Guild Wars 2

This same thing keeps happening to me, and it happens so random. Being tabbed out the game seems to always result in a crash too, but it doesnt happen right away. Please look into it. A 1000 gem item im regretting purchasing so much because of this. That and also the fact that if im in the mistlock sanctuary, and join a party for fractals, i get no pop up. Then if i go inside, im in a different instance. Going back to LA for fractals, defeats my entire reason for buying access to the mistlock sanctuary.

Not a very big or important suggestion, but I adore that little skritt, and think his animation is really well made. Would love to see it considered for the next batch of mini pets.

For those unaware, Nippkit is the skritt that waters the plants in the Oasis, Dry Top.

Any word on a fix for this?? It’s really hard to change look with no dye preview.

I use Windows 7 Ateam. I have submitted a ticket, and they are trying to find out more by getting me to use GameAdviser. Will update you all, if i get a result

I tried this Healix, it does the same only at an apparent slower speed.

Nothing i try is working. Such a big time waster.

The download numbers keep changing, but nothing happens.

We made our own SAB box in JAIL \o/

For SAB!…………………..

I have been trying to play my lute, with songs that require mild pauses in between some chords. Whenever you pause, even for the shortest time; your character returns to the in combat animation. Then when you try to play the next note, it misses it. Unless i can find songs that require you to not pause even for a quick moment, I’m finding that i cannot play anything.

I would be grateful(as will many i presume), if you could look into this, even though i know it may take some time

Also i shall leave a link to a previous post, stating that there was a very similar issue with the harp that was corrected.

Thank ya Anet o/

Do you mean you had a load of duplicates stored in your bags ready for the free unid replacements?

If so, you needed to have them actually used on characters.

I was thinking that, but its way too far up. I tried jumping on it, but just fell through ;p

Hey hey all, just a curious question. I have been hanging out here repeatedly since it closed, often jumping down the hole. I don’t remember seeing this holographic red platform on the fall down.

Is it new to you guys, or has it always been there?

Yeah i do figure, that they would lose gem sales keeping it one per character.

I wouldn’t mind paying a bit extra to convert it to this any character item. As of now, i guess it would be okay and manageable with say two characters, but anywhere up of that it would become tedious, so you would leave it on one character, and maybe it wouldn’t see as much use. Kinda making not worth the original purchase.

I can see the huge downside for them, but i think some sort of compromise might be better.

I have seen in the past, that people have posted about the Royal Pass etc, and how it is inconvenient to only have it on one character, and if you give it to another it kicks you, etc etc.

The solution from people i have seen, would be to have an account wide bag in your inventory on all characters owned, and therefore any of your characters can access it at any time.

While this is a wonderful solution, as it would serve purpose on so many great levels. For now this looks like something that would take some time or trouble to get right. Who knows maybe not.

What I’m thinking would be a good solution for now, be that once you own the Royal Pass, Air Ship Pass, that you can then speak to an NPC anytime and withdraw one on any character for that characters use. Or even better, have it with-drawable anytime via something like the achievement skins in the Hero menu. We know we already have something in game that is unlimited withdraws that can repeatedly teleport you to the same location, the HoM stone.

Still i think the account bag is an awesome idea, and provides more ways to have people buy gems.

It’s on sale today, i have been waiting for it to come back. I’m just not sure if it’s worth the cost of basically only one character being able to conveniently use it.

Oh gosh. I previewed, and now i regret it… filled with so much want for this now.

Coming soon for the low, low price of 800 gems.

To be fair, they seem satisfied with expanding the options in the existing makeover kits and the gems those items bring in. Maybe it can be added to the next round of hairstyles for humans.

I sure hope so!

I think it is so beautiful, would go really well with a traditional gothic style look or just something elegant.

I can see how it could have some clipping issues. But i don’t really see how this is a big issue, or why it would be for this hair. As the human female straight long hair, and the long wavy hair that is popular, both sit in the same areas. They too also currently clip with armor. I use the straight one on my ele, when it clips i find that it looks kinda tucked into the armor a bit, which i don’t really mind.

