It really wasn’t that hard to find, with a guide I imagine its even easier...
You need 2 components. 1, the xp (which you have) 2, the mastery point. These can be found on map, or for achievements. Once you have sufficient of both for the line your mastering, you have to open the mastery panel and choose to level it up. This does not happen automatically. Then choose the next item you wish to work on.
If you leave a set of old copper tools in the shared slots, its not even a thing to switch them unless you forget to leave the infinite tools in the bags.
The PVP sub forums may yield better responses.
This is pretty much the only thing. The whole npe didn’t work to nerf key farming, so they finally just came out and did it. After that reward nothing in personal story is time gated.
Well, you can already set comments/nick names so no need for any further organization.
This is not wow is why. Shared nodes wouldn’t be consistent with 200 people skinning the same dead corpse.
My play strategy?

Content drought….
Didn’t you miss forum post in that rotation?
Oh my, the number of thieves I have murdered because I chased their mini down. I thought this was a feature, not a bug.
I miss the days of tabletop gaming. I cant imagine devs keeping content constantly fresh like a gm in a good table top game can. I think some games have tried different things in the past, but the bottom line is cost vs reward. So they do what makes money, after all thats how you stay in business. Maybe gw team should release a d20 based set of books.
Did you ever consider the possibility that anet wants to fill our bags with crap. Then we can buy more bags slots for gems and they can make more money. Now if you maxed your bag slots already, then this is not an issue any more.
join lots of guilds and sump them in the treasury.
Char don’t come from eggs, should we give them breast too?
If you never logged out and sat there 24/7 and only did that fight, then perhaps it could.... but normally you won’t see dr.
I would suggest you check the appropriate sub class forums for this. I imagine your responses would be more along the lines of what you expect.
Well there is auto loot, not doing enough dps, but the dr is not a thing. Chances are you can’t loot the the chest because you already did it previously in the same period, or auto looted.
No, at level 80 they give a spirit shard. Just reed the mouse over description......
Joining multiple guilds only joins you to multiple guilds. This in fact is not the same as the suggestion, because all members could be linked. This would be a great way to get pvp/wvw/pve only guilds with blended talents who could help each other and benefit from the support of game modes they don’t like.
There is a considerable number of guilds that include 3 - 5 people or 15 - 20 people. No one would give up their guild identities, but an alliance could prevent that, while making a stronger structure for the little guys. Definitely an idea worth some research time for anet.
Well they are not common drops, but they are drops. Keep searching. After collecting all the chak eggs to get my mini gerent, they better not change this.
And the complete feeling of escaping your work is gone if you go home to play gw2 as one of the dev’s.
I might also make the suggestion of a second account to hold a spot. I am not sure on f2p accounts and joining guilds, but I have 2 accounts to make sure nothing like that happens to my personal guild.
Well if you could food buff speed, it might free up certain traits in classes that you build around that for. Or you could add in a condi cleanse or something vs the speed signet.
from patch notes:
"World vs. World
Disabled the Desert Borderlands “Into the Oasis” meta-event due to the performance impact it was having on the rest of the map.
The associated guild missions for this event have also been disabled. If your guild rolled an easy, medium, or hard oasis mission this week, it will be rerolled."
I far suspect more people are affected by not being able to WvW without the lag than your 7 people in the guild not being able to do one type of mission. Before we started recruiting, we were getting plenty of favor with 4 - 5 people to keep up with the contributions. I don’t see this as a problem. PvE guild missions are mostly soloable.
Secondly I see many LFG’s for help with guild missions. So either you can pug for your missions, or recruit more to build your guild back up. Small guilds who want to stay small, can’t use that as an excuse for having it rougher than larger guilds with more contributors.
Maybe anet should have a gem store option, where you can pay to disable it for x hours. Then we would see who really had a problem with it.
Before the days of salvaging rings, some of us had no choice but to vendor them due to the excess. I recommend if you don’t have a lot, hold on to it and maybe use it on another character later. If you get to the point of needing stabilizing matrix then you’ll have to to break down then, vs thinking I wish I had that for this other toon now.
The only way to get celestial is in certain gear where you can pick your stats. The glorious armor rewards from the pvp track I believe have celestial available. Other than that, you must craft insignias/inscriptions because they are account bound. You can also get lucky on your ascended drops and grab celestial.
the fact that this hasnt been enabled makes me think that ncsoft has a hand in the gold selling business. makes sense from a business perspective.
They openly have a hand… its called the gem shop.
Are you all sure that’s a -25% and not Food: 25% Movement speed?
Yea, a lighting box or green screen so to speak would be nice for this feature too. Or even just a way to capture only the character model and not the other layers in the background. The head lock feature would be needed, and perhaps tweaks to the camera settings to allow for better shots.
Wonderful idea I could do alot with, but I wouldn’t count on this.
1 no I have not
2 I have 10 80’s + bank/break down toons and a spreadsheet to organize.
3 I do want to see anet stay in business
4 I have no problem swapping toons, been doing it for years WvW is better than any other crating corner you could pay for and is free
5 see this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Have-you-ever-deleted-an-80/first#post6032526
I don’t know how to say it other than its to big of a change. It is a pain to spend money to turn the stack of food into a tray recipie at the forge, get excited and use it. Then you realize, "Crap, that wasn’t my cook!!" I have done that before once... I find the idea of account bound recipes wonderful and improvement on the current system. There are other small changes I would like to see, like default collapsed recipe list and expand to what your needing. There are others people have mentioned that are tiny/small/not so hard imo to implement.
