Guild Wars 2

Game is now updating properly after following process (for Mac) from Tanith’s thread (link above)

Launching is in the hands of Koda

Greetings

Male Asurans are so self absorbed that their genitalia is on the INSIDE
(which is a good thang considering Anet is considering skimpy male armour)

This give new meaning to the conundrum “which head does one think with”
& effectively doubles their IQ to DIQ

*note male Asurans are currently being sought for a thunktank regarding
more ingame quaggan content

Quaggan is best prepared slow cooked over sylvari. Can’t beat that smoky flavor.

As long as you get a noice CHARR first?

WACKA WACKABIMBOT

There is another rare recipe utilizing the original “Poobag” name

It’s for Poobag-pie
Gives you bad breath & a particular kind of grin

Greetings

I attempted your recipe, but when I approached famously violent goalie barbarian Ron Hextall with an avocado and…

Orby

Toldja it was a rare recipe & you swapped avocado for guava

Will Smith wants you for a cameo in Concussion Too

Personally, I would like to see Shashoo get an admiral hat and epaulets… something like Captain Crunch wears.

:D

I did come across this recipe though it is quite rare

Gua-quag-goalie

1 guava
1 tsp quaggan rage
1 goalie of your choice (footie or hockey or…)

Combine in the Ronco Bass-o-matic
Blend until chummy

Serves 9/u-rite

reikken.4961:

Quaggans are aquatic
Anet is phasing out underwater content

Greetings

This may be the case BUT there are a few settlements close to snowy lands

I give you: The Quaggan Tobaggan

Could be incorporated in battle somehow?

Coo… nice teeth

Bnoo out

Many thanks for clueing me in!

:D

Greetings

First off, congratulations to the teams that made it to the PvP finals
& to the ultimate champeens!!

I tuned in for the event out of curiosity AND because there was mention of PRIZES for doing so…

Who won the swag?
Checked the Twitter page and also todays update info

Bnoo out

Some really good tips here & thanks

“insanemaniac.2456
OP, why are you allowing yourself to be hit by these extremely slow and highly telegraphed attacks?”

insane, were you referring to the first couple of responses the OP got here?

Matriarch take them

Bnoo out

Another tip is to try to position yourself between/around/close to front/back feet IN THE WATER before Teq lifts off (deeper the better and in the zerg that can be hard to tell)
If you do go beneath the surface look for the submerged chest ASAP

Keep trying you’ll get it!!

Greetings

I think the OP is on to something i.e. a dedicated place ingame where noobs like myself have a good chance to connect with someone actually helpful

ArenaNet is optimistic about the sophistication of its ingame A.I.
Maybe we can have A.I.Mentors?

Either way, Mentoring needs nerf

Watch the ledges

Bnoo out

Raid boss anyone?

Koda the judge & Koda the jury

They are yes

However, I still think having ones available in Guild Hall would be a nice addition
Perhaps once guild reaches level 50 or ??
(guess what level my guild is :P )

Thanks for responding

Great story & thanks for sharing it

Like yourself, sometimes I sit still in the scenery & take it all in while the soundtrack gives me goosebumps

Some really great tips have been posted
Personally I never miss a chance to transform into a chicken or snow leopard or spider
(gives me a chance to experience a different kind of movement)

Keep on having fun!

Bnoo out

Greetings

Is there any chance these will be added at some point to the available resource instances inside our Guild Halls?

The additions would make Guild’s even more appealing to the “lone wolves” of the game as well as give Guilds MORE OOMPH

Matriarch take you

I did some research into the why’s & wherefore’s of our racial bioluminescence
Found mainly postings by players upset after the fact with little known about the feature’s existence (the joy/agony of discovery)

I also read this

https://web.archive.org/web/20121106101005/http://www.arena.net/blog/kristen-perry-on-designing-and-redesigning-the-sylvari

I’m wondering why there isn’t more to the feature as far as lore/colour scheme goes
Cycle of day born
Luminary

Random colour scheme acquired looks like an odd choice of light filter in Photoshop

I know I know EVERYONES A DESIGNER

Koda the judge & Koda the jury

I will check this out & many thanks!

phoo
you have nice teeth
:D

Yeah could be a bug perhaps
I’ve searched what other professions shields look like but none compare either
It specifically looks like it comes from a branded spark (the colouring)

I still think the idea that trophy drop pieces (TEQ, TT, SHATmeister etc) gave special effects after being deposited to Guild Decorations would add more ooomph to the process AND sharpen our powers of perception/sense of anticipation

Could be totally random and totally GNAWSOME

I tried asking those around me but they thought I was a lunatic

This mystery shield showed up again at the Jormag boss fight
It stayed with me after combat until I left the map
Any idea what it is?
(this kind of shtuff drives me bonkers)

Greetings magoo-ma’s

I’ve noticed some strangeness on the map that affected 2 of my 4 toons on different occasions after they each defeated Shatmeister

My engi had a “shield” that looked like a piece of a branded spark
It remained with me until I left the map (managed a screenshot)

My necro was able to “pick up” what looked like a static strike that applied itself to both my greatsword AND staff (when weapon swapping)
It almost felt like it had “fallen off” someone else’s Legendary & I could scoop it
(no screenshot managed)

No sigils or traits on my toon builds to suggest they caused

My overactive fertile imagination thought it might have something to do with Shatmeister’s Crystal trophy I had received on both toons

Which got my overactive fertile imagination thinking what a great idea it would be each/some of the trophy pieces we turned in had a one-time effect (like a shield or weapon charge that appeared the next time we fought that boss)

How many bosses give trophy pieces?

