Guild Wars 2

Dara Potocska.8196:

Thank you for the reports and your continued passion for the guild halls and decoration systems. <3

I’ve submitted a new ingame bug report about the banners so that you have exact location information. Hopefully the report makes its way to you!

I can confirm the banner issue. The banners in question are in an area unlocked by the “Further Exploration” upgrade.

It would appear that these two banners do not have a texture assigned to them, and the game has fallen back to a generic “missing texture” asset.

I believe that I have previously submitted an ingame bug report about these banners.

I didn’t spend three years in a game that wasn’t WoW just to have it taken over by WoW players and turned into WoW. I’m supposed to give my opinion so it’s a strong no. Sorry if that upsets anyone, but it’s just my opinion so attack all you want.

I would NOT be happy to see this in any way shape or form…

All this will do is further the gap between average PvE’rs and elitest players will will willingly kick you from a party because your DPS was 0.002% less than Fred’s…

That is NOT a state I want this game to go towards and as such I do not want to see this API worked on, or released…

EVER!!!

Quoting so that you guys see this reply. Again, I think you’re misunderstanding what this chat API would enable. My post is above, TL;DR a Chat API would:

• make existing imperfect-but-legal personal DPS meters accurate, reliable, and convenient
• NOT reveal your DPS or chat/combat logs to any other players unless you chose to share, which you are under no obligation to do
• benefit many other people for multiple purposes, such as the RP community

Lending my support for this.

I think some people are misunderstanding what this would make possible in terms of DPS meters. Exposing the combat log for external programs to access (whether in realtime, or for later examination) would allow you to accurately monitor and analyze your own DPS, should you choose to do so. It will not allow you to see or monitor anyone else’s DPS. And you are certainly under no obligation to share any personal DPS data should you decide to obtain it.

Tools to calculate your personal DPS by viewing the combat log already exist (i.e. janxnx), but they work by imperfect methods (capturing screenshots of the combat log) that can be inaccurate, and have annoying prerequisites (combat log must be visible on screen at all times, interface size set to a specific size, etc). A chat API that exposed the combat log would simply make these existing tools reliable, accurate and more convenient to use.

Same here, with a launch pad found in Sparkfly Fen. I have trained as far as Lean Techniques, but have yet to train Stealth Gliding.

Are players with Ley Line Gliding unaffected by this? Perhaps the pads are accidentally set to require the entire mastery line instead of just the first mastery.
