If you had the power to change something in GW, what would you do?

I would make all weapons available in PvE as golds from normal drops. Including the Crystalline. All PvE items should be available in PvE.

I would add an auction house.

Get rid of heros. Yeah, they're better than henchies, but have virtually brought about the death of PUGs, which really kills the Multi-player aspect of the game. (Sadly, this comes just as they produce a campaign that requires people to go outside the cookie-cutter box to succeed at the various missions!)

Barring that - make all PvP (except the 1v1) areas "Hero Free." It's a PLAYER vs. PLAYER, and should stay that way.

I'd restore Heroes' Ascent to what it was before the move to Battle Isles.

(8v8, 5-team 10-minute halls, no heroes. The move itself is a minor point, I just liked the desert more than the volcano)

In real life, my kids gave me an extensive wish list for Christmas that included everything they wanted. This ensured that whatever my budget allowed that year, they would get things they wanted.

What they didn't put on their lists, were things they knew I would or could never buy for them.

So in line with that, I would like if possible:

armor storage
dye storage (could be added to Materials Storage)
rune storage

Raise skill levels and IQs of GW players by at least 3 times (probably needs to be more for some players).

chapter one is notorious for this... chapter 2 they made it somewhat better by using cardboard apartment houses to create paths... chapter 3 is pretty good with this though- there are so much less pathing issues

more storage and raising the 250 cap for items, it sucks having to use one or more of your normal limited storage slots just because u want to gather the materials needed to craft armour that needs more then 250 pieces.

Two things:

- Possibility to 'sign up' for missions and optional bonus/masters with possibility to state the build you want to use.
You can then play some more and get a message when a team is formed, which you can then join.
No more "<profession/build> lfp mission/bonus/masters" while waiting for ages because all others have the same problem and are therefore henching/hero-ing the missions.
PuG ftw.

- Some kind of auction would be nice.
Let A-net charge some commission (like 5% buyer, 5% seller), to keep economy going.
Less "W T S / W T B /Buying / Selling <item name>" in local chat
For the quick buy/sell, you could still use the trade channel.

the biggest single issue i have is the lack of guild options so here are some things I would implement

Custom leader/officer/member titles

Ability to have more than one leader so you can have a "Council" instead of a dictatorship

Guild Storage for donating items and money towards guild members

I'd like to be able to use a hue saturation slide to adjust mixed dye color after you have the requisite cyan, magenta and yellow dyes. You should be able to get any color imaginable from those 3 colors. Then add a texture slide to adjust from coarse to glossy.

I'd like to add a /kick /add emote. If you have one problem/ignorant player in your group, everyone could type /kick username to kick that player and add a replacement henchie by typing /add hench_name.

Here here! Guild Storage!! Make it costly, but you can have more than one per guild hall, each with normal and material storage. These would only be accessible from the guild hall, not through your normal storage account.

There would have to be some limit on how much someone could remove from guild storage. Otherwise the jerk you're about to kick from your guild would empty guild storage before leaving. Also some creeps would simply join guilds to empty the guild storage then leave to join another guild and do the same.

There would have to be some sort of safeguard placed on guild storage.

Auction House.. I think having a auction house would solve alot of storage problems also, I know I have alot of items in storage that I cba to sit in a town and spam trying to sell. It would also mean that players would have an easier time making money and would be less likely to turn to ebay gold.

Remove PVP and replace Sins with a GOOD class

Or at the very least complete the on-going seperation from PVE. So they can nerf the pvp side as much as they like but LEAVE the pve side alone.

i. have a screening system for potential buyers of this game
ii. make it so excessive use of capitalized letters, numbers and lower case letters is a bannable offense.
"i RoXoRz Y0o n00b f33lz Mee L337n3zz!" = annoying and just plain hard to read
iii. perm-ban any monks that join a pug as a 55
iv. perm-ban any lvl20 warriors that use frenzy
v. um.. more storage?

You do know PVP is half the game, if not more, right? And Sin is a good class. It's just played in the wrong way by 80%. It needs skill.

Frenzy isn't bad. Though it's used in the wrong way by a lot.

Uh, some people will try to crucify me for it, but here's my list:

-get rid of the complete pvp-only system: That would be the ultimate solution to the never ending balancing issue the current system causes. Would also allow more items flexibility in PvE without having to balance everything with the pvp-onlys. But from the current view on the game it would also cause the loudest cry ever heard on the forums.

-change in the fame system: They way it was intended, is fine. The way it is used/gained currently, has more negative than positive effects. Reset it, bind it to the profession the fame was gained with (no R9 IWAYers trying to play a pb-mesmer the first time but still always pointing to their rank). Or award fame for other, maybe pvp-related things too, to water down the effect it currently has (there is definately a elitismproblem, ask anybody with low or no ranks).

-completely redesign HA: the current problems are, in my opinion, a direct result of the "not so good" mapdesign, wincondition and the totally screwed classbalance. Also I'd give PvP a larger push in the offensive direction. Currently it too much encourages defensive play. Maybe tone monks down, as they have a too large synergie effect with paragons (for example, not really thought through though).

-expanding the PvE-Content instead of focussing on compelte new continents with each addon: the playerbase doesn't get too much thinned out and scattered. Also I'd implement dynamic endgamecontent and maybe make use of the instancingtechnology to really change the world (something like after building up the ascalon settlement it becomes a real outpost you can maptravel to for those completing the quests)

-more constant rise in gamedifficulty while advancing the campaign. A constant increase, not two or three sudden jumps.

-and finnaly promote teamplay: some simply things that can be done are increasing experience gain with the number of human players, increasing gold, quality of drops, etc.

Remember: this is MY opinion. I don't want to change yours, nor can you change mine.

I would love for the xunila agent that stores your items have a talk ability, and when you talk to her she says, "Would you like to go to the marketing vault?" or some other name I cant come up with. But if you say yes you get teleported to an area thats not part of any of the 3 maps kinda like battle isles but its a shop area. You can have characters set up an area where if you click on them it would open up a small area where they would have a list of items and a picture of what they were selling. You could hover your mouse over the area so you could see the weapon or whatever and its mods and it would also have a price tag next to it that you set.

So if I had like a Ssaki sword or something I wanted to sell for example. All I would need to do was go to the market vault and like set up my character to sell and go afk. And of course people would go to the marketing vault and check out other peoples items that they wanted to buy and if they wanted to buy it they just purchase it and the money auto goes to your inventory and so does the item to theirs. that way you dont have to spam WTS or WTB just go there sell what you need, or go there to look around for something you might want. and if you happen to want to haggle for something either wait till the char is online or buy/dont buy it.

If I had the power to change things I would revert the AI back to its originall settings as well as the superior Absortion Rune.I would change back Knights and Ascalon Armour. I would bring in a charactor editor and guild name editor as well as auctions houses.I would get rid of inscriptions to they are useless.

If I could change one thing about GW, I'd make Blizzard not charge people to play WoW. That way all the people who want to turn GW into "free WoW" go and play that instead.
It would solve all above wants and needs and more!

lol, thats smart and funny

auction
grouping
reconnect
innovative rework of GUI and controls (ranging from 50% health markers, minion targeting to charm pet controling and so on)
rethink the whole "rez sig" necessity
sealed play
tournament sealed play
and perfected gvg sealed play (because its the ultimate meta-game buster, imo)
and a few balances in skills or whatever that would subside a few of my erking feelings about how things "should" play in order to be of any use
and just because i had the power- Little L by Jamiroquai would play whenever I enter a district. Anyone that emotes /dance gets auto drunk and beer in thier inventory.
