Maces & weapon merchants

[Berekona]

I would love to see 1 handed maces come into the game at some point as well as other weapons. I would also like to see weapon merchants that you can buy your weapons like diablo 2 and daoc etc have. I would also like to see the economy get a revamp. For a example, buying some supplies for lets say 1000gp and then you decide nah you don't want to do that you should get close to half that gold back not 5 gp back. Other then that I think this game is great and just needs to get a few updates to make it really shine.

You can buy weapons from crafters in many towns and outposts. There are also Collectors throughout the Explorable Areas (EAs) that will trade you weapons for certain materials.

see... i don't want this game to be like Diablo2.. I really love Diablo2 so don't get me wrong.. its just that Diablo2 is Diablo2..and Guild Wars is Guild Wars.. you know what i mean?

Look if the producters wanted this game to look like D2 they'd name it D3

I'm with you and I don't want this to turn into diablo 2 or diablo 3, I just would like to have normal merchants where you can buy items and not get restricted to swords, hammers and axes. Or if they don't have merchants maybe have a new skill that allows people to "craft" any weapon and then sell them to people who then can customize it etc...

oh i understand... just like to speak my mind.. and this the 5th "i wish it was more like D2" suggestion :wink:

but you last post was a good idea.. sounds a little like a game i played online.. just in that agme there was a whole character class called "crafters" or sumtin like that.. and he had skills enabling him to craft.. anyways that'd be great and way easier on the gold.

Ya 1 handed maces would be cool, I remember back in the days using 1 handed maces and a shield in my old game. :P

i personally think the weapon's merchants + collectors are extremely poorly equiped. nothing there really worths buying since you get much better droops in the missions or quests.

I would like to see a redesign of the weapons dudes. It would be nice to go on this principle. In missions and quest you get max 'X' items with mods on them (like +20% damage while on stance, + 20 HP.. etc) and max X items on shops clean (without any mods on them).

Of course the price should be accordingly.

Also, the idea of a better resale value is good as well. If i buy someting for 750 gold and the resale is 40, I think that's a bit a ripoff, IMHO. My local pawn shops aren't even that cheap. :roll:

Mine are! :evil:

I think the low resale value is just a way that AreaNet producers make us work for our money's worth.. This game is based on survival of the strongest, if your strong enought to farm at high lvl places then you will get the money to reward the challenges you faced that day throught a superior Vigor or a Chaos Axe.

Another example of my theorie is that... as every1 knows.. the best way to get money is the HoH, but again, this is survival of the strongest, and if you are not strong enought your team will not reek the reward of fame..... and 6 sigils!
