Guild Wars 2

It’s on the ‘’cliff’ exactly next to the Outcast Waypoint. The wolf appears from time to time, but is not always there.

Screenie attached. Recently began playing as a Norn and while just randomly jumping around I saw the Spirit of Wolf hanging out on a cliff. Is this old news or have I found something cool here? :o

Well not everyone is. Some run around in clothed sheets with a big wooden stick in their hands. I mean, staff build elementalists must get pretty lazy just standing there, waving with their staff.

It did ^^ And I will ,thanks both.

Would you also like to see more chubby/fat body types ingame? We cannot all be big and muscular

Hi! I love making outfits and know most skins ingame, but one has been troubling me.
I want to be a fat jolly friar. Got any idea for costume and dye? :O

Thanks!!:D

I lost my Witch broom but I still have rest of the outfit. Is there anyway to get it back?

We got sheets for Harp and Flute. Could some helpful soul contribute with tabs for the lute instrument?

Personal request would be ‘’ Oakvale ’’ from the videogame Fable.

Best regards

Macplayer at the current until I can afford a PC in a couple of months. But I do wish to switch some ingame music out since I’ve basically played the game since testing and is in GRAVE need of something fresh! Love the GW2 soundtracks but y’all know.

So how do I switch ingame music?

> Player with the house stands around looking at his beds and pictures or whatever, then what?

This is how player housing ends up pretty much 100% of the time. It’s omg something we all want and is amazing. But a) you don’t care about looking at other people’s houses, or if you do, you do it once then stop caring and b) you design your house, stand in it, look around, then shrug your shoulders and leave.

It’s a lot of time and money developing a feature that sounds great on paper but quickly becomes boring in implementation. You will have fun with your house for about as long as a typical LS event. How many people do you think care about what style chair or table they have, will spend money or gold on exclusive decorations, or will seek out content that rewards decorations for a house that no one sees but you unless you beg them to come check out your awesome house that they could care less about.

Maybe I’m not in the majority here, but if most players are like me, they will see housing as merely a novelty that will rarely be utilized to the extent the proponents of housing want to see.

We can wait to see how popular WSO’s player housing is. My guess is it will be praised for being amazing and then find out that no one really cares about it after the novelty wears off.

I appreciate the time you spent writing your replies! However, I must disagree. I’ve played several MMO’s such as: SWG, Runescape, LOTRO and so on, and people still loves these features of the game. Not everyone of course, but a big bunch! It’s as lots of us can agree – not the most important feature, but important nevertheless. But I do understand your point of view, and I agree that it’s defiantly not the biggest priority right now.

@ CookieNoodle

You just want to walk around with a pimp cane and smoke a pipe, don’t you? Thats the real reason for all of this!

Schh! No one may know my true intentions!
BTW – we also need a big purple hat and a coat!

This post is more for further use, when the team has more time to work on these kinds of things, see my point’?

Oh, I wasn’t trying to be confrontational. I just wanted to share my opinion on the matter. I can see where some people would enjoy it for RP and what not. I just don’t think player housing has longterm value. I feel the same way about SAB. It is very popular for a limited time but it isn’t really GW2. While I hope they do bring it back at some point for the people that enjoy it and make it permanent, I don’t care to see resources dedicated to it.

Well, it’s best as a long term thing! But it’s great that you share your views and the opinion on the matter- I mean this is a community afterall!

I love the idea of crafting furniture and such! It brings the homelovers much more work to work with! Great idea for those who is also done with most parts of the game!

This post is more for further use, when the team has more time to work on these kinds of things, see my point’?

Completely understand your point! I did mean that a different team would work on this – not the ones already busy with things that indeed needs to be added desperatly.

I just added a huge post of things I believe that the game needs – that would benefit gamers and ANET alike. If this is in the wrong part of the forum (suggestions does not exists anymore) then please just move the post.

