Guild Wars 2

griefers are part of the challenge though with world bosses, there will always be those that do it.

Of course there also ways around it, like the world boss they added in voss/swtor. Requires a certain buff to do the encounter which a raid group would easily get, but it would be more hassle than its worth for a griefer.

The damage increase would obviously require a hard cap of sort to prevent the one shot kills, but the hp should go on for ever. Have a 100 man raid, fine the boss has 20 bajillion hp.

Would be cool if out door bosses scale infinitely with the number of people around.

IE for every extra person increase hp by x% and for every 10 people increase damage by x%. Maybe even introduce new abilities depending on the number of people around.

Was just gonna say excellent idea then...

The problem with that is someone could gather their mates and stand near the boss, making it scale up and making it far more difficult for the people trying to take it down.

It is a good idea but it could be exploited very easily by griefers.

...he said this :rolleyes: ..and he is right, unfortunately there are types of people who go out their way to make thing worse for others.

This.
 
Its £37.99 on hmv. You're welcome :) - EDIT - Oh , although they arent listed as a prepurchase partner on the GW2 website... however that jungle rainforest retailer is and they have it for £34.97

Wait what? I've really confused myself. There are two prices for the standard edition on a site, one is £34.97 for "pre-order" and the other is £49.99 for "pre-purchase"... do you only get the headstart and beta access if you "pre-purchase" at full price?

Really looking forward to this Beta weekend. Need to use it to find the proffession I want to play on release as it's not going to be Elementalist.

Necro or engi I reckon :D

I'm still sitting on the fence too haha :p had played Ranger since vanilla Guild Wars so had my heart set on that, but it just felt a bit meh in GW2. Currently torn between Thief and Necro for my main.

Was thinking of Ranger but there are already 4-5 in my guild with only 1 necro and 2 engi's. What didn't you like about the Ranger?

Might be worth trying the ranger again :)

Afaik Engineer, Ranger and Thief have all had significant changes since the last BWE

Thanks for that info, might have to try the Ranger anyway :P
 
Asura - Ranger I think will be my final decision. Nothing quite like a tiny death dealing pewpew for PvP :p. I met a few thief players in the last test who completely ripped me a new one, they would down me in a few seconds. Might run an alt thief Charr!!

Haven't played it since the original BWE so I'll have to give it another go as MadMossy suggested :p but last I'd played the bow attacks just felt really awkward, didn't have that "meaty" feel from GW1 and the range seemed laughable even with a longbow. I also hate having to rely on pets, haven't played far enough to see if it's viable to go "solo" :(