I think a bit of clipping isn’t enough to not have this hair, as it is a really good, fairly polished style.

The female lady person

Love this… my first time seeing this thanks to another thread link. I really hope that somehow, someway this can be implemented almost just like that. I re-read those stories for fun and or reference from time to time. It would be nice if they were all in one place

I’m so sad this latest story isn’t in game It reveals so much about why Edrick is. I’m not sad for me, i read it(although on a website -.-) I’m sad for those who don’t spent their time on here, and choose to spend it in game(rightly so)…where they miss all this law and story ;/

C’mon Anet, how hard can it be, to implement some basic text into a living story???

With leagues coming up, highly unlikely they will make trials soon. Would cause unfair play as anyone can make as many trial accounts as they want.

Uh I have a topic for you as well. It is called RNG

I don’t mind some sort of RNG element in a game. It makes you open chests etc. with some amount of anticipation.

However: I do think gw2 rely too much on the RNG factor.

Let’s take Tequatl as an example. We all know that organizing this event takes effort. We all know that once you are in the right main server or overflow, you cannot leave. You are stuck there for 1 hour +.

We all know we are rewarded differently for this. Some will get the mini pet, some will get ascended gear, I know of some that have successfully killed him more than 60 times by now and got nothing but greens.

Tequatl is obviously just one example. Another would be the mystic forge for precursors or precursors random drop chance, The Black lion claim tickets, the new weapons from Twilight Arbor. Actually, outside dungeon tokens, most seems to be RNG drop chance.

I think this is a problem. I think there should be some way to work towards something outside RNG.

Crafting precursors (which is my understanding are at high risk of not happening this year) would be a step in the right direction.

Another good idea, which someone suggested elsewhere, would be adding some sort of token for killing Tequatl so people that do not win the RNG lottery are still working towards something. Let’s say you could buy an ascended weapon once you had x amount of tokens. That would mean killing him x amount of times and you might get lucky with RNG, but if you don’t, then you are still working towards something. Tequatl does take a lot of time. Time people could have spent gathering mats for their ascended weapons or time they could have spent jumping on the champion farm train and earned the gold to buy the minipet or ascended materials of the TP.

I feel I lack something outside the RNG. I am not a lucky person. I do however play with someone that seems to be blessed by the RNG gods. Or in his words: “I have silly RNG luck, I have always had silly RNG luck in games”.

We do the same events, the same dungeons etc. I have more magic find than he does, I even play more hours a day than he does, but since the greatest rewards come from RNG…. Well, it doesn’t really matter how much I play or don’t play. It is not that I am jealous of him in that regard, we have played together for more that 5 years and we share a bank, materials, recipes etc. anyway, but I do think it shows the flaws in the RNG system.

I have played this game since February and yesterday I got my 6th exotic drop ever (which sells for the impressive amount of 1.20g) In the meantime, he got 20+. One, which sold for nearly 200g.

Thanks to my friend again I do have the Tequatl mini pet, I do have the abyss and celestial dye but outside gathering crafting materials I never have much to offer in return. The dyes I open aren’t the good ones, I am yet to get anything but greens and 2 cheap exotics from Tequatl. When it comes to who has contributed the most to our character progression, it is not even close to being a draw.

I think it adds to the problem that we now have ascended items. Those are not just cosmetic enhancements, those are actually +stats enhancements. Whether you gain those weapons through drops or through earning gold and buying the materials of the TP, it would help if your income to a higher extend was based on your effort. Outside chopping wood and mining materials, it is all about RNG. I would love to discuss how to possibly change that.

RNG would be a great topic to discuss!

Chris

This post genuinly made me sad. Well done Reesha, you wrote that really well explaining one of the biggest disheartening things in this game. The huge RNG aspect of this game so far, continues to make so many people just feel terrible.

My biggest one has to be when i opened (and mostly paid for) thousands upon thousands of coffers to get a ticket for a jade skin. My friends got so concerned by how much i spent on them, that towards the end of the chance for getting them they started sending me all theirs. On the last batch of a couple hundred my friend had, he sent me them wishing me all the luck…and on the very last 2-4…i got one!

