Guild Wars 2

I’m hoping for Gunslinger with P/P and rifle and a new Traitline which brings back Ricochet. Hoping .

It is another QQ thread mostly for the devs, if they ever check the forums to see what they did:
A terrible job, most of us were expecting more, but this new system gives less options to customize my own builds .
Why on earth did they remove Practiced tolerance and Ricochet ?

After this patch, I’m left with no reason to play this game anymore and I’m so glad I did not pre-order HoT .

Anet should make one plain EB size meadow, 3 spawns, a large hollow middle field for zerg v zergs without objectives, wildlife(npc’s), PPT or “interesting” mechanics. Low budget, lot of fun.

I’m playing from Central/Eastern EU, I never feel like I am 0,5 seconds late for everything.

I played hotjoin as thief for a day, it was a total failure, lost 9 out of 10.

The following day I swapped to guardian and started playing Unranked, won 8 out of 10 matches. (pwn’d every class without a scratch in 1v1s except necros)

I will carry on with Unranked then, until I feel I’m ready for Ranked.

Thanks for the answers

Could someone explain what is the major difference between Unranked and Ranked Matches and how Matchmaking works in comparison ?

As a player new to PVP (but veteran in PVE and WvW) what should I go for, if I like to play with PUGs ?

Megaserver system is a partial success and a partial failure: Not everyone is happy to have “megazergs” on most maps, the problem with many major events, event chains that those won’t scale up to a 100 players, challenge killed. It’s just a mindless massacre of dumb AI for what ? Loot ? No, no loot left, you can’t tag up enough mobs or do enough damage to them to get the proper amount of drops .
I liked the old system a lot more, challenging open world PVE, space for solo and group roaming. Now at Orr temples there are 100s of players, we used to do Grenth with 6 people around , those were epic battles, now it’s just a constant blob mess.
I’d just opt out of this Megaserver, but it would not make any sense.

Sometimes it could be a useful indicator, I got stuck with Dungeon Master title at Aetherblade path / TA . Noobs were coming in all directions, with their aetherblade keys and no knowledge of game mechanincs, after 6 split up groups, I got fed up. Posted 4k AP+ only and managed to beat the Aetherblade path smoothly.
Most of the group were between 4 and 8 k , that is the best indicator we got so far at a glance.
Altough, I’ve played with 10k+ groups in fractals, but they very often blow, don’t know where to stack / what and when to do etc.
It would be great to have something like a dungeon lvl/rating .

Because they might not working on fixing this

My only request about Salvage O Matic would be an option to mute it down.

I’m using the Smallest option for the UI as well, the bottom UI health&skills and the title of targeted enemy are huge, while the font in the TP is small and thin, very hardly readable.

I want to see that Cataclysm of Orr fractal too.

Next time you might find a secret hidden cave, with a chest what gives you precursors daily

This is awesome !
Thanks for posting it, I’m always in CS, doing temples and meta events. By the title I thought you mean Artesian Waters. It took me some time to find the way in, it is the outer side of the Royal Tombs.

There were like 6-8 new builds since it got bugged.
I bought this game recently and I’m embarrased that they can’t fix a major world event like this in 40 days time.

The Marionette event is a lot fun, not too hard, not too easy either.
People qqing about waiting: wurm starts in uneven, marionette starts in even hours .
And you don’t have to stand there for hours, you can do anything in the meantime . The only waiting is 20-30 mins before the event, only if you don’t wanna play in overflow.

Anyone noticed the huge stylized dragon painted on the ceiling with red dye or blood ?
Enhanced it to make it more visible :

A lot people experiencing this bug and I always get it when some epic boss battle is going on.

bump bump bump
bump

800 gems would seem fair, I love my charr guardian but it’s so uncomfortable that the size bumps the camera, hard to do jumps and do jp’s and I’m not always sure I’m in or out of a deadly aoe circle.

During Izzmek escort, at the second beacon the mobs stopped spawning after 1-2 minutes. Now the whole pre event won’t start.

Cursed shore, on top of a sentry, missing my antitoxin injector which dissapeared beacuse of a bug, can’t get it back

having fun with screenshots while soloing risen abomination

Daggerstorm at Melandru Temple event

I got a bunch of kinda good screens here’s a few :

I ended up in a same situation a couple days ago. Aethers was the last path to get Dungeon Master.
I’ve been trying for 5 hours, but every pug failed and left.
I gave it one last chance, entered first to not lose progress because of ragequitters .
Posted the following criteria:
“Aetherpath : have at least 4k AP and dungeon experience "
Most of the group was over6k and I asked the only player with 2k to leave…
We’ve managed to beat the path in 80mins, bested Clockheart at 2nd try.

