Are we going to ignore that blizzard stole the wizard tower idea for their new expansion?

They did? Like story wise, or You mean something diffrent? Not a big fan of Blizzard, only palyed D2 and D3 but I am curious.

[Daily/lengedary mats are a bad decision]

It does and it doesn't. I guess it depends on how individual player feels. I mean I'd love to see The Dreamer in this pack as I kind of like it but always had something else to spend gold on. But also feel kinda wierd when after crafting my Predator i see much of the progress given for free.

It's one of this things where You have to say, it's their game, their decision to make, this time it sucks for me.

It is perfectly fine to feel this way tho. My way of dealing with this feeling is getting another nice thing I can brag about. I am happy coz I have the new shiny, anet is happy coz I play the game. Cheer up and get this new strike CM infusion. Maybe it will make You feel better. ^^

[Got 80 Acclaim less because i did my weekly fast]

How will we ever recover from this critical blow. My 80 AC. It hurts even more than Xera asking you mockingly "How does it feel, to make it so far, only to fail". When You pugging her in all welcome group. Such a loss. We should get black mourning line thing on our avatars. xd

[I just watched blizhcon 2023 and, I thought we could help out their team through this discussion]

I wonder where Blizzard learned how to lose 90% of Diablo 4 playerbase in the span of few weeks.

[Provisioner tokens in the Wizard Vault?]

I do CMs when I can but I don't see them up too often. It is a good source of tokens if you can consistently do them. 

Hmm nothing to add here than. In my personal opinion on the actual topic, I think they shouldn't add this tokens to the Vault, but it would be nice to add a special provisioner merchant (to some of the exclusive pass locations or to the entirely new one for example) that would have provision deals from all other maps. Much like it is resolved with all fishing baits being in one place in this Cantha themed pass.

[Provisioner tokens in the Wizard Vault?]

@Beast Sos.1457 In case if You don't know. If you like combat than you can kill CM raid bosses, some of them are trivial and do not stand out much from the NM encounters, and they still award you with Provisioner Tokens. ^^

[Plot hole in SotO part 2 (Spoilers)]

The small one "Ilia" was not cousin of Peitha. Twas some random scared mobbo. The champion that killed her is/was Peithas cousin.

[I love this game]

Hope You already did and I write this in vain, but if You really have depression and all other mental issues You mentioned in Your blog, than as much as game can help You escape Your problems temproraly, it is not a solution. You should look for professional help, a doctor and/or a psychotherapist.

[What is the highest point in all of GW2?]

NECRO'D: Highest point on the map is Verdant Brink, Precarious Perch just west of "Canopy over Pale Reaver Rally."

Nope, highest accesible point on map has always been Mordremoth tree in Dragon Stand. The tree where he dies.

Edit: Other mentions that could rival it would be probably giant trees in Bitterfrost Frontier and SotO buildings like Wizard tower or Bastion in the middle in Amnytas. 

[Weird thought on the origin of Charr]

@Konig Des Todes.2086 @Randulf.7614 Thanks for enlightening me. Guess this theory is as good as any than. ^^

[Weird thought on the origin of Charr]

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't magic created and given to humans by Abaddon? And charr were on Tyria long before humans arrived. If so than there would be no magic that could something like that.

No need to do yoga, just eat a food buff of choice and use that metabolic primer and you dont have to eat for 12 hours. And 1 meta burns enough fat already. You only have to eat more to keep your muscle in shape. 

With metabolic primers You stray from the path od the Gods of Fitness, and You will probably die from the heart attack at your 40s. We should not encourage the shotrcuts. Normal metas are bad for your health to, hitting that "1" butto... swinging that sword like a mad man is not an proper excersise, You might get your muscles strained and hurt yourself. You are also stressed becouse all of that monsters hunting You.

Only Amnytas meta will give you, fresh, healthy, family friendly and IMMERSIVE, way to stay at your best self.

Once, before SotO, fur on my charr was getting whiter and whiter after every meta, now my fur regained it's glossy black colour, on the top of that my fur is strong and luscious as it was in the day when I made this character at release.

Edit: Eating more won't help much if you won't eat smart. I saw a norn shoving hundrets of candy corn at once. He only made himself vomiting.

