Guild Wars 2

So occasionally the trading post will “lose its connection with the game” where it will no longer show anything on the Sell Your Stuff and My Transactions tabs, and it will not let me buy anything (though I can browse items for sale). The gem/gold exchange tab still seems to work and the gem store tab sometimes works and sometimes is blank. Also, on any tab that shows your gem or gold totals at the bottom only the gem icon with 3 periods to the left of it appear. It seems pretty inconsistent; sometimes it won’t happen for many hours, other times it will happen within the first hour. But it is almost sure to happen every day I play more than a couple hours. Swapping characters does not fix it, the only fix I have found is completely closing the game and starting it back up.

edit: It’s done this 3 times in the last 7 hours or so…

I read that this works to temporarily fix the issue:

1. Open your trading post
2. One your options panel
3. Change the language to French
4. Wait for the trading post to reload in French
5. Change the language back to English (anglais)
6. Test trading post

It causes a gamma bug on Mac, but I don’t think it does for the pc.

Post back if it works for you.

Kyllaa is now my new favorite person! Worked like a charm.

I’m glad I’m not the only one this happens to. It seems to happen if close the Trading Post window and then try to reopen it right away, though I have had it happen reopening the Trading Post after an extended period. I had not heard of the trick with changing language, so will give this a try next time. The only thing I found to fix it was to exit completely out of the game and then log back in again.
