Guild Wars 2

Could you bring the TP representatives and merchants back to areas like Smokestead and Snowlord’s Gate? When I’m in these areas it’s always annoying to be unable to purchase salvage kits/check my TP like I used to be able to, especially between AC runs (this is Smokestead specifically) or when I’m playing my low-level Norn character for example.

That’s not going to happen: these are starter zones and having merchants might be too confusing for newcomers.

I wish people would stop using that joke -_-

Sadly, it’s not really a joke in this case.

I wish this was a joke, but indeed: they removed that content because it was too much information at once for new players. Like it or not, that’s the idea of the NPE…

It’s a joke because it’s applicable. The only times when it’s used as an uncalled for joke is when it’s referring to things that should be removed because new players might be confused.

Or that Customer Support/Devs can’t do certain things because they might be too overwhelming.

Well then I guess Anet wanted “veteran” players to utilize their personal golem banker and trader merchants more.

You can use most of the TP’s functions from anywhere in the world by pressing O or using the black lion icon at the top of the screen. The only thing you can’t do is collect items/gold.

Merchants appear to be level specific now. I just went to the one right outside The Grove on my level 80 character and they’re offering a full selection of salvage kits and Mithril and Ori tools. On my level 40 character they’re selling Crude, Basic and Fine kits and Steel and Darksteel tools.

Well, good to see early Caledon still has one. And I’m aware of how the TP works, I’m just annoyed my access to it has been reduced.

It was a joke but even Anet saw what they did was a VERY bad move treating newcomers as complete idiots and has slowly been undoing what they did. If they would just go back to “Kill stuff to unlock weapon skills” I wouldn’t complain about anything else about the patch.
