The thing i would really want is 3 extra shared inventory slots. I got a few items I have to keep switching around multiple characters. With these 3 it would be so much better, but gem price went so high that i cannot afford it

What's Missing from Material Storage?

  • Blade shards
  • tattered bat wings
  • reclaimed metal
  • chak eggs
  • agony infusions (at least +1)
  • common scribing materials like sheets of sandpaper
  • lumber cores
  • doubloon, especially the silver ones
  • golden fractal relics
  • tenebrous crystal (and the other one)
  • lesser vision crystals
  • vision crystals
  • petrified wood
  • blood ruby
  • fractal pages

Maybe not for own storage, but a faster way to get rid of raid decorations. A way to store them outside guild halls (or inside the raids) because i find them stacked over all characters i play raids with.

And as last. This would save a lot of slots for a lot of players, tonics… you keep adding more and more of these but nowhere to store them. A new collection tab like minis or finishers would be really nice.

So I mean yes, please get those chak eggs and reclaimed metal plates out of our inventory, but I don’t see why we should put them in the material storage and not the wallet. Unless I missed something you only buy things with them. (Same goes for blood rubies and petrified wood, although those are salvageable so I can somewhat see putting them in the storage)

You need chak eggs and metal plates for a legendary gift, for legendary armor. 5 per legendary armorpiece. Together with auric ingots and gift of the pact. See wiki legendary armor.

Yes, i know this is actually no storage material but starts to be a big problem since Anet keeps adding more and more of them.
Tonics, my bank is stacked with (endless) tonics. I got like a full bank tab of 30 slots filled with tonics, and since you cant really store them i tend to skip collecting future tonics. The best would be something like minis and how you collect them. Plx find a solution for this problem aswell and let me collect more of these awesome tonics in future updates!

Can you please fix spawned items?

There is this item you need in part IV that requires you to kill risen gorillas while carrying a cub. But there are 3 areas where risen gorillas could be and only one of them is working for the collection. Only at Winter Knell Isle seems to work for this part of the achievement.

I started with killing gorillas in south at the jumping puzzle, after i went killing risen gorillas around temple of melandru and all gorillas didnt gave me the collection part i needed while the description just said “kill risen gorilla in cursed shore”

Reward track change on completion

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

Is there a reason that the spvp reward track does change automatically on completion? If I use my reward track potions I sometimes forget to choose back the reward track I really want to have, because I didn’’t noticed I had completed the reward track already.

It would be so nice if you could choose the option "keep this reward track active on completion " this way I wont waste potions anymore on useless tracks.

To be honest Anet is really forcing people to buy HoT while they have the core game. How further we come how less people with core game can do, they also lose things they could do before. That people can’t do everything without expansion is okay. But don’t exclude them from everything.

For example the guild halls and its Arena, it’s okay that they can’t upgrade or decorate it in any way. But not even joining in to fight against or with guild mates? And there is no way anymore that core players get the guild buff, which they could pre HoT. HoT is getting their gold and effort and get less and less back as result.

Mystic Clovers

Ofcourse math is part of this. An item got a specific drop rate, let’s say 1% or 1 in 100.
If you get more than 1 out of 100 you are lucky. If you get less than 1 out of 100 you are unlucky. But at some point like after 300 times and still haven’t got one the chance is lower you still dont get it , or call it “more unlucky” and the chance you will get it will increase. But this still doesn’t say a thing when the item will drop “it’s a chance” and because of RNG = RNG.

Gambler’s Fallacy

That’s why I said the sentence after, because I knew people would react -_- “this still doesn’t say a thing when the item will drop”

To bring it back to the coin. To throw 1 time head (no drop) is easier than throwing 100 times head (no drop) without throwing tail (drop). But each time you throw you still have 50% chance… For a drop chance its the same: 1 out of 100 its more likely you have at least 1 after killing 300, or you are just unlucky. But I don’t say it has to drop very soon because each time you kill it’s 1% drop… It’s not predicting anything it only says if you are a lucky or unlucky at that moment.

How in the hell playing in the toilet has anything to do with making you a skillful player, lol?

