Guild Wars 2

New York City Legends [NYC] is now recruiting! At this very moment we’re a small band of 7 members. We’re based in NYC (some of us attend college in the city whilst there are those who have graduated and work in the city!) but welcome anyone to join as long as they’re respectful, welcoming and social! We have a very casual and relaxed mindset but have members with experience dating back to the beginning of GW1!
Right now guild activities aren’t planned but rather done when enough of us are on. Once we get the ball rolling and accumulate a tight-knit family, there is a good possibility of voice chat and a website set up to coordinate future PvX-type events!

For questions or inquiries:
quietlife.4036 (me) or message Krazy Kat (leader) in game!

I’m thinking of transferring to Eredon Terrace because most of my friends play wvw there. However they are last place on the rankings. Does this mean that if I transfer to ET and they hypothetically get last place (again), We won’t be getting tickets for mistforged weapons? How does this work?

I took a hiatus since the end of season 1 living world so it’s been approx a year since I’ve done any pvp so excuse me if I’m spewing nonsense.

Hey there, I’ve been playing the game since beta (quit for 7 months after season 1 ended to focus on nursing school). I’ve been playing it solo for awhile now but I figured i’d try to a find a good guild this time. I’m probably the most relaxed person you’ll know in terms of personality. I try to be friends with everyone around me however there are 2 things I don’t like and they’re probably the top reason why I’m guildless: drama and “know it all” attitudes <- this one’s a biggie (I can care less how much gold/legendaries you have).

In terms of experience I feel like I’ve done everything the game has to offer, 50 fractals, speed runs, aetherpath, etc. but that’s all through my long term experience with the game. I’d rather be in a relaxed laidback active guild environment than be in a guild that requires meta knowledge/run zerks (I personally do but I’ll be the last guy to judge ya if you don’t)/have 5k achievement points or get kicked.

I’m looking for a social, tiny active guild (preferably less than 50 member cap, the smaller the better) so I feel like every individual member is like family. I’d like it if you guys have voice com but if you don’t it’s fine – maybe I can set one up in the future if enough people have a mic. I live in NYC so if any of you guys live in the city that’ll be cool, maybe we can grab a beer sometime in the burb. Cheers.

It’s like 5AM EST as of right now so I’m going to hit the sack soon. Shoot me a mail if I interest you. Happy labor day.

EDIT: I’m in SoS, not that it matters imo with the upcoming global guild update soon

I’ve made over 5 necros with the goal of getting this last hint unlocked so I complete my hint achievement. So far no luck.
I start out by filling up my life force bar to maximum, let mobs hit me untill I’m under 10%, press f1 and still nothing happens. Any ideas or is this just bugged?

Characters keep getting stuck in either Caledon Forest or Twilight Arbor, guesting is a temp fix, don’t know how long this will hold up. 12 pages of replies and we’re not any closer to a fix.

Since Anet has no clue what is going on I thought I might pitch in a potential fix. Try changing your current DNS to google DNS and see what happens. I’ve been seeing some success so far.

Watch this quick 2 minute video on how to change your current DNS to google’s DNS:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdQkPVL2ERg

BUT instead of putting in 8.8.8.8, try using 8.8.4.4.

I was curious about this, so I acquired more information:
Google DNS wiki
And a video in 1080p showing how to enable IPv4 and IPv6 DNS ips

I entered both the IPv4 and IPv6 sets of addresses.
Upon first logging in I got the 42:something error related to firewall. I simply clicked to login again and it went through.
I loaded Dry Top, Eternal Battlegrounds, Edge of the Mists, but Green Boarderlands has been a loading screen for over 2 minutes now.

I have other computers on the same router, do I need to make the settings switch on them? They do not access games online, though. I might try a restart of PC now.

Did you try putting the alternate addresses as well? I put 8.8.8.8 AND 8.8.4.4 for the ipv4 and both the addresses for the ipv6’s too. I believe if you leave the alternate addresses out then you will get the firewall error. You can still play the game normally but the firewall error means you won’t be able to view your guild.

Error 7:11:3:191:101

- Several of my characters are getting stuck in map loading screens, notably LA, Caledon Forest and Fireheart Rise. Waiting approx. 24 hours usually fixes it, Guesting rarely fix the problem (if it does then I usually have to try about 20-30 times), Router reboot/reinstall does nothing.

I’m getting the 7:11:3:191:101 error about 50% of the time I try to zone into different maps. For the past 16 hours my Guardian has been stuck in Caledon Forest. This morning ’s mini patch enabled me to access my character but after zoning from Caledon Forest into Twilight Arbor, it gave me the error again. My Thief is currently stuck in Frostgorge map with the error as well.

Rebooting router does nothing, reinstalling does nothing, guesting only works about 30% of the time. As I have been saying, its like russian roulette at the moment.

