Guild Wars 2

Keep getting stuck when loading. This last time in Kessex Hills, when exiting story instance just 3 minutes ago. This has been going on and off now for a week, and is very disrupting. Both my mains are now locked out for some reason.

Is anything done? Just a “we’re on it” will help assuage the “despair” of not being able to play.

Manuhell.2759:

Well, having those horns “attached” to the head would be better. They don’t make much sense as now, imho.

That was my main reason for not bothering at all once I found out. Sure it could be hard to get a nice fit with all the hairstyles and helmets and what-not, but things needs to make sense. A non-radiant halo and floating horns that are not embedded in the forehead… I dunno, it does not make much sense to me.

I can understand if this was rushed through (which it looks to me) to get the job done, but I would rather they spend more time making things like this than trying to meet a deadline.

ShiningSquirrel.3751:

I thought they where potions? Don’t all potions behave that way?

The buff potions I use never fizzle off while zoning, and works in all instances whatsoever.

This is still a flair item, even if it is a triggered one. If it was advertised as a hovering dulll golden ring, then I would have no problem with how it looks, even if it is placed a bit iffy. But they specifically called it a halo.

Taygus.4571:

Backward Sass.6791:

The constant need to reapply the halo/horns effect is very annoying.

So, it’s just like mini’s then? Not even good enough as a cosmetic >.<’

Surely anet can come up with an “always use” option or something… … less and less interested in this, think I’ll use my heirlooms on bags

Yeah, I see no point in the heirlooms besides using them for bags.

Going that far would be bad of course. I would not want to play if everybody ran around with a glaring sun above their heads, and I doubt anyone would use them if it were so.

The radiance from the Dwayna wings however is much more what I was thinking.

I am not a big fan of flair items, but if you are going to provide something, then at least the visual should be unobstructed. Besides, calling it a halo is a bit daft. That thing is no glorious circle of light, it is more a dull golden ring. Where is the vibrant shine like the Wings of Dwayna has?

And it pops off when zoning? Makes no sense, man, makes no sense at all.

A friend of mine has a theory, that the lack of people in a zone will reset resource nodes (exception being static ones). Sounds plausible, since the kitten Soutsun nodes keep moving about.

And I use orrmaps.com as a resource-mapping tool. Been using it for months now, easy to use and can find all maps for a server. Needs a collab function though..
