The conditions for calling someone a "veteran" seem a bit arbitrary/harsh as maybe someone who greatly exceeds most requirements suddenly can't get it because they don't play PvP for example. Also, the rewards seem like they would be too easy to get. 1,000 random events isn't too hard on some maps to get something that should be silly rare like a Permanent Contract.

It's a daily (the only time I run them) -
I don't think the costume brawl skills were ever meant to be balanced. They are just silly toys to pass the time while sitting around in town talking to friends. If you really want to have fun with the toys then stick with friends and/or guildies and have your own little costume tournament.

Fixed locations might be nice. I'd also love a portrait feature on the login screen where you can see all of your characters standing together for a group picture. Asura in the front to Norn in the back. Smile!

@Illconceived Was Na.9781 said:No, it's not a shortcoming of the friend's list. I use the guild chat feature frequently for more than 5 different groups of people.That would be a good feature to go along with an improved Friend's List, custom chat groups. I think of a Guild as a large assortment of people who band together for common goals. Thousands of 5-man groups occasionally doing activities together doesn't fit my (and a lot of peoples/games) vision of guilds. But to each their own.

As others have brought up, this seems like more of a Friend's List shortcoming than a need for more guild slots. The Friend's List should allow Nicknames and Notes to be added for each friend. It should allow the creation of any number of categories and allow you to place friends in as many categories as you need.

Yeah, an 80 Veteran is still a lot beefier than an 81 or 82 regular mob. It's a nice way of having that in-between scaling without every large event being only Vets and up.

In the future I feel any big graphical change that is optional should default to being off. I was disturbed when I logged in for the first time to find everything different than how I remembered (and wanted). If people want to use it they should have to turn it on themselves.

I don't understand the changing part of the wording. Buying the Unbreakable Gathering Tools just gives you an account bound set of gathering tools that can be used an unlimited number of times. You'll have to swap them via the bank or shared bag slots to move them from character to character.

Cantha yes, lots of underwater areas no.
There's a reason that in old video games people would come to a water level and immediately groan. They were often the most difficult or irritating part of any game made. There's just something about them that is a giant turn off. I know there's always a few people that will enjoy them but for the most part people scream, hiss, and throw religious objects when they are confronted with water levels.

There is an announcement above that explains Anet's stance on macros.

I found exploring the Ruptured Heart to be the most troublesome. After Springing my way inside...there were so many mobs in there it was very difficult to kill enough of them to be able to re-mount and find a way back out. Ultimately I end up resorting to cheap tactics like relogging which removes aggro.

I think Mastery Points like this add a little flavor to the game. Walk up ones are fine and all but quite dull.
Also, the obligatory...
No soup for you!

I cheesed it with my necro minions. They ran over and attacked it at beyond max range and it became confused and just kind of wondered around until it died.

To make better jumping puzzles Anet need only turn to Super Mario Maker. All jumping puzzles should have the following:
Invisible blocks to send you falling to your death when attempting a jump.Portals that drop you into a lava pit.Other portals that send you right back to the beginning of the jumping puzzle (with an included laugh track).A maze full of so many spikes that you die if you're even a pixel off-center.A pit where your only escape is to map out to the nearest waypoint.A boss fight that includes a Centaur stacked on top of a Dredge stacked on top of an Ettin stacked on top of a Grawl stacked on top of a Quaggan stacked on top of a Skritt.

I think a lot of game developers assume their player-base has played a lot of games and just kind of instinctively know how to do/find certain things. It's probably hard for a developer or frequent gamer to even think of certain things that new gamers might not automatically know.

You can use the new character to park at a chest or gathering area to save time.
Horse Mounts Discussion!
in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Posted
I'm sure there have probably been several horse threads by now. Personally, I don't see how a horse mount fits into the game at all given the distinct lack of horses in Tyria. Each mount does something unique and anything that a horse can do we can already do in game. A horse skin of something, sure, but there's no need for a separate mount.
