Hey guys full run of Urgoz with LgiT in 8:33 min Sinway.

And also some funny/random moments from the run!

I think they should have just added these minipets as drop into the Elite areas and stuff as a posible final reward instead of a mission, with not an insane low drop. As for polar bear they could have just increased the drop rate and alow it to drop at any time of the year. That way they would have increased the player activity in those endgame content and not just enter do Deep in HM once and you get a mini Kanaxai and never come back, also, the minis are gonna be so common that you probably see kamadan full of mini kanaxai. I think it was not the best decision.

As for collector edition minis they could have putted them into the game as prestigious rewards drops, and the other collector edition dances on the gw shop to increase earnings for the game.

Also theres a lot of cool skins in PvE that are just available as a green or with certain fixed stats that they could have added them into the drops with any posible atribute that was logical like: https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Mallyx%27s_Creation

It is much likely another game they are developing (same as in 2019 were they were developing Dune MMO and a mobile game). It would be a horrible decision gw3.

pd: even gw1 remaster would make more sense than gw3

Quote from BJWyler

Forget is pretty much spot on. I don't think most devs on the team now would even know GW1 existed if it weren't for the "2" on the current game. I remember someone was going to interview one of the devs years ago, but the dev backed out once they learned a lot of questions would be about GW1 because they knew nothing about the game. Bill and Stephen were the last two on the team who could do anything with GW1, I believe, and now they've been gone for a while as well.

That is not true tbh.

There are more devs than Bill and Stephen that worked in Gw1 in Arenanet. In fact the Arenanet Director (Collin Johanson), that came back to Arenanet last year. Was a developer for some features in Prophecies, and properly dev for Factions/Nightfall and Eotn.

Regarding that they dont know anything about Gw1. Like +80% of the maps are maps that are in gw1, and they study them good before doing it in gw2 cos they have the same architecture. Story, characters etc there are constant references, and even characters that somehow survived those 250 years. Even skills, one of the last fractals (dungeon) that they made has a special skill that is Light Of Deldrimor and it works like in Gw1 lol. The game phylosophy overall is the same too (cosmetics, prestige, no vertical progresion, no p2w)

So theres that. Its not like gw2 is my favourite game of all times, but it has become a very good game (was very bad in 2012 for me at least).

PD: They are not doing anything with GW1 cos the game is so outdated and would require like 30 devs to work 2 years on it to put it in a decent spot before doing anything. I think its more posible a remaster than anything else. And they have started working recently on an unnanounced project, so maybe..

Quote from OS T

I dont get it either. every mmo should have class/profession system so they can play of each other roles

Its' made for casuals and they forgot how gw really works with professions. I really hated the fact when they announced that they wouldnt have a dedicated monk and that made me realize gw2 is for casuals. Gw2 can rot for all I care, when they decided to do a 180.

Classes are not the same, they have unique skills, playstyle, weapons and effects. And in fact there are roles for raids -> healers, tanks, dps, kiters, mesmers with portals and more depending on the raid mechanic.

What they wanna do is provide the ability for more classes to cover different roles in instanced content. Im not gonna say gw2 is perfect, but its x10 time harder to understand and play it at a good level than gw1. So appart of doing story and some random stuff, i dont see the hardcore pve and pvp being casual at all.

A lot of people have a missconception about gw2 based on what the game had when it came out in 2012. But that was long gone, the game has change a lot, with horizontal progression, specializations, raids, more builds/traits and much more.

Bump!!!

I love most of the deep/urgoz skins

Tip: you can put /favor in game chat and it will tell you if its up or how many achivements left for the buff!

since end of 2006

bump!

I don't think the game necessarily needs an update to bring up the population.

IMHO, Prophecies and/or PVP-only should become free to play for new users.

If a.net needs to revamp the monetization, why can't they offer "starter packs" or platinum purchases.

This game has unique mechanics that have yet to be recreated in new games.

I was one of those that defended GW or part of the game to become F2P, and its actually the worst thing that could happen to the game.

You make a game F2P when its in active development and u update the shop with stuff. GW is not in development and the shop doesnt get any microtransaction item, so ur basically gonna flood the game with more bots, and those buying accounts to bot or manipulate the game are gonna do it for free (so less income for Anet), also the ppl getting banned wouldnt buy more accounts. Its absolutly nonsense.