I’d be interested in that race change kit and would surely spend gem on it.
My charr is way too big and wide what makes it hard to manoeuver, can’t always see I’m in or outside of an AoE circle .

I’d only like duels if there are friendly fights, lasting until downed or something like 10% downed health.
Also if the dueling would be moved to a seperate new (pvp)server, where people could guest in and an option to choose between private or public fight .

bumping this ….

“Time to some real damage .”
My thief mights up everytime I dodge.

It happens when I do major temple event, the battle music won’t stop.
The most odd was when I finished a temple event, ported back to Lion’s Arch, the combat music stopped, then as I fell into water it started again.

Scarlet did it …

Hi
I recommend submiting a request at Customer Service and tell them all the details how and when it happened.
I recently lost 2 of my items , simply dissapeared in front my eyes when I unequipped/swapped gear .
This should be #1 on anet list to figure out how and why items dissapear.
It worries me that I don’t think they got inventory or somekind of an item log, but they have a policy that they can’t send / recover lost items.
I am still kind of angry and dissapointed that my back item is gone, it had the AntiToxin injector skin, everyone has it but I can’t get it again….lost and I liked it a lot.

I often hear it and it scares the kitten out of me , it could be something with sfx channels. Really annoying though.

Recently I’ve lost one of my items which had the Toxic Antitoxin Injector skin, the back item dissapeared out to nowhere, during a simple unequipping before a fractal puzzle.
Customer service can’t replace such or pretty much any items, so there is no chance for getting it back.
I can get one per account and completing the instance with an other character won’t give me another one.

Make Living World story rewards, like skins Unlockable Rewards and put it next to Zenith Weapon Skins and Radiant skins in the Achievements Summary window.
At least make those obtainable for each character we complete the instance/achievemnt with.

I want to flip the Gates of Arah, again and several times a day!
On my server 2 major events are bugged out of 3 in CS.

We want Gates of Arah back

If the environment is not very hostile, you could transform into asura using a potion called : Sinister Automatonic

request #183823

most expensive sigil : around 15g
most expensive rune : around 10g
converting gold to gems to buy 1 Upgrade Extractor (at current exchange rate): 19g
I almost bought one, but backed out when I realized this is one time use only.
It’s a great idea, mostly if you need something out from an unsalvagable karma weapon/armor, but for the 250gem price, the customer would totally deserve 6 uses .

At that time when the back item dissapeared, my bank was full and I was in FoTM.
I immediately relogged, hoping it’s a visibility issue, can’t see it in inventory, hero window and tried at merchant. I also checked in guild stash and alts’ inventories, hoping it’s weird glitch, but unforunately not.
Two pieces of my most precious gear is gone and no repsonse from customer service yet.
I can’t even play this game until this isuue remains unresolved, I don’t wanna lose more pieces of my equipment .

And again: my head armor dissapeared about an hour ago, when I was about to swap them with a double click in the hero window. An exotic armor piece with a Grenth Hood skin, 500gems …. gone in a blink of an eye.

No response in the last 12 hours, so if anyone’s legednary/ascended item dissapears during unequipping or withdrawing from bank that is just gone, even if it’s not the players fault but a game bug.

The last time a 10 stack of ori plated dowels dissapeared during a drag&drop withraw from my private guild’s stash.

Submitted a ticket, thanks for the advice.

My back item dissapeared during unequipping, I am 100% sure I have not destroyed it.

The most bothering thing, that I got that for "The Nightmare is Over " achievement, the Antitoxin Injector back item skin, what can not be re-acquired or purchased .

So next time my ascended gear will dissapear during swapping or unequipping ?!

I have reported it as a game bug, but I’m afraid I won’t get my back item back.
I don’t even mind the item was a 5g Guild Assassin’s backpack, I just wanna get the Antitoxing Skin back.

we already got a topic about this at

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Gates-Of-Arah-Bugged-or-timer-got-changed/first#post3391959

hoping to get a dev heads up or a fix soon

I never complain if the living world story is bugged, though this might have been caused by the Dec 10 update.
Gates of Arah is the most enjoyable end game chain event and should be on the top of "to fix " list.

It’s not a bug, we can’t dye the yellow bits (unfortunately) .

After the recent, almost the day frequent patches it still gets bugged / stuck .
The recent pathes fixed it temporarily until the event failed once.
I’ve tried several NA servers, the same problem everywhere.

This event is still seems bugged , the chain event won’t start at Meddler’s summit, the NPC’s are ready but the event(chain) won’t start.
Server: Sanctum Of Rall
Zone: Orr/Cursed Shore/Meddler’s Summit
