What he is trying to say, is that the Guild Bounty mission T1 was not able to be completed. We can see and kill some of the NPC’s, and recieve the one chest for the first kill and only a coin/Karma/xp thereafter.

Congrats to you. We have several players in The Acolytes with legendary’s and none are anything other than avid players.

We do lots of runs to support players when they are working on one. We have threads on our forums listing progress and asking for help with parts that might be slowing someone. It takes a time investment and some intelligence to look for best methods to get the materials, but in no way has to be anything to do with exploiting.

Get some friends or a Guild to help, it is a large part of what makes the time spent in a game fun. being on a voice server, chatting, joking being social and entertained at the same time you are on that legendary journey.

  1. What data or information could we the players provide to the development team to help you see the diminished effectiveness?
  2. Which other ability(s) of the Ranger are in your view the ones to take up the role of filling the reduced DPS?

Why don't most rangers name their pets?

in Ranger

Posted by: MaxTwelve.4725

MaxTwelve.4725

This is a combination of data issue decision on Anet’s part and a bug.

The numbers of pets available plus the numbers of rangers equal a lot of storage so the defaulted to only being able to name the current active pet slots (2 land+2 Water). Then the current slot name can be reset to the default when selecting a new pet or taming a new pt.

When posting your updates to this thread I suggest everyone add the following details. Each of the display settings can cause differences, such as full screen with large interface, causes UI right offset for me. So having these noted in each post will show a more clear picture of what the player base has in common.

Hardware/Software

  • Graphics Card/Cards
  • Driver Version
  • Number of Monitors
  • Native Resolution

What pets do you guys use?

Fast way to get armored fish is under Lions Arch in the sewer.

I really like seeing in threads so many pets being used. Other games the pets are much closed to being the same all the way down the thread.

I do switch my pets up once in a while and find utility in them each time.
Current for PvE I have been using Eagle and Salamander, Shark and Devourer. For WvW I use wolves/eagles/devourers/cave spider.

Both of these images are Full Screen 5760×1080 with Large UI selection.

In the character selection screen the offset to the right is hard to see in a screenshot, but the bezel for the center and right monitors run through the map completions badge.

Logged into the game, the character would be normally centered over the health bubble, but is now to the left over the number one skill. Also the Quest dialog box at the top is partially obscured by being placed too high.

I became a victim of this bug tonight. I am at the final cave, all enemies dead, I saw the cut scenes etc. But nothing will let me get past that last wall with Trahearne. Researchers stay at north end of cave.

Once I started killing in the cave i was spammed by the red content disabled message. Seems the grubs are being affected by the anti-farming applied to grubs in other map locations.

You can make stuff like this, you just have to do it. I spent a while today with my kids (I have two) coaching them on masks they are making. The biggest issue is always having the idea, and then just running with it. Don’t let the logic get in the way, let the creative side run wild.

Hello and welcome to Friday!! DBH!

First off I had done a round of sanding, then touch up with the Paaz, then some more sanding. Then I painted the base coat of a brown/sienna, followed by a watered down green that was partially rubbed off.

Sorry I did not take more photos during the painting portion.

I was waiting for GW2 to come out and I had to make something to keep my creative drive satisfied, and since I had just done plaster gauze cast for my face a mask it would be. Then with that base I decided a Sylvari mask would be fun to make. I am almost done with it and a few of you might have seen this on other forums or at PAX Prime.

So here is a progress chain leading up the the most recent. Sorry this forum is not letting me put the images side by side.
