Guild Wars 2

For the howler precursor tier 3, you have to kneel before some shrines. The leopardshadow shrine and the wolfpaw shrine are not working when i kneel before them.

Attuned rings crafting in mystic forge seems to be bugged.
Only 1 of my 4 infused rings showed up in the mystic forge interface (solaria).
When i combined it with the 3 other components i got an ’’atuned’’ ring.
However it got a new (wrong?) name: attuned plague signed .

So it seems there are 2 bugs.

I would like to join the raffle

Yey expansion!

But ehh this thread is really circle-Kitten-erk. I mean common, jeez. :P

I didn’t get a response.

Also: ‘’Thanks for understanding’‘. I often don’t understand their decisions. :P

1. Too much of the same.
Borderlands are the same. They can’t make different maps because that would make it unfair. Would be cool if they gave all borderlands a special make-over, like: one jungle, one volcanic and one ice style.
I also think that wvwvw could use some new mechanics. Something like the orb of power we had in the past?

2. There is no room for tactics.
Lets face it: zerging is the best way. Sure you can try take something with 5 men, but hey whats that? Oh, it’s the enemy zerg.

3. Stacking, zerging
Many players don’t mind stacking and zerging, but a big part of the playerbase (i think a mayority) doesn’t like it.
They lose their individuality in a zerg. They are just one of the zerglings.

4. Difference in player ’’level’’ too big.
There are wvw guilds, zergs, little groups and roamers. Many wvw guilds beat the crap out of enemy zergs (or groups). Many players in zergs dont have time to be in a wvw guild (or just don’t play wvw so much). It’s not fun to be wiped all the time, so they leave wvw.

5. Offensive is best.
Wvw is atm all about attacking castles and getting loot and wxp for it. There is little reward for defending.

6. Match up forum.
-

7. Wvw tournaments take too long.
Many wvw’ers just dont have the energie to continue all the time during a wvw tournament. Anet needs to make the tournaments shorter.

Just what i think.
Sorry for grammer and stuff.

You need to grind for ascended gear (or play REALLY LONG). It gives 5percent more statts and you need it for high lvl FOTM. There is REQUIRED grind. Just not so much.

Yes you need ascended for high level fractals. But you can still see everything from the fractals at lvl 1, and thus you don’t need Ascended to experience any content. And as you said yourself, you can get it, over time, without grinding, and thus it is not forced grind either way.

Yeah 4 years or something? :P

I am not just a casual player, I am frugal. While I’m not actively crafting Ascended Artificer weapons, they are currently available to me, and I’m only 25 Ratings away from Armorsmith.

Yeah, talking about a full gear set here.
Full light ascended armor is atm 500-600 gold. Thats is a lot of gold for a single set.

They have never claimed there would be no grind.
They have claimed there would be no REQUIRED grind. Which is still very much true. You can experience every single piece of content in the game without ever grinding anything.

They have added rather much real content since release, but for some reason people seems to ignore that.
But I suppose Fractals, new dungeon path, Southsun and Edge of the Mists (to name a few) doesn’t count for some reason?

You can’t really blame the game for a bunch of elitists either. It is the players, not the game that creates elitism. And that will happen in every game that require some sort of skill and/or gear.

Living story was nice and it kept the game alive. I hope they will add an option to replay it some day. I think we just need new areas and a few HARD dungeons, to keep us busy. There was enough content last year, just not smart (permanent and hard) content.
——
Actually you can blame the game a bit for it. They could remove the option to see other players their AP.

Would like to get a response.

I found some new material for my theory.
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Beneath_Lion%27s_Arch

Perhaps there are still destroyers beneath LA.

105. Arenanet wants to make a better game by discussing game changes with the community before the changes are being implemented.
They tell us that they will remove glory and how the new reward system will work so we can evaluate it. All to make sure that the new one will rock!

Hello,

I heard that rank points will stay, but that there will be a change.

My question is: Will we earn more rank points or will ranks cost less rank points in the future?

FlamingFoxx.1305:

A couple of things.
The inquest were there because they are part of the Aetherblade alliance – an alliance between pirates and inquest. Scarlet was once a member of the inquest which is likely how she recruited some of them into that alliance.

The Pale Tree is NOT a dragon champion. That theory is ridiculous and has been disproved numerous times on the lore forums.

