Guild Wars 2

I came straight to the Forums this time, as I have dealt with support a lot over the past week(They are awesome over there, they put up with my insanely long replies.) I was trying to get a refund for some Skins I had purchased as a knee jerk reaction to how little time was left, but did not like them at all after I purchased them. Along with some ideas for the Devs, one thing that remained constant was go to the Forums(Except for the refund bit), the support team that responded was awesome and very helpful, I mention the support bit because it is why I waited and ultimately missed the Skins, and outfit I wanted.

So I waited until I got everything sorted out with the support staff to see if I would have enough gems to get all of them, well once all the confusion I caused with poor/confusing wording(bad habit) I decided I was going to buy them. I signed in yesterday morning it said 2 days left, and since my brother was over and he brought my Niece and Nephews I decided to spend the day hanging out with my brother and playing video games with my Brother and his kids(Mostly LBP and some Street Fighter, but my nephew loves the Assassin’s Creed series so he was playing that(My TV is my PC Display as well as my consoles(I don’t watch much TV), by the time they left I was exhausted.

I sign in today, and either I slept through an entire day, or I signed in right before the “Two days Left” Turned to “One day left” yesterday. Anyway I missed two skins and an outfit I wanted. [Phalanx Heavy Armor](That armor on male avatars without the Shoulder pieces just had a very “Ivalice” look too it(Ivalice is the world which several awesome and one so so, but still good, Final Fantasy games took place.) [Trickster Light Armor] for no reason other than I liked it on my female avatars, and the [Shadow Assassin Outfit] I need more variation in my light armor collection. Basically I don’t want to be in the same position I am with the [Mini Avatar of the Tree] constantly have the need to have x amount of gems in my account and obsessively checking the Gem store for the chance I will see the Avatar of the Tree mini on sale. I waited to the last moment to add gems. . .and the mini was gone.

So I am wondering/hoping there may be a last chance sale, I am sure there are also people who were not aware these items would be removed, or aware of this at all, and they may have wanted the items. . .or it is wishful thinking on my end.

So yea that is the gist of it. To anyone who reads this, Anet staff, or fellow players, I apologize for my writing, it is kind of like a thought vomit. So sifting through it, for it to make sense may be a pain. I know it will be a long read, with all the stuff that is slightly off topic – completely off topic, and my redundancy I may have missed, So if anyway has any answers I would appreciate it, I tend to obsess over certain things(not on a level where I would need psych care, but when I play GW2 it is always in the back of my head.) I am weird I know. So yea, any information would be helpful, and I thank you for it.

Fraking hell, that is longer than I expected. . .

They haven’t said these items won’t ever be back. They’ll be in the gem store again at some later date. You can buy them then.

Yeah I did the same, fell asleep…forgot all about the blue eyes I wanted.

Lesson learnt to stick a post it note to my screen next time!

Whilst I maintain they should just keep the items in the store, all style items removed will return in the future. Well, apparently except bunny ears I’m repeatedly informed…

I thought I had enough time, but I was mistaken. I should he just bought the phalanx armor, as I do not have a very diverse heavy armor set, but I will wait. Just like I have been for the [Mini Avatar of the Tree] Until then I am working on finishing all the ascended gear for my current avatars. I am working on the Spinal Blades, just about have everything I need for tempers, the next step Infused and colored. . .not sure what I am going to do. People don’t just hand out the cores needed.

Anyway, if this thread is still around and I see [Glints Gaze] I will give a heads up here The one thing I knew I had the gems for, and bought, my Female Ranger in Aether medium armor(Save the helmet, She has [Glints Gaze] equipped. She looks awesome, I also got horns(Not the [Thoughtless potion] or whatever it is called, I have the [Devil Horns] They may still be up there.) I didn’t know if I would be able to afford the armor skins. Is there a heads up thread on the forums? Like people who all randomly (or me every time I log on and every daily reset. . .I want the [Mini Avatar of the Tree] more than the armor, or almost any other item in game, well there is the [Crying Thorn of Dreams], but that is just a matter of luck and finding people to run Twilight Arbor Aetherpath.) Anyway, yea people mention an item they want from the gem store, and the first person who sees it, makes a post, pm, or quoting the person who wanted it. Could form a small pseudo guild, where people just add people who post on said imaginary thread, and contact them through the in ham mail system, Which needs the cap increased to at least 15-20, as I have msgs that are just too kitten funny to delete.

Anyway, Thanks for listening to me ramble on and on and on. . .Also if any forum mods that have access to information, and can give a heads up before the items went back up. . .We promise not to tell anyone. . .^_~ lol (Before I get hammered with they wouldn’t do that, I know, that is obvious to anyone who has read more than a few forum threads, For those who don’t know. . .I have a rather dry and odd sense of humor. )

Okay time to end this and shut up for awhile, so unless I see you on the forums, See you on the Battlefield!

Just wow.

Most threads don’t last the six months or so, that you would need for your desired armor pieces/outfits….not to mention mini-pet. So, no, no thread.

Good luck.

I was just rambling off random idea. Though it wouldn’t be limited to me, I check the store almost daily, I was thinking more for other people like me, who may want other items, as I like to help others in game.

But, I do see your point. Threads usually do not last all that long, unless a lot of people keep coming back due to a conversation. . .And, it’s arguments that usually tend to last longer because everyone has to get their two cents in(I am guilty of that myself, though I o try to refrain.)

Who knows, maybe it ill happen. Honestly, I think(Thought, it was an idea so I threw it out there.) it won’t happen. I wouldn’t be to upset if I was mistaken though.

Well I am going to try to get some Beta in, work on some crafting, and work on saving gold to finish my spinal blades, hopefully I will have enough to get 10 Dynamic power cores(27g a pop) before they run out and I QQ more(Which isn’t easy I am buying sprockets to promote blade shards.). they need to have them drop again, like maybe the Aether Path in Twilight Arbor, or the chest at the end of the Aether JP. I have another idea, but I will bring it up on another sub-forum.

I am not sure if your “Good Luck” was sarcastic, no offense(lol I hate using that phrase.), but the “Wow” seemed sarcastic, and everyone knows it is hard at times to properly show sarcasm, happiness, anger, or anything emotion in text with out writing like I do, almost always TL;DR . Anyway I wouldn’t have held it against you(Not that it would matter to you I am a stranger on the net.), just curious. In case it wasn’t Sarcastic, Thank you.

Yeah, it’s weird.

I’ve noticed that something says “only 17 hours left” (or whatever) and then, I’ve logged back on about 10, or 11, hours later and it’s already gone…

I wonder whether sometimes the times are a bit off, or maybe it’s because I’m in the UK and it’s reading the time wrong, somehow?

The exact same thing happened to me with the [Mini Avatar of the Tree], though I think it was an error on my end, I did the math in my head wrong(at what time they leave the shop.) or I was looking at an entirely different item. . .as much as I dislike admitting it.

Just wait for the last chance sale to end. Last chance sales = Will be found tradable inside black lion chests soon…. which you can then buy for cheap as hell a few days after that (see finishers)

Most things come back eventually, they consider a lot of them “seasonal”.

I got tired of missing things because I always waited to the last few hours to buy stuff, so now I tend to buy them as soon as they get discounted.
