Guild Wars 2

They drop from Treasure Mushrooms, I’ve seen players in Dragons Stand get them from the Treasure Mushrooms after the meta there.

I still haven’t beaten the HOT final instance on my Ele as you have to fight those horrible bosses before Mordy and my Ele breaks like an egg

I agree with you OP, I had a similar experience on the EU servers and have over 100 people blocked cause they were either trolling or being mean in some way to some one. I even asked in map chat if we could choose man at arms for the achieve in VB and they all chose the other one to spite me, and guess what still don’t have the achieve for it. I’ve recently changed to NA servers and I am finding the community far less toxic and immature now. But every ones experiences are different at the end of the day and it would be nice if people could be more helpful to each other as that is what Arena was all about and why they got rid of the AI heroes that we had in GW1 so people would mingle and help each other more. RIP Koss.

Hi there,

I just got severe lag and was disconnected then i get this error when trying to log in again?

I thought it looked more like Primordus and being called path of fire made sense cause its Balthazar & Primordus maybe? Primordus maybe woke up after the dealing with Balthazar in Draconis Mons?

Thanks @ Randulf.7614

would be cool if enemies had boons would give the boon stripper classes actually something to strip in PVE.

Yeah my problem is I live in New Zealand and peak hours on my server are 3-6am and I already have to pull all nighters to get Gift of Battle.

Um sorry what trailer? I feel like I’m missing out here.

Ah okay thanks guys I see the problem might be the meta not being fully completed so I will consider doing the reward track in wvw thanks for your advice appreciate it

Hi there,

I am having trouble finding the final chest pieces for the bladed armour sets I need. I have been trying for a year so far and have only got 1 chest so far. This is really frustrating me as I’ve tried so many times with capped participation at 200% and still no chest box??

Am I missing something? is there something else I am supposed to be doing I don’t get it?
I think the drop rate might be a bit to low and I am giving up on trying to get these now as its just to long now for one collection.

Let me know if I am missing something to help me get the chest box thanks for your time.

I agree with not putting flying mounts into the game. It would make Vista’s, JP’s & Map completion far too easy and we would loose interest all together very quickly.
I did enjoy flying around on my Mount in WOW but here I am playing GW2 not Wow now see the point.

It’s funny reading this thread as it illustrated to me just how hard it is for Arenanet to keep everyone happy. They really do a good job as it is impossible to keep everyone happy. I’m cool either way they go TBH I love PVE content in this game so that’s fine with me if its locked in the story steps and map content like HOT.

I found it very hard to test the elite specs on golems 60 other people were hitting at the same time and I don’t like wvw or pvp so testing them in wvw was really hard for me.

Soulbeast -I do not like the direction your taking for Ranger with dagger (melee) seems odd to me and its not my preferred play style so I wont be maining Ranger unless there is a cool build with a bow for Soulbeast, also don’t really like loosing the pets but I understand some people wanted that option.

Firebrand – I liked the mantra’s and I like the axe on Guardian but i was hoping it had some sort of mystical attack that attacked at a short range not melee range so I do not know if Ill be using axe on my Guardian yet. I’m happy with the direction of condi but Firebrand will need to apply more than just fire to enemy as they can just cleanse one condi off real quick and easy.

Elementalist – was cool animations but felt very lackluster damage wise and I’m not sure if I’m keen to take light Armour classes to that close range to the enemy.

Scourge – was my favorite I will be totally rocking a scourge on release instead of Reaper. Damage was good but some of the range on skills needed to be adjusted I think. Love they have a portal as well now.

Holosmith -was really cool and fun I liked the Holosmith a lot. Very nice animations. Decent damage on some of the skills too. I never really liked Engineer until now.

Renegade – I was really excited for as I really couldn’t stand the Revenant class but now they are getting short bow I was hoping to play with mine for a change. Concept I love but needs a bit of tuning on the damage, mobility and condi – cleansing. I actually like the summon skills thought they were original and neat looking.

Deadeye – was pretty cool too, will take some practice to not get ganked while crouching though that was a bad experience lol. I’ve always wanted a sniper so I’m totally going there when we get POF.

Mirage – wasn’t really impressed with Mirage TBH but I did not spend much time on it, I’ve always loved Mesmers for the utility and support they bring to Tyria like the portal’s for JP’s etc but Mesmer damage is very bad as it stands currently.

Spellbreaker- did not even test it, cant stand warrior class period as I find them very clunky and slow.

