Guild Wars 2

Rune of Lyssa and Dagger Storm have a strange interaction where the rune’s 6th effect would only trigger after Dagger Storm ends and sometimes halfway during the Dagger Storm’s channel duration. It should have triggered as Dagger Storm starts.

I suppose this is because of the nature of Dagger Storm’s channeling ability. However, cancelling dagger storm would invoke its full cool down (not a 3s delay like other ultimates with cast time) so it should have trigger the effect at the start of the dagger storm. I figured that a possible fix is to add a 1/4s cast time to dagger storm to start the channeling phase of dagger storm so it could correctly activate superior rune of Lyssa’s 6th effect.

Edit: after further testing, it seems that a developer has attempted a fix for this issue (it’s been reported before). The problem is that the activation of the rune’s full effect is very erroneous. Outside combat, it is guaranteed that the rune’s effect will only activate after Blade Storm ends. During combat, activation is randomly between right after cast (I suppose this is the intended effect) to 1-sec delay after end of channel.

Extract from rules of conduct

While playing Guild Wars 2, you must respect the rights of others and their rights to play and enjoy the Game. To this end, you may not defraud, harass, threaten, embarrass or cause distress and/or unwanted attention to other players. This includes posting insulting, offensive, or abusive comments about players, repeatedly sending unwanted messages, reporting players maliciously, attacking a player based on race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. Hate speech is not tolerated.

Remember that you are playing under arenanet rules, not full metal jacket’s.

I’ve seen patone threw a fit and it is understandable that some kittens with limited thinking capacity would take offense and report him. While it is sad that kittens could easily troll in wvw unpunished, you have agreed to play by arenanet’s rules and that’s just the end of the discussion.

Okay, let’s follow your logic.

Have you ever gone fishing? Have you ever managed to land ALL the fishes?

No? End of discussion.

Just so you know, arenanet is only concerned for protecting themselves as stolen credit card transactions will be reversed and voided. In your case, you are the minority.

Both of them break the rules. How swiftly they are dealt is irrelevant.

Eolwynd.9847:

So this morning i decided to buy Gems through Paypal, got the gems, converted them to Gold. Then tried to send a part of it to my friend, so the game will be more enjoyable for her and for me….. as you can guess i cannot send her the few gold pieces i want.

Be thankful enough that you cannot send her the gold. There are people that get banned for doing this and they only get reinstated after some days.

The “no sending gold after converting gold from gems” acts as an early safeguard against stolen credit card/paypal accounts. This is a way to make sure that fraudsters would have a hard time to launder the gold from trading gems.

I don’t think arenanet will relent on cases like these, because rules.

What’s sad is the fact that the absence of one commander would have such impact on WvW. There’s more wrong in the WvW system than Patone getting rage-baited.

I just tested it again in the mist, and like pirate said, I’m wrong.

Perhaps it really was wvw bonus skewing my memory of it. You need maximum healing stat (1200) to get 2100 shout heals.

Terribly sorry for the mixup. Arenanet didn’t ninja nerfed after all.

It’s because I do dungeons that I noticed this. All of sudden my party and I start to die easily and I just realized that my shouts are only healing for ~1700 on cleric gear totaling 615 healing power.

Acme Tux Serum Six.8520:

I was healing for 2,351 at 80 with my shouts. I am now healing for 2,231. I think I’ll survive.

I’m rather interested as to how much Healing Power you currently use in your build.

Before the ninja nerf, using 300 healing power, healing shouts would heal for about 1500 and adding it up to 615, it would heal for about 2100.

Post nerf, it’s 1435 and 1680, respectively. Healing power only gives a measly 1:1 ratio to healing skills while vit gives a 1:10 ratio to hp (you would need to use healing skill 10 times to make it worthwhile compared to vit).

As it stands now, Healing power is totally worthless for ANY warrior build. I know that it was quite too powerful in sPvP but currently this stat is just a total garbage to be any of use.

EDIT: disregard this, I’m a drunk moron. See my last reply on the topic.

Lyuben.2613:

Why do people talk about it as if range is its only problem?

