Guild Wars 2

Why will anet not listen to us and let us beta test these patches?

How about it anet? why not answer that simple question?

To me it looked there was some sort of cooldown of about 1 or 2 minutes between when the combos will be taken into account.
Probably to avoid completing the achievement too quickly.

yea did they even test this with all classes/weapon combo’s, i tried for 40 mins with a group of 3 other people and managed to get only 7 before i ragequit, a guardian using a sword/torch and sceptre/focus has 1 finisher with a 4 second activation and 40 second cooldown and no combo weapon feilds at all, try timing a 4 second activation to coincide with an enemy death while trying to get it to work before your friends field runs out or they kill the enemy its almost impossible, i have more underwater combos but 0 of them worked after 15 minutes of successfulling killing enemies in fields with finishers, christ it kitten me off, what a slap in the face to people that solo, i also dont craft so i was equally kitten at the crafting part, if the other dailies are as kitten i will be quitting and try to find another game that doesnt try to “fix” something that isnt broken, why mess with the dailies anyway, its obviously a cheap attempt to strecth out gameplay and make it look like new content with the least effort, jesus put your time into fixing bugs and making a real expansion not trying to force players to play a certain way and taking the fun out of it for a lot of people

oh the woes of this annoying achievement from last night. Firstly I was happily doing the regular Daily before the patch (which I didn’t know about!) before the servers closed for the update. I hadn’t finished it but wasn’t far off. I log back in after the patch and what do I get? Daily reset. Two objectives had been saved though but instead of keeping your progress of the other ones the patch had implemented the new objectives without warning. So off I go grinding these new objectives for the daily when I get to the last one, Combo Kills with another player. Aaaarrrrrrgh!!! What a nightmare it was the last hour before reset last night. And it wasn’t just one or two people having problems either, the chat was full of people asking why the hell they weren’t getting the credit. I messed around with different combos with players for ages and while I managed to get 8 done I ran out of the time before I could finished and the daily reset again! LOL. Well thank you for waste of time their ANET. I don’t usually bother posting about frustrations and minor problems I have with the game but this was just eating away at me last night. I was trying to think how many different ways I could kill a mob with another player but no matter how hard I tried the end results were just so erratic. I lost track of exactly how much time I spent on it but it was probably close to an hour and as I said I got those 8 recorded combo kills. I tried in WvW and PvE and it just wasn’t happening. Surely a combo kill should be recognized as simply this :- both players do damage to mob, mob dies, kill recorded.
Lets hope it’s fixed soon.

And the Veteran Killer is having the same issue.
