Guild Wars 2

And in CD we have a player who pulls EWP on BL keeps while spamming “50 man blob on inner bay” just to lower the EBG queue so he can get in quicker.

You’re stuck with ’em.

I’ve been unable to get the rewards from a handful of guild missions every week due to the server thinking I’ve already done them. I only complete PvE missions with one guild and they run at the same time every weekend. Even though we don’t do all of them, the Easy Race, Medium Trek, Hard Bounty and PvE Trek are marked off as completed and I never can get the rewards from them.

The idea behind the new icons was that we weren’t pleased with the readability of the old ones. As others have noted, you had to already know what the rank art looked like to know whether someone had achieved a higher or lower rank.

That being said, considering the feedback, we’ll revert them.

This so much.

I think the previous ones were a huge improvement over the originals (I, II, III, etc) and were uniquely identifiable and well made. These newest ones with the update are just too uniform (only changing in color with a barely visible “tick” for each tier)

If you have reforged either the PvP or WvW ascended armor you will need to earn a new piece of PvP or WvW ascended armor.

Reforged ascended armor will not work.

That’s a pretty huge flaw to have an already wildly stat selectable piece of precursor armor become worthless in regards to this legendary upgrade. Ironic too when it’s all about stat changes, and it makes me think this wasn’t thought through very well. There are a massive amount of players that have now essentially thrown entire sets of precursors away.

I hope you guys can change your stance and recompensate players for this. Really sad.

I suspect it’s because there are technical issues that mean they can’t. The server probably didn’t track which illustrious armour pieces were reforged versions of a PvP or WvW armour piece.

Yeah I was thinking that might be it. It’s just really disappointing, I stat changed more than an entire set of them.

What you’re suggesting isn’t logical for 99% of this games community.

I agree with you. That hasn’t stopped the fringe of the community from doing it however.

So you’re saying a system that you can afk and earn your rewards needed takes no more skill than raiding? Dude, have you even raided? It takes way more skill and time invested with party members compared to something that is GUARANTEED compared to a boss kill that isn’t guaranteed.

You can afk rewards in raids too. It doesn’t take 10 players to kill bosses.

There’s also people who literally walk people through the raid achievements for gold. Close to zero effort spent on actually learning the mechanics and game mode to earn Legendary Armor.

Are you serious? Dude, even if that were the case you still need 150 LI boss kills, in order to pay for all that you’d need over thousands of gold in order to spend thousands of gold to craft your legendary armor. You make 0 sense and less than 1% of the community is willing to do that or can do that.

I don’t care if you think it makes sense. I think it’s crazy just as you do but it does happen.

What do you mean throw away? You can still use it, just like any crafted armor.

It’s throwing it away because it’s no longer a precursor.

So if we already changed our entire set of Ardent Glorious Ascended Armor in the Mystic Forge to reflect a build change (which changes it to Illustrious) then we are S.O.L.? Is there any recompense for that?
