Unfortunately we cannot really go out and actually get things we want directly in this game. I know…..right…..So you will need to amass gold instead…..it’s rather sad imo.

Yeah and those people who sell them on the TP magically found them in their bag everyday they log in.

Josh Davis.6015:

The proposed changes to critical damage gear aren’t specifically PvE-focused, but focused rather on the stat weighting of critical damage itself. We’re not aiming to make crit damage unviable, just to bring it closer to other gear sets.

As for the first feature build, there will be other factors coming into play that could very well offset the changes, including reworked runes/sigils, the ability to use sigils in new combinations (including 2 on a two-handed weapon), and the profession balance changes. Just something to keep in mind.

That isn’t really a good rationality. 2-handed having 2 sigil doesn’t specifically help out crit damage builds they help out all builds to a varying degree. If the second sigil brings Crit Damage back to par, it would bring other build above par. But if the 2nd sigil does in fact makes it balance or closer to balance, then what about crit damage build that already have 2 sigil slots (2 1-handed weapons), those build would take a nerf. You could apply this to runes as well, unless there are some overpowered rune sets that gives us ridiculous amount of Ferocity or bigger +% to over all damage.

Most importantly though if it’s 10% crit damage from gear, we would also have to look at the impact it has on traits. Will investing 30 trait points in a trait still give us 30% (meaning the ration is 10:1 for ferocit to Crit damage) but then that wouldn’t make sense. Or are we leaving it just as a 1% increase for trait purposes?

Final update:
After a careful review of our game records, we have sent a replacement Chiroptophobia Greatsword Skin. While no game error occurred we understand that the transmutation process can sometimes be a bit tricky. In the future when transmuting items, please be very careful to never overwrite both the stats and the appearance of an item you wish to keep as doing so permanently deletes that item.
If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!
Regards,

thanks Anet!

~snip~

Thanks, I do realise that this could be a rather difficult task for the GMs to do, I have read other reports of how there system works and even had some gems refunded to me before, but was asked to delete the items manually instead of having it deleted/removed automatically from my inventory. So I do realise how limited they are with the system they use. It’s the situation itself that irked me the most in this case, being ignored on my support ticket and then giving me a impossible task to accomplish. Either event I have a new response:

Thank you for getting back to us.
We are currently investigating your issue with the Transmutation Splitter and the Chiroptophobia Greatsword Skin. Please allow us some time, and we will get back to you as soon as we have an update.
Thank you for your understanding.
Regards,

I’ll continue to update as this situation progresses in case others are wondering or have insight.

I am not sure if I am being tossed around. I submitted a new ticket and was told that:

“Purchases from the Gem Store are seldom refundable, and in this case we are not able to provide a refund of your purchase. We encourage you to exercise care when conducting all your gem transactions.

It seems to me that you transmuted the item over an already transmuted item and did not receive the Chiroptophobia Skin due to it. The Transmutation Splitter only works whit items that have been transmuted once.

I am sorry that we could not fulfill you request in this situation, but please let us know if you have any other questions we can address."

I told the tech support that I am not after a refund of the gems or the items I bought with the gems but I want the skin back. And Further more the item (transmutation splitter) description states no such thing as “only works whit items that have been transmuted once”. I asked them to pass me up to their supervisor if they are unable to refund the skin.

Next email I was told that it might be possible to return the skin of the item if I provide:
• Date and exact time when you got the item
• Your time zone

I replied stating the seriousness of this request as no one I know keep a date/time log of everytime they get in the game and that the best I would be able to do is a approximate time frame. I then get a reply saying that they require that information and that “Please, take as much time you need to look up that information, we will be waiting for your response.”.

My next reply was:
“Could you give me a procedure to find the exact day and time that I have recieved the skin. I am not certain how it is possible to retrieve this information from the client side as I have no logs of transaction with the game server or transaction with other player via mail. Even if I got it from the trading post the best I could get from that is how many days, weeks, or month ago was it bought.”

And then theirs:
“Thanks for your update,

The only information we can provide for you to search purchases from the Trading Post is going to the tab that says “My Transactions” and it will provide you with the information, on Gem Store, it will show you on the right side all the transactions you have done, but the game does not provide the date or time of the purchases in Gem Store. That would be the only information we can provide because our system operate in a different way than the game itself.

Hope this helps you a little bit."

Am I being trolled by the support team? they basically restated what I said, provided no real way of getting that information they requested because it’s impossible for them but yet it’s somehow possible for me? Could I get a response here as I don’t think I can get a real answer via email. If the transmutation splitter does in fact only work on items that have been transmuted only once then please add that to the description and refund my gems back. I’ll take the loss of the skin as collateral damage for trusting item descriptions.

My Warrior, Thief and Necro.

Bump- Still have no reply.

Na Viii, my Ele. Gave her a more merfolk look~

I tried using a transmutation splitter to split the Chiroptophobia Skin. So I could use the skin on a different character, but I didn’t get the skin back. All I got back was the sigil and the regular greatsword used in the process. I have already submitted a ticket but did not get a response, ( this was over a month ago). I checked my spam box too, but nothing. I’d appreciate a response from a member of the support team please.

