New Enameled Dyes?

So…yea…

(ruby on left, enameled crimson on right)

Sorin’s post was incredibly misleading. They only previewed the dyes on the first dye slot, which we couldn’t determine if it covers a big area, or just the trimmings of the armor. I have Enameled Crimson dye and it has a beautiful tone compared to the normal dyes which looks very one dimensional.

265/266 vistas. Advice?

What about the cities?

You might have to go through the checklist again: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Map_completion/table
Perhaps screenshot every map as you check them off, so if it is indeed a bug, you can submit a ticket.

Good luck

When my main hit lvl 39, (she’s almost 70 now, yay!) I started doing World Boss events since she is guaranteed a rare from the bonus chests. I wiki-ed a list of all WBs in lower level zones and unlocked the WPs needed for those events, and between spawn times, complete the rest of the map as well.
Rares from lvl 40~60 can earn you some decent gold
It’ll probably be some time before she hits 80 (I play a few hours each week, and also lvling 3 lowbie alts too), but I have saved up enough gold to buy her full 80 exotic armor and weapon sets when she does can’t wait!

Feature packs should be more content focused.

Colin Johanson:

‘A feature release is not an expansion, it’s a release focused on game features. Examples of game features we’ve done in the past would be: guild missions, account achievement system, spectator mode, new pvp maps, daily world boss chests, removing culling and giving visibility options, the WvW WxP system, etc.’

Agree with Ellieanna. The information is easily googled and can be found on both the GW2 Help page and Wiki :

Jumping Puzzle

Not sure if it’s just my very bad luck, or if the silver doubloons actually only appear on the loot table at level 21.

For weeks my level 20 char was only getting the bronze doubloons from JPs. But once I leveled him to 21, I get a silver doubloon nearly every other day. Now my alts are leveled to 21 just to be safe

Feedback: Tuxedo Outfit (Slight critique)

On most outfits, you can disable gloves and helmet by disabling them on your actual armor. This is not the case with Noble Count. Why?

Wow I had no idea you can disable the gloves on outfits! Always thought it was headgear only!

Can’t wait to check it ingame once I get home:D:D

Total Make Over Kit cover Armor Color?

Every character created gets a set of 21 “Starter Dyes”. I believe the ‘base’ color of your starter armors are from that pool.

Just check it out in your Hero panel under the Dye tab.

Why no green commander tag?

Could be that one of the most common form of color blindness is the decreased ability to distinguish between red and green.

Also, most of the wvw maps have green terrain (especially EB). Having a green tag that is not very visible kinda defeats the purpose of having a tag….

Outfit Alter Suggestion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Ghost.5296

Ghost.5296

Yeah, basically what Lilith said. Your suggestion is already in-place. (see wiki: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Outfit)

What I’d like now is the ability to hide the shoulders. Some of them are waayyyy too big and looks ridiculous.

And, the ability to display armor skins for headgear. I really wish I can wear my glasses or aviators with my outfit =(

Human cultural armor bug?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Ghost.5296

Ghost.5296

^ Yup, what Mystic said.

It’s not a bug. Your preview window is currently using the dyes of your current armor. If your armor only has 1 or 2 dye slots (like gloves) and the previewed armor has more, then it will default the extra dye slots to gray (or “undyed”).

I would recommend adding dyes to the preview where the dye channels are (either from dyes in your inventory or from the TP).

Queensdale's Death

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Just imagine this. You’re a new player, out exploring Queensdale. You’re told that this game isn’t about farming (thats another debate), and it strives on co-corporation. You see a champion, you and a few other newbies kill it.

Then all of a sudden, you get yelled at by 50 people calling you all sorts of names. You ask why, they answer it’s because you ruined their farm.

Does that sound good to you?

This was exactly what happened to me a few months back. My noobish self was exploring Queensdale and completing hearts when I wandered into a cave and touched a stone/rock. Out popped a champ troll (which killed me pretty quickly), and it ran out of the cave and started rampaging the farms nearby. I had a chuckle watching it kill all the farmers and bulls and harpies in its path …

Anyways some players nearby stopped to help kill it, but one disgruntled person called out in mapchat that the troll is dead and the abuse started. I had to log off the game entirely when I got whispers.

As much as I tried to ignore it, I was still rather upset and in a foul mood for the rest of the day.

BP, CD, it has been a real pleasure going up against you guys this week. Quite the refreshing change from the previous 5+ weeks of stale/unbalanced matchups.

Tequatl and Wurm box drop rates

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Ghost.5296

Oh I am aware, but you can only get the daily chest once a day per account. So regardless of how many times the boss is being killed in day, that will not give me a 2nd chance at the reward.

If they implement a token reward system, then I agree that the token should be rewarded only once a day, obtainable from the exotic dragon chest (correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that it is once a day per acct). Removes the ‘farming’ mentality so players can move on to other objectives until the next reset.

I support Zilent’s suggestion of 100 tokens for 1 guaranteed reward chest. That requires a min 100 days of successful attempts. It is also a reasonable long-term-ish goal that most players can work towards.

It is quite frustrating for players like me who have been killing Teq nearly every day since the overhaul last Sept (that’s roughly 240 days) and have never received an Ascended chest or Tequatl’s Hoard. And yet friends/guildies who have only killed Tequatl a handful of times has gotten one or two, one even on their first kill.

I wouldn’t ask for the RNG chests to be removed entirely since it is a very nice surprise when you do get one. The lucky can stay lucky. With a token reward system in place, at least the unlucky, but perseverant will have a guaranteed reward for their efforts.
