How to reset the game's hud/gui?

Months ago I accidently moved the compass. I want to move it back to it’s defult spot of the screen. I try to hold left side of the mouse, only for the compass to scroll. Is there a hidden option to reset the screen, the GUI/HUD? I searched and searched the web many times and it seems no one has the answer. I can’t stand where the compass has been moved to. I won’t play this game until a solution has been given or found. Please help ASAP.

My prediction is coming true (DEs and fewer people)

Uh, what? Are we playing the same game?

If it wasn’t that you need to purchase the game to post here, I’d say he doesn’t…

Unfortunately, there are people who are willing to part with a sum of money to get their favourite form of entertainment. Whatever that is.

Uh? If you have purchased the first guild wars you can login and post w/o the second. Found this out b4 my purchase of the second.

There is a portal power for one of the professions (stop calling it classes people) If a party member has it, they can “teleport” you across difficult parts.

Progression and Crafting

I have never got discovery to work. I have items for it, but it won’t let me craft the new items cause of my lvl not being high enough. lvl 75 to craft the next tier of items is ridiculous. 245 for the one after that? WTF. I have crafted a ton of stuff with only items i gathered and salvaged. Yet my levels are only 20 each?

I don’t think they are ever going to “fix” this. The waypoint cost along with armor breaking are GW2’s equal of a death pen.

Already done the re-install thanks. But still no use of the market after words. I rather have the guilds then the market. For me having friendly faces to talk to is more important then buying from the market.

I had others buy stuff for me and pay them back the coin. Apparently GMs didn’t like that and I had received a warning.

EDIT I forgot to point out even with the local dat gone I still didn’t have the shop.

I have both issues as well. They are working (after week of myself and other complaining) on a fix. they recommend deleting the local.dat file from the yourdocuments/guildwars folder. I don’t however recommend this. Lost my ability to represent guilds when I did it.

Can't represent guild I've been in since head start, No deluxe elite skill on my engineer

Don’t know about the guild issue. but it has been said only characters made after upgrading to the deluxe get the level 30 elite skill. Judging by other post the issue is a low one and will be fixed sometime later.

i said above somewhere that i’d just take my money back for now but honestly, this will get fixed, i know it, and you don’t need it. the main reason i bought it is so that 5 years down the road it’s not available, i can bust it out and people will say “man, wow sucks where’d you get those wolves”

and i can stroke the kitten

HA! It has been how long since gw1 came out? Guess what? You can still buy deluxe upgrade and items for it. consider your party rained on.

I don’t recommend deleting the local dat file. After doing so I lost the ability to represent guilds. Had to do a complete reinstall to fix it. Yet i still can’t buy/sell items from the trading post. Must be a server side issue for some.

in the official trading post bugs topic, a mod said they are currently working on a solution for this exact problem. There work around is to delete the local.dat file from the your documents/guilwars2 folder on the pc. Ths didn’t work for me however.

Waypoint Costs

I logged in today and waypoint prices are much higher that they were yesterday. Going from Divinity’s to LA is like over a silver now I spend most of the morning walking to asuran gates for travel instead of using waypoints. I feel that the game has slowed down for me…and I feel penalized for using the waypoints. I don’t mind a few coppers to bounce around and help guildies, go to an area I left off exploring to continue there…but I just don’t have the coin to bounce around now. SAD FACE! If we can go back to the pricing yesterday (the 7th) I could jump right back in. I’m done for today

The waypoint cost increases based on your level!

So by level 80, helping friends is indeed a costly thing to do…

I did not know this. thanks for the info.

Just found this thread. Reposting my problem here:

I have went to buy items from the trading post with my coins and the buy button doesn’t work. Doesn’t light up at all. Tried to use make an offer as a work around but the offer button isn’t working as well. Sent screen shot ingame to gm. Hopefully this issue gets solved.

Also all items in the trading post are showing up as needing lvl 0 to use them. Didn’t notice it when I sent my original report in game.

Anyone else having these issues? Anyway around them?

I fully support this. Around 10% of the male and around 3.5% of the female population have partial color blindness at birth. While about 1% of each of gender is full on color blind, they see everything in gray scale.

I believe they should change it so if u die you can choose to go to the nearest waypoint at a discount or pay regular price to go to one of your choosing.

I think it should be changed so the price goes down with each one you find in a map area too. Get them all?, then you can travel for free (or nearly free) within that map area.

Also think activated vista’s should act as waypoints but only if you not dead. This way you can help other players reach them. Also doesn’t seem like there is enough way points.

I don’t know why they changed it, but I doubt people saying you could level to 80 just by cooking was the reason. Each crafting job only gives a maximum of 10 levels to begin with. A little nervous to see if any other crafts have been changed.

You already answered that. By switching crafting duties you can max out ur lvl to 80 quickly. Yes only 2 can be active but you can gain exp from each of the jobs by switch them once you were done with one. Cooking was the easiest to get items (thus fastest to gain exp) cause u could just buy most of them. Was never meant to be fast gaining exp frpm crafting. So they removed a ton of the cooking items from sale. This isn’t a bug. This was them balancing the cooking job to match the other crafting jobs. It is just something they over looked during the betas and head starts. Now it is fixed.

Well GW1 used to have a setting where only ur target’s name showed up. Also baddies showed up as red on the mini map, allies as green and drops as yellow. I miss them both and they should of been added to gw2.

Don’t craft. It is a long dawn out process and it will eat your soul! Seriously crafting is far too complex than it should be.

Any other Guild Wars1 players disappointed with the changes of GW2?

Not trivial to me at all. They have slowed my progress down a lot and have made the game a frustrating experience. I have bought all the expansions for the original game and spent hours after work playing. If changes are not made, I won’t be spending another penny on Guild Wars 2. Besides the map and lore, it is guild wars in name only.

I know I am. The crafting system is a pain in the butt. There was nothing wrong with the old way; Take required items to NPC and pay cash to get new armor, weapons ect.

Waypoints. Why do they cost money? I can understand if they cost a fee to travel huge distances (aka between different map sections), but to cost money when I am traveling within the same map area is ridiculous. Especially when you die. When you die, it should give you the option to go to the nearest discovered waypoint for free or pay to go to a different one.

Ingame cash. I found getting cash to be really slowed compared to the first game. On my 4th day of play and it took a really long time to even reach 4 silvers. Losing cash to waypoints and armor repairs.

That brings up my next complaint. WTF is with armor damage? Die one or two times and your armor becomes near useless. This and the hoops you have to jump threw for crafting are my biggest turn offs of the game. Why have this at all. It is a pointless game aspect, designed to slow down no-lifers (those who sit on the game 24/7) and all it does is slow the progress down of legit players.

Anet if your listening, bring back the simple crafting of Guild Wars1. Ditch the armor damage or make it take many deaths to break armor. Make this game more enjoyable to play. Did you guys and gals really think copying the worse aspects of the kitteny MMOs would make GW2 a good game? Cause you were dead wrong.
