[Ideas for fixing raid]

@"LordMorgul.9845" said:1 - no time2 - fix damage system to avoid rotations3 - TIERS4 - Story Mode5 - Make Anet Guides by Dev to how to do a raid, (wiki is not helpfull and is ilarius how the game got tons of specs but is closed to 3-4 setups and all guides are for elitis and speedrun not common playerbase)6 - Make legy weapon and armor more powerfull or make stat encreased on mastery base like 1% = 1 mastery7 - cm still activable on choice8 - for speed clear run and elitis made some record table so they proper enjoy theyrself whit weakly reward for the first 5 team some like "clear time" "damage dealt" or someting like that

so those are my point list to improve raids and make those enjoinable by all kind of players, so now can we argue about those point make your pov about and make Anet fix the situation

So basicly bring mm and let its minions kill boss for you

[spears and scyths for land combat are long overdue]

The weps is gonna be pistol pistol rifle for all classes and engi gets a mace

[Anyone else who still uses the Spirits?]

Ranger in wvw is limited reason spirits isnt used un zerg is spirits are fragile and rangers aoe is not great and aswell you arent helping playing a skirmisher in a zerg

[Raids for not so good players]

Before raids there was toxic dungeons. Raids failure is mainly due to most gw 2 players arent hard core or really bother that much in what gear they use they are there for open world and story and to relax. Gw 2 is a game wich does poor job of telling you where you failed in a fight hell i know alot of ppl who dont even know what theit skills do and picked them for their name or animation seemed cool. Raids has a high skill and mechanics you must fill so its not as open to play whatever so meta happend but meta was in dungeons aswell meta builds are not for new raiders as you need to understand how to use it but game dont really say much if you actually your job or not

[We still cannot progress in story - or is it a bug?]

Specially how low rewarding event feels like

[Do public strike missions ever happen?]

Reason public is so empty alot of time is due to aloy of ppl dont know the encounter or expect someone else to do mech (no joke you will most likely get 1-2 who will auto attack not blaming them for its hard to do mechs) boneskinner yeah its a buggy fight most ppl want to avoid for its hard same with whisper)

[no quarter story shoulder to shoulder stuck]

i tried to do shoulder to sholder and its stuck at listen to the next orders from krecia after map closed suddenly and now it wont progress

[[Spoiler] Jormag's true intention]

Jormag unlike other dragons . If you think of it caithe is acting as a mouth of aurene , commander is aurenes eyes and ears and champion. As aurene has shown to be able to see what we do. Also jormag has much more interaction but isnt exactly dominating its servants. So yes jormags corruption directly from jormag is more akin to aurenes link or blessing as choice is involved problem is its servants are zealots and was so before jormag did anything so they will spread the corruption in anyway as their belief is such. They even defied orders without repurcussions for jormags goal isnt domination but more into
Relation jormag if you noticed rarely striked first its servants like drakkar can act without jormag saying for isnt it strange that jotmag is so close to the lost spirits dont directly feed on them but let drakkar do it. Not all elders are the same jormag also shown to be very reclusive like we did not see much of jormag precense and thr fact only one minion had traits of otherDragon spectrum can be that jormag had atleast some knowledge of the danger of overfeeding so no i dont think jormag is good in a way aurene is but jormags actions are less agressive than most old eds and the fact we only kniw prim and jormag has fighted and that primordius dislike the idea of life and made destroyers to mock it. Jormag also seems to be into making deals i got the feeling one of those backfired and thats why jormag got us for its strange that ryland did not hear whispers but everyone else did wich can be a hint they already made a deal before and keep appearances. So yeah my theory is jormag made a deal wich was in rylands favor wich could explain ryland not hearing whispers during fs as he already been convinced . Most other dragon minions has sentience and sense of self most of are rabid then left alone or follow the will of its dragon . Another thing could be jormag dont want to die or see cycle repeat as jormag is quite a talker . Can also be a sign that jormags weakness comes from that jormag dont eat as much magic and might be more sane. As it has shown that eds goes insane then eating to much magic

[AFK MM's camping out in NE Kourna]

Onlu place i did not have a issue with afk farmers was bitterfrost as theh made harvesting berries so much easier

[[Spoiler] Jormag's true intention]

Jormags nature is opposed to destruction tho as it us the elder dragon of ice and persuasion how can jormag. And the fact primordius is hostile to most life . So i guess out of the ed s jormag is the least hostile

[Is there a better way for ArenaNet than abandoning old content to focus on new content?]

