First, sorry for my English

Second:

The GW need new things fast for the pve players, but they dont want make new zones, dungeons, elite zones etc... because this cost much work and they prefer work in GW2.

Well, i thing they would can do a new "colour" of weapons for PVE, this weapons would be the "red weapons" ( or other color :P ).

these weapons will have only the skin of the rarest weapons ( voltaic spear, magma shield, stormbow, obsidian sword etc...) and their status would be better to gold weapons:

Ex: A sword will have 25-32 max damage
Bow: 25-38 max damage
Scythe: 19-51
Hammer: 29-45
Daggers: 17-27
Spear: 24-37
Shield:26 defense

And like the wands, staff, and focus the damage are not important, increase the recharge and launh spell recharge to 30% or other for example.

Well, this weapons these weapons of course would have the drop lower than the gold weapons and would be much more difficult to got and only in HM, in addiction this weapons shall not inscriptables to maintain its rarity and is more difficult to get a better weapon.

These weapons also may be placed in the hall of monuments if they have a req9 and have perfect mods, and could be replaced by another red wapon of the same type of weapon if you find a another better or with a different skin.

This weapons only be PVE to mantain the equality en PVP.

Well this my idea, is easy to doing, they dont have to make new areas, only change status and color, and i think that would give a lot of life to the game.

Thx for read this and sorry for my english, im spanish.

/notsigned if you dont paly GW for many hours at a time or you dont have 100s of plat you cant afford such items already and you certalny wont be able to afford them if this does happen

jiggles · Jul 19, 2008, 04:43 PM // 16:43

ermmmmmmmmmmmmmm. No. You cant possibly complain that there isnt enough in pve to do. Unless your a gwamm in which case goto pvp. I stopped reading after you highered the max damage on all weps as i figured it was going to be a waste of my time.

Itokaru · Jul 19, 2008, 04:44 PM // 16:44

Sounds like you want to give PvE players an advantage over PvPers by giving them better weapons in exchange for more grinding...

lolwut? This would only further imbalance PvE by giving only the obscenely rich players crazy damage. /notsigned.

-Lotus- · Jul 19, 2008, 04:49 PM // 16:49

hell no.

all maximum equpment in GW is and should be easy to get for anyone.

itsvictor · Jul 19, 2008, 04:51 PM // 16:51

This idea and thread fail on astronomical levels, needs more cat pictures.

Well, My character have 38 Months of age, i do all PVE, in my guild There are several people with 30 titles.

I prupose this because before of nightfall and inscriptable weapons was more difficult but more fun have a good weapons.

we almost 1 year without new areas like this and it will follow more than 1 year and a half until Guild Wars 2, and will be the longest without news of the game history.

Its actually been suggested before, PvE only weapons (including using the color red every time for some reason). It's still a dumb idea. Also, red weapons already exist in the game, as the PvP reward skinned weapons.

Well I prefer pay 1500K for a ultra rare weapon that i could keep to GW2 that pay 1500K in 10.000 sweet points or party .

theres no evidence you'll keep any weps you dedicate. For all we know you could just recive a gift for it. Which would mean all your money went down the shitter while those with the sweet tooth might get something better.

^yes, definitely. I don't want to grind endlessly just to get decent equipment so I can survive in an area. Guild Wars is (mostly) about skill and not about how much grinding you can do before you get bored.

So, no, this idea is bad.

tyrant rex · Jul 19, 2008, 05:19 PM // 17:19

stupid idea is stupid , try again next year

kunta · Jul 19, 2008, 05:26 PM // 17:26

I agree, I don't want it to be easy for EVERYONE to get maxed weapons. It makes the game to easy.

Red Weapons are PvP rewards.

The only thing like that I would agree with is to add a PvE upgrade slot to items.
Then, the PvE slot could have properties like:
- Highly salvageable.
- Increased price.
- +X% Damage vs race. (PvE only)
- +Damage unconditional. (PvE only)
- +1..3 damage reduction (PvE only. Shields only)
- +5..15% chance to block attacks (PvE only. Shields only)
And things like that.
That way, the Ebon Vanguard weapons won't be as bad having that fxed +20% vs charr, since the other 3 upgrade slots would be freed.

And PvE upgrades won't be as fixed as PvP ones, they could have a wider range of values, so it would give PvE items a little push in value.

This could also be applied to green items, so they could have PvE-only fixed properties that can't be found in normal drops, making them really unique. PvE equipment could have properties like:
- Rago: +1 to Fire magic. (PvE Only)
- Forgotten set: +30% Damage/Defense(Weapon/Offhand) vs Abbadon Demons (PvE only) (The max in other PvE items would be +20%)
- Droknar's set: +30% Damage/Defense vs Destroyers (PvE only)
- Deldrimor set: +30% Damage/Defense vs Titans (PvE only)
- Ceremonial set(Factionsendgame): +30% Damage/Defense vs Shiro'ken (PvE only)
- Icy dragon sword: +10 Cold damage (PvE Only).
- Ogre-Slaying Knife: +9 damge vs Ogres (PvE Only) (Yeah, I know it's already there, but it would be 'mode' to PvE slot)
- Lyssa's Bedlam: Heals +25 Health when losing enchantments. (PvE Only)
- Grenth's Grasp: Deals +10 damage to Enchanted foes. (PvE only)
- Vera: +10% attack speed (PvE only)
- Eldritch Sword: Chaos damage (PvE Only)
- Exalted Aegis: Melee attackers take 5 Holy damage. (PvE only)
And so on.

But PvE only weapons? No, no. We are already short in storage space to have to keep items for PvE and for PvP. The same should be used, just working differently.

Survive? Its already evident that after 3 years, you can beat the game and SURVIVE with the current "max" weapons. I actually like the idea, and actually find it funny for all the haters. This is PvE, not PvP. PvP is where you show off your skills. If you feel satisfied and powerful showing off your skills to random computer controlled monsters, then so be it( Battlefield anyone?). PvE is already shallow compared to other games, and it would be a huge step in actually gaining interest in the game for people who are already bored of it and grind for titles (90% of players). plz.