I’m personally very excited for mounts and probably will use the waypoints far less as I love running around exploring the maps. I really like what they have done making it a mastery thing and giving the mounts a starting attack skill sort of thing its neat and I cannot wait.

I agree with you OP the new legendary’s are a legendary pain in the butt to make and leave a huge hole in your gold pocket. Ive got 6 legendarys now and 3 of them are HOT ones I wont be making another HOT one due to the time, effort and cost of them.

I agree with you dace.8019, I have screws in my fingers so mobility in WVW or PVP is really difficult for me physically and I to prefer PVE content not PVP play style. I don’t believe WVW and PVP are end game content for everybody. I think they should look at an alternative way to get this for players who are not PVP inclined like a repeatable achievement track of some kind would be cool. I also don’t like the aggro and abuse I get in WVW and being kicked out of squads because Im a ranger or because I die a fair bit and not as good as other seasoned PVP players, sure they don’t know i have a physical disability but I liked GW1 cause the player base was friendly and helpful and in WVW and PVP they are abusive and toxic if your not super great at it. I’m on my 6th legendary now and I really would love a legendary back pack and armor but you have to be quite good at maneuvering for raids and fractals so that’s out of my reach for now sadly.
I have enjoyed the odd run if you get a nice group of people but that does not happen very often unfortunately.

I don’t know what the fuss is all about? They aren’t hurting anyone in fact necrosis protecting berries benefits everyone and I personally like when they are there, I will add most of the time they aren’t AFK cause I see them chatting in map chat. Imo there okay let me be.

I agree with OP, Im almost done crafting my Zoja’s Ascended armor set with only gloves and shoulders left to craft. I have not been able to afford to buy materials from TP and have been trying to farm for the leather and the cloth. Well I can tell you if you do not have cash to TP the mats then get ready for a incredibly tedious & painful task of trying to find hardened leather and Linen. I agree Anet needs to increase the odds slightly because this could potentially put players off the game eventually but I am very stubborn and persistent. Im also trying to craft Bifrost which almost did put me off the game.

Thanks Chad, I will try that

Hi there,

I’ve been playing Guild wars since Guild wars 1 was released and the same for Guild Wars 2. Because I am a mostly solo and casual player in GW2 I have not been able to do a lot of things in the game such as Fractals, Dungeons, crafting legendary’s & Ascended gear. This is just my feedback and opinion and it is not meant to step on anyone’s toes or grind anyone’s gears for reactions, this is just how I feel personally about a couple of things in game that are bothering me.

I really love GW2 as I love exploring and have completed the map fully on my main character (my Ranger). I am not a PVP person never have been never will be. When I did map completion you had to get the WVW maps as well which nearly killed me to do.

Anyway to the feedback part of this.

1. I am part way through crafting the Bi Frost and have crafted the experiment. Upon researching what was required to craft further I see I needed 500 Zhaitan marks and also a Gift of Battle. This has really put a dampener in my spirit because I suck at PVP and when I say I suck I mean I really suck. The Zhaitan marks I can most likely get after continuous grinding now that I have found a nice Guild of people to join after playing for 3 or so years. I am not too keen to do PVP to get this Gift of Battle and it has almost put me off continuing to try to craft the Bifrost now.

2. My second gripe is to do with the story mode and the NPC’s in the story with you. Now this is the same in HOT as well. I find them incredibly unresponsive when you are in the instance you will be getting fully attacked enemies in among-st you and the NPC’s and they just stand there doing nothing???? Not sure what happened to the amazing AI that was part of the GW1 experience? Sadly I find them no help at all and forgive the negative remark but they are utterly useless. I noticed they do not attack until an enemy actually hits them I do not think they are supposed to be this dopey? I did claw island with my new Thief last night and they just stood there while I had to fight off hordes of undead getting downed alot. This did not really make for a enjoyable playing experience to be honest and was quite stressful.

Well they are two most pressing things bothering me about the game right now and would just like to add I do love this game very much always have and I am sure you can make it better for us little solo-ists and explorers.

Thanks for your time.

I enjoy the game but I am finding getting ascended gear and legendary weapons to hard as I am just a casual solo player who has not done dungeons and I really only do PVE. So yeah I’m finding it hard to get that nice stuff.

I agree with OP on most of what you said especially VB and that being ridiculously hard to wander around in even as a level 80 character.

I’ve been finding a lot of empty maps too, but it could be my hours as I am in New Zealand.
