Is it me or does it seem like people are over exaggerating on how much gold they are spending on the Precursor Collection?
I don’t believe they are exaggerating..I know I spent about 600-700g on Bolt collection..I can Imagine the two-handers would be a bit more.
600-700g seem like reasonable sum up of the amount of gold a person may spend if they brought everything from the TP But I’m seeing people saying that they have spent nearly or over 1k gold on the bolt collection which doesn’t make sense.
I have only spent maybe around 500g for the whole bolt collection and most of that was on Deldrimor Steel.

I bought just about everything from TP on the first day..I’m sure some of the material prices have probably increased also since release. Not sure of material for Dusk/Dawn or other two handers, but think I read 130 Deldrimor Steel Ingots for them. If that is true thats a ton of gold right there without even considering the other material involed. (If you are buying everything.)

Kinda went off topic of what you said. 1k gold seems alot for the Bolt collection if people are spending that much.
Who cares how much or how little gold people are putting into the collections !!!
The point is:
You cannot complete many of them due to bugged content, even after investing multiple hundreds of golds into them, yet a.net doesn’t say a word about something that is:
1 – it is expansion content, yet considered such low priority we don’t even deserve an ETA !!!
2 – it is an issue that blocks progress completely.

Is it me or does it seem like people are over exaggerating on how much gold they are spending on the Precursor Collection?
They’re not. Even if they farmed the materials for all the spiritwood and deldrimor steel, could have sold those and used the gold to just buy the precursor.
Another bug in Frenzy Part 3: apart from 2 out of 16, the quaggan bracelets you need for the collection can’t be deleted from inventory… Delete attempt prompts you to enter the item name, but even with the exact name down to the casing, the ‘ok’ button stays greyed out. I now have 14 bag slots used by these…
Is it me or does it seem like people are over exaggerating on how much gold they are spending on the Precursor Collection?
It depends on the precursor. Some of them cost more to craft than others. But it is still true that a lot of people are making up numbers when they say they spent over 1k, but only on certain pres like Zap. (i know cause I’m on zap T3)

all depends m8 for how much you was buying derdrimors…….if you buy tchem for 6-7g its much less then 1k gold if from 9g+ its +/- 1k gold
90 dedrimors steel +10 lether (thats almost 900g am i wrong?:)) and there is much more mats so thats +/- 1k gold…but moure importent thig is….ZAP III is buged,fix it pls
Minstrel I is broken forever unless Drottot Lashtail’s event gets turned back on.
This guy is supposed to sell a recipe you need, but he is only a vendor after his event finishes. His event was apparently removed with the NPE because the event never ever happens anymore. The Devourer Lures sometimes become interactable (but don’t work).
It was stupid this event got turned off in the first place. The new heart nearby references collecting devourer eggs, and having this event on would greatly help with doing that event anyways. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Drottot_Lashtail

This one is really irritating, and if their coding is worth anything remotely more than dirt, changing this should be little more than adding a ‘yes’ value along with a price to each of them. It’s not like it’s a bug that needs to be searched down, it’s a variable value.

Rodgort III : Tar Elemental Core . Says “looted from a fallen tar elemental”. I have killed hundreds of tar elemental and veteran tar elemental in Fireheart Rise and Cursed Shores and this item has not dropped. Spent several hours killing them with nothing.
same killed thousands of tar and didn’t drop tar elemental core, they need to fix this bug.
Lotus Flower
For Experimental Longbow Kudzu (tier 1) recipe.
Is it be bugged?
Been farming for hours over 2-3 days now.
Rest of the items had good droprate. This one doesn’t seem to have any at all..
After around 150+ harvests it feels like a bug. Confirmed?
Shouldn’t be that hard for that reward..
I dont think its bugged. i think the majority of people crafting Kudzu are stuck on compost. maybe try a gather bonus? idk. i got mine after about 3 days of running multiple toons through orr
Why can’t they do periodic updates and fix things part by part, but instead, trying to withhold the updates on big patch date, thus, generating more bugs and make people wait much longer?
If they fix it part by part, at least we can feel like they’re trying to fix it, but nope, they’re going to release everything on Nov 17 update, when the market will be absolutely chaotic when Legendary armors and New weapons are out…
Worst part is we don’t even know the material for the last last part…
Can anyone tell me how we’re supposed to create an Anthology of Villains for Flameseeker prophecies I ?
It says it’s a Weaponsmith recipe, except you need to be Scribe 300 to create the (account bound) needed paper. Which you can’t be unless you belong to a guild big enough to have a hall & guild events…
WTF ANet ?! Stop telling me how to play !
I thought GW2 was about playing the way I liked. Gods was I wrong
Les Loups de Sandpoint [LdS] – Vizunah and we’re NOT recruiting ^^