When I craft something big, I still have to jump round from toon to toon collecting stuff, swap guilds to get to my personal guild bank. Run here and there to get a missing item on the tp. It’s not like I would benefit that much from crafting from one toon. Your suggestion of making them account bound crafting professions would be a fix, but that’s more like using a bazooka to kill a wasp. I think it’s much more than what is needed.
Well, I think you need to find the right guild. There are those like you describe, and then there is ones like SOR. We have no rep requirement, no attendance requirement. If we are doing something, and you are doing something else so be it. If you don’t feel like running guild missions with us, then don’t. We are casual and we have picked up enough numbers to start raiding. We have 2 real rules, inactive for 4 months, you get booted (but are always welcome to come back), and if you are running with us, rep so we (and others) can see the guild tag. I dare say a lot of us are super casual or solo players, that can work together when needed. We have fun and that’s all you need to find in a guild. We will see how raiding goes. I have run the other type of guild in WoW... to much of a stressful pain in my kitten to do that again.
Also note, you cant do your dailies, You can build turrets and make it into a game, and do other things unlike pvp. A fun note is use mesmer portal to enter arena and you are immune to your guildies damage, but can kill people entering normally.
Artic,
SoR is a small guild. We have a fractal night. A couple of us are geared for high level fractals. We plan to do a weekly raid night on Friday night’s. We also do guild missions on wen nights. You are welcome to join us as we have no rep requirements. We are mostly active during NA prime. If you would like more information send me a whisper in game later when I am able to jump in.
While SoR does not need to get a guild hall, I can ask a few of our members if they would be interested in helping. I just need info on what time you plan to do the take over, so I can recruit a few bodies.
There is a collection for collecting the daily page and you can save that to a journal. If I recall, all the questions are based off those journals.
I would take this a step further and say crafting professions should be account bound. This would solve the same problem and it would remove the penalty for deleting a character. Currently, if you delete a character that has a crafting profession…then you lose that crafting profession too.
I disagree with account bound crafting. This would make a gem store crafting license obsolete. It would also significantly change the mechanic, as you stated, the reason for not deleting a toon. The account bound recipes would fall more to the QoL improvement and potentially cut down support issues where some one waste a recipie on the wrong toon and puts in a trouble ticket.
There was a similar thread about sunrise a few days back. Lets not have the same arguments all over! I like my bolt and don’t want it to change.
I deleted a lev 80 rev. I find the class utterly a waste of space. I am going to delete this human necro too, cant stand the comments and the bad voicing. To be fair, I have so many stacks of tombs of knowledge, I can delete and replace with out any problems. I am also not the type to get attached to a toon.
Just make sure, break down/vendor trash anything soul bound. Don’t forget to move things like mining tools, bags and ascended gear to bank for later use. If you have exotic armor use BL kits and you might salvage runes if they are worth money.
Well, its one thing to choose not to play together, but who gets to decide the label on the account as casual or hardcore. Who decides the definition of hardcore for that matter. And how do you convince the hardcore, they need to be handicapped, so others can enjoy the game a bit more.
Even if you don’t have hot, your still downloading the same things.
By definition hard mode is not for casuals.... It can not be called a casual game if all contents isn’t for every one. Other wise its a casual game with a band aide (hard mode) for a few people who brought together a large enough voice to be heard by developers. This just pushes it away from casual then.
Even in Mario cart, if a casual and hard core try to play together... then one of them isn’t in their element.
So no I still don’t see a good example proving they can co-exist in a game.
Any time you have to build a team of 10 vs a team of 5 its going to be harder.... by definition. However, there is nothing stopping people, unless they just want a prebuilt group to magically fall in their laps. It may take longer and be harder to figure out, but that’s what the content was meant to be. Raids are not a free loot source like dungeons were, and I think that’s the disappointment some people may have from raids. There certainly is nothing stopping any player in this game from grabbing 9 other people and doing a raid.
Can casual and hardcore actually truly exist in the same game... I don’t think so. No matter what you do it’s one or the other with band aids that only cause problems.
I agree, I would loved to see an account unlock on recipes. It could be a little tricky when unlocking something that could be multiple professions. Like new runes, and which profession it unlocks for (or all?) I agree its frustrating to use a recipe on the wrong toon.
There is more xp gain, just start a new toon.
This was addressed in ama, but I am to lazy to go find it. Basically their assumptions, was in the past test servers didn’t reflect the actual server due to different motives for being there. Also GW2 is very story driven and test servers wouldn’t work out because it would be to much of a reveal.
They did mention maybe using the isolated sandbox mechanic like they did for previous betas more.
This has come up time and again. I feel many people would enjoy this (my self included.) I don’t think we will ever see it happen though.
To my knowledge, and I am probably wrong on this. They only ever made the numbers public knowledge once. And since then only vague references, and people fighting over the meaning of quarterly earning reports.
Because the people designing the gliders and outfits are modeler’s. Doesn’t make sense to me to let them balance the game.... Besides the fact that balanced is an opinion, and more than likely, will never be agreed upon anyways.