This game needs soooo many updates that you would need like 20 engineers to work for 1 year at least before starting puting content and promotion. Even in Gw2 its hard for them to update to dx11 and change systems, imagine in gw1 that is x10 more obsolote in all means.

Hey! long time no see GW1 community, heres a video with some old stuff i had, tell me if you guys like it! It starts slowly, but get some rythm after.

Quote from Kryth Vocans

It's coming, just a hunch.

I mean, it would be a dream. But they are still finishing End Of Dragons, and theres no signs to say that.

If there would be changes, there will be 1) a gw update, 2) Stephen commenting on reddit. So....

I didnt notice anything

I think this is the most overxmaxed titles i have right now

Outside Beetleun there are mobs that probably drop at any time. The thing is they got healers and stuff, its really really hard to kill them for not saying close to imposible as solo

Hello fellow players,

Could some1 enlighten me if its posible to farm Firebrand and the 3 mini drops from mobs in WoK? And where is the best place/quest to do it. Thanks!

Hey!

Hope you like it!

Up!

So yes, basically keep saying the community. I can bot to do records, but also flex with 20 bds, os items and so on. But hey, i didn`t farm any of that.

I can get r12 zaishen in some months doing nothing, but you can farm it in 3-4 years.

And please don`t ban my bots, i wanna keep looking "pro". I don`t even understand how you dont get bored, or feel the things you have are useless cos you didn`t farm any of them. Maybe in your case its cos you give the value to the "record", records that are being played by 20 persons in a game. Whos gonna even try to compete with your records? if they have to waste a money they don`t have because they don`t bot. Idk

Quote from Autism Awareness Is Back

You're making a point for me. If someone is botting to use the resources they botted how does that affect anyone?

First i have to say i kinda understand your point, but i can answer that question fast.

Bots affects you since you come back to the game. You log in and you see everything is overpriced, a bds that costed 100e back in the day, now cost 1.000 ectos. That with every single item. That means that if you don`t run bots or play for a looooot of time and certain things that give some money, your poor af, and your characters are gonna be poor as fuck too. (without even considering buying tons of conset and stuff)

Haven`t you see the ppl doing casual scs (not records) spaming consets like if they were chewing gums? rezoning cos some1 dies, cos some1 forgot quest. Quite some of those ppl have bots running, they dont care wasting 5 conset in a sc when they have 5 bots getting tons of them. If you compare that to a normal player, the difference its hugeeee, the rest of the population can`t play like that. So either you make consets and pcons cost shit with an npc so every1 can spam it like chewing gums, or you keep banning bots. Easy.

And btw do you think that a player that is botting to get resources to do scs and records, its not also gonna use quite a lot of that money to make their characters looks amazing and get rare OS shit? common

PD: How many in your speedclear team has made r12 zaishen, and how many has made it with 0 effort thx to botting? all? xD

Did this had any response from Anet?

I guess cries for help have been answered. New weapons and elite skills? Maybe not dead game :p

Nice!

Quote from OS T

but if you are a title whore

haha xD

To put another example: GvG has less monthly players than FA/AB, however paradoxically it has his own title, special drops from strongboxes and the chance of wining capes for your guild. While in AB/FA people are just left with "fun" and nothing else, idk, i dont see this as positive to the game call me weird.

PD: Sorry for double post xD

PD2: Hunting/competing for something can aslo become fun, aswell as brining more players to the mode or mantaining it alive.

Anet: nothing is gonna happen, we even got a costume away 6 years from the shop and no1 cared.

The thing is that you wouldnt need to be force to get those ranks if you dont like to play AB/FA. The same way i dont enjoy logging an alt and farming codex for 8 years, or afking in nine rings. So the key point its just making r12 count for max koabd and hall of monuments, and having the other as an extra. Have in mind there have been even people moving an AB map on fridays and having idk 24-48 people playing ab for fun, imagine if they updated the rank, or even make new brand FA/AB ranks, as a motivation. The other pvp ranks are already long term goals (if you want to get them).

In conclusion, give the people an objective to keep playing FA/AB apart from "fun" , so games keep happening with some kind of competition/fun. And stop losing players.