Agapitus.4317:

try now to guest and then back on your main quietlife

used both guest passes over and over again, still no success

Character just got locked in Caledon Forest, patch did nothing to fix this error. GG anet, just go ahead and sweep this issue under the rug.

New build seems to have fixed the issue….let’s see how long this lasts. I’m finally able to log into my characters but still weary about zoning to different areas, it’s like playing russian roulette.

Problem is getting worse and worse everyday. Guesting won’t work anymore, ISP and DNS reset didn’t and never fixed the error. After 14 hours I was finally able to log into my character. Wanted to get some daily dungeons out of the way, tried to load into CoF and BAM error comes back. I can’t even play the game at the moment.

It’s clearly on ANet’s side. Too many players from too many different regions and it only started happening after the Dragon Reach update(s).

The interesting thing is, I don’t see anyone from the United States posting – so I’m guessing it’s a international routing issue.

been having this issue since the 29th im in the usa on sea of sorrows server
tried everything to fix this and nothing has helped and had my dailys not reset unless I stayed on the toon I was on when reset happened

The 29th was the Dragon Reach update iirc. It’s good to note it’kittenting Americans, too, though. Means it might be looked at quicker.

Yup, I’m from the SoS server too. I doubt that makes any difference what server/region/ISP anyone’s from. This error is affecting players all across the world.

It’s also important that players do not do anything drastic to their computers that they cannot fix as this is pretty much a SERVER SIDED problem that ArenaNet doesn’t have the hindsight to admit yet.

Guardian still stuck at Fireheart Rise. Managed to guest to another server to fix it. Did CoF with my Guardian and as soon as I left the dungeon to warp back to Fireheart…guess what: I got the error again. Game is totally unplayable at the moment (at least to me).

Post here

Guesting to other servers won’t work for me anymore. This problem is getting worse and worse. I’m 100% certain that it’s not a problem with our end due to the fact that it only happens to certain characters we own.

Some characters play fine and is able to load into maps but other like my Guardian is constantly getting the error in regions like Fireheart Rise, LA, Caledon Forest. It’s currently stuck in Fireheart Rise with the error for the past 14 hours. I can’t do my daily fractals because of this problem due to my Guard having all the Agony Resist…

I hope Anet is able to fix this problem, after some googling it seems like this problem has been rampant for the past several months and Anet techies have been putting this issue off to the side…

EDIT: This problem also exists on Guild Wars 1, it gives a error 007 on my Paragon when I try to load into Kamadan and locks the character on the map just like this error. However I can load into Kamadan just fine with my Monk and Warrior. This is definitely a server sided problem.

ISP: Comcast
Region: US, NY
Server: Sea of Sorrows

The problem is most certainly zone related. Last night I got the 7-11-3-191-101 error when I zoned to Fireheart Rise with my Guardian and it subsequently got stuck at the Fireheart loading screen every time I try to zone in, couple minutes later I get the error every time. Funny thing is I was able to load to Fireheart with my other Characters and play the game normally.

I suspect that certain zones might be “trapping” our characters, unable to load thus giving the error. This can also explain why I might be able to play on my other toons.

Note that I haven’t played the game in awhile (approx 1 year) but this is seriously messed up… All my crafting skills been reset! The only ones that weren’t reset were the two crafting skills I have designated as my main disciplines. What is going on?

I’ve been gone from the game since wintersday 2012, so it’s been a year. Is it possible to replay all these events so I can actually catch up on what’s going on in the game? I’ve been doing fractals and all of the sudden I see these molten alliance, aetherblade mobs that I would like to know how the history to.

So I’m just did level 29 fractals and it bumped me up to personal level 30. However I got no karma for that. However I just did Fractals 19 and got karma as a reward. Keep in mind that I’m these for my dailies to get relics and karma for shards. Any idea why I sometimes get karma and sometimes I don’t?

I’ve just came back from a long hiatus. I just need 102 more obsidian shards to get my twilight. I’ve noticed that the karma trains in Straits are long gone from the release of the game where the train would run in circles killing the priests. That used to be my method of getting shards.. that and dailies/monthly. Any advice?

Now that Phlinx is nerfed and DR has been introduced, where do you all get your 1million karma for your legendaries? I know doing your dailies and the monthly will net you 300k karma a month but 3+ months to get your 250 shards and 77 clovers seems a bit too slow. I’ve read forum posts on WvW being a good place to get karma but doesn’t that require a team of coordinated players? I’ve also been trying to find a good server that has 24/7 straits of devastation karma runs but that doesn’t seem to be going well.

I’ll admit right off the bat that I don’t have a clue about programming but if one works for a major company like ArenaNet and is working on a salary (paid pretty well I assume) to fix bugs, shouldn’t they be able to do it within days..even hours? It’s been 3 weeks and counting…plus Mr. Hrouda just pretty much admitted that they have no clue how to fix this bug “give us more time please/working on a fix/not ready yet”. As another person in this thread said as well, I’m losing faith in your programmer’s abilities.

