Never had a problem playing GW2 on all but one pc after upgrading to this version of Windows 10. But I have been told that the DPI scaling settings may need to be adjusted.
I did it the other day no issue. On blackgate server. Try guesting to another server.
This generally doesn’t work anymore since the Megaserver system was put in place; you need to have either a map reset or close out (e.g. like a server/game update or forced map closure due to a decreased player population).
Usually, what some players have known to do for issues like this is use the LFG tool to ask for a ferry to “clean” or unbugged map. But still – this bug should be fixed.
In the chat window, type “/bonus” to get your free weapons. Opps, scratch that – wrong game. :-)
Last patch update seemed to have made the lighting (adaptation) worst – it’s more noticeable in bright-light areas, but just standing in front of the LA portal in Gendarran Fields, gives my toon a sickly dark shade.
Running AMD Radeon HD 7970. Graphic settings on high/Ultra; 4K monitor. Postprocessing set to low (even high) – toggling light adaptation sees to have the only effect.
Attuning an ascended ring before removing the very expensive omni infusions from it first – this was before they converted those old omni infusion to what we have now. Lost about 295 Gold worth of omni infusions that day. To make matters worst, I did the same mistake 2 days later.
More common mistakes I made were buying stacks of refined T5/T6 ores instead of the raw materials itself – I recall doing that a few time in the past year or so.
For those who do not know it, there are subtle differences between the draw/aura effects of all three GS, as this pic shows. Personally, getting Eternity is worth it, IMO.
I really hate the penalty box, but if it must stay at least make it easier, and even challenging for both the players on the ground and those in the penalty box, to work together to “break out” of the penalty box – say a colour-coded pillar lights up on the ground that must be pressed at the same time as one in the penalty box, that is repeated 3 or more times until the penalty box is unlocked – alternately, the player(s) in the penalty box presses a colour-coded “button” that the ground players must press.
Personally, for the hoping for a title for the 500 Fractal runs achievement, maybe something simple along the lines of “Fractal Runner”.
i’d do that 1k runs if not more and add it a title. 500 is kinda short.
Aye, I must have gotten that 500/500 achievement like 2 years ago. What still “stings” a bit is anet removing ~55 APs from that achievement; earning 15 APs for 500 runs is kinda meaningless. IMO.
Pretty much the same with my Norn guardian, but more noticeable when I committed the total makeover changes, that I noticed my toon had something akin to “beady” eyes (that wasn’t visible in the preview window); I must have wasted 2 more total makeover kits trying to achieve a look that I like – in the end, I just ended up covering the eye area with dark face paint and giving her darker eyes.
This was about 2 years ago, though. Currently, I am somewhat happy with her appearance, but may eventually try changing her look again.

It certainly does look like it illuminates the area around it, but I am more incline to think it’s a combination of boons/traits/aura, around your body that give that impression. But I’ll tell you this— you gotta love that hammer slam! "-)
Kinda interesting build, though WP does point out the flaws with it, that make it less than idea for some (most?) situations.
Hahaha!! You posted just a day before this guy called WoodenPotatoes uploaded this video about Reaper Healing.

Having the same issue on my Mesmer. At the very least, anet should place it in the bug tracker.
https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/231272908-Known-Issue-Tracker
I have noticed this recently that when creating a new toon/using the total makeover kit, the left-right arrow selectors on the physique body section, is a bit flaky, depending on where you place your mouse pointer on the arrows and how fast you click on them the game will “auto select” a physique for you without even clicking on it.
Edit: Since the selection panel is already on the left side, clicking on the right-arrow selector quickly to move the panel to the far right will sometimes “auto select” the bottom right-most physique. Not that there’s anything wrong with it, but I didn’t want my toon running around with that physique.

So I received what I assume is a Guaranteed Wardrobe Unlock from my free BL key/chest. I clicked on it, received no pop up message or notification – so I right-clicked on it and open a “preview” – client crashes to desktop. I log back in, nothing in my inventory nor in mail. No notification of what I unlocked.
Edit: some of my fellow guild members suggest that the unlocks should actual place something in your inventory.

Trying to get “The Sky is Falling” achievement, so replayed this part – get stuck in the floating room with Caithe, running around the room, inside then outside, ground area, etc. Nothing seems to trigger the next part.
Copy/pasted from the other thread…
Got the email on all 4 of my GW2 accounts, including my main one that does have (2 x) gwamm. Like the last time this happen – you just need to log back into your GW1 account, display the gwamm there, then log back into GW2.

As someone who has like 6 Mesmer (from a few accounts) parked up there, at the goggles platform, I do like helping players get this achievement. But there a few easy ways to get it; attached pic is just shows two methods.
So bugged. When you click on her, it looks like some sort of cash banner tries to pop up.
Despite completing several Fractals maps passed my personal Fractal level…I’m still stuck at level 51.
Same; we killed Mayatl the Fierce but no chest spawned and there was no event bobble. Second time, event bobble showed up but no boss.

