Guild Wars 2

Yesterday when we raided the first wing, Vale Guardian would walk to the center and then back to us in phases 2 and 3. This would happen around the place where the green guardian spawns in the split phase.

but i want to fight for my home server underworld, or in another case move me back to vabbi as a homeworld…

Server Linking was introduced some time ago to help the low population servers have more WvW population. This happens through WvW Server Linking. Read more:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/wuv/World-Linking-Beta/first

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World#Currently_linked_worlds

You are fighting for Underworld but also the other 1,2,3 servers that are linked together with your server. If you want to fight “only for 1 server”, move to a higher populated server that isn’t linked to any other (mostly T1 servers). The WvW window shows Vabbi as a “main” server because it’s the server Gunnar’s Hold and Underworld are linked with. If another server was linked with Underworld, it would show Underworld as “main” server.

+1. Me and my friend went to do Not So Secret the other day and I was just surprised.. ANet broke so much stuff with the latest patch it’s insane…

Enable Autotargetting in the Settings
Also very good to be enabled:
Lock Ground Target at Maximum Skill Range
Allow Skill Retargetting

if youre playing WITH your friend then only ONE of you needs it unlocked…

Well yeah, but my friend wants the rewards so she needs to own the Season 2 episodes as well.

Ragnarox.9601:

Why don’t you change gems into gold? And send her gold. Or you can buy some weapon on the TP for 250 gold and give it to her. Then she sells it and buy the season 2. Problem solved.

Because I don’t have enough gold and I can’t farm that much gold. Also, if I exchange gems for gold, it’s a bit more expensive than to convert gold to gems. That’s why I’m offering this trade….

Hey guys!
So I contacted ANet about this and they said to post here.
I want to gift my friend the full Season 2 pack so we can play through it together. Sadly I spent my money on HoT and that’s how I have so many gems and she can’t afford to buy gems, and neither of us can farm that much gold

So the idea is to implement gifting of the Season 2 Complete Pack from the gem store.

Also, I got another idea but I don’t know how allowed it is:
I’ll trade someone items from the gem store of value equal to the price in gold of the Season 2 Complete Pack. Right now, it’s 232g13s66c for 1280 gems but I’ll gladly give items of value 1300 gems for that amount of gold.

Thank you very much

Had the same thing happen to me.. just go to spectator mode and then rejoin a team, that fixed it for me

True but most MMOs have rules pertaining to the use of multiple accounts on a single computer especially if you are moving content between the accounts. So I wanted to see if we could get some clarification on this.

Many players play GW2 on multiple accounts, myself included. The thing about this HoT pre-purchase is that you either apply the key to your existing account and get HoT + all the bonuses OR you create a new account that gets HoT access and all the bonuses. You can’t apply HoT to your main account and make a new account separately. Hope that clarifies everything

Same problem here. According to my developer tools the files:
https://guildwars2.staticwars.com/wp-content/themes/guildwars2.com-live/css/gw2.4104382584.css?ver=3.5.2
and
https://guildwars2.staticwars.com/wp-content/themes/guildwars2.com-live/js/_config.2029084577.js
both return a 404 error message.

Files from static.staticwars.com load without any problem (for example:
https://static.staticwars.com/combo/_/yui/3.9.0/cssreset/cssreset-min.css ).
(Europe calling using the google dns settings)

ok, that link u posted works fine, just the two other files aren’t working / loading 404 error here too.. strange

Maybe its has something to do with the same size of both files? I mean its strange for me that both size has the exact same size according to Firefox-console…

It might not be the size.. it might be file permissions.. especially if their servers are using a Unix OS.. the permissions might be set to something else by someone and thus leading to this issue I hope ANet realises what has happened and fixes it pretty soon.. -_-

Yep, I’ve had this same thing for like a week or so.. inspecting the code was the first thing I did and I saw I didn’t have access to the CSS. I don’t know why but ANet should fix it, it’s quite annoying.. gonna attach a screen where it shows I don’t have access to the CSS and it shows it’s looking for it. Using Chrome on Windows 7 (previously on Windows 8.1)

So today I logged in and he had already spawned.. but there were many few players, he was one-shotting everyone with his army as well.. so I died a couple times and then he suddenly disappeared O_O and the preparation for the assault on Arah started.. so I’m pretty happy, finally got my kill!! ^__^

Oh, that’s a shame.. ‘cause it’s been almost a week.. I hope I end up in the right map instance soon ;/

Hey guys!
So I’ve been stalking this event for almost a week now, never happened to appear.. is something wrong with it? ‘Cause without it I can’t unlock a trait and I don’t want to spend gold on traits. ;/

Hey guys! So I just noticed something.. The dates on the new Feature Pack posts are a bit messed up on the Feature Packs page.
https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/releases/feature-packs/ <- this one..

Week 1 started a few days ago, when Week 2 started 2 weeks ago.. the dates are meant to be like the April Feature Pack section below this one, it just isn’t thought well. ANet, please fix this, it’s quite odd to look at it When the time comes, make the dates like the old Feature Pack.

Thanks!

See attached photo :P

June 15th 2014 – the issue still persists and can’t be fixed in any other way.. You just have to use the simple party frames or turn off SLI for GW2.. To be hones, I got used to using only one of my GPUs but I turned alternate frame rendering and I get smoother and more stable frames.. I’m sacrificing my party frames, but what the heck.. it doesn’t impact on anything crucial

P.S. BUMP!

Edit:
I’ve configured the profile for GW2 to use Alternate Frame Rendering 2 (you can read more about those modes on the internet) and I’m quite happy, both GPUs are utilized and I rarely get the party frames flickering. You can try

Thank you very much, it’s clear for me now. Totally agree that it needs a clarification.

