I mean that would keep the balance in PvP, and give something for PvE players too look forward for. Like a godly Legendary weapon, that takes forever to beat the quest...

crimsonfilms · Jul 07, 2006, 12:19 AM // 00:19

Huh?
There are countless armors, weapons, dye colors, and etc that is PvE only. You can only bring it to PvP if you grind for it.

Second, 'Godly' stuff is against the Guild Wars philosophy that items and weapons as the determining factor.

Torn_Muffin · Jul 07, 2006, 12:20 AM // 00:20

I mean items you can't bring into PvP sorry for not clarifying.

Arkantos · Jul 07, 2006, 12:22 AM // 00:22

What kind of items are you talking about?

pve is only to have cool armor at this point.. and to be able to do all the pve stuff, of course.

if you listened to this week's woc, izzy was saying they're gunna make more pvp items to match all the pve only items already existent.. the game is more focused on the competitive [pvp!] side, so having super good pve-only stuff isn't gunna happen.

little things like an pretty axe that has stats like this

damage 35-135
plus 50 energy unconditional
and cancels out superior rune health penalties

nothing special

but pve only (a farmers simple tool)

We can have a level 40 Yeti. Then somewhere have a +50% damage against Yeti. Then somewhere else maybe a shield with +40 armor versus Yeti, or a wand that doubles damage versus Yeti. Maybe name them legendary weapons. Then have a title called legendary Yeti warrior. Then have the legendary weapons usable only by legendary Yeti warriors. This way, you have Level Up like processes in PvE that will not unbalance PvP. This is just one of many possibilities

Silly people(no offence though

Like, uh, candy canes?

konohamaru heaven · Jul 07, 2006, 01:01 AM // 01:01

What he measn I believe is a Speical weapon better than the average weapon BUT, havea code with itthat doesnt allow it to enter the pvp enviroment like how the cand canes, snowmen, etc are not allowed to be used. the wepaons should be better thanaverageweapons but not super mega overpowered.

I agree with you on that

That's a great idea! Then everyone will collect all the pieces of anti yeti gear and FARM THE F--K OUT OF THEM. Great plan, gg.

Guild Wars has PvE? Nuh-uh I don't believe you!

Sanji · Jul 07, 2006, 01:31 AM // 01:31

PvE is lacking in the difficulty department and more importantly balanced around the current level and gear cap. Maybe more variations in gear would be nice, but there really is no need to make -better- gear.

kvndoom · Jul 07, 2006, 01:31 AM // 01:31

The only disadvantage a PVE toon has is being forced to cap Elite skills instead of buying them with faction. Non-elites I just buy at Ember Light camp with my farming toon who has over 250 unused skill points and 900k gold. PVP-only players:

-are stuck with one set of armor (two is ideal) and cannot ever have a secondary armor set, be it for vanity or functionality
-cannot go to any town to buy and sell stuff
-only get 2 weapons and offhands, when ideally they need 3 sets minumum
-have no money to buy extra equipment (need PVE toon or friends / guildies to get money)
-cannot participate in festivals and special events
-cannot use candy canes to make 60% DP disappear in a flash

...and the list goes on and on. And you still want more?