Great that on my last opportunity that i got one, but it just felt wrong spending so much. When my friends had a few drop for them and they hadnt opened a huge amount in comparison.

If there is gonna be RNG, the gap between needs to be alot milder. Or like you said, there needs to be less of it and/or other ways to aquire.

The game is meant to be played how you want to play the game. That’s how it was meant to be played.

In ANY MMO, there are more and less efficient ways to play. That’s why everyone in every profession basically ends up with the same build.

Here, however, it’s a bit different. Because I don’t go full DPS and yes it takes me longer to clear content and I don’t care. Furthermore, I play with other people who don’t care. Ergo, I can play with any weapons I feel like playing…any armor.

We clear content. We get through everything. And we’re not farmers making runs again and again and again for profit, so efficiency doesn’t trump fun.

The moment you let efficiency trump fun, you’re no longer “playing”.

This….

How i missed this trail return, i don’t know. I just had to log back on to confirm ;p

I’m happy there is a trail, but i noticed that before unsheathing at night where the weapon is that pretty three toned blue-purple, that it no longer has that uber long purple, blue trail ;/ Why they had to take that away, is beyond.

You could mail the gold to a friend you trust? If not, you could put a way overpriced sell order in the tp for something. You’d sacrifice the listing fee ofc, but all i can think of. Cheaper than gem conversion. Don’t know an answer to your question sorry.

KotCR.6024:

Awww, was hoping this was a thread dedicated to fans of Ettins. An ettin fan club. I love ettins. They are awesome.

That being said, I picked up one of these as an environmental weapon laying on the floor in Kessex Hills the other day, and actually thought the same; That they seemed pretty powerful and wondered if they were availiable in inventory form, so I would have suggested looking at the heart vendors around there, but it seems you already have.

Next step is to probably try to do a few dynamic event chains related to ettins, there’s quite a few in Timberline Falls and Lornar’s Pass, and one of them (can’t remember which), results in a vendor for Ettin tonics. It’s possible that he sells the Ettin Clubs too I suppose, but I really can’t remember.

Of course, there’s the chance it may have been removed in purchasable form from the game at some point, due to potential abuse of the skill spam in WvW. Anet did do some purge related to that a while back, didn’t they?

I knew you would be in here ;D

Mad Rasputin.7809:

A dungeon run seller that got scammed??

Lmao… “For Great Justice”.

Aha ;D \o/

To OP: I don’t think you can really get action off anet for saying…this guy didnt give me 2g for this dungeon run when he said he would o.0 Selling paths is always gonna be risky. If someone doesn’t pay 2g, just forget it and move on. You got your entitled reward from the dungeon.

I personally don’t know where they had them made. If you take them to a local picture framer, they will make frames that fit them for you. They usually have a variety, so i’m sure plain white can be done. If not, a similar service is online everywhere, just type the size you want. Worst case: Start from scratch and buy a new set of frames that fit.

Hope that helps, if no one can provide a full answer to your question.

Omg i’ve been serching for ages for some kind of list on this. I’ve noticed it to. Its a bit like how the flame and frost dyes are. They have more shaders in etc. Some of the cheap dyes do this too with colous as you’ve mentioned op. Makes armor look fantastic. Yes armors show it more than others, but these few dyes aren’t armor specific.

I’ll add to the ‘list’… Heirloom! It’s a dark reddish/brown dye. But the only one i’ve found to do this as well as it does. I make sure to buy it on all my alts. The colour variations on it are awesome.

I personally think that every class should have access to every weapon…… Would make more sense, and give us more skills and build choices.

But that would be too awesome and too much like GW1.

Oh no we would never want that. /Sarcasm ;p

Huuuuuuuuuge congrats guys! That was epic team work. The zerg parts may be zergy a bit, but it still required a ton of coordination. If people 1spam that zergy style, no way would it work.

