For what reason was this suddenly changed? Now you can't do the dailies for each game mode, ONLY FOUR dailies available and you have to do ALL FOUR to complete the daily. Needlessly more difficult with LESS REWARDS for players, and half the new daily reward redemption page is just an advertisement for the expansion. Really? The old daily AND login systems worked fine. Really not much good reason this couldn't be an addition in some form instead of REPLACING both of those features.

Outnumbered used to give +5 extra pips every 5 minutes a while back. That was actually pretty nice.

It is annoying when that happens, warclaw 1 not going off for some reason and then on CD for a few seconds so you have to manually dismount. Kind of annoying like how hard it is to pick out a react on the forums now without the menu sliding away and you have to try all over again.

This subforum just looks like people complaining about the story nonstop 😆 Most players not going to care about the story in an MMO, and it's never going to be the same as a singleplayer RPG. That said, this last story update feels particularly uninspired; the big bad doesn't even seem to have any voice lines. Maybe that's not a bad thing though.

Trying to finish the last collection to unlock skyscale and THIS keeps happening every time near a reality rift, and it happens before reaching this step whenever you move onto a rift: https://i.imgur.com/deO7266.png It's always with a pop up reminder to unlock a mastery, but you don't even *have* the skyscale masteries available so you can possibly upgrade that. On a related note, this is a very "feels bad" kind of collection having players go to 28 locations for a thing they have to return to with this mastery to actually interact with the rift. It would be great if this were a step AFTER you could unlock this mastery so you can actually do the rifts, and it doesn't feel like the game is spamming you with a useless reminder because of this bug.

Came to the forums for news on WvW overhaul. Seems everyone else is guessing where it goes next too. Of course there's a reward for failing to defend an objective. It's a paltry consolation prize that gives SOME merit to putting in effort to defend, which is what people are already complaining about. Whoever controls SMC can rack up lots of defend rewards every 3m, dunno what this is on about. And getting WXP has always been RNG with the bonus loot drops. If they're increasing the rate of WXP, obviously they're looking at fun factor i.e. more rank up chests and rewards for playing the game mode. Those who already got max rank is virtually the same as those who did map completion before mounts. It's how the game evolves. Now the BOON meta is so strange to see returning after time away from the game. Suddenly all but every profession gets quickness and alacrity now, and for some reason they're removing sources of boon removal in all game modes. Necro DAGGER 5 REALLY for PvE needing that change if it's for WvW? Surprising people are not complaining to nerf alacrity and the like. Alac already nerfed so much from when it first came out as chrono exclusive way back when. But you know what? Most surprising how the UI still hasn't been updated and there's that overlap with the map chest icon and the first reward pop-up chest. People been frustrated with that since they made it that way years ago, for real. But if people grin and bear it through that, same deal with boon meta. So it goes.

I've been playing for a long time on and off since 2013. I got the legendary fractal backpack forever ago. Now returning after a few years, I wanted to try some new fractals. So I join a group from LFG and... instantly kicked? Not even into combat yet. No chat message, no reason, nothing. SERIOUSLY? I've never seen this before in GW2. In all the years I've played. Ever. Is this what PvE has turned into here? Is there *really* no way for players to filter for WHATEVER it is they're looking for than to do this toxic thing with instantly kicking? That's ridiculous. There's no good reason for that, and I've never seen this before in this MMO or any other I've played. This is the kind of crap that's made me stay away from raids in this game. And that seems like a good idea to stay away if this is the toxic mess PvE is turning into.

Lore: it would be weird to have a sequel before the current storyline with the dragons is resolved. And then what will be the next major conflict? Elder Gods? :tongue: Limitations: I like to think of the remaining unused weapons for Warrior elite specs as a "countdown" to how many expansions they can release before they have to reinvent the system. Four possible left with pistol, scepter, staff, and focus, or five with offhand pistol. Money: if NCsoft isn't happy with the revenue GW2 expansions are pulling in, they might pressure ANet to change it up. Side note: would not be surprised if this was a major reason why they introduced the Mount Adoption Licenses... anyways, this would be the biggest reason for a GW3 IMO.

Thank you for bringing this up again. The autozoom out is fine IMO, but it's ridiculous how it screws up your zoom afterwards! That's the real issue, that stupid bug has been in the game for years; autozoom out for big boss, then after it autozooms in WAY further than you had the zoom set. That's bonkers.

I'd only see Cantha being relevant to the story if the Deep Sea Dragon surfaced and attacked for some reason, otherwise why would we go there? They could come up with something, but it might be a stretch...
