Guild Wars 2

Hi Guys,

Don’t know if i’m being an uber noob here, but i’ve searched the web and can’t find anything about what ingredients to combine in discovery to create a Major Sigil of Bloodlust.

If anyone has an answer, please let me know!

Once i vote kicked afk-er on the phone after being afk for 10 min because i wanted to finish asuran fractal because Mentalist was on in 30 min on tv and i wanted to watch it.

That’s the best thing i’ve heard all day.

Yea but just imagine the clipping…

Clipping will be an issue, if the cape is not given proper collision detection settings.

GW1 had collision detection on the torso and head only, which caused the cape to clip with armor and limbs.

For Charr, proper collision detection is required, especially when running.

Perhaps this is what is taking them so long to release a cape? Perhaps they ARE building capes, but getting the whole physics of it right is important to them and taking them a while alongside other tasks.

Definitely need to be able to buy a guild cape from the Guild Registrar! That made my GW1 players look like ultimate bosses. BRING THEM BACK!

It would make it too easy for people to get the awesome skins right? Like the Ghastly Grinning Shield (IMO the best freaking skin ever). If everyone was running around with one of them it wouldn’t be as cool anymore!

So those of you who have played since launch will remember the first Halloween (Mad Kings Day) and Christmas (Wintersday) events. I thought these events were incredible and I just couldn’t get myself off the game whilst they were on. The past 2 halloween and xmas events were essentially just copies of the first ones (don’t get me wrong it’s still fun) but it just felt a bit stale you know?

Anyway, I was just posting to ask if anyone has any info about those upcoming events. Will they just become part of the Living Story stuff, or will they do a full blown event again?

P.S – I want LA back to normal.
P.S.S – If this is on the wrong place, please feel free to move it.

Guild Halls and Alliances is something that definitely should be implemented. It would add a whole new dimension to the game!

I agree with the dungeon grinding comment from Azrael. However I do feel that some more back items would be cool. And a way around the whole dungeon grind would be to only give them out on cool occasions such as Halloween, Wintersday etc. Plus if they are only handed out on occasion you feel that little bit more special y’know?!

Also, not to be one of those people, but I would quite like a big old cape to flap around in the wind. I know it’s standard of other games to get capes and cloaks, but my characters feel a little naked on here with their backs exposed…

I’m not saying you don’t have a point, and if anything i feel like these ‘Daily’ achievements are designed to take up 2 days imo – some of us don’t have the time.

However, you don’t HAVE to do the daily’s to enjoy the game.

possibly relate to….

aha, awesome! how’d you manage that?

GvG would be really nice, but I wonder what the player limitation would be. If it’s 5v5, they might as well just make it a mode in sPvP and guilds would queue it regularly. If it’s 10v10, WvW guilds would complain. If it’s 20v20, sPvP guilds would complain (because it turns into more of a clumpfest).

I was thinking more of a huge battleground where the whole Guild can get involved. A 300 v 300 player war would be so fun IMO. There could be ranking tables and different Guild Rewards for different achievements/rankings.

Also, what do you mean by solo player guilds?

Hey all, I hope you are well.

I’m firstly going to kick this post off with my view on the game. I’m not a massive poster on the forum, but regularly visit to see what is going on and what people have to say. Honestly, this is the first MMORPG I have played which I am yet to get bored of. Other well known games – such as one who’s name resembles an impressed person – were good for 6 months or so and then everything became the same until an unimpressive expansion came out. This game however is constantly evolving into a beautiful, exciting and most of all FUN digital world to take some time out of real life and relax and have a good time. The constant addition of new events just keeps pulling me in further to the game play and as time goes on, people views ARE being heard and implemented as the game develops and grows, and I can only hope that the development team keeps up the brilliant work.

Anyway, on to the main substance of this post…
As someone who played the original ‘Guild Wars’ for many years, this game is a HUGE step up from that. However, there are aspects of that game in which I think are fundamental in order for this game to progress even further.

The first aspect I would like to talk about is the infamous ‘Guild Hall’.
Guild Halls not only gave the guild a sense of accomplishment in the fact that they had worked so hard to achieve an area of the game they could call ‘theirs’, but it meant that the Guild could also hold gatherings, events and throw parties for their Guild Members to enjoy after a hard days gaming.

I feel as though this would benefit GW2 perfectly as there are so many brilliant, friendly and dedicated Guilds on the game, that they deserve a place to unwind and play a game of Belchers Bluff. The Guild Halls could be made public to throw huge parties for ANYONE to attend, even the Sons of Svanir if they wish (gatecrash event, why am i not on the dev team?!). There we go, just an idea.

