Guild Wars 2

Just finished Fractal.10 about an hr ago. Didn’t get an Ascended Ring, just 25 relics and a bag of gold. The rest of my party got their rings…

The Phase 1 Lag Event was so successful that it stopped Phase 2 from starting lol.

Defora.3694:

They are not adding WOW like gear tiers that make old gear useless.

This is quote from News and Announcements:

Our Studio Design Director Chris Whiteside just posted this:
“I’d like to respond to concerns players have raised about ascended items. Please keep in mind that we’re releasing this as one portion of a massive November update that introduces and improves many aspects of challenge, progression, and rewards. With this and upcoming updates, we view ourselves as introducing large amounts of content with supporting systems and features, akin to an expansion pack, building on Guild Wars 2 through a series of live releases. So it’s important for us to be able to add an expansion pack’s worth of progression and rewards to support that content.

Our goal is not to create a gear treadmill. Our goal is to ensure we have a proper progression for players from exotic up to legendary without a massive jump in reward between the two. We will slowly add the remaining ascended gear items and legendary items in future updates to allow people time to acquire them as we add exciting new content that deserves exciting rewards. We will not be adding a new tier of gear every 3 months that we expect everyone to chase after and then get the next set and so on.

Ascended and infusion rewards will be available in both PvE and WvW over time, and be made available through all sorts of content around the world including existing content. PvP will remain unaffected to ensure our intended PvP balance going forward. We are also working on other reward and progression systems for the game that tie into current and new content and features. As you know we care very much about your support and opinion and are listening intently to what you say.

Finally we look forward to hearing your thoughts on the upcoming content, and we will ensure we share our thoughts with you on the experiences we share in the Lost Shores."

Looks like it won’t just be in the Fractals. Looking forwards to it.

The game was working fine last night. Woke up this morning, it loaded up fine but once I changed map, it would give me that error during the loading screen.

2 of my characters, including my level 80, is now stuck between maps. My other characters load fine but once I change maps via portal or waypoint, it would give me the error.

Any solutions?

edit: It seems to be happening when I try to enter Lion’s Arch. It won’t load Lion’s Arch and gives network error

Doing Arah Story is part of your personal story as it involves killing off Zhaitan, after you’ve finish that, you’ll be given another quest to celebrate at Fort Trinity.

Just finished my first CM Exploration today, 3rd path I think, and was rewarded with 45 Tokens and 19 Silvers….

Never did CM Exploration before. This was the first time….

It will start over for that new world.
