Guild Wars 2

Bitterfrost Frontier Elixir, I collect all the parts and when I go to the spring and use them it takes them all out of my inventory but doesn’t give me the buff, has happened at least once to myself and once to my partner.

( I was planning to do the next bit of story today but couldn’t as I can only get one firestone perday. So has also blocked my progress.)

Probably already been mentioned before but some gliders in the game would be nice, I mean NOT gemstore.
Ideally one for each order (need order back piece completed to purchase?)
One for each crafting profession , would be crafted?

Argh I just saw this, thanks for the extra week on the deadline :P gonna try whip somthing up

I noticed this too and it bugs me slightly screenshot attached in hope of a fix.

The third part from the right should be the tempest loop.

My thoughts as well, id like to see at least 5 utilities to choose from preferably 6, a choice of heal skills would be nice (2 per legend?) and a static elite tied to the legend.

I personally think rather than weapon swap, the weapon skills should change slightly depending on the Legend,

eg staff rather than heals allies would cause conditions when in the Mallyx legend.

Lore wise this would mean the legend empowering all of the Revenant not just the utilities (which we need more of in each Legend aswell)

I also get this problem, switching simple UI off. It happens every time so stuck with simple UI for now.

I can attach a .txt file of the crash report.

Congrats dude, that’s one way to get a dungeon group :P

Mmm I guessing you want to share the armour between Asura and Charr, sounds tough. I personally hide shoulders most of the time anyway, but Vigil ones are quite cool.

Wanted to practice my sequential art with something relatively quick. Decided to use GW as the basis let me know what you think.

You can find more of my stuff on my DeviantArt profile at huntsforge.deviantart.com

They did it with the corrupted shortbow, ages ago. They had to change it twice as they originally changed it to a skin no one liked.

Hi, I just got back into using my engie and being a bit fed up of full ‘zerk’ on other chars want to try something different. I am just wondering how viable it is for openworld PvE and dungeons (mostly with my guild)? Also any advice on builds that make the best use of the high crit chance, runes and sigils would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Use an item you buy off the merchant now. Offering of (dungeon) costs 200 tokens

Heres mine xD

Norn – Ele/Trucker – SE
Sylvari – Engie – CM
Asura – Guardi with Kodan escort – HotW

Also bonus pic of my eles other set (I couldn’t decide which to enter).

So I tried to make my ele look like Gandalf, anyone else got any toons from Middle Earth, I’d love to see them? (even more Gandalf’s)

sounds good, as someone who is doesn’t enjoy crafting, id be running fractals a lot more if i could get ascended armor from them. even 100runs per peice sounds better than crafting.

Since ascended wepons came in i always thought fractal weapons should drop as ascended anyway, but perhaps an item to ‘ascend’ exotic gear?

When you read ‘kitten’ as profanity every time, or try to work out what swear is intended in a sentence about kittens.

After the 15th it will stay account bound after use, so you will be able to switch it between chars when you use them and when/if you make a warr they can use it too

That being said I love axe on my necro and wish i had the patience to try crafting a legendary (esp Frostfang one of the best imo) and from my limited exp with ranger I really like the offhand skills on it.

The whole social aspect goes 2 ways though, if you dont talk to people why would they talk to you? We had people join our guild rep for a month, never get involved in conversation, never join guild dungeon runs and then just leave for another guild.

I agree about the lfg thing at lvl30 and think that is a great idea.

Crafted exotic celestial for my ele, and put 3 divinity runes and three traveler runes a week before ascended armour was anounced, soon going to be a bigger mistake after the changes to runes on the 14th.

Conjure Fiery Greatsword according to this list would probably be your best best, I logged in just to sugest emberglow but apparently that wont work.

I disagree, I think it would break the flow of the game. If you set off on an adventure make sure you are properly equipped in the 1st place. I do think there should perhaps be more places to retrait, for example each outpost or at least each map should have a retrainer. Same in wvw trainers at more towers could be of benefit but only in safe spots where you wont be attacked.
In pvp well someone who is changing build isnt helping, and would hopefully get ganked while in the build screen.

I saw a post the other day (can’t find it now) saying the last boss was constantly spawning chests and xp reward after defeat. Guess that is being fixed.

Well its already there then just do it before you go I’m not saying the trait resetting is perfect but its not the location you do it thats the problem, I would much rather be able to save trait setups and have to go to the vendor to switch between them than change anywhere.

EDIT: I’m just saying this would be really broken I mean pve is already fairly trivial and you want it easier.

That would be nice, wishful thinking but would be nice.

But wouldnt that just make the game too easy? I mean its not exactly hard as it is, specific builds are almost never required in any part of PvE. The only time ive been challenged is with attempting to solo group content, even with bad pugs in dungeons the worst that happens is it takes a bit longer.
Also I missed the 1st year of gw1 so can’t comment on that but as far as I know respecs were free.
My problem is that its too easy to retrait, in dungeons as long as its not your instance you can just leave go respec and come back. I dont want to be playing with some one who keeps changing their traits all the time, restrictions are needed to keep the challenge and the fun.

Pretty sure in gw1 you could only ‘retrait’ or even change skills in a town and the instance reset if you left so was hardly useful for situational playing and specing. As it is gw2 is much quicker and easier with the weapon switch and easy utility change. If you are that desperate to change traits mid instance you will have to buy one of the reset things of the gem store or prepare yourself in advance, like you would have in gw1.

