Guild Wars 2

My Sweet Lily.1952:

Must be a bug in the hint in the Tempest collection.

Machined weapons are gained by completing a collection. You open said collection by purchasing a Plated weapon (so if you need the Machined Warhorn, buy a Plated Warhorn).

Plated weapons can be purchased after completing the Dragon’s Stand meta event. Each weapon costs 150 Airship parts, 150 Aurillium, 150 ley-line crystals and 3 Reclaimed weapon parts (gained by salvaging 3 Rare-tier Reclaimed weapons).

Do note that one piece of the Machined collection states it’s obtainable from Noxious Pods, but is actually gained from opening the Dragon’s Stand meta event chest at the end (so you need to complete the meta twice). Also a place of power is a Hero Point that only needs communing, and the weapon part needs to be OILED (can be purchased from the TP).

I believe that is all there is to know about gaining a Machined weapon

Yes the Tempest collection shows the machined warhorn like all collection do and we know how to obtain the machined weapon….that is not the problem.

The problem is that instead of the Tempest Shoulder piece being accepted in the collection (for fully unlocking the elite spec) it shows an image of a machined warhorn and states this is obtained from fully unlocking the tempest spec.

So we have the machined warhorn showing TWICE for our collection. But I have not played my tempest in a while to see if obtaining the warhorn will complete both sections, as map completion is bugged for my tempest. Just waiting on the fix.

Same thing happened to me on my elementalist, killed the treasure mushroom (found it thanks to Mazarox’s screenshot ) and the item went into my warrior collection. I tried killing it several times, nothing dropped for a second time, no collections updated. Tried deleting the item, have killed the treasure mushroom 3 times since deleting it and get nothing.

It just another thing that is bugged with collections, and the tempest collection is full of them..looking at you machined warhorn that SHOWS TWICE in our collection, instead of our shoulder piece we get from fully unlocking the elite spec. Just got to wait until they fix all these bugs I guess.

I have 100% Verdant Brink, Auric Basin and Tangled Depths, and I have not received a single reward for any of the maps. Hope this gets fixed soon.

Hey guys, so I am working towards getting the north wind collection to unlock the ascended warhorn for my tempest.

However I have noticed that it states I need a machine warhorn, which it states should be obtained from completely unlocking the elite spec! Although when we complete the elite spec we actually get a shoulder piece, and not a machined warhorn.

So is this collection wrong for the tempest, or am I missing something here? I looked on several of the other ascended weapon collections for the elites available and they all show that it is the piece of armour you obtain, that is required.

Also note the last item required on the list is also a Machined Warhorn, which states is created from plated weapons purchased with crystaline ore in dragons stand.

Wow that spoiler in the title….such a troll post! Mods should at least change the title asap!

So with the following from last nights live stream being announced:

“Gift of Fortune/Gift of Exploration not being used in new legendaries. Gift of Exploration is for map completion in Central Tyria and not required for new legendaries which require only world complete in the new HoT zones. After HoT ships, we will be add a salvage table for Gift of Fortune so you can salvage the parts and get back all the components you can put in the new Mystic of Fortune.”

I was just wondering if there were any plans to allow us to salvage any other type of craftable gifts we may have in our banks that we know longer want/need?

I currently have a Vial of Quicksilver in my bank which has been sitting in there for almost 1.5 yeas now, as I changed my mind on what legendary weapon I wanted to craft. I have been keeping a hold of this, whilst hoping that we would be able to salvage these in the future, as it cost a lot of gold to craft.

What are your guys thoughts?

Yeah we knew Wintersday was coming on the 16th, but many of us hoped we would get episode 8, as we believed that would be the final episode, last 2 pieces of armour, and at least resolve some, if not all of the cliffhangers we have had over the last for episodes.

Long breaks between seasons I understand, but constant breaks during seasons, gets rather annoying, and leads to many episodes being just catch up episodes when they return. I would hope that they can change this format in the future seasons.

I am sure people have stated before that the living world/story could continue during festival/holiday events, but I can not seem to find anything in regards to this.

Also why the sudden move of Wintersday from LA to DR, when Halloween did not move? The rebuilding was on going during this event, yet they still had time to deck out the place, just seems rather odd. I do hope that we do see the rebuilding of LA end within the next coming months.

All in all, I am just disappointed. Let us hope that when the remaining episode(s) return in January that the impact this story has on Tyria, is as huge as they say it is or there will be a lot of disappointed players.

There you go, don’t think you can get them any other way.

Sorry to disappoint you, but Ascent to Madness is not available this year. This year is a repeat of last years event, Blood and Madness. Here is the release page: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/releases/october-21-2014/

Whilst this years Halloween event may be the same as last years, I would still expect a preview. Did we not get a preview for the Festival of the four winds, which was basically the same as the previous years events, with a few changes?