It’s highly unlikely that Primordius is underneath Lions Arch. He was initially, as aequitas says, underneath the Central Transfer Chamber – if he is no longer there he’s more likely to be where there is a destroyer presence, e.g. near Mount Maelstrom.

Dragon minions are mindless – if she were a minion she would not be able to make a plan to free herself, much less enact that plan. The only instance we have of a minion having it’s corruption removed in Glint – and the Forgotten used magic to do that. Killing a dragon does NOT remove it’s corruption – hence the numerous walking corpses that are still around after Zhaitan’s defeat.

In CoE we see the inquest leader using the dragonenergie. I think the inquest has their own plans.

I said ?champion? because I cant call it something else.
Beside that, it was never proven that it is not a dragon champion.

I know, but we must make some kind of theory, dont we :P

Scarlet is not a minion of a dragon. That is what she is fighting against (the nightmare).
Beside that, Sylvari cannot become corrupted by other dragons! So i think thats strong evidence that they are from the jungle dragon.

I think I know what will happen at the climax of living story season 1.

Observations:
-It all begon with Southsun. The karka attacked LA, what weakend it.
-Flame en Frost. This gave Scarlet the sonic technologie/machinery.
-Again Southsun. Here we saw the consortium. I am almost certain that they are the people who financed Scarlet. How else could she get all that stuff?
-Dragon Bash. The councilman was killed. Scarlet wanted to weaken LA, but this backfired.
-Sky Pirates. These were the ones who killed the councilman. We defeated them in the instance in LA.
Aslo the inquest was there. What was their motif? I think we will hear that over a few years
-Queens Jubilee (and speech). The watchwork guards where made of scarlets steam creatures. Thats why she could take them over.
-Tower of Nightmares. This was a difficult one. We know why the krait did it, but why the Nightmare court? I say it is just for might.
Scarlet got some strong poison from this project. The game tells us that this is to poison LA.
-Fractured. The reactor fractal. This was to find the ’’leylines’’.

This points towards an attack on LA.
But why does she want LA? Well, she doesn’t want it. She wants what is beneath it. The sonic devices are to find something beneath the ground.
The device in LA turned green, this and the trailer point towards an attack on LA.
In Scarlets lair we also saw that she has a gigantic drill.

Most of this was already thought up by others. But they seem to forget a lot of information we got in past.

First off, it will not be an unknown enemy. I can conclude this by looking to Arenanets posts/interviews.
The leylines are described as lines of magic/energie. And what did we learn from Zhaitan? The dragons consume magic/energie. So where will a dragon be? On the leylines ofcourse! And wich dragon is beneath the ground? Primordus.

But what is Scarlets goal?
We know from her diary that she is fighting a darkness/nightmare. Most of you know this is probably the Jungle Dragon. She got herself a lot of knowledge and she studied the nightmare with Omadd’s machine. She found out that there is a Jungle Dragon, from wich the Pale Tree is a ?champion?.
But how does she beat such powerfull thing?

I read from an old blogpost:
“But I reject that call. I reject the notion that that I must choose the Dream or be lost to Nightmare. The forces that push us this way or that can be redirected. They can be set against one another to the detriment of both, and now I know how.”
“I have a great deal of work ahead of me. I don’t know what the world will be when I’m through, but I will very much enjoy finding out. Empires will fall, continents will burn, and when the conflagration is over, I’ll be there to put my stamp on whatever new world this one becomes.”

She attacks Primordus, and because she is a ’’minion’’ of the Jungle Dragon (though she is from the nice Pale Tree), Primordus will attack the Jungle Dragon. Big chaos will be the result, but Scarlet will finally be free.

=====

This is my theory.
Don’t agree? Let me know why!
And if this theory is incorrect, i just hope you had fun reading it.

/ sorry for grammar and stuff

The discussion is about almost all rewards being buy/sell -able.
Most important topic: a legendary
Resulting in grind/farm.
Imo money (gold) is way too dominating in this game.

@john
I would like to see you a bit more open-minded in these threads.
This subforum will never work (productive) if you continue to react this way.

PS
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/bltc/How-to-make-200-600-gold-a-day/first#post3469037

17. It’s a l2p issue
18. I put behind every sentence a lot of dots for cool effect………. You noob…….
19. /15 chars
20. /facepalm
21. I have a twitch-channel, so I know everything. I’m good in playing a class and that means it’s in a good spot (ballance).

The game is active, but the ‘open world’ is almost empty (some exeptions).