Housing

Five houses for each race ( duh ) -
General
1. Standard house ( two rooms )
2. Deluxe house ( four rooms )
3. Exclusive house ( six rooms and a wine cellar )
4. Extra room = 500 gems
Each step upwards will also add a bigger garden

Housing Broker
Sells regular furniture such as chairs, beds and paintings
Sells gardening seeds for maple trees, snow trees, sylvari light trees and so on

Garden
Standard housing spot includes 4 gathering spots
1 spot = 4 squares
In gathering spots – you may grow your own seeds that you buy from the furnisher broker; grow your own trees and plants! – Exclusive seeds may be bougt in BL store

Gem Store
So that Anet can make big bucks out of this:
Exclusive furniture such as awesome beds and so on.
Exclusive plants and trees
Butlers and maids/golems in your house – bringing you tea! Your personal Alfred!

My personal view on the houses:

DR – Regular Krytan looking house/Regular medieval type human house
The Grove – Pod that it being lifted up by big roots – hop into a pod hanger to access
Rata Sum – Big asuran like architecture square house with those wonderful fish windows. Long sentence ^. The house hovers like Rata Sum and is accessible by walking up a hovering bridge/ladder
Outside Hoelbraak – Typical norn house in the woods

Someone add charr house? XD

Gem store items

Cane: Tree types
Wooden stick : looks like Yodas cane for the hermits out there
Regular stick : Like a regular old mans stick
Elegant stick : For the noblemen out there
Asuran Techy stick : Like a regular stick but a bit more techy
Groovy stick : It’s not groovy but it’s from the grove. Roots bind around it
All sticks share the same costume brawl skill:
1: BASH
2: Spin the cane
walking with the cane leaves you out of combat and adds another walking animation, like the broom and other toys does.

Pipe
Might be an issue because you’d have to add the ‘’ contains tobacco ’’ disclaimer but oh well.

Regular pipe – removes combat skills
Skills added:
1. Breathe out smoke
2: Smoke ring
3: Smoke dragon
4: Smoke triangle
5: Smoke ship ( inspiration from Gandalf )

Sorry for big post.

Remember Southsun Survival…? Awesome living story event. I remember going on for 2-4 days trying to get my fervid cleanser with huge lag from my computer. Now it’s gone.. I believe I accidently deleted a character with it ( my bad ) and now I wonder if there is ANY way of getting it back. I mean, it’s not a sellable item and I do have my achievements to prove that I earned it. I just really adored that skin and I cannot afford a desert rose. What do you guys think? Can I send a ticket about this or something?

While I love the living story, I’d rather have an expansion.

• More possibility to add new races with the new expansion story
• New classes are an easier possibility
• Bigger things added at once – like a huge map/even country
• A new and bigger story – chance for lvl 80s to have more fun
• Easier for ANET to add big updates that they normally cannot add in a patch, like housing, big areas, more endgame content, weapons and armor and most importantly – new big stories.
• Good chance for Cantha and Elona
• biggest reason of all: We have 5 more dragons to kill – living story will just slow the process down. Adding an expansion release will add a new personal story where you can continue your adventure like you first did.

Housing is awesome! I could imagine thousand of ways they could implent it without any issues. They should add portals to a ‘’ home world instance ’’ – a big chunk of each racial area where you can place your own house inbetween other players houses.

And you can pick between the following:
Human houses – Shaemoor/DR
Sylvari Houses – The Grove
Asuran houses – Inside of Rata Sum
Charr houses – Black Citadel?
Norn houses – either in Hoelbrak or somewhere outside
AND FINALLY – Lions Arch themed houses – which are more neutral towards those players that do not want a racial looking house and area.

I mean, this idea could be a great thing for ANET too. Not only will they give more features to ALL of their players, including lvl 80s. But they could earn a big chunk of cash on it too.

Lost the witch broom due to idiocy. Deleted a character wearing it when I was very tired and now it’s gone :/ But now with the new wardrobe there might be a chance to recieve it, perhaps. I mean, I have the full witch outfit… Any of you guys had a similar accident?