Hey there! I’ve seen this for a very long time now but haven’t made any threads or anything by now.. I’m completely frustrated by the TP’s Listing Fee calculations.
So, for example, I’m selling a sword for 2 silver. It says the listing fee is 15 copper. And the projected profit is 1 silver 70 copper. It gets double the listing fee for the item, and it’s not just visual..
Is this intended, anything I don’t understand? Or it’s just a bug that’s been there for almost a year (or maybe since launch) and no one did anything about it?
Thanks in advance!

P.S. The picture is just an example, I get this with every item..

Yeah, it was really odd… I could barely cast my scepter 1 skill.. and I didn’t get any loot.. idk what happened, but I definitely didn’t like it ;/ some people got free loot but meh.. needs to be fixed!

I’ve just went to do Maw and I noticed something. The sun is being reflected in the ice as it’s shining brightly.. I looked up and could barely see it behind all the clouds… And the time is 5:15 (server)…

Hey! I’ve been playing s/d a lot lately and I’ve been wondering what actually happens when I attack with my 1 and 2 skills. When 1 is being cast over and over it stacks a number and that number goes higher and higher.. is this the damage I’ve dealt to the mob or what? And how does the 2 skill work? Does it have its damage increased by the 1 skill or how exactly can I calculate how much damage it will deal?

Ever since the 15th of April update I’ve been having issues with the scepter on my elementalist.
Every time (at least that’s how I think to make the bug appear) I get downed, get back up but then the foe is downed, the scepter stops dealing damage with the 1 skill. The only way to fix it is to cancel casting, clear the target, target the foe again and start using the 1 skill again. There’s no other way of fixing it. Here’s a screenshot to show it. I’m casting but no damage is dealt.
Edit: Just happened again when switching between targets with TAB

Behellagh.1468:

Dx12 may be limited to only Win 8 and above if not exclusive to Win 9 or whatever they are planning to call it. To many players on Win 7 for Dx12. Dx11 maybe but it would require a complete restructuring of the game’s renderer.

DX12 will be exclusive to Windows 8, they haven’t mentioned anything about Windows 7 (I hope they do, many gamers and users still use W7, ‘cause it’s WAY better).
However, no new tech will be required. If the GPU supports DX11, it’ll support DX12
And yeah, I’d love to see GW2 use DX11, it’ll be way better. Too bad devs like to keep it for the majority of users which still run XP, but idk who will be running XP and playing on Ultra.. They should better start rewriting the engine and adding DX11 support, it’ll fix lots of issues And I know it’s a lot of work, but don’t they get much profit from the in-game store?

Yeah. And I’ve found out what the issue is with my main character – if I set Render Sampling to Supersampling, it crashes. If it’s set to Native, everything works fine. Guess I’ll have to play with Native for the moment xD

Thank you for the information.
I’ve done the reset and I’ve found what causes the crash.
It’s when I set the Render Sampling to Supersample. And I don’t know why it only causes the crash with my main character. It didn’t have a problem before so it might be from the drivers. I’ll keep this setting at Native, ’cause it works as it is. Thank you for the support

I’ve already wrote that in another topic.

Hey guys!
I updated the driver ~30 minutes ago.
Since then my game hasn’t stopped crashing when I open the hero panel. And only when I open the hero panel. Everything else works flawless. Didn’t have the issue prior to the beta update. Running 2x GTX770 in SLI.
The error log is big, but what I thought was important:

VerifyAccess failed or denied access with 0×80070716 – 1
Texture missing mip chain: 0×011f2e
Texture missing mip chain: 0×011f30
Texture missing mip chain: 0×014655
Texture missing mip chain: 0×014657
Texture ‘0×0968ef’ dimensions too small
Loading ‘0’ texture failed
Texture ‘0×0968f0’ dimensions too small

I’ve tried running game with ‘-repair’ + will delete the ‘Local.dat’ file.. Nothing works.

Here’s the full crash dump: http://pastie.org/9001357
The issue happens only with my main character I play on every day. No issues with my alts, which unfortunately are lower than level 10.

OS: Windows 8.1 Pro x64
CPU: Intel Core i7-4770k clocked at 4.4GHz
GPU: 2x GB GTX770 OC WF3 4GB in SLI
I have 16GB of RAM, good cooling. I haven’t made any modifications whatsoever. The issue started happening today in the evening.
Running latest beta drivers from NVidia (337.50)

Ok, so I’ve found my issue. I’ve logged on another character and everything works fine. So it’s just my main I play everyday on. Meh, that’s a big issue. Will definitely contact Tech Support. Thank you for your support too, Stormcrow

Well, I didn’t have the issue prior to the drivers update. I haven’t changed anything in my PC, nor the settings of anything. Just the update.
And, as stated above, I’ve tried disabling SLI (I haven’t had any issues with SLI ever), tried repairing, tried everything I could.. idk what the problem is ;/
But oh well… if it’s just me, I’ll see what I can do. Thank you for the response

Sorry for double-posting, but I suppose the issue is with the new drivers, more specifically with the updated DirectX optimizations. Sadly, GW2 isn’t updated to DX11 and, I believe, still runs on DX9… So this might be the big issue. The devs should definitely check this out, ‘cause it’s a huge issue.

So I’ve done everything.
Repaired, deleted the ‘Local.dat’ file, used only 1 GPU – nothing happens.. Still the same, crash when I open the Hero panel.

Here is my full crash dump:

Ok, thank you very much Didn’t think of that spectator→team swapping xDD

Hello there! I started farming sPvP yesterday and I continued today.. but something strange happened on the Skyhammer map… after I respawned (I got killed) and fell through the buildings and got down, beneath the surface where there is water… it’s really strange.. and I can’t get up.. and I can’t die.. I was just standing there ‘til the end of the match. Here’s a link to the screenshots:
