i dont only want the raid set. i want all sets to be unique so i can collect all 3 - just like leg back packs!!! eidt: worthy enough to collect because they are purdy and not poohey

raids as always is most loved game mode and gets the best gear. they should have balanced this and gave each mode unique gear, but prolly after the first child they could care less about making new things for other ones. they should just duped raid gear for pvp and wvw. instead pvp and wvw look like pooh comparably. I only bothered to make legendary chest for wvw since the rest looks like pooh.

yes, get rid of more then 3 tabs to craft 1 item. i'd pref 1 list and craft to make not make theis b4 that and b4 that make this and b4 this make that yada yada yada bs.

it prolly is but honestly why did they even roll this system out. So many flaws. It seems like they originally meant to be able to fully decorate the whole hall then sometime later discovered oopsies... "um well let's just give em what we got so far." guild halls are like if they gave us mounts that could only walk everywhere.

I think the sad reality is though anet needs an intanced decoration housing solo player system. then all these micro transactions would make more sense for ownership. plus instead of revamping scribing you add a new system, call it something else so the rules for it are different. it should be a massive end game content feature to any future xpac or LW similar to fashion wars. Primarily game content acquired - play the game earn stuff. but obviously some stuff could be gem store purchased. While i'm sure they'd do it in a way that i would hate, i think more newer players would enjoy it. uh oh did i just encourage them? unlikely they never listen to me.

if we could rotate objects on the xyz axis some of those boring static decs would be great, but i know they aren't thinking that way when they design them. 😞 No no no don't encourage them to steal our money. things that come with xpacs should come with xpacs and not be removed from them to be turned into micro transactions. i haven't bought garden plots, infact i've spent less in the gem store then years past, if they do this they are basically pushing people away from the game.

there is a housing system in gw2, its just not the housing system decorators seem to want. even if they added decorating to personal instances that wouldn't go far enough. too little too late imo. those instances are already decorated. you would need to add new locations for people to decorate in. some houses, some land plots for people to use blue prints or just liek in guild halls build from scratch. But the obvious limitations with the current system hinders that idea. not being able to place many objects close together before hitting a space cap is a major problem. Good luck on building a house from scratch 😞 not to mention rotation on the xyz axis and other things mentioned for many years that have yet to be fixed. I also think scaling is an issue on how they've designed their interiors, i don't think its all uniform. Like some of the houses that aren't meant to be lived in that you can access i don't think are scaled properly or maybe its the added difficulty of norn- asura sizes. It would be great if some of the buildings ingame became livable instant homes! just plop an interactive door on them and tada! 🙂

yea we all know they gave up on guild halls about a year after they released them 😞 but its still causes me a huge amount of pain that they totally don't seem to care to do anything substantial with guild halls. when it has so much potential still. They see it as a HoT thing and that xpac is over so.... "we do nothing".

1) i think we got 2 decorations with EoD 1 craftable giant stone statue head and 1 purchaseable jade bot switcherro. but yea basically nothing. 😄 i've finally given up on anet doing anything major to fix scribbing or adding our eod 10-30ish cantha decs we never got like with other xpacs. i've moved on. i'll give my monies to other places instead. 2) i realize the only way to get something from anet is to ask for it in the gemstore (garden plots), but really don't be like wow with things you should have gotten with the xpac itself but instead screw us over more and make us pay for it again thru mircotransactions. /faceplam 3) is what they should have done with the cantha xpac/ overhaul scribbing system - make a housing system... maybe next xpac???? yea prolly not 😞 those recipes could be collected from old maps(bring life to older maps), but i think that's something old anet didn't like to do. These recipes could vary from common to rare drops and sold on tp so those who could care less about decorating could also profit from it. You have to mix it into th e whole system so it's not just one thing. IT is obviously endgame content. I wuish there was an achievement for speending 100 hours in the guild hall (not afk) but decorating or moving around (pvp arena) i bet there isn't a way to track that currently if they were to make it and everyone that's spent years already in their halls would immedately get it and a cool item/clothing weapon skins like from raids 😄 i currently get nothing, other then joy for spending hours in the guild hall instead of farming gold 😞 and then we get rewarded with basically no new cantha decorations. just wonderful anet....

