Opal.9324

If you're a charr, the boat man says something about having pet cats.

None of the new specs really caught my interest, so I'm sticking with HoT and PoF specs for now. Luckily I like my current builds quite a bit, so this hasn't stopped me from enjoying the rest of the expansion.

I didn't even know WvW had rules. I just run around and kill stuff.

I sent in a ticket and they fixed it for me. Really hoping it stays fixed.

Committed Collector. That's actually pretty fitting, considering how much I love to collect old valuable junk.

I'm also unable to buy gems, but I really want the new skyscale skin. Surely it can't be a problem with my bank because I literally just spent money on another game a few minutes ago without issue. Really hoping this gets figured out while that skin is still available because if I miss out on it I'm gonna be pretty salty.

I would love to see this, or at least some skins like the dreadnought raptor for the other mounts. Sure would be nice to not look ridiculous whenever I need to get somewhere.

not cowards but no lifer :p Why not both?

As someone who also has some trouble with expressing emotions at times, I never really minded the way he talks. Trahearne wasn't perfect, but he gets way more hate than he deserves.

Maybe the unskilled players should practice until they become skilled? People aren't just born good at things. All those amazing players you meet have probably been playing and improving their skills for a long time. Of course, if someone just keeps telling themself "I'm unskilled because that's just who I am", they will probably never get better. That's a very tropey response. I'm sure I've seen it a hundred times or more. Doubtless, it's easy for people to type because they know there are lots of people who agree that skill SHOULD dominate. There's a certain, twisted logic to that thought pattern.... but it's boring.Unskilled players can be unskilled because of circumstances;DisabilityAge - it's known that old folks lose their twitchiness. Time - some people have real lives, and CAN'T dedicate the time to the game that they'd like to. That's not to say that every unskilled player fits into one of these categories, some just don't care about how well they do, but the gap between skilled and unskilled in GW2 is such that even a slightly less skilled player can NEVER EVER beat someone better than them. That's poor design.I have a real life (well, HAD before a certain pandemic showed up), and I like to think I'm at least somewhat decent. I'm also not very "twitchy" most of the time, but there are builds out there that don't require that, and not being twitchy doesn't necessarily make you unskilled. But if not skill, what should determine who wins? Pretty much anything that involves 2 or more people competing is going to have skill involved, unless you make it based on something like RNG or who has the most OP cheese build. Neither of those sound like much fun to me.

If they can't make these dyable, I hope that some day they release another necro-y set of wings that is. I wanted to get the skeletal wings, but the green was too bright for me.

They're everything I wanted too. Unfortunately my luck is almost nonexistent when it comes to RNG, and I'm not in a situation where I can afford to blow a bunch of money on keys.

I could have sworn this thread was on the first or second page when I posted on it. What the kitten?

Whenever you are downed, your character goes on a rant about how it's all the younger generations' fault.

To the OP, I'm gonna have to agree with the people saying that gear is fine as it is now. I often test out new builds in exotics before fully gearing them up in ascended, and the difference isn't even noticeable 99% of the time. I have a character who was hit pretty hard by recent-ish balance changes, and he was bad no matter how good his gear was until I made some more tweaks to his build. Maybe you just need to play around with your build a bit more?

Not sure if I lost anything because I don't really keep track of all the junk I sell. I didn't get anything, so I'm guessing I didn't. Oh well. Hopefully I'll lose some gold next time a rollback happens. :p

"My favorite class has tons of viable builds, so everyone else should just stop complaining."

I'm almost tempted to get the outfit just because of how goofy it looks on charr. It would be a great way to make my terrible joke character even more obnoxious looking. :p The back piece and glider look pretty cool though.

WvW maps are way too small for the mounts' old speed imo. Kind of takes away the point of killing your enemies when they can just keep zooming back over like nothing happened.

I main 2 classes, so I'll just keep doing what I've been doing and play my necro mostly. Might try out scourge just for the kitten of it. I'm really starting to miss my war, though.

Warrior has been one of my favorite classes since I joined GW2, and now I'm somehow doing better on classes I'm a complete noob at than I am on a class I've played for years. Are you really comparing it with other professions, or do you just want easy kills?

Dang... I was actually starting to enjoy zerging again. Necro has always been one of my favorite classes, but I still hated those red circle blobs. Makes playing a melee build in a zerg extremely unpleasant. And if that new blood magic trait really is aoe, oof.

I'd really like to have a Tengu, but if it's just a tonic I probably won't bother. Not worth giving up character customization.

I hope they at least add a few more armor pieces like that. I love the helm, but finding a look that matches it when it's the only piece that shines like that is a pain.