Also I feel that the game has lost the meaning of the name. GUILD WARS. There are no Guild Skirmishes going on or anyone at war with each other any more! These were fun times for me, and also, not everyone is a good guy

Aside from these two points, please keep up the amazing work ANET and I eagerly await the arrival of Halloween, as last years Halloween festival was amazing.

Anyone else got anything they want to add? Throw your Two Cents in too!

Thanks,

Hi All,

If this is treading on any other post, please do not hesitate to merge/move it.

Anyway, to the point. I recently logged back in after a couple of weeks absence and although logging in to a new update is always a lovely thing, I’m having some trading post issues. What used to take around 5 seconds to load now seems to take a few minutes if not at all. Its not affecting my gameplay a lot but it means tasks that should take a couple of minutes – such as selling some unwanted items – are now taking half an hour <.

Ive tried what fixes I could find on this forum such as switching the language back and forth as well as trying to delete data files and restarting the game, however these have not proved successful.

I am running the game on Mac if that makes any difference at all.
Please dont hesitate to ask for more info if I havent described the situation enough.

Thanks,
Aphiroth

Feel free to merge this if i am treading on another post…

For the fireworks finale, what time will this be for england? i wanna make sure i get a sweet dragon helm!

So i’m going to be honest, i’ve just started a guild. It’s called The Royal Tyrian Alliance.
I know it’s not the most enticing of things considering we’re brand new, but we’re looking for active and friendly players to fill some high ranking positions and help us gain new members, get the guild to a better standing and hopefully in the near future start participating in WvWvW + sPvP swell as doing dungeons ect.

If you fancy it, send a mail in game to Aphiroth.4608

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Much love

Hey Buddy!
Welcome, i’m pretty positive you’ll have an awesome time playing, and also on the forums.
Pretty much what everyone else said, so yeah!
HAVE FUN!

that much is true, hopefully it’ll be a cool event!
Anyone know if it’s gonna be a 19:00gmt release again?

i dunno, im Ele so i don’t use em atm, but they are pretty wide but i think it’s kinda cool! I personally prefer swords that have some sort of cool skin, like a flaming one, or one that has a red glow ect. Idk many people have different preferences. this was a pointless post. i apolgise.

that is epic! thanks for translating that. Can’t wait to see the new area. I’m working hard on making my main toon lvl 80 for the release of the new area, @ lvl 70 right now, 10 more to go…

Pretty sure the zone upscales you to 80.

How come it would up-scale you? Is it not a PVE zone?

Hey, i’m not sure if i’ve posted this to the right area, so feel free to move it, but how long will this ‘One Time’ event last for? coz if it’s only one time and i’m working when it happens, i’ma be real pissed! I hate missing out on cool stuff!

So I’m taking it from the very little amount of research I have done, legendary weapons are very hard to create. So are they actually any good in comparison to your standard exotics? Do they have ‘supreme’ stats and damage? And do any of you possess one, and which one!?

Y’know I’ve only been playing for about a month, but I haven’t encountered any bots yet. Either that or I have been too naive to notice… Who knows!

there was a thread asking about whether the Halloween event could be made longer due to Hurrican Sandy, and they said no due to the upcoming november 15th update, https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/halloween/Hurricane-Sandy-Interrupts-our-Halloween-Event-Merged/page/3 – scroll down a bit.

Also, what are 5 bots?

So after all the Halloween excitement, ANet have been even more generous and decided to smack a big update in soon after. I for one am UBER excited, i love new stuff, and with the game consistently changing and new things coming in, i don’t lose interest (which i tend to do easily when playing MMO’s).

What does everyone else think? AND what do you think is going to be implemented?!
Perhaps a run-up to christmas? Who knows…

All good points!
I may start trying to build myself up with some more defensive stats act, but probably still focus on DPS. Is it a bad choice though?

ALSO is it worth maybe trying to throw some +Healing in there?

I’ve always been one to basically focus all my stats and traits towards doing the most damage and taking down my target as fast as possible, but I was wondering if it best to start balancing this out a bit with some more defensive stats ect. Eg using armor with some toughness in or something, especially as I’m getting to higher levels now.

Just wanted a bit of advice, thanks guys!

Small guild, extremely friendly, growing quickly, active players. WvW, dungeons, PvP.
More info, just ask!

I’ve just hit the point of my story in which i have to choose which order i want to belong to. I chose the vigil, but what one do you prefer?
