I also would like it to remain a potion so it can work with outfits. The only thing that seems to. Night fury and winters presence don’t seem to. Not sure about auras.
Also the potions do work in WvW. Not sure about PvP.
I was on this map last night. I agree it was more fun running into other havok groups and fighting over camps and such. Way better in my humble opinion than running around with a zerg.
Here is an idea to help promote Guilds. Allow a Guild to build an Aura that maybe grants a pip or two to its active WvW members while they are repping them.
Maybe even allow claimed forts and such to provide an extra pip to the guild claiming it. People would be more apt to protect something that is giving them a boost.
I know there will be other problems l can’t see but hopefully a discussion about this can help.
As long as it doesn’t stop giving us boosts. I enjoy the Karma, speed, Luck and Rejenerative boosts that i get from it.
The buffs are nerfed now and only last a couple minutes, by the time you stack a few of them some have already worn off. It was worth the purchase when they sold it originally but in it’s current form I honestly would return it for refund if given the chance.
Actually as I stated I get about an hours+ worth of boosts from a 1000 candy corns. I just click on it while wandering to keep up the buffs. Sadly I guess my RNG is better than most, so I would prefer to keep it the way it is.
Here is an idea rework it so instead of different buff’s and stuff make it like princess,star and item’s like that so we give it 50 candy corn we can get a ToT bag but limit it to 3 bag’s a day by now everyone should have candy corn node or have been hosted to get them but if they don’t want to do that at least make a candy bucket for our home so we can get trick or treat bag like with the wintersday tree.
As long as it doesn’t stop giving us boosts. I enjoy the Karma, speed, Luck and Rejenerative boosts that i get from it.
The gobbler has worked out pretty well for me. I average about an hour+ on all the boosts with 4 stack of candy corn. And the cost in gold for the candy corn is way less than trying to convert gold to gems to buy the boosters.
As for the time it takes to get to the boosts, I usually just click on it out of habit while i am waiting for a tower to cap or just running around.
But RNG is RNG so your mileage may vary.
edit: re read post and meant 1000 candy corns or 4 stacks.
Then why retract your bid after i retract mine and put it back up after i relist mine. Wouldnt you just leave your bid until you got it. And you mean to tell me this item becomes so sought after only when i place a bid.
So just to clarify. High price on an item is 129 gold. I place bid at 130 gold. Now someone comes and places a bid 130g and 1c. I retract my bid and within an hour there bid is gone and only the 129 high bid remains. So i again place a bid of 130 gold and within an hour there is a bid of 130 g 1c again. So i retract my bid again.
Guess what within an hour there bid is gone and only the 129 gold high bid remains. I did this off and on for two days and always one person higher. Why is that item only in high demand when i bid on it and then one is sold minutes after i retract my bid. But the high bid is always there at 129 G.
It could also be the seller hoping to kitten you off in order to buy the item at high price. I have several times placed a buy order then someone comes in and places it one copper higher. I remove my bid check it in a couple hours their bid is now gone as well.
I then replace my bid and within 30 minutes there is another bid one copper above mine. I withdraw my offer and within an hour theres us removed to. I repeat the process and there is always one higher. This happens on all the high priced items.
Try it sometime and you will get the same results. It is there way of trying to get you to just buy their item.
The problem with making them effects is then they wont work with outfits. As they currently work now with outfits. Having to restart after map change is minor compared to having the one item that can change the appearence of an outfit, no matter how small.
So yes, gtfo with your ranger. It has it’s part, but not in group combat.
Happy to hear that Wvw is doing awesome with player participation that you don’t need us rangers. You need to tell all those complaining that WvW is dead that they are wrong. It is so full of players we can exclude people who want to play and chase them away.
I prefer the title’s you can’t get any more such as emissary of the mad king or hero of lions arch. Those titles are gone and can’t get anymore. You can still get legendary champion an GWAMM.
Okay. That is why I asked. Thanks. I have never played a character with aegis. The boons I use and are familiar with stack and don’t dissappear on hit. Still learning wvw.
Last night in EOTM I came across a player who had aegis up kept to 1M 3W 2D. To me this seems wrong but before I call shenanigans I want to make sure it is not actually possible through game play. I hear stories of players able to stack all sorts of boons for ungodly time.
