Guild Wars 2

I am currently stuck at Incinerator III spark. I know a solution which is to go to an overflow or a new map instance but because of the overflow and the megaserver system we can’t easily go to another map server. Sadly this causes us to be stuck in the event forever now getting us anywhere.

I am looking for OTHER solutions of fixing this. It is ridiculous that I can’t progress to my legendary collection Spark III. Literally the last thing this collection that is required for other collection pieces. I should have learned my lesson Bifrost. I was having fun doing all these stuff then the old bugs. There has to be a way of going to an overflow without people in it.

First join map do the preevent try your best to collect all the materials but dont ever submit it in. After 10 minutes when the boss is half hp, get out of combat, and port out of the map. Port back in and complete pre event and get crystalized done.

The longest worth while most difficult legendary precursor to get is obtainable. Battle against all odds my friends from ArenaNets codes, to gw2 economy, and even against gw2 players.

Have you guys tried destroying the crystals he spawns to regenerate?
do they count?

Nope.

I want my legendary not to be just some money thing. I also want it to have a story like acquiring colors doing quests making it feel like a true legendary weapon with a background. I know most people will not see it this way and although I am 100% upset with Bifrost III specifically getting sharded and corals my overall experience with it was positive. However, the this low level of negative is almost about outweigh how I feel about legendary crafting. At this point I am completely torned. Should I do more to get a story out of my legendary or just say it was all pure cash that made my legendary.

Here is my achievements so far in the game:
Permanent bank express, permanent hair stylist, permanent trading post, permanent vendor, maxed out bank slots to combine with permanent bank express now I have a 280 account bound bag slot, 3 permanent salvage kit, and also including nightfury. I also have ascended armor for all 3 armor types at berserker with stregnth runes.

Related with the topic, i couldnt find ley-line energy spot to charge Jade Maw Lens in Dry Top for Bifrost 3 collection.

Anybody have idea?
… Good luck all of us in Shatterer…

You remember where Taimi was conducting research in Leyline magic. right on the north side of the story part there is kitten with leyline energy coming out of it just keep pressing the lens to figure out which hole. You still have to climb up to get it.

Well, I know…shatterer…. I will just wake up before 5am and find empty map…it shouldn’t be a problem. I could find empty shatterers many times before HoT and was angry about it.

Seriously everyone finds this solution okay?

Disclaimer this is a rant from my previous forum post. I hate posting here because I can’t be anonymous.

I want to know how long it will take for Anet to fix collection for Bifrost III?. Why not just delete it or just program it to say just beat shatterer?. Why is it so difficult for Anet to move away from RNG? to request that players don’t use blind on a shatterer event so that we the player who NEEDS the collection from 100 players attacking shatterer, knowing full well that he can be blinded, and it can only target 5 players to be crystalized. So let’s do the math on how bad this RNG is 5/100 times then factor that they don’t use any skill that involves blind within 7 minutes or their traits doesn’t randomly use it or their pets that randomly cause it.

It took me 18 hours to do coral farming to get 10 diodes required to get the painting collection. Over 500 harvesting ticks and the worst part is to find it underwater in level 50 maps added the fact that you can only harvest them once.

Overall I WAS enjoying the Bifrost Collection for the people who can just ignore the RNG congratulations you guys are saints. I went through this collection not because of cost (That doesn’t matter to me). The small little things like this makes the entire collection precursor collection faulty and not worth doing.

I just want to know how long will it take

Welcome to the world of Precursor crafting

Your problem is that you expected it to be a none RNG method like some people expected it to be a cheaper, faster, or merely a method that can be done solo.

Nope it’s there just to drain all of your mats the Bifirost needed like 40 spiritwood planks or something I think. Well those are daily CD items that can’t be used to craft legendary armor and any future items. Like the Damask Patch to drain leather from the economy this is just mats and to get you to stay on longer because the mats you don’t have you’ll be on for hours farming them or draining gold buying them.