Remember when your math teacher said to pay attention you will use this later in life…

Welcome to later in life. Those who understand math use the “toilet” to make lots and lots of money.

The recipe for Mystic Clovers is fixed. No skill involved. They’re Account Bound so no money making there unless you’re selling the pre or legendary. Math has nothing to do with this unless I’m missing something.

For me it is loads of times the opposite of what I need….

  • Need clovers > gets loads of T6 materials
  • Want to get T6 material > gets clovers
  • (frost toolbox , axe/mining pick /sickle) need sickles gets axes
  • need axes > gets sickles
  • No rng but: spamming join in with the thought “Oh i get in any moment”
  • 10 mins later i start to complain “omg I can’t get in” > few clicks further joined in

Why is this world so tough xD

Plx, add an option that allows you to remove only one decoration at a time. It’s really anoying when you try to remove one decoration and at same time the whole area around it.

And plx add a vertical slider and z-axis rotational slider. Snowpiles upside down would be awesome to have.

There was a time GW2 was Casual Friendly

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

I may be too much of an "hardcore’ish’ " achiever but I find this game really casual. I am a PvX player and I can step in any given time in any content of the game. Okay more and more events are behind a timer now but now you know for sure when you can step in.

  • You want to do Auric Basin? Okay come xx:30 to do events (or xx:45 if you only want the meta)
  • Want to do fractals? Up to fractals 20 you dont need any special gear and can even do dailies.
  • Want to do raid? Sure, especially the first boss, you only need exotic gear to kill it.
  • World vs World, can join in any time you like, maybe there is even an open raid to join.
  • Spvp, got leagues and there is a big achieve list you could work on, why not starting with thief?
  • Oh legendaries, lets start with the collection list and open up wiki, or locate the items yourself with the hints.
  • and on and on, Achievement list is big enough. For me at least.

And come on.. a reward could be fun, but there is so much out there you can enjoy. And it’s not about what another player has. It is about what you got yourself. Especially as a casual player you should not fall in a trap about any rewards other players achieved.

“But it’s grindy, it takes so long” So what? You can achieve it. Isn’t it meant to take long? (end-game content), or should Anet give everyone who logs in with the new patch the new legendary skins? If you get bored choose something different from the “TO DO” list there’s plenty on it and come back later.

And to specify “grinding”: Killing the same kind of mobs like thousands of times on a single spot for at least several hours to get 1 or 2 items. (I dont see this in GW2)

Sometimes it may look grindy because people want to compleet a longterm achievement too fast. And what will you do when you compleeted everything, when it only takes a few hours to compleet everything? People will find it boring and asks for more.

(Good old times in old games like Maple Story, “Kill thousand mushrooms to get a small reward and come back tomorrow to do the same again, yay!” )

They don’t want give you key ring or put all the key in wallet. Why? Because of one thing called : " gem purchased " . I have played a lot of MMORPG game and they usually do it , just fill up your inventory with a lot of item and force player buy expansion slot bag . I don’t blame ANET because they’re a company , they must do their business .
However , when i feel uncomfortable with their game , i quit . There’re tons of game out there i want to try , such as : Blade and Soul , Black Desert ….. and upcoming is Lors Ark , Lineage Eternal …

Well I would love to buy more inventory bag slots or bank space. But I already have maxed out the inventory and bank upgrades… And still having problems with full bags and a full bank

Here is my inventory… (just used all of my crow bars though) First bag filled with keys and boxes and salvage kits. And at this moment I cleaned my inventory with all armor salvaged etc. Since shared inventory slots I saved 5 more slots. Most of the times I have to do it with about 10 open slots. I had a really hard time when I was busy with the HOPE legendary collection. At top point I had half of the open slots filled with collection items.

Plx Anet give me something like a Key Chain and a bag/storage for Tonics (I have 30 slots in bank full of tonics….)

Tips for GH Claim?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

We did claimed gilded hollow with 4 people. Start right away, you need some dps, so try to keep the might up. Use things like stability because there are some knockbacks. And focus/target immediatly on the mob that is shielding the ‘Maw’ with all players. If the mobs are dead and that ‘maw’ is about to die, others can already go back to mid when maw is around 5-10% while 1 can stay behind to finish off the maw.