It would add a little extra ooomph while we get the umpteen dozen needed for “gold” stature upgrades & make the process less grindy

*goes to take meds

Greetings

I read something elsewhere regarding the posters thoughts on rune sets that have an “on hit” bonus (they thought they rewarded bad players)

I have 2 suggestions for Rata Sum’s on hit bonus which has a 50% chance to summon a Radiation Field

Radiation Field’s effectiveness depends on its ability to be placed/targetted IMHO
So for it to show up beside me isn’t really that beneficial unless I am being mobbed or swarmed

How about it gets placed BESIDE the person/npc that hit me?
This could open up more counter gameplay…

or

It only procs when hit by Melee attacks
(more benefit to me and includes still more possibility for counter gameplay)

Thanks for reading

edit: grammar

I did the cave run as well as all along the mines in Queensdale
Nada
Like previously posted I also did check out the runs posted on YouTube
Got lucky in Caledon
Could just be my account cuz there are lots of oddities (which seem to find me)

Thanks again

Thanks for all the support
& thank the 6 for Caledon Forest

Greetings

I loaded up one of the many generous boosts I have received in Black Lion Chests &
went-a-wandering looking for the elusive copper veins

I tried several of the 1-15 zones & found TONS of iron & silver but ZIPPO copper
Also had a look on YouTube for advice/locations & turned up copper-less as well

I understand they “reappear” every 23ish hours but I also thought I read something about nodes/veins being player specific

Perhaps copper “spawn” needs to be looked at?

Many thanks

Greetings

Thanks for all the replies
I think I have said enough on this topic

Bnoo out

Greetings

I think the point is being missed here because of how I expressed myself/introduced an idea that could be extrapolated on

It’s sad how people “shoot the messenger” here
It also looks like this could be my second thread to get shut down for that same reason

Point taken

Bnoo out

Greetings

The more accessible a game is the more successful a game can be
& ideas can come from unexpected sources

Anything ingame that opens up accessibility is WinWin regardless if it is because the Sun shines too bright “somewhere” on the planet

I’m here to have as much fun as possible & maybe help a few others along the way
(not be compensated for my error in display placement)

Hey Stranger

Please try to keep your comments constructive
or let me know if I need to dumb
myself
down

Elementalist is really fun to play (haven’t tried Thief yet)
Other build I have as well is Engineer

One of the things I like about my short time in this game so far is the different ways the races “move” in their respective classes
(I bet the Charr ele is a HOOT)

Check out the upcoming skill adds to both classes
(Ele is Tempest, not sure about Thief?)

Might give your decision more to go on

Have fun!

*edit grammar

Afterthought

Maybe just for Engineers or ?

Might give some vision/colour-range-challenged peeps a chance to explore more

Greetings

My living space gets a ton of sunshine
I either have to wait for Mother Nature to move along before I can play in certain locales OR I would need to invest in some blackout curtains for those times of the day/year the Sun is wayyyyyyy up in the Northern Hemisphere

We have diving goggles for the high dives

How about some nightvision goggles for places like say Flame Temple Tombs vista

Just a random thought from a noob with a peabrain

Gratitude

Many thanks Linken!

Agreed Zalladi
It’s unnecessary once one “discovers” the mouse-over

Now if I could just get someone to help me with that pesky Provernic slice/dice/shake&bake

:D

Greetings
I just answered my own question by “Mousing over” each titled map area
D’oh
(now you know where the “MaGoo” came from)

In the immortal words of Emily Litella…. “Nevermind”

Bnoo out

Greetings

Is there a way to tell “easily” what parts of the map are “incomplete” besides zooming in & dragging the map around?

It would be really helpful if there was a designated area on our hero “tab” that broke down each area i.e. 6/8 POI etc much like what shows up when we are in the lands themselves (top left corner I believe?)

Would help us noobs navigate this vast world easier
(I have to say this game has the best “assists” for finding my way around which usually involves going the exact opposite direction)

Perhaps incorporated into existing Achievements
(if I am not missing something already)

Gratibnoob

Greetings

I wonder how those Mord huskers would have done against ALL
green coloured players

We will meet them again

Greetings

Odd that my first post here got sidetracked with charrnanigans & locked

Please give us noobs a way to practice underwater battle

Gratitude

Everyone’s a skritt stand up

Still, considering the realism applied to all the other critters kinda makes those armadillos stand out like a giant virus

Thanks for the history Zalladi
I hope to see undersea training dummies back at some point (soon)

greetings from a noob
I am having a blast beyond words
While glancing at chat I read comments about underwater gear being under-utilized
It struck me
Were there underwater training dummies?
Google & Youtube came up geoduck i.e. none to be found
I would use them & others may too?

Allow me one nit-pick
Those armadillos would be a lot cooler if they looked more like real armadillos

mmm armadillos

Quaggan say “choo”
