Nabbut.7480 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Replace daily gold reward with daily gold tax, amount based on highest character/mastery level on account.If an account goes bankrupt after tax deduction, suspend it but allow gem-to-gold conversion.To make things even worse more realistic, allow harvesting of nodes on the map only after buying gathering license which lasts until the change of maps with gold, or permanent license with gems, cost of said license calculated dynamically based on average TP worth of all map nodes.

Kelly.7019 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 It's a fantasy world, not realistic city.Though maybe some of these ideas could work if they had open world personal housing "taxes".but most likely instanced housing would be the way they go if they choose to expand on what they have and allow players to live in any home in tyria. then taxes would again be irrelevant.

Psientist.6437 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Remove all sources of gear besides the BLTP. I want to compete over everything I need, I feel lost in Tyria. Shouldn't the items we need like healthcare and education keep rising in price? Why I am I getting stuff just for showing up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't be toxic in your dreams (i hope for your continued mental health). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercury ranique.2170 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 healing skills that affect allies should require the ally to pay a monthly insurance.

kharmin.7683 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Make it more realistic? Take away all magic and all non-human races. Remove all creatures that aren't currently found IRL. Character death is irrecoverable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HnRkLnXqZ.1870 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Never use sarcasm/irony in an area, communication is only done with text. A lot of people will not get the joke, a lot of people will feel offended and some will react with sarcasm on their own which you may (or may not) be able to notice on your own - see above.

nosleepdemon.1368 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Guys, you're not even close. We need to hit two rocks with one stone. First - underwater armour is still underutilized. Second, we need something exciting to happen in the new expansion.I propose the developers spawn a highly contagious disease in Cantha, which will naturally spread through Tyria quickly. The disease is more harmful the more birthday gift boxes a character has opened. The only way to avoid its effects? Putting on your underwater head gear.

Carnius Magius.8091 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 What I don't get is the way armor damage is handled. They did away with it in WvW. Why not for the whole game. Or at least make armor wear and tear more realistic. Why wait until 7 pieces of armor get damaged before armor gets broke to where stats get removed. Stats should start diminishing with the first damaged piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't much but the medical bills were there. Same with broken equipment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
