When are we getting more balanced prof specs?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

Elite specs are designed to be more powerful, so it will work better in an expansion or two when we have multiple choices, but base specs will always be underpowered when you want to be competitive or into hard content. You can still play base classes in non-raid PvE, even in HoT.

Has buying BL Chest Keys ever been worth it?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

It used to be worth for getting Black Lion Tickets, buying 1 ticket weapon waiting will it goes up in price then TPing it. It gave more gold then straight gems to gold. However I think now there are just too many BLC skins and not as much interest in getting older ones. Also the change made it worse for getting liquid gold, but possibly better for getting expensive, but account bound stuff.

I agree for Charging Quartz crystals, Celestial was viewed as a powerful stat combo (it’s not tough) and Crystals themselves are fairly difficult to get (home instance and rich+ 2-3 normal nodes in Dry Top) so they won’t really devalue.

As far as ascended matts go, the daily limit is part of the value for them and it should stay as it is.

I hated it, so as long as it had an opt out (like Stronghold) I don’t really mind.

What's Missing from Material Storage?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

Things that could be in Mat Storage or Wallet:

  • Petrified Wood +
  • Blood Rubies +
  • Chak Eggs
  • Reclaimed Metal Plate
  • Legendary Insights
  • Black Lion Scraps/Tickets

+ Salvaging can be solved by vendor just like pristine relics

Things that really should go in:

  • Shimmering crystal
  • Tenebrous crystal
  • Milling Basin
  • Crystalline Bottle
  • +1 Agony Infusions
  • Amalgamated Gemstones

Few things that would be nice in material storage:

  • Doubloons
  • Gift of Exploration
  • Gifts of Fleet, Tarir, Chak and Jungle

Frenzy III: Rage - Collection Bug

Frenzy III collection is bugged again.

Cannot acquire a Lashoosh Friendship Bracelet.

Clear the poisonous urchins from Lashoosh an event that occurs underwater in Isenfall Lake. This event doesn’t happen.

Yeah, I have just camped the spot for over 2 hours hoping that it would spawn.

Very much fix please, it ruins the skin IMO.

Will more CT masteries be added?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

Nothing official has been said, but it’s rather unlikely there is only about 15 spare Pact Tyria mastery points (some of them rather hard to get), so they would have to add a bunch of new mastery achievements as well.
They are far more likely to add more HoT masteries till Xpac 2, then doing just Xpac 2 masteries. Since they come with maps and achievements already in mind for the masteries they come along with.

Engineer "Detonate Supply Crate Turrets"

When used under water this tool-belt skill explodes all of the deployed turrets, not just ones coming from the Supply Crate.

[PvP] Not teleported from outside the gates

Kecal.3964

Encountered this problem few times on Beta Sky Hammer and Beta Spirit Watch (not had a chance to check other maps).

I was just outside the gates (still on the elevated spawn platform) in the ready up stage and I was not teleported back to within the locked area when the final countodwn started, which in theory could lead to being able to get on point at 15:00 mark.

SAB is back! [Merged]

Kecal.3964

SAB is back. It’s Super Adventure Festival time! Check you mail and head to Rata Sum to take part!

Enjoy.

NOOOO!!!! What will I now do when I’m bored? The SAB thread always had something to amuse me, now it is dead

On a more serious note, nice to see it back, would love to see if those “won’t play GW2 till SAB is back” will actually come back. Will definitely give it another try (did not enjoy it that much my fist time round, but got much better at JPs since).

Also do we know how long will it be here for? Never min till 19th found now in patch noted.

irrelevant but interesting question

Kecal.3964

Well you have to remember not all of that is profit.

Even Evon Gnashblade has to pay his staff, all those TP locations are manned 24/7 by 1-3 agents, then there’s the weapons specialists (and anyone with specialist in their job title is going to be earning more), the Armor and Weapon traders, and that skritt who’s sorting the warehouse.

Plus they’ve got to feed the pigeons, and now parrots, ravens, griffons, quaggans and who knows what else. (They’re probably getting a good deal on the ghosts though, I think they feed mainly on despair and inconsolable rage so a few minutes of free time to hang around the Mystic Forge probably does it.)

Don’t forget about compensations to families of all the black lion summonable merchants, who die withing 15 min from summoning instabilities.

Lost has 4 while Gilded has 5 nodes

Kecal.3964

I have to say that Gilded Hollow only sometimes has 5 nodes, one of the plant ones seems to appear and disappear (doesn’t even show up as gathered version, just completely not there); could that be happening in Lost?

2 hours wait. 8 mins play time.

You know there is a whole set of other events before/after that fight? ANet can’t help you if you decide to ignore content.

Personal Story - Skipped every mission in Orr

Going to add I seem to be suffering from this issue as well on one of my characters.

I contacted support about it and I have to say I am disappointed with their reply of “send in-game bug report (which was the first thing I did) and post to forums” not even a link to this or any related thread.

The rewards seem to be a “bit broken”.
We seem to be getting a daily reward on each character we log on to.

Portal for BWE1?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

It’s interesting they market and consider this the first BWE, when we already had a BWE for staff revenants. :P

That was called a test weekend this is the first official beta weekend.

If you read between the lines in the PoI with Collin you get that that one wasn’t planned and basically just publicity thing (feedback was just a bonus).

Actually you can no longer get the refund for accounts bought since 23ed January that had a deadline of 31st July. You can still get the extra character slot for pre-announcment account.

Stealth Nerfs...are they real?

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

They definitely do stealth fixes to exploits, since they don’t want exploits to be known.
As for buffs/nerfs we can’t tell.

[Suggestion] QoL Feature for Guild Leaders

Since they are introducing the ability to see guild chat of any/all guild you’re in when the expansion hits, I think this would be redundant.

Issues with 7/28 Build

Posted by: Kecal.3964

Kecal.3964

I downloaded the launcher update (~6MB) and now every time I try to lunch the game I get this (I have used the report to ArenaNet option).

Not sure if it’s to do with this build or something gone wrong on my machine (first time I have this problem in nearly 2 years).

Courtyard- a conquest map

First off- mode preference really nice idea.

However why is there no tick-box for Courtyard? It doesn’t belong in either category, but not 3rd option for people who like/don’t like it.
