Party sharing gold
Tender Wolf
Okay so we all know that when someone in the party picks up gold coins, it shares the cash among the people. But why is it necessary for this to occur when you're in a hero/henchman only party? Or even if when you're with one other person and the rest of the party is heroes? It's not like they're going to spend it or do anything with it. Gold should only be given to real players, and if they're all in the same party it could be shared, but if it's a hero/henchie only one, then no it shouldn't be.

Because it's kind of a way to tax players, because Anet can't come up with a decent gold sink, it's one of the ways they use to regulate the economy. When you have 7 henchmen in your party, you get the same amount of gold if you had 7 people in your party.
If things were the way you suggested, there would be no point in grouping with other people, as the entire game can be easily beaten with Heroes/Henchies, and if you get the same amount of gold as if you had just yourself farming.... I don't see a point to using other people
Yet another one of your suggestions that is made just to make the game easier

ITS TOO HARDDDDD

Because then all human parties will be less in demand. I'm all for being able to h/h, but encouraging h/h teams like this isn't needed. Giving h/h parties any advantage over human parties is just wrong.

Also, that's the price you pay for the convenience of h/h teams...

Sigh I actually feel bad for saying it but the guys right. Sorry Miss Tender Wolf but PvE, Gold Accumulation etc is too easy if anything. If however you need any advice on why you might find these area's too hard and constructive criticism then feel free to PM me sometime.

Let's make it so that all of the drops in a one human + 7 AI team go to the player too.

The heroes and henchmen take their cut for a reason. That is partly why people do solo farming.
This is just a simpler solution instead of them writing code that detected how many human players were around, and dropping the right amount of gold for that number.
I just cannot see any reason why we need to pick up our gold. It should automatically appear in our wallets.

Some people prefer hero/henchmen parties. I've had more luck with them than real people because real people can be so stupid and won't listen to directions. And some people can't solo farm...

Cute answer: Because Stephan needs pub money to keep his beer belly up to spec.
Real answer: Because then you'd be giving H/H players a monetary advantage over players that team up.

I would agree so the gold you see is the gold you get, instead of it getting shared, if the drops where decreased:
.Typical 150gold drop -> 50 gold drop.
Party of 8: They get 50 gold each. 400 gold total
Party of 1 (solo or +AI): She gets 50 gold. 50 gold total.
I would agree with that, to praise teams.
But NOT to take the AI out of the share.

why do you deserve ALL the gold when you did 1/8th the work?
If I got all the gold when I h/h I'd have no reason what-so-ever to farm or even play the PvE game except for titles.

I will ask the mods who read this thread to PM Tender Wolf and explain why her posts get the reactions they do. Maybe, if she hears polite criticism from an authority, she will understand and change.
Tender, 90% of your ideas are bad. Some are not only bad, they are game breaking. Even though people flame you, read what they say, and consider WHY they are flaming you.

What's the point of solo farming if you make the same amount of money with 7 hench/heros to help you.
Vinraith
I'm about as supportive of solo and small group play as anyone can be, but even I wouldn't argue that solo players should get 8 times the gold a player in a PUG would. Sorry, that's just inane.
mystical nessAL
I believe monsters should drop GP depends on the group. The higher your party is, the higher GP dropped yo uget. For example; If you have party of 4 yo uget around 100gp, if party of 8 y ouget 300-400 per monster, and it's doubled if its from a boss.

They are like mercenaries and take their share of the gold, please stop making these complaining threads, you are just making yourself look like an idiot who can't play the game.

I'm poor, but my excuse is I have too little time to farm because I'm doing an internship.
I feel the "make heroes and henchies free" are the worst, more for less thread.
Title threads I get, many titles are too grindy, so asking for less grind is acceptable.
Asking for free help to kill stuff that drops loot, gold and greens is like asking for money to accumulate in your account, over time while you are doing nothing.
Every ally over your self is an advantage, it should be logical the players with the most skill are the ones that kill the foes with as small an advantage as possible. Guildwars is (supposed to be) a skill > time game, so the players with the most skill should be rewarded with the most gold, period.
Now, like me, using minions, or spirits (stopped using pets after the pet corpse nerf) to gain advantages that the game doesn't count as having less skill is taking advantage of balance issues, same for 55ing.
It's not perfect as you can just find most of it on the web, but having at least a few people try to improve their skill in finding better/funner balance issues to take advantage of or new areas to farm is better than just giving everyone everything for free.
================================================== =====
What would be a good improvement, is if it was shown how much money you got from the split every time money was divided.
I don't really care if my "party shares 207 gold" I care if I got 25 or 26 gold from that. That is the real important info, I couldn't really care less how much we shared I wanna know what my share is.
================================================== =====
Actually if you'd listen to and observe the henchies and heroes you'd know they actually have lives to spend the money on aside from the time they are standing under AoE effects or hanging around in a outpost.
I'm sure Menlo needs all that gold to keep up with this even increasing list of girlfriends.
Herta probably needs the money to pay the alimonies for her first and second husbands.

What I would like to see, is a henchmen or hero being able to pick up the damn gold. If they get their cut and the gold drops next to them, they can pick it up for once, lazy bastards.

seriously tho, I agree. If they automatically get the items for them then they should also use some initiative and pick up gold drops in the nearby range.

If you can get more benefits in AI party, then what will be the point to be with humans? It's a lot funnier when there are not h/h and i dont want to be the *no one can help me because they all do it with heroes and i don't have any* person. This would be the end of REAL cooperation.

I disagree with this idea for the exact same reason as Arkantos. Further degredation of Human groups (if that's even possible) shouldn't happen.
And in reverse...an idea is an idea, however bad or unpopular it might be.
Users don't need to post flames when responding to unpopular ideas, just a "/notsigned" with a sentence or two explaining, without resorting to put-downs, why you disagree is all that is required, unless you wish to elaborate on what could be done to improve the suggestion.
Please keep this thread clean.

LMAO Same thing I was thinking, I was gonna start a pole to see who thinks which one posts the worst ideas.
Anyway......
Yeah it sucks the henchies take yo cash, but it is what it is, its a balance. It has to be there. If you CAN'T solo then find an area you can do with 2, or 3 or 4 henchies and get a bit more of the split of cash.
