LV10 Black Lion key - 5 days cooldown?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Roundabout.1752

So wait, if the reset is always Monday, does that mean I can get a key on Sunday and another on Tuesday?

Well, even if it’s not the case, this helps a lot. So I can better plan for Tuesdays now.

I was under the impression the cooldown was per account, but knowing this I can better prepare for tuesdays to run those low level characters.

Your impression is correct, 1 lvl 10 storyline key per week per account.

PoF purchase include HoT LS3 maps?

Thx. Probably makes sense to abandon my second account at this point… Too much working keeping them both up to date.

Personally I won’t abandon your second account, I keep extras for daily log-in rewards storage and an account to play on with I just wanna solo also good for trying out new builds.

daily log-in rewards

As many tomes as I have, I don’t mind them in the daily chest.
My biggest gripe is the Essence of luck. This stuff is salvaged from everything, it does not need to be in the daily log in chest. I’d much rather have a selectable bag of crafting materials (t1-6) or mystic coins in their place.

Or if you craft take those mats and craft them up and sell them much more gold that way and takes very little time or throw them in the MF

This only leads to another issue, bulk MF crafting is…..

Well lets put it like this, i hope you like having arthritis.

I’m old as dirt and so far no problems. I craft up my extra mats for the Mystic Forge and the TP about once a week it doesn’t take much just a few clicks no big deal. I like the Gold and granted I’ve only gotten 1 pre from the MF but it was 1 more then I had.

I agree with the other posters getting ripped off could be an issue, especially since there is a cap on how much and how often gold can be transferred between accounts, maybe work out a rent to own agreement

What is the point of Legendary Weapons?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Roundabout.1752

Roundabout.1752

…when you can’t change the sigils like you change their stats?

I mean, what good is a weapon that — in theory — can be used by all your characters, when you constantly have to overwrite expensive sigils with new ones or spend RL money in order to buy tons of upgrade extractors?

It makes the whole thing 100% pointless, unless it’s for the purpose of showing off (or if you like the skin).

Just curious, what Sigil is so expensive or hard to get that using an upgrade extractor would make sense?

Are account-wide guilds an obstacle?

For me a 100% repping Guild would be an obstacle. I play at odds times and having US based and Aussie based Guild allow me to play with a group no matter what time I’m on. What reason is there for 100% repping ? Now that influence isn’t a thing why would a Guild care how many you belong to ?

Are you happy buying rewards?

They wouldn’t be free, when they still cost 10k unbound magic. Furthermore, 50g is not “dirt cheap” for all players – it might be for you, which is great, but for others it presents more of a frustrating problem, thus the reason for starting this thread.

Like I said check the TP there is not 1 single Node that sells for 50g, the closest is Lotus and it’s 69g ATM. Why is not having a Home Instance node a problem or even an issue Blood Rubies aren’t exactly hard to get.

Well, you can purchase things in the Heart of Thorns other maps for Map Currency alone. So, I guess it’s not a complete trend. /shrug

Doesn’t bother me; the very first thing I purchased in Bloodstone Fen was the Home Instance Node.

Hmm – I’m not sure about your first statement, I’m pretty sure all the vendors also want gold for items.

My question is why did you HAVE to pay 50g for the node? If collecting 10,000 unbound magic was seen as too trivial, Make it 20,000 or 30,000 but the rewards should surely be free?

Why should they be free? 50g for a Home Instance node is dirt cheap check the TP.

you can totally raid in exotics. you can totally do fractals (up to i think end of tier 1) in exotics. there are plenty of ways to get ascended gear aside from crafting

thats cute. now go try it irl and watch it never happen. no one will take you. no one.

I’ve pugged Fractals and no one has ever asked me about my gear, not once. Of course I always inform the people I’m with that I’m new to Fractals and offer to step out if anyone has a problem with that, usually it’s not a problem. My experience may be much different then yours but the Fractal players I’ve run across seem to be pretty easy to deal with.

There is no cheapest Ascended Armor, the cost of the Inscription is such a small part of the price best to just craft the set you have excess t6 for, of course that’s just my opinion others may disagree.

gw2 bag slot expansion question

Roundabout.1752

And you have to buy the bag at about 12g or so if you want to max out your bought bag slot for your one character.

Cheap 20 slot bags are easy to come by. Collections, Fractals and Corn cobs are just some of the easy ways to cheap bags, might check WvW I think you can get bags there too.

[Suggestion] World Map Completion Accountwide

I wasn’t suggesting Reward Tracks in PvE, but Rewards Tracks for PvE in PvP and WvW, players who want to do as little of their playing time as possible in PvE would I image appreciate it.

Yet, if you are a PvE player, you have to play PvP and WvW if you want to make a legendary weapon etc, so I don’t see why things need to be made even easier than they already are. Next thing people will be asking for the game to just play it’s self and a I win button.

What PvP do you have to play to make a Legendary?

I think a reward track for when you’re out of masteries and/or at level 80 is definitely a nice idea.

And if I entertain the idea, something that would unlock random or select waypoints (but waypoints only) is not a terrible idea. As long as it doesn’t unlock Hearts and PoIs. And such a track should only be unlocked once you already gotten full exploration on another character.

Making them accountbound all together seems like a bad idea for those people who really like exploring. They would basically be helped along when they don’t want to.

But with the right restrictions and limitations I don’t think it’s unreasonable to let people unlock waypoints on alts once they did it before at least. Could even make it so you can only unlock crucial waypoints near world bosses and dungeons.

Definitely not needed though. You can just use teleport to friend if you want your character to be there and you havent discovered that specific area yet.
The level 80 boost unlocks some as well. And if you’re going for a gift of exploration I would basically suggest to use WvW to at least unlock heropoints. (because gift of battle is possibly needed anyway.)

You are right, Reward Tracks for exploration should NOT ever be account bound.

A reward track for each area Ascalon, Kryta, Maguuma etc that opens Wps only would be nice, not needed but nice for the players who really don’t like PvE.

Concerns about ANet development behavior

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Roundabout.1752

Roundabout.1752

With LS3, Anet’s said that regardless of where LS3+ goes, if you dont have HoT, you cant participate. My guess is it’s going to require masteries.

We might need Masteries but it would be much easier to tie LS3 to a place then a set of skills. I image we’ll need to talk to someone in 1 of the new maps.

Replacing Telep to Friend Stones

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Roundabout.1752

Roundabout.1752

Hi all, back after a long rest. I’ve really been enjoying the dailies on my Mes, helping with jump puzzles, etc.. Question, I occasionally need to teleport using a stone to help players (I help them along on JP’s and sometimes they get into a jam) and I am running low. How can I replace them? I read about 3rd bday, and wedding packs. But I’m past the 3 year mark, and I didn’t see any wedding packs on the gem shop. Is there a way I’ve missed?

Have you considered letting them use their Teleport to Friend stone instead of you using yours? You’re helping them out so why not let them deplete their supplies? Just a thought.

I don’t agree that older players just want to have fun, don’t want a challenge, I am old, I play all 3 modes at least a bit just about every day. I wouldn’t have ever even tried WvW or PvP if they weren’t tied to getting something I wanted. I would have missed out on so much, granted I felt put upon at first, even a little tricked into “having” to do something I was so sure I wouldn’t like, challenge is good no matter your age.
