an adult thats not so much. But for 27 euro you have not so much in guildwars 2. A mount skin and a shared inventory slot maybe. As example. Thats all. and ofc i had fun in this game from 2016 till EoD. I made some gold. Some legendary’s. But it was all because my own effort grinding gold. Loot wise it was very bad. And thats one of the the reasons i dont like the game anymore. You are only able to get something if you no life grind for gold. OR USE your wallet. I hate the feeling of having to spend even more After buying the expansion. Loot is worthless. I mean, not worth enough to be able to buy something from the store. Reason 2 what made me quit is the show off from ppl on meta. With their shiny bl chest loot while i never got something worth more then 1k gold.

This is the reason guildwars 2 only has a shop. Where you can BUY skins and nearly no skins dropped. Most of the players just accept that they get nothing for their effort besides a few silver and bags with junk. And spend hundreds of dollars/euros in gems. Precursors are a very low droprate. And many aren’t worth much anymore. Guildwars 2 players dont care about microtransactions. I never looted an ascended chest in open world except tequatl because thats on his loot table. Exotics were nice long ago. Now they are not real loot imo. Because ancended gear is cheap to craft. With real loot i mean an nice skin what you would use on xmog. maybe my loot thing is not accurate. Pinata CAN drop an infusion. Sure can. I once met someone there he did pinata since release for TWO YEARS STRAIGHT daily. And never looted the infusion. Ofc it CAN drop. But these droprates are pure frustration. Yes the pinata CAN drop loot. But the drop is so low. Actually for MOST players he drops junk loot. Maybe pinata isnt an good example because its trade contracts. But instead lets say treasure mushroom. The only thing i ever got from it was the novelty. Further always junk.

I tried this as a name. But its used. Ofc.
