I don't play much WvW and can't comment on a lot of the other issues or how prevalent cheating is, but to make you aware of one thing I have heard, a guy I know uses a perma/near perma stealth thief and just follows a random roamer around ressing them every time they get downed, often resulting in the roamer being yelling at/reported for hacking. So whilst a lot of these things may be a problem, someone seemingly ressing themselves is not necessarily cheating.

Something about renown hearts...
Emberfoot.6847 replied to Yunnadel.8296's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I have done a hell of a lot of map clears, and whilst I understand the whole "I did it so why shouldn't you" mentality, my fave hearts are still the ones where you can just buy your way to completion. Either because you can pay a couple of silver and carry on with your life, or because the items are now worth so much that I full the heart by gathering the items and then selling them to speed runners. I think a nice option could be to have that sort of option for every heart, so you can pay other players to fill a heart for you, or at least make a bit selling others yours. -
What do you want for third expansion? - [Merged]
Emberfoot.6847 replied to Tiale.2430's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
What do I want? Same as I always want Pinky, 90/91 char slots cap. What do I want that I am vaguely likely to get? New faces, hairs, armours and elite specs. -
Am I the only 1 who loves underwater combat?
Emberfoot.6847 replied to Seb De Tyra.3421's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I just did the blood shark aforementioned, and I have to say it reminded me of my two major gripes: we aren't able to have builds that work underwater as well as they do on land, and, hoo boy, that "SWIM TO THE SURFACE!!!" prompt when downed had people swimming away from resses left right centre, you name it. Apart from those two things I quite enjoy it. -
I use the "I hear they're delicious" line from CoF p2 way too much.

Why are skyscale skins in a separate pack?
Emberfoot.6847 replied to ROMANG.1903's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
^This. ANet recently released a set of mount adoption licenses, barely 2 months ago by now. So they would either have to introduce yet another set, for all mounts. Or they could release a Skyscale only set so people have more options to choose from until the next mount adoption license comes out, which will more than likely contain Skyscale skins as well. Makes perfect sense, to be honest, and I expected them to go this route for the first set of Skyscale skins. They didn't do it with the Roller Beetle because there weren't that many mount skins released yet (only 2 sets were released by then), and a new set was already planned (it was released a month after the Roller Beetle was introduced). Right now we have 5 sets, and the next one is not likely to be released before the summer is over. This is just so people don't have to wait so long for new Skyscale skins. As @Haleydawn.3764 and @TheNecrosanct.4028 both stated, this is a catch up bundle for those that have obtained the Skyscale and in all honesty if anyone would just put a minimum of thought into it before commenting you'd see it makes complete sense to do it this way(especially since we just had older sets on sale within the last 2 months). I have to say I disagree for one small reason: they added a branded skin in. This means my previously complete set of branded mounts for 1600gems will now cost me another 2000 for one more. @VDAC.2137 said: To me, that only makes sense for those who like to collect a lot of mount skins. I only buy premium skins I really like, mount selects and the occasional mount RNG license on sale. I only have 1-3 skins for each mount, so you can see that a pack like this does not appeal to players such as myself. If all mount skins were available individually (packs are a discount if you want the whole set) or were tradeable (I’d buy this for the skins I like and knowing I’d be able to get a nice chunk of gold for the branded skin that so many others want, for instance), then I think everyone would be reasonably happy. Consider this, what if you have more than 5 characters, or more than 10...I would think that a lot of people with multiple characters would like multiple skins for their mounts so that each character can have unique mount skins.I have capped on chars on the acct and still think its a bit of a rip. -
Meanwhile those of us who like JPs didn't get a single sensible one in all of the last LS.

Some people (myself included) have depression or other things that make real life actually quite sucky, so it is nice to be able to have a good escape.

Would you like to play Season 1 again?

I miss the boss fights but not all the filler content there was, so idk how best to vote :D -

Emberfoot.6847 replied to ROMANG.1903's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I don't mind for most of them, but the branded one? That stings. -
I doubt very much there are 13 million players. Accounts maybe, but some people like me have ten ?I do agree that more lore would be nice, but in all honesty Anet's strong point is NOT PvP. I'd def rather they focused on good story /lore/maps etc.
-
As everyone has summed up really, I understand it is quite a niche request, but a cap increase to 90+ would generate income for Anet for very little expenditure, so as far as I can see, winwin.
-
Mainly I love to fashion on them, they are all totally individual and I love them all, but also mapping/story/resources. For example, when dragonfall launched I camped an alt at every bridge for easy cheev, and mapped it on about 50 for currency.
-
I have considered this, but by the time I finish the world on them I get really attached lol. May have to tho if ANet won't let us buy more :(Edit: just to add, my original plan was to map one of every race/profession/sex combo, so atm I am working on my alt acct, but as I said originally, without griffon, endless tools, skyscale, dismount skills, perma kits, and you name what else, it is way less fun.
-
Haha a slot cap increase would do me :P
-
Yea I have mapped 71, My cap is 70.
-
Hey, I was wondering if we have had any word from ANet on whether we will ever get a slot cap increase. I have been at cap since PoF launched, have mapped every single character, and want to do more. Thing is, my alt acct sucks because it doesn't have all the QoL purchases and skins unlocked. Any ideas if/when we will be able to? Thanks :)

Mystic Forge event ... more hyjinx?
Emberfoot.6847 replied to Adzekul.3104's topic in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website
Maybe they adjusted the quantity needed after it started which gave the appearance that it stalled? IDK about that, it doesn't seem to be moving still to me. It flashes then doesn't progress. -
