Guild Wars 2

Thanks, this is great news! My only request would be sending a server message next time before the emergency shutdown. If you did send one and I missed it, well that’s my fault. But either way, thank you!

It’s happened to me twice already since the hotfix. During the final meta the map will close and everyone will be transferred to a different map. Pretty much making it impossible to finish the event and failing.

The precursor for the legendary shield has peaked to an almost all time high. I’m just curious as to what might have caused the sharp increase in price? Not like the shield was updated at all, nor do I see anything about the supply or demand that would warrant this. Other than maybe another player trying to take advantage of the scarce market and make a flip profit on the shields.

Just that, every time you change a zone you have to reopen your inventory and re-summon whichever mini you chose to sport around tower. Then when you change a zone again there it goes again. Not that I like comparing other MMOs to each other, but that’s what makes the industry grow, competition. Why not just have a sidebar of maybe 1 to 5 buttons that allow you to put things like pets, food, other consumables in. That way you don’t have to open your inventory every single time, find it, and select it. Call me lazy, but I don’t run around with my prized mini collection because it’s such a pain to have to re-summon them every time I want to do something new in a different zone.

Why?

Just because you have tons of one item doesnt mean you are entitled to convert it into an item you need.

You can upgrade tier materials, why not downgrade them?

I agree, a side bar would be really nice. Kind of a pain having to have mini-pets in your inventory, not to mention having to summon them EVERYtime you change a zone.

Recently in September a bunch of legendary weapons got visual upgrades, most of them were larger/more impressive footfall effects. So far to my knowledge the only legendary weapons without footfall effects are The Minstrel (focus), and The Flameseeker Prophecies (shield). Of course the underwater weapons wouldn’t have footfall effects since you aren’t walking. Not to mention that the shield (the legendary I want to make naturally) doesn’t have footfall effects, I do not recall it getting any visual upgrades in that last patch that effected legendary weapons. I could be wrong though.

I would really like to see some updates to both of these legendary weapons because I think they are some really interesting ideas. The Minstrel is probably my favorite legendary, but I rarely use focus on any of the characters I play and it’s effects are so small that I don’t think it’s worth all the effort of making. Most notably footfalls considering that’s how most people recognize someone has accomplished crafting a legendary. You walk along and see footfalls and notice that the person next to you has a legendary. Perhaps distortion footfalls like a rain drop of water in a puddle or maybe scattered pages for footfalls for The Flameseeker Prophecies. The Minstrel could have footfalls of more music notes, or have footfalls of staff sheet music.

Would love to see if there is a constructive response to this, especially if that response is in some near approaching patch notes!

I’ve been having trouble finding a rifle build for engineers, and I really want to make the rifle legendary

Another poster thinking hes cool. Brah, I looked, I wanted to express my own anguish toward what just happened. Nice try

Edited…sheesh

Just a show of imcompetency from a company shutting down after the most important night and anticipated by players for WvW. Now I’m stuck in que because I downloaded 2 milliseconds after everyone else. GJ

QQ and can’t even pew pew…

Theres a difference between helping, and then trolling to an extent. One post would have sufficed, and even then a more “helpful” tone would have been better. Irritating a player is not helping another player. Simply voicing my opinion, and hoping it is looked at and agreed upon. And following the intention of hoping Anet sees it, well then oh well if they know about this, its another push from another customer in the same direction. Its not an obtrusive post, nor is it a negative post. I made sure this post was constructive via my opinion base.

Right now WvW is a mess of guilds and players transferring to other servers to either get good competitive matchups or easy wins. Usually the latter. So the top servers are transferring down and then leaving empty borderlands for the next matchup. I’m on Blackgate right now and our matchup is horrendous. 10 minutes into the reset we owned all of our borderlands and were in control of 75% of everything else. 30 minutes later we had taken everything. I’ll enclose a picture of what our score looks like today, 10/20.

The fact of the matter is that we are fighting empty servers. Why? Because they either all transferred to our server or transferred elsewhere. How are they able to do that? Because there is no penalty to transferring and it is completely free. There is also no reward for staying on your server other than friends and guilds you are apart of. I’m not saying there should be a reward, simple solution, make server transfers cost money, and make it once a month. If that doesn’t suit the tastes of some players, then make it once a week. This way the ratings of WvW actually show true rank, instead of how many players transferred to us or out this week compared to last.

Its a simple fix and to keep everyone happy, give all the players a week notice to pick which server they want to stay on before the change is put into place.

TL:DR Make server transfers cost money

cough line of warding cough

I’ve had the same issue myself, I wouldn’t be so irritated if it wasn’t for the fact that they made a PoI only obtainable through a story quest. So far it is the only PoI that I am aware of that is unreachable in the game unless done via story quest. So that means my world completion is put on hold for another week or 2. Oh well, glad they at least found a fix (hopefully), can’t wait for the update anyways =)
