Guild Wars 2

So, I had completed Brisban Wildlands (I think) in the past but noticed I was missing 1 POI and 1 waypoint. I just went to get them and it said I completed the map but I didn’t get any new charge (or that unidentified dye).

Is that because I had previously completed it? (I’m assuming those were added after I had completed it because those were the only ones missing).

Healix.5819:

Once a skin is unlocked, it is permanently located in the wardrobe. Using the wardrobe, you can apply unlocked skins to a worn piece of equipment at the cost of 1 transmutation charge. Skins, as an item type, also still exist, which can be applied directly and at no cost. The horns were originally a skin, which you may have used, otherwise you must have either used the wardrobe or maybe equipped a different item. Assuming you changed the skin, you’re going to have to use the wardrobe to apply the skin you want. Transmutation charges can be obtained through map completion, by doing any of the cities.

If you have older transmutation charges stashed away, back when they were items, you can also use them to convert them to the newer transmutation charges.

I think I love you…

I hadn’t looked in the wardrobe to see if that hood was there. I had no idea. It’s in there though!

I also didn’t think to look to see if I had any of the older ones stashed away. I had 30!!!

Have a great day. <3 Thank you so much.

I’m going to try to make sense but honestly, I’m kind of confused.

Before the update that led to the wardrobe in April 2014 I had taken a couple month break from GW2. When the update came I decided (like I do every few months) to come check out what had been added on my thief.

Now, I don’t know if anyone remembers when the wardrobe was first added…but I think that everyone was given like 1 free transmutation charge? As I was looking around at everything (which seems very overwhelming even now when I log in because nothing looks at all like it used to), I accidentally clicked something and my hood…disappeared.

What I was left with, was the devil horns that were in my inventory at that moment. I worked kitten hard on that character to get her the way I had wanted her to look. Like, really hard. She was my solo character and I had put way more effort into that character than I had any character in any game before (or even after to be honest).

I was so floored that I had done something I didn’t even understand in the blink of an eye and literally see no way out of…that I haven’t given GW2 any playtime (even though I would like to start playing again). So now what do I do? How do I get her hood back?

If anyone has read through this, thank you. If you have any solutions, I would love to hear them. Thank you for your time.

First image is how she should look…second is now how she currently looks.

It’s funny to me when someone says “..no offense..” and then becomes offensive. For the record here, I said she was a “crappy” mom not a “terrible” one. Obviously there might be a legitimate reason for her departure that we haven’t been given the story on. I believe I followed up my post with a reply that said something along the lines of hopefully seeing some retribution on Eir’s side.

I forgot how unfriendly this place was. I’ll stop posting now, thanks for reminding me guys.

Siphaed.9235:

Oh geesh, here we go again. This is just as bad as the thread that flipped out….

Please, take no offense to my post, but your post shows a stretch of the imagination in linking the unlinkable…..

First off….I’m not “flipping out”…so calm yourself down a bit.

Secondly…how is a mother abandoning her son to pursue her own agenda NOT linkable to a day that moms are usually celebrated on?

I realize that this story line has been building ever since Brahm was first introduced but I’m sure that they knew this installment was going to be released at the beginning of May.

I’m hoping that there will be some sappy reunite and Eir honestly tries to make amends with her son. She did miss out on his entire upbringing (though, he does have a great heart for a kid that lost both of his parents at such a young age).

Okay, that made me laugh! Seriously though, Norn women are blessed with lots of….baby food. Unless they’re born and given ale and meat right out of the gate….I suppose that wouldn’t surprise me.

the moidart.3612:

Other then the utterly horrid decision to make Rox’ eyes gigantic, I vastly preferred Rox to Braham. She’s confident, stays on task, and doesn’t give away all her life’s story, unlike Braham. Sure, she’s standard, but she’s a fun standard.

Meanwhile, Braham’s a cliche – by the time we’ve finished his instance, we know where he’s from, who he’s in love with, and what his ambitions are. And he keeps breaking up clustered enemies with his dang shield skill. And his hair piece is like a topee. And WHY is his concept art the wrong ethnicity, incidentally?

At the bottom of it all, the most important issue is the combat dynamics. Rox stays out of the way and helps. Braham breaks up aoe, and has no noticeable DPM. The instances they are in further heighten this problem – in Rox’, they come in in groups of 3, close together and you can wiped them out as they come. In Braham’s, enemies dribble in from far apart spawn points which allow them to disperse in addition to Brahams help in that regard.

TLDR: Rox stays professional and is helpful, Braham whines and is actively a hindrance.

