Guild Wars 2

I’ve crafted a few legendaries over the years, and my issue with the newer ones isn’t the time needed, or their cost, but rather the method of aquisition.

I crafted The Shining Blade a month ago, it took under 3 hours and the only thing that felt legendary aside from the wood and mithril cost, was the amount of time I spent at a crafting station in Lions Arch.

Chuka and Champawat has been the only one I enjoyed the “Legendary Journey” of.

robertjan.2197:

If you received a level 80 boost from HoT, will you get one more for purchasing PoF?

Have bought it and can confirm I have another level 80 boost up there with the account slots

I thought it was Saw Gerrera

Rytlock has been possessed by the spirit of Master Togo, giving him new and strange Ritualistic powers.

In other news, Shadow the cat is really melandru.

I think the more popular weapons, Sword, Greatsword, Longbow, dagger will come with the expansion, and will need the expansion map completes to craft. Just an extra reason to buy it, from a marketing perspective.

I think it will be a warhorn, and I’d like to see a Rin theme warhorn, perhaps the “Stormcaller” that was the mouthpiece to the Horn of Doric in GW1

It would be awesome if the leaks were actually the greatest feat of misdirection since “The Usual Suspects” and we are going to Cantha, but I don’t think so.

Yes This works.
Right click on your gw2 shortcut icon on the desktop.
select properties, in the target field paste the following
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\Gw2.exe” -assetsrv 64.25.41.2
Note the addition at the end with a space after "
Good luck!

This little help, i am able download update, but still i am not able log in, it write: Connection failed, please try again

I tried this and it worked – i was on login screen. But i cant login now …

I created a new shortcut and added -assetsrv 64.25.41.2 to the end of the target field and like you, first time it would get me to the login screen, but not connect to the login servers, but on the second try it worked.

Im in!!

Mines fixed, tyvm all in CS

Asuaka.1528:

I did not receive the item. When I reached legend I got the achievement + title but the January 26th patch removed the achievement (and the 6AP it awarded). I still have the title unlocked, but the achievement and AP are missing. Did you already send out the item to everyone or are you still in the process of sending them?

Same here, got legendary with 50 minutes of the season left, got the tickets, title and nameplate badge, but the achievement is missing in pvp conqueror.

Pyromagnium.4751:

I am so close. Why not keep it open until 12pm EST? That would be 9 pm PST. I do not understand. I feel very cheated. Why are we not allowed the full time that we deserve?

May I also have 5 extra hours please? No, wait, make that 8 hours, these guys got to start at 4pm in the afternoon, while for me it was midnight and I was asleep and missed the first 8 hours.

#timezones

I’ve been 1 pip away from legendary 3 seperate times today, I didn’t think I’d make it, but thanks to an epic comeback on legacy managed to get it with 50 minutes to spare \o/

Soloq most of the way with some duo friday with some guys I met while playing, and some duo today with a druid friend (shout out to applerelia and Kalen)

Mainly played reaper, started with a mm condi spreading build and switched to carrion dhuumfire boonstrip. Played some trap DH and druid to get the proffesion achieves for paths I, II and III

LordOtto.2650:

When I see my team is not worth my efforts, I quit, I don’t care, now why should I be banned for that? They should be banned to, because they are not so good players?!

I can live with pip loss due to bad players, no ones infallible, but I can’t abide people that don’t even try, going so far as afking in a ranked match. Especially when the scoreline also has something to do with how many pips you lose.

For example, lost a game today 500-380, but didn’t lose a pip. Everyone tried and fought till the end. Turned out the other team had 3 legendarys.

lost 6 pips in 3 matches today because someones afk’d all game.

At least gives us a proper report function for it which then tracks the reported players behavior for the remainder of the match and gives appropriate dishonour/additional pip loss.

There should be no reason to afk in ranked.

I thought you get a lower mmr rating on classes you dont play, mmr is profession specific.

:( Well gg then. I was gonna go for the backpack, but now won’t bother because I’m set back by what, 2-3 months? Might as well wait for the fractal one. Screw the leagues! W/e

Thx for the info.

You can still get it if you do the daily properly during the next seasons. It’s possible to get all dailies in a single season. It’s even possible to get all the Ascension achievements in a single season just not easy.

