Guild Wars 2

Thank you for posting this. It has been driving me nuts =P

@Ayrilana.1396 Thank you for pointing these out. I did actually read both the wiki page and the blog, however each says like 1 sentence about a crafting limit well into each article. However, your correct the information is searchable and I missed it.

However, the point of the single crafting limit being hard to find is really a side point. The main point is that after you craft one precursor and then you go back and look everything over again, it seems apparent that you can craft another precursor because you can craft everything up to the precursor and even the extra materials that you get for completing collections are available. When you look at crafting a second precursor in game it seems intuitive and clear that you can make another one as everything is there.

@Just a flesh wound.3589 Thank you for your response, I did submit a ticket, hopefully it will be worked out.

I crafted spark and I have to say that I love the precursor crafting system. Its a lot of fun, interesting and I can break up my costs into manageable chunks as I create the precursor in pieces.

After I created my incinerator I noticed that I could make a second precursor by buying the parts that I had received when I completed my collections earlier. I spent a significant amount of time searching the forums, the wiki, and doing searches on the web to find out if it was possible to craft a second precursor. I could not find any information and I could see that I definitely had everything that I needed aside from the parts that I needed to craft such as the 26 deldrimor steel ingots, 10 elonian leather squares, etc.

Since I couldn’t see any reason not to I started crafting my second precursor. The costs that I listed above are not cheap to me. I think I have been crafting the parts for about 1.5+ months. Today I finished it. Well, I should say I crafted everything up to the last piece. I had craft 2 tiers of spark, salvaging both of them and craft all components of the final tier of spark. When I went to put those pieces together I finally get a message stating that I have already crafted that item and I cannot craft it. Ridiculous.

Okay, I am not going to debate whether we should be limited to one precursor of each type. That is a subject for another thread. My point here is that there should have been a warning somewhere before crafting every last piece and then saying I cannot craft the precursor. This is hundreds of gold & months of work for a player like me. There was no warning until it was all crafted into account bound items that have no use.

Ridiculous.

I am not planning on destroying those items any time soon, they are too valuable and I hope that something will be done about this, I am probably not the first person to have this happen and I am sure I will not be the last. I am hoping that some kind of fix will be put in such as reverting the crafted items to their previous components so that I can recover my crafting materials or my preference would be that they remove the one time limit on precursor crafting.

I did my due diligence, I looked into this topic extensively beforehand. There was no warning about being unable to craft the final step. Not even in the final step until you have done everything except click craft.

Something needs to be done to fix this.

Ok, I just wanted to confirm that the unlock works and one of us made a mistake somehow. tyvm

Has anyone completed this unlock? My guild and I just ran it without getting the revealed effect at all and we did not get credit. I couldn’t find any posts or guides about problems with this unlock either.

Prepare for disappointment on that….

+1 vote for SAB!

Whenever production is less than demand, price goes up. There is a lot of people with plenty of gold to fund alts and its seems like most of the population has multiple alts in this game. On the other hand, I think that a relatively low number of rares for low levels are being produced. This creates a situation where there is a lot more demand than supply for low level rares, hence the unreasonably high prices for these rares. This is the main reason for the prices.

I think another reason for the high price is the prices of a lot of low level crafting materials (BTW, those prices were artificially inflated by ArenaNet when they released ascended recipes that require massive amounts of lower end crafting mats). A lot of crafters are supplying those rares for profit, but once the price of a rare drops below the value of the materials (you also have to count tax & a buffer of profit), then the crafters stop making them (There are tools that you can get online to show crafters what items are worth crafting for profit; and, between these + the number of people that craft, all items are being monitored for profitable crafting constantly). Essentially this system adjusts itself to keep prices on lower end rares high.

I was unable to solo the dragon without killing the pods. The way I killed them was when I saw the reticle on my character showing that was about to be caged, I would run to the side of the map & use my heal if needed. If I was at close to full life and out of the main aoe area, then I would let myself be caged, break out and kill the pods. There is some mechanic that causes the pods to stop spawning after killing all 4, but I cant figure out how to consistently get them to stop spawning. Just keep killing them all and dropping the dragons health & they stop respawning, or least take a very long time to spawn.

I think your all over reacting. You made a statement of something like “well, if you really want to keep it….” implying that you would back Tiami; but, she immediately interrupts you saying that she will give up the invention. Clearly this is because of the need to hand over the invention to the Asuran council so that it can actually be put be put to full use and probably so that its benefits can be fully explored.

I actually read this post before doing the story and was quite bummed about being forced to steal my friends invention…but when I actually saw the story: I realized you guys are just over reacting to the concept. You weren’t even chasing her down to get her invention from her….you were chasing her because Braham said that she was running into inquest territory and was likely to get herself into trouble. Which she did.

It would be really nice if the challenge mote had an additional option to simply skip to the next fight.

While I have wasted a good amount of time trying this achievement as well, I did see people complaining about a late update & I just want to say thank you for giving an update and a projected time to fix so that I don’t waste a hours every couple of days on this. ^^

Ok, good point about crit immunity. However, the final burn phase on the severed worm heads requires maximum dps, including crit.

Also, if class damage is getting nerfed 15-25% for most classes, then the timers are going to be a real problem for a lot (if not most) groups that can currently complete the fights.

The above difficulties are just for the players with access to actually completing these events. I have guested to servers that completed Jormag with 10 people and it would seem like a server that can only squeeze out these low numbers are going to find world bosses to be un-killable; and, from what I understand, there is a lot servers with this particular problem.

Doesn’t it seem like the timers on world bosses are going to be a problem with the damage nerfs? Granted, some of them will still be fine, but Teq may suddenly become a lot harder to complete & finishing the worm seems like it will be flat out impossible unless they make a corresponding adjustment to the bosses health. I know crit damage is only being reduced by 10%; but, I am reading all over the forums that most classes are getting an additional nerf of 15-25% of their base damage.

I would like an invite as well =)

Just adding to the list. Getting the same problem as described, cannot join any dungeon.

+1 for the option to remove the warning about salvaging masterwork gear. While your at it, it would be great to have the same option for rares. My main is full exotic/ascended and I haven’t used a rare in months, I don’t even bother checking the AH for their price anymore as it wastes time for a minor benefit at most. Instead I salvage all rares for ectos and I am probably not the only person that does this.

I accidentally deleted the Tome of Influence, Miniature Rytlock and Chalice of Glory on day 1 and recently found this thread. I submitted a new support ticket a few minutes ago.

No speed boost. Took about 4 hours for first win on my necro and I was only able to complete it this time because everyone had exited the instance at about 3 am. The final jump into the clock was very forgiving on my comp, I didn’t even hit the clock and was still loaded into it. After that I finished on my fiancees guardian using her comp which has a smaller monitor and it was extremely difficult to make the last jump, I had to hit the hole in the clock window almost dead on which required me to actually guess when to jump because I needed to start moving for the jump almost right before I could see the clock on the rotation that the window breaks. After that I completed on my elementalist with other players there in only a few tries. No speed boost used on any characters.
