I’d say your friend messed up something. I’ve transmuted three ascended weapons so far with no issues.
I use level 80 exotics with BL kits and get an average of 1 or 2 per salvage. You can get zero though. I suppose with some horrid luck you could go 0 for 20, but it’s more likely that you were using under level ones.
Yes that’s correct. The recipes require a vial. A random drop from fractals. Or you can save fractal relics and buy one. The only other ascended back in the game was the tentacle thing from the Karka event that could be upgraded to ascended, but it has settler stats only.
If you really want to do one, guest to a busy server I guess. Although you likely won’t complete it, even with a full map of players, it’s a pure Aetherblade farm. I’m not complaining though, it popped in Frostgorge this morning and we farmed 60 champion boxes during P2 and failed. You are likely to see a lot more people show up when it’s in Frostgorge or Fireheart btw, since all the boxes will be exotic. The lower level zone ones are usually ignored.
It’s account bound so it won’t help. You know if you have the gold, you can just buy the time gated finished materials from the TP, right?
If you read the patch notes before asking useless questions you will find your answers.
I think vol is the only one who knows what they are talking about here.
To add to his post:
- the game treats solo players and groups the exact same. They are both equal “entities” and must pass the damage threshold to get xp/loot.
- there is no timer or cut-off point, it’s purely a total damage calculation
- even if your group does 90% of the mobs HP, you must do at least 1 dmg to be considered part of your team
- when there is only one target it is much easier to pass the damage threshold as a solo player (Frostgorge champ train). I don’t join groups for this and I’ve never missed loot even with 60 other people there. Compared to the Ember farm, where there are multiple mobs and groups can attack 2-3 champs at the same time. As a solo player you are extremely lucky to get loot here.
The funny thing about all of this is that the more groups that form, the more you need to be in a group. If every player stayed solo, many more people (basically everyone) would get loot, as one player cannot do enough damage to a champion alone to lock anyone else out. This is why it’s so easy to get loot during map invasions, even as a solo player. Most others are solo, and even if they are grouped, they are often split up or not attacking in the same area.
You entered into an overflow map that was created too late. They just did a patch and when most people logged back on it was already past the timer. Leave that map and do something else until the next one pops.
Sweet, I’m on pace to get everything done in 15 years.
I would like a low res video of someone’s mini flying a kite.
Rebinding it works the best, but it still AoE loots with F. You just can’t have the “search” pop-up on the screen. If it says “search” it will just loot once. If you step away and press it, it loots everything in the area.
Feels like my fps goes from about 90 to 15 when I play this cinematic.
The use of these movement skills has nothing to do with the quality of someones computer, or Internet connection. Latency is what matters. I have the fastest consumer Internet available on the planet but since I’m in Korea, my ping is too high for the skills to work correctly about 50% of the time. I’ve been playing since launch and this is the first thing high latency has ever impacted. This is not the same as jumping puzzles. High latency will not impact your normal jumping. I managed to get everything done but it was really frustrating to watch NA players hit #3 and land on a platform but when I hit #3, I overshoot the platform by 10 feet. I hope consideration for this kind of thing is kept in mind for future content.
Love when people don’t read and just rage on forums instead.
You probably got one from mining a node and din’t notice.
It seems to have gotten harder to get badges, today 10 kills – 0 badges. Monday 20 kills – 3 badges. I uses to 10 – 20 badges a day, what happened?
Math happened.
SoS again with a bad luck roll. R1 vs. R7 is pretty brutal, I feel for you guys.
Yak’s Bend was a no go.. I guess the site is wrong.
Hands down the least effective class in WvW. Please nerf.
You can’t buy the heavy pvt helm with karma.
Dungeon tokens or WvW badges only.
TIL the good JQ WvWers are all caught up in finals or transitioning back home from campus.
Please Anet reconsider this change and revert it.
+1 Please revert. I can’t see anything good coming from this. ANet get the guilds out fighting each other in the field, not hiding behind walls with 5 ACs able to wipe a huge force in seconds.
Not sure what people expect. T1 servers shouldn’t recruit more guilds? SoR and BG should just go stagnant and JQ can keep winning by 40k points every week? If I was on JQ I’d be happy to see better competition.
There is only 1 piece of the PVT set missing from the karma vendors. But you need to visit more than one temple.
For heavy the helm is missing.
For medium the legs are missing.
For light the legs are missing.
Grenth temple sells all the PVT jewelry.
120 badges plus 1 gold is pretty easy to pick up the 6th piece. If you don’t WvW (then no point of PVT gear anyway) you can get PVT dungeon armors from AC, SE and HotW.