The League started December 1st and ends January 26th. That’s 57 days total, but you need 60 for the daily if I recall (15 for each part) so it’s not possible to get all achievements in one season, you will be missing 3 days for the daily even if you play 3 matches every day and do all the other achievements. Unless I’m missing something

You are. Every time you finish a tier, you can immediately do the first day of the next tier, thus saving 3 days.

not true, each time i’ve completed the 15 days achievement (the final one i’ve needed for path I and path II) I havent been able to get day 1 of the next until the day after.

Metatron.5284:

MMR and match making? explain this, look how lopsided the losses are.

At least you got a victory on there.

I’d just won 4 in a row, got to diamond tier 4 and 2 pips (only ever soloq’d), then all of a sudden 10 straight losses and back down to tier 2 and 2 pips.

What has happened these last few days?

Personally I have no idea how good or bad I am, I’d like to think I do ok.

If I’ve managed to get to Diamond this season by soloqing, do these changes mean I’ll have an easier time getting diamond next season? I found sapphire more of a struggle than ruby

Why did people stop rating the names above them? I guess just not reading the thread/OP properly?

“Joxer El Muerto” 7/10 for necro theme XD

I’ve two necros, one for PVE and one for PVP

PVE: Dhuumknight (its what reaper should have been called)

PVP: Cap The Points F S (theres another F in the space, accursed swear filter, because no one ever does)

Try Harathi Hinterlands, I tried for quite some time in queensdale with no success, but there were some in the Diremane Woods area of Harathi and thats where I got mine to drop

During a Ranked PvP game:

I was attacking the henge on Forest of Niflhel when a Revenant used Forceful displacement on me, knocking me under the map and into one of the surrounding pillars.

From inside the pillar I couldn’t do anything other than summon minions (which could move out of the scenary and attack), I couldnt move out or even target enemies

Our team were effectively a player short because of this.

Just got mine after days of trying, I followed the north chain, and this time instead of opening the event rewards straight away (the purple coloured chest above minimap) I waited until northwatch showed as being 3/3.

After the tendril and you get the event chest, the status is still 2/3 for a while until the exaulted has activated the pylon, just wait until its 3/3 before opening your two chests

Ester Sauter.7694:

Hey everyone

We started seeing this yesterday, some people were fixed with the hotfix but not everyone. We are currently investigating the issue and trying to isolate what makes some accounts different from others. A bug has been opened and I"m linking this thread in there, so if people could post their OS and which client they are using and any other information you think might help we’d appreciate it!

Hey,

I didn’t experience this yesterday, this is a new phenomenom today, I quit to desktop around 17:15 server time (uk time) for dinner logged back in 18:00 and my game updated (although there are no patchnotes for today, has there been a patch today since the balance hotfix?)

My y-axis setting, clock setting, all the autoloot settings and enable camera shake were all reset to default, although profanity filter is left untouched as “none” (thank God, it got some use)

Key bindings remain the same as I had previously set

64 bit client, Windows 10 64 bit Pro

Beldin.5498:

Coco.5670:

Still happening, crash pretty much once every world boss. It’s definitely not my rig, I spent over 2k on it, and ran GW2 on max settings with 0 crashes or any performance issues, until HoT came out.

You spent over 2k on a your PC and it still can’t run a 64-bit OS ?

Why are you assuming he’s on 32 bit OS?

Theres plenty of people that have been having the same crash on 64-Bit Operating Systems, myself one of them.

Thankfully I haven’t crashed once on the 64 bit client since it was released

The enchanted treasure chest from the exotic hunter collection is missing from the charr home instance.
I have it in the other home instances, but it has vanished from Hero’s Canton.

same here, on 32 bit and 64 bit client.

aurora glade, diessa plateau.

The map IP its trying to load into is: 206:127:146:119

-maploadinfo shows every value at 0 except the time which reaches 30 sec then disconnects with the error code

Killed a treasure mushroom and got the Invisible mushroom Spore item required for all the specialisation collections, yet it only unlocked in the warriors “wild abandon” collection and not the others.

