Guild Wars 2

might be related to a full tp somehow

jonnoy.1748:

I can confirm that adventure rewards (chests, mastery points, achievements) are somehow gated behind the Trading Post delivery box.

I’m also a bit upset that all that experience went to the character that checked the trading post (who’s below level 80) instead of my character that’s training masteries who actually completed the adventure achievements.

this could explain my problem, I have over 1million items clogging my trading post atm and it’s gonna take ages to sell lol. I’ve been going crazy because im not getting rewards and it is making my progress so slow.

tried again on a completely new one, still completely broken please fix

An hour after launch I still had not finished downloading everything but hit play anyway, I power lvled a rev with tomes and got into verd brink.

I did the tendril torch adventure and got bronze, I got a daily chest and bronze achieve credit. I did it again and got silver for no rewards but the daily thing said I received the reward, I got gold a few times later and it also said i got the reward but never got a reward or exp.

My achievements are not updating either and i have not received the exp or mastery points.

After Every reset I try a new adventure with even worse results. For bronze I dont get the daily chest anymore and it says I have received all of the chests for every adventure I do before even doing it and the achievements are never granted for completing silver or gold.

Sent in multiple bug reports but havent heard anything.

I get bronze participation achieve credit for every adventure I do but no daily rewards/higher achievements/exp

how is farming mobs an exploit? it isnt a glitch and still takes a while.

superherofan.8042:

To recap for changes requested:
1) Add a 25% movement speed trait
2) Keep the passives up when activating virtues or cut the cooldowns in half.
3) Make traps ground targetable.
4) Unroot #2 longbow

yes, no, maybe, no

Just going to add onto the complaining about the judges intervention change, was really looking forward to comboing wings immob with it and now i cant do gs 3 hammer 2 or wings with it, is so frustrating. Please change back, it would make the class 10x more fun to play.

As for the rest of pvp I was obliterating people with medi dragon hunter, greatsword autos critting harpooned people for 3-4k. harpooning multiple targets then bursting them was really satisfying too. Overall the class is great, ji just needs to be usable in the air again.

I feel like all skills should be as well tbh, other mmos that allow that are way more fun because of the freedom of movement. Being able to jump off a cliff in wow then charge back up was always fun etc. In archeage you could do a backflip up a cliff if you timed it right, the main thing this game is missing is freedom of movement.

Wasabi Kitty.8247:

The first 3 aren’t supposed to be that hard as they’re only mini-bosses. The last one is the only true boss.

ya rofl, the colour dudes are just trash mobs, it’s nice that op thinks they are bosses i guess lol

We all lost squad chat, people cant leave the squad after the commander did, commander couldnt invite or kick anyone anymore, first 3 beacon dudes were really easy with 8 people.

“I could just sit there and spam heartseeker as if its an i-win button”

Stopped reading there. Says everything about your average opponents and yourself necessary to judge your reliability on that matter.

Average opponents? Well i guess “average” being a 53% winrate then sure. but yea as a warrior i never had an ability that i could just spam once i ran out of other options. Surprisingly, its not that hard to get people to %50 as theif, i don’t really know that backend of it all as i copied my entire build off of metabuilds

Sorry it’s hard to believe but, a warrior player just picked up the supposed “skill class” and owned it. Do i need to stream it for you?

53% winrate is way worse than average for people that regularly pvp

also warrior vs thief is pretty much 50/50 when both people are decent, might be more favoured for warrior after the blinding powder and warrior steal spin nerfs. Also stealth means pretty much nothing to good players, it is really easy to control where people will go after they stealth (but that is a really long explanation and a lot of people dont understand)

it makes sense to stay stealthed, the only way to break stealth is by doing damage, if you really cant play against thieves then practice interrupting the skills that expose them to heavy damage like heartseeker, black powder, stealth heal, and basi

who would bother cheating in this game lol

i dont see why people dislike courtyard, tdm is really enjoyable if you arnt terrible… oh

the rewards are terrible anyway why are you kids complaining, go win some weekly/ monthly cups if you want to show you are the best at pvp

just interrupt the channel you nerds…

fixed wooooooooo

they set the alert sound to broadcast even if you have game sound muted while alt tabbed, why are all of you staring at your screen when you can be doing so many other things while alt tabbed

i want my boxing gloves back, tonic is dumb

what was the point of op’s video?

