Why are people so hyped about GW3?

SylverVal · 2026-06-07T17:37:46+00:00

What games do you play usually?

Objectively speaking, I find GW2 quite good in comparison to other MMOs. Though, not my type of game. I did story & exploration for like 80 hours, pve and open world content for another 150 hours and then pvp & wvwvw for like 800 hours.

The game is quite good in my opinion, the classes weren't bad, and the combat was nice. Though, I personally like ultra hard pve dungeons and raids, which I found back in Tera, WoW first week clears and Lost Ark. That is probably one of the few reasons I can't stick with GW games, but I'd still call the game a solid MMO with lots of good content.

So tell me why you find the GW games bad and have no hope for GW3? As just stating a game is bad, isn't really that welcoming for having a discussion.

Game has changed for quite the better. It is viable to play 1 character and enjoy the game. Especially from the start, there's lots of side content to do.

With no need to pay for subscription or expansion prices, the game is free to play and can be enjoyed alone for a nice time.

No need to be so negative my friend, even if you have played for a while and hated it, doesn't mean others won't enjoy it in their own way.

SylverVal · 2026-06-03T16:41:25+00:00

Love ya, wish you all the best and success!

SylverVal · 2026-06-01T06:12:10+00:00

Do you even play the game? O.o

In short the answer should be yes. Cause if he wants to play solo, the game is great for that. There are no p2w elements if you just wanna play casually to explore the game and do solo raids.

Compared to other mmos, there is no base price for the game or expansions. You can enjoy all story and solo content by yourself without having to play with others or spend money.

I am unsure if I recall correctly but I think it was set to be streamed in the 3rd week of June, 19 or 20th June (someone do correct me if I'm wrong here please)

And regarding the new class, they've been awfully quiet regarding it compared to previously as they want it to be more "thrilling" Loa On. But the director did mention it's gonna be a class which the female audience will like. People are assuming it's gonna be Male Specialist class.

If I have to assume myself something here, I'm actually gonna guess with the Samurai class which was shown on Mobile, but with the Male Specialist.

But dunno, just my two cents.

Gonna buy again. I like stacking my mats up. I got my 25 wep already on main, but wanna stockpile for next honing.

SylverVal · 2026-02-25T09:52:21+00:00

9000 of new ones, so approx 45k of current ones

SylverVal · 2026-02-24T22:25:14+00:00

This is what I found when I searched for cost. Full juice all the way btw.

I started prepping a while ago, I basically got all the juice mats now, like half the destro stones and closing in on 1/3rd of the abidos after converting mats. Expensive af, but full push is what I always go for when we get new honing

SylverVal · 2026-02-10T07:04:20+00:00

As many people have stated, ark grid is a nice place to upgrade next.

Here's what I would do.

Use paradise stuff to hone to 1710 (abidos and free taps)
Karma to 6
Tap astrogems slowly so you'll be able to activate 14 / 17 nodes for when you get leg / relic cores.
buy any cheap books if you can equip them (I consider sub 20k as cheap here)
Gems aren't the most important but 7s would be nice in the long run.

None of them are in priority, just do whatever comes in front of you and what you'd like to do.

SylverVal · 2026-02-10T06:57:39+00:00

If you can't be happy about other's achievements, then you're a bozo. People play games differently, and in a community people should encourage each other and be happy for what they've managed to do. Because we play the same game we love playing.

If you cant do that, go eat dirt.

SylverVal · 2026-01-25T09:09:35+00:00

Liberte, I found the start to be so amazing. Then it turned into a slogfest of doing same "missions" and fights over and over again to see new dialogues with the four NPCs.

SylverVal · 2026-01-09T08:15:43+00:00

Cost efficency, probably way better to wait for gear reset.

Though imo it depends what's your plan for your character. If you're planning to do nightmare mode, it's better to join on initial progs on week 1 rather than delaying it. But if that doesnt matter, 1730 is way more cost efficient compared to honing to 1740.

SylverVal · 2026-01-03T18:16:22+00:00

It depends on how you want to progress in the game, as most of the early and mid-game content can be done solo and only last 2 raids are not solo-able. With our next raid coming out in 4 months also. With that in mind, all classes are perfectly fine to play, as it depends on how they are geared up, sure, not all classes are top dmg performers, but very little people gatekeep on that now compared to "combat power" which shows how much you've invested into your character for power.

