Guild Wars 2

Konig Des Todes.2086:

Ley line hubs is just where there’s an intersection of ley lines. If ley lines are common, then unless they all run parallel (they don’t), then hubs should be as common as ley lines intersecting.

Which should make them rather common. Given that waypoints run off of ley line magic.

Well, you’re assuming the ley lines are perfectly straight while I think they’re more squiggly and random. When we follow the ley line to Mordy at the end of S1 it goes back and forth a lot.
Also, two ley lines crossing doesn’t a hub make. I’d imagine they’d be a lot rarer because of how infrequently multiple ley lines converge.

As for the Asura not figuring this out, the biggest offense to an Asura is telling them they don’t already know everything. This is also why they didn’t figure out they were drawing power off a sleeping dragon- they had assumed they had the situation firmly in control and knew exactly what was going on. It was Asura-designed, therefore flawless. They probably theorized about why waypoints worked in certain places but they had figured out where they should go to work and thus no further research was needed.

EDIT: immediately after writing this I found another thread that talks about mapping ley lines by following where Mordy’s tendrils are showing up and they are indeed squiggly.

There’s no Friendly Fire because you have friendly fire.
…Wait.
I figure that there’s a lot the ele’s doing behind the scenes that we as players aren’t directly in control of or even aware of. The ele (not the player) is carefully controlling their abilities so that, for instance, walking through your own magma aoe doesn’t burn you or your allies. It’s not such a stretch to assume that an ele casting spells in a wooden building could “pull” the waves of heat away from the walls and back into the fire itself, just like how using air spells in a Priory library won’t tear books off the shelves and send them flying everywhere. Note that this has absolutely zero lore basis as far as I know but eh, it works.

I’ve gone down the list of recommendations, but so far nothing has changed. GW2 still crashes while loading character select. I haven’t yet upgraded to Mountain Lion for two reasons: one is that I still dont even know if it will work, and the other is that even if it does work, I plan to get a new (non-Mac) laptop within a month and so it would ultimately be wasted. If I do wind up giving in and buying it, then I’ll be sure to update this thread as to whether that worked, but until then thank you all for your help. Goodnight.

Thank you for your help, but so far no dice. Before posting, I tried updating my software, but that clearly didn’t help. I have power source issues, so I cant unplug my laptop (stupid, I know :P) and running the repair script didn’t change anything. Its getting late, and I’m not done with the list yet, so tomorrow when I have time I’ll return to this. Until then, thanks for your help and I’ll post whatever happens here, for good or ill.

This is the message that pops up when it crashes: http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/9051/screenshot20130603at111.png
Im using a version 10.6.8 Mac laptop with a 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5 processor and 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3 memory.

I’ve been trying to log into GW2 recently, but as soon as I log in and character select begins to load, the game crashes. Does anybody know a way to fix this, or do I just have to wait until it gets fixed?