What we need is confirmation from someone who works at Arenanet on whether or not this is indeed bugged or intended as is.

Does the ring show up at the daily bonus reward or the chest reward? Could one theoretically grind 10-11 all day just for the ring or once at day because the ring is only part of the daily bonus?

I’m very close to getting my legendary and I need to switch servers to a place that always has tons of people karma farming via the loop in straits(am/ac/chopper/giant/aa/grenth/
archmage/lyssa). I’m thinking of switching to Maguuma so can someone from Maguuma confirm/deny this for me? I don’t want to transfer to a server only to find that no one really runs these karma zerg groups and have to wait another 7 days

Dragonbrand used to be a excellent server but now it’s dwindled down to people who just farm cursed shore and CoF/AC runs but become a ghost server at night (WvW precense is growing strong but PvE is just limited to 2 dungeons and mindless gold grinding). Thanks!

At this point I see the point of having multiple lv80s as more of a setback than anything. Just when you think you have finally accomplished something like getting full exotics and fancy arah weapons on all of your characters, Arenanet decides to scale the level of “achieving something” even higher by introducing a new tier of armors and in the future: ascended weapons.

I will just say this: it DOES NOT MATTER if ascended gear is only a tiny bit better than exotics. It is HUMAN NATURE to achieve the best there is whether it is in real life (job/school etc.) or even in MMORPGS. Everyone wants to have the best gear regardless of how tiny the advantage is. It is already frustrating that there is a lack of incentive to do any other dungeons besides brainfart easymode CoF/AC/TA/CM. I rarely see people break the mold and try to challenge themselves with Arah and HotW. Now i expect to see people going straight to 80→ farm the heck out of AC/Cof for some easy exotics and jump straight into getting ascended armor. Who cares about the other exotic dungeons anymore when there is better gear out there to be had?

Even if the the notion of “gear threadmill” in GW2 is tiny, gear grind is still gear grind.

Spend 4G converting into gems and then buying 10 lv80 Transmutation Stones, it’s been 20 minutes so far and it hasn’t arrived in my mail yet so it pretty much ate my money. Is the delivery system lagging right now or did it seriously just ate up my money?

I tried to ask map chat in LA but it’s dead atm. So can you?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Arah-Path-1-Bugged-After-Defeating-the-Final-Boss/first#post614966

In that thread lies the victims of path 1, you can complain there if you want.

Figured, I was about to do path 1 with my group but decided on being safe instead with path 3. Either the developers don’t know how to fix this or they are passing this off until enough people complain. After all this is the part of the forums where people are supposed to notify the employees that a section of their game is bugged. Where is the response?

October 1st patch is here, is Path 1 still bugged? It doesn’t state any changes to Arah Explorable in the patch notes so they probably didn’t do anything about it…does anyone in Arenanet even know about this? I mean this is only the 5th thread about path 1 being bugged.

Feel free to add me, I truely feel I have enough experience in Arah having done all the runs a couple of times already. PUGing the dungeon is usually a hit or miss as you usually get 1-2 people that are incompetent.
I have voicechat and am very laidback, have a dps thief/ mixed warrior and my main character – guardian with 1400 healing (All characters are fully geared in exotics) so i can switch on and off depending what we need for lupicus. Looking forward to hearing from some of you guys. Thanks!

They won’t reimburse your tokens, they’ll just apologize and tell you that they can’t do anything about it.

I’m also a victim here. Just did path 1, Jotun Stargazer died and door wouldn’t open. Basically my group spent 2 hours doing this for some crappy green drops. I don’t expect to be compensated as you guys have “no way to create items and give them to us” (crappy excuse?). Please fix this asap.

i’m bumping this because i was threatened by OP to do it.

The expansions will definitely cost money. Guild Wars 1 is buy to play, all 3 of it’s future releases were buy to play. They wouldn’t change this model.

Bump! Thanks for the responses so far, still looking!

Thanks all responses here and ingame, unfortunately virtually all my friends play on Dragonbrand so as enticing as all your guild pitches are I cannot accept them unless you’re all located in DB as well. With that said, still looking!

bumpity bump, still looking!

Hey all, GW1 veteran and GW2 beta player here that pretty much accomplished what the game currently has to offer with the exception of a legendary weapon. I’m very helpful and know most paths of all the dungeons as well as basic WvWvW tactics.

I’m just looking for people to help/play with rather than feeling like a random in a guild of 150+ People. Sure, after spending some time in Vent with the guild I somewhat get to know them but unfortunately the sheer size and number of people in the guild is just too much for me to acknowledge myself as a true guildy and not just some random nobody in a zerg guild.

I’m in the EST timezone and usually on in the afternoon from 5pm – Late Nights.
I have a mic of course and very very active. Guild wars is the only game I play.