Just wanna add it here. If ANET gave us the ability to add a small ‘’ IC ’’ icon next to our name, lots of problems will be solved. They could add it so that if we had the IC icon activated – we would automatically be placed in the same map as others who has the icon active. This way we would have small RP maps filled with IC-active players. Which would actually be an upgrade for us RPers.

Yeah we’ve been asking for an RP-related tag that we can toggle since the Megaservers were first announced. Unfortunately the placement algorithms that they currently have aren’t even working properly. The likelihood that they’ll implement something like that, especially anytime in the near future, is becoming lower and lower.

A shame. We should keep the concept open and active until ANET listens.

go to the end to read the solution
Don’t worry, this is no thread in which I’m complaining to ANET without a solution. This is the opposite, this is the solution to a problem. For a long time I’ve always felt as a heavy RP-er myself that we’re being neglected. There’s barely anything we’re given. We had townclothes and outfits ( brilliant idea making outfits combat-able btw!!! ) but it just doesn’t feel enough. The rper community might be a minority but we’re still a big part of the community, and many players like me, mainly play the game for it’s great lore and great community itself. So please ANET, make the roleplayers stick out a little more, so that our RP can get easier. Because most of us just wanna enjoy this game and beautiful lore up close because we really love the artwork you’ve created.

The solution is easy! It’s not a big RP server – it’s a RP marker.

Rp marking:
This is a bit difficult because having a special marker can be abused by others. I remember in LOTRO when you were able to type in a command ( /roleplayer ) and make your name white, so that everyone knew who was in IC or OOC. Surpisingly, not that many abused it. But that’s ONE con. The PRO is actually quite attracting.
PROS:
With a RP marker we don’t need the hussle of creating a whole server but the RP community will still be satisfied. Example of this would be:
Type in the command /IC and a marker next to your name saying (IC) shows up.
Type in the command /OOC and the marker disappears.

It’s not flashy and will therefore not be abused as much. And it’s easier for us roleplayers to spot eachother, which we want.
So ANET, please don’t pat our shoulders – make something great to our community! The solutions are not that difficult to add and it would do a great difference to a big part of this gaming community.

ALSO – if we have an IC marker ingame – we could add this to the Megaserver system. This would actually fix a problem we roleplayers been having. Everyone with the IC marker active would most likely end up within the same area – so that if you wanna roleplay with others, you would end up with the other active roleplayers. This would be like a miniature RP server – but with NO hussle!

Consider it. I accept feedback.

Have a nice day, Elandri.

But what if Grenth is in his realm? We cannot enter it, but perhaps that’s because Grenth doesn’t WANT us to enter it. Then it’s just logical to assume that the gods are still in their own realms, just avoiding contact with us. If we then managed to enter his realm, we might manage to actually find the lost god.

They’ve always been here, especially at Godslost Swamp But as the title and the name says, they lead to the underworld. So as we all know, the six gods mysteriously vanished. And as we all also know, Grenth is the keeper of the underworld. So what happens if one where to enter a portal to this place? Why does portals keep opening up?

Please answer to this or atleast discuss.

This wardrobe system is AWESOMEEEE!!!!!!!!
Seriously though, running around in combat wearing a cool outfit is just a dream, so thank you ANET. And yes, people complain – but people ALWAYS complain about things. I’m glad, I like this update – I’ve liked this game since testing period ( which is quite unusual since I’ve never been able to enjoy a game for more than 3 months before ). So thank you ANET for this great game and great update!

Thanks alot, all of you!
5 stars and cookies!

Hi!
I’m just wondering if some kind player may answer a question I have:

If I buy the original game – prohecies(spelling); will I then recieve 3 HoM points by simply linking the accounts?

Thanks!
/ cookie

I used to have an account at GW1 but my email has been removed and I forgot the password. I still have the serial codes so is there anyway for me to recieve my rewards.

Let’s face it! Scythes are awesome!

