6/15/2017 4 Comments Animal Face Gamer GlovesPoro's count as animals right?? I think they do, after making the panda faced gamer gloves I thought, hey I could make poro ones too, and the poros are just too cute to be left out. They are such adorable balls of fluff that are happy to see you, so I couldn't think of a reason someone wouldn't want that little face smiling back at them! Plus they seemed like a perfect fit for gloves because I bet they'd be very snuggly and gloves are like warm snuggles for your hands XD I thought a panda face would be cute and boy was I right. This one is probably my favorite of the three, pandas are pretty adorable and having a little smiling face looking back at you is always nice! I was looking at conversations I had, had a couple of months ago and realized that I was probably inspired by someone who was talking about liking panda. I am really glad that I had that conversation because it made me come up with these :3. I of course had to make kitty gloves too! I think they turned out pretty cute but I may change them some. I feel like some of the little details that you normally think of when you think of cats (like whiskers) get kind of lost because the colors are pretty similar but that also has to do with the time that I took the picture (it was kind of overcast). I may just test it out and see what other colors I like I was thinking about doing white, as I think the whiskers will pop better but we will see! I have so many ideas for gloves and other things that it will probably be awhile until then. Regardless I do think these ones turned out pretty cute!

I of course had the Mesmer inspired gloves done a long time ago but recently I decided they needed some friends and went about making a bunch of other ones too. The Mesmer is my favorite class and I've been in love with them since before beta, (when I saw the pistol trailer). Being illusive and shattering into a bunch of butterflies is cool, and pretty unique. It is big part of why I loved the Mesmer so much. They are very different from any other class I've played! The Guardian is probably my third favorite class. I really like Guardian for PvP, plus they reminded me of my Paladin which was nice because when I started playing Guild Wars 2 I had stopped playing World of Warcraft (Cataclysm era yuck :P, it got way too over hyped for me & I ended up really disliking it because of that). I like that the Guardian can do a bunch of different things, DPS, Support, Bunker and it is very good at all of those things. I do think with Heart of Thorns they did make the classes more even in being good at all of these things but the Guardians being able to use a longbow really made me excited to play them in a whole new way (I'm not much of a melee person, I like my ranged characters), it gave me the max range Guardian something I didn't know I was looking for but definitely needed! Engineer is probably my 4th favorite class, it is really hard for me to ranked them though because I have a little love for all of them (except Warriors, I just don't find them fun... they are kind of boring and sluggish feeling to me but they are the only class I dislike which is saying something). I like going around on my Engineer and doing quests and whatnot, I think what I really like about the Engineer is the turrets. It is like I have these mechanical pets that don't move but help me do the damages! I also found a new love for farming with the Engineer now that I have the Autopicking up Mastery (my goodness I love that thing, feels good man, feels good). My first Character in World of Warcraft was the Hunter, so playing the Ranger in Guild Wars 2 brings a similar feeling to those good memories. I like being able to have a pet and my Ranger is my only Azura so it has extra value as my pets are normally the same size as me (I think its funny). I also like to name my scarier pets ridiculously cute names (my Smokescale is name Snuggledoodle, those things are the stuff of nightmares but somehow with that name it is super cute and cuddly XD). The last one I've made so far is inspired by the Thief, I like the Thieves agility but I am not very good at them. I don't know, I just don't seem to have that killer instinct (I'm not very good at my rogue either, I kind of just button mash >.> <.<). I do like being able to get across and entire map in like 2 seconds though (an exaggeration but dang they are really fast). I also like popping in and out of stealth and confusing people, but when it comes to killing them that is another story, I am much better at running away...
I am still working on making a Necromancer and an Elementalist set. I haven't worked out how to make the Revenant or Warrior ones yet but I plan to make those at some point :). I am excited about how these ones came out and may do some more testing on a couple of them, but over all I am pretty happy with them! The button takes you to the Etsy listing for those interested in it :). I haven't been a big fan of scaling in World of Warcraft, especially the scaling with item level. If I get some good gear I want to feel like a badass and just mow through mobs. I think a big part of it that I don't like is the mobs scaling, I like that in Guild Wars 2 my character scales. It also kind of makes more sense to me that my character would scale vs. the mobs scaling. I feel like a big piece of that is that the games are different. With Guild Wars 2 everybody has a bunch of damage abilities even if you build support or bunker, but in World of Warcraft that isn't the same, with a healer you have just a couple of damage spells, and with a tank you have damage spells but you don't do a lot of damage, and I know you can change specs pretty easily but if you don't have fun as DPS why would you want to do that? The scaling just doesn't feel good in World of Warcraft, when I go through things in Guild Wars 2 even scaled down I am still more powerful and I like that. I have nice gear and I want to feel powerful everywhere because of that. I guess it feels like I am being penalized in WoW verses feeling rewarded. I was kind of on the fence about how I would feel about scaling in WoW before but seeing it in the game I just really don't like it and since it doesn't scale my character I still get beat up by people much higher level than me. I hope that one they don't make it so you continue to scale this way with the next expansion and that you don't have to continue doing the raids/dungeons with people because of the scaling. One of my favorite things to do is solo old raids, and not being able to do that once Legion get old enough would feel like a really big punishment. I really do hope they change the system and definitely make it so it does not scale with item level. I don't know very many people who were excited about that, I mean let us feel like badasses when we have awesome gear!! And definitely if World of Warcraft does continue to do scaling, scale the characters instead of the mobs, this would also help with people who are griefing in low level zones! Just please make it so it doesn't feel like such a punishment!