Brahm revived me several times. He was pretty helpful in our instance.

As a mom (and I’m guessing I’m probably in the minority here), just wanted to say that I’m a little bummed you guys would roll out a story line about Eir being a crappy mom just a couple of weeks before Mother’s day. Yes, I realize that Mother’s day isn’t a holiday in Tyria….but if it was…I would give Brahm a freaking hug.

….I don’t think it is ok to release an unfinished game.

I haven’t logged in for a LONG time..but I just had to ask…this game is technically “unfinished” is it not? They’re constantly evolving the game…I thought that was the entire point.

My boyfriend and I typically play both the same profession and race together.

I like to link unique (to me anyway) looking rares and exotics because of the randomness and the fact that the TP is still not preview-able. Never know when someone links something that they’ve never seen before but might like for themselves and it was linked by someone getting it randomly.

I found a rare staff the other night that had two floating feathers at the top. Never saw that before so I linked it. I ended up salvaging it, but it still looked cool.

I guess part of me would feel badly if I didn’t at least share the look of the item at least with someone before I deleted it from existence.

In front of the bank in LA. Devona’s Rest. Are they popped up for a reason or is it someone called them to that spot for giggles? Looks cool though. Like they were fleeing their homes and chose that spot to congregate.

This whole thread ticks me off. I’m learning how the mechanics of WvWvW works. As are, I’m sure, quite a lot of other people. If your first instinct is to insult and condemn people for doing something like this (possibly the people the op was referring to actually knew what it was they were doing) well, let’s just say no one better call ME any names in game for making a mistake or two.

You guys really need to lighten the heck up. If you want your server to work together to accomplish more, then be prepared to explain how things work to the new people. Otherwise, you’ll just drive them away and defeat yourself.

I’m fairly new to pvp (haven’t really liked it in the past) but this WvWvW is surprisingly the most fun I’ve ever had. I play a level 80 thief in DR and I tend to either spy, stalk, or run like a nutcase straight into the fray to cause havoc and distraction.

The only thing I wish is that people didn’t take this so seriously and just had fun while working together. Anyway, that’s the times when I have the most fun.

So I take it from the lack of responses telling me I don’t want to miss “insert something amazing” then there isn’t anything that I’ll be crushed to miss out on. lol Good to know, thank you.

I thought the fractal dungeon was going to stay after the event?

I didn’t use rare weapons. I used 3 green level 70 weapons + the donation packaging. I got 12 commendations.

I really only did it for the harvesting tools though. Doing the math, it wasn’t really worth it in the long run for me buying the weapons off the TP.

Several points I’d like to make regarding my opinion on this. For one, I think this came entirely to close to the the end of the Halloween event. I spent a lot of time playing the heck out of the Halloween event and I loved it. Granted, I got lots of loot (no exotics), a cool back piece, and didn’t spend a dime (I would have if I had the money though).

This current event though seems convoluted and I’ve been reading how the NPC’s are all buggy. I also don’t really know what rewards are available at the end of it all (so maybe it IS worth it, but idk).

The only thing that seems most interesting is this new dungeon. I’ll admit, I don’t really do dungeons (I’m not the best player honestly, I still use my keyboard + my mouse to click skills) so they are usually to difficult for me.

Is there anyone else that isn’t really doing anything with this event? Also, is there anything in particular that you can advise me that I should NOT miss out on before it’s all gone? Thanks.

Warkupo.1025:

Thought about switching to warrior, but it just doesn’t feel right thematically. Really, I wanted to be a dual sword wielding evasion based ninja-thing, but settled on offhanding a dagger since thief can’t dual-weild swords for some inexplicable reason.

I might go try mesmer if I can get over all the… butterflies. I’ll probably just quit playing though, and maybe poke my head in again next patch to see if things sound better or not. I know that sounds terribly QQ, but thief was my main character, I’m finding him boring to play, and I’m not that terribly invested in this game to begin with.

I roll a bunch of different professions with my bf, but my main solo (level 80) character is a thief. I only pve with it and I’ve never been in a dungeon (yet). I know I’m not a “normal” player, but I agree with you. All the nerfing prior to this never really bothered me…but now…it’s a kitten taking aggro when you’re solo and running for your life and need to throw out a couple daggers to slow down + do decent damage for survivability.

I did just get S3 Seasons though….

Unreal! Freaking half! O.O

I don’t particularly care for the drunk Norn female by the trading post in Hoelbrak.