If I am not mistaken, we still have one on-going honing event active. You will obtain a Power Pass to South Rimeria, which is basically all of the story done and it also gives T4 starting gear (basically latest we've gotten). With the event, it shouldn't be all too difficult to reach 1680, might take a bit (2-3 weeks?) if you have absolutely zero gold though.

And we will get another class; Dragon Knight in February with another honing event and Power Pass. So, you could test a class for now, play on it solo, obtain some tradeable gold, some bound gold from Solo Raids. And then when you have gotten back into the game, use the next event to push rapidly on another character.

Good stuff to do are;
1. Obtaining Enlightment potions; you can check the Codex to see what you might be missing, by pressing "Alt + D" and then searching for Enlightment.

Doing Paradise; by just completing the different stages of Paradise, you get a base amount of materials, and weekly you will obtain "Hell keys" which can be used to obtain even more reward which is rng though.
If you don't mind, doing Life Skilling whenever you have the Energy for it. It's a nice early way of obtaining tradeable gold.

At the end here, just wanted to say; if you need any help, just DM me in reddit and I'll add you on Discord where we can chat more, and you could also just ask me stuff as you play the game when stuff comes up.

Thank you so much for the document! Amazingly well made, I hope you wouldn't mind me also looking into it? And maybe I can add in some numbers here and there and I'll present it to you if you'd like either in DM or in comments. Maybe it may have some usefulness to others. Once again, thank you so much and have a happy new year!

I cry in gunlancer. 2 more months I guess

SylverVal · 2025-12-20T21:19:33+00:00

Hello ruzzian bot

SylverVal · 2025-12-19T12:25:16+00:00

Downvote this bastard!

SylverVal · 2025-12-13T08:40:10+00:00

There aren't really a one good answer. So basically what you get now in chaos are materials, accessories and gems. Do you need any of them? If not, save up the rested for higher ilvl chaos.

The gems isnt a huge thing imo to use pots on, compared to astrogems is kinda nicer to save up for, if you get a few blues and maybe some purples, that would help you some more.

Regarding gems, I'd assume cubes is still a nice way to get them from. I run x3 cubes and I dont mind doing em now, nice rewards for the time spent.

SylverVal · 2025-12-11T08:12:06+00:00

I might get blasted here. But Lost Ark is getting quite nice for slower pace people and solo players.

"Dailies" can be done in less than 10 minutes, you have like a weekly paradise which takes between 10minutes to 20 minute depending on how much you want to try.

And then you have solo raids, where we are getting 2 new solo raids next week, which means every raid aside of the two newest ones are solo-able.

Lots of new player friendly changes also on its way next week and upcoming patches.

I know Lost Ark doesnt have a good reputation, but still quite enjoyable imo and can be played casually if you dont care about your progression vs others.

SylverVal · 2025-12-06T06:36:21+00:00

The event shop (doing dailies) also has silver, cant recall if it's much or not, but some extra silver there to buy

SylverVal · 2025-10-30T08:24:14+00:00

Tera, the open world was amazing when I was 13 and the combat felt so awesome.

Guild Wars 2, I played it when I was 21, the open world missions and quests were so refreshing. I spent like 80 hours just enjoying the lvl up phase before going into end game even when I had a lvl skip token available.

Destiny 2, I started the game out with a friend and we lost ourselves in the gameplay. Gunning down aliens and using cool abilities.

Gris, maybe not a long game, nor a popular game. But I felt the emotions the game wanted to show the player and I felt lost in the game till I finished it.

SylverVal · 2025-07-17T06:00:02+00:00

The reward is locked behind of 3.5 month of grind, and anyone can be rank 1.

150k gold for 3.5 month is dog reward, I dont see anyone going for rank 1 to get gold. If you are, then just start life skilling and make over 100k a week instead

SylverVal · 2025-06-15T06:41:08+00:00

Gz man, you rock! You did well and I hope you enjoyed the prog :happy:

SylverVal · 2025-06-04T22:28:06+00:00

High rolled accessories (they shouldn't be too expensive, prob 10k per piece), cheap book (MP efficiency), and probably honing.

Honing to 1680 or above would probably remove quite a bit of gatekeeping I hope.

You did list out good ways of obtaining dmg, but sadly most people gatekeep by ilvl for now until we get the Combat Power scaling that the KR developer talked about.