So move quickly, kill the mob that shields the maw immediatly, keep the dps going, kill the maw and move again

Guild Halls - Upgrade tracker / treasury

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

I’ve been upgrading the guild halls with my guild. But everytime when we go out of the guild hall there is no way to see how much we still need or which item you actually had to buy from that certain crafting vendor etc. etc.

Is it possible to see the upgrade list outside the guild halls? (Besides using guides like dulfy)

And besides, sometimes multiple upgrades need the same materials. If you click on the ‘locked’ upgrades you may think you already collected these materials and may think you don’t need them because it says it’s already collected (e.g. Elder wood 20/20). But then in the end some other upgrade was just using it and have to collect these items again which I earlier thought I already had compleeted. Sometimes this can be a bit confusioning, at least to me. Also you can’t donate more of them because you still have to compleet the previous upgrade.

So or make them more gray because you still have to unlock the previous upgrade or dont show them as compleeted, or make it possible to donate these materials already. That would be nice

Reminder from the Guild Halls Team

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

Good day,

The following upgrades will unlock scribing recipes. You must have a guild hall to scribe the schematic and build the item. However, until you get the guild hall you will be able to purchase the items with favor from a Guild Requisitioner found in the Guild Initiative Office.

Guild Catapult will auto unlock the War Room upgrade “Scribing: Guild Catapult”.
Guild Siege Suit will auto unlock the War Room upgrade “Scribing: Guild Siege Golem”.


Have fun, everyone! \o/

Does this mean that we will not be able to get the guild siege we currently have built once hot hits? We have several guild catapults built and building, so should we just leave one built to unlock this upgrade and activate the rest so that we don’t lose any of them?

You wont lose any siege/banners consumables. So you are safe. What you can do this evening take out any siege and queue up a full list of siege before HoT launches, last chance to get guild siege via influence.

I should say keep at least 1 finished siege of each inside the upgrade list to be sure you unlock that specific recipe for scribing.

2. Activate and complete your guild missions before Heart of Thorns launches.

Your guild mission consumables will not be usable in Heart of Thorns as guild missions will no longer need consumables. If you run missions before launch, you will be able to run the missions after launch for guild rewards. For further notes on missions, read Colin’s post on a Handful of HoT Notes

Is it possible to get a refund of influence for guild missions (and maybe other upgrades that will go away)? For some missions we have like 10 available in the upgrade list, quite some influence which we could use for weekly favor. We worked for this and got some gold spent into this, will this be lost?

I don’t see the problem? You can still do the guild missions, if you did it after the reset of this week already you can wait till monday’s reset or the saturday after that. Not a big problem I would gues, actually you won’t miss anything.

It only looks longer because first you do the missions right after reset and now you do it almost in the end of the week if you keep it at the same time.

[Suggestion] WvW achievements

in WvW

Posted by: Fowidner.6930

Fowidner.6930

For Heart of Thorns, we are rebalancing the WvW Lifetime achievement requirements to much more reasonable numbers. At the same time we’ll also be updating many of their associated titles.

  • We are not changing the Realm Avenger (“Ultimate Dominator”) achievement requirements or title, as some players have actually obtained it and it’s a bit of a status symbol.
  • The “Yakslapper” title will remain, but the requirement is being reduced to 2500 yaks.
  • As an example title change: “Ultimate Liberator” will become “Kingmaker”

OKay this sounds interesting but: Give the titles/rewards at like new requirements like 2500kills but let it count further after you got compleeted it, to keep track of how many kills you have a month or 2 further. I got the same with fractals, there is an achievement of do 500 times fractals but afterwards you have no idea how many fractals you have done. Im always interested to keep track of how many kills/captures I have and at this moment the achievements are really ‘lifetime’ experience, plx keep this experience.

or create some personal stats window like you can keep track of your spvp matches.

If you will make these ‘Adventures?’ then plx make leaderboards of these things ingame so people can directly see how they are doing.
