One of the things I like about them nerfing the dungeon gold rate is that I dont do dungeons, so basically im poor. And people who do it, are rich. They can convert gold to gems and enjoy the pleasures of life. I cannot, because I wvw. So now they're being knocked down a peg we can all be poor and that makes me happy. Because a lot of items on the trading post are very expensive, due to inflation, due to things like people farming dungeons. This is basically Bernie Sanders waving a big old paw at the naughty dungeon farmers and helping me afford items on a wvw salary. Hopefully the rewards for fractals are not too good.

thats 100% me friend, im happy about the gold nerf, i dont like any focused activity that gets people too wealthy because their hoarded wealth skews makes things too expensive for casuals such as myself. maybe they should tax people on their wealth, hell its not a bad idea, people would invest in expensive items like bolts of damask to keep their money illiquid but it'd be a start.

Its not that crazy of an idea some people have hundreds of thousands of gold and they are manipulating the cost of items on the TP. Thats not fair to the average player.

I have been playing too much Destiny this past month because shooting spacemans is fun.

Have I missed any more hype-killing poor decisions by ArenaNet? Looking forward to enjoying the open world stuff in HoT, Stronghold, and nothing else :v:

Last I saw they showed off the new legendaries and they look pretty neat though.

The problem in the first place was that the period right after reset is the most active, and moving it to Saturday night meant less time to play on freshly-reset maps when people were on their day off. Moving it to Saturday is better in that respect, although Friday evening seems like the best (for NA players at least), so I dunno.

But the game has the gem store/conversion between gold and gems allowing poopsockers to sink gold into gems and get hats, rather than strictly drive up the cost of bear asses.
This conversion also lets someone with a life spend their real monies on gold so they can own the bear asses
Pretty princess dress up IS the gold tax.

Good to see that Nexon will continue to not influence GW2 design choices, and we are left only in the hands of a far more trustworthy company, NCSoft.

You know, the irony in all of this is that if wildstar didn't tank, nexon probably would have kept onto the stock, but because wildstar crashed and burned, nexon probably felt that they weren't going to miss out on much.

So a big thank you to wildstar, for making guild wars 2 a better game.

This isn't where
I parked my car...
So i did my first sPVP match and realized that i sucked, trying to follow my team around and do stuff but man was getting destroyed.

so playing a warrior, changed my amulet to an amulet of ice, changed my signet to one with power/precision/toughness.

Using a sword main hand and axe off hand.

Pretty much was Pushing 2 for -50% movement, 4 for double attack and spins.

Changed my specializations to be strength/arms/discipline

Stomp/Charge/Toughness signet.


Anyone wanna give me some pointers for warrior pvp? felt like i was getting destroyed.
