Guild Wars 2

I was playing Revenant in WvW today and while being underwater I realized that we have another legend that doesn’t have underwater skills at all. What a shame :/. They’ve created so many new skills for other classes (looking at you, Weaver!) and somehow deliberately avoided the Revenant.

Firebrand’s axe auto-attack #3 animation could use a bit of polishing. After auto-attack #2 when guardian positions himself to perform auto-attack #3 from above his head, a stutter occurs and it looks like a tiny part of the animation is missing. Here’s a slow-motion recording that depicts the issue.

I know that this might not be a major issue, but that small skip in the animation makes the attack chain lose its smoothness.

When using tomes, guardian loses all visual effects that come from his legendary weapons which is kind of sad. Juggernaut’s armor effect disappears, there are no footstep effects. I wonder what happens with Aurora’s effect?

When you are idle and enter combat by using any of the tomes, Juggernaut’s armor gfx effect will be applied for a second and then it will disappear.

When you equip any of the tomes and are standing still, guardian will play idle animation during which he’s throwing an invisible weapon in the air and then catching it. Looks strange.

There’s really no reason to hide guardian’s weapons while he’s using the tomes, it looks bad, we lose all legendary effects and idle animation looks strange.

Just made and attempt in Iron Marches and nobody in the entire squad got the achievement. Anomaly died from condis while running away with 5% of HP from the 1st location.

What I meant by comparing them to kits was that they are similar because we can’t see our weapon while using them.

Can we please keep our currently equipped weapon in our hand while we are using the tomes? I know that these work kind of like kits do for engineers, but looking at current animations of pages floating around the guardian I see no reason why the weapon should disappear from our hand. Let’s not repeat the engineer mistake with them never seeing their weapons because of kits.

Got the same issue. This seems unintuitive and there should at least be one more step added in the achi description.

It’s not a bug. I was also missing book 2. There are two books lying on top of each other. You actually have to click the right one. One of them if you click it will have a special action (F) “Check book” and the other one “Thumb Through”.

Juggernaut armor changing effects are not visible in the equipment preview window when the weapon option is set to “wielded”.

I didn’t have any problems until today. Right now I have ping between 3500 – 4500. My ISP is UPC, Poland.

On my 2nd playthrough on an alt Aurene got stuck next to the first Ooze Generator and she couldn’t attack it. Trying to go away from the generator so that she could reposition didn’t help, she didn’t follow me as she was stuck.
Since without her aid it’s impossible to destroy it, I had to restart the mission.

Issue occurred only once.
I played a charr warrior.

Screenshot attached.

I’d like to see Phoenix weapon skins available again.

Same here. I killed the Guardian twice and didn’t get the achievement. I did get the rewards and a golden medal, though. Would still prefer the achi, though.

Day 3 and she finally said yes! Somehow she worked fine today and gave me my token.

I have the same issue. 2 days in a row Katren doesn’t accept my item and I can’t get Provisioner Tokens from her. She acts like I have already given her requested item and she shows me the stuff she’s selling right away.

The raid team has done a great job so far delivering varied bosses and mechanics. I absolutely love the difficulty level – raids are neither too hard nor too easy to complete. I really hope there will be more of them in the future after wing 3, cause this is one of the best pieces of content that we got in GW2. Keep up the great work guys!

And BTW maybe just the loot could be better and I don’t mean the drops themselves but the skins and stuff that you can obtain for tokens. Since Gorseval finally dropped me a Ghostly Infusion and I bought full ascended viper’s armor I don’t really have anything to do with tokens anymore maybe aside from getting more ascended armors for some of my alts. I’d love to see more cool skins.

Same bug happens with Nevermore, the feathers animation on your arm disappears randomly.

Same here. Had 3 crashes in AB in less than 20 minutes.

Yeah, same here. I have a Super staff skin from previous SAB unlocked (and and applied using wardrobe) and collection doesn’t update. Here’s a screen: http://i.imgur.com/uXHwpbd.jpg

Pros:
1. Gliding in central Tyria is absolutely fantastic.
2. Shatterer update is very good! I wish it was more of a Teq/Wurm fight when it comes to the difficulty, but it’s fun and refreshing.
3. Squad changes are really good.
4. Show All Usable Objects check box – thank you!
5. Lunar festival. Same as always, but at least we have some APs to get!