Wouldn’t mind so much, but I looted the item as a necromancer

At first I thought I was mad.
My friends on teamspeak thought I was crazy, then I thought I was being trolled by a dev

The treasure mushroom ran up a tree I couldn’t climb and backed away from the edge so I couldn’t hit it, only appearing at the edge to have a look as I lay downed to random mobs that had killed me as i was scrambling to climb up after it. I rallied, it backed away again.

GG anet, GGWP

im having constant crashes too, only since HoT, but mines windows 10 64 bit.

I assume the most recent crash is the one at the bottom of the report?

I had the same issue with the cinematic audio during the cutscene in the first story instance, Rytlocke appeared, all I had was music but no sound effects or speech.

I went to fractals lab to replay the cinematic there, to see if it was a global issue, and found during the fractals cinematic, I had dessas speech, but no sound effects or music.

When the speech ended (during the mossman scene) I found I could faintly hear something, in the background. Turning my speakers volume up to the max let me hear the sound, its like it was playing really low.

Messing around with audio options during a second replay, i found dessas speech was tied into dialogue volume, and the rest of the cinematic was tied to Environment volume. Turning Environment volume up to maximum, matching dialogue volume, I could hear the cinematic as intended.

Not replayed the beta cinematic again yet to confirm, but check your environment volume setting

Hope this helps

EDIT:

Just replayed the story, matching environment levels to dialogue let the cinematic play with full sound…….EXCEPT Rytlocks speech, it was missing

Nicknobreak.7543:

The rest is up to you but i recommend not traiting into BM as your pet spends half of the major fights dead.

Ignore this, no idea “who let this guy in here” a dead pet is a sign of a poor ranger who doesnt manage the pet well, if at all.

BM is not just about pets and has a few good options in it.
Resounding timbre gives you regen and swiftness, really good in roaming builds for mobility about the map and regen can be used to outpace conditions, there’s a gs/s+a build out there uses this for great effect.
Also for roaming, "Go For The Eyes gives on demand blinds

Two handed training also gives you swoop more often for mobility or escapes and a source of fury for remorseless.

Lastly honed axes is great if you use mainhand axe in a frontline build, or Zephyrs speed cos who doesnt love the extra burst or safe stomps quickness allows?

While roaming, Beastly warden provides you an on demand interrupt and prevents classes such as guardian use their stunbreaks that require a target (like judges intervention)

Personally I use this
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vNAQJATRnUqAtsgtCC2CCUtgh/gaf9MIA6+tG2hPN+hjugNVA-T1CEABLquDBPAgEVJYLlgGcBAYSJWTKPyZ/h20FAwhA4hjAQAAEgbezs5NDc0je0je0j2RP6RP6RPapAsbYF-w

As part of a 5 man focus party, my job is back line immob and necros. Swoop in, entangle, LR out. Sic em is great for enemy mesmers and thieves, removing their ability to stealth and making them prime targets for the rest of the group when they’ve finished their current burst target.

New elite spec: Paleontologist

Gain a pet Dinosaur. Called Denver.

The last bow animation fix ruined shortbow……..

I can’t comment to be fair, never really used them, but if they are reliably blasting inside your combo fields, then stick with them.

That won’t happen at later levels, the bear stops being a decent tank around level 60ish if I recall correctly, its also not the best pet for wvw/pvp should you venture into those game modes, enemy players know to ignore it

Dogs or wolves are better for a cc/damage mix (fear or immobalize) spiders for some cc and aoe poison, cats and birds are great for dps (birds also blind, which is invaluable imo vs some mobs that hit hard)

stick a sigil of earth on the shortbow, you’re less reliant on hitting from behind then to get bleed stacks up, and also make use of your precision (60% chance on crit to give bleeding for 5 sec)

You’ll see the effect of krait runes more with entangle, as you’ll be in amongst the enemies to use your elite

If using entangle with wilderness knowledge, also consider krait runes, they’ll boost condis and add to entangles effect.

