Share your exp why you lose/win a match

in PvP

FrostyBou.5491

Because 2 teammates continue to push far even though the other 3 of us keep telling them to hold home and mid and to stop going to far, but they die, respawn and go straight back to far over and over…

I hate how dependent you are on other people for the legendary backpack, completely out of your control. loss streaks where your teammates seem intent on tanking the match, win/loose/win/loose which gets you nowhere… ARGH!!!!

Kraitkin - Projectiles

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

FrostyBou.5491

This has bugged me for a while and is coming back up since I’m about to complete another legendary. I’ve got kraitkin(I love the skin) and it bugs me that as far as I know all other legendaries replace the projectile with something else. Kraitkin is unique in that it doesn’t. I would really love to be able to throw eels at people! (especially on my guardian and mesmer)

Just wondering if there was something that prevented this legendary from having a feature that all the other ones have.

Help the Pact team and clear the graveyard of the Risen in straights of devastation. Is there a trick to this event? I’ve done it 4 times in a row now and either it ends randomly or suddenly scales to astronomical heights at the point it’s supposed to spawn like 8 mobs to kill.

I am looking into a 4k monitor but found some old threads where there was the complaint that the ui did not scale well at that resolution. I couldn’t find any recent threads but I may have missed them. Has the scaling improved any or is it still pretty small at high resolutions even with the largest ui scale?

I bought it before I found out it had basically no animations. I’m disappointed with it. I really think it does need a flying animation and maybe a idle animation where it spits out little fireballs or breaths fire or something…

Seems to be running fine, interesting note is that the autodetect graphics option now puts all the settings about medium instead of the same settings as best appearance. I did add the 64 bit exe to the nvidia control panel but it still detects it at medium graphics settings by default.

Bah. This was the very reason that as soon as I was done getting the masteries to play through the HoT story I went straight to the autoloot mastery so I could go get the hero point scrolls in WvW and not have to worry about loosing out on loot like before. Especially since it was previously confirmed by a Dev that it was going to pick everything up, even if you were dead in WvW. I’m a bit annoyed it hasn’t been fixed to crossover yet.

Reclaimed Weapons Collection?

So I was unlocking all the reclaimed weapon skins and it progressed an achievement that was dark green.

Anyone know what achievement they progress?

Ending Up in empty layers

FrostyBou.5491

I got the network 1083 error earlier, fixed it by logging into another char but when I got back on my character I was on when I got disconnected I’m getting put on empty layers. If I leave and come back I get put in the same layer over and over. Dragon’s stand meta has had not enough people to start it for 30 min now., That’s how few people are on the same layer I keep getting put on.

If it matters, I’m temporarily using my cell phone to tether to for internet as my regular cable internet is down.

Yeah, It’d be nice if they swayed or if it’s not possible, then if the chains could just be removed it wouldn’t look so awkward.

Or maybe longer chains that wrap around the arm a time or two? That’d get them out of the way.

[suggestion] Trans charges from glory shards

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: FrostyBou.5491

FrostyBou.5491

I’d have to agree, The only reason I pvp is for the dungeon collections(Not big on doing dungeons) and trans charges. They are too expensive to buy from the store in my opinion, so I pvp for them. I’d much rather the tomes of knowledge be reduced instead of the trans charges. I’ve got 15 80s and enough tomes to make 2 more if I ever buy slots. I’ve only got 45 trans charges, and am working on almost nothing but PvP right now so that I can get as many as I can before they get nerfed.

So.....gold caps.

FrostyBou.5491

Having accounts authorized for a higher amount would just make the gold sellers focus more on compromising accounts and using them to send out gold. Maybe if the accounts had a additional security feature like the token or SMS would allow them to send/receive higher amounts. I don’t have the statistics, so I don’t know if that would even be a workable solution.

Also why is it like pulling teeth to get official word on this? At least let us know that you are reading this and doing SOMETHING. I mean we can all see that this post has been viewed almost 4k times already. Just say something.

I’m going to assume either they are trying to decide on or coding in a fix, or due to the rather small amount of folks that it seems to have affected (based on the number of folks actually posting in the various threads) they are hoping it blows over. At least until the end of the week, I’m going to go with the first assumption especially since Anet has a history of usually only responding when they have something definitive to say.