There are only strong looking characters and fitt shapes in game (except asura’s but those are animals) 

Yes, and now you know both why they are like this and how to keep them that way.

[Amount of 250 or 250+ LI or KP groups in LFG for daily strikes is getting silly]

Eating expensive or healthy food daily is getting silly.

You can fill your belly just the same with fast food.

Have no one ever told You that looking into someone elses plate is rude?

[What's the point of playing SOTO content?]

What about the yoga excersises in Amnytas meta, that keep Your character fit and healthy... led by hidious blue monster that is scaring more kittens out of me than the actual boss of this meta that looks like Lovecraftian horror, ey op, EY?! SotO gave our characters a chance to work on ours Jessica Albas bodies during the meta event, can You ask for anything more immersive? Xd

[Please add an unlimited Transmutation Charge to the Wizard's Vault!]

They kind of are unlimited. Just have little more steps to it. Turn Astral Acclaim into gold bags, turn gold from gold bags into gems, buy charges for gems. What You really ask for is to make them cheaper to get, and with the Wizard Vault introduced they were made cheaper like tenfold already.

As for my personal opinion, form my pov making them even cheaper is not necessery. I am perfectly able to sit on hundret of them, with only having lege weapons and while maintaining ten ascended sets, all with diffrent toons.

[will anet add lf Q]

An auto queue would do wonders for dungeons, and emboldened raids

Nope, it wouldn't. Dungeons will be in the same state with or without Q. 

For the easy faceroll content that do not require any roles, one can just make "All welcome" LFG and go do other stuff until group fills up. It's basicly equivalent of the most basic queue system. It works and let me do any dungeon I want, anytime. Other system will not magicly convince peoples to play dungeons more, it have to be rewarding or be made to progress something that many peoples will want to achive.

For harder content it won't work for the sole reason of how game is designed, peoples should know that before asking for such nonsense. Take a tank role for example. To be considered a tank by the game, you have to have the highest toughness number of all players in squad. Since stats works as they are, someone who join as dps, may run a max toughness build, thus creating a conflict becouse game design will consider him a tank and not a person that joined as a tank, and boss will target him instead of a tank. So you will end up with even more time lost, hoping that this full toughness dps will change his build, which can be complicated without access to legendaries or several ascended sets.

Other thing why auto LFG wouldn't work is that it would have to get it's own kp system. Becouse unless you want to get very unsure training session with most players being oblivious to mechanics, that will never get you any knowledge of the encounter, not even mention a kill and wasted time, You really might want to stick to organized training sessions, becouse AutoLFG is just not able to ensure that someone expirienced AND willing to spend hours on teaching will join You.

And if this unsure training session really is what You desire, than just as I said above, You are perfectly fine and able to use the equivalent of autoLFG, and just place "All Welcome" LFG. It have this advantage that once You relize how futile going into high-end content without proper preperation and composition is, You can always change "All Welcome" description into one thay says "All Welcome training, need mentor" or "no kp training run, need x, y, z role, and someone to explain mech", mix and match all You want. AutoLFG is just not able to give You that. This is a fact for everyone who at least dipped their toe into any high-end content in this game, becouse it is a games elementery design. Making 69th topic about it will not change that.

So to summarise, i think that creating a new AutoLFG system would be a massive waste of resources and probably give birth to many unexpected bugs, and I even dare to say that Arena is most likely aware of that, after trying to implement something like that for strikes public instances. If it would work as intended, and be better than normal LFG, than devs surely would implement it for other content as well.

No.

ANet put this armor into new expansion for players to PLAY new expansion. Whats the point of SotO if it will be dead without any goal on it's maps. You want the shiny, do what is required to get it.

well it is bad optimization / some artifical limitations (shadows are computed on gpu, yet gpu cores/memory utilization doesnt go up, just ~20ish frames land in garbage bin, without even trying to push the hardware). i thought dx11 migration was to avoid situations like that

i wonder if its any better on top of the line gpus (4080/90/7900)

It probably is. My friend have one od this high end gpu and says it is working as it normally do.

[Awful wizard tower / amnytas fps drops with shadows above low [Merged]]

So it is the shadows. I didn't knew what is causing it, I really doubted it is my PC coz I do not have any problems on any other maps. So I thought maybe it's bad optimalization.