Gilosean.3805:

I like a lot about the game, but ANet definitely needs to do better by their female characters with more varied clothing options, including options to not look like a stripper.

I just can’t get over that you think skirt = stripper. Most of the skirts (after the starter set) are longer and/or have tights/leggings that go along with them. You seem pretty uptight…it’s not real…so just stop tilting the camera up the skirt to actually “see” what’s up there?

Oh man these had me busting out laughing! Very clever Hyena!

Why were Kooraloo and Meelamoop evicted from the Lion’s Arch sewers?
They were quaggan up the pipes. <— LOL!

Guess I’m totally in the minority here, because I think the prices for waypoints @ level 80 are fine. When I sell a -20 drop and get 20c for it, then yes, waypoints should cost less than 20c.

When I sell a level 70+ drop and gain 2+s for it, then the waypoint should reflect that increase.

Anyone stating otherwise is trying to “game” the system.

It makes my female characters freaking bald. The hat is detailed beautifully, but with a bald head it’s ugly as sin. Sadly. Looks like I’ll be ditching it on the majority of my characters and using the horns instead.

Idk, I’m kinda torn. I like some of the pieces, but I wish some of them were more…feminine. I wish some of them were not as similar to other pieces too. It’s frustrating to see pieces @ level 80 that have the exact same look as pieces I had 30 or 40 levels ago. Anyway, here is my Sylvari thief armor atm. I thought they all looked good (and still do). The second image is my current look.

“People don’t actually eat candy corn. It just gets passed down from generation to generation.”

That’s a really stupid thing to say. We eat candy corn in my house here every year. You should try the flavored candy corn. There’s caramel apple, caramel, and raspberry to name a few. It isn’t all orange, yellow, and white you know.

I read through most of these posts…I never played GW1 but I found someone’s youtube videos that talks about the lore. Is this incorrect information? http://youtu.be/ARZWX51hYYk

The wiki says that the server world names are locations in Tyria (except 3), but I’m from Devona’s Rest and I can’t find a wiki location with that name.

So, what’s the story? Where is it in Tyria and are there other world server name locations that have lore meaning behind them but it isn’t listed in the wiki?

My boyfriend and I have made a 2 person guild (for the time being) and I was wondering this too.

Also, can we research things multiple times and have the consumable (guild stash for example) stack? That way we can build up our guild abilities before we move forward.

There are now about a dozen of them in the Human starting area in the orchard. I can’t kill even 1 spider without the herd of them ripping it apart. This makes the game unplayable and seriously not enjoyable.

Here I was hoping to come to the forum to see if anything is being done…and I see from 6 pages that no, not enough is being done. That’s why it’s a problem everywhere in the game now.

So, the reply I got back was “..head to the forums.” Apparently, the more people that view, comment, and most likely complain about the gems not showing up the higher up on the priority list it goes.

If they sent me the dye pack I paid cash for back, I’d just reroll and keep the gem at level 1 for now. As it stands now though, the gem is ruined (not showing up at all) and I’m stuck with a character I put cash into. I’m stupid, I know. sigh

This is the response I was given when I reported it on the 23rd.

Hello,

Thanks for contacting the Guild Wars Support Team.

While I would like to replace your items, the Guild Wars Support Team is unable to replace individual items in the manner that you are describing. We simply do not have the tools to provide this service at this time.

Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

I DIDN’T DO IT WRONG! >.< I have the gem and I have my hood done in the same manner on my thief, so I KNOW I did it correctly!

Looks like they’re going to leave us out to dry on this bug. >><

Okay, these are all good points, but in my example I’m really referring to random people that are just running around the map doing events and whatnot. We’re not in the same guild. We haven’t spoken to each other at all (random strangers).

In another game I played, the quest would be “go kill x amount of this mob” and when we got to the spot of those mobs it would make sense to group up (or be killstealed or loot looted). Plus, like you said Edge, as a healer I would want to see health and status, but in GW2…I’m not a healer. My skills affect everyone within my range. I specifically cast those spells while in the middle of as many ppl as possible to maximize effect.

So…I guess I still don’t see a good reason to just randomly pick up strangers in our duo party. It seems it would be a hindrance. Which bothers me a little, but not 100%, because I meet more people when I solo, but I don’t necessarily need to meet people when I’m duo with my bf.

Guess that’s a drawback to removing the “trinity” system. Not enough party incentive it seems.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/elementalist/Flame-Eye-of-Life-gem-transmuted-and-gone/first#post237543

Me too. I sent in a report ticket and haven’t heard anything back yet. If it isn’t fixed, then I’ve lost 200 gems I spent on a dye pack, and 2 transmutation stones (I thought I should try it again for experimental purposes, it failed). I might reroll..idk yet (if it isn’t fixed I mean).

