(Although this might be moot, if there are drastic changes coming to the recurring achievements with SotO.) Edit: If you feel confused, don't be afraid to ask. The first step to solve your problem is admitting you have one. Have a nice day. 💜 I think they put starter zones in for level 80 toons on purpose so players aren't isolated to their own level and there's a higher level toon to amaze newbies with mounts and fashion, and to answer questions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can do any event you want, it's just that max level characters overwhelm the starting zones when there is a daily event completer there and low level characters, especially new players have a hard time participating when mobs are one-shot killed by dismount abilities. So either balance the level adjustment stats for higher level characters (has not happened, although has been complained about many times, mainly ingame) or don't give max level characters daily event completer achievements on low level zones. I don't think that's stupid. /s or no /s This confused this fast? Man, I love these forums... Edited July 19, 2023 by Handsel.2891 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the only dailies you can manage to do are these then you'd be struggling hard with NO players that have level 80s helping you. We love making new players feel overwhelmed even more. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuxie.1209 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 I'm aware that legendary backpieces were released before they had the technology to dye backpieces, and I'm not asking for Anet to go back and make every single backpiece dyeable(though that would be nice, it'd be highly unlikely), I'm suggesting that it would begreat for Anet go back and apply the technology on the 3 Legendary backpieces that we have that players poured tens if not hundreds of hours into making and make them dyable so that they may match their legendary armor without having to transmute them away for style. It feels really odd for the only dyeable backpieces for them to be mostly gemstore items. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Izzy.2951 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Hey, When we are entering a fractal i would like to see a concept art of the fractal and the name of the fractal, its kinda confusing when your constantly going in and out, and u just see "fractals of the mist". While in any other area of the game, PvE maps, PvP etc you see a concept art of the concrete place and the name in their loading screens.

Esparado.9305 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 If you own Path of Fire expansion, you can get the Raptor mount at level 10 without starting The Path of Fire story. But what about adding in PERMANENT basic Raptor mount, basic gliding (worse gliding then HOT basic gliding, make it only viable too survive fall damage) and basic fishing to Vanilla Guild Wars 2, giving new players incentives to buy the expansions? 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kharmin.7683 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 No. The expansions and their contents should be enough incentive. It's not like they cost a fortune. Let's stop asking for free stuff and start paying for things like expansion content so that Anet can keep the servers running. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zebulous.2934 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Err the incentive to buy a bicycle irl is because you don't want to travel on foot. That incentive seems to work irl. The most persuasive incentive I found to get a glider was bloodstone fen in living world season 3. You can't survive jumping off of the airship without a glider. This actually is the reason I started playing HoT. A glider may be convenient in the core game but it isn't nessassary until season 3. No need to rush things. Adding fishing to the core game is probably a bad idea. New players are already drowning in a sea of unfamiliar game mechanics. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accounts with any of the Elder Dragon Saga expansions: Heart of Thorns, Path of Fire or End of Dragons unlocked will be granted permanent access to the basic raptor mount after they reach level 10 on a single character.

If you add permanent expansion unlocks to base game, it's not exactly an incentive to buy those expansions. What NOT PERMANENT raptor unlock does is: "see? This is a raptor. You like it? Cool, you can play with it for 10h but then buy expansion if you still want to have it". Edited July 20, 2023 by Sobx.1758 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving basic expansion features to vanilla players does not incentivize them to buy the expansions. It might advertise the expac features but could create an impression that just waiting will give expac features over time. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think rentals, festivals, the mount at 10, are all adequate advertising for why you might want the expansions. Heck I'd even say why not a free fishing weelend or at a festival so you can try it out, but nothing more than greens and blues maybe caught. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
