Guild Wars 2

Now, I know you can obtain 20 slot boxes from the new dungeon. They are all 20 slots, and each is progressively more expensive than the last. Do they differ at all in function? Is it more efficient to simply buy the cheapest one?

They hold different types of items from Masterwork, Rare to Exotic.

Items of those classes will be stored in that specific 20 slot box before other items fill it out. Other then the cost difference – that’s all there is to it really

(Example: I exchange the Relic tokens for a 20 slot exotic box. Once equipped – any exotic items I find (and pick up) will be stored into the exotic box first automatically – it just helps with organisation that’s it)

Well, I’d prefer a normal 20-slot box. :P

I’d prefer a normal box too. It seems that you can’t use the “compact” feature on these fractal boxes. The items inside don’t move when you compact your inventory.

It’s a fairly tiny difference. And they’re incredibly cheap, 150 tokens is pretty easy to get.

me too I actually prefer the crafted ones as I use them to organize. regular, gear, crafting, invis, oiled are how i roll.

simply use the feature SHOW/HIDE bags and you will end up with 1 giant bag.. makes life easy

That’s a bit of a slap in the face to anyone who can’t get past Level 1 due to the bugs and disconnects preventing players from finishing a full level.

Not to mention an even bigger slap in the face to anyone who either couldn’t make it in for the karka event or also got d/c’d towards the end. 20-slotter’s were handed out left right and centre, considering that the cheapest equivalent on the TP is ~13g I’d say that’s something that bears thinking about.

That weekend is going to go down as a very large black mark against ANet and a huge wake-up call on how things should be tested before implementation and delivery.

You’re overexaggerating.

Yes, there are bugs. Yes, people disconnect. But it shouldn’t take you more than 2-3 tries to get past level 1, and that’s a worst case scenario. Most people get through it in one try.

I’ve only seen a fractal bug once, and we managed to get it unbugged rather easily.

I’ve only had someone disconnect during a fractal once, and we still finished the fractal without them. Level 1 is easily doable with only 4.

Only way I could see someone not being able to get past 1 is if they themselves disconnect frequently. And that’s their problem that they need to deal with.

You’re right it shouldn’t, and it’s through no fault of the groups that we play with either. Yet this does happen and with monotonous regularity, to the point I just won’t go near the place without ANet having implemented some sort of fix (and no I’m not talking about a half-arsed one either). Bugs with a workaround are one issue, dungeons not being able to be completed due to those bugs and/or disconnects is really distressing. Depends which fractal you’re doing with a certain number of people, sometimes I’ve seen it take the entire group. But, I haven’t seen all the fractals yet to make a well-informed debate on it yet… why is that, oh yes… because we haven’t gotten off L1, and I’ve only seen about 4 instances of different fractals.

I’m not that surprised by your attitude, you’re more than likely another American in an NA server with no latency issues to speak of. I on the other hand, am half way around the world with pings that would make baby jebus cry. Add to that I’m usually relegated to an overflow server because my home server is usually packed out, and I’m not surprised I d/c as much as I do. But this is not on my end, my connection hardly ever drops. It’s ANet’s issue, it’s already documented in the tech forums.

So yes, it SHOULD be as easy as you say… but the REALITY is that it’s just not as you’d have it. Now tell someone else stuck on L1 that they’re over-exaggerating as well.

Thats actually great,i layed down this idea some time ago,it annoyed me that i couldnt “lock” an inventory bag and when sorting and despositing/compacting id like to see the things ive sorted to Stay in that current inventory slot and not switch around all the time.

150 tokens is super easy, I agree I wish that they had a “normal bag” but it’s not too bad having your greens go into different bags first. And Valandil, it is sooo easy to get past level 1. If you’re serious about the connection issues you have, whether it is Anet’s fault or your own, you need to find a new game.

I do hope you’re not serious. Do you realise how many servers AREN’T in this part of the world, and only serve the ‘merkins and euro’s best? I think some people on these forums need to get a big spoonful of reality and stop pretending it’s all about you, and it’s “oh so easy”. If it were I would have done it by now.
