Guild Wars 2

hovering over the colored circles does not show what it means

what do each of the colors mean?

When the event is in yellow :
-it’s active.
-if it has an arrow, the number next to it tells you how long this stage has been active
-if it has a minus next to the number, it means that you need to trigger something to make it advance.

When the event is in red : it failed.

When the event is not highlighted :
-arrows are kind of tricky, they generally mean that other events can now be completed to trigger the main event
-numbers in orange mean that the event is launching later than what was planned
-numbers in yellow mean that the event doesn’t have a fixed timer but instead a window during which the event can begin.

I suggest you read on the wiki each event you are interested in to really understand what GW2stuff is telling you and which events require pre-events to be completed.

As for the circles :
-grey circle, event completely inactive or lack of information
-orange circle, event chain is active.

If you have any question about the website, or any events, feel free to ask. I’ve done them so many times, I know pretty much everything there is to know about each of those events and about the website.

thanks for the info, and what about light blue?

Oh yeah I forgot about the light blue xD.

Generally this only applies to temple events (unless I missed something). It means that the chain has been successful completed, thus the temple is open.

Hi RedStar,

What does “pre-window” mean? When I hover over the grayed out event times, I see this counting down. Is this the time till the start of the event, or does it mean the event will happen anytime within that window?

Thanks

The greyed out event times mean that the event cannot trigger again until that time elapses. A yellow event time with a ticking down clock means that the event is ‘in window’, so it could start at any time during that countdown.

Sometimes other events might interfere and cause the countdown to go longer than it should. Fire Elemental with the various ‘displaced creatures’ events in the reactor is the main culprit of that, now that they’ve fixed their display on Shadow Behemoth for the monastery events.