Lvling an alt is imo just one big nightmare now. Many players lvl their alts by switching character at the end of a dungeon. That can’t be ’’right’’.

This is a mmorpg, you need other players around you for more fun.
In guild wars 2 there is even a bigger need for this, because of the dynamic event system. There are more active events when there are more players in the area.

Introduce them. Please.
I would call that the biggest ‘’quality of life’’ change ever in this game.

PS: Yes, i know this has been discussed before. I can’t necro that thread because the “search the forums…” function is useless/broken/bugged.

More stat combinations makes balance worse. WvW is an imbalanced cesspool compared to PvP. Dire stats? Enough said. I understand the Amulet & Rings & Earrings system could be decent. In WvW though, the glassy professions are glassier, and the tanky professions are tankier. This is because of WvW’s Amulet & Ring & Earring system as opposed to the PvP Amulet system. I see this as a negative thing for player enjoyment – I’d rather players be forced into at least some slight version of ‘middle ground’ when it comes to character building. 10khp thieves with 2500 power, I just don’t want in my PvP. Not fun to play against or as, imo.

Apart from that, breaking down the differences between PvP and WvW is dangerous, because it would set a precedent for determining what new mechanics would be shared with PvP as well. I think it’s good that PvP is protected..

PvP can’t be subject to new, stronger foods, maintenance oils, OP runesets.. it would be very hurtful.

I understand your view.
But you could also turn it around and say: now there will be (more) ballance for wvw.
The wvw’ers have been asking for good ballance for a long time now.

1. ‘Remove’ the amulets and make gear like in wvw and pve. This will make ballancing a lot easier, i think. (and more builds in spvp)

2. There are too many conditions and boons.
It’s impossible to keep track of whats all going on.
Make conditions stronger and/or longer lasting, but make it so that less skils can inflict them. Also a skill should never inflict more than 1 boon/condition.

Just my ideas, discuss them please!
I don’t say they are THE solution. But they are good to look into.

This is the new legendary staff

I was wondering as a tailor:
Why not make many runes of the undead? Really cheap and its exotic.

they only have to press the ’’imune’’ button to counter that.

It’s impossible to kill a “good” warrior in wvw as an elemantalist.
You can throw yourself a party if you can get 20 percent of his health down.

In spvp you can use alot of your immobelize, knockdown and knockback and your stun. Its hard but possible.
And use your glyph of lesser elementals and glyph of elementals @ the same time.
/serious

Ah common, let him be himself
A thing to argue: will this class be playable for noobs? Not everyone is super experienced.
It’s nice that the class can be mastered and be strong. But i remember when i was new to this game and i entered spvp with staff. And i didn’t want to return after that for 3 months lol :P

Now we are talking.
Are you guys thinking about some focus balance? :P
I mean, that could be a really good weapon for defensive builds.

Sounds cool.
But aren’t you guys testing new builds for all classes? Are you fighting against new random made up builds or existing strong ones?

If this is really going to happen, they have to give all daggers’ skill 1 a 15 percent buff. Or give us more base health. Or give us some good traits in the other traitlines (and not just move them).
We all know something like that will never happen. No d/d anymore. From now on S/d it seems.. Hate that playstyle, but it seems i ‘have’ to (because i love elementalist).

Ps: Focus.. tbh.. i play this game since it launched, and i haven’t touched a focus for 10 months now….

Not this again. The dead horse has been beaten so much there’s nothing left of it!

Speculation does not equal manipulation.

IF (and this is a big IF), you see that there are 35k of an item available for sale. And if you buy 10K of them, causing the price to rise say 30%. and you come and post on the forums about the “sudden rise” in the item on the TP. That is manipulation.

Pump and dump, baby.

Except the prices had already skyrocketed to what it is now BEFORE Vol made this thread. There was no sudden rise due to market manipulation. There was a rise because Ascended armor crafting! And although I can’t speak for Vol, I’m willing to say he still has his stock of Gossamer.

You guys are grasping at desperate straws here. As I said, the horse is disintegrated, you’re gonna break your sticks.

@Valdemas, there is no “t” in Vol’s name, unless you’re doing that on purpose.

I gave numbers, facts.
What is your proof that all of this is speculation? Hmmmmmmm…?

Your “proof” indicates that there was a sudden demand increase and drain to the supply. That is it. Guess what happens when demand increases and supply is drained? No, not manipulation, price increase.