This just made me laugh…

Maybe, he has a rare disease where he was born with one head. Or he chopped the other off cause he didn’t get along with it….sold it for an ascended weapon maybe.

I badly want this too. I’m on EU as i live in the uk, and have good friends here. For reasons i am transferring to NA soon. My friends are unhappy we won’t be able to play together at all anymore, as too am i. So i really wish they would allow guesting between NA and EU, id even pay for this.

I have this same problem, i end up getting frustrated and kinda move my mouse fast all over till i see it…i hate it -.-

Btw you turn off double tap to evade in the ‘general’ options tab towards the bottom, its a tick box. Then binding a key to dodge is in ‘controls’

After talking to a friend, i switched my dodge to mouse button 4…was the best thing i ever did. I never accidentally die from double tap, and im never to slow trying to find v(im terrible at it)

<— Necro defending the purple. Although, i do think it should have been a cooler shade of purple, almost blue to better represent the night sky themes. Indigo, i think it’s called.

Nihilus.3015:

SHHHHHHHH delete.

+1 /I seen nothing…

Yeah i think we will see both. It was said that these livings stories are keeping people playing much more than if they weren’t. Like you said you log on and you feel you have to do them if you want the rewards. So as much as we all hate all this rushing and half hearted content….we all do it and come back for more. We wanna see whats new and get all the new, no matter the size. They have achieved what they want, that is more people playing on a daily basis…why would they stop.

Apparently when the living stuff was monthly, people complained it was slow. Personally i would like a monthly release, this gives me a week to focus and be excited by it. Then the rest of the time i could focus on what i wanna do in the game, not what i feel i need to do before it goes. Then they could use the time to produce better content or work more on an expansion. For a business sense though, this isn’t as rewarding for them.

Lets just hope we get a nice surprise early 2014.

Yeah legendaries are the same. Tier 6, ectos, icy runes etc etc…

They have left room for larger charrs, or charrs with heavy armor. Same with my human necro female, she is curvy but short, so her back pieces mostly float. Not sure if intended.

I actually think the shorter ones look like trail footprints, and are more tasteful that say the kudzu ones that are a trail of never ending repetitive green circles. Yeah i notice them, but i’ve never thought they look good. I think footprints should be a few really visable ones then fade out to nothing with 3 more or so. I look towards the future where most people will have one, and the ground being littered by footprints that barely fade…it will look kinda ridiculous.

Lothirieth.3408:

Did the best I could. Footsteps don’t change ever.

Waow, that is stunning.

Great pictures, thank you so much for that. Shame the clouds are so dark on the footfalls, because i’ve never seen this weapon as gloomy and dark. Saying that though, the footfalls are so unique and different to any other weapon. They may be odd but im glad they ain’t the slightly generic circles that footfalls normally are. Beautiful weapon, congrats on owning one. I’m so close to mine, i can’t wait ;p

Colly.4073:

You really think this company is going to give us Guild Halls?

This game holds nothing remotely related to Guild versus Guild, Hell i don’t even know why it’s called “Guild Wars 2”

You might be in luck if it was something they could add to the Gem Store otherwise “Dream On”

Sorry to be so negative in your thread but this game hardly inspires confidence.

Way to go turning a creative, pulling some positive out of no guild halls thread, into the generic guild hall threads we always see ;/

Could anyone possibly post a decent screen of the footsteps at day/night? Can’t get home for a week, and this mobile internet won’t let me watch vids -.- Thank you muchly in advance if anyone does.

I really really want this, have done for a long time. I think chests should be more rewarding for the time and effort out into the event prior to the chest. Cause i rarely get anything worthwhile from mobs. Also chests are a big part of looting in this game, they are everywhere…so i think they should be included.

I hope they find a comprimise for us. Maybe keeping the new night theme as it is because
while the night theme may not be to everyones taste, it is an impressive addition to the legendary scepter. For the daytime… returning the original glow(As it looked polished and really well done) maybe returning the original trail and glow when sheathed.

I personally would like the clouds and lightening to be at night. Maybe something else for the day, but who knows this could have been a more difficult thing to implement.
