Take out greens
sadego
Guild Wars was a lot more fun before the release of greens. Since they came out it has made it a lot easier to get perfect items at small prices and sell items. You can keep them but make there drop ratio a lot lower and maybe make them more expensive than golds...

out of most players, those who can afford a 100k axe are 99% E-Bayers! and i dont want to get my account banned cuz i wanted a nice looking weapon!
actually for an average GW account, a 30k weapon is expensive, cuz an average account has less then 20k on it

So you like the idea of spending 150k on a perfect [nongreen] mod weapon?

Lol yes Vahn Roi is right. The perfect gold cost 100k+. Its ridiculous. Greens are just and easy way to get a nice weapons. But I've heard that some golds are better than greens. So if you want a better weapon, get a gold and spead thousands of $$. But if you just want somthing cheap and AFFORDABLE, go with the greens.

whats ANet gonna do? remove every green weapon which will get them major complaints? Do a super big rollback? think about it....

I agree with the others, green items were a good idea since they allow players to obtain modded items for a small fee compared to what it would cost to buy them. Removing greens is adding grind to the game.

I really don't think A-net would ever do this, besides, greens look good and give you a cheaper way to get greens ex. the razorstone has the sephis axe skin which are very rare.

Green weapons are the only middle class items in the game. Cheap perfect mods that are within the grasp of almost every player in the game with a minimum of effort in either getting the gold or finding it themselves. Green items need to stay since they are the only balance between the ultra high end golds that only the rich can afford and the rest of the weapons the general populace can get ahold of.

ok ummm to the poster of this topic.. you should be dragged out into the street and have the crud kicked outa you... no offense but as is PvE's only real reward IS GREENS while the PvE'rs get fame, rank, money(if they GvG and get into a toruney and win), and they only have to spend like 10 mins to get a new skill...so umm NO FRICKING WAY

Plus like others here have posted, greens are cheaper than perfect gold items. And with Factions comming out, green items may drop even lower in price.

and Dragonblood, I would think the opposite; Given the current greens will mostly likely remain exclusive to Tyria, somewhere down the rode they will become very popular items for those who like collecting elusive loot. This coupled with the lower drop rate and the recent correction of the Gear/Book exploit combined with the potential decline in Tyrian activeness with time (who the hell wants to go back to ascalon?)would logically raise the value of Greens a good deal Imho.

i doubt they will do anything about greens beacause part of what gw is about is not having to play 24/7 to be a powerful or have fun

A PvE char can't really compete with a PvP char unless the PvE char has perfect equipment.
Greens are a cheap alternative for perfect items and allows budget PvErs to compete with their own char in PvP (still I think the majority of greens are quite crappy)

Sorry to say, /not signed. The greens serve their purpose for the causal players.

I'm not sure if I should even leave this thread open.
Greens were added to the game to give perfect weapons to casual players easily. They were meant to be cheap and available to everyone.
Asking that they be made more rare and cost more is completely going against the purpose of adding them in the first place.
Green items can remove quite a large grind from the game, working to build your own perfect item can take quite some time and money, but finding a green that is almost how you want it will help you get back to playing the game how you like and not pointless farming for money.

well gw was more fun without the invention because it was harder to get good items. Now you can pull out a perfect staff at 3k (20 minutes of farming) and it takes a lot of fun out of the game...i thought more ppl would agree with me...because if you had good items before greens they really got u

The majority of greens suck, and I'd never use them under any circumstances(mostly because I PvP).
However they need to be in the game, it's lowered the weapon mod/gold weapon costs, and also given players who don't even have enough money/time to get gold weapons how they like to just play the game. Not to mention, many PvErs actualy will customize their greens, which makes them superior to a non-customized perfect gold(in terms of +% damage).
Greens aren't super awsome, they're just a middle class of weapons that everyone can afford. If you want mods like -5e +%dmg, -10 al attacking +%dmg, ect you have to get golds. If you want a certain prefix and suffix, along with a certain +% damage condition, you're going to be using golds more often than not.
Another very good thing they did is make perfect caster items a bit more viable, and allow PvPves to have more options for items like there are on the PvP creation screen.
There's really no negative to greens, except that they've slightly devalued the gold market, and pretty much destroyed the gold market for perfect caster wands/offhands. Their positives far outway their negatives.
Infact, if most greens actualy had ideal prefix and suffix mods, and +% conditional damage that went well with those mods, I'd be even more for them.

Sorry your not fooling anyone. Your motives for suggesting such a thing is pure greed. Just because you have greens that you want to sell for a high price doesn't mean its going to happen. Personally I prefer it when prices are lower it means EVERYONE has a chance to get them. Greed is what ruins online economies turning the game to hell. I think ANet would be damned before they nerf every green in the game.

Yeah I like the idea of having elite weapons. Gold, perfect, and therefore expensive weapons.

Besides, what does it matter. Now, EVERY gold is perfect, or a few points from perfect (ie 15>50 or 14>50 and +28-30 health, or whatever mods it has)

Skill vs Grind
And anet knows they need some sort of auction house / trade house and they are working on it (radio interview) but it may not be ready till around C3 but will be for everyone (c1, c2, c3+).
They should help people move/sell things and stablize prices.

greens are supposed to be unique .. the stats are just like any other max item..
same for the skin.. basically it's just a named rare item
most of the Prophecies Campaign greens are crap and wont see play a lot
most of their mod combination are crap (they just made a lil effort on Victo's axe)
their purpose are only "easy way" .. another anti-farming mechanism
in a word, .. USELESS :/
maybe with a new skin specific to em...
as for myself, i dont use greens, in a way i play as if they werent part of the game .. maybe factions ll change that.. we ll see
all the greens i dropped til now were sold to the shop or given free ^^
ex: i dont see a use for a +1/20% or 10/10 sunder weapon
