Guild Wars 2

Quip III:

You need Black Powder to make Confetti pouches
The description says you can get it from Thegren Topjaw in Plains of Ashford, but it does NOT appear in the vendor

But they have the “No grind phylosophy” !
I’m sure you are all exaggerating….Oh wait.

Ya know, pulling that phrase out really works better if you remember it ONLY applies to getting exotic gear… which is pretty much exactly as trivial as intended. There’s basically no grind getting your basic endgame gear. Skins, exotics, titles, oddities… you WILL grind like a millstone getting those and never once make them feel bad about it.

I agree with you and I don’t mind grinding for it but I can’t help but feel stressed during the events, they are broken, you need to tag and leave, not work together and finish them together and on top of that its just for a small amount of days, so if you miss a few tags and are just below the 15 blooms treshold, your chances of making it in time next to your responsibilities gets lower. this is a not fun way of grinding and stressful way of grinding for a milestone

Malediktus.9250:

I think the low bloom rate is good. Makes sure not everyone unlocks all the rewards and stops them from being devalued.

I get where you are coming from, I would agree if it wasn’t for the fact that it’s planned events at specific times, which means that in that short period of time, everyone should not do anything but play GW2 those days, cause you can’t plan things in between those events. So it is really unfair for those who are really deticated but also have other responsibilities

I really want some of the items.. but getting 5 to 20 blooms? (and maybe 3 daily bonusses, but its just not enough for the amount of time we get)
You are practically forcing us to play all day and all night. I don’t have the time for that and it wouldn’t be good for me if I did. so the amount you get must be increased significantly! cause this is kind of rediculous.

Please adress this issue ArenaNet
Especially cause the events are timeconsuming and sceduled over the day, I’d have to stay home and wait for each and every event and waste days on it. Not really up to your philosophy of “not waiting to have fun”
I’d hate to miss out on those things cause I have other responsibilities.

Hello Anet,

I have really enjoyed the past beta! for the first time I actually feel like playing mesmer a lot! The only thing I would like to see improved is the wells. I love the playstyle but I feel like some of the wells are a bit underwhelming, they only really do enough (compared to the other classes) when I spam all of them on top of each other and continuum split to do it again. for example, I felt like the staff 5 skill had much more impact on a fight than 2 wells combined. I enjoy playing half support but self sustainable, I just feel like the effects of the wells need a little tweak, more alacrity and slow duration or some other condition added to it so it feels like I have more impact on a fight

Besides that, I wouldn’t mind the mobs to be a little bit stronger while fighting in big groups of people, the maps have been really immersive (props for that!!) when I play alone or with few people, but it just gets the same as it has been before when I’m fighting together with a lot of people (which should be the best in such social game!)

Greetings,
K. van der Kam

Hey Anet,
I’ll keep my advice short, cause I know you don’t have a lot of time!

- biggest advice; don’t be scared to make it challenging and to not please everyone.
Make it so we can keep on improving ourselves and almost nobody will ever reach the top point or make it endless (leaderboards were a good idea for that) but we need more! it will make Guild Wars 2 much more popular and it’s endgame content.

- Don’t nerf the mobs, keep it hard, it’s 80+ content, it should be hard
plus it will make healingbuilds fun in the small zergs.

- Make masteries take ages! We want to be entertained with this expansion till the next one, plus it makes having all masteries respectable and prestigious instead of the next normal or required to take part in advanced parties. It will be so cool to see someone do something amazing and you would know that he spent a lot of effort into one mastery, if you’d add complex masteries later on, it could even turn into a sort of new non-combat class feeling (Think of RuneScape professions) that would make me so excited.

- Try to make the legendary mastery not too much about being rich, i’ve seen some collection things in the preview that you could only get if you’ve got a recipe that costs hundreds of gold, I don’t think its fun, make it extremely hard or timeconsuming in other ways than just getting gold, we’ve been doing that for too long now.

BUG

at the beginning of the story instance, the sylvari’s voiceover doesn’t toggle at his first sentences (happend to me all 3 times I completed the instance)

Keep up the great work!!

Hey everyone,
I got very dissapointed today when I found out that I could not get the “Apostle Cowl”
head skin anymore for my mesmer..
From what I can find on the internet, I learned that only the chestpiece is available from a personal story quest? I think that is very odd.

Is there any way I can still get the cowl? else I need to give up on finishing my character I worked hard for

Thanks in advance!

So I got this problem with my monitor saying " HDMI2 out of range. 33.7kHz/ 30Hz" when I put my resolution on 1920×1080p.

my Macbook Pro is hooked up to my LG IPS277l-BN monitor with an HDMI cable + mini displayport cable.

I got my external and my main macbook screen both on 60Hz, also my in-game settings are on 60Hz. Still it thinks it is on 30Hz?

I hope there is a fix for my problem, even though I doubt it
would it maybe be different if I used a DVI cable?
please help!

Guys I solved my problem!

I tried all of the options first and it didn’t work, but the solution was incredibly simple!
I changed my graphics in-game. that’s litterally it.

I had it on the “autodetect preset”, changed it to “best performance” and afterwards back to “autodetect”

Hope this solves it for you too
