Guild Wars 2

But I hear the click sound! It’s just that the game doesn’t do anything when receiving double click.

None of the suggestd solutions are working.

Strange bug occurred today.
Double clicking mouse doesn’t work in GW2 at all. Starting from character screen (it’s even more strange because I hear a click sound while double-clicking character portrait), to using bags, auto attacking, etc. Game just doesn’t recognize any double clicks.
Any possible fix?

That’s why special tournament rooms, where spectators got delay are needed.

So today I was exploring maps with my necromancer, and I don’t know even how I came up with such an idea. Basically, there could be a master or grandmaster trait, which would make corruption skills draw a related condition from allies (Bleed for Blood is power, vulnerability for pandemic, etc.) and/or apply a boon on allies. Blood is power could simply apply might on allies, Corrosive poison cloud – regeneration. Fury could be thrown in too, I guess on Corrupt boon, because it has longer cooldown so wouldn’t be so OP.
Regarding trait system changes, this effect could be added to Toxic landing (with specialisation system it not only reduces fall damage, but shortens corruption CDs by 20%. Sure there can be balance issues, so it could be made that it only reduces CDs by 10%. If it was too powerful for an adept trait, it could be swapped with something from major traits.
Such a trait wouldn’t require a huge rework on trait lines, yet it would enhance necros in dungeon encounters alot, imho. Thematically it could be explained that necros corrupt themselves and draw corruption from other players (if it’s made to draw a condition from allies) and enhances them in exchange.

It’s not pay to win. It’s pay and get more possibilities.

Look at it a bit different way.

What if at first we had just a trait pool, and no trait tiering? Then, if they happened to implement the current system, lots of you would cry, right? It’s just a change. But not the change for changes sake. It’s for quicker approach to build switching, balancment, etc.

There are pros and cons, like everywhere.

Just get to play other professions, jesus… Just a learning process. Personally I created necro, cause I was always dieing to it with my main thief. And you know what I learned? Either skilled necro kills you, or you better not bother fighting it.

This event still gets stall pretty often. To be exact, I have spent 3 hours today in Iron Marches and 1-2 hours yesterday, and still couldn’t get into the map where this event is not stall. Thie meta event is crucial to progression, because of the Champion Branded Devourer Queen spawning at the end of the chain. I understand, that traits can be bought with gold+SP too, but this leaves it with no alternatives. Is there a fix planned for this Meta?

As far as a track reward goes, that would make it a solid month of PvP play to get the whole set. I don’t count that as minimal effort.

Two weeks max if player is dedicated to sPvP. I’m usually finishing a reward track in 3-4 days and I play WvW/PvE too.

One other risk related to Halls not being instanced is that with so many guilds in this game and only one map to make guilds on, it’s going to look like a mess. The map would have to be very very massive to cater to every guild to find their ideal building spot.

I vote for keeping Guild Halls instanced HOWEVER, make non-guild members be considered as invite-only guests (having them join your party doesn’t count) so they can visit the hall themselves. Naturally guests will be restricted to certain benefits like access to Guild Banks and certain rooms.

You clearly don’t uderstand what I wrote. Or my text was messed up, then sorry.
I didn’t say everything must be in a single map. Yes, 1 guild per one map. What I mean, not make it an actual instance like a dungeon instance, but as other maps. Only some buildings, etc. should be loaded dynamically. It IS possible, cause dynamic events work that way. Every single upgrade done would be that guilds event done, only difference that it would be hidden from GUI.

Proposal Overview
Promoting a social aspect of the guilds and giving an opportunity for guilds to show off what they have achieved. Integrating guild halls (maps) into Megaserver system.

Goal of Proposal
To make Guild Halls not only the place where guild members can hide from the Tyria, but also hang out from people from the other Guilds.

Proposal Functionality
I’ll not be talking about actual implementation, but rather about some concepts and vision on how Guild Halls should function.

• Guild Halls should not be instances. I imagine it as a whole map (actually, lots of them), which are loaded into the system (if it’s possible without a very long and difficult code overhaul), when a single person from a guild enters that map, and destroyed like a regular map, when there are no players in it.
• People, who are not in a guild would join any of the currently available Guild Halls.
• Make it possible, as in current maps, to change the copy of the map that you are currently in, so that players who are representing their Guild could also be guests in other Guild Halls.
• Guild leaders can make Guild Hall private/public and control if not their guild members can enter it.
• If there are no active Guild Hall maps, and player who is not in any guild tries to enter it, game should say that currently no Guild Halls are available and give a note, that they can try again later or join a Guild (therefore promoting/informing players about Guilds)
• Contents of the Guild Hall should be dynamic, i.e., if Guild has a Workshop upgrade, maybe it’s Guild Hall should have actual workshop, if Guild Bank is upgaded, maybe have a more fancy Bank building, or maybe even a Trove which you can enter explore, with JP in it. And the more upgrades Guild gets, the fancier/more filled Guild Hall becomes.
• Possibility to add cosmetic stuff to Guild Halls through influence/merits/Gem store.