so up until recently my juggernaut has made all of my outfits and cosmetic helmets look amazing but that seems to no longer be the case. This seems like a huge bug since there is no reason to remove awesome functionality from the game. So atm all the outfits i own and my wizard hat, avitors, aviator cap, top hat etc do not get coated in quicksilver when my hammer is equipped even though they used to for the last 2 years. anet plz

they are both completely faceroll lol

play a fast high damage tank like zerker lb/gs war, celestial engy, or dd ele and roam around obliterating the noobs on the other team, then their moderate noobs will try to res and you cleave them, then their 1 or 2 good players are in a temporary 2v5 and you kill them too. Always find the weak link and destroy them, it’s how I win all my matches (have a 75% winrate over almost 100 games since ladder reset)

Edit: also some basic things like:

• always expect to use a stunbreak (finger always over the button no matter what, i use my mouse thumb buttons) especially on skyham you can stop being pulled by stealth people if you expect to be pulled and instantly react as your body gets thrown into the pit (actually pretty easy).

• cleaving downed people is almost always better than stomping since you usually kill the ressers too (unless your ally is down then pop stab and stomp them)

• dont stand in the middle of the teamfight or infront of people with cleaving attacks that arnt targeting you, you can do just as much damage on the outside of the teamfight and only need to stand on the point if there is no one else there.

• think of your noobs as meat shields, if they are getting stomped most of the time you can just cleave down the guy trying to stomp instead of trying to res (mainly for gs war, best build for soloq imo)

• it’s ok to run from fights, if you are low and the enemy isnt close to dying then just run away, all of the classes i mentioned should have no trouble surviving, just run far enough to reset and get a fast heal then come back in, only takes ~13 seconds

this might just be the whiniest thread I’ve ever seen.

It should not matter when teams face each other because the only result that matters is first. if you arnt playing to win it all then you shouldnt be playing to begin with.

get out of here with your greedy whining about consolation prizes, if you consider yourselves to be a competitive team then you should be embarrassed by your loss, not happy with whatever garbage pve reward you happen to get.

Game is so esports, tol full of pvers rofl

at first I didnt understand how anyone could complain about top 8 seeding when the best team will win no matter who they face Then I realized that everyone is a carebear and worrying about the 35 losers getting the prizes they “deserve” for not winning the tournament is important to them…

Celtus.8456:

This gave me a better idea: make a sort of “SAB” that sends people to a Gw1 style world. Then we can really have good PvP.

sab random arena or riot

i think there are going to be weekly bi weekly or monthly tog’s

all the kids kicked off their teams should make a new team: Too Yung For Esports [qq]

Liewec.2896:

Q: what direction is this class taking?

A: unload, unload, UNLOAD, UNLOAD, UNLOAD, UNLOAD!

the age of the pewpew thieves will begin

Im just really excited to run my s/a gs build, even if i die to retal everytime i press axe 5. imo axe 5 should be reduced to 10 hits and the damage of every hit should be upped by 50%

add team rosters plz, i still have no clue who is on no clue unless i find the vod which twitch might have deleted.

#rekt

but imo maybe 3 people in na arnt terrible at this game and probably 1 or 2 in eu so you are always going to be paired with noobs

google y u mute 99.9999% of twitch vods :/

the only important question for all of them is do you even lift?

Evan Lesh.3295:

Nope, not on autopilot. Nope, not designed by one designer. I Promise features are coming eventually. I want them finished and as badly as you do!

confirmation that there are now at least 2 people on the pvp team!

Guard.6751:

Sweet! Do you have a link?

twitch.tv/blu42 vods are there under past broadcasts

edit: also totally called that kitten, you had such an easy road to second place :P

MarkPhilips.5169:

This game is 90% PVE living story.

It’s a fact and it’s a very waste of pvp potential.

and 9.999% wvw

Don’t joke around, WvW is much worse off than sPvP (although both are desolate). The last real WvW update we got was ruins/bloodlust last fall, and that was universally loathed. EotM isn’t WvW because it is not World versus World.

I was referring to population distribution

MarkPhilips.5169:

This game is 90% PVE living story.

It’s a fact and it’s a very waste of pvp potential.

and 9.999% wvw

if you stay in a certain range for like 20 games after playing 100 games then that is enough to let you know where you stand atm, the range being ~100 rank spread.

The main problem is there is no incentive for most people to play because the majority of the gw2 pop is scared of pvp, or really wants gold, or is fed up with anet having 1-2 devs on all of pvp so they just pve now or have quit. So the leaderboards arnt a measure of much when probably less than 500 people play it actively in NA.

