Guild Wars 2

I tired to search the forums for this topic but their search seems to be broken or something, so sorry if it already exists.

Anyway, does anyone know if Anet has ever said whether they would bring back old gem store items? Unfortunately I wasn’t able to play for chunks at a time because of school/work and what not and would come back to realize that I sometimes missed out on some awesome store items. I’m sure Anet would make bunch of money, especially with new people coming in because of HOT. I really want the wizard hat, and even though it was free at the time I would totally spend gems to get it now, among some other things.

Well I don’t expect to have my legendary really soon or anything, I just want to start down that path. I am not that big on crafting though so I would rather just work on the one I need to. So I’m just trying to figure out which one is required so I can begin leveling it since I have gathered a good amount of resources now.

After looking through Miyani’s inventory I noticed that a few of the Gifts list two crafting professions in the description. Specifically I will eventually need to craft a Gift of Entertainment, and in the description it states tailoring(400) but below that it also states Armorsmithing(400). I am just trying to figure out if I really need to max both professions or if I really only need to know one of them and maybe the description is messed up somehow.

I am an engineer and so I wear medium armor, I would really like to figure this out before I start leveling two crafting professions I can’t even use. thanks.

Haha, ok so super specific build in order to be viable. Gotcha.

Right now the pistol is a confused weapon. It is trying to do conditions and DD at the same time but sucking at both. Considering we have a DD weapon with the rifle I would like to see them bump the explosive shot bleed up a bit to make it more viable.

Yes P/P is a pretty strong condition setup but a majority of the condition damage is coming from blowtorch, and its a little annoying if we have to rely on a single ability put out decent condition damage. I would rather not have to be pigeon holed into a burn build if I want to use conditions on my engy.

Plus the rifle easily out damages the pistol right now. And correct me if I am wrong but aren’t dots supposed to do more overall damage than DD since it takes time to output that damage. Also the rifle comes with piercing shots…. you don’t have to trait it.

Just wanted to add my voice on the subject. I don’t know why they made it a 2 second bleed either. As some others have said the only possible thing i could think of is because of the aoe damage, it’s so pitiful though it might as well not be there. I would trade the aoe damage for even a 3 second bleed, honestly I would. I am currently rolling a support build because I don’t really want to use the rifle and our condition damage on the pistol is just lacking too much.

I didn’t want to start a new thread so I thought I would ask this here. I’ve noticed when looking at Gift recipes from Miyani some of them list two crafting professions in the description. For example, I need the Gift of Entertainment and in the description it lists Tailoring (400) but below that is says Armorsmithing (400). I’m just wondering if anyone knows what is going on with this, if i really have to learn both or if the descriptions are just messed up. I would really like to figure this out before I start investing a bunch of time and resources into a crafting profession I don’t need.
