Guild Wars 2

As of the demo, you can toggle the revenant blindfold off like any other headgear, was not able to see if any other headgear can be used though.

So after being one of the first common players in the world to experience HoT… Your main reveal is that the toggleable headpiece is toggleable.

My mind has been blown.

Most of the revenant things were already displayed on the livestream, sorry. As for the story we played through, didn’t really want to hand out spoilers. I can message you if you want with the details, but I’m sure its been written on one of the big sites already. Most people weren’t looking at the little cosmetic aspects, but I head quite a few people in line with me think the blindfold was going to be non-toggleable.

Foefaller.1082:

I figured the blindfolds are optional.

Now I kinda wonder if, like GW1 Ritualists, even without an eyes-covering headpiece your Revenant still fights with their eyes closed.

Nope, she still had her eyes open. They were a pale color, but that could have been the default character creation as I didn’t mess with it at all.

I was able to play the demo at PAX yesterday (thank you arenanet staff for making our wait informative and talking to us!). As of the demo, you can toggle the revenant blindfold off like any other headgear, was not able to see if any other headgear can be used though.

I for one would love to be able to use a sniper rifle in WvW, but I think a support-type staff thief could be another cool route to go. It would focus on shadows, with stealth/ confusion/ blind type abilities. You guys think there’s any chance for this?

I completed through episode 4 of season 2 and was wondering how much exactly I’ve missed. Are there any rewards and titles that I absolutely cannot get anymore (Like the bioluminesence armor)? Where can I go to catch up on all the content and story?

This is the zerker s/d build I run for WvW, be it zerging or roaming. After this last patch, I’m not sure how viable it is, or what changes I should make. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Using Bonetti’s Rapier and Usoku’s Needle.

Normally these trailers are quite boring to me, but I was actually shocked when the zephyr exploded. Well done Anet, I’m looking forward to season 2 now.

I was using a premade build for a while on my new thief in WvW zerging and a bit of havoc/roaming, but I steadily came to hate it except for the s/d aspect. I started messing around with traits, but I have no idea if what I’m doing is effective. The idea is for quite a bit of stealth and regen to make up for the glassiness, and less emphasis on stealing. If someone could look at it and make any suggestions, that’d be wonderful, especially for the runes, as they’re left over from the old build.

I can’t represent 100% of the time, as I also have a WvW guild. Just looking for a guild to complete pve events and things like coordinated Boss Blitz on. Would prefer the guild to be on TC, but it’s not necessary.

I am a Verizon user. I was having major issues. Somone posted this. I took a chance. I used this person’s suggestion. Fixed my issue instantly.

Kilam.4913:
I’m also on Verizon in the NYC area and am experiencing this issue.
Instead of setting up a VPN, try this workaround:
Edit C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts using notepad (run as administrator)
Add this line at the bottom:

THANK YOU. I was afraid I would never get the patch installed. Worked like a charm.

I main an ele, but I’m frankly getting tired of the class. I spend most of my time in WvW and sitting on a ledge throwing meteor showers and water fields is getting old. I’m trying to level a thief through a mix of crafting, personal stories, and mostly WvW. And advice for where to put the few points I have, and what weapon setups would be the most useful at my low level of 21? And for gear, should I be stacking power or toughness/Vit? (To clarify, this is mostly for WvW zerg trains.)

How much longer do we have to get them done? I’ve heard everything from tomorrow at reset to next week.

Maining a staff support ele in WvW, I wanted an alt with a bit of a faster pace for some fun. What I’m wondering, since I no nothing of the class, is what gear stats I should be looking for while leveling, and where I should be putting my points as they come for general pve leveling. Thanks in advance!

The only thing that will fix this problem in to reduce the amount of exp given by crafting, but I don’t really see that happening.

For number 3, I can only attest to WvW, but full celestial seems to be where it’s at for d/d and staff with the meta d/d build.

I’ve been wanting to roll a heavy armor alt for a while, but I can never decide between guard and warrior. I’ve tried so many times to stick with guardian, but the combat feels slow and clunky to me and boring. However, I am constantly told that a warrior of equal skill to a guardian opponent will never win. What exactly is wrong with warriors, and is it viable to roll one, for WvW specifically?

I love my ele, but she was a pain to level and I want to try my hand at melee. I keep hearing signet build, but I’ve not seen what gear stats I should go for, what weaps I should use, and where to put points besides 10 in arms. I plan to level to 30 in pve, then a mix of pve, crafting, and wvw. Thanks in advance!

Honestly, all they would need to do is give some norn hairstyles to humans, and I would be more than happy.

Haha, I found myself! I happen to be the human in red and white town clothes with a bald head due to the hat.

Are they still free? If not, how much are they and when do we get guesting?

I’m an idiot. I accidentally deleted the character with the gem store witch outfit on it, and have no idea how to recover it again. Any help?

Anyone? I’m trying to get the witch outfit before it leaves the gem store tomorrow.

Yep, Tarnished Coat for US and Piken Square for EU. I can assure you that you will find plenty of RP on Tarnished Coast, and I assume Piken Square. Here is a link you might find helpful in finding a guild and RP contacts http://www.guildwars2roleplayers.com/

Tarnished Coast feels good to me, and that’s probably because we are the unofficial RP server for the US. Having all the RPers here keeps our population up.

It says in the little window when buying gems that you can use a debit card as well as credit card and paypal to buy gems. When you select how to buy gems however, there are only options for credit cards or paypal. I’m trying to buy gems with a american express gift card, but I’m not sure if it’s possible. Any help?

So which one? I really like that warriors have the ability to use bows, and I really like that there is a magic element to guardians. I would mainly have this character for wpvp and rp. So basically, which one is my best bet for wpvp?

I have the exact same feeling you do. I just hope that it comes back next year.

I got lucky enough to have guildies haul my pathetic main (level 21) through to get both books, but I don’t want to ask them to haul my level 8 alt that I just started through it again. I would adore for it to be account bound.

I saw that too. Another little detail I loved was the texture of the candy corn elementals. They have the exact matte texture of real candy corn. Really impressed with Anet and their attention to detail.

I would really love to have it on my lowbies who can’t run it because of the level of the zones. Please?

What is the NPCs name?

HP, oh lord… HPs generally have trouble colling themselves.

I just checked it, and that can’t be it.

I’m trying to understand the graph on the gem-gold and gold-gem page, but I don’t get it. Is the average price the average price for 1 gem? I’m really confused right now.