It isn’t abandoned. A larger force compromising of all the servers was created by players to kill Tequatl. In a way it takes away from the “server pride” some might say, but your servers already have that chance and doing any more kills of tequatl isn’t going to promote it.

It’s simply better to have a small group of people organise this event (it’s done nearly around the clock) and let everyone else enjoy the other aspect of GW2. The price? 1 guild slot.

What the event failed at creating a server fight, it made up in in the fact that it built a community that spans multiple servers (TTS now does more than just Teq and they plan on more stuff).

Of course the biggest annoyance is still the fact that you could wait up to 2 hours to do the fight. I doubt it will change until Anet implment a raid system and then allowing raid leaders to join/create an overflow.

Who cares?
One person spent time to solo the dungeon and sell the path to another person who spent time somewhere else to get the gold to buy those dungeon tokens.

Your comparisson of path sellers to drug deals is completely out of whack, not because it compares real life to video game, but the fact that one actually has real life harm while the other doesn’t. In fact dungeon selling isn’t even against the ToS/EULA, just your own ethical code you are trying to force down other people’s throat. I think I can compare what you are doing to certain religous groups.

Only if they add Gundams.

Which guild was bought by BG exactly? I’d like to hear 1 guild that was bought.

I know JQ paid 100% for Agg and NS…

I don’t really know or care bt I say “buy” because it doesn’t really matter how much BG denies it people will still force it down their throats.

SoR, you be the judge. Are you going to side with BG again during week 7 like you did during week 1 in light of all this? Or are you going to do the honourable thing by siding with JQ to crush BG and demoralize them?

If it were up to me I’d focus down on JQ base on the assumption that you’re on JQ. Even if BG “bought” their win, it’s no where near as annoying as someone begging for a win. But I think SoR has already settled for going after whichever brings the best fights. Personally I’m disappointed with the lack of fights we had with BG during Oceanic times, even when we were out-numbered they run off. It’s been more entertaining fighting against Mag and TC this week. Hopefully with when Wk7 rolls around and it doesn’t matter wheater BG gets last 4rd they are still going to win, they will ease up on the “bore you enemies to death” strategy.

Which is why SoR teamed up with BG during the first week, right? We certainly begged to win back then… whatever your logic is, it doesn’t make sense. It’s about honour. You want to reward treacherous behaviour.
As for BG running off, we had the same experience. Holy arrow carts. They can only face on if it’s 2v1… Give them a taste of their own medicine.

I never said my reasoning is based on logic, it’s my personal decision. I could sit here and tell you that SoR didn’t team up with BG the first week, and the only thing people keep pointing to as “proof” is that during the meeting before the leagues began we planned on focusing on JQ, there wasn’t even a peep of talk about teaming up with them in some pact against JQ. If that doesn’t make sense to you or why that decision wasn’t isn’t in the best interest of SoR at the time, then there is no debating with you. However in mid week JQ and BG did form a pact against SoR, JQ asking for 2nd knowing they can’t get first, but in the end them helping BG and then BG turned around and back stabbed them once it was clear SoR could no longer take first that week. So there’s your JQ honor.

I base my decision on who I would want to take down on how people act. I would never agree to a 2v1 against BG or JQ, I don’t have any particular hate for BG for “buying” guilds, it just nsures I get good fights when I am on, I am only disappointed in them running away so often.

As for the person who said there are multitudes of reasons why BG would run from a fight, I already know that strategically it’s in the best interest to run and defend at certain points. And I thought that sevral times when BG blob just moved away form ours. But after it was apparent that we were the only sizable force left in any map, and their map blob simply keep evading fights with us that it was them forcefully running away. I don’t know what special tactics was involved for BG to run from east side of Garrison after seeing our zerg to the west side when we own garrison and can reach the other side much faster, then run again when we see them instead of just facing us in open field wit hgreater numbers.

ChapDev.7650:

Speaking of Duels thank you SoR and TC people who were trying to Fightclub ^-^

Sorry I bowed out early but if Karma trains will keep rolling through i’m just going to go to bed.

(Ps – That lag.)

Why don’t you guys just start using Obsidian Sanctum? that place is empty and Karma trains won’t derail to mess with you guys.

If I played a game and I got max gear and beat every content in 3 months, I’d be pretty bored. Whe nthe game becomes so trivial that I can just roll over and throw some gold to get any set of armor I want, it’s trivial, there is nothing to look for to in the game.

Even wit htime gate, the game is already too easy, I would complain about the time gated crafting if there is actually challenging content in the game.

I would say the only thing expansion-worthy for GW2 is new race/class. Everything is delivered via living story content and updates. It’s not as easily seen cause its small updates over a long period of time with big influxes once a while rather than the traditional large chunks of update at once.

Wouldn’t the Toxic stone provide more DPS because of the extra tick of burning on Combustive shot and 2 extra tick of torment on Sw5 while providing a 100% to bleed?

Agreeing or not doesn’t really matter. Guardians can still do good DPS in serkers gear while contributing greatly to the groups survival via their utilities. WoR and Sanctuary can be swapped in and out on the fly between encounters.
