Guild Wars 2

Looking for an open Balthazar. Will tip. Thx.

OMG! TY Soooo much! 250 Obsidian Shards in da bank. =]

Any NA Shards got a Temple of Balthazar open?

This will remain a problem until some sort of ‘mega-server’ technology is invented. Imagine, a single sever that everyone can play on…together!

This will pass once players realize that anyone can get endless achievement points by simply standing in LA and salvaging T1 mats. Just because a player has 5k achievement points doesn’t mean he’s some sort of dungeon god…he may have simply used a kittenload of basic salvaging kits!

Sorry to anyone that feels I spilled the beans here.

Check out my edit in my previous post about resetting the modem. Hopefully help someone! Good luck.

This is just painful…I’ve tried multiple ‘fixes’ that I’ve seen around on these forums. Then, I got excited once I noticed today’s maintenance patch….but low and behold, the client can’t connect, and continues to time out. Like now, the client reads ‘Downloading 156kb (0kb/sec)’

edit My ‘repair’ client is also stuck with a similar ‘Downloading 290kb (0kb/sec)’ message.

I think tomorrow, I’ll try to completely uninstall, then re-install to see if I can finally shake this bug. Unless, one of you guys have already tried the re-install trick?!

Update: 02.23.2013 I just reset the internet modem by pressing in the little tiny ‘reset’ button. Simply unplugging the modem didn’t help, but pressing that little button did the trick!

Did you start noticing an issue after the client updated?

I’ve been effected by these disconnection and error messages virtually nonstop for over a week now, since last client update. I’ve been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what’s wrong with my machine/internet etc. Glad I found this thread, but I really need a fix so that I can play the game. Well it be fixed for the upcoming content update?

Barpat.3516:

I didn’t want to be rude.

Sorry if I hurt you.

I enhanced your suggestion with a countdown. Which I think it’s better.

Loll, no worries! Like I said, I appreciate your thought and I could have been clearer with my OP.

Barpat.3516:

The reset is the same as dungeons reset.

Just watch your clock and you will know exactly when the reset will be, with much presition than colors flashing.

If they put a countdown, could be. But not really important.

I appreciate your post, but I put this in the suggestion thread instead of the player helping player thread for a reason. I personally know when the daily resets, I hate it when I have a certain amount of it done but get distracted doing something else, say wvw, or a fotm in which we screwed up on cliffside and then I end up missing my daily!

And with the introduction of laurels, missing a darn near finished daily hurts.

For those players that like the current system, this option could be a toggle under settings.

I think it would be a nice touch if there was some sort of indicator that the is about to reset. Like, at 2 hours the ‘Daily’ text/link at the top right corner of the screen would glow yellow and at 1 hour it would glow/flash/ebb red. Or a more subtle icon, like that annoying exclamation mark on the Black Lion Post icon on the top left part of our screen.

Please upvote if you agree.

Bottom line: Once you commit to a certain gear set, you’re suck.

So, if you want to mat farm, you need a mf set, but then you take that mf set into a fotm: BAM, you’re the guy that dies all the time!

Okay, I want to manage a deep vitality/toughness pool. For dungeons, that’s cool until you want to farm cof…then you’re not welcome, and you’re useless in WvW against a hammer or thief.

When I run my Tanky build into a thief, and get back stabbed to a surprisingly quick death, I wish I could change up my set and run back out there to try again…but outside of food and changing a few traits, I’m stuck.

At least hook a guy up with a wardrobe manager if I have to grind out multiple sets of gear!

Dear Anet,

Since I’m dead, and my party is still fighting the good fight to save Tyria…could I please, I mean PRETTY please not have to deal with the ‘Rotating Camera of Death’!?

Especially since you’ve decided to make it so that we (dead ppl) can’t WP when others are in combat. We don’t want to feel like we’re completely useless by looking at our dead bodies for however long it takes to allow others to exit combat.

I’d much rather the camera remains free for us to ‘point’ and then stay in that position until we move it again.

Pretty please. Thanks for reading and please +1 if you agree.

Thank you for your consideration.