Cons:
1. All backpack skins introduced in this patch are just ugly. I can’t decide which one of them is the worst. Only the one for completing Shatterer’s meta is acceptable, but nowhere near “I want to wear this”.
2. Shatterer’s break bar is unbreakable so far. It doesn’t go below 50%. Even with co-ordinated CCs on TS with ~50 ppl we couldn’t break it even once.
3. Eldvin Monastery Brew of the Month Club is a total copy paste from World of Warcraft. It even has the same name. I don’t get what’s the point of it other than spending 10 gold for some AP.
4. There are some bugs ih the Shatterer fight:
-Very often you don’t get credit for destroying healing crystals (achievement doesn’t progress).
-50% of the time jump pads don’t give me the grenade/medkit bundle and I’m high in the sky and can’t do anything.
-Not a bug, but QOL stuff – ppl encased in his crystals are being released too quickly to even target them. Doing this achievement is a pain because of that.

Still bugged. Here’s how I did it:

1) I avoided both sets of traps.
2) Killed the wolves, met Taimi.
3) Did the part with 4 saurian bones and talked with the NPC.
4) Went back to trigger only the 2nd set of traps and killed the mobs. Achievement buff disappeared.
5) Went back to the room with Saurian bones.
6) Achievement unlocked.
7) YAAAY!

I just did the same thing today. Thanks for this thread guys, helped me get back on track.

EDIT: It works now, but you need to have all other items when coming to Ogden in Durmand’s Priory.

My Infused Ring of Red Death is not recognized by the mystic forge and I can’t upgrade it to add another agony infusion slot. I was able to upgrade my Crystalline Band ring though.

I’m not the only person with this bug in my guild and people have it randomly happening with either infused Ring of Red Death or Crystalline Band.

I have exactly the same problem.

I also lost one armor piece cause it got soulbound on a wrong character . Salvage FTW.

Same here. I’m not sure about the points, but achievements themselves are missing from the hero panel UI.

Same here. Our guild had problems with getting credits for Wolf rush. Some people didn’t get rewards, some got them TWICE! First after crossing the line and then later when the whole event was finished. Happened to me on my 2nd account. Some people weren’t given credit for crossing the finish line for some time and we were stuck at 14/15. Running through the line and backwards multiple times solved the problem.

For Quaggans my 2nd account didn’t get reward at all.

Normally we did all 4 guild missions (challenge, bounty, puzzle and rush) in 35 minutes. Today it took more than an hour despite content being all the same and nothing new but bugs :/.

Pact Airship Wreckage Hero Point in Verdant Brink is bugged and even though I have unlocked it as can be seen on the screenshot, the icon on the map say it’s still not completed. It also doesn’t count towards map progression on the world map.

Same here, no reward for a character with 100% map completion in core Tyria.

I just found the last item to Rev chest collection on my Guardian and yeah it got soulbound :/.

My mastery progress bar in the bottom of the screen very often shows incorrect mastery leveling progress. Few times already I have maxed a mastery, but didn’t know about it, cause on the UI it seems that there is still grey bar left to be filled. This way I have lost XP because I didn’t train the completed mastery.

Please take a look at the screenshot below which depicts the issue. You can clearly see in the hero panel that I have 100% of the mastery trained while in the bottom there is still a lot of XP to be gained

Same here. Did it twice, it’s bugged.

Here’s some of my feedback:

1. No achievement points equals lack of incentive to do the event at all for me. I actually have 80% of the rewards offered by the NPC. I’m just farming for the gloves and I’m done. I’m also one of those achievement obsessed people and was really disappointed that I can’t get any APs.

2. To get the stacks needed for the max amount of blooms possible (20 for tier 4) means to cheat a bit and play against other players in tagging wars. It’s physically impossible to get max reward while doing the event in a proper way – you are forced to jump in, tag mobs and run to the next event, leaving the current one to other people to finish. I just do 10 events every time to get tier 3 and then I go AFK for the remaining 10-15 minutes. I’m never sure if I will be able to tag 10 more events for tier 4, so I don’t need that stress just to get 5 more blooms.

