Why do people think skins will return?

Something I just noticed recently is that there are now achievements related to the acquisition of skins due to the implementation of the wardrobe. While I haven’t done the math, I would suspect that unless some of these skins return that it would be impossible to gain the number required to complete the achievement.

I am only guessing but it could be a possibility. Of course I could be completely wrong.

So we earn these weapons through WvW achievements, correct? Can the skins then be applied to PvE gear with the wardrobe system? Because although I like the looks of the weapons, I’m not a huge WvW fan, so I don’t want to put a bunch of time into something I don’t really care about to get gear I won’t use normally.

Yes you can.

Map Completion Reward?

Aa I understand it, it will be still possible to do map completion in LA, though it will be more difficult. I was wondering if the reward for completing the map in LA will change?

I don’t remember where I got this impression but it’s stuck with me: Gnomes are the illusionist-ish race with the bond with an animal. It is because of that, I can’t see asura in anyway similar to gnomes.

And it’s not like gw dwarves are like other dwarves.

You got that impression from playing Dungeons and Dragons I’m guessing.

Try the Wayfarer Foothills. Usually quite a few people hanging out there. Couple of decent events in the area. Also has an awesome meta-event in the Frozen Maw. Other fairly decent meta events include, Giant Wurm in Caledon Forest and Fire Elemental in Metrica province. All low level chest events and in areas where there are more than a fair few people kicking around.

I would say that they should also buff normal mob drops and the drops of the various non-event champions, but this may cause a botting problem.

Will also make it so there are even more rares in the game. I think that buffing the drops will devalue the rares even more than they have been already

I’m sure that there are plenty of level 80s out there who can’t be bothered to map low-level areas as the rewards aren’t relevant to their characters.
Scale those rewards, and you’ll have a lot more people exploring.
Hell, guaranteed 2 exotics for map completion? Awesome.

The map areas are relevant for the levels they are designed for. Why should a level 80 get better rewards for putting off completing a low level map area? If they had of done it when they were the appropriate level, the rewards would have been appropriate. Not to mention adding more exotics to the game will do not much else other than devalue them further.

Damage Not Registering Against Dragon's Feet

I have experienced this a total of 3 times now. Once against Jormag and twice against Teqatl. I am using a level 80 ranger armed with a Ghastly Longbow of Force(+5% damage) Before the patch, I generally used the same strategy on both these dragons which involved me targeting their front left claws. However, now when I do so, no damage is registering no matter how close I get. I have confirmed that I can still damage Teqatl’s right front claw but it seems I have to be closer to do so than what I would have had to have been before the patch.

Maw needs a revamp.

It started when the laurels/daily patch dropped. Not only does MAW give good loot, but it also provides you 5 quick events to get your dailies.

Also a good way to get your dodge dailies at the end of the event with the snow tornadoes as they linger once the boss has died

I would disagree about ever needing 15 people for the crystals as for two of them there are safe spots where archers can sit and take no damage while taking out the crystals. In one spot there is no way for any monster to even reach them. The only way to change this would be to punish ranged fighters by moving the crystals farther away form the safe spot. Personally, I like as a ranged fighter that there are spots I can sit and snipe at a distance without having to get in the fray. To me, this is as it should be as archers should never be used as front line fighters. After all, the longbow does more damage the farther away you are from the target.

Another World In Fractals

So last night I was in fractal level 6(I think it was) and just before the Jade Maw, I didn’t see the final jump and fell. The fall, which I assumed would kill me did not and instead after falling for about 15-20 seconds I finally landed in water.

I took some screen shots to show where I was, which I will post below. I did try to get on some of the landmasses but was unable to as it seemed when I was jumping, I was under the land which was blocking me.

I was able to get out of it by clicking out of the dungeon which put me back in Lion’s Arch. When the widow popped up, I immediately joined my party which teleported me to the nearest checkpoint and killed me instantly.

daily events.

dodger – dodging should be a part of your normal play, if it is not you should learn to use it as it is a vital skill to be used to doing correctly in any group content. unless you only take on normal trash mobs in open world all day you should be dodging some. Skill Pint chalenges and events are great places to do these if you do not want to do it with normal trash mobs. go run AC and kill Kholer (you will be done in one fight)

While I don’t have a problem with the dodging as a daily(as stated, it’s not that hard to get) I would argue that if you play as an archer or similar long range character, it isn’t a truly necessary skill. But still not that hard to get especially if you’re doing group events with a lot fo AOE attacks being sent your way. Dodging out of red circles isn’t hard to do at all

Dodging isn’t truly necessary on a ranged character? no wonder rangers die so easily to a necrotic grasp or an immobilize into close quarters, none of them ever learned how to dodge like the daily is trying to teach you to do.

Admittedly my dodging skill does need work, though I am getting better… partially due to it being included with the dailies. I thin the major problem I have with my non ranger character is that when you get into close quarters. it becomes hard to tell what is going on at times due to the amount of people fighting at close range. Especially if you get a couple of Norns and Charrs in the mix what with humans being considerably shorter. Makes me wonder what it will be like to play as an Asura.

Are any events active in the area? When the investigation completes, it immediately starts the totem event. I’m trying to find out exacly where it got stuck. (And I don’t have GM commands on the Live servers, so I can’t check the servers listed above.)

The event to collect the wyrm eggs and I believe collecting the armour so the kid can build snowmen both still run. Sorry but I don’t know what they are called off hand.

Problem With Chat Window

Nazgul.8274

Being the noob that I am, I have accidentally closed the “Main” tab in the chat window. Would someone please be so kind as to tell me how to get it back?

On the off chance that it’s not possible to get it back, will it effect any new charcters I make as well?
