Why isn't there a Priest of Balthazar in the PvP areas?

Actually, what he said was Kryta, not Gates of Kryta. Gates of Kryta is one of the mission outposts in Kryta. Kryta as a whole spans quite a bit, look at the interactive map or even read the game book if you don't believe it.

OMG. Yeah, I used Kryta short for Gates of Kryta. Believe or not guys, other players don't refer to a place by it's whole name nor speak of the map areas (We say Shiverpeaks rather Shiverpeak Mountains.) Big clue was the word district, which was obvious I referring to a landmark. You can pretend to act clueless that's fine with me, but don't paraphrase me.

Sorry, I didn't notice that you posted "Kryta," I thought it was the other guy. Still, you should make it clear. Most people I know see Kryta and think Kryta, not Gates of Kryta.

sorry to disagree but you are wrong.

pre sear is completely a separate place and not linked

you might as well say fort runic pre sear is the same as fort runic post sear

each is separate and complete unto itself

the districts are not counted twice

try door number 2 next time

Most people don't refer to the map, it just you and spike agreeing with each other posts. NOBODY else has step in to prove you right more over, I haven't seen anyone referring to the whole map. Like teenagers, you agree with each others post and THINK you are right. If you don't believe me on the lingo then go to other forums.

Okay, I will admit I don't understand gibberish. But my guess is your saying uh...that pre and post searing are not the same area?

I didn't say they were, I said they were linked because both are starting areas. You automatically start in Pre-searing Ascalon and after you defeat the boss, you are teleported outside of Post-searing Ascalon's gates. Most players run into the near landmark to rest or movitated by the quest giver outside. Thus, this is where pre and post searing are linked and unavoidably high in population/districts. But this all didn't explaining since we've all played the game and know this.

I could be wrong and I that's why I'm not trying to paraphasing you.

What he is saying "Guru" is that Pre and post are 2 different worlds, independent of each other and that the districts in pre are not counted or listed in post seering. I am sorry but on this you are wrong. The tomb, where it is fun, usually has the lowest amount of districts during any time that I am online, 9ish to about 12 - 2ish CST, usually at this time it is Draknor (113 districts), Lion's Arch (30 - 50 Districts), and that is just 2 places. That would throw your numbers way out the door. Sorry but this is a losing battle and the districts speak for themselves, with you only at Kryta Area you are not even seeing the whole map and you are basing your collective statements on what you can see not what is truthful. Get to Draknor, go to the temple of ages and then you will have the real numbers. In fact if we just use one area you will find that PvE players far out number PvP players.

Man, this is the least civil forum I've ever seen.
I believe I addressed the forum issue just 3 posts before your comment. I dont believe that the Priest should be moved into the arena, but some other solution should be found to allow the PvP Characters to move along a little faster. An example of this would be to, as I stated before, increase the Faction that is recieved per kill and win by the consecutive wins, or all together possibly. With the exception of a few this is a very civil communication between ppl who enjoy a game in 2 very different ways. It is sad that PvE and PvP cannot just play nice but it is a fact and you will just have to deal with it because it will come out when ever there is a difference of opinion. Like you everyone is intitled to their opinion and this forum allows them and myself to speak theirs. If you would like to be upset please do so but direct it to those that are flaming not those that are communicating.

Nad: You said something so true. It's like I said earlier, these guys aren't arguing about the same point anymore. They are just making post and agree with other like it's game.

First off, the man can speak for himself. Don't paraphase him. Secondly, you didn't read my post because what you said because completely ignore everything said in the sentenced. You ignored the fact I said both pre and post searing Ascalon are both linked because (key word: because, cause and effect) they are both starting points. The reason those districts are so high is that every characters has to start there.

I was just in Lion's Arch a moment ago. Only 9 districts, not counting international. And tombs had up 19 people the night that I went. Other times it had up to 12 to 17.

To the OP, nice observation, my guess as to why they didnt put priests in PvP areas is simply because they didnt forsee this problem. It is a problem, and I would think its easily fixable.

So, yeah, Im all for priests in PvP areas.
Lol fool. I can see with your observations of the game your about as bright as a blackhole.

Who is going to buy the expansions? If additional pvp content is released then I guess people who only pvp will buy the expansion too, but I would imagine that A.net wouldnt want to break the game for those who dont buy the expansion so the pvp content will be nice albeit unnecessary. If pvp content increase/addition occurs.

Its my view that expansions are more likely to be PvE, as not taking part in PvE doesnt really break the game for you. Using this train of thought its quite easy to see that Expansions = a.nets future. Breaking the PvP game for people without the expansion = disaster.
I would assume, although assumptions are bad, that the bulk of the expansions will be new areas/arenas, new content monsters and storylines, and perhaps another type of character. As iv said you dont want to break pvp for those who dont buy the expansions so theyll have to tread extremelly carefully with it.

The point im trying to make is that future expansions I believe will be aimed at the section of the fan base who enjoy PvE for the most part. Hence getting players involved in PvE could be what financialy secures a.nets future, rather than the PvP game which secures their reputation.

Thats just my view.

Forget the starting points Draknor is not a starting point, Lion's Arch, Temple of Ages, Henge of Denravi, Amnoon all have more districts available during the hours that I am in game (Friday (most of day) and Saturday(Afternoon only) included) then the Tombs. Even at Lions Arch you still have not completed nearly enough of the map to even come close. You are arguing a point that you do not have the information to argue.

As for there only being 9 districts in Lion's Arch well there is over half of the Tombs and I can pick the rest up and surpass the 17 districts with one more location. This is not a debate anymore it is you trying to be right when it is impossible. Even if we say every location has to have atleast one district for the game to function, on a district count PvE would have more districts then PvP (counting all the arenas). And I would not count per-seering and give you 10 (starting) districts in Ascalon and I would still have more districts in PvE and I LIKE PvP Battle.

After reading eventhorizen's post, I think I'm going to get out here because it's getting stupider and stupider with every post.