The Art of Tanning: Longbow String Edition- Grandmaster Huntsman asks for thick strings twice and leaves out coarse strings (but he accepts 10 thick and 10 coarse).
At the Juton Holy Sight in Theign Kenning I can’t leave my tribute of 100 bloodstone dust anywhere near the campfire. I’ve tried 1st person with adjust to height camera turned off and on. I’ve gone over every inch of that campfire, and the only option it gives me is to commune. I’m an Asura, so I thought I wasn’t tall enough, meanwhile I saw another player was a Norn and thought he was too tall. I’m just assuming it’s not working.
Any information on Tar Elemental Core – item required to craft Rodgort’s Flame. The description says it drops from the bodies of fallen tar elementals. I know I’m not the only one who’s been farming Tar Elementals and still haven’t received a drop…please advise.
I’m stuck at 92%, the only item I’m lacking is the Giant Shark Tooth.
I’ve killed the shark twice now, with two different characters, both times I’ve done plenty of damage and got the Steel Chest to drop. However, the tooth is never in the chest for me (nor is it a drop anywhere else).
Both times I’ve been with others who have gotten the tooth, so I know this isn’t a universal bug. But I cannot progress until it’s fixed for me.
Unless this isn’t a 100% guaranteed drop (in which case, ugh… seriously?) then it’s obviously bugged for me.
EDIT: I guess I should say that I did get the Shark Fin to drop, which some have speculated is for a later stage in the moot precursor crafting. Could it be that it somehow skipped the tooth for me and I’m glitched as being on a higher tier?
Is the Twilight Collection set still bugged? I heard they were fixing bugs this coming Tuesday and I just got the third legendary crafting mastery. I don’t want to start until I’m sure that it will:
A: Be less expensive overall than just buying dusk off the trade post
B: Not have to worry about any quests so that I can do everything without posting a compliant on the forums.
Moot 1:
I am also having issues with the Giant Shark. You have to have two events consecutively fail, which is pretty difficult to do really, and one player can do it easily enough. Also there is a bug with the quaggan quest where even if the last quaggan is captured, the krait do not always even notice him, even if led right over it.
Overall I have spent hours camping this event, at really unsociable hours so that there is a greater chance of players not completing the event (but the megaserver system sort of overrides that most of the time) and have only got the shark to spawn once, and when he did, I got no item. I have, so far, not had any difficulty getting any of the other items required for the precursors except this.

It’s not bugged. It took me about three events to get it to drop. But don’t get your hopes up, t3 Moot is bugged in two events been stuck there since release date :| Here’s hoping Tuesday works out for any fixes

The event to protect the quaggan is bugged, I wasn’t meaning the drop so much. Iv watched it bug out over 4 times tonight, and the times it didn’t bug, players killed the krait therefore stopping it failing.
Having watched this event over and over again over the last couple of days, I am done with it until Anet release a way to get the giant shark where you are not trying to have two events fail. I had forgotten just how much I despised camping for spawns in other games, because Anet had been really good about not having that in game. I can only hope they fix it to not go counter to how players are asked to play.
Currently stuck on Meterologicus III: Storm, at 27/29.
Professor Portmatt’s Lab is currently bugged on every map I joined, and I know it for sure since I’ve completed it (and got the chest opened) almost 10 times, and I can’t download any research anywhere.
Now, let’s see the most serious problem: “Rescue the quaggan at Moogooloo in Kessex Hills from krait slavery”. It’s not about a working issue, but about an event which IS NOT IN THE GAME ANYMORE.
Not counting that only the 50 Spirit Wood Planks costs more than the precursor itself, that, for me, is a serious game design issue.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Cathedral_of_Zephyrs_
This event is setup such that it requires a fail state of the defend Zephyrs event in order for the main chain to start up that actually completes the quest. This is not well matched with the hint for Dawn which says “Cleanse the Cathedral of Zephyrs in Malchor’s Leap and loot this from the chest.”
I showed up there last night and there were 8 people sitting at Zephyrs and a bunch of other people waiting around for the main event to start. The people up at Zephyrs kept defending the temple not knowing that is was not what’s needed for the precursor quest.
Thegren Topjaw (heart vendor) at Tela Range in the Plains of Ashford doesn’t sell the Black Powder needed to make the Confetti Pouch, blocking half of the collection off. Tried to do buy it with a character that had map completion prior to HoT and one that hadn’t completed it after the expansion launched. After finishing the heart they still didn’t sell it.

