Guild Wars 2

OK, so that is what we are supposed to wait for? Can anyone in ANet verify this. Is this it for blade shards? I would like to destroy them and free up quite a few bank slots for something else “useful”. So ANet please verify.

A long long time ago, new uses for blade shards were promised. I am just wondering what year they will come out. If they mean to release it 10 to 20 years from now, they should not have said it will be coming soon, unless of course that is what they mean by soon?

Are they still going to be used for something? I know it has been promised to have some use for it. Is the use to take up bank slot so you have to buy more bank slots? Or am I just expecting it within the decade and I am just being impatient waiting for the year 2021? Or is it the year 2101?

Ok. I was switching targets during the fight to see if they will appear. Thanks for the screen shot – now I can just wait for them.

More were attacking the menders so they were out of the way quickly. It looked like they spawned more than once.

OK. Just did the event and succeeded. Watched out for the menders and attacked them when they appeared.

If you are attacking the menders, does it prevent them from healing? If the heal happens instantly from 50 – 100% do you just have to do an interrupt?

Yes, I understand that this was probably missed by most when there is a zerg on blue so it did not matter that much in previous days – I did not have this problem before on blue.

Then, it looks like the entire group should immediately kill the menders then go back to the Knight. If this is true, it will require better coordination.

Is there a group that has done this already?

Someone in another thread is claiming that one out of the 50 should kill the menders and “that will greatly increase the chance of Knights not healing.” I do not know how true that is but I will try again. However, you are right. This is nothing but a steaming heap of cow processed vegetation. The one who came up with this is probably very proud of themselves seeing how much attention it is getting.

I did not know about the menders until I checked the forums. In any case, it only takes one of the 50 to kill them? How many menders are there? If you do not get that last mender, can it just instantly regen the Knight to 100% in 1 second? Sorry, I just logged in and tried it so I have no idea. I kept busy trying to damage the Knights. I am just trying to find out what “greatly increase the odds of blue not healing” mean?

I am just waiting for the item in the Gem Store that could help everyone finish this run.

Really, this is intentional? Wow, do we need something from the Gem store to be able to do this run? If you are in overflow and does not have enough people just skip the event right? English is not my first language but is that what balance mean?

It is a steaming heap of cow processed vegetation.

Yep, you are not alone. I already tried the tech support route and I would advice not to use it unless you have a lot of patience because they will ignore the obvious and assume that the problem is on your end.

That is certainly how ANet’s tech support handling it. I know I am not the only one having this problem since the new content but they want me to run the diagnostic on my machine because to them the problem is on my end.

I agree with this thread. From what I am reading, I can see that at least most of you were able to participate. I on the other hand got kicked when the event started and was only able to login again after the evnet was over. Of course, ANet’s response to this is to ask for your error message as if no one knows why all this happened. Really?

Right now, as far as I am concerned, this is unfair. They should cancel this event and release it again when they are ready, or at least if I do not meet their requirements to play this new content, then let me at least play the other content.

That would be unfortunate if they made the event only for people with fast internet connection. At least announce that. By the way, I also cannot participate in the event for the same reasons as you. I can login fine when the event is not active.

They should just end this event now because it is unfair. I am amazed that some people are complaing that they got to the overflow when I can not even get into the game. If ANet is not ready for this content they should just end it, and if they created it for players with faster internet connection then announce it or inform everyone about the new internet requirement for the game.

Had the same problem. Why ignore the obvious. There was a game update and now I have problems with login and getting kicked when I try to participate in the event. And now they are trying to see if the issues that have been reported are related at all. Really? Really? Really???

It took me 21/2 hours before I can login again, and wow, by the time I was able to login, the event was over. I am experiencing an overflow of correlation.

Nope, they do not want everyone to participate. Got kicked and cannot log back in for 21/2 hours. Oh yeah, that was fun.

There is an even bigger monster that overflow. Try getting kicked from the game and the cannot log back in – about 21/2 hours for me. You got into an overflow, you are lucky that you even got to play.

How about just ending this event now. They were not prepared for this and ultimately made it unfair.

Maybe just make GW3 Tequatl? Or Tequatl only servers for about 2400 gems. At least I will be able to play the other content.

Or a better solution, why not just end the event now.

I spent over 2 hours just trying to login to the game just to get kicked over and over and most of the times the game client times out. Now, tech support seem to believe that this is only happening to me and it had nothing to do with the new event but if you can get to an overflow, you should take your blessings that you can play. And by the way, after the event was over, now I can login. I guess that is thanks to tech support because they looked at my account, and immediately fixed the bug that is isolated only to my game account.

They should end this event now. That is just fair.

Wow, I am so excited that I can finally post after 2 weeks that I can not get in – out of frustration I do not know how many times I attempted to connect to the forums hoping that by accident I may actually get in.

In any case I reported the same problem and the response was they want to see the error messages. Really???

New content, new updates and when I got kicked the event was happenning. I am not the smartest person so forgive me if I mistakenly conclude that the new event and content are causing my problems.

How about a new ingame “Failed Login Achievement”.

Maybe they can add a “Failed login achievement” for us all.

Same here. Someone should test the update before deployment or even right after.

Been having this problem in the last few hours. I had some success with login using one character but keeps failing with my other one. Now after the update I can not login at all.