Omg, high-low dresses. Yay!!!
Anet knows some of the current trendy styles xD

I did not know this term before. I was looking at them and thought they did not look like any wedding dresses I’ve ever seen anyone wear before. Now that I google it, i see there are actually wedding dresses that are similar in style. They do not seem to have the same formalness(?) that most wedding dresses have, but I have learned something today.

I’m running into the same problem. even if you select chapter 8, start it then quit it, it reactivates chapter 1 of season 2.

(and I’m not talking about the compass, I know that can be turned off)

FrostyBou.5491

Can’t recall if I’ve ever posted this, but doing map completion on another character in Orr and the content guide is bugging me again. In every other map it will point out undiscovered areas when personal story and events are disabled, in the 3 Orr zones it will point out another zone once you’ve completed the poi/vista/heropoints. Any chance we could get this fixed to properly point out undiscovered areas in these zones?

Hover Wallet Missing

FrostyBou.5491

I only ever used the hover wallet, never once pulled up the one in the hero panel, so I was kinda disappointed when we lost it with the new UI. One thing that might make it more friendly right now for some of us is if there was a way to lock it to the same size as the inventory window but I’d definitely like that functionality back.

Gold>Gems vs Gems>Gold

FrostyBou.5491

Spidy’s chart. Everyone got off on gold>gems so I may have misinterpreted what they were saying as my interest is the gems to gold exchange at the moment.

If my understanding is correct then, spidy’s chart is way off on the gems to gold exchange and does not accurately reflect the in game exchange? If so then I apologize for wasting everyone’s time with my question as it seems it was based on bad information.

But the ratio is widening.

72/100 is 72% 720/1000 is 72%

Right now difference is 112300/198000 (Gems to gold/gold to gems) = 56.7%

Gold>Gems vs Gems>Gold

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: FrostyBou.5491

FrostyBou.5491

The gems to gold rate is approximately 72.25% of the gold to gems rate as it appears the exchange sinks 15% of gold for each transaction.
.

My confusion is that it doesn’t seem to be 72%, the difference between gold>gems and Gems>gold is slowly widening. It was 64% at the beginning of the year, and is now 56% or was last night. Even if they were fixed percentages, 72% and a 15% transaction fee, you’d expect them to be a fixed percentage apart at all times. Instead the Gems>Gold is plateauing while the Gold>Gems is moving away from it. That’s what I’m wondering about.

Gold>Gems vs Gems>Gold

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: FrostyBou.5491

FrostyBou.5491

I was going to buy some gems and convert them to gold since the gold > gems rate is so high and I’ve got a little extra cash. I hadn’t looked at the ratio of gold>gems/gems>gold recently and was mildly surprised when I realized it wasn’t 70% like it was last time I payed attention to it. Back at the beginning of the year it was 65% and now it’s 56% difference. Can anyone explain the economic reason why the gold>gems is rising so much faster than gems>gold? Looking at the graphs on spidy, its obvious they are linked but the relationship is steady widening between them the more expensive gems get for in game gold the gems>gold is starting to stagnate.

It seems to me (not being a MMO economist or working in the game industry) that you’d want the rate to be fixed between them so if it gets really high it encourages people to pull out a credit card and buy gems to convert to gold. Or would the preference be that you would want Gold>Gems to get high enough that it becomes unfeasible for anyone but those that are really good at farming gold to be able to afford Gold>Gems it so everyone else ends up pulling out a credit card if they want a quick influx of gold or to buy and item in the gemstore?

The problem I see with the 2nd reason is that it needs to stay low enough that the new players coming in feel like they aren’t late to the party and can’t afford the occasional item converting gold>gems and they feel like only the veteran players are catered to. (though I know many longtime players are fairly short on gold as well)

This Beta Portal is a freaking sham....

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: FrostyBou.5491

FrostyBou.5491

But you do realize you CHOSE to do that. You CHOSE to spend that time in there, farming away, full well knowing that there was a great chance you wouldn’t get the portal. It sucks you didn’t get one, but surely it can’t be entirely surprising.

Correct, but that doesn’t negate the fact that after farming, those who had bad luck feel considerably worse than if they had simply missed the opportunity via a random draw from the mailing list. The current drop system for the beta invites also breeds the strife and hurt that many are posting about both here and on other forums.
