Guild Wars 2

In the announcements, it says that the required achievements for “The Dragon Bash Experience” has been reduced from 10 to 8…yet…on my screen here..still says that I need 10…and I have just gotten the 8 with…no wings….any word on this?

Just opened at 12:36 server time on Fort Aspenwood

From what I’ve seen (We do this path frequently), the veterans will only spawn if one of your party members DIES. When they do, one spawns, and then I believe when they respawn another will spawn as well…take close eye to not die…strategy my friends, strategy…we never have to deal with the veterans…melee stands on the stairs behind him and range attacks him from the top rafters

yes..he’s standing on a raised area before the teleporter

you gain access to clocktower and rumblus by talking to the guy in the beginning, and selecting i would like to participate

head through the door…you can head to ramble, clock tower, or labyrinth based on your choice from the “reaper” looking dude

able to enter in queensdale as well

1. Run elevated command prompt.
2. Type netsh winsock reset > ENTER:
3. The following message should be seen: “Successfully reset the Winsock Catalog. You must restart the computer in order to complete the reset.”
4. Restart computer.

I actually didnt have to restart…but this did fix for me after initial “hiccup”. If you’re still having issues, try the above

Robert Hrouda.1327:

we’re very aware of it (and as a ranger am eternally frustrated by it), and working hard on resolving the problem. I don’t have an ETA for you though.

Thanks for at least recognizing and acknowledging that it is a problem..hope it gets fixed soon..also..glad to see progression made on dungeons based on community input

thx for the tip..ill try that next time

No matter what weap/skill i seem to use, still am unable to hit the burrows in AC…any word on a fix for this?

Playing as a thief, and no matter what skill i use, i cannot hit the burrows on path 3 in the lovers crypt. Either says “miss” or “out of range” no matter where i stand…any word on a possible fix for this

there will be server maint tonight…hopefully (cross your fingers), that will fix and reset them

If doing a suicide line, i usually sit back as a “failsafe” with Shadow Refuge ready to stealth Magg for 10 seconds…that is a huge time available to save him and remove aggro from him…if you’re actually inside killing, as Eve said…smokelord first…but your real bread and butter will be Shadow Refuge, which can be the turning tide in this fight..im a glass cannon, and thats basically all I hope to accomplish in this fight until a heavier member gets back to eat the aggro off of me

at least on aspenwood it was due to an ele rez’ing the NPC out of the event range..unsure about gunnars

also still bugged closed on fort aspenwood :/

imo..i run full dps (power, prec, crit dam), but thats because there is usually some heavy wearer in the group…ill be the first to admit though, im a glass cannon. Although my next set im looking at will prolly move more towards power, prec, and tough…cuz of course, what good does health do for you if the boss hits you for more anyway

i do the 1 in routine..and myself(thief) always stays back as a failsafe…the more you learn your toon, the more you learn how to do things properly..myself(the failsafe) always stays back in case we all get downed…i use my aoe stealth shroud to save magg for 10 seconds and remove him from all aggro, which is plenty of time IMO…this also follows the “suicide line”, which is better than exploiting around..this isnt like any other MMO’s..you will die, and you cant solo everything…if you dont want to run that risk, dont jump into the instances

poison is the big one to reduce his healing capability

not saying this is true or not…but at least with our dps group as a gauge all of us had close to 3400 attack and at least 2500 power…any idea what your group was rolling in there with?

its not that hard to kite for 3 mins…why do you have all of your people in there dying at the same time?

he is fairly easy….if he starts to regen-out of your dps amount..the lowest dps of the group focus’ on crystals…took him out 2 times no prob without crystal control….i will admit that it is a HEAVY dps-sided path

noticed this happens a lot when an ele rez’s an NPC outside of their “event zone”…which is what happened on Fort Aspenwood on the 28th at about noon CST

Sent in a bug ticket…but hopefully more can be explained here. At approx 12 pm cst (9/28) as I was informed, Razen died during the event outside of the Citadel. An ele res’d him with their skill, and now he is outside the event area, with no event, permanently stuck there. Instance has been bugged shut ever since…any word as to a hopeful reset of his location?

the meta events are where the heart of this lies…take Tequatl, Claw of Jormag, and Shatterer for example..sometimes there are 50+ people at these

we did it twice the other day..one time was a lot easier than the other…but we communicated and saved all our cd’s for ~35%…once he started to slow down..one of the lower dps goes after the crystals..other than that he’s fairly straight forward and by no means impossible…well at least now he’s impossible on Fort Aspenwood cuz the entrance is bugged shut -.-

so we should expect this to be fixed on mon? at least with my 2 token reward we finished and i left the instance via the “popped up door” above my mini map…and the full reward screen popped up..got my ~160k xp…but only 2 tokens

I also did a dungeon path for the first time yesterday…and only got 2 tokens for a full run..but this was in CoF…from what I’ve been reading…its game wide and not limited to one specific instance

got 2 here on a CoF run that i did on the first time for the day…no fix is apparent until monday according to some other forums either

there is a /lfg option which will put you into a looking for party portion under your contacts section…hit y, 2nd option down

dont feel bad…guess how many tokens i got on my first run through of a path? go ahead..guess….2…..yup..i have a total of 72 tokens in my inventory rofl…and i had 70 prior to that run

just hope this is fixed soon so can get back into legit running groups without worry

i dont understand really why people go over the wall..im tired of getting stuck in groups that actually exploit and wont do it the right way..i mean honestly..is it so hard to go in one at a time and kite to keep magg alive and have people (thiefs specifically) stealth magg once he gets low on health? the “suicide line” is easy to get past that part and its not really that difficult

also cant join into instances together or help with personal stories

May have already been discussed, but anyone else having problems with people showing up in the same map when they’re clearly there? or for instance im in Timberline Falls at the moment, yet it still says im in Dredgehaunt?

announced in game

maintenance….announced 1h ago they would be taking the servers down

Just an FYI..if you were one that exploited the karma weapons could be a reason your banned…or for botting…any of these could be reasons..I see a lot of people afk’ing at event chains and ppl asking if they’re there and with no response they get reported for botting…these are things that may happen

Cannot continue in my personal story with the quest posted above….I’m unable to participate in the drinking contest to fulfill the story
