Default Hey Anet Let's have a No Heroes No Henchies Weekend??!

Yeah that sounds great /signed. Except of course still allow them in the H V H arenas, but, take them out of PVE to promote GROUPING and PUGGGING and all around FAMILY FUN TOGETHERNESS.

From all the bitching and moaning about not being albe to use heroes and henchies everywhere this would be a nice change once inawhile to get people back together again. I think Heroes were bad for the game myself even though I do enjoy their power they just made finding groups and pugs that much harder because more people began to rely on heroes than on each other. So, let's have a No Heroes and No Henchies weekend.

Only if we can mix it in with a one hit kill from players weekend, only im sure some PUGS would still fail.

Playing with real people is so much more fun. If I wanted a solo experience, I wouldn't be playing an MMO.

Ooops. There goes 99% of the GW population.

I think it would be great. I've mused about it before. Such an anti-social cynical lot around here anyway, lol. I use heroes and henchmen just like anyone else, but have to admit I miss the early Prophecies days where even doing a quest you had people forming parties. Its just for the weekend. People actually CAN work together in a party when they need to. I remember seeing it happen, but alas its something lost in the mists of legendary days long past.

Probably wont happen. Too many people so vocally against it. I think it'd be a hoot myself.

How about "You Play Your Way and I Will Play Mine"? In fact, that could be every day and not just for a weekend.

Because most people don't agree with me.

Forcing people to play with others = bad. Why? Most of the PvE population suck. The weekend would be horrible. All the good players would be playing with their guild/alliance/friends, while the people who enjoy to keep to themselves are either forced to not play at all, or group with the rest of the horrible GW players.

Idea is good, I agree. But hell no, it's not possible. For example I met strange player today, in gate of madness. He claimed he's healer - he was Mo/N with Orison, healing breeze, animated bone minions, vampiric touch, deathly swarm, cap signet and res signet. How the hell should I be able to play with such people? I would rather take a short break and play Team fortress until weekend is over

Check out the average pug. If you really want to be forced to play with warriors that aggro the world, monks that are uber melee tanks, dervishes that have daggers, and a bunch of other horrible players with horrible skills, go ahead. Don't force others to go through that too.
