Curse

Why? · Mar 13, 2011, 06:01 PM // 18:01

seriously, 100,000?http://guildwars.com/competitive/cha...er/default.php

yea, you're really bright, wasting a week or two letting gw sit there and do nothing. Thanks for making it worthless again...

I know Zos has been broken since the beginning, and i admit i've used it to get faction, but seriously, some courtesy to people who realize you did nothing but waste a ton of electricity to get that stupid high score would be nice.

If anyone wants a build to let your 7 heroes do Zos for you, let me know and i will post the build i use.

ok, here is what i run on my heroes to sit and watch:

and it won't get changed until everyone is farming it like amatz basin when they added faction to it and we were all running SF sins.

Why? · Mar 13, 2011, 06:33 PM // 18:33

i don't really want it changed. I love that i can fill my faction bar when i am not playing.

I just wish people had a little common courtesy. With a 12k quarterly high score, people received a little faction, gold, and xp with reasonable scores.

It takes about 24 hours total to get 70k faction without the bonuses, and your score is about 2000. Pretty much everything is faster than that buy a ton.

Getting rewards for not playing the game is NEVER a good thing.

Deviant Angel · Mar 13, 2011, 06:52 PM // 18:52

So going afk and exploiting the mission is all good as long as you stay in just long enough to fill your bar? Mmmmmmmkay...

Who isn't playing the game? I guarantee the majority of people that go into Zos Shivros are playing the game. All you need to do is look at the number of people on the daily list who have scores in the hundreds, compared to the maybe 3 or 4 people who have figured out how to beat it.

And like i mentioned, 24 hours to get 60 some odd thousand faction isn't even on the level of bad vanquishing or standing around in ab waiting for a group.

can you call something an exploit when it has been broken since the day it was released? Zos Shivros has never worked properly. Arena net is aware of this. If they didn't want people using it they could have closed it, or added massively overpowered monsters, etc.

All i wish is people would think of others, of allowing other people to actually be able to get a little something for their hard work when they don't win, and end up dieing.

Hmmmm....

kind of like 9 rings?

Expherious · Mar 13, 2011, 09:57 PM // 21:57

Whats wrong with 9 rings?

Zahr Dalsk · Mar 13, 2011, 10:07 PM // 22:07

Mildly disgruntled that I'm still banned and this guy is not.

Only mildly, mind you.

i bet you get loads of excitement out of that

Nerfnet claims that they don't want to see people grind. So many of the titles require grinding or farming of some sort. If you could complete the titles simply by playing through the games it would make many people happy.

melissa b · Mar 13, 2011, 11:27 PM // 23:27

I could see people getting banned for this or a nerf implemented.

I pretty much play Guild Wars like this all the time now we have 7 heroes, agro a group, tab out, read/watch something on the Internet while tabbing back in every minute or so to agro the next group. The only difference here is the monsters come to you in Zos Shivros.

melissa b · Mar 14, 2011, 12:14 AM // 00:14

3 problems with this.....
1. it could be abused by an alliance to capture a town ie everyone in the alliance fills their bar while sleeping
2. it hurts other people that play the mission and get less rewards because of the insane high score set by afkers
3. it awards players a title/gold for being afk and thats exactly why the old lightbringer afk farm was nerfed

mrmango · Mar 14, 2011, 01:33 AM // 01:33

derp de derp derp
Shame they probably won't change these because it's hard to balance this.

I may be wrong but I thought they said there intent was for there to be no grind needed to complete the game, and in that they succeeded.

I do however agree totally that finishing the game so you can play it in hard mode to max the title that helps you finish the game is a little silly.

The titles are there for those that want to get them and if you want them to max then you have to work at it.
But its not needed to complete any of the games the pve skills work in the general game with modest levels in them.

Even the hom can be filled to get all the material rewards without too much effort.

Anet did some things wrong but endless grind wasn't one of them we did that to ourselves.
I am even now in pre trying to get ldoa for no real reason at all I have 30 points in the hom and its a little boring back in pre but I am doing it to myself.

there are almost no titles that "NEED" grinding anymore. since the HoM calculator, ANet has made everything easy as hell. and yes with 7 hero teams you only need to tab into the game to grab aggro for your heroes, then you are off to doing whatever else you wanna do.

BoondockSaint · Mar 14, 2011, 03:12 AM // 03:12

I am a bit confused. I remember after like wave 15 no more enemies move to attack you. Just a bunch of siege turtles spawn around you.

A random Lv1 Crab will appear next to you every minute. If you don't attack it within 10 seconds of appearance, you instantly fail.

See, everything can be solved with simple ideology!