Not a happy camper; I lost at least 14 hours left on my birthday booster upon entering the Raid instance! :-(
Same — no rewards for PL (At least 4 or 5 members are reporting that so far).
Also Guild Rush (Ghost Wolf Run) seems to be broken for our guild – game suppose to zone our guild members to the same map – it’s not. Guidies are taken to different instances, which already has different timers started (by other guilds). Also, I got kicked to LA after trying to WP from a down state.
29 chars on main account, accounts 2 through 4 have approx 5 to 9 chars each.
I mainly play 3-4 chars on the main account (guardian for dungeon/Fractals/some guild missions, warrior for general pve events/dailies, main mesmer for some guild missions then the odd toon here or there). The main toons perform most of my ascended crafting.
Accounts 2 through 4 are mostly for login rewards and all that ascended time-gated stuff.
Main account has about 12 mesmers parked at various jp/chests. I have moved the rest of the crew to Jaka Itzel Waypoint for daily flax farming.
All chars on main account are level 80s except for 4 mesmers (3 x level 30s, x level 71). those 4 mesmers are named after Glen Cook’s Garrett P.I. books, and are parked in LA for the “new” Trolls Revenge JP.
Nope, have no plans to create more toons unless anet comes out with a new race/profession.
Hammer vanished during the last fight with the Archdiviner – our group were stacking on top of him, got him down to 10%-25% when he dropped the hammer – I didn’t realized I picked up the hammer – I dropped it, picked it up again, dropped it again it vanished – I figured someone else in the group picked it up that second time (we were still stacked on top of him). Nope – Hammer vanished. This all happen in the span of a few seconds.
Quest name: Escort the quaggan emissary to the Kodan camp
NPC Bleepdoop often gets stuck on/under some rock under the water, preventing quest completion.

I popped a celebration booster prior to zoning into Challenger Cliffs (see my early post); this was on my warrior when I got the drop; was using a hammer, slamming those skritt/Mordrem Thrashers (3-4 foes at once). Don’t think the CB helped, though it upped my MF passed 325%. But if you are going to farm for the beta key, I am guessing more AoE damage would increase your chances.

Spent about 1.5-2 hours (in total) on Silverwastes a few days ago — didn’t get anything.
Got the beta drop within moments of zoning into Challenger Cliffs (Dry Top location) during the “Prevent skritt from stealing supplies” event; I think the only foes I killed were 1 or 2 skritt and a Mordrem Vile Thrasher; I think it was the latter that dropped the key.
My human guardian.
A year and a half later….
As others have indicated and tested it myself on one of my secondary accounts — the bug seems to add 39 “max” GW1 titles to your GW2 account.
You just need to get 30 max titles for GWAMM, which is strictly max titles; HoM points are collection of things. IMHO getting GWAMM is a bit harder to get than 50 HoM points.
Edit: just to clarify you can get 50 HoM points and not even get the GWAMM title.
(edited by Dana windfelt.8160)
Some things to keep in mind.
Anet designed the HoM as a showcase to display your hard-earned titles/achievements in GW1 and to transfer (show off) some of those achievements (along with some very nice items) in GW2. So it’s not just GWAMM but other titles and “extra” items that are effected by this bug.
Gaile Gray already indicated on page 3 of this thread that “has been and is being taken care of.”
From a programming prospect (speculating on this) what will likely happen is anet will run a “reconciliation” (or something similar to that) on your linked GW1/GW2 accounts to “sync” it up. Don’t think they can do anything about the extra AP or chest rewards added to your GW2 account, but at least the titles will be “adjusted”.
To put things into prospect regarding the work some people have put into their GW1 titles, the attached pic is my main account: 2 x GWAMM, 50 HOM, 44 “max” titles.

Just came back from a Balth run. There were two commanders (including myself) calling out the Veteran Risen Subjugator locations, including one Thief. Kinda funny the Thief (in character) walked up to a vet sub and pointed “There!”. :-)
…had to share.
Not sure why this thread is resurrected — I have been doing the “Eye of Zhaitan” run 2-3 times nightly for the past month and Temple of Balthzar has been liberated at least once (maybe twice) in the time I have been on that map, daily.
ilr.9675 in his post already listed the strategy for the temple escort, though if anything simply knowing the Veteran Risen Subjugator spawn locations and preparing to interrupting/knocking/killing them quickly enough goes a long way in successfully completing the event.

Assuming it’s not patch related, try the tips in the bug section of the wiki page “Map completion”
Bugs:
- Some players reported that they did not receive the reward when they obtained the world completion achievement. For some, revisiting the Chantry of Secrets resolved the issue. A few were able to work around the issue by revisiting every map on the required list. Another fix is to go through the Asura gate in Lions Arch to Black Citadel. If you encounter this issue and are not able to fix it on your own, you will have to contact ArenaNet support.
- If a character has attained map completion for a zone, and that zone at a later date has new items added, those new items need to be discovered in order to unlock the world completion medal and achievement, but not in order to get the world completion reward chest.
Seems like an odd number of HoM points: 39? Seems like every newly created toon going through tutorial automatically links the account to someone’s gw1 account with that many points.
Do hope anet fixes this; kinda a slap in the face to those people who worked hard in GW1 to get gwamm. I actually have 2 x gwamm and was working on a 3rd when GW2 came out.
Personally, I’d play GW1 more if anet upgraded the graphics…if anything at least increased the resolution on the terrain textures (i.e. higher resolution texture replacements).
That said, I wouldn’t mind if anet GW2 to create historic content of events that happened during or after the events in GW1….similar to the Bonus Mission pack.
Normally its easy to pick out the boss chest from various backgrounds, but it gets tiring fast when the same individual or individuals keep popping Box o’ Fun/Bobblehead Laboratory/or various NPC vendors over boss chests. How hard would it be for the developers to bump/nudge/displace the popped item if it happens to be directly over a boss chest or other item?
Discovered this myself while doing Urban Battlegrounds (Ascalon Fractals); our party wiped about 2 times at the end boss of this Fractals…I decided to “reskill” but found I couldn’t change any of my utility skills — none of us were in combat mode.