I'm not actually sure why skinning isn't in the game. We have leather so I feel like it would have made sense for the skinning to be a thing but I suppose with the way armor drops it could end up being way too much leather. They would have to adjust the ratio of that if they did ever add skinning. I wouldn't mind if the ratio was adjusted and you could skin creatures and in the place of the leather armor, you would get more cloth armor (especially at lower levels). Skinning is kind of a yucky thing seeing as you are taking somethings skin but that is how leather is made, so at the moment it feels kind of awkward that we don't have it. Cloth is one of those things that is harder to get, but also something you need a lot of. You can have wood and ore coming out of your ears but then can very easily be lacking in cloth, especially lower level cloth. It could be cool if you were able to gather cloth more consistently from people wearing cloth armor, or even things like cotton trees could be really cool, maybe you could even have sheep to shear for wool, there being a flax garden for linen, and a mix of plants for jute ect... A lot of the cloth types come from plants and the ones that don't come from animals, which could be at little farms around Tyria, or things similar to that. Being able to have a place to gather these thing more frequently would be really nice, and would take a lot of the dread out of farming them. I would love to have little farms that I could go and gather these things, they could be just like the little patches of strawberries, potatos, cauliflower, ect... I think for for cloth this could definitely be a nice way to balance out how much you get compared to wood/ore. I hope they make some changes like this because it would be really nice for the people who play the game!
5/27/2017 0 Comments Lake Doric, Guild Wars 2If you didn't already know, Lake Doric is the place to be if you need to farm (especially leather). Not only can you get tier 6 materials but you can also get lower level materials that you would have to go to lower level zones or dungeons to get. I wouldn't say you get a lot of them but it is much better than having to sit in a lower level zone you've already completed, when you only need one material from there. It is much easier to farm wood, and ore because there are nodes but not counting the home instance nodes there aren't really any for cloth and leather, which makes them much harder to get. This helps a little bit with that problem. It is also kind of like a little mini game because you're not quite sure what you are going to get from here. I really like farming here it is actually pretty nice, and kind of reminds me of cursed shore farming but not so dark and dreary! If you do need some more leather, tier 6 materials, and some random lower tier cloth, leather, ore, this is the place to go!
5/25/2017 1 Comment Autopickup Guild Wars 2I am not a farming person, I get bored pretty fast so I have to do it in small doses, but with autopickup it is so so much better! I never completed it until just recently, I thought I was going to have enough Tyrian masteries in the beginning to do the other ones then fill out Advanced Logistics too, but that wasn't the case for the longest time I only needed 3 points. The League of Legends ranked season started, Overwatch chests to get ect... so it just kind of fell to the wayside and I am pretty sure I had been missing out on loot because of it! Before the autopickup I would be sitting there feverishly hitting F to try and get all of the loot, and the range isn't that big so I would miss out on tagging a lot of mobs. I am so happy that I have this now because it makes farming a lot easier, and nicer. Plus I am happy that I don't have to hit F anymore because it would actually end up hurting my wrist sometimes! If you haven't done the masteries yet I would make sure that it is at the top of your list (unless you are doing the legendaries and need that one first, but then I would still have it as second). Especially if you aren't a farming person like me, it makes it a lot less of a chore!
