To show off, obviously.
We faced this bug a few times and I think it occures when someone of the group accidentialy enters the bombroom before the prison warden is dead, triggering the cutscene.
Since making a buy offer doesn’t cost you anything and pears aren’t tradable anymore some people may just like to show off, or do it for the lulz. Other than that, more unlikely tough, they want to point out to ArenaNet that there are still a lot of items listed on the trading post that don’t belong there anymore.
The most important thing about making fast gold on the TP is not to tell anyone how exactly you do it.
It’s simple as that. Take the post above me as an example – within 2 minutes this method will be gone.
True in some cases, however, not in the case above as you pointed to. The only way that method would tank is if gems went even higher in price/rares-ectos went way WAY low in price (aka not happening anytime soon).
Actually it’ll tank because there aren’t that many items with those runes available, so the prices of those will rise and the profit will be gone.
I probably spend thousands of gems already and i never bought them with real money. I really don’t see your point, the only difference is that the exchange rate varies and therefore those items don’t have a fixed price, but it doesn’t mean you have to spent real money on them.

Q1. When did you begin playing? (post bw’s)
A1. Headstart, few seconds after the servers went live
Q2. how many hours total do you have? (/age)
A2. ~800hrs
Q3. What’s your most gold banked so far?
A3. 450g
Q4. Do you have a max level character (s)? (number if more than one)
A4. Two. Elementalist & Mesmer
Q5. List 1-3 areas / zones / events / tp; where you spend most of your time for income.
A5. I don’t farm, I play the TP. Mostly Rata Sum, because the NPCs chatter in Lion’s Arch is driving me crazy
Q6. Do you mainly use MF or not?
A6. Not since i started playing the tp and stopped carrying about my loot.
Q7. Have you ever got an exotic weapon from a mob? If so, how many and total?
A7. One, maybe two.
Q8. Have you ever got an exotic weapon from a chest? If so, how many and total?
A8. One, maybe two.
Q9. What’s the most number of rare weapons you have looted in one day or 8hrs time?
A9. Maybe 15 when I was still farming DEs in Orr
Q10. How many rare or exotic weapons do you “expect” to loot in one hour of time?
A10. 1-2
Q11. How many lodestones have you looted total so far? (all types)
A11. 3-6
Q12. Do you craft? If so, do you have a 400 crafter? if so, how many?
A12. I have 6 professions on level 400 since I’m too lazy to level my mesmer by anything but crafting
Q13. Do you sell your looted crafting mats? (specify optional)
A13. Yes unless they are T6 mats I currently need for Gift of magic/might
Q14. Do you feel your return, (in terms of items, completion, income, etc) for your time, has been worth it?
A14. Yes. I only need another 100k karma and around 200 of each t6mat to craft twilight, so yeah – i feel rewarded.
Q15. In ONE word, what needs improved most; from your perspective?
A15. Drop rates, especially T6mats – even this may sound selfish since I still need around 200g worth of them, but the prices are increasing to a rediculous level.

Lupicus and Subject Alpha(path3) are the only real bosses in the entire game. Me and my guild team made all paths of all dungeons together and i think those 2 were the only ones where we failed A LOT at the beginning, then we got to know the mechanics and never needed a second try . Yes, the waypoint is far away when you don’t know how to do it, but you only learn to do it right if you cant just die and just run back to continue. About kiting. I play Elementalist and if you choose the right traits and play staff, you can indeed kite him indefinitly (maybe even solo him (phase 1 would be the greatest challenge))
I’m pretty close to my Legendary and I really think you forgot to mention one simple aspect of the game. Trading. It has been important in GW1 and it is important now. It requires skill as well, and is something a lot of people enjoy. If you don’t like it – you don’t have to, you can gather the materials yourself, you will need longer, but you will get it eventually. I’m actually really happy that lengendaries require mastery in every aspect of the game, and trading is one of them IMO.
The only thing you really need to grind to get a legendary is KARMA. I think if you have done EVERY event in the game and every fractal once, you still wouln’t be close to 1mio. Having to do the same things over and over again to get the karma is pure grind and imo the only thing that is wrong with how legendaries are made. The addition of liquid karma was great, but i think you still need to much karma for the shards.
I really would like a dev to tell us if they are happy with the current prices for t6 mats, because it seriously got rediculous.
ArenaNet didn’t think this trough: I guess they tried to make the game feel more rewarding by increasing the t6 prices. That would have worked, but guess what? Everyone needs t6 mats for everything. It doesn’t matter if you get 1g worth of a t6 mat if you need 1g worth of another OR you get 10g worth of a t6 mat and need 10g worth of another. The only thing this changed is that crafting got a lot more expansive in general. The game doesn’t feel more rewarding at all, because the increase in what you get is exactly the same as the increase in what you have to pay. If you don’t like farming t6 mats and prefer to get your money by doing dungeons etc, you’re gonna have a bad time. Rising the demand of t6 mats was probably the stupidest thing Arenanet decided, because right now, the best way to get money is (except playing the tp) is pure grind.
Congratulations ArenaNet!
This really makes me want the bots to return.
Kodash [DE] uncontested since 2min
still looking for uncontested balthasar (EU)
looking for uncontested EU balth
This has my full support. I don’t think the Balthazar Temple was ever uncontested on my server (Kodash). Either because of bugged Events or lack of players. It’s the most annoying thing about getting a legendary, because srsly, how am i supposed to get 100 players to take part in the event when there are 5 players on the entire map. It’s just bad design. Please, I don’t have a 100+ guild and i really don’t like the idea of having to switch servers just to get my shards.
happened to a party member of our group as well. luckily we didn’t need 5 players for the third fractle
… permanently removing a member from your party for the remainder of the fractal.
If the entire party dies you are able to respawn at the last checkpoint (just like in personal story quests)