Strikes and raids are abandoned already as those like dungeons(who also was picky in lfgs needing ap, specific classes.) Fractals seems to be the only end game content wich gets constant updates and is played more most ppl only do icebrood construct,fraenir and kodan strikes as boneskinner and whispers is not friendly towards the casual player. I rather see anet look where most players actually play and spend more on that more as its most logical

[Please stop asking LI for strike missions]

Boneskinner and whisper is due to they are not easy bosses (wich anet should fix)

[Can we get a Black Commander Tag Please?!!]

@Ayakaru.6583 said:I'd rather have some commander chat functions, first.Mentors have an apple icon in front of their name in the chat, but commanders do not.When you're organizing a big map event, often with multiple commanders, you can't tell when the commander's talking

Its probly for commander tag is for wvw mainly

[WE NEED: Raid Reward Tracks]

Raids could be reworked to function like open world bosses . But atm raids looks like it will go the same way as dungeons

[Call of Valor (Warhorn Skill 5) Barrier based off Toughness instead of Healing?]

Its mostly due to barrier in general scales with healing power. And its barrier is quite high for a weapon skill

[Keep Legendary Weapon draw/swing/footfall effects while transmuted to another weapon]

Just remove the effects entirely from the game they arent worth the lagg and fps loss they cause

@lare.5129 said:ok, if not li- what should we ask ? Dhumm tokens ?

Nothing simply nothing its why anet did not add kp for strikes

[What about a story and easy mode for the Raids?]

@Astralporing.1957 said:

@battledrone.8315 said:they should never had made raids in the first place.Maybe, but they did, and it's not possible to turn back the clock on this.They could always abandon raids. Like they abandoned dungeons. However, I doubt that would happen unless they abandon raids for strikes.

Havent they already done that but strikes is problu gonna end like dungeons and raids

[What about a story and easy mode for the Raids?]

Strikes is honestly a failure they made boneskinner and whisper, franir and koda impossibly hard

@Asgaeroth.6427 said:It's the same circular argument for 5 years. I say my opinion, and 30 raiders hand wave it with the specific things I said don't work for me as hand waves. It's not just as simple as don't join hardcore groups or make your own casual group. Virtually every group requires specific builds, so joining "like minded" groups isn't a good option. The content very much isn't tuned for "chill groups" so listing also isn't a good option. If it even fills in a reasonable time frame, you're still just looking at endless wipe misery and rage quits. A good 90% of GW2 players are stuck in this blind spot that the raiders can't see. There's so many little things that the raiding community sees as routine that very much are not, and they feel that criticism of raiding is only at the smaller subset of things that they see as challenging. No one is asking you to change your perspective, I just want other perspectives to be considered. The game would be a lot better for it. You're not seeing the bigger picture of why it doesn't work for so many people. Anything you can say about why I am wrong and raids are fine I've tried to make it work, and 20 more things you haven't thought of on top of it. The solution I want is to sequester the current raiding culture away in it's own LFG section like the vile hive of 15 acronym party names and rage fueled GAMERS that run them that is T4 fractals, and give us people who don't like engaging with that access to the content after 5 years waiting. You're not going to sway me from wanting that.

There was a guy in gw2 facebook who made an guild for ppl that arw new to raids and wants to play off meta builds. Sorry i cannot give more details as my memory is a bit pepega.

It's just not what I am talking about at all. There are fundamental problems with the raiding experience that can not be solved with the "just do X thing and it is fine". It is not helpful in any way to say go scour Facebook if you want to wear soldier armor in raid. That's not how I play anyway, and is not the issue that prevents me from enjoying raids. It's the day in day out 24/7/365 oppression of raiding culture that is the problem. I don't want to play with people who adhere to the stupidity that is going on in raid LFG. The main reason it exists in the state that it does is because if you don't have the correct builds in the current base line raid difficulty, you just are not going to get anywhere with it. Those "chill groups" of "like minded players" are a big frustrating mess pretty much every time. That horrible experience mostly doesn't exist because you can sit and watch raid LFG for a week and not see a non-elitist group listed, because people try that once and then uninstall the game.

If you don't mesh well with the efficiency culture that the current raids are exclusively catered to, you have three options: buy them from some RMTer, ignore them entirely, or grit your teeth and fake your way to whatever thing you need out of it and then ignore them entirely. Where is the healthy enjoyable long game in there? It just is not how it should be. The only public facing raid LFG channel with any activity is 95% RMTers farming their gold back and 5% strings of build acronyms. This is not a hard thing to solve, but all these raid discussions ever are are people demanding useless symptom whack-a-mole for a disease with a trivial cure.

What i say play how you want i like wearing soldier mixed with nomad amor and play dps it shouldnt be anyone else problem what i play in raids but issue is its some bosses do require high dmg and builds working a certain way this was an issue before raids in dungeons where it was before hot no ranger no necro zerker gear scholar req in lfg
