Thought I’d add my guild emblem image generator experiment thing to this list:
http://gw2-emblemer.appspot.com/emblem.get?guild_name=ArenaNet
http://gw2-emblemer.appspot.com/emblem.get?guild_id=4BBB52AA-D768-4FC6-8EDE-C299F2822F0F
… and that’s about all it does.

just wondering if you could share the code of this api? (and more specifically the part of how you linked the right images to the right id’s and gave it the correct colors? That’s be awesome^^)

dc/lag compensation

there are always problems, but when it happens to people that never experience this at a critical moment with an event like tequatl, it can be very furiating… I was in teq yesterday and I would have gotten the reward, but for the first time ever I got a random dc… Let’s just say I’m not pleased… all I want is my achievement reward, the chest is of less importance to me, but all the time spent into trying to get in the main server in time, and waiting for the event to start, just to dc out of nowhere just before the end isn’t what I call fun… A way to compensate this is to let the server remember what server you were in and give you 60s with a reserved spot to get back in… they don’t need to go and give people free rewards, but at least make it so that if you DO dc and log back in, you don’t get thrown in an overflow…

Game Crashed for the first time @ Tequatl

I am furious to say the least… my game never just randomly drops out, never! but when I was battling Tequatl on Gandara (which just got defeated) I just randomly drop out at 45% health left and could not get back in… So yea, I missed out on the achievement, chest and all the other things that come along with it because somehow your server decided to just drop me… Please Anet and GW2 staff, tell me you can do smth for me because Tequatl has been infuriating me ever since you changed this boss (and I’ve never even done the old one) and now when I did get in the main server for a change and they defeat him I get a dc I’ve never experienced before… So again, please tell me you can compensate this, because I do not want to keep wasting so much of my time to find out that I a) can’t get in the main server because it’s full… b) get a dc at a critical time and aren’t able to get back in…

Might I add to this that the fact that this boss is soo darn hard but still loads of people come to do the event, most of us get thrown into the overflow servers, which are a frigging pain to do this types of events in… I’ve tried tequatl 5 times now, and all 5 times I was in a Overflow server, and only once did we barely not get it to 75%… reason: no interaction due to people not even speaking the language and thus not being able to go for a strategy… if you want servers to enjoy this, either scale down the difficulty by a little bit, not much, but just a bit, or make sure you can actually always go and play on your own server with a large enough group of friends/ guildies, so that organizing is easier… That, or make sure commanders can make wvw sized parties… that would help with organizing everything a lot better… Also, just wondering, what build would be suited to bring him down? I have a soldier build with some beserker parts (haven’t gotten full soldier yet) with healing shouts and for this event a banner as elite… I am a warrior…
Edit: OHKO pods… wow, you all die instantly of that? I have at least 300HP and 1200HP left after a pod pops…, but that aside, it’s true, server caps is really ruining what could be the most awesome raid ever: open world raiding!

Hello ANet

I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I couldn’t really found a better board for this so feel free to move it in case it’s missplaced…

I have a question… In the Gem Store it’s possible to buy armor skins (krytan and others) and I was wondering if ever we’ll be able to buy the dungeon armor purely as a skin, rather than having to go through the trouble of farming multiple dungeons over and over again to have the stats of, for example, Citadel of Flame for the beserker stats and Twilight Arbor for the looks and having to having to buy gems (or having saved up enough transmutation stones) to transfer the stats of CoF Armor to the skin of TA armor…
Another example is Arah… great looking armor, but almost no groups can be found to actually run the kitten dungeon enough to get the needed tokens…
As far as I can tell one could aproach a possible solution by either selling the skins (no stats) on the gemstore, or make the skins available with tokens, but less than the actual armor with stats… Or you could just leave everything as is… But I’ve noticed that certain dungeons don’t get run because there are other dungeons that give same stated armor and weapons that aren’t as hard, or shorter to complete and so these dungeons get left out.
So you could make them buyable (through gems or less tokens for skin) or leave the system as is, either way is fine by me, although I prefer the former option… I’ve been playing GW2 since the Beta’s and I still love this game, but I think it might be an interesting feature to add, and I’m sure a lot of players won’t mind paying some real cash to get that wanted look without having to continously farming different dungeons to get that desire filled, I know I would
