What are you hoping for in today's update?

Personally, I'm hoping for an increase in faction from arena and tombs, because it is nowhere near the rewards of GVG, and not everyone has a guild. I think maybe 10 faction for winning a fight in the arena and 35-60 faction in the tombs. In tombs, it is often difficult to find a good PUG, which is what most people play with. I got tired of PVE because there are just certain things that are totally lame and boring, such as not being able to use henchmen very well vs mursaat.

Hopefully, Anet will raise the faction rewards because it just takes too long to unlock skills. It takes me roughly 6 hours of PURE arena to unlock a basic skill, and longer in tombs because of down time/losing. PLEASE PLEASE raise faction rewards.
If this is in the wrong forum, I'm sorry.

We aren't getting a update today

Probably not for a month atleast.

Considering that we have had almost consistant weekly updates from day one, I'm pretty sure we'll be getting one today.

Ignore him. he's a troll.

Higher drop rates on ectoplasms or obsidian shards. 10k per piece promotes the need for farming and is totally against what Anet claims it stands for.

Yeah, didn't they lower the drop rates for shards and globs a while ago?

I am hoping for µß3® £337 4®|\/|0® 4|\|Ð \/\/34p0|\|$. |\/|0®3 \/\/4¥$ 0ƒ |°\/\/|\|1|\|9 4 |\|00ß 4|\|Ð 7|-|3 4ß1£17¥ 70 $p4|\/| 7|-|3 ƒ0®µ|\/|$ \/\/17|-| µpÐ473 7|-|®34Ð$. (we have that last one btw)

I will take whatever they will give, I am not really hoping for anything specific.

I fail to see how it's spamming. After browsing the front page of riverside inn this is the ONLY update thread.

I wasn't trying to be mean, and btw there are a lot of update idea threads. pretty much every single one in sardelac sanitarium is an update idea thread.

I hope we don't get an update today. No, not until next week. Because I soooo looooovvveeeeee reading internopsp's moan and whine threads about Anet not updating every single week because that's the only thing that will make him/her happy.

/end sarcasm

Any addition Anet can provide would be welcome. I enjoy playing it now, I'll most likely enjoy playing it after another patch.

Anything will be just great, whether it's this week, next week, or next month.

While it would be nice to see that 15k Druid Set, I have no means of actually affording one...so it might even be better if Anet can hold off on that. =P

What I'd love to see updated perhaps showing the caster or team what the AoE range is when a spell is cast. Sucks to drop healing spring on a team, only to find that they're a shoulder's length away from the range. It doesn't have to be a glaring spot on the environment map...maybe even just a small ping on the compass map. Like when dropping the Sceptre of Orr. That was nice and handy.

I'm also hoping for a small increase in faction points for PvP battles. I think ANet did the right thing by setting them low though. It's better to set low and have to adjust up, than set it too high and have to bring it down. Could you imagine the deluge of moaning threads if they had set it high and were bringing it down? Smart play ANet.

Sorrows Furnace or Grenths footprint will make me happy, I doubt we'll get either....but heres hoping.

I would have to agree. It would have been a disaster if arena matches gave 20 or so faction points for winning.

Having energy indicators for those in your party would be great. So those who keeps pulling aggro one mob after another CAN CLEARLY SEE HOW MUCH THEY'RE SCREWING THE REST OF THE TEAM AND THEREFORE MAXIMIZE THEIR EFFICIENCY IN PISSING PEOPLE OFF!!!! >_<"

I'm sorry, I'm at work and I'm tired and I want to go home and just play. But ya, having energy indicators for your teammates would be nice.

at least 1 of the 2 new areas would be a dream come true for this kid

Who says there's an update today? I don't

I havn't followed any news on the new areas, and I'm not quite sure what they'll be like. Are they supposed to be like FoW and UW?

Depends on how you mean. In difficulty, probably. In style, they'll be in the Southern Shiverpeaks across from Snake Dance.
