    You're not the only one who's noticed.  However, every time I say something it gets the devs angry at me.  Repressive tolerance is in full force on these forums, so you can only discuss these elements if you're praising them.  

    Very true.  Anyone who aggress with the current top propaganda message can post anything they want with no blow back.  Meanwhile, if you post anything against it you get silenced by either bans or forced rewrite of a mod.

    As the game gets older everything starts to cost more and more gold, who remembers when gems were 50g for 400 well me and that was before the game went f2p, the collections cost alot of gold for example look at dragon slayer collections. My point is simple the ingame inflation went up but we are not rewarded more they should increase the rewards we get for example to 5g for completing daily achievements.

    I will settle for nothing less than 15g an hour minimum wage.

    Lol... if you think that way, then the entire game is a form of indoctrination with the perspectives written in it and you should never expose kids to any form of media ever. Notice how no one ever says this kind of nonsense about a game where you go around killing people to level up

    People do say this about games and have been for years.  They are often mocked and ridiculed for their beliefs. 

    Ironic that people who throw stones at others beliefs then demand that their own be forced on everyone by law.   Completely validating the original claim they attacked others on.

    it's REALLY gross, how warrior gets the most weapon yet can't even have a decent weapon combo. you have to choose between mobility or damage or CC for main hand weapon(sword/axe/mace). like what.....you can only do one thing.

    The entire game was suppose to be designed as such.  Boons included.  Shortly after launch they changed directions and went back on everything they promised.  "Short term powerful boons!"  The game has been a joke since the core Guild Wars 1 devs left.

    This is stupid. Even for the warrior forum.

    Careful, I got banned for a few days for telling someone my posts require some reading comprehension.  But I assume the people on the Warrior sub forums have thicker skin due to the treatment of the class they play, so you may be safe from the reports.

    More importantly: why are they wasting resources keeping GW1 on, instead of shutting it for good?

    Because it is the better game of the two and it requires minimal upkeep compared to the monstrosity that is Guild Wars 2.

     I'm running a bladesworn on my first run through and some veterans actually survived a fully charged dragonslash. 

    There are people who still play Warrior unironically?  Just because they are rehashing season 1 doesn't mean the balance is going back to that point as well.

  8. The entire story arc leading up to, and all the way through, PoF.  Absolutely trash.  If it were Menzies I would understand, but turning Balthazar is just stupid. 

    Guild Wars 1 Prophecies was outstanding.  Factions was above average/average.  Nightfall was poor and EotN was above average. 

    Guild Wars 2 lore team has constantly churned out below average work.  Perhaps if they stopped focusing on social propaganda and focused on the lore it would be better.

    Isn't that for sunspear points though?

    I'll take a look. Thanks.

    It can be used for either.  It is far less tedious and boring than the other methods and not much slower.  You may spend an extra 2 hours total on the missions if you are efficient than if you continuously ran the same quest over and over.  You won't trip the anti-farm code either.

    There is no "textbook definition of Stockholm syndrome," it's not in DSM or any other diagnostic manual.

    Pistol is best if you want to upkeep Fierce as Fire stacks and Guns and Glory buff, which you should if your aim is dps build. Pistol 5 at max stacks has also decent melee burst damage. Skills on pistol fit the fast paced rotation very well.

    A bit offtopic but idk where to put it:

    I despised bladesworn at first, I tried it during beta and twice after EoD release and still hated it. But after 3rd try (like week ago, after few weeks of break) I started to really like it (PvE) and now I don't even want to play Berserker anymore (at least for now). It's new, it's different and it's not bad at all (in PvE that is).

    Just accept that Bladesworn isn't what probably most of us wanted and move on. The spec fits lore well (which was most likely very important during its developement) and it's just missing things like stow ability and so.

    Also, I don't even consider the spec to be weeb-y anymore, so I'm happy 🙂

    I hate to tell you, that is near textbox definition of Stockholm syndrome.

    GW2 original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gay1Cn2o4i8 - Strong, haunting, memorable

    Heart of Thorns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtvnP91PDfQ - Upbeat, adventurous, full of energy

    ...Then came Path of Fire.

