Guild Wars 2

I have more than one of each because I didn’t know I wouldn’t be able to do anything with them once the living story ended. I actually took part and used the item for its purpose. Now I can’t sell them. Whereas someone who just happened to collect a bunch and didn’t turn any in was able to profit.

That’s all I was trying to point out; that it’s almost as if I am being penalized (by not being able to sell my buttons) for participating.

When the living story to vote for Kiel or Gnashblade ended, support reminder tokens could be sold to vendors. But we can’t sell representative buttons. I think it should be changed. I made a decent amount of money on support reminder tokens I had left after the living story, but now it’s as if I am being penalized by not being able to sell my representative buttons.

When fighting Scarlet’s minions I often get rare and exotic deluxe gear boxes. But the thing is I get two “different” rare ones and two different exotic ones. What I mean is I get two stacks of each (2 rare and 2 exotic). Sometimes I have a stack of 1 and a stack of 5, etc. No, I am not confusing rare with exotic. Like I said, sometimes I have 2 stacks of each.

Is this object unidentifiable from the perspective of my character or from a game programming perspective? Just thought I’d mention it.

That’s not the case for me. As my edit says (which is in your quote so I assume you read…), when I go back to this one tower (I only checked the one), the chest now shows as open before I get to the top.

I’m having a similar problem. I’ve climbed four towers so far; the two in Queensdale and the two in Kessex Hills, but I have received credit for only three.

Before I climbed the tower near the Meadow’s Waypoint in Kessex Hills, I stood at the bottom, looked up, and when I moused over the chest I saw the writing saying Magnificent Chest, so to me it means I can open it. I then triggered the event, which was to kill the queen’s champion. While fighting it along with one or two others I died. I was then revived and we finished fighting the queen’s champion. When it was defeated we all ran to the tower. Someone made it to the top before me, I heard the sound of a chest opening but when I got to the top it was already open, despite not being open earlier!

I have tried doing these four towers repeatedly in the hopes of it working but it won’t!

Edit: When I go back to the tower near Meadow’s Waypoint the chest is now showing as open before and after I complete the event . So I guess I won’t be able to get the chest from it…

Today I did The Collapsed Observatory Jumping Puzzle and I encountered what I think are two bugs.

Bug #1

I got to the end of the jumping puzzle, got the achievement, and then I hopped down to fight the veteran guarding the splendid chest. While fighting the veteran I died. Since I am a warrior I used the 3 skill (I forget the name of it right now) to come back to life. Whenever I used this skill in the past I would stay alive for a few seconds. No matter how many monsters I killed or corpses I looted I would die. After using the 3 skill I killed the veteran, then started opening the grand chest, looted it, and I didn’t die. Not that I’m complaining, but I’m pretty sure I should have died, so there is bug #1.

Bug #2

I’m not sure if I got it from the veteran or the grand chest, but I got a support reminder token. This living story is over and I can’t cast my vote. That’s bug #2. Nice waste of a rare drop

Thanks guys.

If so, where? The wiki says to find Moto in the Creator’s Commons area in Rata Sum, but I can’t find him.

More importantly, I want to know if I can spend my remaining baubles somewhere.

Thanks!

When I chop a tree I see an axe for my character. When I play with a friend and they chop a tree I see them use a mining pick.

Didn’t know that… although how secret is it really when you can just go on the wiki? I was only saying to add a description so people don’t have to go to the wiki.

And if that’s the case, the description should convey that. “Mysterious effects. User be warned”. Or whatever…

This thread can serve as a general thread for all items ingame missing descriptions. Just list the item missing the description ingame.

-Cold Potion (rare)

Ingame description of this achievement is: “Acquire 40 skill points from skill challenges or leveling with a character already at level 80”.

I get progress towards this achievement when playing a character that is not level 80.

Thanks! Guess it’s not a bug and just unclear when you see it for the first time.

Today I opened an Achievement Chest and inside that were two PvP Achievement Chests. According to this link, inside the PvP Achievement Chests were a total of 12 PvP weapons and/or armors. After opening all my chests I clicked the gear in the inventory and then “deposit collectibles”. All the PvP items disappeared except for an exotic PvP Golden Harpoon Gun. When I then looked at it I noticed it was instantly “soulbound” and not “soulbound on use” like all other exotics I’ve found. Is that normal? I’m not a PvP player so I don’t know if this is the usual case.

On another note, I now can’t find my deposited PvP items in my bank…

It would be a good idea then to describe that there are two fees.

Maybe once you post an item you get a confirmation dialog box saying there will be a 10% fee deducted if the item sells, do you want to continue, y/n.