Basic economics.

Now, let’s say the there is a sudden demand increase, supply drain, and then sudden supply replenished along with a huge price increase for absolutely no reason. That’s market manipulation.

Oh, and burden of proof lies with you bub since you’re the one making the accusation.

The amount of fallacies in your posts are amazing, i give you that.

But it is in no way speculation.

Lol guys
1. Dont lie… It was 4s and it raised to 7s
2. The supply was 51k. It changed to 35k. So when you buy 10k of it you YOU changed the price. (Arenanet should do something against this kind of market manipulation.)

They should add some nodes to the game.
Problem solved.

They mentioned it to make a flame&frost fractal and a aetherblade fractal to.
But yeah, perhaps that will take longer

Valefor.3246:

Not sure why you guys are doubting the new legendaries will be out this year… the looking ahead in 2013 blog has been very accurate so far.

- Bi-weekly releases
- Champion boxes
- Dungeon completion changes
- Ascended crafting mats
- Account magic find
- Crafting to 500 (partly)

The only things left in that article not already added are

- Crafting precursors
- New legendaries
- Skill/Trait progression (which is coming on October 15)

2 things left to add (3 including Ascended Armor) and still 4 patches left (2 in November, 2 in December). All this doubt is totally unfounded.

You forgot some:
-2 new fractals
-ascended armor crafting
-spvp reward system

And there is a patch every 2 weeks

Lol these wvw’ers are so childish..

So whats best way of making gold with skillpoints atm?

Aurust.8961:

9. I know

As a very active gold farmer, I can tell you that the best SUSTAINED gold/hour is gathering….. where to gather however and how to do it efficiently is up to you to find out. Currently im at 12-14g/hour sustained. The best part is you dont waste time waiting for parties to form etc.

For a change of pace, put together a pro zerker dungeon group and do COE > SE p1, p3, TA f/f,u and AC p1, p2,p3

These dungeons in particular because of the speed with which u can clear them ~ 15 min a path, and you can use the badges to buy exotic weapons to salvage for inscriptions that sell for 5g+

3 charrs. My main source of gold is gathering atm.

I’m in a pro zerker group. I know the 5-8 gold salvage for inscriptions way (50% chance btw)

Vol.5241:

Dragonar.1342:

Saw your link vol.
Ehhh i have been wearing full magic find since this game launched.. So….

But ok, what activities should i do?

Magic find is only half the equation. The other half is kill rate per hour. You need to kill enough mobs to utilize MF well.

For example, lets say you wore MF while killing Sparks near Dwayna, versus wearing MF during event chains like shelt/pen (pre nerf). You would get way more loot doing shelt/pen and way more use out of MF due to the significantly higher kill rate per hour.

The current ways of making money that I know of now are:
-speed clearing easy dungeons for daily gold
-champ train in FGS/Orr (probably the best method)
-Gathering (especially if you have multiple alts)

I mainly do dungeons, so i believe i utilise it. Have done the scarlet train a lot to.

Hello,

I have played the game for 1700 hours now. I just reached 550 gold. I have enjoyed playing the game and i know that’s the most important. But I see all my friend and, guildies around me getting their legendaries. There is one who has played the game for 1100 hours and has started making his 4th legendary.
I farm dungeons and harvest nodes. But i’m still sooo far away from my 1st legendary…

I’m totally lost.
What am i doing wrong? :/

TheDaiBish.9735:

Dragonar.1342:

Ofc there are different ways that they can implement it.
But how big is the chance? Ascended weapons? goldgoldgold. Ascended armor? Even more gold. Legendaries on the tp? 2000 gold.

You’re right. They may not change it.

But if we look at Ascended, there are mats that you can’t buy, that you have to obtain yourself. The Vision Crystal, for one. This is an example of how a creation process has changed.

Until they actually implement it, we won’t know.

Dragonar.1342:

Gear-Progression:
1: Stronger statts
2: Better looks

As far as I know, gear progression has never been attributed with ‘better looks’, since ‘better’ is subjective. Hell, I’m still using Flame weapons on my Charr.

Arenanet said in the past that progression in gw2 would be looks, not statts.
So yeah

Mirta.5029:

1. Where did you read that?
2. Is there a point? I mean we have ascended trinkets and legendary trinkets would have the same stats as ascended. So would they give like a special effect or something?
