Guild Wars 2

I’m bumping this since there still here, if this should be moved into the merged thread please do.

Might aswell add my bugs I have found
1.Rifle-Scarlets Prototype Mechanism: no such item exists in her lair to interact with, just chests and page fragments
2.Rifle-Decrypted Weapons Research:At the panel besides the chest it gives you the option but does nothing else, just endlessly press option.
3.Rifle-Asura Experimental Rifle:Cannot interact with weapon rack.
4.Hammer-Cobiah Mariner, Title says Kneel but you must ponder, mis-spelling
5.Harpoon-Armored Fish Tooth, there are no Veteran Armor fish in Malchor’s Leap
If so I want a screenshot from map view.
Only Veteran Armor Fish I know is in Diessa Plateau
6.Shield-Anthology of Villains: To make this item you need ‘Sheets of high Quality paper’, to get this you need to be a scribe, to be a scribe you need guildhall, to get guildhall you need guild plus a lot of gold.
Do you expect players to grind that?(If theres another way to get High Quality Paper please someone tell me!)
Edit: Found another.
7.Hammer-For Black Citadel only Kalla and Nox work, I got nothing no matter where a stood for the others.
Edit2:Got the ponders just had to stand pretty far infront of them but I did get them.

I’ve got a question, is the mystic forge been brought up in this matter?

To put it simply,
Are there going to be new recipes?
Are some going to get changes?
Is what you guys want it to be going to change?
etc, just a lot of “is X of the MF changing” or “is X of the MF going to be updated”.

Thank you John.

I pre-purchased from the GW2 site(thanks for correcting the word)

I received everything else from the ultimate edition except the veterans bonus slot, thank you and I will submit a ticket.

Xiahou Mao.9701:

For the Ultimate Edition, you should get the perks within 2-4 hours of ordering. The gems, Mini Rytlock, bonus character slot, etc.

For the extra “veteran” bonus character slot, those are being given on a weekly basis, so you wouldn’t have to wait more than a week for that if you qualify for it. You qualify for it if you bought the game before January 23rd this year.

I pre-order the Ultimate edition on July the 15 and have played since launch yet I have not received my Veteran slot yet, should I submit a ticket?

DiogoSilva.7089:

EDIT 2/ TL;DR The system is fine if it gets to be renamed to trials, because it creates the right set of expectations. However, it’ll need to offer more elaborate content if it is meant to live to the expectations set up by the word “adventure”.

My exact feelings with the system, “adventure” is to strong a word, “trial” makes much more sense.

Blaeys.3102:

One thing Ive wanted for a REALLY long time is the ability to host and play minigames (sanctum sprint, kegbrawl, etc) with my guildmates.

I know they said during Wintersday that there are restrictions on how people enter minigames because they are tied to the servers or system powering pvp, but it seems like an expansion/introducing guild halls would be the perfect time to fix those limitations.

I would love this aswell , I’m alright if they don’t give rewards or advance the achevis I just want to do them with guildmates , mini-games offer something that we can have fun with people we know.

I enjoy this new UI very much, love the focus for visual appeal.

Also thank you for still keeping the “tabs for X” since there are times I see people just want to see there equipment or just minis, good job and thank you for your hard work.

Amethyst Lure.5624:

Numbers might be low, not sure, but the functionality is a massive improvement in my eyes.

1. Faster burst healing and making sure you get in some ticks before people walk out.

2. Less time/chance of cancelling out other, more useful longterm fields, particularly in PvE.

If they get the numbers right, they’re on the right track.

My same ‘feel’ from testing, its “faster” but way “weaker” , please double check your numbers Anet.

Ticket number #576496

Can I get confirmation that mine is still in the “not fixed” pile.

Still not getting rewards for doing guild missions, and its spreading to my other guildys.

I and other people don’t seem to be getting guild rewards for completing missions, this is a bug from guesting, please fix this as I see no reason to do guild mission if I get nothing for it.

just did all mission again this week, no commendations, I guess its not a problem to anet.

Did you try right-click “unlock skin”, weird bug where its got to be ‘account bound’ not ‘soul bound’.

I will have to test to see if I’m getting this problem.

Il say its popped up again because of mega servers.

I also did not get any commendations, but for me its been like this for 2 months.

I would most like to see more stats in ascended like some SHAMAN, theres a lot of missing stat combos MISSING in the ascended branch.

The dev tracking is messy and anything would be better.