Have you seen its horrendous damage? And since its a turret, it completely ignores your stats.

So…
Immobile
Dead Zone
Destructible
Poor Damage, when compared to grenades
Worse range than grenades

They need to make it either scale to your stats, or REALLY buff up the damage. Because even if they buffed up the range, grenades, a utility slot item, would be better than an elite slot item.

Horrendous? A single 5th skill shot could take out 1/3-1/2 of enemy hp AND knocks them (sometimes out of a wall). 3rd skill heals for a fair amount and 4th also slows rather well. 2nd is so-so but it covers a large area.

A well placed mortar could buy your world 30-60 seconds from those gate knockers.

The reason that its range won’t go past 1500 is because it’s relatively the farthest range achieved without siege engines (grenadiers and longbow rangers). Having the mortar to shoot farther than 1500 would make it very very difficult for enemy to retaliate against mortars.

There is a fixed map of nodes and those maps are rotated between servers each time a new build is pushed.

This is a reminder that we now have a wiki page for this bug list.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/List_of_Engineer_bugs

You can help maintain it by editing it or testing unconfirmed bugs.

Grizor.6543:

Can’t switch kits in the air, unlike every other class who can weapon swap while jumping or falling.

Since kits are coded to behave as bundles, the coding that prevents bundles to be dropped while in air must be interfering with it.

Then again, not all kits are able to be equipped while in air. Grenade and Fire works while med and eligun can’t.

Edit: as I was editing and formatting the bug reports, I got an urgent call for my work and I won’t be available to maintain this list for the remainder of the week. If someone would like to take it over, you may do it as such.

Can we have a wrapper so typing [[Med Kit]] would result in Med Kit ?

If you opened a thread with /first#postXXXXXX at the end of the link, the only visible forum tool is the permalink tool. All other tools are missing and we need to edit the link to /first (without #postXXXXXX) to restore functionality again.

I’m having the same problem and apparently it is because of the forum’s memorizing feature. You need to edit the link so it won’t redirect you to the new messages. Delete the #xxxxxx after /first and you will be good again.

Actually I stumbled your post because I’m about to report this bug.

People are saying that weapon kits don’t scale with weapons but I don’t even know whether this is a bug or a feature.

Wazabi.1439:

How do you know the price increase is due to people cornering the market and not demand raising? You do know the market have 2 million participants right?

With my proposed system, you will know for sure that a price increase WILL be because of demand raising and not people cornering the market.

Normal people will have nothing to lose with the proposed system. If anyone will be hurt with the system, it’s those traders/scalpers.

The easiest example being Mystic Coin. Someone posted a thread in reddit about mystic forge recipes and incited people to try the recipes. Coins prices jumped twenty-fold in under 8 hours from 53c to more than 11s in its peak.

The most recent example is Stick of Butter and other t1 ingredients as discussed here .

Those practices only benefit the most hardcore (with 0day information) or wealthy (enough money to buy all the things) players and only leave the rest of the populace with a ridiculously inflated price.

>I only see it benefiting you because you want those items to be lower in price.
How would that benefit me? Items would not be lower in price. The real market or demand would dictate the price, not some scalpers/hoarders with enough capital to sway the price.

>My suggestion is find a way to cut your costs or make more gold versus trying to have the design team alter the economy for you.

This makes you look like one of those scalpers. The game already have too much gold sinks and the design team already brutally altered the economy around cooking ingredients.

Many commodities are being manipulated by people with plentiful of gold for the sole purpose of scalping. Players that legitimately need to use the items are forced to buy it at a very jacked up prices.

I’m proposing that some items (trophies and consumables; mystic coins, globs, cooking ingredients) are changed to be account bound upon retrieval from the trading post. This will stop people from scalping/hoarding items.

Because of various reasons, I will now maintain the Engineer’s bug list on GW2 wiki:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/List_of_Engineer_bugs

You can add on your own or if you don’t understand wiki syntax, just post here and someone will add it for you.

This thread is exclusively for bug reports. Suggestions and discussions should be posted at other threads.
