Guild Wars 2

Looks like re-installing then replacing the DAT file fixed the issue.

Found that the files were read only when I copied them. Removed read-only but I still experience the problem.

I’ll rename the DAT file and try re-installing, then copy the DAT file again.

Hello guys,

I recently bought a new computer and just transferred the GW2 program folder to the new one. I can run the game fine but I notice that it keeps downloading data (around 10,000KB according to the downloader) even before I can login to the game.

Did something break or do I need to start a new installation to perhaps install registry entries or something?

I want the bikinis and school uniform town clothes to be available.

I can second the errors the other players in this thread are reporting. In addition, I’ve been unable to join any games for the last 15 minutes after I lagged out at Foefire.

Does anyone have an idea if this has already been addressed?

In my opinion, the level of coordination required for this type of content should be within the confines of dungeons/raids and not in open world event.

There are simply to many factors that add to the experience (AFKers, inexperience, trolling) in open world that make the event less fun that what it is on paper.

Dear ANet devs,

When can we expect a fix for this?

I was using the runes on a mesmer. Mesmers don’t get passive speed boosts like warriors wielding melee weapons and speed signets for other classes.

As is indicated in the title, the +25% movement speed is not being granted!

Issue seems to be happening again, started on 03/30 and it’s almost as bad as before.

I just logged in to the game and it’s still lagging like hell. Hopefully ANet addresses this soon, but given their track record – I’m not holding my breath.

Vaasgoth.3601:

philippines… 5 mbps connection PLDT ISP… called them up and said no problem on their side… 2-6 secs. attack/skill delay… 2 full days now… sent ticket with game advisor attachments… NCSoft/ANet, please advise…

Same situation as this man as well.

Hello gents,

I live in SEA and after the “maintenance” mentioned on the GW2 Twitter account, I suddenly experienced horrid lag. Skills will take around 2-3 seconds to activate and enemies/players were teleporting everywhere. Prior to this, I have not experienced any lag at all and is able to play the game normally.

What was that maintenance for exactly and what was changed? Do I need to perform anything on my end to return previous network performance?

PS: I’ve performed troubleshooting steps like renewing my IP (my DSL is on dynamic IP), restarting my DSL modem, restarting my wireless router, restarting my computer – same results.

I am also getting this error a lot. This is in addition to an error I keep getting when trying to switch characters and keep getting disconnected.

A charr-iot.

Do you mean Kholer in AC perhaps?

If you find a way to get around his mobility and quick attacks, and then just make sure to dodge the pull-then-spin move, you should be fine.

Hello guys,

I’m leveling up a mesmer and was hoping you guys can provide tips and tricks for use.

Which build do you guys suggest to send me on my merry mesmer ways?

Thanks for the input!

^ The above answer is correct.

Just to add to the thread, the rewards are:
250 stuffing or glue (your choice)
100 cogs
1 toy plan (depends on the city)

So at the end of the 5 days, you will have enough mats for 2 toys.

I’m not sure if the rewards will persist after the 5 city visit.

All of the TP-bought town clothes are account bound. You can use them on any character.

The above answer is correct. The town clothes come in a consumable container and show up in your inventory upon use

I experience extremely high latency when doing this mission even though I’m not lagging in Lion’s Arch and other sections of the game.

Can this perhaps be a bug?

I suggest that you try exiting the game then logging back in. That usually solves the issue for me.

I experience this issue a lot of times as well, it may be something with your connection going out-of-sync or something (I don’t know the technical details).

I would like to suggest that they make it green. Looks better and is a positive indication instead of red.

(Green exclamation point) = Oh look! I sold something!

Thanks for the advice.

I use the precision to gain mostly a new stack of Bleed to sort of renew the timer. Is that correct?

I use Earth/Air sigils as they’re pretty cheap.

Is this trait build any better? http://www.gw2db.com/skills/calc/thief#3|3|3537|2786|134|3997|4485|25|1738|1704|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|15|1165|0|0|30|786|1166|2359|0|0|0|28033|28032|49988|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|0|

It’s situational. Personally I find the 5% one to be more okay for specialized use (dungeons, PvP, etc) since it’s more static – no need to find mobs to kill to build up power itself.

Also, once you go down, no more stacks. /sadpanda

1) Stand next to mob.
2) Spam 2
3) ????
4) Profit

This is what I do, up close and personal. Although it kinda defeats the meaning of the bow to be a ranged weapon. :P

Hello guys,

I recently leveled my thief alt to lvl80 and am having a lot of fun with it so far.

My idea for the thief is more on bleeds and the use of Death Blossom. As such, my weapons are both Rampager’s daggers with a Rampager’s short bow to compensate for any ranged fights (I don’t really dig pistols, they’re just not… fun)

My armor and accessories are all Power/Precision/Condition and my trait build is as follows:

What do you guys think?

PS: I prefer PvE over PvP, I just suck at killing other people.

Made me LOL

Stay in the labyrinth until you kill the champ corn elem and skeletons, then move to the instanced dungeon.

You have to time your jump as soon as you see the clock face and see the cracking occur.

When I did it, I failed on the clock face jump A LOT. I’m assuming latency plays some (?) factor to it. (don’t quote me on this)

It’s definitely a well made jump puzzle, but could use a couple of quality-of-life tweaks. (like the camera and stuff)

And finally, after 11 solid attempts to reach this kitten place.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

AND YET AGAIN. This is getting ridiculous.

Attempt 10 get that far and IT GREETS YOU WITH CRAP.

Yet another fail attempt. SAME $#*&$( PLACE.

I’ve been to multiple overflows already. I know it’s not a “L2P” issue because I proved that I can get to the top.

IT’S JUST THAT #$@#)($ CLOCKFACE.

Failed yet again

I’m not having fun with this anymore. /sigh

I’ve done it several times now, reaching the top can’t enter the tower. This crap sucks.

I tried restarting and it’s the same thing.

I’m doing this while clock is breaking, 2nd rotation I believe.

I keep hitting the clock and can’t get to the chest. What could I be doing wrong?

… makes me want to rampage out in the streets due to sheer frustration.

Touch = die

I use sword and board as the primary. The shield block is pretty useful in tight spots, and the DPS is actually not that bad. Given, it’ll take longer to kill stuff than with a greatsword, but there’s also more utility.

For ranged, I prefer the rifle for solo engagements and just switch it with the longbow if AoE is required.

I don’t really like the axe and mace skills.
