Guild Wars 2

I agree with you. Seems like the biggest reveal of the story was ‘omg its Livia!’ But as a GW2 player I’ve never heard of Livia before. I do not really even understand why we agreed to join the shining blade, we are the commander! why should we willingly put ourselves under some death spell that wasn’t even truly explained and make ourselves beholden to these people.

Lazarus appearing (again but not again) was super confusing, yes we did some cool death leap stab to kill him but why does my character even want him dead!

I like story with some depth, but chopping and changing story with no real explanation is annoying (kill dragons, oh wait, don’t do that, kill lazarus, oh wait, don’t do that, kill balthazar, oh wait that’s too hard, kill lazarus again). I always read everything in the story and take my time, but this is the first time I have been totally lost and confused, not to mention totally disappointed in the end in which nothing even happened!!

Not even an update on aurene after all the baby dragon hype.

I was so disheartened that I asked support to check if the drop was bugged! They replied that it was not.

Today I finally got the drop (doing the adventures on a different character than the one I usually run them on). But it was about 6 days of running every adventure and 7 of them to gold.

Ulgoth’s drop I got on the first try. I must have been super lucky with that one.

Well if anyone is interested in the future, i got the palm-wood mallet from the chest at the end of the ley line jumping puzzle in AB.

Has anyone had any issues with getting the adventure item (Adventurous Melody) lately? I’ve done nearly every adventure to at least silver and no drop. am I just super unlucky? Also the Palm wood mallet (from random chests) isn’t dropping for me either after doing chest runs with multiple characters. If anyone else has done this collection, how long did it take to get the drops?

People on reddit say that it took them a whole day but I’ve already spent longer than that.

support are giving the item. wtf support. im linking your post to them if they refuse me again

Still no patch today to fix these two items. We just want to make our legendaries Only 3 new legendaries and 2 of them are STILL broken. I feel really sorry for the devs that designed these weapons but I think they should be making more noise over at ANET to get them fixed.

‘oh dont worry they will be fixed eventually’ some may say, and yes this is true but I worked my kitten off and payed a premium for items just so that I could make nevermore straight after it was released. By the time it is fixed there will be so many made that it wont even be special to be running around with the skin.

I know its pointless having a mini rant here and it wont make anything happen faster but I am so mad/upset that I have to do something.

Rebuying it actually is NOT a fix for this issue. The issue affecting these people isn’t a lost recipe or a wrong character recipe. The game does not recognize that the item needs to be replaced, and it is not available for repurchase from the karma vendor.

The only way I’ve seen this issue rectified, for any of the people I’ve talked to, is submission of a ticket and Anet directly replacing the item.

Hope this helps anyone.

You can easily rebuy as many as you wish. It doesn’t matter if you have unlocked them on another character or even the same character, once they are unlocked they are available for purchase.

Go to the lions arch crafting stations area.
Talk to Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbs.
Select option ‘show me your wares’.
The last four tabs are the reward items that you can repurchase.

The recipe for the Ravenswood Branch is the fourth tab from the bottom in the ‘Chest of Natural Protection’ (have to scroll right down to the bottom of the list)

Atleast if you guys cannot fix the two bugged items, let customer support give them to us!! we have put so much time and money into our legendary only to be thwarted by a bugged event. I really hope that the people making the other legendary journeys are taking notice of the issues and not including events in the process.

I dont usually complain about much in GuildWars but I was so hyped about the new legendary and its just been a big disappointment so far. (which is really a shame as they look awesome and I can see the work that has been put into the collection)

I didn’t get the item the first time I did the DS meta so I tried again. The second time I did get the drop. Im not sure if its just RNG or not but just incase its not, I did the north lane events without ever leaving the north lane. I also was in the boss killing team and made sure to attack all the pods (also we did not let any of the pods respawn, no idea if this helps the achievement at all)

As I wrote on the reddit thread:

Currently these steps are bugged for me in tier IV: – Combine Raven and Spirit (No option at hero point with vision crystal and primed raven)

Im pretty sure that this is the last step. Need to finish all the bugged stuff first :P

oh sorry, yeah i am really really tired and kittened off. thats a pretty embarrassing mistake though ha.

This collection requires you to complete the event ‘Defeat the Svanir Hunters before they kill all the owls’ (the tooltip is wrong and its swapped with the other friend of the owl)

The problem with this is that you need to fail TWO EVENTS to get this one event to start. This is a HIGH TRAFFIC area, lots of new people as its a low lvl zone, its also a heart area. It is VERY HARD to fail this event, and it involves a lot of asking people to stop attacking the mob that is very easy to kill.

This seems to go against everything that ANET stands for and really doesn’t feel very legendary to be telling new players to stop attacking a mob and let an event fail. Not only one event but TWO events in a row. Ofcourse the people in the map do not listen when asked to stop attacking, the mob dies and then there is another 15 min wait to repeat the cycle.

