Sounds good for me purely for the convenience of not swapping professions/characters.

Upgrade extractor is currently foolish.

I think the only rational use for them seems to be to extract one of the karma/gold/exp/MF Laurel inscriptions from a utility amulet.

Upgrade Extractor either needs a drastic reduction in costs or perhaps move it from gemstore to the Laurel merchant as a reward item.

As I recall on gw1, there were certain challenge missions that had Records held for fastest time or most points.

A record of best speedclearing for dungeons/fotm for each month would be a nice thing to have imo.

Hello.

I play everyday at least 3 hours and have 13 characters at level 80. I’m too serious to be casual and too casual to be hardcore.

I enjoy playing Staff Ele in WvW and have reached ranked 720 (and will have around 900 total when they get merged)

Also I’ve reached fotm 50 although not quite enough AR to run it yet, usually play on warrior for dungeons/fotm.

I’ve faced and defeated Teq multiple times but have not had the chance to join an organised Wurm attempt yet.

I’m looking for a large, English speaking guild that does all guild missions at a time I can attend and ideally has at least karma and magic find boosts running 24/7.

I plan to swap servers from Sanctum of Rall for Season 2.

World Ranks FAQ

in WvW

Posted by: OliverLogan.7145

OliverLogan.7145

So when the ranks become account bound. Say my total rank is 400. does that mean I have 400 points to put into each character, or does it mean I have 400 points to split between all my characters.

My interpretation is each character will have the “400” to spend individually. (the former)

Some of my friends interpreted this the other way. (the latter)

The former seems to make more sense to me, it would be strange seeing Bronze/Silver Legends running around without points invested in anything (eg Guard Leech/Applied Fortitude)
It would also have a bigger impact, making those wxp earned on alts more rewarding. crosses fingers

Account bound WXP

in WvW

Posted by: OliverLogan.7145

OliverLogan.7145

the players who have alts is going to get 5 easy ranks for each alt. as a player who doesnt have any alts i want a 10 rank boost scrool. thank you

“All earned World XP on an account will be put into a single pool.

The sum of those points will determine the world rank and World Ability Points available to each character on the account."

;)

i am talking about the first 5 ranks which are easier

Rank WXP required for next rank
1 1000
2 1000
3 1000
4 2000
5+ 5000

Yes I know, they are referring to Wxp, not Wranks, so basically they will take all wxp your characters have made and apply it to your account.

example :

I have 2 char rank 10 = my account will be rank 16 ( not 20 )

Correct, that is exactly how it will work.

I’d also like to thank the developers and everyone in the community that nagged for the change! It was great news to hear about it.

Just quoting that little bit there because I was just considering the possibility of making alts to farm the first 5 levels quickly, but Anet has already taken it into account. gg

Oculus Rift

OliverLogan.7145

After watching this video I’m quite excited about this device.

The speaker in the video mentions that no first person view and not being able to adjust the in game user interface are limiting this device for only working in Guild Wars 1 currently.

On the off-chance any developers will read this: Will there be support for Oculus Rift for GW2 in the future?

I think the only logical thing to do would be to hire a group of top Asuran scientists to build a time machine, travel back 200 years and settle down in Fisherman’s Haven, sipping coktails and sunbathing.

Changes to ecto salvage from rares

Armor level 80 yellow salvaged with Master Salvage Kit
775 Armors
402 Ectoplasm
634 Rune
1120 Common Materials
99 Rare materials
Drop Rate Ectoplasm 51.87
In the past I had 89 % ration on ecto from rare

I would like to ask anyone with a sound knowledge of statistics: what is the percentage chance of this occurring if we assume the 0.9 return rate is unchanged?

I usually wait until he opens mouth, quickly click on the gaping hole, then quickly throw.

Trying to target him before he opens mouth seems to target the necklace instead (I think).

When I first played GW2 around launch date, I really couldn’t get into it and left it alone for 3 months.

Picked it up again, found a great guild and enjoy playing daily now.

With a bit of help from experienced players explaining the basics, I was able to build a half decent character, explore the world and eventually join my guild in the chaos that is WvW.

50 hours into the fight and the scores are:

Abaddon’s Mouth: 65,659

Jade Sea: 60,977

making this the closest battle out of all the tiers on both US and EU worlds.

Looks like the ranking system is working well for the middle of the table.