I felt like I couldn't just leave with all of this unrest, I wanted to know more about this land, was all of it full of this unrest? Did people even want to be saved? How could I help them? I have so many questions that are unanswered and in my heart I know that I must help them. It breaks my heart knowing that there is such hatred here. On the other side of the city there is a little mine and at least there there doesn't seem to be such unrest, just people doing their jobs, some not so much... but others are. Those lazy miners just need a little inspiration though, and I am just the person to give it to them! Change is scary but I am glad that some people understand that change can be good as well. It can take some time to adjust to but as long as people keep trying they will get there. I don't know much about the fears of change, ever since I awoke from my dream my life has been changing. It feels like a friend, full of new information, lands, and people. Maybe once I settle down I will understand more about what it is like to go from things always being the same for so long to being turned on their heads. I am in love with this trees. Er, not that kind of love, they don't talk, or move, or do much of anything. They aren't like people or other Sylvari's. I mean they are just so beautiful they feel like home. I better be careful how I talk about the plants I wouldn't want people thinking I was in love, in love with them. I came upon a new race that I had not seen before. Ogres, they are not terrible friendly though, they don't seem to want anything to do with me, before I could get in a greeting they started to charge me. I was only observing them and their structures. They are definitely not as well crafted as the Human structures here, but there is something unique about them, and something kind of stunning to see. I wonder if they put the flowers there or if it was just an accident. They seem to have taken over that bridge and made it their home none the less. Though I don't want to see people in danger, it is a relief knowing that this land is not only plagued by the Charr and Humans still fighting. It makes me glad to know that it is just part of the area and not all of it. Maybe they will let me help them more and see this treaty the way I do, as an exciting journey into a peaceful time!
I was not high enough level to enter the Harathi Hinterlands and something about the Fields of Ruin called to me, I had a certain curiosity about this place. I had heard whispers of some unrest here, and the Charr seemed to have a special dislike for it, but I wanted to know for myself. I thought they were just whispers but it turns out that they were very true. Humans were even shouting in the streets to continue fighting the Charr, and more than one human told me that the Separatists will even kill other Humans if they believe they are in the way of their cause. The Charr and Humans are at peace now, it is sad to see that there are still lingering feelings of hate between them. Ebonhawke is a place of beautifully melancholy, there is so much history here, and it feels like it wishes to haunt the present. I had heard of Gwen Thackeray and Kieran Thackeray, ancestors of Captain Logan the humans champion. He is doesn't seemed to be the most well liked Human, I heard he was supposed to slay a dragon but left before that happened and that someone from his guild died because of it. I wonder how his ancestors would feel about that. The walls of Ebonhawke are so tall it is amazing that someone would even try to fight them with these defenses. The trees here are so beautiful, their leaves are full of warm yellows, oranges, browns, and reds. They are much like my own leaves. The Separatists on the other hand are not beautiful, they seem to plague this land with their toxic ideals. I don't understand how anyone could not want peace, have they not fought long enough? On top of that they are rather brazen attacking a camp full of Ebon Vanguard alone. Their actions seem to have no logic behind them, but when do madmen's actions make sense. They have even converted some of the soldiers, he tried to kill me when I told him I did not agree with him. What madness is this? The least I can do is help from this plague spreading, the wrong ideas of the mind can lead to far too many wrong actions. Peace is beautiful, pure, and full of love, but I may have to use a little force to maintain it. Both sides are to blame for this conflict, and I hope one day they understand that, so they can move on.
5/21/2017 0 Comments Gliders, Guild Wars 2There are a ton of different gliders now, and I'm sure there will be many more. I think it is really cool that they've been making it so you can dye a lot of them (especially that you can dye the particle effects). I don't actually have any of the ones you can dye but I do like seeing people with them! My boyfriend has this one and has it in blue and purple and it leaves a really pretty trail and has a pretty cool look over all. The only thing about it that I wish was that you could dye the backpiece too because it would be pretty cool to have the two in unison. This one is one of my favorites, I wish I had gotten it when it was in the store, as it is really pretty and I love the little rainbows that come off it and the over all crystal like feel to it (like me? :O). When it comes back it is one of the ones I really want to get it! It would look beautiful on so many of my characters! I actually really like this one too, but it is also pretty creepy seeing as phantoms come by to carry you. It definitely feels like a Halloween skin (which was what it was for) and has the right amount of eerie and cool. I'm not sure that I would actually use it, if I had it, seeing as it is creepy but I really do like it, and I haven't actually seen anyone using it in game, which to a certain extent makes it even cooler because of its rarity. Leave it off on a funny one right? So this glider still makes me giggle. I kind of want it just because of silliness factor. Having the little celestial roosters flap around to carry you is pretty silly looking. I hope they make some other silly ones too because I get a kick out of them. Maybe they could do one that is "when pigs fly" or something like that. It would be pretty cool if one was like a unicorn/pegasus too (as long as it didn't make the noise that Dreamer makes, I actually like the bow but I'm not a big fan of the neighing, which is kind of funny because my mom actually really likes that about it). I can't wait to see what else they come up with, I'm sure they have some pretty cool ideas in store!
