Guild Wars 2

Some constructive criticism from me would be that if this was an event to introduce new players into the game and to give them some rewards to work for you failed. You’ve already addressed the issue that the event at large is a failure and but also the price of the rewards.

10 gold extra for the higher rewards? I didn’t manage to get a decent amount of gold until I got into the 70-80’s and got myself into Silverwastes. You effectively locked every new subscriber out of getting any of the higher rewards even if they managed to get to every event daily and get the 450 blooms they would then have to scrape up the gold to even buy the higher items.

The thing I’ve always loved about GW2 was that someone could start today and still be able to participate in 90% of the game almost immediately. So while this event has an effective level of 18, which isn’t difficult to get to in the least, the impossibility to receive the higher rewards gives the impression that anyone new should just half participate.

Something to consider.

Konig Des Todes.2086:

Having to repeat the missions was something stated would be a side-effect of the re-ordering back when it was announced that they were fixing the order to its original order. Well, the opposite was: that if you were on the formerly-earlier steps then you’d miss the formerly-later steps. But reading between the lines indicates that it was a planned unintentional side-effect.

Guess my main won’t be finishing the main story then. I really don’t feel like re-doing 4 missions. If you have credit for it and it’s clearly already showing up in your sidebar as completed they should just progress through it without you actually having to do it. It’s exactly like being able to do the LW2 missions even if you haven’t done one mission of the Scarlet story except in this case anyone who being forced to do this at least has actually already put in the effort and dealt with any bugs or mishaps that happened their first play through.

Adding to this thread about Living Story issues. I had already completed the 4 story missions that you rearranged and was just waiting to do the ships before finally finishing the story. From what I understand my character (Warden Nightray) should have been pushed forward to Victory or Death but now I’m being directed to re-do these four again: Against the Corruption, Cathedral of Silence, Romke’s Final Voyage & Source of Orr. I’m effectively stuck because I shouldn’t have to redo missions I’ve already completed.

Also they show as LVL 70 Missions still which I believe someone else has already mentioned.

Okay I read the link and it looks like it’s saying that if I’ve completed those prior to them updating it (which I did) then I should have been moved forward to Victory or Death, but I haven’t. It’s sent me back to re-do 4 missions.

edited- commented in that thread as well.

That’s not a bug; that’s how the storyline is meant to go now that it’s been reverted to its original order. You’ll do Against The Corruption, Cathedral of Silence/Romke’s Final Voyage, and then the Source of Orr before getting to Victory of Death. And yes, Victory or Death is bugged right now.

But I’ve already completed all of that. Literally every single one you mentioned I’ve done. I have credit for it. I shouldn’t be required to re-do all the progress I’ve already completed.

Finished the level 80 ‘Ships of the Line’ story mission, the next one should have been ‘Victory or Death’ but it sent me back to an already completed level 70 story mission ‘Against the Corruption’. I’m effectively blocked from continuing the story, I understand now that Victory or Death is bugged too.

Any ETA on when this will be fixed?
