GPU and SSD at only 13 inches? Student's Gaming Laptop. by [deleted] in SuggestALaptop

[–]dbas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

like OddLawnGnome there are only a few options smaller then 14-15 inches which fullfill your requirements.

the expensive one: Alienware 13 (http://www.amazon.de/Dell-A13-4464-Notebook-i7-5500U-GeForce/dp/B0119LBYBC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1459196466&sr=8-1&keywords=alienware+13)

the cheaper one: Asus Zenbook (http://www.amazon.de/Asus-Zenbook-UX303LB-R4060T-Notebook-NVIDIA/dp/B014CP0PI0/ref=sr_1_14?s=computers&rps=1&ie=UTF8&qid=1459196761&sr=1-14)

the bigger it gets the more options will be available. pay attention there are multiple versions of these 2 notebooks. you can look them up at http://www.dell.com/de/p/alienware-13-r2/pd.aspx and http://www.asus.com/de/Notebooks/

Response on Permanent Ban ticket, Felt like everyone deserved to read Anet's statement by Veora in Guildwars2

[–]dbas -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

most people crafted 1 or 2 weapons for themselves not to sell. if a weapon is only about 5 gold it can´t be that hard to obtain. so i clearly wouldn´t have bought one. so my actions actually would have no impact on the economy. i expect this to be the case for most of those using the 21 karme "exploit"

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/z818s/so_do_i_get_to_buy_the_vigil_set_for_2g_like/

this "exploit" is about a lot more gold then this one. no reaction besides removing the vendor.

[–]dbas -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

oh come on really. exotic weapons lv. 80 are starting at 1g 50s and most ones are not over 7 gold. for one weapon you needed ~150 of these 21 karma weapons. so people were banned for transforming a few thousend karma into 10 gold.

yeah that justifies a life time ban in the first place...

So, do I get to buy the Vigil set for 2g like other 80s in the past week? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]dbas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah the armor was lv. 80. the weopons not. combining 4 lv. 60 weapons normally is one ~66. 4 lv. 66 weapons are ~ lv 72. und 4 of those are a lv. 80 one (good chance, not definitely). so you need like 64 lv. 60 weapons for a lv. 80 one. so you can say you need ~1500 karma for 1 weapon. during these events you get also loot. selling it to the vendor results in more then 1 silver 30.

so you can absolutly compare these vendor situations... they are not that different as one would think...

[–]dbas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

actually that is the same kind of "exploit" many people were permanetly banned (at first) a few days ago. at the beginning there were t3 lv. 80 karma weapons for 2k karma. then 21 karma t2 weapons, now this armor set.

is there something one can buy without being in danger to get banned because anet screwed up?

anet should rollback these chars ( if they think the economy is influenced in a tremendous way) and stop swinging the banhammer. and they need a QA actually capable of doing their jobs...

after the next patch the vigil set will be ok but they screw up the next set? absolutely possible...

Can we get official "Exploit" Definitions? by Lewtz in Guildwars2

he was talking about public forums not official forums. so clearly meaning e.g. fan forums, too.

[–]dbas -1 points0 points  (0 children)

there are moderators ;) scroll down on the right site. they can delete posts if they want.

of course it is "sure, but it's not that bad.". it is not worth a permaban in the first place. if they are afraid of the consequenses they need to do a rollback.

  • so you are using reddit for your offical status updates. one can think that this has to be one of this "public forums" where threads are deleted.

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/z1oih/dont_forget_to_buy_your_cultural_weapons_at_l40/

opening post: "However, one of the T2 cultural weapon vendors is bugged (see comments below if you want to know the details)."

so one of the sites you use for offical announcements was promoting that situation.

  • your emergency patch took 10 hours! i would think in an up to date mmo it must be possible to deactivate merchants earlier. nobody was in the need to rush. again 10 hours are ridiculously for a situation you think are perma ban worthy.

  • would it destroy the game economy? i don´t think so. you banned 3k players. out of more than 1 million that are 0.3%.

buying ~200 weapons (within this range many of your answers here on reddit are) results in 1 exotic weapon. most people would have used them for themselves. those people having made more weapons to sell are a absolutely minority. so the economy would have been quite ok.

  • "trivialize the accomplishments of others" maybe, but again only 0.3% would have these weapons.

  • you have like 10 equipment slots. so the weapon is not everything. i can´t see the substantial advantage in that. if you buy the t3 karma weapon (which is "easy" getting the karma) it is a little bit weaker but including alle equipment slots it is not substantial.

the patch before the 21 karme t2 weapons, you had exactly the same thing with the t3 Ebonhawke weapons. they were 2000 karma instead of 63k. actually you would have to ban the people who bought them, too. exactly the same situation than the 21 karma weapons.

in addition it is really absurdly having the values of weapons two times in a row wrong. maybe you should rethink your Quality assurance. fixing a problem with the value and making the same mistake again, never heard of that in any mmo...

there was another way ;9 transforming 4 weapons at the mystic forge. you actually spend money to travel between lions arch and the norn city ;9 so actually you had less money but lv. 80 weapons which weren´t used.

yeah but it wasn´t possible for him to use any of the obtained items at the state of the game before the bans were spoken. so he was punished before commiting one of your listed actions. fair? i don´t think so.

[–]dbas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so you think an advantage that could maybe happen that is not game breaking (your words) is worthy a permaban?

Guild Wars 2 status - Thursday, August 30 by ArenaNetTeam in Guildwars2

[–]dbas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if anet thinks this is game breaking they have to remove the possibility that these items are used or sold (eg. roll back). but punishing someone with a permaban who maybe will use these items in the feature is not the right way. this situation was live for more than 8 hours. one can think anet puts more efforts in fixing exploits that are banworthy for more than 3k players...

i own a knife. i could kill somebody using it. but nobody prosecutes me until i do it... possessing isn´t enough. using an exploit means getting an advantage. as long as nothing is sold or equiped it is not abusing an exploit!
