Wel done Anet they made the same mistake like with diablo 2.
The game is balanced for the power gamers.

They listen to the wrong people who only want it harder and harder.

They evened the playing field by offering those wonderful consumables to offset the horrible monsters that delve within!

I'm still not sure if the consumables stack (with other consumables, not each other).

Well depends..:> If you use hero's it can be really tough unless you find one of the few builds they can do without screwing it up every 5 mins.

Hey Sparda this is lvl 20 content, are you confusing GW:EoTN with Istan or Shing Jea?

So... can I have your stuff?




What are you WHINING about, anyway? Norn tourney? Dungeon? Definitely not the primaries and final boss. I used a prot hero, mm, and a nuker throughout the WHOLE game with the SAME BUILDS until I reached the G.D. and that was the only time I changed builds. I didn't even use frigid armor, and I'm the tank. Hopefully you actually LEAVE and stop complaining after this.

Guild Wars is easy. Guild Wars needs to be harder. If Guild Wars is too hard for you, I know a great easy game you should like.

it has to do with GW:EN iff you used common sense you would have know couse it's in de GW:EN Thread page.
They closed to many people out of the game couse all the stuff you need to pay big dollar for it.
The hall of moneybags (as i call it) has only protential for high end stuff.
So i can't sent my stuff some endgame items and some other nice greens and golds to GW 2.
So i need to spent alot of money te get something out of gwen
i admit i have collected 700/800k ingame over the last year and a half.
But still then you need to pay big dollar for armor that are freaking reskins.

Arkantos... I want your babies.

OP - GW PvE ain't hard, nowhere near so on NM. Take henchies. C-Space. Win.

Oh, and about money? ... You NEED 15k armour... why?
Yes, the HoM only accepts l33t-haXx skins... but there's gotta be summat to keep people grinding to GW2.

oktybuybuy sparda From the time i spend during the preview weekend, I found GWEN to be really, stupidly, amazingly easy!! I explored all the area there with just heroes and henches and got myself to rank 7 norn in 2 days!

I dont see where the hard bits where!

Granted that was a preview, but be realistic... this is the last ever expansion it IS intended for high end content!

What were you expecting?

The ones with the most money and stuff Do they have to get the expensive stuff? No, they don't. The expensive stuff is for more experienced players who want to earn something that looks good. The Hall of Monuments is for people with big epeen.

GWEN has potential for every player. The Hall of Monuments is the only thing in GWEN for people with more money, but the Hall of Monuments does not need to be used.

You do not need 1 gold to get max armor/max weapons, so stop complaining about money and the price of items.

The ones with the most money and stuff note this official and not just a guess

it was stated that for very good reasons any and all GW1 to GW2 unlocks would be cosmetic and give exactly zero advantage over a new player who had a bare HOM or was new to the game completely.

everybody will get an equal start on GW2 so why the complaints?

if anything inherited gave an advantage i would be leading the outrage parade myself.

Just wanted to point out...

Sparda, first of all, you make it sound like we are playing WoW (or D2) with level caps that go up to 70, 80, or 99. We're playing guild wars remember? You are a essentially a 'power gamer' once you hit level 20, and you should know how easy that is.

Now assuming that EotN is really "much harder and harder", we have justification. 1.) if you don't want 'harder and harder', you already have THREE regular campaigns to play on. 2.) By the time your done with any OR all of those campaigns, I think it's pretty obvious that the game is almost too easy as a whole. Now you're complaining that an expansion is too hard? They're expecting you to know how to play GW right, which is another reason that it's a mere expansion rather than a standalone.


Plus, I'm currently enjoying EotN and I am no hardcore player. In fact, I'm one of the regulars who plays like once or twice a month, yet I'm still finding EotN a smooth ride. I don't have lots of gold, or lots of real money. I don't even have awesome equips. I'm still using regulars!

TBH I like hard, sure it pisses me off and there should be a way to skip the hard parts (Well you cant skip em but you make em easier with the consumables) but I was a tad dissapointed with Eotn, its not so much hard as frustrating, you die and die and die and just keep going and you cant really fail. I have been palyingf for approx 20 hours, am allmost finished (1 or 2 quests away) and have henched all the way, my heros have crap builds (apart from a mm) and its just frustrationg, HARDER I SAY!

D2-constant grinding,limited skill selection and when you get sick of being something gotta remake a character and grind some more

And to the guy who posted this thread. gwen isnt that hard. you must throw axe hammer and sword skills together while using a scythe. or your heroes echo mend.

I wish this game was more like Diablo 2, last I checked Blizzard didn't go out of its way to stop people from making money in the game (I'm looking at you loot scaling). Also, since this is an expansion, I really was hoping that it would get harder, and I was kind of disappointed. The only thing hard about it is that in the Asuran areas the elemental enemies blind all the mele characters and your monks waste all their energy getting rid of blind, except that doesn't work since the elite they use to blind you has (I think) a 2 second recharge, but you can just keep throwing yourself at them and work your way through any area.

By that same logic we can say that gw is a grindfest for all those stupid factions and reskins. Oh and by the way, I rather have a smaller number of unique skills than over a thousand rehashed skills that are out of balance

Hm... D2, 90% of the things immune to a certain element, want a new element? Make a WHOLE NEW CHARACTER at level 1. Want a Tal Rasha set? Lucky you. The files on your computer are easy to modify. Make your own set! Might have been good at the time, but it gets old fast. Guild Wars has more variety and less restrictions.

http://www.grandvideos.com/file/140_...cleansing.html guild wars is a little harder? The fact that you can have 7 henchies/heroes makes it a lot easier and not counting total immunity to one of your skill lines in d2 makes it infinitely easier.