Scythe:
Damage 3 enemies at once
Not much dmg but more dmg on many

Possible proffessions:
Guardian, Warrior, Ranger and Necromancer?
Or do any of you have another idea?

Let me know! Which skills would you see with a scythe?

Following weapons I’d like to see:
Scythes
Aoe dmg ( hitting several enemies at once )
Sweeping attacks

Battlestaves ( more melee/magic abilities )
Powerful bashing attacks
Directed dmg

Whips( like chains and such )
Extremely quick attacks
Aoe dmg
Following Armor:
More robe like armor for heavy armor, mixing it good
More hoods for medium and heavy
Maybe some nice effects to armor?

I believe that we should envelop more into the dragons and the old lore of GW1 within the next living story. Could we vote for it, as a community? I know I’m not the only one that’s really, really interested in Elona, Cantha, Wizards Towers and so much more! There’s so much to explore!

Perhaps… :/
I just hope that they will add Cantha and Elona. Heard rumors of them NOT adding Cantha!

Don’t get me wrong. I LOVE Guild Wars 2 and I’m hooked and aware that it is a new game. But I miss Elona, I miss Cantha. I miss all of the good old lore with GW1. It’s like we’ve slowly drifted off the old lore from GW1. What happened to the Gods? What happened with Elona and Cantha, we want to visit it. Am I the only one feeling like this? And I mean absolutely no offense to ANET, honestly, it’s still a great game. It’s just that I really think it’s time to wrap up the old stories again and mix it a bit more with the new ones.

Been having this problem aswell :C

No, I believe you’ll fit perfectly! The guild is still growing so we wont RP yet, but I’d love to invite you!

So the human gods.
DON’T LEAVE YET, LET ME FINISH!
Shame on you for trying to leave!

Anyways. The human gods. What do we know? There was six of them.
Six gods with six different features.

The concept is easy. A guild worshipping the gods.
But it’s not THAT easy.

Here’s the idea:

Purpose:

• To create a nice and living RP guild where WE create the story.
• To defeat the evil champions of the dragons in the gods name.
• To defend Kryta
• To learn and teach
• To have FUN
  Summary: We want to have fun, a free roleplay where any human is accepted. A nice and comferable atmosphere with nice people.
  IC wise: Our job is to defeat the dragons and their champions. The gods have disappeared, but they have not forsaken us. Our duty is to fight the evils, like the gods want us to, and become the proper masters of Tyria, once more. To do this, we must train and practice with the powers of the gods. We must learn from their power. The fire and battle prowess of Balthazaar, the calm yet wild of Melandru, the godness and leadership of Dwayna, The beauty and grace of Lyssa, the justice and truth of Kormir and finally the cold grasp of Grenth. With these abilities and traits, we can overcome anything! No dragon will be in our way. So join the battle, learn with us, teach with us. Be a champion of the gods today!

Ranks:
There will be several ranks, all divided in several ’’houses’’. There are one house for one god. Example:
House of Grenth which has followers, leader and so on.
Choosing your house would be a very serious choice and should fit your own characters personality and traits.
Example: ‘’ My character Stonestick is a lover of fire and war ’’. Perhaps he fits perfectly with Balthazaar and his followers?

Abilities:
NO, there wont be any overpowered people. But YES, the followers of each house can be taught different abilities and fightstyles similar to those of it’s god. Example: Followers of Dwayna might be taught regular healing abilities or air magic ( if not air magic then perhaps swiftness in combat ). So it’s no ‘’ overpowering ’’ abilities, merely cosmetics for the roleplay so that each house can be unique and so that every class can join any house.

Classes:
As above, there is no class requirements for each house. A necromancer can still be a war crazed psycho ( sorry baltys ) and a ranger can still be a natural and empathic healer. There’s no limits.

WHAT kind of RP?
There is three different kinds of events that will happen in this guild ( if created ):
Training/teaching:
Each leader of each house will teach the other students of the house different fightstyles and such.
Example: ‘’ On monday will the followers of Melandru learn nature magic/how to block attacks ’’.
We want warriors in this guild, to defeat our enemies.