3. Mobs and champions give no XP, loot or karma. This is really bad. Mordrem should at least have a chance to drop some extra blooms.
For new players XP from mobs should help them level up. You advertised it as an event for new players and they can’t get XP (aside from event completion reward), see the irony?

4. The amount of blooms you can get during the events is too low. I get it that these were trading post items for gems, but still just few days to get them with this drop rate is not enough.

5. The event itself is really boring. No plot, no NPCs, no dialogues, no achievements, no drops from mobs. Even the rewards for blooms are not that interesting if you’ve bought the items from the gem store or did the past living story events. This is just recycled content and looks like it was made poorly over the weekend with minimum effort (which I’m sure is not true, but that’s the impression people get).

6. Bugged launch was pretty bad. You know it, we know it, nothing to add here.

P.S. While the event is atrociously bad, I still love Guild Wars 2, I’ve pre-purchased the ultimate version of the expansion, loved BWEs and I’m with you guys. Just give us better toys to play with, pretty please!

P.S.2 When in doubt remember, Marionette was the thing done right!

Sword is actually used in 5 hammer guardians dungeon meta build and shield is very useful on many occasions, especially in Fractals.

I’ve made another attempt at the achievement with my guildies. This time I didn’t enter the room at all while my guildies finished the ooze font puzzle. I still didn’t get the achievement. No idea what to do now :/.

Yeah, I also did it with guildies once and 3 out of 5 ppl got it. I’ll probably try to leech it.

I can’t get the Stay Cool achievement since the launch of Aetherpath in TA. It’s the last achievement there for me, I’ve completed all the other ones and I’ve recently tried 3 times to get this one. Each time I never touch the flames on the ground, never go into them, never had a burning condition etc. I always attack the fire elementals with my ranged weapon and after the puzzle is done, I don’t get the achievement. I know there are other ppl who had the same problem. I’ve tried as a warrior and guardian.

I love the idea of a new shout and Feel My Wrath looks great. I almost never used the tomes anyway.

If they were to implement that, there would need to be a toggle on/off button to avoid clutter.

When you loot items and click on their icons in the right part of the UI, they don’t open the inventory anymore. It was working fine before today’s patch. Clicking gold still opens the wallet, though.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Loot any mob.
2. Notice items in the right part of the screen being shown.
3. Click on any item’s icon.
4. Notice inventory doesn’t open.
5. Click copper/silver icon, notice that wallet still opens properly.

BUMP – bug is still present. Didn’t get my chest today.

9 months have passed and the bug is still present. I still don’t get the Golden Chest most of the times when we kill all 3 heads.

This is amazing! Arena should really hire this guy for the job.

I checked it again and it’s not the longbow that’s corrupting the stealth animation, it’s Fractal Capacitor.

Sorry for the confusion.

This is a horrible change. The old system was so much better as it allowed me to buy the exact number of gems that I needed.

The concept presented by Dawntree looks like the best solutiom IMHO.

Tempest longbow stealth animation is corrupted when ranger uses Hunter’s Shot.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Boot the title.
2. Choose ranger.
3. Take a bow with Tempest longbow skin.
4. Use Hunter’s Shot on any enemy.
5. Notice the animation issue.

Before the patch if you entered equipment screen and clicked for example the weapon slot, the UI on the left would filter all items in your inventory according to that slot and would show you only weapons you could equip into that slot. Same with armor, if you clicked the helmet slot the game would show you only helmets from your inventory that you can equip at this time into that slot.

Right now no matter which slot you click, the UI on the left doesn’t get updated and doesn’t filter the items accordingly. Instead of that you get to see all the items from your inventory, which makes no sense.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. Load any character.
2. Open hero panel and choose equipment section.
3. Click on your character’s weapon slot.
4. Notice that instead of only relevant items (weapons you can equip in that slot) being shown, all your inventory contents are displayed in the left part of the equipment UI including armors, opals, gathering tools etc.
5. Do the same for any armor slot, gathering tool slot etc. and notice same effect.
6. Try to remember that before the patch, it was working correctly and was awesome.
