Suggestion for excess Airship oil

We could have a greased skritt competition. Think those rats are slippery now? Oh ho ho…just wait till they’ve been rolled around in some airship oil.

I’m sure a few of them will stand around babbling about how shiny they are so those will be a free point for some people.

I would really like to be able to move squad/party health bars to mid screen near the ability bar to know when to heal my comrades and still be able to see the fight.

Currently looks like: ^_@

This was indeed the issue. It also makes as much sense as a printer attached to a coffee pot.

Not gaining any exp or reward chest for doing adventures. It almost appears as if my daily limit isn’t being reset or something along those lines. It just does a noise at the end and brings up the reset screen.

It’ll probably somehow increase or decrease pvp ranks for league if they make it group again. Would be nice if it was groupable again though. I skipped it last time around cause who wants to run stuff with random people; Guild Wars or Pug Wars?

Half the guild got rewards from puzzle (both difficulties), half got rewards from race (same issue as last week with people having to go back and forth over the finish line for credit), everyone got credit for bounty.

We did obtain all of our guild favor though so there is that.

Vengeful Hammers turning itself off?

It could have hit a wall or rock. It hates walls and will turn off if hitting them. Some large rocks do this as well.

Shield 4 (Envoy of Exuberance) disappears if it hits a solid wall (not rocks/trees/etc.) and does not return to the player so you do not receive your protection. This also occurs when you use it too close to yourself.

This is one of many events that I have on my 3 year and counting now “bugged since launch” It bugs out so often I ignore it now and never bother to participate in it. It is really too bad that Anet does not care about any of these bugged events that have been bugged for years now.

Actually last update the dev that was working on it actually did 5 full runs with us to make sure it was in working order. It’s been working well since then till today (far as I know). With the amount of variables in this event chain I’m sure it’s a giant pain in the kitten to get them all lined up so they don’t break.

So going around saying they don’t care to fix things doesn’t help get them fixed. Report things that are broken in game at the least and on here if you care to. If you don’t report broken things they may not even know about them.

After running around, it looks like Finley and the other human generic soldiers didn’t reset. The two char engineers are standing about as well. The other char (maybri and company) are fine it looks like.

Captain Gregory is further south and calling out orders but no one else present since they’re further north so it probably bugged there.

Wasn’t there at .135 but a guild mate was and said someone started human side (humans messing stuff up go figure) while char defense was going. Maybri got stuck at the trees waiting on the house step while Gregory was running amok still yelling things.

Was out there around 3pm pst. and it is still exactly like Mikah posted above; with Slashclaw not dying and Finley standing about with some generic soldiers. Did not see Gregory around though.

The drop rate on skins in there is worse than fractals. 0 drops in I believe 45 runs. This is with everyone having the keys for the 5 chests at the end even.

Pretty much only ran now if a guild mate needs the meta done. Which can be done in one go if 2-3 of the group knows the zone/fights and you tithed to the mystic toilet recently. Voice chat helps too.

More hats...mostly a Fez

After seeing that Black Feathered Wing Backpack previewed we need more hats. And by hats I mean a Fez (Fezzes are cool). This way I can have my Asura run around pretending to be one of the Wicked Witch’s monkey minions from Wizard of Oz. “Get the shinies my pretties HAHAhahaha!…”

I can’t be a Skritt so I’ll take a Fez…oh man a Skritt with a Fez!

Skip to end for cutscenes!

All the cut scenes need a skip button. We had a huge post about this before. It’s mind numbing to have to sit through the things while achievement hunting in story. I don’t know. Maybe a skip button is too confusing to players :b

Can we please kill Phlunt?

in Living World

Posted by: Varkros.4158

Varkros.4158

I know!
Kill Phlunt. Make it look like Marjory and the others killed him and frame Trahearne as the mastermind. Finally my character could have his own story!

Then my character can see all this from the shrubs since he moves slow and isn’t very tall (Asura). Then I can have a new archenemy and before starting a fight I get tangled and snagged in the shrubs.

Panic sets in as MacKela scurries off to spread the misinformation. Finally getting free of the clutching shrubbery (where are the Knights Who Say Ni when you need them?) I trip and arms flailing I land right on Phlunts murder scene just Braham strolls up.

Pain in his eyes, “Boss…how could you…” as he frees his mace. Knowing Brahams thick skull I dash off instead of attempting to explain…

Cut scene ends. Living Story Part 6: MacKela’s Lies begins

Will you prove your innocence and take down MacKela or will you end up like Scarlet?

Tune in next chapter. Same Asuara time. Same Char Channel.

Consistent Disconnects with Error Message

This has been going on for me since the Sept update. Seriously annoying. I’ve tried all kinds of things, ports open, /repair, /userport 80, backflips while holding the router, contacted ISP, waved incense over the router and modem.

Nothing. Matter of fact it’s happening right now every 30 seconds or so. Can’t even craft.

I get this error daily. Play for a bit then it starts to pop every 5 minutes or so. Highly annoying while trying to play through a fractal or a world boss train. Never had this issue prior to the Sept update.

I’ve done all sorts of things. Reset the router, new firmware on the router, deleted the .dat file in gw2, used /port 80, did /repair, adjusted my tin foil hat.

Nothing works. Each time it happens I want to smash something.

PLS respect player's time: skip dialogue

in Living World

Posted by: Varkros.4158

Varkros.4158

This reminds me of the achievement for stomping Scarlet. You couldn’t skip the cut scene…cause we didn’t hate her enough prior to that.

There’s really no point for the dialogue or scenes or whatever else steals time like a Skritt drunk on omnomberry juice.

I’d even settle for an alternate instance of the instance that was just for achievements if a skip button is too much work to slap in. A pop up box similar to dungeons for story mode/exp. Or just make the purple icon version of the place auto plop you in closest to combat. Something other than the current incarnation of pure insanity.

Unless this is what you guys meant by ‘harder’ achievements.

I’d buy gems for this.

I even squeak. Need some help here.

Any time I use a berserker amulet for whatever build it may be (usually standard s/d), soon as another player hits me SQUEEEEEEEEEEE and my air goes out. I’m sure it’s a play issue (like wasting dodges or something to that extent). I’m not spamming 3 unless I see 25 might stacks then I can’t stop myself.

If I’m not using the berserker amulet it feels like I’m using my fist to hit people with instead of weapons. Sometimes it feels that way even while using it (stinkin’ bunkers everywhere).

Am I staying in team fights too long perhaps? Just get a few hits in and squeak away instead?

On a side note, now we need some Asurian squeak toys. Get on it Anet.

What Would YOU Like to Use as a Pet?

in Ranger

Posted by: Varkros.4158

Varkros.4158

As Stooperdale said up there, “raptors”. I however demand it has a skill called, “Clever Girl” and it causes mini-raptors to flank the target from both sides.

A badger; just to swap out and swap back to the real pet and say, “Badgers? We don’t need no stinkin’ badgers!”

An Armadillo. A little chain mail coif for would look great. Maybe it plays dead on occasion…probably mid-fight when I need it most.

Porcupines would be nice too as they get the point across.