Missions:
Evil doings is everywhere. Nightmare, dragons, bandits etc.
Your job is to go out there, and defeat these evils. With the traits of your own house, you can do anything.

Festivities:
Having fun, partying, drinking, costume parties and EVERYTHING!
Every warrior and student needs to have a drink once in a while, it’s good old jolly fun!
AND it breaks you from those harsh battle memories.

And that’s it so far. Feel free to add ideas or to advise for any changes!
And if you’re interested, then write and I’ll make sure to remember you!
Any questions, was I unclear? Then ask! :d
Have a good day!

Trying to buy gems – keep getting the:
‘’ error ’’- ‘’ parse ’’
type: ‘’ ordermodel:error’’

What a beautiful message :C

KEFIKHEDSGFIKESHFES IT WORKED!
FOR SEVERAL MONTHS!
I’ve updated my system and all but you fixed it!
Thank you!

edit
I can open the launcher but it stucks and I an error message, then it closes :C

I tried but it’s not there :C I don’t think that it’s even downloaded enough to have a proper folder in my computer :S

How? I cannot use it? :C I have Snow Leopard and it stopped working ages ago! Waah ;C

For a couple of months I haven’t been able to start the client. I tried to download and install the game, several times. Over and over. But it’s always the same result:
It downloads and as I try to start the client, nothing happens. The GW2 program still runs and has to be ‘’ force quit ’’ to stop but there’s no screen or anything. I was able to play perfectly fine before, please help!

Easy explanation of topic: I want, and I know that alot of us want to explore more upon the mysterious story of Isgarren and Gardenhoff! While Scarlet and her story is truly great, everyone needs a break once or twice and try something fresh for a while.

The story of Isgarren:
So in GW2 there is a village called Gardenhoff, it would seem to be a completely normal town but there’s several things that’s off about it. The town is packed with elementals that helps the villagers with everything, from daily chores to entertaining. These elementals are sent down to them from a huge floating castle by the horizon ( which you can see, it’s HUGE ). Most villagers does not seem disturbed by this, they’re actually the opposite. They love it. And they all seem to give credit to a mysterious man called Isgarren. The man that owns the floating castle. Nothing more is known of this man, except that everyone almost worships him and that every now and then, some commoners are invited to the castle and never, ever, returns.

SIDE NOTE: I also want to remind you or inform you that this tower or castle has actually been here since the first game: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Wizard's_Tower

So how is this NOT something we want to know more about? It would be refreshing and truly intriguing! Cookie-out.

What if the dragons view us other races are mere ants, just in the way of their own plans and their old territory? That would open up a philosophical question.

Rumors told me that there will be no expansion or update where the player can travel to Cantha? Why?!?!?!?!
Honesty, it’s a favoured continent with so much history and mystery by the time of GW2. Players would LOVE to explore this continent, just as they would love exploring Elona. Not only the GW1 players but new ones too, so this strucked me as a big mistake if it is true. Please, add Cantha. We wanna know what happened and how it looks today!

Any nice , friendly, serious and ( not a requirement but would be nice ) popular RP guild in Piken Square looking for another mate to join? Please send name of guild and name in such case!

- Roleplayer in Piken Square

As a level 29 sylvari I’ve always wondered something.. What do you guys think the relation between the centuars and sylvaris might be? The sylvaris are ‘’ spirits ’’ of the nature and Centuars has always struck me to be very ’’earthly’’ if you catch my drift?
I mean, I know the humans and centuars have their feuds but the sylvaris are kinda differnent.

A REALLY SLIGHT SPOILER

And when I did my Sylvari storyline quest for the Order of Whispers the centuars we spoke to seemed to somewhat like us, or atleast accept us, as they called of
‘’ spirits of the nature ’’, almost respecting and not at all hostile. So what do you guys think? Do centuars like and maybe even respect the sylvaris indiffer from the humans and probably the other races ?
