Guild Wars Reporter show

Summary: Celeste and Allona talk about Guild Halls, Guild Raids, and Guild Wars 2! Audio Version What We Did This Week Allona So close to Mawdrey, just need the Captured Light (Quick shout out to GMs Ginger, Khal, and Shaolin Shadowboxing for looking in to my “missing” germinated foxfire cluster. In which I was an idiot and they were very kind to not actually point that out.) Wuvwuved with Wardens of Destiny Guild Missions with Maven Bittermalted a bit, also helped Panther unlock some traits for one of his new Bittermalts … yes, ONE of his Bittermalts I feel like I’m missing stuff! aaahhhhh … shows every two weeks is hard! Celeste Kinda, sorta, working on mawdrey working on getting my engi to 80. currently at 73, I had gained quite a few levels in EoTM on Friday subsequently I’ve seemed to bump into every rookie commander and HUGE zergs. Did a keyfarm with my charr ranger, didn’t get crap from the chest but the levelling rewards are quite decent   Livestreaming Wednesday’s at 9:30pm EST/6:30pm PST at twitch.tv/mmoreporter.

Report from Lion’s Arch   Guild Halls http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/10/03/guild-wars-2-requests-input-on-guild-halls/ https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/game/gw2/CDI-Guilds-Guild-Halls summary of features proposed https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/game/gw2/Guild-Hall-CDI-The-complete-summary-edition/first#post4473609 Celeste’s Favorites: 20 members means you get a ‘basic’ guild hall, I honestly think this is just fair Guild halls are ‘Unstable Mist Fractals’ this is to justify there are millions of them without them being on the map Guild Jobs: A board where members can go to, inside the guildhall, and accept jobs for rewards (imagine an individual bounty for merits) Least favorite: Guild achievements to unlock trims for guild capes, Import GW1 guild cape with an NPC that allows us to customize it (NO CAPES!) Allona’s Favourites: Let every guild get a guild hall automatically, for free, when they hit 20 members Visitor’s Area or Public Room of Guild Halls openly accessible to all players once built. Zone to recruit/show off. Hall of Portraits: a gallery of portraits of the members Least Favourite: remove fairly large swaths of underwater areas to accommodate Guild Hall placement in the game world ~A: I love underwater ... C: Just make it like SeaLab (2021)! Underwater (but not) guild halls!   Guild Raids CDI Incoming http://blacklionchest.co.uk/posts/guild-raids It was also the topic of #QuestionSunday over on DragonSeason’s twitter https://twitter.com/DragonSeasonCom/status/518831488054611969 https://twitter.com/djperkysaurus/status/518845163201122304 “guild only instance events you  buy with merits and drop cool deco for guild halls.” https://twitter.com/MysticalMesmer/status/518930295236476928 “I don't see raids being substantially different from existing fights.” A: Honestly, I’m not overly excited about raids. I never got to the point of WoW in being able to play them. They always seemed to be the divider line between elite players and … non … elite players. Now, GW2 is a very different game, so I would figure they would work very hard to make sure community is maintained if raids get introduced. I suspect they would be something that I just wouldn’t get to play … at least not with my smaller guilds. Unless they work them like a regular dungeon that can work with 5+ players and then scale up as more people enter? I can see that working pretty well. Okay, I talked myself into being a little intrigued by this … C: I have the feeling that even if these are added to the game in some form or fashion it will end up being a game mode,
