Guild Wars 2

I recently logged on to several characters that i had not played in quite some time. On two of them, opening a birthday gift caused the character to be downed and I did not receive anything. One was a 1st year gift, the other was 2nd.

Are you sure that was the birthday gift and not the gift Scarlet sends you? Because Scarlet’s gift does what you describe.

It is impossible to have received a second year Birthday gift, as the game has not been out that long. Scarlet gifts use a ‘gift’ icon, and will down your character upon opening.

ahh, thats what it must have been. scarlets gift.

thanks guys!