I wasn’t expecting an easier cheaper method of doing it. I know that from the start before doing this journey. I know anet will do their best to maintain their strong value point in black lion but to expect that you have to pay god knows how much versus time involved in hoping to get lucky after 300+ corals that can only be found 3 times in a specific map only to get 4 after that amount is not fair.

Expecting an entire mob of players to not blind the shatterer mob and the shatterer to incase you in crystal in the 5 – 7 minute event. That only respawns every 2 hours plus the fact that he can be blinded making his attack miss.

So go ahead criticize me for being mentally upset. Cause I am upset instead of enjoying the rest of the game I am stuck underwater looking for corals watching the shatterer timer in windowed mode. HOPING he hits me. GO defend this level of design and say that this is proper gameplay.

Oh and also don’t forget you only get corals in 50+ underwater maps so good luck. If you happen to be in the same map as you were in before you will never know.

Here is a background of activities I have done in 8 hours.

Going in the water looking for corals. I have spent over 250 harvesting clicks for corals and I only got 4. NOTE that there is only 3 node locations in the map and you only get to hit it once. IT IS NOT LIKE ANY OTHER ORE. Next is the “Shatterer” you have to god knows hope that he crystalizes you for whatever bloody reason that is even related to the Bifrost no explanation whatsover. You have to hope, HOPE that he isn’t blinded and he targets you out of 100 people that is attacking shatterer for their daily.

You already punished my collection tab resource enough. There is no reason that you need to involve 0.00001% RNG variable into a precursor collection. I have spent so much gold that if I knew JUST KNEW that RNG was seriously involved I would have just bought the precursor on Black Lion. As it stands I have lost over 600 gold worth in materials I am too deep I can’t get myself out of this hole I was deluded into.

I also have the same bug mine is worst I am missing 6 weapon skins. In my collection tab even though i unlocked it on the wardrobe and it shows I unlocked it on the wardrobe.

I am worried does this change also include World Vs World. Although I am not a WvW player I can only imagine the consequences if this effect applied to WvW. I can only imagine firestorm hitting minnions doing no damage. Over 100 people using MM necro/reaper and just swarming and winning fights because aoe counts 5 people and ignores the rest.

Um. The second part of your post? The “because aoe counts 5 people and ignores the rest” part? That’s how it is right now. Do you see “over 100 people using MM necro/reaper and just swarming and winning fights” right now? No?
That’s because there is a LOT more aoe abilities in this game than there are minion abilities. Not protecting minions against that aoe death just leaves minions where they are right now: useless in WvW.

I am sincerely worried that aoe attacks will no longer prioritize players and go straight to minions in a large scale battle. Do you like your firestorm to be completely negated when you target a zerg attacking a door? Maybe get some or worst case scenario 0 damage on rams since there may be mersmer, necro, and ranger pets by the gate?. Does that sound like good gameplay?. This is a pressing issue I understand fully PVE it is absolutely fantastic change but then when you start seeing the application in WvW will this functionality stick in WvW or will we get a separate balance patch for it?

I am worried does this change also include World Vs World. Although I am not a WvW player I can only imagine the consequences if this effect applied to WvW.

Also add in Rune of Aristocracy on the list. As a person who mains condition engineer that relies heavily on using kits at 10 seconds to gain 3 might stacks and maintain those might stacks it’s a very big nerf to me.

I don’t care how you handle it but you need to handle it. This is become an instant negative propaganda in the reddit forums. At first I thought it was okay to let this slide but this is not something you want new future people to see in the future.

Minions spawn too fast at “Shroud Ruin” about a 1 second spawn time. Easily exploitable with bots on a corner map with high cleave capability.

Event bugs:

Bug with event named “Escort the pact soldier” at Heartless Pass soldier just gives up and fails when end point is contested instead of rerouting or waiting for point to be recaptured.

Others:

Needs better way to explain how mastery system works. A tutorial maybe. Knowing it exist does not equal the full understanding of how it works.

The icon on the end of experience bar to indicate what track your on is too small it is hardly noticeable by anyone.

Opinions on Revenant:

The animation used is too strong and lingers way too much. It distracts the other professions if the animations linger too long.

