Guild Wars 2

Just finished the entire Diarmid event chain. At each stage the boss is now a champ rather than a legendary difficulty, and the group of 15 players I was with were able to kill it in around 20 seconds. The fight used to be unique and its different attacks were interesting mechanics, but now it barely had any time to do any attacks. If this is supposed to be one of Mordremoth’s generals, I shudder to think how easy the final boss is going to be. The hardest part of the event chain is running the salvage parts, only due to its tedious nature.

I bought the expansion hoping for challenging and difficult content. Easy content isn’t going to hold my attention for very long, and I imagine a lot of players would agree with me. Please bring back the harder difficulty

Video with evidence of the random triggers – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wfBZtvYKTcg

So I’ve seen it triggering randomly for a while now, and I couldn’t find any search results on the official forum or on reddit so I figured I would upload a video in which I could replicate it 100%. I think it’s something to do with the terrain that the character is running on is at a slight angle, however I’ve had it trigger on seemingly flat surfaces – In the vigil keep between the forge and the Asura NPC that stands next to it also seems to trigger it. I took off all my armour and weapons and then refunded all the traits except 30 in Explosives to equip Synaptic Overload, and it keeps randomly triggering.

For those that don’t know, the trait is supposed to trigger whenever you knock down or launch an enemy, with a 20 second cooldown. As you can see, it’s triggering when I just walk around.

Sorry for the low quality, it seemed okay when I quickly edited it.

With the end of the Clockwork Chaos living story, the Crown Pavilion is now closed and you are now unable to spend any Watchwork Sprockets earned. However, the invasions are still happening and the Watchwork Sprockets are still dropping. What can we do with them? With previous content updates such as Dragon Bash and Zephyr Sanctum, you are still able to spend the unique event drops such as Zhaitaffy and Fortune Scraps on the unique skins and whatnot that were introduced into the game with those living story events.

Are we going to have to wait for the next time the Crown Pavilion is open to spend the Watchwork Sprockets on the unique weapon skins and recipes? I personally would like to be able to spend them as they are taking up space in my bank and I forgot to purchase the unique recipes which I can no longer purchase.

Was it intentional for us to no longer be able to spend them, or will they be added like the fortune scraps to the list of items that the Black Lion Weapons Specialists offer, or will a unique merchant be added to Lion’s Arch like the Zhaitaffy merchant near the Laurel Vendor?

Apologies if this has been raised before, but I tried using the search function on the forum and it was not working. Also, if it turns out that I am incorrect and that we are still able to spend the Watchwork Sprockets, I apologise for the post but I have not seen it anywhere in game.

This has also happened to me! I was worried at first that everyone who ever clicked on my character would have access to my personal e-mail address, but it turns out I’m the only one who can see it.
