I'm happy about the guild matching seeing as the guild im in (rank 600 or so) keeps fighting guilds ranked 8000 or worse. I feel really bad when we have to play them.

Good update - nice tweaks - I like the Necro armor enough to plop down the 75k+!

It's wierd seeing Energy gain displayed for Bonnetis and Balth Spirit. I think that's new - I remember seeing it pre-update for Bow Shot/Axe Hit with Vampiric, but not for the Monk stuff. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

It seems like Anet dug themselves a huge hole with the Halloween update. Now every holliday people expect huge events. Does anyone realize how hard it is to implement updates like that? Still people complain about how they don't have their Christmas update.

Anet should have never done the Halloween update. Then people wouldn't expect holliday updates and complain about them now, and for every upcoming holliday.

The halloween stuff was beautiful and fun but i'm glad it wasn't too long as after the first 2 days of people asking when the king was coming it go old and i started avioding lions arch and other major cities apart from to sell runes and materials.

I think keeping it short and sweet is the way to go.

Are you kidding? 15k glads looks terrible. I bought 15k platemail instead just because of that.

Eet GnomeSmasher · Dec 16, 2005, 12:21 AM // 00:21

And also a LOT of people hated the 15k female druids armor.... people will always always see things differently than another.

Well Anet made their bed now they must lay in it.

I didn't expect anything for thanksgiving because thanksgiving is an American holiday and not a lot of other countries celebrate it.

But come this ....uhhhh well (this isn't chrismas for everyone)....... Holiday Season is celebrated by a lot of religions and retailers love it

. So if Anet put something in for Halloween you better bet we want something for this holiday season

Theres only one expensive armour i have seen that i liked i think it was a fissure necro one he had spikes coming out of his skin looked sweet.

I use a odd combination for my warrior and never plan on spending more than 1.5k for an armour unless i'd get some better stats maybe in Chapter 2.

glads chest and leggings for +5 energy
knights boots for damage reduction
Lieutenant's Helm for 50% reduce hex times
Stonefist Gauntlets for Lengthens knockdown

They've gone and broken foreign language input.

I can't input kanji or kana at all, which means that I can't very well speak in-game with friends that live back home that have characters on the American servers (who don't understand very much English at all).

Chinese/Korean input seems to be working (totally useless to me). Why?

The reason Anet had to do teh Halloween event, or some sort of event, was because they PROMISED events like this. They dug themselves in a hole from the start, so to speak, and it is good they did ro some people wouldnt be as pleased with the game. As well as Halloween, Gaile said they would definatley do something for Christmas. Your right, if they didnt do them, people wouldnt expect events. But that would alos make people like me stop playing and would leave me more frusturated with Anet than many people are now because it has not come yet. And people do not complain about not having a event for every single holiday, but this one was promised that it would come. If they didnt promise them from the start, Id agree with you.

Personally, I do not like the Tormentors, though I do appreciate that they have finally implemented it so there is more variety. Thanks Anet.

I'd like to know what they meant by Start Menu. A jab at Windows?

Funny thing is that I updated when I got home and it did not update the login screen so I left it and came back after dinner, I checked the guildwars.com site and saw that the armor was updated.

It not bad, just expected more. Maybe because we had to wait sooooo long for it

Here is mine, Darth Psp

NekoZ · Dec 16, 2005, 01:15 AM // 01:15

Eh. I think it should of been a bit more than that after months of waiting as well. Glad I stuck with Necrotics.. but then again atleast they put SOMETHING different even though Gaile said it was going to look awesome. Oh well..

Sir Skullcrasher · Dec 16, 2005, 01:22 AM // 01:22

I like the menu changes.

Than again.... wish i got 75k and a necro for this armors!

fenix · Dec 16, 2005, 01:27 AM // 01:27

Nice update, it all sounds pretty good. Necro armor is done, which will finally shut up all the whining necro's. Good work Anet

Chazeah · Dec 16, 2005, 01:38 AM // 01:38

tormentors looks pretty good actually, and too bad they nerfed the sac thing, it made my life as a order nec real easy sometimes

peace
