You can forge Scarletts Kiss and Rainbow. I get Scarletts kiss at least once a week. Rainbow not as much.

You get an item worth 370-800 gold from the forge at least once a week?

It’s a little frustrating that it matters how you enter Rata Novus, but as you say there is a green star telling me exactly where to go. That did it. Thanks.

Can't progress in Flashpoint

TheLordQ.1857

I cannot get past ‘Enter Rata Novus’ to start the chapter.

On characters that both have and have not finished chapter 4:

1) Start chapter 5.
2) Listen to Taimi’s speech about her dragon killing machine, which ends in the word flabbergasted.
3) Portal Scroll to Ember Bay.
4) Enter Portal to Rata Novus

Result: Now standing in Rata Novus on top of a green star.
Unable to interact with green star.
Unable to interact with Portal Tuner.
Unable to interact with any NPCs.
Going near the portal/green star brings up ‘Exit to Ember Bay’ dialogue.

Relogging does not help.
Restarting the mission does not help.

Still amazed at the way BL items are sold.

Thought of a fun cosplay idea needing Belinda’s Sword while at work today.
Came home and prepared to buy gems for a character slot and the sword.
Sword is no longer available for sale.
Logged out of game.
Spent $0.

By the time the sword comes back around, will have lost interest in the cosplay idea.

Everyone loses.

“Here’s a GORGEOUS suit of armor carved entirely out of ice, except for the buttcape we know you can’t live without!”

Why couldn’t it be a suit of ice armor? Why can’t we get past the same buttcapes over and over?

This is the first pretty thing in the store, and the first time I’ve prepped to buy something, in a long time in my opinion. The buttcape is an eyesore that looks crammed into it. Very disappointed, and sadly for both me and ANet, no sale.

Assuming “I did upgrade them” means that you put a new upgrade component in them, then when you upgraded them, a box popped up that said

Upgrading the item will make it Soulbound to you.

So…. you soulbound it when you upgraded it.

New BL Chest loot tables worth it?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

Based on the notes there should be 4 drops. 1 seasonal, 1 guaranteed uncommon or higher, 1 convenience item, 1 progression item. However, it seems to be bugged at 3 items.

You have misread.

Every chest contains a guaranteed seasonal item that will change regularly.
Every chest contains a convenience item.
Every chest contains an item that will progress your account in some way.
There is now a consistent chance at a fourth drop that is uncommon or rare.

3 slots (Bag, convenience, progression) always, and maybe a fourth slot that drops an uncommon or rare item. If you get the uncommon+ drop, the fourth slot appears. I have seen this.

To answer the op: This system feels worse than the previous one. It may be better… I haven’t done maths. But it feels worse, and so I lost interest in finding out if it was better.

Bloodstone Crazed Creatures Event

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

  • Current Events: Levvi’s Device has been updated to indicate when a legendary bloodstone-crazed creature has recently been killed in the map.

I see no difference in the device.

I killed the BC-Arc and then used the device. The shark and bear appear exactly the same as they did before. They look the same as my wife’s device, and she hasn’t left TD since she logged in.

So points for trying to fix the problem, but no actual fix.

Erroneously Depleted Ancient Sapling node

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

The only time I have seen anything like that is
1) Go to frostgorge, where there are 2 ancient trees.
2) Chop down one tree
3) Get onto a new map.
4) Both trees are real and choppable, BUT as soon as you cut one down, the other one gets depleted as well.

You can see this happen today if you mine 30 bloodstone nodes in the new zone; the rest of the nodes deplete.

I have no idea if this was helpful :P

Feedback Thread: Summer Update (26 July 2016)

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

1) As a thief main, it’s a kitten to get into a raid group. So, a class that is not really wanted in raids getting nerfed (staff damage), and nerfed (no more might on venomshare) is not very appreciated.

Seriously. Waiting three months for a balance patch, excited to see what changes were made, and it was all nerfs. To a class that no one wants in a raid.

I guess I have to hope that elementalists were punched hard enough in the face that thief DPS is high enough to allow me to be attractive in a raid. Poor guys got wrecked harder than I did.

2) New map is great. Flying skills are awesome. Gathering blood rubies and magic is going well.

3) Enjoyed the story a lot, except for the first step which is flat out boring. Much like we asked for skippable cutscenes, I hope we can do something about standing around talking scenes, especially on subsequent characters.

4) The way Taimi said that last phrase at the end, and everything falls quiet actually got an emotional response from me (terror, to be clear).

[Suggestion] Guild Renown Heart Boost

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

MOST hearts are fine. There are a few that are EXTREMELY tedious. Ash legion camp where you have to stealth is the WORST! I’d kill to be able to spend Proofs of heroics to skip a given heart even if it meant going to the heart vendor.

I will share with you the secret outside the box way to do that Ash heart.

Get stealthed. Turn away from the camp. Put the camp wall on your right. Walk along outside the wall to the first opening into the camp. Step in. Bam, you just did about 1/3 the heart. Repeat 2-3 more times and done. A little tedious but not at all stressful and tons faster than a number of other hearts (hello, gathering scrap metal east of Ebonhawke when there’s no ogre attack happening).

I didn’t come up with this trick but I’ve used it with much relief ever since I first read it.

As to this thread, I think that would be a fine guild tavern benefit, entirely in line with things like xp boosts and map bonus boosts.

<3 <3 <3 THANK YOU.

ascended aqua breather

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheLordQ.1857

TheLordQ.1857

Is it not possible to change ascended breathers to hot stats through the mystic forge?

If it is, I’m sure Customer Service would consider replacing it, in exchange for (the requester) removing the relevant materials from inventory.

I’m not inclined to make Ascended Breathers — they are a huge expense for a niche-use item:

  • You can do T4 aquatic fractal using Exotic (or even masterwork) breathers.
  • There’s precious little underwater combat in WvW, for which the extra stats might be useful.
  • There’s no PvE situation that calls for Ascended Breathers.
  • PvP will never have underwater combat and ANet has stopped including underwater areas in new zones.

1) No you can’t put them in the forge.
2) HoT has underwater areas, so while they aren’t exactly promoting underwater combat, it’s not not being included.
3) It’s certainly true that they don’t matter much.

To the OP:
HoT recipies like this are available according to the wiki https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Yassith's_Cloth_Breather but I am not sure I see how to get them. I expected fractal encryptions, but I’m not sure. Maybe you can find it? Maybe an armor book?

How can you possibly get all 16 orange weapons?

You get 1 for doing the daily 8 times, and it repeats. That’s 2 at most (19 days)
You get 1 for King Toad weapons.
You get 1 for Storm Wizard weapons.

How are you going to get the other weapons for the achievement?

Our guild completed the mission (and got 15/15 successes).
We got the ‘Event complete’ popup which awarded an ancient bone.
We got the ‘Accept credit’ popup.
However, no one got personal credit. The guild did not get credit.
The other guilds running it at the same time got no credit.

Guild missions seem very buggy in general.
