Guild Wars 2

Stitch.1794:

There are 2 more achievements available for world 2 than are needed to complete the meta achievement and unlock the title, so just because you have the title doesn’t mean you must have previously completed everything. Considering you did this a few years ago, could you have only done enough to get the title last time around, and in the mean time forgotten that you didn’t complete the last few achievements?

Nope. I completed the whole lot last time. Only incomplete achievements I have are the new Master of Decor ones and Course Load (excluding some incomplete tribulation mode ones, but that’s its own category).

Yeah. I checked with the Rata Sum map chat I was in and the general consensus there was it was only me with this bug. I’ll put in a support ticket.

I’m not sure when or how this happened, but I opened my achievement panel to check on my Course Load progress to discover my completed Bachelor of Baubles, World 2 achievement has been wiped back to 0.

I have attached a screenshot that shows the missing achievement and my ‘Honors in Applied Jumping’ title, which I received when I completed all but the Tribulation mode achievements for SAB back in 2013 when it was last available. I have no desire to repeat this achievement as it was rather tedious. I have sent in a bug report from in game, but am I wondering if I should contact support to get them to fix it.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

It should be worth pointing out that World 2, Zone 2 is the only part of World 2 I have played today (but did not complete, just acquired the Academic Probation daily).

Hmm fair enough. It just seemed weird that his was refunded yesterday and mine has had no response since and the tickets were submitted barely 5 minutes apart. I would have thought even if there were more of the same type of ticket in the list that mine would have been in the bunch his was in to be resolved.

Your delay I can understand to an extent, because they requested a list of items, but I provided a list of mine after receiving all my tonics and deciding whether or not I wanted them or to sell them on the TP or to get a refund.

Hi there

On the day of the patch, I put in a request for refund of the 5 clothing tonics I received as part of the town clothes changeover (ticket number: 542451). I received an almost immediate response which was fairly redundant considering it was from the Support Team?

Hello Obsidian,

Thank you for contacting the Guild Wars 2 Support Team!

I’m transferring your ticket to a member of the Guild Wars 2 Support Team to further assist you. Someone will be in contact with you as soon as possible.

Regards,

Brandon
Guild Wars 2 Support Team

And then I haven’t heard a word since or received a refund. My partner placed a ticket at pretty much the exact same time and received his refund yesterday.

Should I resubmit my ticket? It seems unusual that he received his refund and I still haven’t received mine.

Actually, you can transmute them to make them account bound. the various quaggan and charr back covers come with a white non-attribute brace. I believe you can buy some at the TP if you don’t want to give more gems to ANet. Just make sure you buy one that has not already been opened (I think the “cover” has the back brace and the “skin” does not – but I’m not 100% sure on the naming and cant log on right now to check)

Yes, someone else has suggested this to me, but I don’t think it’s fair I should have to fork out for another back piece skin when I don’t need it and I just want to use the wings on my engineer

For some of them yes, it makes sense. Wings are a little different to say a Guild Backpack/Charr/Quaggan Backpack though. And they do work with kits, just not properly. If they were fixed to work with kits at least, I would forgo my shield so they’re not wasted.

Race: Human
Sex: Female
Class: Engineer
Item: Holographic Dragon Wings Cover

Problem: Wings disappear when using a shield (not in combat)/any engineer kit (both in/out of combat). Can be sort of fixed for the latter by unticking/reticking the show back item tick box.

Screenshots:

Showing that wings can be displayed after unticking and reticking to show back item. Only works with kits, not with shield.

So I just purchased wings from the TP to put on my engineer, as they match her colour scheme. I was super excited until I discovered the following:

1 – Dragon Wings DO NOT work with shields when you are not in combat stance. They just vanish. Whilst this is understandable for other back items, the wings are holographic and it would not bother me for them to protrude through the shield.

2 – Dragon Wings GLITCH with engineer kits! You can get them showing up again by unticking/reticking to display back item, but it’s a massive pain in the rear. As a flamethrower build engineer, this is extremely disappointing.

Essentially I have wasted 14 gold buying wings for nothing, because you can only see them when I’m in combat stance and not using my primary weapon, my flamethrower. And the real kick in the crotch is that I can’t give the wings to my other characters because they are now soulbound.

BACK ITEMS SHOULD BE ACCOUNT BOUND BECAUSE WE CANNOT TRANSMUTE THEM TO WHITE/BLUE TO MAKE THEM THAT WAY. This makes limited time skins like these wings a huge gamble, especially when they do no display properly (It has been pointed out that if you fork out for a Charr/Quaggan backpack set that it comes with a white back piece to use… still rather unfair though to fork out for another skin just to save this one when I have it on the character I want to use it on anyway).

This has ruined the Dragon Bash event for me…

Mighty Chain Coat (Simple) recipe screenshot for differences: http://i.imgur.com/AClVe.jpg

Upon going to make a set of level 5 armour again, I discovered the recipe for the legs in the set is different to every other piece.

It should list:
1x Vial of Weak Blood
1 x Bronze Chain Leggings Panel
1 x Bronze Chain Leggings Lining

But instead it lists:
4 x Vial of Weak Blood
14 x Bronze Ingot
4 x Bolt of Jute
8 x Spool of Jute Thread

No other piece of the level 5 lists items of this manner. I have attached screenshots to show the different between the recipes for the legs and for the chest.

Edit: I jumped on my alts and checked light armour and medium armour and they were all consistent recipes. Only the level 5 legs of heavy armour are this weird recipe.

I’m eager to join another guild that’s more active. I currently am part of Dark Spire, which is a guild run by myself and another friend and it’s very small with only 13 members total (90% are people are people we know irl). It’s lovely and all, but now that I’m keen to get into WvW and PvP a bit more after reaching 80 on my main, I’d like to join a larger guild and the discussion about this one appeals to me

A couple of notes – I am in Australia, so would be playing in off-peak times. I am also keen to roleplay at times (part of the reason I joined Tarnished Coast) if any of the guild partake in that too.

I will shoot off PMs to recommended players for an invite. Hope you’ll have me