The murderball meta is coming from the fact that melee (basically the heavies) can just spam the 1 key on the move without even needing a target and cleaving multiple enemies. Too late to change this mechanic so unless ANet finds a way to better reward splitting people up, nothing will change.
Yep, my whole guild getting it bad. Not even in WvW, just doing anything running around LA. About 0.5 – 1 second lag on all actions.
Honestly sick and tired of this. t1 has become boring as hell. Just logged in and again as per every single night at this hour (gmt+8 10.30ish), the 1million man foo zerg is attacking sor gari. Same kitten different night.
LOL. “Every single night” = 4 days since the restart. I guess you don’t realize Blackgate dealt with this for the past 6 weeks. FoO switches focus to the new #2 power (as they should) and suddenly WvW is not fun for you.
This has been happening for the past week. I was 7 months lag free before this. I play from South East Asia (South Korea). The lag starts for me at about 8:00pm (gmt+9) and continues until 2am when I give up and go to bed. It’s likely some routing problem along the way across the ocean but it basically started since last patch. All areas of the game are affected.
I had this yesterday. I followed a video guide perfectly and got them all but no achievement. I noticed the entire time my baubles were full. 500/500. So I went to the bank and emptied them. I did it exactly the same again and it registered the next time. I’m not sure if that’s the answer for you, but try it again making sure you aren’t near max baubles. It’s possible they aren’t being counted if they don’t actually go in your inventory.
Just use tab. If you target a frog in the background it’s not the right time. If tab targets his amulet, it’s time to get a shard to drop off. If tab targets his face, he’s about to open his mouth get ready to throw.
World 2 is the one with the rapids and raft. It’s connected to W1 if you keep playing through but if you want to only do W2 later it’s a separate house in the lobby.
Same for me but 26/27.
So, this patch would give us new stats on invader gear finally.
Im sorry but I really do not understand how a dev team can come up with the idea that for the big WWW patch! we will release.., just weapons.., armor might follow later.
or am I missing a vendor somewhere?
The weapon vendors sells all the normal stat combos, zerker, rabid etc etc but the armor vendor sells only the normal invader.
I know I know be happy we got anything at all…, but no! I cant for the love of me understand how its possible to come up with the idea to give us weapons but not armor.., what were you smoking and can I have some?
The idea most have bin to release it all, and somehow you forgott, or did you honestly never thought of the idea to do armor aswell?
well rant of, back to doing idotic dungeons for the right stat combos =P
Walk over to the other vendor = profit.
Definitely do the following zones 100% for 2 exotics + crafting mats:
- Mount Maelstrom
- Fireheart Rise
- Frostgorge Sound
- Straits of Devistation
- Malchor’s Leap
- Cursed Shore
That’s 12 exotics and hundreds of crafting mats as rewards. The exotics are random but obviously have a chance to contain superior runes and sigils that can be worth up to 8g each.
Please for the love of the gods take the screen in daylight, and put the sun or whatever the light source is behind the camera.
I would also re-bind the hide UI button to something simple like F12.
All the PVT trinkets are at Grenth. The PVT heavy helm is not available at a temple. You can buy it with WvW badges or do Ascalon Catacombs for it.
All temple gear:

200,000 pages? I wonder what kind of resources it uses to keep all that information for each player. That seems insane.
Clear button is needed for sure.
Armor doesn’t filter by type but there’s a drop-down for weapon type maybe you missed.
The guy was also backed with materials by a guild, if I recall right. They did it largely to see if it was possible, and the end verdict was “possible, but exceedingly reliant on others”.
Hmm.. not sure what a guild has to do with this. It costs only like 60g to buy all mats and level all 8 crafts to 400.
There was a video about 2-3 months back of a guy doing it in 3 hours.
Magic find has no effect, and medal color / dmg also has no effect.
You can also craft infusions with 5 AR +5 stat in the mystic forge.
Yeah you will need a vial from fractals as they are account bound. I don’t enjoy fractals but really wanted a quiver so I put some magic find on (not sure if it even works for those) and just ran lvl 1-2 fractals over and over for 2 days until I finally got a vial to drop.
I had this issue with my last character. The temple remained contested but I was still able to commune after a few attempts. There was a gap of about 30 seconds where the thornes didn’t pop on me.
Umm.. actually the problem is that you are trying to use transmute stones. Just double click the skin.
I did that yesterday with a different item. I undercut by 2g. It sold in about 3 hours. The others are still there. Not sold. Others were charging too much imo. I have my gold. I am happy.
No. They have said they will let us know when it’s ready.