Ive been trying for hours to get this event and very very frustrating and not a pleasing experience at all. Something needs to be done to stop requiring events to fail.

hamster bryan.8469:

will there be separated ranks for inviting people and kicking people?
that would be awesome
because there are a lot of people i trust in inviting people . but don’t have the right judgement if something bad happens to kick someone . so please separate if possible

if not please tell us why!!

Well there is an easy work around for this. Make your lowest rank have the ‘new players here’ box checked and then the second lowest rank can be people that you wish to have the invite ability and so check the ‘admin lower ranks’ button. This allows them to invite people to the guild but they can only kick the people that are in that lowest rank. You can either keep new players there for an introductory period or move them to a different rank whenever you are online.

JDub.1530:

Some of you are saying it’s not a big deal. But, in fact, it is. Not everyone is connected online all the time. Some people won’t hear about this until they log on for missions. And less than a week is not much time to plan an alternate activity. And for some people, this may be the only activity they show up for, so an alternate activity may have no appeal to them.

Take this opportunity to have a break from the same boring old guild missions and run your own! Hide and Seek instead of bounty, Jumping puzzle race instead of guild puzzle. Prizes dont have to be extravagant for guildies to have fun! and you might even find that these are more team building than the actual guild events. Try to look on the bright side instead of only the negative side!

You can pm me in game if you have any questions about these alternative events, Ive run them for my old guilds plenty of times!

ahh. since i found out it was a bug not a feature i have closed everything on my computer (skype hates me) and finished the puzzle 3 times in a row with no wind issues! Being in australia.. i assume this is the problem. i really feel for you though squirrelbane! i was ready to jump on the ‘i hate anet’ train if this was how the puzzle was actually meant to work :P

biofrog.1568:

Erm.. there’s only a couple places where the wind even exists. Both are after the mid-way safe point… sooo not sure what you are looking at then.

Got dodge-roll bound to the wrong key, or double-tap to roll enabled?

no, its not dodge rolling, i know how to play the game. I am uploading a video to youtube but its going to take forever, ill update when its done. this wind is most definitely before AND after the midway safe point. Infact i have even had the wind blow me off the presents, off the ledge while running between boulders, everywhere.

ArthurDent.9538:

My sole problem is with the wind. There doesn’t seem to be any way to anticipate or avoid it so it is all luck on whether you make it. Does anyone have any solution for the wind or is it just RNG instant fail?

Dodge roll it. It only pops up in a few spots anyways.

how can you dodge roll it when you are on a tiny snowflake? and only a few spots? i get randomly blown off from any snowflake. maybe 1/20 times i can make it to the midway safe point without being randomly blown off a snowflake

edit: finally made it to safe platform, wind blew me off there while i was talking to the npc…

Why cant people just agree that it was hard, everything that made it harder was just part of it being hard.

It took me more time to find an open arena than it did to beat her. =/

did you try guesting to a quiet server? on anvil rock there are nearly always empty arenas (at least when i have gone to look)

lol wow.
‘liadri was so easy (even though it took me over 50 times to kill her, but i didn’t need to change my build or gear)’
‘liadri would be so easy if it wasn’t for (insert thing that makes her hard)’

Why cant people just agree that it was hard, everything that made it harder was just part of it being hard.

I loved this fight and gave up MANY times before i finally beat her. Im a mainly PvE player so i dont get the chance to test out my skills all that often. 1V1 Vs a boss in a controlled environment was awesome! And i still thought the same even when i thought i would never beat her.

Anyway, i know what you are saying OP and i agree totally! and congratz to you

(we need ’I beat liadri t-shirts!!)

‘because i want it now and for no effort’ is the main QQing that i read on these forums. I really do not understand why people do not want to play the game in order to get the content they desire.

The laurals for some ascended gear is a wonderful idea. New players that started 1 week before the patch and people that started in beta both have the same opportunities to get this content. If it was available for gold, then the rich people would have instantly purchased the gear and the poor people would have to continue as poor for months before being able to afford it. This would create the ‘classes’ problem that everyone seems to wish to avoid (devs and players alike) j

Oh, and another funny in this thread. The question was asked ‘what am i to do with all my random dungeon tokens lying around’ an answer was given that they could be turned into gold and then the person that gave that answer was told to stay on topic.

From this i can only assume that the topic of this thread is ‘lets QQ about currency’ and that any solution or positive comments are not welcome lol!

As to story mode dungeons, well thats well off topic for this thread but i agree that there should be SOME type of reward other than just the unlocking on explorable. It is very hard to get a group for story mode as anyone that has done it before does not want/need to do it again!

I have the same issue as you and i am using a normal simple microsoft mouse. (yes it sux for gaming)

A simple option turning off right click to select would solve this issue. I dont know why we need right click select when that is what left click does and i would say that most gamers use the right click button to move the camera ie: constantly pressing to move.

This issue is totally messing up my game, as a ranger i am obviously well back from the mobs and often straifing, with this issue i am quite often selecting mobs further away (or blank space then auto target something further away) and my pet will run off and agro everything on the way. Or i will target a party member/ npc and my attacks will miss the mob and go straight into the ground.

This has only been a problem for me since the patch on the 28th.
