  1. I'm for removing downstate permanently (or adapting it by removing rally, in-combat rezzing and downed skills), but play none of your mentioned classes. Play Warrior instead, and not even a good build at that. Hell, I get whipped quite a lot right now in WvW.But when I kill someone, it is the result of me actively outplaying the opponent and doesn't end in Scrap Wars while we are both prone, tossing shoes and rocks at each other.Plus, somebody mentioned it already: Get killed? No problem, just try again. Lol, you do realize that this sounds like "I'm rock, so nerf paper. Scissors are fine."?
  2. The result will be that the majority of glass canon tryhards want downstate to stay, because they rely on being rezzed all the time I'm a glass canon tryhard myself who more often than not benefits from Rally and Rez.However, I tend to challenge myself and sometimes even feel the urge to... git gud.Ofc I can only speak for myself, so everybody is invited to disagree :wink: Agreed. Furthermore, it removes any incentive to actually improve. Why should they? Mates will keep on rezzing them / kill their target so they can rally.As it is, they can screw up countless times as there are people to save their behinds. As you pointed out, the bigger crowd will mostly be victorious, almost regardless of skill involved. I wonder if that was originally intended?
  3. As a player who actually loses as many fights as he wins in WvW, I would prefer Downed State to stay removed.Imho, there is nothing less epic than lying in the dirt and tossing scrap at your opponent. Maybe it's just my Dark Souls mindset, but if I mess up, it's fine for me to start over. Perhaps, someone can start a poll on this? I'd be quite interested in the results.
  4. We have capes. Butt-capes! Lots. Of! THEM!!!1eleven!Frankly, I'd dig capes which are actually worn around the shoulders. Or even just one shoulder à la Ezio Auditore!
  5. I used to think that GoB would be a nightmare to grind out. How wrong I was. At first I tried to get it by only doing easy dailies like vet creature, take a ruin or spend badges. But halfway there, my impatience kicked in, I popped one of those XP boosters (the one increasing reward progress) and got into it. When there was no blob, I gathered small groups of players and flipped camps, ruins, even some towers. But reward progress wise, nothing can beat the blob, thus I too did some of that. And I had indeed so much fun, that I missed the point where I had enough progress + reward potions to get my GoB and kept on playing for hours. That's how great it was. Of course, your results may vary, but what I'm trying to say is that you never know if something's a nightmare unless you tried it. Perhaps, you are even in for a surprise.Nowadays, the biggest horror when thinking about crafting a legy is the tons of T5 mats I need to acquire. Don't want to buy it all, but it takes ages to gather that much!Still, nothing that's gonna stop me from merrily producing further legies! On the GoE: Seriously, guys? With core Tyria being what it is, you're asking for an even easier way to get a good portion of your legy? It's practically for free!
  6. Imho, any profession can work with any race.Sometimes, it is more fun going against the tide than being one of a dozen black, bone-themed Necros on screen.
  7. The community is part of what keeps me coming back. Be it simple things like being ressed or people randomly asking in map chat how everybody is doing or more dedicated deeds like mesmers JP-porting others for hours, mentors spending their free time teaching other players to do meta or world events and doing that day after day after day. Sure, there are players that just leave you lying on the floor or rush past you while you're fighting mobs at your last shred of health bar, but from my experience, that's more the exception than the rule. You can always ask for advice or even assistance and with minimal patience, you will receive your help. One of the best things I encountered, was when I was waiting for Warden Jabari to launch, propagating my endeavor in map chat to gather some man-power. After a short wait, somebody approached me and asked me in-character ('Ahai, outlander. Do you happen to travel south, to the Bone Wall?'), whether they might accompany me. Just in that very moment, the Awakened came and took the Foreman's wife, Emara, leading to the actual Warden Jabari event. While we waited for the Foreman to get ready, other players joined, all speaking in-character, asking what was going on and if they could help slay the fiend. Together, we marched towards the Joko Gate and finished the oppressor. After we had fought, we returned to the village and continued to chat for an hour. Where we came from, where we were headed etc. As one of the PCs was clearly Elonian, they told us about some lore of Elona, while asking about Kryta (also referring to GW1 plot). While I'm mostly playing this game on my own and I'm not really into RP, that encounter was just awesome!So, in my book, that equates to a really great community.
  8. That wouldn't be any good to me because I'd still have to hunt through all the drops in my inventory to identify the items I want to mark for salvage. My goal here is to add salvage items to the things I can clear out very quickly when I first open my inventory, so it's easier to sort through the remaining stuff which I don't always do the same thing with. Okay, I see. How would this work? Take a specific heavy chest piece for example, like a chain coat. The same item can have a wide variety of names, levels, stats, and runes. "Mighty chain coat," "Malign chain coat," etc. Wouldn't you have to mark each "version" as salvageable? Or are you only proposing certain items can be marked salvageable? I propose that we have to mark the items as salvageable in our inventory, then right-click our copper-fed to select 'Salvage all marked'. But somehow, that wouldn't fit the inventory's mouse-only mentality. Then again, in the same time it takes me to mark items for salvage, I could as well salvage them right away. Okay, salvage my idea =)
  9. As an alternative, let us mark items as 'Marked for Salvage' and right-click on the Salvage Item for 'Salvage all marked'.
  10. I mostly witness that during cutscenes, the characters suddenly stop moving, keep on talking for a few seconds, before they stop talking and I notice that the game froze completely. Funny enough, that only happens to me in core personal story. I seldom or even never witnessed that on HoT or PoF... would have truly kittened me off!Then again, having to play the Pale Tree Orr vision again and again is not that funny, either. I clearly remember that this happened once while I enjoyed the ending cinematic after defeating Zhaitan. Guess what? Gotta defeat him again =) there, checkpoints would have eased the pain significantly.
  11. Perhaps your screen is broken?Or you need glasses?Or - and I know that this is far-fetched - tastes differ...?
  12. I can't believe that penguins have only been mentioned once!! :scream:
  13. Although I'd never buy that gizmo, you do have a point there!"I killed two Elder Dragons and one God and now I'll go gather my nodes!"
  14. I'd be happier with more ways of actually acquiring said glyphs.Paying 400g for one is simply not worth it imho. And the only one that could be bought on the Gem Store was the Glyph of Bounty, which I'm not even interested in.
  15. A title for playing less than a few hours per week should be "Filthy Casual".I worked hard (and played little) for this title!!
  16. I approve. Modeler/animator work hours very, veeeey well spent. :+1: Well, if players spend hours after hours staring at a virtual butt, why not make that butt pleasing to the eye? B) Did you just objectified that poor pixel...I can't even... You got me, I'm a perverted pixel-molester, whatchagonnado?Bwahahahaaaah!!! :p The internet feelgood police are allready on their way You had it coming.Oh noes! I hear them coming...!Gotta go guys, see you next time via a russian proxy ;)

  19. That guy sure knows how to throw a party, eh? You, good Sir, just made my day =)
  20. Man the two fur-options are giving me a raging Norner. I want them soooo badly. :D One could say, they make you norny?Love the Elonian one! Can't wait for even skimpier male swimsuits for the next Mr. Tyria contest!
  21. Oh, the memories of walking out of Caudecus' manor with only my helmet on...
  22. Dat mustache! :astonished:We need it on ALL the races! And sexes!