Go play csgo if you want a really fun strategic pvp experience.

tichorum.2415:

Woooooow is Zeromis, Countless, Qwho, and 2 others (unsure of who). Will be a solid showing IMO.

so 5 mesmer comp? yes plz

Dirame.8521:

I guess anyone editing anything may not be such a good idea in some cases.

though it is pretty hilarious. The site needs some polish but it really reminds me of pvx, very cool.

sounds like you swapped specs a ton, just stick with something fun like dps guard and spin to win.

See I have literally no idea who is on woooooooooooooow, and people were all like JTC was going to be amazing but half of that team just over extended, trickled, and got destroyed. So I really dont know what to expect anymore and Im just going to assume that every team that isnt seeded 1/2 isnt actually very strong. (unless team rosters start appearing with brackets for the theoretically stronger teams!)

masskillerxploit.2165:

Q3 too stackedddddddddd…. for na at least lel.

You have a really easy road to second place :P

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Congratulations Blu!

Vee Wee is amazed at how everyone all chipped in for a dedicated member of the Guild Warts 2 community! This gives Vee Wee an idea! Vee Wee would like to start a fundraiser for Arenanet! For every x amount of money we donate to Arenanet, Arenanet has to release a balance patch or fix Skyhammer or buff Engineers or something else the game desperately needs! How much would you all donate!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

No one cares if you are number 1 engi lol.. 1st off there are not that many “good engies” to compare you to.. second off most of the lvl 80 spvp rank people skyhammer farmed.. NOW if you were to say you were in your 60-70s that would be legit.. but anyone 80 now a days i laugh at.. usually they die just as easy as the lvl 10s

O and engis are in a good state atm.. prob a little to good but they are in a good spot.. stop QQ more pew pew

First person to bite on that hook in quite a while.

Also ive said way less rude things than lopez and had my posts deleted, is he sleeping with all the mods?

ps gz blu

noob engy complaining about not being able to deal with a certain build in team game plz halp

pretty much… :/

ya i dont mean revive the scene just make it so you can do a q and not have 3 noobs an average player and a guy in the top 50 carrying in every soloq, maybe like 1 noob and 3 average players :?

It’s a fun map, it just needs the glass floors around a and c removed (maybe hammer but idk)

xantosnightwish.5438:

Haha saw this thread and thought “Oh crap what did we do!?!”

First off, thanks for the compliment OP. Christian and I have a long way to go before we’re on Blu’s level of shoutcasting. Its a lot harder than it looks people

You can catch the replay over at www.twitch.tv/digitalprosports

I honestly think NA’s scene is growing but there’s a clear gap between the “pro’s”
vs the “still learning to rotate effectively”. Part of the problem with having qualifiers spread over 4 weeks is ya gotta spread the top teams out. While this is a great chance for newer teams/players to get on stream, it also means that youre naturally going to have some lopsided matches.

The NA pvp community is not growing, its dying. Its been dying since a month into the game. All the “competitive” teams get good, realize the game isnt gonna get any better, and leave. The bad teams, that are better than the worst teams, fill in this gap and become the new “competitive” teams. People keep leaving those left notice the overall lack of skill, until you have the biggest guildwars 2 tournament qualifiers with less viewers than some guy playing earthbound. Guess im tired of being optimistic with this game lol.

ya :/ even months ago in our pug groups we were destroying pretty much everyone except 3-4 real teams and even then it was pretty close despite the fact that we barely used voip.

I think the only thing that will even marginally save the scene now is if anet makes pvp as rewarding as it was in gw1. The horde of pve farmers probably has a couple 100 decent players that could become semi-competitive if it was more rewarding than grinding content over and over.

Rangers don’t lack damage, they lack *BURST

liek necro lacks cond and warr needs more cc this gaem so unbalanced

Im going to assume youve never played signet berserker ranger.

1. Dodge obvious Maul attempt telegraphed by the ranger growing in height.
2. Effortlessly burn them down while they whack you with the wet noodle known as ranger GS auto attack
3. Rinse
4. Repeat…

be me
be level 3 gs ranger in wvw
see red
attack red
click number 2 skill “maul”
the red appears to be a master of combat as he dodges my well timed maul strike
continue auto attacking waiting for maul to come off cooldown
command pet bear to do bear things
bear stares at me
thx bear
notice my ultimate maul attack is ready for use
slowly move mouse to the maul icon
get rolled by zerg
mighty red opponent dances on my corpse and posts about his great victory on the forums
mfw :/
