Bored as fuck, feeling grumpy and listless and so very awake, so:

Guild Wars 2: Opinion Piece.

The usual disclaimer: Just my personal opinion, and only at level 40. I’d wait until I’ve seen all the game, but I'm kind of bored…

Long, as per usge. )

Pros:
1-24. Yes!

Something to note: Some of those things have changed relatively recently. MF used to be on gear like the Diabo system you mentioned. The shift to make it account-bound and use the salvage system happened around when I first hit level 80. (Which was nice because I only ever had to worry about one exotic set.)

Neutral:
1. Think of the old system as the upgrade from driving to the post office to opening up gmail. For that matter the only reason they make us go to the TP NPC to pick stuff up instead of "delivering" it to us is so that they can sell the convenience item that lets you spawn a TP NPC at your location. Which I don't begrudge them.

2. You clearly have not seen my guardian facerolling. If you feel unable to faceroll, it is because you are playing an elementalist in light armor that is masterwork quality or lower. If you're trying to faceroll things higher level than you, then...Ha. Ha. Ha. No ( ... )

15. Agree. The screen is usually too much of a clusterfuck for clicking. Hitting 1 is generally your best bet...when not in the open world surrounded by yellows. For more controlled selection, yeah, tabbing. I've found that initial selection is pretty consistently the thing front and center in your screen? Anyway it takes getting used to ( ... )

Omg HAHAHAAH I had to click on "read one suspicious comment" xD You SPAMMER. And ikr, I feel like this totally belongs on an actual review site.

I FUQING HATE FIGHTING UNDERWATER TOO and yet the Maze Fiasco happened :/ :/ >:|

Ya I really only buy salvage kits and cotton candy. .. Actually most of the times I don't even use Masterwork cause I can't bear to, since I'm just levelling and I don't wanna bind them. :P

No Mounts was originally a con but I moved it to neutral because it's more of a personal preference thing than an actual "disadvantage", since haste buffs work well and the default run speed is pretty fast.

I like face smashing too :(

Too bad you can't mute me, huehuehue.

xD Paladins < 3 And we don't even need thaaat many, since Retributions really only have a few regular ones for deepes. But that being said, the WoW talent / spell / combat system's changed quite a bit from 4.3 to 5.0; now we only have 5 (I think) active talent points, 3 major glyphs (the minor ones are purely cosmetic - e.g. paladins can kneel down and ( ... )

Oh, yes. Very good, very professional. So impressed. /clap

I SAID I WAS SORRY ABOUT THAT!

No wonder you have as much money as me... You just AH all your green stuff?

But sprint-y stuff all have cool downs. Mounts are constant.

You mute yourself. Otherwise, there's always /blist. >:)

Paladins! ...Is all I can contribute to this part. I don't even remember much about the skills and know nothing of the new ones. I was gonna buy Panda-Land just to update the account, but I realized the sale ended. Maybe next time.

Sankyu, sankyu. T-that's fine. I-it's not like I wanted to be your friend anyway. ;_;

Speed buffs are constant too now that Anet made them stack. Most of them. ANET, MAKE MES FOCUS 4 STACK ALREADY YOU BASTAR-*clears throat* You could have infinite speed if you used staff as your offhand; you never swap out of greatsword for open world fights anyway.

The real problem is that you want to spend real money to be hax in-game. :>

And here, just for you.

Leng Lui, I know, since I've had many people call me that, and not in a "excuse me" way :P