NonToxic.9185:

If you are dying to the level 4 theif mobs on the way to Bandit, you are not who the train is meant to assist. You should be doing hearts or story quests until you are a level where you are not too handicapped to run the train properly.

I take a mesmer on the train regularly, with Blink and Temporal Curtain it is not tough to tag all the champs. If you are unable to keep up with the train, you are not using the correct items to be the most efficient and you are not who the train is meant to assist. The train is for powerfarming, if you want some casual levels that’s cool! Sit at boar and go to troll afterwards and you get a couple of events with time in-between to smoke a cig or scratch your butt. You can benefit from the train without impeding it, and that is what most people fail to realize.

It is not a matter of -me- dictating the pace of the train, there is only one pace. Run all the champs and get all the tags and pick up all your loot in one cycle, that is the pace. The people dictating pace are the ones who don’t bother queueing waypoints or having the right gear or skills. You want to drink some water and slash dance? Cool beans, that doesn’t mean you should create a situation where the whole train has to wait for you. Sit out for a champ, don’t start the next one early. EVERYBODY gets more loot if the train is running at max speed. EVERYBODY gets less loot when it isn’t. Ideally you want to be sitting at each champ, waiting on the respawn because the zerg blew through the cycle so fast it is a race against respawn timers.

The most frustrating thing is when people skips champs and then call out the next one. Great, now Oak is dying while the real train is at bandit.

tl;dr The Train isn’t as fun as many other parts of the game, the only reason to ride is money. And you lose money by being inefficient, so it seems doubly silly to me.

Pretty much what I’m thinking, for vets this is a way to make money, for new players it should be looked at as a way to get another lv over with or as an easy way to get some dailys over with, its not all the game has to show for itself but its here and you should know what your getting into if you join the train.

My friends showed this to me 2 days ago, looks like there gonna be everywhere.

Dio.2394:

Trial servers are the answer.

I think that’s a good idea, does anet have the power to do that I wonder?

bradderzh.2378:

They don’t, free trial weekend and they don’t
A) disable mail on new accounts to stop them receiving the money or siege plans to grief with.
B) just flat out disable wvw access for free accounts.

It doesnt take much foresight to see this kinda thing happen but they are too focused on pulling new people in and not taking care of the ones they already have -_-

This , disable free accounts from messing with the rest of us.

bradderzh.2378:

Really…
How sad, nearly 600 supply drained so far and he has 50 trebs left… Why is this even allowed.

I had the same problem with this guy just now,

notice the 44 achev points, again anet if this was a trial account, bad move on you.

To help see where I did dig,

http://dulfy.net/2013/04/04/gw2-super-adventure-box-bauble-digging-locations/

I did a grid sweep of each spot, only got a chest at end of worm short cut.

Josh Foreman.8250:

MasterOfMistakes.2089:

1. are the dig spots still there at all.

2. what are they tied to in mechanics, because as it stands its bugged then or just random hit or miss.

Can you describe a specific location? I’ll look into it.

http://dulfy.net/2013/04/04/gw2-super-adventure-box-bauble-digging-locations/

All these locations, digging multiple times in a grid pattern to cover all around the areas, again I only got 1 chest of baubles which was at the end of the worm short cut.

Did world 1 with 4 other people who just started today, people who farmed it last time in april, we got 1 bauble at each spot, I’m hearing people walk out with 500, something is wrong, what I’m asking is,

Are they there at all?

Is the reward just 1 bauble?

Is it bugged?

I’m I bugged?

Please someone tell me, this will decide if I should even bother if the rewards are just not there compared to last time.

I did try a solo speed run and just got 1 chest to spawn at the end of the worm shortcut, this is just weird.

Should I just file a bug-ticket that none of the dig spots worked for me in world 1 then, since I cant seem to get an answer here?

Could I get a confirmation on the dig spots, I just tried all the dig spots from world 1, with 4 other people digging around a spot, we got nothing, finally tried to speed run solo, and got a chest to spawn at the end of the worm short cut worth 5 bubbles, what I’m asking is

1. are the dig spots still there at all.

2. what are they tied to in mechanics, because as it stands its bugged then or just random hit or miss.

As for comments overall, World 2 is severe, where World 1 mistake = run back around a Word 2 mistake = death, so if you don’t want people to farm like last time fix the dig spots to at least be daily, or fix the fact they don’t seem to be in World 1 at all.

