And no! people are not happy with current TP…if we had a poll considering TP speculation i m quite sure of wich the result would be.
Now you’re just speculating.
500-700g into the Mystic Toilet. 0 precursors. 0 from game play. Not mentioning my hour count :P
I’m going to assume it’s artificial.
I do want to thank the person/persons putting in all the recent bids on stuff I’ve been hoarding though :P
400 scraps in your bank, and you’ve not traded them for a skin that sells for 60 gold? And this is because… why?
Skins you buy with fortune scraps are account bound. I have 1250 in my bank, along with a bunch of other back pieces/helms that are all account bound :p
I think you need to git gud
It never fails on the interweb, mention you dislike something and someone has to come in and say it’s the easiest thing in the world :P Or their favorite.
Oh god, the jotun trading game heart is horrible too, thanks for bringing it up >.>
That’s probably the worst heart in the game :P
Let’s see if this thread will get deleted or not. That’ll speak volumes.
They could delete it because it’s false information…. just saying.
It’s not false at all. Said by more than enough people before, will say it again, this is a legit datamine. Dulfy.net also confirmed it.
Not saying it wasn’t legitimately data-mined, I just meant that it might not be something that will be implemented.
With that being said, I <3 dulfy, but saying dulfy.net said something doesn’t make me think it’s law :p

Can anyone from anet please step up and give some explanations on this?
It’s been an hour since this thread was created, at the end of a work day. Step up? :P
But yeah, they need to nip it in the bud. I’d be gone if it was true, well probably… maybe not. I have a problem.

I want to make my like worth living.
Old thread but i’m only concerned now, i’m playing since early 2013, i got 5 characters lvl 80 and 2 are 40-60, i’ve just got 2 Experience Scroll for my two first birthdays and, really, i don’t know what to do with them.
No news from ANet about this ?
Those scrolls are just worthless and have been given to (most of) players way too late.
Delete them? :P
I buy new character slots from time to time and they’ll useful. I still need to do the personally story for Salads and Norns so I’ll be using a couple of my scrolls for that when I’m bored. If you ever decide to delete a character or get another slot it’s nice, even if you’re just parking them at a JP chest for Silver Doubloons.
What am I going to do with 9 Queen Jenna minis? It’s just something extra :p
Agreed, very overpriced like the toxic skins and grenth hood.
Overpriced, and a no-go for me. I’d disagree on the Grenth Hood though. I thought it was worth it, but sadly I never looked at the back of it in preview :P It pretty much gives you a hunch back, so I turned off head gear on my ranger right away. Still fine with my purchase though.
I <3 SaB, I just suck at jumping. W2 was really fun with rainbow clouds on :P Looking forward to W3.
Pretty sure it was a rhetorical question because the OP is still dissatisfied with the direction/decisions of the game :P
I’ll still answer. Population seems decent enough for me, of course that will be tested in the months to come.
There were complaints.
There are complaints about the SAB too, not relating to the groin-punching difficulty of World 2.
Well I’d expect complaints about everything in any MMO. Just meant from this mythical majority.
There will be plenty of people unhappy with whatever they release after Scarlet is gone.
With that being said, bring on the SAB. Nao.
Edit: Didn’t the “majority of people” enjoy Bazaar of the Four Winds? I didn’t see many complaints about it. It was one of my favorites :P

Sounds about right Kodama. I was dumb a bit back and spent like 300g on 50 keys. I had gotten a ticket and 10 normal scaps through just key farming so I thought I would be rolling in scraps. I think those 50 keys got me 5 or 6 scraps :P Of course I got a lot of other stuff I could use, a rename thing/trans crystals/blsks, but not enough to make up for my stupidity.
Never again.
There’s an ad in the gemstore that says “Exciting News From Black Lion Specialists!” and when you click on it, it takes you to the link from my first post.
Oh, lol. I see it now. There’s also a 44% off of a Black Lion introductory Package, and another dumb mask. What do Quaggan have to do with it, or am I missing something else? :P
Went to a WS and I’m not seeing anything new or any discounts :\
The in game link just takes me to a yahoo “Page not found” with 0 quaggan. Hopefully they’ll add something tomorrow. Now I want to shop at BLACKLION – Discount NC Furniture, though.