Base damage and cast time is too weak. To explain the raw on base attack skill 1 is too low for it’s cast time. The damage and the time to cast spells using Revenant doesn’t give a huge pay off. Leaving a lot of people dissatisfied.

Opinions on map:

Feels brand new but as an existing player for a very long time it feels that I got lost again when playing it all out. I didn’t get the feel to understand how things work until I talked to the NPC.

Dragon Hunter is not a good name lets face it. Arbiter fits the role much more even in the upcoming expansions. For example, lets say ArenaNet decide to make an expansion that doesn’t involve dragon slaying; there will be no reason for a dragon hunter to be in that expansion. However with Arbiter fits the bill regardless of expansion. It fits with trap theme, light theme bow shooter, etc.

Everyone please discuss your thoughts.

Here it is.

“Announce GW2 to be coming out soon to PS4”

Now why?. It’s simple many people these days are casual players that would play casual games and GW2 is one of them. Think about all the people who aren’t tech savy and that would like to play a game however they like and the recent updates of Guild Wars 2 to be new player friendly. Allow me to add more reason as to why it should be added in. People these days are mixed between what console games and PC games they should play imagine just imagine people having a choice between destiny and guild wars 2 on the start up of their PS4 these will not only increase players but also increase the sale in the BLTC.

So what do you guys think about it? hate it? love it?

@Vayne with the system they have in place it can easily be fixed and prevent players to come in and create a new instance of it. You could also stop them from following you on major cities to remove the lag.

Just add in an AI companion you know? the one you get to pick as your BFF on the start of the game. He tells you how to fight as he is more experienced. He will give you dialogue on what to do and maybe show you some sweet moves. He will tell you where to go and if the area is a high level area he will tell you the place is a no no or we kinda feel inexperienced for the area. He/she will teach you how to dodge, will guide you through the places history(how this place became this place, etc), combo finishers, and any ideas you can think off.

This will not only help the new players but also the old players. It allows us customized NPC that can be found in our housing right? OMG. That’s right our house is no longer empty with NPC’s we couldn’t care less about. Later on the game we can unlock more NPC that we can play with and give us a far more understanding of each zone.

All in all I find my solution much better as we don’t have dismantle something that already works but it also adds depth and flavor to the game.

I am adding this post I made on Reddit found on this link

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2dwyky/why_cant_super_adventure_box_be_permanent_content/

Now before we start. I want to stress out that the idea of making players more focus in their objective is complete bull. People role-play should Anet stop them from role playing. What about activities such as Evon Gnashblade’s survival game, karka toss, kreg ball and many more why aren’t they locked up somewhere nowhere to be seen for another billion years. If you are going to argue that you don’t earn anything significant out of it well guess what, so does Super Adventure Box you only get a few skins and a few achievements which some activities also provides and at worst you can always remove skins as a drop and force the players to actually grind for the skins by making it for themselves. So tell me a good reason why? the few lost players that will be playing Super Adventure Box. If so I challenge the statistics of how many players will be lost vs the actual number of people playing the game.

Also I would like to add that just because the world is happening and its current events are happening doesn’t mean you should hide other content that was made. Think of it this way if America goes on war with North Korea real time does that mean we can stop playing video games? the answer is obviously no. Removing a game within a game for a reason that just states it doesn’t match with living story is completely ignorant. There is very limited repetitive content that people are willing to do because it becomes extremely stale and boring after a while. It is the major reason why you keep losing fan base even after a good solid X amount of months.

Yup just messaged me today he lost all gold and all his t4-5 mats and about 50 ectos in it.

My friend MrBee has been having weird issues and it brings up this page asking for a mobile authenticator password but he assured me that he never set one up in the first place. Is it possible that the web page is wrong or are we seeing a new version of ways people steal peoples accounts.

Same issue can’t play this game with thief can’t dodge anything. You press attack he attacks 3 years later, you press dodge you get hit by a truck, you emote cry death animation. Please fix.

I logged in 6 hours ago and I started lagging as well. What’s going on? Located in Canada and I have no internet issues I check my fps on other video games but Guild Wars 2 is lagging.
