My sonic tunelling tool (equipped when the Feature Pack went live) is gone (naturally) but I do not have the darn endless consumable item for it. Should I submit a ticket? Or is this a known problem?
The gambling is the aspect of GW2 that I hate the most. Not because I don’t like the ‘excitement’… It’s because it is the only way to get the pretties.
So, keep the gambling. Seriously. BUT give me a ‘can buy anything from the event ticket’ for participating in the event. And another for doing something major during the event. Then sprinkle the goodies around via RNG mechanics.
Thus I can get one shiny for being here and playing the game (dead games aren’t full of people, and perception is everything in the crowded MMO market. Aside from the fact that the game is social-cooperative and needs lots of people to thrive.) and if I participate in the story fully, I can get a matched set of pistols or daggers. Or whatever.
This would be better and still give an incentive to gamble (to get more) but not exclude the folks who can’t get the @%#@^# ticket to drop.

Now, why does this work? IMVU. That silly chat client is the shining example of people wanting a virtual closet full of stuff to play dress up. Newsflash: Gamers like to do that too, to both greater and lesser degree, depending on the gamer. The costume contests in City of Heroes (gone but not forgotten) were a huge draw and a lot of fun.
Exclusivity is a hollow and bitter nothing compared to giving players the chance to make their characters look cool and unique. (lots of options and dyes can make for some cool looks in astronomical combinations) Crafting your character’s look and checking out what others have done in that direction is far more ‘fun’ than “ooh look he has a rare bit of gear.”
I’d rather like people see my character and say “WOW… look at that! I’ve never seen someone look like that before and it’s badass/gorgeous/amazing” …. because I found a set of gear from 6 different sets that works together and dyed it creatively to bring it all together.
Once I realized what a limited palette there was in GW2 for gear, I more or less stopped looking at other characters. I checked out the armor sets online in a gallery and then tuned them out in-game. Because there is so little it is just boring.
Creativity = Fun
Creativity > Exclusivity
Ok. I’m upset. Today is the last day of the Molten Facility. I’m running around getting ready for my big push to get the dungeon done (two days ago, my client crashed and I spent two days on ‘repair’ attempts before I finally just deleted the .dat file and let it re-download the 17 gig file.
And at around 2 pm CST the dungeon is GONE. O.o
head explodes
Guys. How about some &!@#%^&# consistency. Why not just reset things at the normal ‘daily’ reset times so we KNOW when it’s going to happen???!
I feel like you yanked the rug out of me. Frustration piled on frustration.
I’ve done everything else in this storyline and I want to finish it! @&#^$@&#^$*(#
NPC and Chest missing on Anvil Rock server as well…
Noticed something. The vet spawns ON THE RAMP. and cannot be lured or knocked down to where he used to spawn (in the strange vat room). If you move out of his line-of-sight… the vet resets. He also cannot be knocked down the ramp by any power or ability, he hits an invisible wall.
The chest and NPC might be linked to a trigger of the vet dying in the strange vat room and the vet cannot get there. Maybe? But this all seems odd. Hope this helps.

Anvil Rock server: Behemoth is bugged. No Oakheart spawns at all and brenda and Matthias are hanging out, but nothing going on.