The first part isn’t working correctly now that it’s a link :P Really had/have no clue what this thread is about.
They’re too busy being cute. Luckily my company collects and stuffs them for fashionable backpacks.
I was just commenting on the fact that in the gem store in game it says Black Friday sale – at least it did yesterday, I haven’t been online yet today.
For a company that preaches about quality this is pretty goofy.
Mine said “New Year’s Weekend Sale” yesterday and today.
I’m out.
Sorry, I was busy playing CoH. I’m not going to play a game that I can obviously see I don’t like a combat system too.
You can like GW1 as much as you like, but I don’t have to play a game to tell I’m not interested in it :P
But you’re happy for them to go around banning people unjustly and promising content in their patch notes but not delivering.
Wouldn’t be much of a loss by the sounds.
This thread is about changing the combat system to be like GW1’s. From what I’ve seen, it looks horrible, and I would never use it.
Of course SWG had such great success.

So I heard it only lasts for 2 weeks is that true?
There’s a 2 week version, or was, that was like 200 gems (?). This one is permanent/account bound, but you have to move it around like the unlimited gathering tools if you want to use it on different characters. It’s 1000 gems atm, but will go up in a little over an hour. I’m guessing it’ll be 1500, but it might be 1250 or such, not sure yet :P
The forge is what does it for me, btw.
I rarely use the forge, but I don’t see people mentioning this in any of these threads :P I like having everything in a tiny box, plus I hate LA. It’s just a nice little convenience item that cost like 55g at the time I purchased it, that I use for a one stop shop.
I just hope it doesn’t get overcrowded since I like to play the market in peace.
With a good AI that has also enough randomizers in it’s core that is not true. Anyway, my comment was to Beldin.5498 who said he prefers grind rewards over difficulty rewards. He did not like hard content so even if it would be true what you say then he maybe means he does not even wants to master it once.
Meant in this game mainly :P Well in all the MMO’s I’ve played so far.
Also missed that part about grinding over difficult rewards. I’m all for difficult/rewarding (not loot) content. Of course brainless farming is sometimes soothing :P
Ok so it’s easier in this game. Thats true, the grind is pretty brainless. However you are now forced to do a brainless grind to get your items. Why would it be fine that a brainless grind rewards you but hard content should not reward. Have do disagree if anything then hard content should be rewarding but if there are multiple ways I would also not mind. Problem is that you are now forced to grind.
“Hard” content becomes a brainless grind once you master it. Nothing stays hard. You may just need to press a few extra buttons in the end.
If it was an unlimited item, I’d be fine with account bound.
Yes exactly, and that’s just fine, but it does not change the nature of the game’s monetization scheme. It is a “soft pw2” strategy. GW2 is not a “true” p2w game, but it allows players to skip months of grind with a swipe of their credit
card.
Ah true, but they’re paying for the game while I consider myself a freeloader :P As long as others are using their CC to keep the game running, I’m fine just spending more time.
Nope. It helps that I use gold for all my gem purchases, and if I ever want a key I just run a new character through their personal story. Play2Win.
which is at the cost of your time.
Yeah, and I spend that time enjoying myself :P

That picture could also be used for other game types. The left one is like a map of part of the early Resident Evil games and the right picture is pretty much exactly what Resident Evil 5 is (haven’t played 4 or 6).
RE4 was a lot of fun, you should play it. :P All I have to add to this conversation.
These kind of topics always bring out the bitter and angry ex-players hey.
That’s the majority of forum threads in the general section :P One reason b2p is semi annoying. Of course in subbed games, the general section is filled with bitter people still paying for a game they dislike.
I could see maybe a SB Guardian, and I know a lot of us have been waiting for MH pistols for Mesmers. Now a Hammer Ranger would be just funny.
No. I’d rather have a small gold sink than a large time sink. You already have to hoof it once to uncover the map. Also it would be horrible if someone asked for help, and you had to tell them you’re 5 minutes+ away from them.
Another cringe worthy use of the term “immersion”.