personally i'd love to see an alt tp system like a "black market" maybe based around rep, to use? and or the thingy you chose waaay at the beginning "vigil", or one of the other two that serves pretty much no function now. and you couldn't use the others blackmartket without switching and re-grinding the rep(or you'd have to grind it on 3 toons if its soul and not account bound.) It could be interesting if there was a no taxes policy for different orders: Vigil, priory, whispers . Vigil no taxes on crafted armor sales Priory no taxes of crafted runes, sigils, or scribe books or scribe things you can sell Whispers no taxes on crafted weapons to sale these are just ideas of course maybe something more commonly traded on the tp would apply. I mean even just having trades be a thing instead of selling on tp. u grind the rep to use the black market and u can trade yer merch to other players with the black market (to avoid tp tax) rep as well, but maybe trades are limited daily- like ascended crafting or weekly. just some ideas. Of course vigil,priory,whispers were more related to elder dragons so maybe an entirely new rep could happen for a future xpac.-. of course rep grind is only there to limit peoples use so you would still primarily use the tp- so they have to choose. And it could also be a system more like ESO but i understand not wanting to become like Wow in regards to ripping off other game companies designs. but i know its hard to think up something new and they've put effort into their TP economy so they prolly dont wanna mess that much with it.

So its 50 key drops from(yea i read it wrong above) events (which is basically 1 meta a day) and you can buy 50 keys from the vendor (ok maybe 2 metas), but after you collect and use 100 keys you're forced to leave the map and go play somewhere else? that seems really odd.

Yea you can buy 50 keycards from the vendor per day. It doesn't explain why you don't get them as drops from doing events like how you can get shovels in silverwastes from doing events all day long. So yea its odd. something feel off here.

From what i can tell from running this on 4 toons (over 2 days) it seems to be you can only run 1 meta a day to get keycard drops from events. After that you have to buy them. But its a lot of mats/ more so gold wasted to buy keycards to open containers that have worse loot then you spent on the keycards. 😞 After reset my1st time thru on my engi i got drops from events in the 1st meta. The map reset and i started again. The first event i did i got keycard drops from, after that keycard drops stopped from any further events i did. So i switched toons. On my necro I got ZERO keycard drops from doing events. Things i discovered: 1)There are waaaaaay more chests then you get in keycard drops* * maybe there is some specific farm route with a meta zerg to hit all these events and get many more keys??? 2)the loot from chests is worse then the mats required to buy keycards in the first place 3)Feels like a bad material/gold sink where the house always wins! Now maybe things are bugged or aren't working as intended, i don't know, but something feels off here. >>>but it' probably working as intended since there is a vendor where you can buy keycards from. This just feels like a ((odd)) way to clear your inventory of materials. I also can't seem to get anyone else to care about/discuss this in map so i'm not sure what is really going on.

yea its like getting silverwastes shovels when doing events only here you don't get any shovels at all. which is odd if its a daily one meta a day cap since after every event there are a slew of chests you can't open.

Gyala Delve Map I'm not getting any keys or "Jade Miner's Keycards" from completing events like you normally do with other currencies. I was there from start of big events to then end damaging mobs and champs and got nothing. YOu can buy them from vendors but seems odd you don't get any as drops also. I believe i got some the first map instance i was in then switched and now it isn't working. I've switched instances several times since. I even logged completely out and back in and did an event and still nothing.

please stop spamming me those black lion requisition emails every time i change maps. i'm not sure this is "working as intended" or an oopsy. but it is definitely annoying. 😞 ingame mail spammers https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52717951281_5839ee8556_b.jpg (hopefully one of these example image links work)

Kodans are cousins of the Norn. Norn are just stuck in "human" form most of the time. 🙂 A human once bit a norn pup and that disease transferred down their bloodline and now they look humanish kinda like what happened to Klingons in TOS. 😄 😄 😄

if would be a wonderful expansion! If they did it oldskool like and not PoF or Cantha like. 😄

They designed the game! Why did they keep adding ways to have higher and higher magic find if it was a problem? Capping it at 750 when vet players routinely could get over 1000 magic find seems like another attempt at watering down this feature! They already removed magic find gear, they watered down the drop rates of items now they are watering down magic find by lowering the max cap! Seems like they are going to eventually remove magic find from the game altogether! p.s. this might be bumping but thread still open & this lunar new year i just found out about this... doh...

if yer an old vet you have tons i mean TONS of that worthelss stuff. this is a way to get something for it.

i always thought Old LA would have been better as a guild hall. then mounts- more vendors - exploration could have been more fun. but they still could do it!

it would just woulda been nice to be able to use mounts here. but u cant for obviou reasons. as they arent lifting a finger to fix anything major to old LA.

Anyone see any new Lunar New Years Decorations? I don't notice anything new in the "festivals" section. Not even a "bunny" or "hare" or "rabbit" statue to be seen at the very least? odd... edit: Nvm just found the rabbit statue- guess my reading skills are bad 😄 (just before racetrack parts)not by the ram or rat 😄 and i guess it's now just the 1 decoration they've converted to doing for this festival. 😞

😞

I'm sure if i made it I could find a way to work it into a beetle track. and p.s. Isle of Reflection is bigger then you think if you like floating islands in the air out over the ocean boundaries 😄