All I know is my (tiniest) asura was about the same size as my guildies (massive norn) boot :/ so will have a look later

I like bolt too, but cba with farming XD

IMO armours that go well:
Asura Cultural – not good for you im afraid,
Any CoE set
Medium CM set
Medium Magitech
Any Zodiac – maybe
Light Acolyte/named
Human Light T3
Light Profane
Light Vigil
Heavy crafted?

“use whatever utilities you need and you should adapt for each situation.”

Quote of the game for every proffesion!

Anyway thanks have been looking for some build inspiration for my necro as he approaches 80

The Mexican Cookie.3690:

Dungeoneering is the worst word ever

I agree, Spelunking is much better. Even though the most of the dungeons aren’t caves it still sounds better

Hi, try looking in your ‘documents’ folder for a GW2 file. The game seems to save screenshots there too and there is a music file with that. Then follow http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Customized_soundtrack

I reckon you will get same effects on a different existing skin, going off the others karma set or named/exotic acolyte would be my guess.

SE p1 is also pretty quick abt 10-15 mins especially if your team can cycle reflects at the golem boss’s.

1. Its up to you, I usually salvage when I cant be bothered to sell on the TP, if you want to try crafting its probably worth salvaging for the mats too.

2. MF will potentialy get you better drops, but I never reall noticed a change.

3. Some things just hit hard they are usually easy to dodge though, having done pvp probably puts you in a better position than some purely pve’ers.

4. I think rangers are fine in pve, great for solo play although there are a lot of neysayers, I’d ignore them if you like the playstyle.

5. Only tip I can think of is dodging but you probably already got that from pvp.

6. The ‘champion train’ in queensdale is supposedly profitable and ascended mats drop, I dont know as I find any kind of farming a bit dull.

Most importantly have fun with whatever you do in game

I read somewhere that you get to choose the stats, could be wrong though.

I like the music, but it doesnt fit for GW2.

On the other hand I think it was made for the contest not the game so its fine.

Gw1 Chaos Axe plz

Hey i’m interested please have a look at my gallery on huntsforge.deviantart.com and if theres anything I can do for you feel free to give me a shout.

Also if you are interested in improving your art skills watch the vids at idrawgirls.com (ex-anet employee Xia Taptara) I have learnt a lot just from his youtube channel. I dot the free cash to pay for his vids but probably will when I do.

You need 7 recipes:

Insignia,
Head,
Shoulders,
Top,
Legs,
Gloves,
And shoes

400 in tailoring
And abt 30days of fusing quartz at a channel skill point.

Yes they are taking way too long, they should have had the next bit of personal story ready a year after the 1st and deal with another dragon. Even at that rate it would be 5-6 years before we defeat them all. Hopefully they will resolve this ridiculous ‘Scarlet Saga’ and that will be a prelude to the next personal story in less than 5-6 months fingers crossed.

I wouldn’t hold my breath though.

I’d like a pistol/s or Rifle for my Ele (elemental bullets)

now slightly off topic
Hammer for my Necro
and some range for my Guardian (LB probably)

I am fed up with it now, but the rest of the game is dead Orr is almost empty apart 3-4 people (trying to) complete the map. It certainly isn’t making me spend money on them. I think I would prefer a substantial update every quarter to the 2 week timescale or at least have the 3 months having the same story and bring it to a conclusion.

As it is now we have so many loose ends we dont really know what is going on its like trying to read 4 books at the same time going from chapter to the next. The other problem I think is none of the teams have very good writers (flame and frost was by far the best story) and to me it feels like they are designing the content and then spending a few hours takking a story on.

Just my opinions but I’m probably only going to come back for the continuation of F&F or permanent content now.

I hope they at least have the dragons as permanent story, that we can do at our own leisure. I will be very annoyed if they make taking down the rest of the dragons as short term ‘living story’ which I feel is great as episodic content but is still unrelated to the main GW2 plot.

I am led to beleive the zenith weapons and the skins from achievements are unlocked, and once you have unlocked one you can access it as often as you like, like the HOM skins obtained from playing GW1. Will see when the 1st is obtained either today or tomorrow anyway.

On the other hand I kind of agree on the other hand the limited edition skins (Jade and Sclerite especially) seem hard to obtain for those who exclusively PvP.

I would like this too! I only manged to get on for the one that turned you into a branded creature but it was great. Something like that would be fantastic on occasion. Que the ‘but I cant make it waaah waaah’ players now.

The problem as I see it at least, isnt the difficulty the difficulty is fine. It is the fact that it’s temporary and I if I dont want to do hard content at the moment I miss out.

Temporary content should be challenging but accessible, hard content should be there all the time for players to enjoy in their own time.

Cooking and artificing are the cheapest and if you keep to making level relevant stuff (stuff thats not too high level to consume) you can use the food and potions for an extra 20% exp from kills.

Kaaboose.3897:

Just make this dungeon permenant content Anet. It’s your best dungeon by far and PLEASE do not give into these whiny players that want everything handed to them on a silver platter.
The rewards are great, the encoutners are interesting and challenging… I don’t know what else to say except GOOD JOB! Can we have more?

This, I love hard content its why I PUG dungeons give that extra challenge but I like to do it in my own time, not forced to do it in a week or two. The time limit on this dungeon (aside from the bugs) is one of the things putting me off.

Myself and some guildies are also getting this issue, its every level up. Wasn’t doing it earlier so I wonder if its to do with specific zones. Has been happening to me in Frostgorge Sound.