For the chance to reconnect to a disconnected FotM…I’d happily allow 3 GB extra code to be downloaded!!!

‘Players can now reconnect to the Fractals of the Mists if they are disconnected.’

Going for a legendary is a serious commitment to a very serious gold sink. Even if they nerf the cost of a precursor weapon, you’re still looking at spending a pile of gold and time. My first but of advice to you is to plan your ‘attack’. Here’s my first piece of advice:

Open up your MS word, now copy the requirement (list) of your choice weapon found at: http://www.guildwars2guru.com/news/780-the-recipe-for-crafting-your-legendary-including-screenshots/

Now search the TP for the items/mats that you will need and enter the prices onto your ‘shopping list’. Now calculate the cost of gold you’ll need for each section, and then calculate your grand total.

Once you pick yourself up off of the floor, you can then determine what area you want to work on first. I personally did the clovers first.

Good luck, remember to take breaks and try to have fun!

Not sure is it’s only me (hope it is, and there’s a simple fix), but when I attempt to type out what I want to search for via the ‘search box’ for these forums, a few annoying things happen.

For example, I type out to the 4th or 5th character, then I’m sent back to the forum login page. Why?

Another example, by time I get to the 3rd character, some sort of auto-search happens and I’m ‘kicked out’ of the search box in which I was typing.

Not serious, just …. annoying, and it makes me wonder two things;

1) Is it only me?
2) Is there a way for me to turn this feature off?

Thanks, it’s simply called: ‘fractual shield’ and it drops from higher level fracs.

Seen a Charr character in the Lion’s Arch trading post who had a shield that glowed with light blue radiance. At the shields center was a fractal of the Mist prototype capacitor. The shield had an array of of various size stones which also glowed with a light. Does anyone happen to know the name if this shields skin?

Is there a way to turn off the panning camera when you’re dead?

Kaimick.5109:

good I was about to say Fractals is a 5 man raid for all intensive purposes but you realized it, next time use your search function ;-)

Kaimick, please consider linking your Anet Issued forum Police Badge number the next time you find it hard to resist responding to a forum post. Judging from to amount of posting (really wanted to use the word ‘trolling’) that you do on these forums, I figure you must have some sort of police powers.

Lucas Ashrock.8675:

WE have an other thread where a moderator is asking feedback, stick to that one.

Lucas Ashrock….‘Who are you?’ I mean, its easy to spot you as someone who patrols (putting it nicely) these forums quite regularly. But I’m interested in learning who gave you policing powers?!

I’ve made use of ‘taxi’ services found over at gw2lfg. Sometimes its free, other times the guys are looking for tips.

Trungalung.7850:

This is quite a slap in the face to all the players in 20+ Fractals. I’d be kitten if I miss my 20 and 30 daily today.

At least you can participate in those dailies, my friend. I’m being trolled so hard by lvl 10 right now. I’ve joked that my character could easily be lvl 20 by now had it not been for the constant disconnects and silly bugs…but now my little joke has become more and more of a supremely frustrating reality.

Finally! Phew…*faints.

LOLz, certain aspects of the journey were epic and a truck load of fun, like WvW, world exploration and the underestimated, yet important management of the mats/gold/karma.

I’ve linked a few pictures below using the new ‘story’ mode over at Photobucket. Let me know if you guys like the storyboard idea or not. I’m thinking that this ‘story’ feature would work well for showing off the progression of our epic GW2 characters! If a few of you reply back with ‘like’, then I’ll start and maintain a: ‘Share your character’s story via Photobucket Story (a free service)’ thread here on the GW2 forum and over on the GW2 Reddit.

Hope you guys enjoy. I had great fun and made awesome new friends and guildmates during my journey! =)

Landscaper’s Legendary Shield

Temple of Balthazar is open on Northern Shiverpeaks right now! Woop woop.

I’m on ‘Far’ (Northern) Shiverpeaks now, and the Temple is not open at this time. I too am looking for an open Temple, are there any others open that I can server transfer to?

This, aside from the 65G for icy stones, is all I need for my Legendary. =}

Just wanted to add my:
