Get Rid of the Stupid NPC allies from WiK......

You can close the thread.

You finish the WiK quests, those stupid peacekeeper and uber-powerful mantle mobs stop spawning?

SWEET.

Not until they shove the ridiculous amount of henchmen in our guild halls into one corner, so I can actually find the npc I'm looking for.

the WM stop spawning??? *cry*

I don't see how they can really harm farms or runs much.

You don't see how an npc that takes the attacks away from you and aggros everything can harm a farming run?

Not to go off topic but if you have even one of the "Wanted" bounties, they still show up.

As for the NPC's showing up, I can see how that might affect your farming run. I don't solo farm so they don't bother me.

they made it so you cannot farm it...
I have to disagree with this.
good luck...

They only show up in the zone that the wanted bounty is for so it will only be a couple zones

Because everybody is just farming the crap out of Kryta. Riiiiight.

No, they show up in all zones.

As to the actual thread...*shrug* to everyone who isn't a farmer these allies are actually very helpful. Their skillbars are great, and they all have their own unique skill too. Vanquishing Kryta after you finish the WiK content would be great. It'd be nice if there was a way to opt-out of the ally, but it doesn't look like there is, so...find a new farm spot? idk...

Why not just give us the option to order them to follow us or stay?
It would also help a lot when you want to lure a group instead of just charge right into it.

Someone who aggroes everything prevents you from using any pulling and such is very annoying, not onlt for farming. And not all of them are useful, IMHO, I only remember the mesmer, the necro, and Shadow to provide some real help.

Does Thackeray still appear as one of these allies? That would be funny.

"I wonder what happened to Thackeray, Langmar, Greywind..."
"Oh, Thackeray's here right now!"

They stop you from certain farming builds, so switch to a different farming build that doesn't rely on the mobs suiciding on you or pumping energy into you. If you don't have another farming build then get one or go play elsewhere.

Who knows, people might have to start thinking while they play again, that hasn't happened much since the loot nerf.

lol They dont prevent you from using any builds they just make it annoying. The fact that you think that being productive while farming is such a bad thing is hilarious. Also, how is killing things faster going to make you have to think less than say killing things one at a time...... And wow i didnt know that people were thinking more while using the exact same strategy before the loot nerf with similar builds.

If they only affect farms, then that's unimportant.

OH, and if anyone bothers to reply this, just imagine I reply with the same sentence again:
- If they only affect farms, then that's unimportant.

In a very monotone way. Like a bureaucrat in a government building's window.

You mean like Shadow Form, Spirit Bond, Shield of Absorption and tons of other skills that were nerfed because of farming abuse? Or skills that didn't get reverted with the PvE/PvP split because they might affect farming?

Your right farming is so unimportant in MMORPGs........... idiot


and yes i consider guild wars an MMO for anyone who wants to be technical

Depends on what kind of farming you mean, usually in MMO's you farm resources/materials not mobs because they drop rare stuff.

I think they should keep them