Sorry to put this in someone else’s thread but I have also found that my Mini WatchKnight has disappeared. i have the achievement, and it was definately in my collectibles tab before the update, after the latest update it had disappeared. I have checked all my characters just in case.

The same thing has happened to me, I have checked all my characters and bank but it is no where to be found please look into this.

I do believe Colin or someone said the unique rewards from champs would be daily like dragon event loot, they want people to starting hunting and “explore”-ing again, also do you really believe they would make it as easy as farming Queen troll all day, just saying it would be better to start thinking about where you can find champions everywhere.

Thank you for the warnings, I will warn everyone I know.

I also did the dungeon before path update.

In relation to the video,
Its almost scary how good you are, really top tier example of what can be achieved, while it seemed to show mainly aggressive play when you explain what leads to what im sure it will help alot to know whats going on, well done and good luck in your next video.

Well said Dream, i like the point bulletin style and yes traits should be more then a stats bonus, they can be a major factor and help a group if the build supports it, overall youve summed up the major basic factors of GW2 combat and i hope others learn from it.

I mainly used a SW build in sPVP and used it as a staller, i could hold of 4 people for 10 seconds flat which was great for points, a friend of mine tried the build in PVE with great success say it was nice to have the cover, with todays patch he said it killed him(game wise), the main thing he related is there average lifespan is 3-8 seconds since there so squishy, he said he plans to abandon it for his old build which was just putting points in random places, I would like to know why did this happen Anet, this was a very minor almost nich build that i heard people use mainly for fun, now those sources say they never want to touch it again, please explain your mind set here!

As a guardian I can verify, spent 1 hour with a friend while he setup fields i finished them and other way around, this achievement is broken, none of my combos worked, please remove it from roster, most angry it was last one to do before reset:((((

i just missed him on borlis pass, following event chain now, and sister brenda and her pack bull are immoble but quest to defend her bull is active.

just checked yes its free TY very much, when i map check area it said contested, cheers!

any news? new areas
just went to north shizer, contested, gonna have to wait another week:<

DigiChaos.1893:

One strange effect I have seen was that when I did get a drop, I would get a small streak of drops and sometimes duplicates.

IE:
- No dye drops for hours and then all of a sudden I will get 2-3 dye drops in a span of a minute.
- Two of the same thing one right after another. For example: two yellow large skulls dropping from two mobs, one right after another.

This has been my trend to, exact same thing with dyes.

Ichishi.9613:

Bosses in dungeons are so overstatted in health and resists that most of the time sacrificing even a bit of damage for more control is just slowing yourself down. As long as you have that awareness.

For example. A so called support-focused ele. Boons, heals, removes conditions. But, again – limited to 5 allies – makes sense there are 5 man parties. So at least one of 5 people in party is sacrificing damage for support. And lets see where is goes in game:
You need to stay together to benefit from support fully – but you need to spread from boss damage
You want to heal people – but they must stay away from damage
You want to save that guy who just misdodged and got hit for half hp – but you don’t have directs heals or boons to give him.
That is exactly what happens to support later in game, exactly what happened to me.
You come in and say – ill be support. It works wonders at start, but then people start to dodge, hide, move. Start to bring self-boons. And you turn from a pug-savior you were into a “we don’t have enough damage”.

A minor investment into utility on a more or less glassy but CANNON on every party member is by far better that one person dedicated to that.
A simple calculation – you need to be able to maintain crazy amounts of might and fury on whole party to compensate your damage loss on support oriented build. Most likely you don’t even have to be in a support build to give those boons out. Than why roll one?
Sadly, in terms of contribution, the best support for any kind of pve in almost any situation is a zero support investment engi. 24 stacks of vuln 24/7 beats everything.

I agree with DreamyAbaddon, after seeing his naked training (fight no armor and take no hits) I thinks its amazing that people can be this good, for the most part I feel the pve content is made so people who arent so good can do it, but I also think Ichishi has a point, there are some parts that are just jerkish so I’ve pretty much built my Guardian to aegis spam and support the people who arent that good yet while dodging myself, at times it feels like the only cards anet has with dungeons is ‘million mob march’ or ‘million hp 1-hit ko boss’ so I’ve basically made it so I can save people and do a little damage, the feeling of sucesses is great but sometimes you just want to kill that jerk (I’m looking at you Lieutenant Kohler) because hes just not fun or fair, still great post DreamyAbaddon an il tell you when I can record your trainning ok.
