Guild Wars 2

Still running dungeons and daily’s and wondering why RTL/Mistform had to get shafted due to stupid PvP play.

Personally I’m getting sick of games that nerf fun PvE play in favour of PvP.

I could see the point if the entire game was PvP but it isn’t.

I followed this build before even coming to the forums and realising it was a bunker build: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evJ507gkbdg

Generally I can out survive a lot of my team in dungeons like AC and Arah and find it a lot of fun for breaking CC / Dots and staying alive.

Have to say I see no point at all in nerfing RtL for PvE.

Is it seriously that difficult to code it so its only nerfd in WvW?

Right own up, who didn’t replace the gerbils that power the servers over the weekend?

; )

Also booted when changing from Lions Arch to another zone to join friends on a jump puzzle.

Now unable to login with usual BS errors that didn’t stop me logging in 15 mins ago.

Same this evening, been playing since release, no lag issues at all cept in large scale world boss fights and even then I can still play.

Entered a CoF pug tonight and supper lag, everyone running on spot, cant swap skills or use attacks. Perfectly fine up till attacking mobs in the dungeon then lagathon begins.

Oddly enough party chat has zero lag and others said they had no issue what so ever so obviously something going wrong.

Oh no worries on that count luridftw.4536, Im going to be watching my funds/bank/gear like a hawk from now on. ^^

I also like the current logins page showing which ip/location is currently playing.

Btw thanks to everyone who positivly commented on this issue and tried to help.

I must admit that so far Im getting better support from the playerbase than from the support staff.

: )

luridftw.4536:

Well in one of the low level areas noobs have complained about the cannon that shoots you to a vista point. If you talk to this npc at the wrong time he wants you to bet 50 silver. A mistaken noob unknowingly will think it is part of the cannon shoot, But it isn’t. (Even I almost fell for that one my first time)
Is it possible this was a thing you were doing at the time?

Thanks, that actually ties in with the issue I initially complained about.

I was just trying to get the vista and didnt realise the npc was actually going to place a real bet.

I did try to go back to this later to check but couldnt get the text to pop up to confirm or deny if it was this which took my gold away.

I know 1 gold isnt much to some people but it is to a new player on their first char.

At least now I can carry on playing the game without worrying where my funds are disapearing to.

Bascialy I had around 1 gold 70 silver in my inventory.

Was doing some basic pve questing, selling junk, moving around completing hearts and when I looked a while later in the evening I was down to around 40 silver for no aparent reason.

Checked bank / guild bank and hadnt deposited anything. At this point hadnt realy botherd with trading post either so its not like I was trying to buy or sell anything.

So needless to say I was scratching my head and wondering where a large chunk of my very first characters gold had disapeard to.

I have searched this on the net and even seen a few other people on the forums make similar complaints. Its not an isolated incedent and as I said in my first ticket to the support staff, if they could at least show me where that gold went to then it would help a lot.

Instead I get a copy and paste response from somone who obviously cant be botherd to do their job correctly.

I also find it hard to believe that a company that supposedly cracks down on gold hacks/farmers doesnt have the tools to check what has or hasnt been done with a characters funds.

This after Guild wars 2 decided to enforce a athorisation email linked to my ip.

Additionaly my email requires a authorisation code if being used from a different ip.

Oh and as if the above werent funny enough already, why in the name of whichever god you want to put faith in, would they only steal 1 gold and leave all my other silver/gear alone?

I am following up on this via response option to my ticket but if this copy and paste crap is any indication, I dont expect anything valid to follow, which is why Im posting here.

Incident: 120911-008?272 (missing over 1 gold in funds for no aparent reason)

Not sure If ill get a better idea of what happend here, than waiting on the auto response.

But I had around 1 gold and 70 odd silver whilst questing earlier in the day, didnt buy or trade anything other than usual sell junk and a few teleports and yet when I later looked at my funds I was down to 45 silver.

Ive only the 1 character, no funds stored in personal or guild bank.

Cant help but note other people have run into the same issue and looking at account security the only IP showing logged in is my own so I would realy like to get this sorted out.

Even if its just a note showing where those extra funds disapeard to, I certainly dont intend to play a game where the currency just decides to wander out of my inventory when the mood takes it.

I find it highly amusing that they gave you that response.

Didnt they just drive everyone nuts with the whole confirmation email for loging in from a different ip than the one you usualy use?

Even asuming they did figure out your username and pass they would also of had to hack your email in order to veryify their login atempt.