Doubt Anet is feeling the loss of your gold :P
WvW and guesting have put any server mergers off for a bit. I really don’t see a reason for them at this point in time. Maybe they should make transferring off of BG more enticing :P
Maybe its a good idea that Anet makes the black lions chest salvageble.
So if you salvage it you get 3 mithril or so.
After they delete like 50 million of them on the tp, sure.
I think I’ve gotten 5-6 keys from actual kill/drops since headstart. I’ve probably only gotten 7-8 actual Exotic drops in the same time frame though :P
Now map completion is completely different, gotten plenty of keys from that.
People born in November have the lowest chance of getting good drops, regardless if they buy gems or not. This isn’t even just a theory, it’s a proven fact.
-/10. No opinion. Not a fractal fan, so I’m just pretending there’s just a longer lapse between updates.
I figured they were gone already. All of them are too expensive as is. I guess F&F dyes were the first and last of my dye speculations :P
I believe for the last two there was a 5 day warning, so I’d expect the 29th to be the last day for them.
Well, you buy them with gems and they enhance your gathering abilities. If that’s not P2W, I dunno what is. :P
Lots of things, don’t think you can win at gathering though. Unless gathering more mats made you stronger in spvp.
These boosters are pretty useless regardless if you buy them with gold or cash, mainly because of the cost.

I’m pretty sure I’m trying to beat a market bot at placing buy orders. Every time I put a higher buy order (on a certain range of items), it gets beaten by a buy order of 20. I try at different times of the day and it gets beaten within a couple of minutes.
Considering I refresh about ~70 buy orders across a range of levels (same item type) at a time and they all get beaten within minutes.. seems very likely to be a bot running these buy orders.
I’ve reported this through the bug report function.. (since I’ve no idea who it is)..
Anyone else seen this going on? Any other ways I could resolve it?
I have a funny imagine in my head of a guy on the other end thinking to himself “Omg, this has to be a bot, he keeps outbidding me minutes after I refresh my bids! I’m going to watch these like a hawk now.”.
Kidding of course :P Aside from the apps that alert you, I do have a feeling there are tp bots, but it could just be someone more anal than you.
Some of the Ascended weapons with useless stats have some really beautiful skins. The ones with the +Heal is celestial white with gold trimmings and looks absolutely gorgeous. I would just craft Zojja’s and then transmute the prettier skins over it.
Pretty much this. I got an Ascended weapon thing to drop last week and it was Celestial also. I have no use for the stats, but the skins are nice. My only crafted ascended weapon to date is a Cleric staff (Theodosus) because the gold/white matches my main’s armor :P He has 0 healing power in his other armor/trinkets/weapons lol.
So basically, you are saying how satisfied you are with having a steady supply of gold for almost no effort.
I put “effort” and risk in. Sorry that champ farming is so hard for you. Nothing in this game requires real “effort”.
I play all aspects of this game, sans spvp, and I’m sorry to tell you but the market is part of this game.

It’s debatable the real impact this could have on the economy, but why change something thats not broken? It would stop TP flipping that’s true, but that’s also a part of the game that many people find enjoyable.
I would have quit long ago if there wasn’t a TP.
I think people have a problem distinguishing Flippers/Market manipulators/Power traders from one another. They’re not the same things.
I casually flip exotics for a small profit, just making my gem store and small purchases possible. I’m not swimming in gold, and could probably make more doing other things, but I find it fun and it allows me to casually play alts, or WvW while I turn out a bit of gold on the tp.
Most of my gold comes from speculation, and I don’t consider that even flipping. Just long term investments.
At this point, I’d rather just buy another game instead of buying an expansion. Of course I’ve always been at that point, and it has nothing to do with GW2.
Once a year expansions still blow my mind, but I’ve been told that’s the norm.
hope it will not going to be Christmas infinite axe :/
If it summons Quaggans with santa hats on, cutting the tree down for you, I’d be in.
I was going to say that people ran out of their supply, and we’re running on home instance fumes at first. I just noticed that a large amount were bought up recently though :P
I’ve just been turning mine into the charged ones randomly for no good reason, bah.
Possibly due to speculation that Ascended armor will be in next month’s update?
Hmm, the thought never crossed my mind. Do you think they’ll be needed for Ascended armor? I haven’t paid much attention to what will be required.
