Originally posted by bcbully Pretty dependent on the class you're playing...like elementalist have x4 that amount then x5 by 5 more with the conjured weapons... Engineer has all sorts of 5 sets. A ranger with their pets has x4 per pet, unless you only count the F2 you can use on demand. You can then multiply that by number of pets, or maybe unique pets - since the various families share 3 of the same skills. The one family that shares all of the same is the pig, and that special F2 leads to the discovery of another item which literally multiplies this by a huge amount! These items can have 1-3 additional skills when picked up - that I have seen. To examine some classes, a Ranger has 25 skills (5 with 5) to 14 (3 w/ 2 & 2 w/ 4) skills. %s are way off. Gaurdian has 25 skills (5 with 5) to 15 (3 w/ 3 & 2 w/ 3). Plus Guardians get 2 tomes = 10 more (2x5). So your numbers aren't accurate at all :) |

not sure exactly what you mean by exactly the same. It's mostly and exploration/gathering/events PVE experience. There's only so many things that any Devs can do with the five D's. Deliver Everything else that makes a game is simply a ui change. Except for the events of course because at higher levels they become meta-events, more complex fewer timers dependent on players involvement and NPC's actions. most people like my husband found it difficult to get used to the new combat style. He actually still stands there without dodging sometimes and expects to live. in this game you must dodge, you must use your heal, and you must use the abilities that allow you to move per weaponset. it improves your survival if you learn to switch weapons/foci/kits mid combat but it's not necessary. I'm not sure exactly what you're having an issue with but more detail would help us explore it. |

Originally posted by Eluldor love my engineer because of the choices of skills via kits and combining them into an arsenal. It's awesome what i can do with a chem gun, bomb kit and bandage kit combined with the supply drop. :) lotsa choices actually. People are thinking that we should have access to every ability at all times, when i played that age old system on WoW only three or four abilities were useful to begin with so it's really not necessary to have twenty buttons when you use only 4. :) |

I understand where the OP is coming from. I had a similar feeling but what I did was after I leveled out of a certain map, I went to another races map zone. In doing so it helped to keep everything fresh and alive with the different characters and envoirments. I bounced around a ton during my lvling to 80 but honestly after awhile it didnt even feel like leveling and I was just enjoying the game.

Originally posted by mikeoffy well search in the system and deactivate the map signals about hearts vistas etc, and start walking in the map and pay attention to everything, it will get you about a month to finish one area and you will be around 25lvl ...
but from the games you play, just hit "B" and choose an area in WvWvW and go there and burn your soul, at en endless war.
also the fact that you are so low lvl means that you havent unlocked all your utilities, also you havent visited any dungeon, and btw i would like to understand those who miss the holy trinity and they say about mass dps in dungeons, they must have spend lot of silvers in repairs cause if you play right and try to understand everytime the mechanic (and its not easy to get it) you will see that creating dungeons based on holy trinity is just lack of insipiration. in GW2 you dont have to w8 for heal from the healer or the tank to get aggro, you have to care for the next attack to dodge-heal, you have to run to raise the downed guy next to you, you have to make a position plan, you have to use controls and conditions, etc staf which the majority of dps guys hate ...

Originally posted by Mannish Man I just openned "add/remove software" last month and saw it and deleted it. I played from launch, liked it, got bored and quit. I heard it got a little better but they lost me long ago. I'm glad some people still like it, and f2p should have been from day 1 imo lol |

It really is a very good game now. The game has so many new features like Housing, Pet System and Fast Track Sever and an updated graphics engine. If you like quest then its got it. If you are a grinder like me then feel free to switch over to the fast track server at anytime where the mobs give 2X XP rates. Got a buddy on another server that you want to play with? No problem, you both can meet up on the fast track server and play together when ever you want. All types of pvp for people that like pvp. Totally free to play with no restrictions to anything at all. All updates are free with 3.5 Tiamat's Ruin launching Oct 10 and many more to come. The game has more content then anything out other then probaly WoW. Also I forgot it has in game Twitter.

Originally posted by Mannish Played with nearly all my alts up to lv. 20 and was at least decent (ok, hour of waiting for many exploits, ... etc) then just free fall. Never in my life (50 now) with all games put together have not seen such massive gold spamming, more bots then players, .... something so disgusting that can not describe. For test have expanded chat window to cover entire screen, was filled in seconds with pure gold spamming messages. And they were doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about. Support: absolute zero, −273.15° on the Celsius scale. I remember them also well for my MasterCard. Had to change card at the end as they have continued to charge sub despite dozen of my tries to stop them. And was not alone at that time. After that this game is completely as completely can be DEAD for me. |

Hiya.
I came from TERA as well (max level Archer Castanic). Really didn't like the quest set up, but enjoyed the combat.
If you want recticle based combat in GW2, I highly suggest you try the Combat Mode Mod (1.1 is out): http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/10s4s6/combat_mode_11/
I can't play without it and with 5000+ bots banned, no one has complained of being banned by using it. It really takes the game in a WHOLE NEW DIRECTION.
Try the mod for 1-2 days before you make a decision :) Here's a video demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpdgW_G4FyU We’ll stop to sleep when the game is the best possible game we think it can be. We’ve seen the population of the game steadily rising lately and we’re not going to sit on our butts and congratulate one another, we’re going to try and build on that momentum and make the game even better. -Colin johanson on GW2 |

There are bots all over Guild Wars 2 but people are still playing. I agree that it should not be there but I will never let something like that keep me from playing a game if I enjoy the game. I remember when people complained about bots in Lineage 2 and I always said when the bots start pking people and seiging castles let me know because if all they are doing is killing the same mobs over and over in one spot then what they are doing does not intrest me.

Originally posted by Mannish I remember the baby days of Aion though, when they tried to stop the botters. They would penalize people who traded gold with people that traded with botters. So for example; You get an item from someone but that person got the gold for that item from a RMT. Well now you are guilty by assiciation and therefore you could potentially get banned. I had left shortly after they implimented this but heard of freinds that got burned by people. They either took away the item or froze your account until they whole thing was over or some craziness like that.
I'm glad I didnt get hooked on this game, sounds frustrating. I ignor the spams in chat though, they dont bother me. Sometimes friends send me messages via private chat and I miss it because I never really look at chat. |