What I was thinking is that maybe they could make it so these items could be gifted or sold. You could give one to an NPC who gives you back a non account bound version in a container. You could then mail this container off to any other account or put it up for sale on the trading post.
While ANet would lose some money from this for a while (eventually all the excess items will be given away or sold) they will gain good will from people who are currently unhappy with the addition of account bound slots because they own multiple permanent items and with people who would hesitate to buy other items because ANet might do something that reduces the items worth to them.
Another benifit of this is it could help bring down the price of permanent contracts as people sell off there extras. Messing over the price gougers.
If money was a problem then why did you buy extra salvage o matics to begin with. You still only needed one and could just swap it out at the bank.
The original refund for harvesting tools was granted because now you only needed to buy one and swap it out between characters using the bank option where the prior form required you to purchase one for each character and the change made that redundant.
Every once in a great while Anet will release a skin for 2 or 3 tickets. But i have yet to see the fused or aetherized weapons come back since they were removed about a year ago and they were 5 tickets at the time.
Edit: In fact, I would not be surprised in the least if the recent rise in ToT prices is not partially the result of some TP players anticipating a general increase in value of this item as its scarcity increases over the coming months.
^^This right here. Also the bags could drop in the short term due to people buying 20k ToT bags and getting the tonic in the first few thousand opened. Then re selling the rest to recoup some of their costs.
And if anet does release a permanent bat wing tonic recipe, you will see the price of ToT bags drop significantly.
Well updates usually happen on tuesdays but with them giving halloween qn extra day they pushed the usual Tuesday morning update to Wednesday. It was probably a mis communication between marketing and the programmers.
Edit: as for the improvised skins they came in the middle of the month and not at the start of the month as usual and are probably just returning to the normal schedule of releasing new BLTC skins at 4he beginning of the month. To be honest the improvised skins arent that great anyways. Humorous but not humorous to warrant a ticket on.
The bags could go up in price, especially with the maize balm nerf no longer generating surplus tot bags. Also the bags will still contain the weapon skins, minis, and that stupid endless bat tonic everyone wants and currently the ToT bags are the only way to get them.
So take that for what you want but my 2 cents says they could possibaly hit 10 silver a bag.
Nope. They will only need to purchase HOT if they want to access its content. And yes this includes guild halls. If you dont purchase HOT you will still have access to the core game.
Yes you can. I got the 50% mf from the old booster and the boost from the new booster as well. Same with the expierence boosters. Except i wasnt sure how to verify i got both. MF was easy to check as the boosters were activated.
I actually got the selfish potion (horns) when it first came out. I am actually glad that new people get a chance to get this and a chance for me to get a second as I hate switching it between characters.
People are complaining about how hard it is to get and the gold cost. I have no problem with the current costs as it was also 10 gold to get and you needed to log in and run the event for five days to get. You only got 30 heirlooms a day and it took 150 plus 10 gold. So the re introduction of them should be just as hard.
Above is my current power build. I enjoy it with either mobs or large zerg fights. I can easily maintain 25 stacks of might with this build. With the runes of strength my boon duration is 24 and a half seconds. The extra toughness and vitality allow me to walk out into the fray of battle and barrage those trying to build ac’s and those that dont scatter from the barrage definitely break ranks when I rapid fire into them.
Yes I know there are better builds but it works well for me. I would say give it a try before knocking it but I understand the runes are expensive.
Happened to me a lot in EOTM right before a huge zerg fight. Turned down my graphics card from very high detail to high. Now it lags a bit but does not disconnect.
Also an FYI from one ranger to another skill #4 or PBS is truly situational and should not be used against every target. By using it you may inadvertently knock the boss out of melee range for your other party members.
I would think pierce would help. Since you are hitting multiple targets throughout the cooldowns. Not using QZ I have seen it stack an additional 4 to 5 stacks. In a large zerge fight timing my signet cd and pet swaps I can maintain 23 to 25 stacks the entire fight. That combined with bloodlust hits pretty hard. At least for a ranger. I have never seen numbers like those in my combat log prior to the new patch.