Since when? I don’t remember there being two fees a few weeks ago…

And where in the trading post screens is this communicated?

I have an item I want to sell for 57 copper. Listing price is 3, and projected profit is 51 copper. It is as if I am being charged the listing price twice…

If there are no hidden fees and projected profit = sale price – listing fee, then there is a problem with it.

Maybe 3 copper isn’t much, but when you sell items for more, being charged 2x the listing price makes a difference.

I sold a few items and every time my trade profit increased by the amount of the projected profit and not sale price – listing fee.

Hey man, check out the thread on my guild here. Hope all is well!

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/guilds/guilds/Ehmry-Bay-Sentenced-to-Life/first#post219990

I started a guild on Ehmry Bay this weekend. Small guild right now, looking to make it bigger. Since you’re looking to start a guild, you’ll be able to do lots of stuff with us instead of just being a minion in a huge established guild.

Home World: Ehmry Bay
Guild Name: Sentenced to [Life]
Guild Website: none yet
In-Game Contact: Ender Muad Dib
Focus: Increasing our ranks and helping each other out.
Quick Notes: New guild, looking for friendly players.

Hi everyone,

I’d like to invite you all to come and join me in Sentenced to [Life], a brand new guild in the world Ehmry Bay.

Who Can Join?

Everyone is welcome! We don’t care if you spent years playing GW1 or are new to the Guild Wars series. Level 1 or level 80, you’re welcome to join. We accept players who can only play 1 hour per week or players who play 5+ hours a day. This is something that will never change, regardless of whether this guild is 1 member or 100+ members. We will NEVER ask you to invest x hours per day or per week. We understand that you play when you have the time and it’s to relax. Whether your priority is school, work, friends, etc, and you’re left with 1 hour per week to play GW2, that’s not a problem.

If you want to join, whisper me ingame or leave a post here with your character name and the next time I’m on I’ll send you an invite.

Current Goals

The most important thing for us is for everyone to have fun. Since we are just starting out we want to focus on increasing our ranks and helping each other out. Whether this is helping with quests, crafting some better items for you, or whatever else you need, we’re here to help you.

Looking For

Think you know something about GW2? Maybe you’re great at PvP player, or maybe you know crafting inside out and how to get those top secret recipes. We’re looking for members to fill the following roles. If you think you fit one, PM me or whisper me ingame and we can talk about it.

-PvE
-PvP
-WvW
-Crafting
-Map Exploration

Guild Rules

In addition to the game rules such as no hacking/cheating, I expect everyone to follow these rules;

-No racism
-No sexual harassment
-No religious discrimination

See you ingame!
-Ender Muad Dib

I agree, if you are in a party you should definitely stick together when travelling between areas of the world map.

I don’t get much time to play with my friends and when we do have time, we spend half of it waiting to get into the same world (and not different overflows). Party members should always stay together. Either in instances or moving from one area of the world map to the next. It should be an automatic feature.

This is exactly what I am talking about…

Last night around 10pm (GMT-5) I played and had to do a download between 40 and 50MB.

Today I loaded GW2 around 1:30pm (GMT-5) and had to do another download between 40 and 50MB.

If we assume that “game status updates” are patches, well the most recent game status update was on September 10, 2012. Why did I have to do two downloads since then?

It’s getting really annoying to have to wait 10 minutes or so every day to play the game, and not everyone gets unlimited downloads/uploads with their ISP. If I play once per day and have to do this mystery download every day, that’s 1200-1500MB (assuming it’s always between 40 and 50MB which isn’t right since I’ve seen larger downloads). And that’s not counting the data sent back and forth while playing.

I would appreciate it if someone from the GW team could explain this. No offense to other players who try to explain this, but they have no idea whether it’s a patch or not as it seems that there is no patch news being released, only “game status updates”.

Like I said, I can understand having to download updates, but in the launcher there isn’t news about a patch/update and yet there’s a download. I also understand that the game is new and updates will be released, but to have to download 50MB each time seems odd. Today the download was about 50MB, I don’t remember the previous amounts.

At the bottom of the launcher I see Downloading xxxxxMB (xxkb/sec). Then the launcher disappears and a new one appears and again at the bottom I see a red progress bar and above the red progress bar it says;

xx% Downloading: xx.xxMB (xxKB/sec) Files remaining: xx

I checked the properties of my gw2 shortcut, under the tab “Shortcut”, the field “Target” says “C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” with nothing after the "" like -repair.

I would like to know how come every time I launch GW2 there is a large download. I can understand if an update is released and I have to download an update, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.

In the last 3-4 days I have had a large download each time I launch GW2 and in the launcher there isn’t news of updates posted each of the last 3-4 days.