    Path of Fire has been my favourite expansion so far, but the main theme was noticeably more forgettable than the previous two: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6dCOmAl8tg

    And now, in EoD? Meh...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05GVi24RbUo

     

     

    I wish there were an option to pick which music to select. The current one is not on par with the rest.

    The part where it gets sketchy is that literally any 3rd party tool you use to make life easier in a game gives you an advantage, you wouldn't bother using such things if it did not, and if someone uses one third party tool there is an high likelyhood that they will start using more.

    Generally you would want zero tolerance on 3rd party tools because it becomes a sort of arms race to see what people can get away with without triggering action.

    None of that is evidence they do or don't have a certain number of players. 

    "Lack of players in the game is not evidence that no one plays the game"

    I am sure the same argument was used for Aeonsoft & nFlavor when FlyFF shut down their server and sold out to Gala.  The lack of deductive reasoning and the out right refusal to look at logic is astounding.  It has only gotten worse over the years.

    Anets definition of diversity is stripping the game of choices…it’s funny because the definition of diversity actually means “differences” and “variety”

     

    standardization (homogenization) and NOT giving choices is the complete opposite of diversity and people should have realized that they have no idea what they are doing based on that contradiction. 

    People do realize these contradiction and call it out.  However, they are quickly swept under the rug on this forum for a variety of reason.  The original forums let these types of conversion flourish while these new forums quickly quash dissenting  or negative views.

    It's not the special that I'm going to change, it's the class, because it's getting worse and worse for a class that I had a crush on and that gets demolished with each patch...

    You should ask Warrior mains from launch how they feel about their class.  People still say Warrior is fine while others go further and say it is in a good spot.  Warrior has been trash for a very long time.  It is only included in content for banners while a Revenant could easily out dps them with sword auto attacks. 

    But I do agree, Revenant is heading down the same road as Warrior.

    OK, so to remove any confusion and hopefully conclude this post, I will explain what I understand from this matter because I am technically a new player.

    The wiki says this:

    Currently, an account can have a maximum of 25 shared slots:

    My uncertainty:

    - If you have a basic account and buy the big bundle (all 3 expansions), you will receive 1 or 2 shared slots? Probably 1 as advertised?

    - If you buy all expansions separately, you will receive 3 shared slots from them?

    - If you get only 1 or 2 slots from the three expansion bundle, will you be locked forever from maximizing the shared slots? Or can you still buy the missing ones with gems to reach the total of 25?

     

    If this is true and you can no longer buy the expansion related slots with gems, then people like me that intend to buy the whole bundle, will forever have their account limited to 23-24 maximum slots. That is where my problem is, I wouldn't mind to buy them separately if I could, but from what I understand that is not possible.

    Thank you all for helping out.

    Don't worry about the trolls.  It is only logical to want to know what you are spending money on and whether there are differences in how you can spend the money.

    Going from their ad you will only receive 1 of the shared inventory slots buying the "Collection Ultimate" that includes Path of Fire and Heart of Thorns. That means you miss 2 potential shared inventory slots.

    To your question about applying keys once the collection is bought, I know for a fact if you buy a base game you can come back later and add a key for the "Deluxe" version.  The same was true for Guild Wars 1. 

    My initial assumption would be you could apply a plain key later and receive the shared inventory slot.  However, I would error on the side of caution and buy HoT first and apply it to the account.   Then buy PoF and apply it for the 2 shared inventory slots.  Then get the "Collection Ultimate" if you want. 

    Either way, you will be buying  HoT, PoF and "Collection Ultimate".

    they lost their core team that made gw2 didnt they?

    The original team that made Guild Wars Utopia/Guild Wars 2 all left after leadership lied and backtracked on the game design and philosophy.  It started before Guild Wars 2 launch and lasted till slightly after.  It has been a slow trickle out the door since then.

     

    I did pre-order the expansion but these betas have left me wondering why.  At this point I am almost rooting for this expansion to be the final nail.