With the destruction of Lions Arch, we can assume that the layout will have to be totally different. I still find it strange why the people of Lions Arch would waste time and resources to decorate for Halloween, when the place still lies in ruins for the most part.

I would of like to have seen either LA repaired by now, or to have the racial home towns to be decorated instead, but I guess that would be too much extra work.

Also keep in mind that this will be the first Halloween event for people in China, and for other new players who have joined recently. So to say its just the same as last year, and given no preview, is kinda a let down.

Halloween is my favourite holiday event, and for us to be just given last years holiday event with little to no changes, I would be rather sad. Would love to see the mad king dungeon and reaper’s rumble brought back in some form from the first year.

I guess we will just have to wait and see! o/

So basically those of us who went ahead and crafted the pet seedling are now screwed over until some future update, which will be when?

How is this fair at all, I carried on crafting unaware that the seed had changed and so did many other people. The fault with the seeds changing in the first place was due to a bug released within the build, this is not down to the players and we should not be punished for it.

I am less than happy with this response, I am not going to force myself to re-farm items to re-craft the original back item a second time. Seriously let down by this.

Yeah same boat for me, stuck with the pet seedling, unable to progress any further. Please look into a fix for this, do not want to have to re-craft the first back piece all over again just to get that cultivated seed.

Woke up this morning to a Christmas card from ArenaNet. What a nice surprise to receive in the mail

I hope you guys are enjoying your holidays, and I wish you all the best for 2014!

So if there is a 1st place winner, a tie for 2nd place (both receive 2nd place rewards), then the next server will get 4th place rewards, not third place rewards? Hearing different things from different people

What we have just now is only the first part of the halloween update. We have this for 2 weeks, and then on 29th the next part. But I do agree there doesn’t seem much to do, maybe its because we have done all this before, although there is still a few more story aspects to do once we have enough achievements to continue the story, which I am looking forward to doing. Lets just hope it gets better.

For me it was an undiscovered area in Brisban Wildlands.

In the South West of the map there is an area called Aurora’s Remains, you get there from going north of the skill point, which is just north/west of Toxal Bog.

This seems to be the same area that everyone misses for the Magumma Exploration achievement.

Edit: Just noticed maddoctor beat me to it with this area :P

Go to Pearl Islet and speak to Inspector Ellen Kiel, and you can do the last solo instance for the achievement. It should be marked on the map as well.

Yes I can see on the events page it states the event starts June 5th, however on the patch notes it states June 4th as the start date for the karka queen meta event:

Even if you manage to capture Canach, can you also foil his master plan? Defend the new settlers on Southsun Cove from a massive final onslaught of rampaging wildlife or die trying! And beginning June 4, a hulking monstrosity joins the fray—without your help, it will destroy the settlers and everything they’ve built!

Can anyone clarify which date is correct?

Feathers of Dwayna is actually the same skin as The Lover ( http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/The_Lover ), doesn’t seem anyone knows where to locate the longbow version.

was being discussed in this thread;

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/The-Most-Rare-items-in-the-Game

1. Which legendary are you going for?
The Juggernaut

2. Do you have any gifts?
Gift of Mastery & Gift of Fortune

3. Which gift are you working on? And how far have you come on it?

Only need 30 more icy runestones to complete gift of the juggernaut!

Then its just time to farm for more gold to either save up for the The Colossus or to throw some rares/exotics into the mystic forge. (may be awhile lol)

Having same issue here, however I logged out of the game for 1 hour and just went to go back in and I can not connect. Had the same issue last night which was resolved in, however I was not actually kicked from the game.

Error Code: 42:6:3:2060

nvm just got in

Not sure if thats the same code you guys are getting.

Got back in game aswell. Cheers for the quick fix guys

error code : 42:5:7:878:101

Piken Square (EU)

WvW – Gandara Borderlands, kicked to LA that never loaded.

Hey Guys,

I was ejoying an evening in wvw, and was notified that a new build was available and that I would be moved to LA. So LA loading screen appeared, however it seemed to be stuck and I was then kicked out due to error code 42.

Now I can not get back in to the game at all.I can get to character selection screen and after this I get stuck at loading screen to only receive the same error after a min or so.

Anyone else having the same issue?

I have only been suffering from this sound bug very recently (alarm/siren noise, nothing else), within the last few days, before that had no problems what so ever.

Mostly occurs whilst I am in WvW, although it has also occurred during dragon events and dungeons.

Any news on when this will get fixed as its rather annoying to have to log out to fix this, especially if your in the middle of a WvW match.
