Guild Wars 2

I’m experiencing this too. two of my characters are now stuck in a loop of getting kicked out of silverwastes. Each time it sits and flops between brisban’s loading screen and the wastes loading screen a few times, before thinking it connected and playing in-world sound before throwing me to the char select screen with the lost connection error (code=7:11:3:191:101)

edit- managed to be on long enough to run through the portal out of brisban. Error’d on me after a few seconds of running on the other side

edit2- logging back in on that character is now showing silverwaste load screen, when I am logged off in brisbane. besides these two characters my others are staying connected fine elsewhere

edit3- ported a character from rata sum to the waypoint near the LA mystic forge. DC’d, then logged back in to find myself at a random waypoint in rata sum with the message about the waypoint having been contested and I was moved to an nearby waypoint. hmm

thanks gaile, I was getting antsy since others have told me their ticket had been taken care of as of yesterday.

I’m really not happy with the choice of the update, though it seems it’s still acceptable to many people. The disparity of in-game cost of the armor equivalents was definitely high and it should have been changed in one form or another, but I thought from the way everything was stated before it’d be a -new skin- to make up for the situation. I’m disappointed it was not only another reskin (that was half of the complaints though, that they were just quick reskins, no?), but of an armor that I have no interest in the looks, nowhere near worth the 800 gems

the more I read, the more I’m happy I managed to buy the set. No matter what comes of it I’m sure it will yield something of interest

I demand you give me a refund for wasting my time with your comment. I risked getting hit by a car when I red this, so refunding my time is not enough.

stop browsing forums on the road you dip

The issue isn’t that it look like existing armor, it was that it was existing CULTURAL armor.

I’d hate to settle for spending 800 gems on tacky flame covered versions of armor I can get with 5-10 gold or a pocket full of karma. Fancy fire or not, those particular armor sets are not only pre-existing, they’re nothing special

I really don’t get why people are calling the light one the ~worst decision ever~, when the medium and heavy armors still sit there? Awful sets I rarely see people use in the first place and people whine when the good one finally opens up to more users. And “just adding flames” is hardly a good descriptor, the added effect and glow patterns are beautifully placed I can’t imagine it wasn’t done with a lot of thought from whomever is responsible for the sylvari design language. Passing it off as an accident isn’t going to cut it, but I’d like to say whoever did this reskin did it very well.

I actually decided to dump money into the gemstore just for this and REALLY hope that whatever redesign comes along isn’t just a downgrade to invader’s armor, especially if the refund is only in gems. It’s wholly unfair that the other two sets are left as is for how ugly and cheap they were in comparison.

Heck, the outburst over the light set probably wouldn’t have been as explosive if the other two skins were from sets of any value. We got 120 gold, a pocket full of karma in WvW and the pit fighter set. That balance is ridiculous, adding to the fact that the gems to buy the light cost ~half as much in gold as the real set and feels incredibly unfair to people who spent their time saving up to buy the real T3.

I’m conflicted because I love the style and would like a way to keep it for my Sylvari, but I know it was given under extremely cheap/unfair circumstances. I hope the new skin(s) do justice to the price tag, else I suppose I’ll have to go back to envying Councillor Flax and risen trash mobs