The shocking thing is this is such a SIMPLE FIX with no event involved.
The other shocking thing is this is not the only Precursor process with such simple feature that’re bugged.
The last shocking thing is took them almost a month and still no fix.
The master weaponsmith npcs are unlocking the wrong recipe for me after turning the items for The Art of Forging: Sword Hilt Edition.
When I talk to the npc and select, “I forgot how to craft a Balanced Sword Hilt”, the npc unlocks “A Weighted Sword Blade recipe”, which was already unlocked when I completed The Art of Forging: Sword Blade Edition.
I talked to the master weaponsmiths in every major city and ended up with the same result.

Tier 1 had one major quest bug which was fixed and one minor bug that one event was not real reliable, but I got through it first try although I did have to wait around a long time. Tier 2 seems to be working so far, almost half done but gated by daily crafting limits. I am crafting all the materials myself, only buying raw materials and only with offers so cost should not be as bad as people are complaining about. I have no idea about Tier 3 for bugs or cost and I am weeks away from finding out. Hopefully any quest bugs will be worked out by then.
I’m having trouble with pondering the statue of an Ascalonian hero in the Urban Battlefields Fractal (the one with the charr). I’m in the courtyard you break into and stand in front of the biggest statue there and ponder it before it is blown up (I can’t target it). I’ve tried this twice, but doesn’t seem to work. Any ideas?

You need to /ponder in front of the statue while some of the mobs are still alive.
I did it today, it worked.
im crafting bolt, i know tier 3 is bugged, but i have stuck on tier 2 by an annoying bug.
when i speak with the Grandmaster Weaponsmith (either in LA, Rata Sum etc) it gives me 3 options:
1. I forgot how to craft a Weighted Sword Blade.
2. I forgot how to craft a Balanced Sword Hilt.
3. Superior sword forging tools.
option 3 works fine, option 1 looks good
but when i go for option 2 (the Hilt) npc gives me the response for option 1
and the recipe for Hilt is not in my Recipes …
i have done the previous steps without problems
any1 have the same bug?

After update. At Professor Portmatt interacting with the console, gives the item Industrial Espionage. I had to interact with it twice, cause the first time it gave me Decrypted Weapons Research needed for the Predator.
Gonna try to see if Moogooloo got an update
EDIT:
Moogooloo also worked. There is a pile of debris (where it always was) destroying that, releases a Quaggan (i’ve also had it release a Toxic Kraitt before), that just gave me all i needed to complete Storm. Apparently it’s fixed guys
Quip III: Black powder is still not in game at the specified vendor. Blocking progress for half the collection (Making the confetti pouch impossible). Just so you guys still know.
They fixed the indigo mushrooms not stacking but the drop rate of these is still astronomically low considering we need 250 of the mushrooms to finish the craft. Been grinding mushrooms since patch release and only gotten two mushrooms to drop. The grind is real and pointless
Frenzy III: The Quaggan Games event in Frostgorge sound is fixed, which allowed me to complete the collection. The Quaggan Friendship bracelets from the collection are still impossible to delete however. 14 slots perma-used in my bags…
Kamohoali’i Kotaki III: The diving goggles in Frostgorge won’t register for the collection.
Not sure if this is as of todays patch or not. I completed Carcharias a bit ago. I did have a couple instances where I needed to do the diving goggles more than once in order to get them to register, however the one in FGS registered the first time around. If you have the time, you might try it a few times, as it would be important to know if this is something that was working but is now broken.
