Just send again the reward to everyone like you did for birthday gift bug and activate the reward seller again. Not so difficult.
I agree on the statement that if this was a PvE living story bug would be fixed in a few hours.
After the feature pack, if you removed the weapon you used to make stacks they should disappear but, if you have the same sigil for stacks on your underwater weapon they won’t. Is It a feature or a bug? I’d like to know before wasting money to craft another ascended weapon for stacks only and discover that It was a bug that is going to be fixed soon.
I think that an engi WvW should always use a power build with bomb kit. This allow you to to do heavy area damage in combination with ability 5 and 3 of the rifle. In order to do that you need a good toughness and ability to survive since you need to play melee like a warrior or a guardian.
PvE players are totally messing up the league. WvW players have big difficulties to join borderlands during evening due to a huge amount of PvE players infesting the maps just to farm achievement points and not really playing for the server.
I’m rank 365 and yesterday evening I had to give up playing WvW after an hour of queue because of lot of useless PvE players were occupying slots of people willing to play seriously just to make jumping puzzles or continue to capture central points of the map. Guild members reported that there were even around ten players afk at the citadel wp.
Moreover due to these players without respect we have huge lag since every border has 225 players at the same time.
Please go back farming fractal or at least if you want to stay in WvW you must play to help the server following commander’s orders and don’t disappear immediately after league.
My suggestion: queue order determined by player’s WvW rank.
Bomb Kit is amazing in WvW big fights. It’s absolutely a must have. I use it in combo with the Toss Elixir B stability and Rifle jump to be immediately in the middle of the enemy zerg.
Before the radius was only 120 (and the area 1/4 of what we have now) and was really difficult to hit someone.
9 runs means really a lot of hours of farming just to get part of the ascended back. After that drop you still need a huge amount of money if you don’t keep farming fractal.
Legendaries could downgrade to exotic weapons stats too.
Anyway WvW is not at all only a zerg vs zerg thing but it’s also made of duels and small fights for camps and control points for bloodlust. Morning and afternoon there are often fights between small groups even for keeps.
I played much more than 2 hours in Fractal (5-6) and had not that stupid drop. Moreover even when you drop it you still need a huge amount of money to take the back without keeping farming in fractal.
I hate ascended trinkets too but at least it’s possible to obtain them just playing in WvW and with easy guild missions with the totally absurd exception of backs that forces you to farm Fractal (!!).
Ascended Armours would be the end of any competitive WvW and destroy the spirit of the game. We are talking about 6 objects not a single weapon that is already a very bad thing. People without ascended armours would have a huge disadvantage so WvW only players would be forced to farm a lot of time in PvE just to create a single set for a single character. I hate PvE. I just bought this game for WvW and I don’t want to farm. Don’t even dare about to talk of materials all droppable in WvW because we all know that dragonite ore drops in WvW are ridiculous and moreover you need like 250 g to craft a single ascended weapon.
So if you don’t want to destroy WvW you must downgrade ascended armours to exotic when a player join WvW. This way PvE players would have their advantage but would not affect competitive game.
I know that you won’t do this because ascended armours are a good way to incentive the buying of gems but remember your promise of a farming free experience especially in WvW.
I have simple suggestion: make the ascended gear downscale to exotic when you join WvW. In this way PvE players would have their reward and WvW players no malus for not farming.

I’m very disappointed about these ascended weapons that will be a real problem for WvW only players like me. At least make these weapons buyable with a certain amount of badges like 500. I have one character with only a weapon but I can imagine the disaster that players with more characters and weapons are going to face. Please give us more information about how WvW players are going to buy these weapons.
There is nothing worse than increase the best equipment possible after release in a game where WvW should be the most important part.
Do you think is fair to have the necessity to farm fractal in order to have the ascended back that will give also an advantage in WvW?
Considering that legendary weapons will be ascended items only with a fancy skin and that they are available on the trading post than logic would tell that even normal ascended weapons should be there.
I asked this on another topic: will be the ascended weapon available ad the trading post at a decent price or a WvW player will be forced to farm PvE and crafting to have them?
Hi I’m a 100% WvW player and I hate PvE and things connected like crafting. I’m worried about the new incoming ascended weapons. My concern is if I will be able to buy one at the trading post or I would be forced to start crafting and farming. In case It will be possible just to buy one will be the price affordable or crazy? Thanks in advance.
Yesterday evening we owned the French guys everywhere, every time and in every way possible in the RoF border. I did 4 WvW levels in less than 2 hours.
Hi I’m a nearly 100% WvW player and I’m quite concerned about the future ascended Armors and Weapons. I hate PvE and I don’t like the fact that I will be forced to farm dungeons in order to buy/craft ascended Armors and Weapons just to keep playing WvW at the same level of other players.
I thought that WvW philosophy was to do not force players to farm in PvE to be competitive. So please if you must add these new items make them possible to buy at the trading post at a decent price and let me continue to play only WvW that is the reason I bought the game in the first place.
Thanks.
I have random lag spikes too and this make often the WvW unplayable because if they happen during a fight I die and opponents resurrect. I’m seriously thinking to leave the game because it’s impossible to continue this way.
I did everything that come in my mind to fix the this issue with no success.
Good suggestions but I can’t give up on the elixir S at 25% because it saved my life hundreds of time in WvW. The FT bonus of 15% would be good but if I remove points from power I loose 5.5% of damage on both rifle/pistol and flamethrower and moreover the flame skill is very important because keeps my enemies always burning and that way the FT deals 10% more damage with the first skill.
Anyway you confirmed my sensation about the shield being useless in WvW. I’ll go back to rifle that I used so far with good feedback.
The range increased of rifle is important when you attack fleeing players. I only cry for the loss of “rifle mod” that I used with my old bomb kit build.
I like a lot the effect of the flamethrower but I dislike the utility of the shield abilities in wvw. They don’t guarantee a block from melee weapons and neither form arrow carts and similar. In a fight the ability 5 disappear immediately and seems useless.
Do you think I should go back to the rifle usage? It makes much more damage with longer range and the rocket jump is great. The only problem is that I don’t have any more the “rifle mod” trait because I the juggernaut.
Hi, I’m experiencing random connection lag spikes especially during fights but not only. Suddenly I can keep moving in the area but I don’t get updates from other players movements and can’t use abilities. After some seconds that can be the cause of my death It starts to work again. I don’t have a similar issue with all the other online games I’m playing and the pingtest that I execute are always very good. My connection’s speed is around 11.5 Mb/s of download and 950 Kb/s of upload. I play on the Ring of Fire european server.