Quick draw is good for reducing torch 5’s recharge, but not so good when swapping to sb, consider Light on your feet for the piercing effect on shortbow, hitting multiple targets, especially wvw camp guards when camp capturing can not be undervalued

Before the balance patch I ran a trap build which was dire armor and rabid accessories, and found the loss in precision for crit chance wasn’t actually that much, but the boost to vitality was worth it (Vitality aids in absorbing condis, which ignore toughness)

Ranger feels very “meh” in spvp since the balance patch, even trying Euras build, its just not in a good place, and i’m very disenchanted with the game as a whole at the moment.

Introducing trapper runes is not the answer, while it warrents inclusion in spvp, all that will do is force similar struggling rangers into a trap orientated build to feel viable, destroying build diversity.

I’d rather they addressed things like off hand range, healing spring, lack of viable condi clear in a condi buffed environment (Sotf and emphatic bond in the same line, really?)

Basically you stick a sigil of earth and blight/torment on the longbow to get it to apply condis when you crit, you also need fairly high critchance from precision to get them to proc, and some condi damage on your gear and from the wilderness survival traitline to give them some punch.

Taking torch on the alternate weapon set will also give you an additional fire field your arrows can combo through to inflict burning.

Someone else could probably improve upon this, but it gives you significant condi damage as well as packing a bit of a punch from power

I just ran around eb with 40+ fps, 48 average ping, and all 5 weapon skill icons flashing at me doing nothing.

This is just since the last patch, March 16th and only in wvw.

Skill lag is horrific since the last patch (stab change), I just ran around with 40+ fps, 48 average ping with all 5 weapon skills icons flashing at me doing nothing.

My download got up to 1582mb while I was afk at dinner apparently patch is only 969mb :/

Been at 1 file for an hour now after multiple restarts, trying a repair atm

All this talk of GPU, GPU makes little to no difference once you get past a certain tier of card.

I went from a 295 GTX to a 660ti to a 670 and noticed 0 difference in fps with this game.

What makes the difference is CPU clock speed, I went from a stock i7 920 to a 3770k clocked at 4.6ghz and thats when i saw a decent increase in fps, but then it was only 10-15 fps over the old i7.

Currently I get a solid 60-61 fps in div reach or LA, everything Max

The ssd helps, when I tested, loading a fully populated LA on a samsung spinpoint f1 took 93 seconds, but on my ocz vertex 4 it takes 12 seconds.

Cynz.9437:

Many skills that use teleporting to move the character will not activate if the target is not in range (probably the ones that require target or can deal damage while moving you).

RIP trickery steal, inf. signet, strike…… RIP thief in pvp/wvw? :|

I hope not, inf. signet is a great gap closer

nvm the events still spawn on time, the times just showing an hour ahead of what it actually is

So this morning, 8:40 UK time I noted the time for Jungle wurm event, via that_shaman’s timer on dulfy, would be 10:15 (for the daily), got there and somewhere in the last hour or so, the timers have changed, being put back an hour, Wurm didn’t spawn and is now due at 11:15.

Is this intentional?

NeXeD.3042:

you can’t see his or your own MMR……… so please tell me how you are in the same grouping.

Thats the question I’m asking.
How did someone, as bad/borderline average at pvp, like me, get put in the same match vs someone as good as him.

Average queue times were 1 min 32 sec.

NeXeD.3042:

Safari.3021:

I’m an average player, skillwise, at best, yet 2 hours ago I ended up on spiritwatch vs a team containing The Lord Helseth.

How does someone like me get put in the same grouping as the mesmer from TCG?

You aren’t in the same grouping…. he’s got more points you just have him friended

Thats nothing to do with it, I friended him after for the screenshot to see where he was in leaderboards

Branden Gee.2150:

I’m pretty sure it will show the guild name if there is a majority on the team. Else it will show the highest MMR, or it might be your character.

Edit: I don’t remember I’ll check in the morning.

I played some PvP on saturday for the first time since the patch, mostly unranked arenas.

However, when I joined some friends to make a team for Ranked arenas, each of the ranked games I played announced “Team Robin Bundles” (my character name) even though two of the five of us rep’d the same guild.

Oh and also I’m the worse player out the 5, I can’t see how my mmr would be higher, especially since the others were better and had played more pvp in ranked arenas since patch

Don’t worry too much, the treasure chest is really poor, Mawdrey II gives you better stuff