I stopped to answer someone’s question in map chat yesterday and while I wasn’t paying attention a little NPC Asura carrying a box of stuff (not in a city) humming down the road ran straight to me with a mob on him, dodged (I’m totally not kidding) the attack on the mob, and proceeded to high tail it away. Leaving me in the middle of a sentence and needing to stop typing to kill it off of me. Meanwhile, Asura keeps walking down the road humming the whole time. What a fella’.

Other than things like dungeons of course. My bf and I duo and someone kept asking to join our party (actually, spamming the invite). I let the person in..but I didn’t see the point because we tend to jump around the map a lot. We sit in the same room on separate computers so…communicating in-game while pve and story mode just slows us way down. lol

I’m just wondering, is there an added benefit to actually picking up another random person to our “group”? With the trinity not needed anymore…we don’t need a tank or a healer, so what’s the point?

I would like to see this. It would be nice to get to know some more about the people that are on particular servers. It could help people to settle into specific servers too.

The weekend on Devona was packed. Idk what it was like in WvW though, since I haven’t played there yet (learning all the professions skills first).

I will say though, that I find the week days pretty quiet, and I like it. Throughout the week I don’t really get thrown to overflow, but over the weekend I noticed it happening a lot. I think it’s great actually.

They can’t restore it at all? I’m still waiting on my support ticket response, but if that’s the case I’m going to be reallykitten off. I bought a dye pack and other dyes off of the TP for her already.

I’m wondering why on characters I’m getting a “new” storyline when I choose different beginning options with my characters. Like, with my first human characters, we had the corrupt Mayor we had to go hunt down. The second time we ran through with our humans we got the girl and her dad in the bar fight. My Sylvari had two different stories too.

Are they the same just rearranged or something?

On topic, I agree that the guardian was really fun to solo with too.

Oh wow, I totally thought this problem was just mine! I haven’t leveled my Asura past like level 5 or something, but I went through the Asura area on my level 20 thief and I hit the mud so hard I broke a branch off my head!

I thought I was just freakin’ super squishy! lol

I went back into game to screenshot it for my ticket. I was also hoping relogging completely out and then back in would fix it. It obv didn’t though.

I know I did this right, because I did the same thing with my thief hood. I took the level 10 head piece and transmuted the stats and rune of life onto the gem. It looks how it’s supposed to look…but when I put it on it isn’t showing up on her forehead. I have it ticked to show up and I relogged..nothing. Did I break it? Is it a known issue? So bummed about it tbh.

So very sorry, the Code of Conduct is so very different, I hadn’t realized…

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/legal/guild-wars-2-rules-of-conduct/ <— #1 and #3 still apply.

(That’ll teach me to use internet search and click on the first one that pops up)

Just to spell it out all nice and clear for the ones here that are telling me to “get over it”. I’m talking about racist remarks, references to genitalia….profanity does NOT offend me. Those other “topics” however, DO. They are not appropriate for a game’s public chat.

In my opinion, the only reason anyone would say those types of things in a public chat is for attention, and to start these kinds of arguments. It’s common sense that there will be people that do not appreciate reading those things.

To reiterate again, we all agreed to #1, #3, #4 http://www.guildwars.com/support/legal/rulesofconduct.php when we purchased and logged into this. So for however much you tell me to use the chat filter, it still is reportable and punishable.

I don’t want anyone to get banned. I just want everyone to play respectfully. Is that really so hard to do anymore?

There are things that people can say, that the chat filter won’t pick up on, and they are still not appropriate for public chat. That’s all I have to say to you, about that.

Criticized, indeed.

It’s usually pretty friendly. It seems though, every early morning, there are a few people that get into chat and start being extremely vulgar, rude, and explicit.

Before anyone says the usual “grow up”, “block them”, etc. I’d like to just point out that everyone agreed they wouldn’t use that language when the signed up for this game. So c’mon, please be respectful already, you’re ruinin’ the atmosphere!

Is it such a bad thing to want to level each of my crafts? I harvest everything, I don’t farm anything particularly, I just pick up my drops as I explore the world. I have the mats stored. So what’s the big deal?

When I realized I was salvaging to much I began checking TP and vendors and now I salvage/npc about 50/50. My highest level character is like 32 and I have a little over 1g.

What do you think? Is it “noob” or stupid to work every craft?