Associated Risks
I can see no risks as a player, but can fully understand that some points of my proposal could be hard to implement because structure of the existing code. Although I hope that little obstacles will not hesitate you from developing it if an idea itself looks appealing to you.

After talking with over 15 guild leaders/officers, finally found a suitable guild. Thanks for the friendly input.

Thanks. Will write you in game.
Other input is appreciated, was chatting with people from 2 guilds, still chatting with one more, but not suitable guild found.

Edit: if I’ll not get any responses in a week or so, I think I’ll just create a guild and try to grow it, with nice, tolerant community. Therefore responses from people with same/similar hopes, or just friendly people, are appreciated too.

Hello all guild leaders/representatives who are reading this post.

For introduction, I would just want to write couple of sentences. I am experienced casual player, playing every game mode/aspect of it, except fractals and team arenas (although would play if I find a team), but I have a big lack of social skills. Therefore, if you don’t think that your guild memebrs are all rational and nice people or that your guild can’t cope with somebody who can be a real pita sometimes, then you can stop reading there and continue browsing other posts.

Also I am in Desolation server and not willing to transfer for reasons explained below. Therefore if your guild is not in Desolation you can also stop reading.

For those who are still reading I can now write more about myself and kind of guild I am looking for.

First of all, my GW2 player side. Mainly I play PvE (Living story, world bosses, dungeons, leveling) and WvW (EotM/Borderlands roaming/zerging), also do some PvP (HJ and (more) Solo queue). I am playing since launch. Playing 2 hours per day on average (although usually more, just with few-day breaks), therefore I can call myself somewhat experienced player, but by no ways a hardcore one. Yes, I don’t like struggling in dungeons, but I am willing to help new players if they want to learn.

Second, my hopes for a guild and some personal info. I am looking for a casual PvX guild, which is regularly doing guild missions. A guild, where I can write in chat that I am looking for dungeon group or 1-2 people to roam in WvW with and receive answer rather quickly. Where people are nice, tolerant and not trying to bully other. Having voice chat is not a mandatory, but if you use now, it should be Mumble. Due to my obsessive nature I am really used to only it. That is the same reason I don’t want to leave Desolation server. Can sound stupid, but I can’t do anything about it. Also, if you use voice chat, it shouldn’t be necessary for everybody to use it. I don’t want to feel restricted from doing some guild activities just because of my social incapability.

Also I have mentioned that sometimes I can be pita. And it comes to every person. Actually, there is only one person, both IRL and virtually, who seemed to somewhat understand me. A few more who can bear me. It can sound that I am an kitten (actually lots of people thinks so and it hurts) and am proud being one, but I have kind of disorder which limits my social capabilities and causes me to act in a strange ways even if the situation seems nothing special to other people. That’s why I want a guild with rational, nice, tolerant people, so I don’t have such a meltdowns in a guild chat. I was recently kicked from one only because of it. I offended some people too much and they said to leaders that they will leave if I stay in a guild.

I don’t have much hope that there are guilds who would welcome me, but I would really appreciate if you would. Playing MMO in a single-player game is really depressing. I am willing to communicate to people. I just have not much idea how to do it.

Thanks in advance, all kind-hearted people.

Some issues here too. Connected on the 4th try, which took almost a minute.

That table is not really accurate. Engi can put a lot more condis than thief.

Made it, got the rewards. Thanks. thread can be locked.

Even after todays patch, I only received 100 tokens to the mail, but no reward chest. Tried relogging, changing maps, entering WvW/OS/EotM, nothing worked. A note from a dev when another fix is coming would be appreciated.

Jessica Boettiger.2563:

Hi all,

We understand the frustration over having to wait to receive your rewards, and we appreciate your patience. The issue was very complex, and we needed to take the appropriate amount of time to sort it all out, and ensure a proper solution. We anticipate being able to provide another update with an ETA for the fix, soon.

Thank you.

Thanks for letting us know

And for some people in this topic – please, stay on topic.

I see lots of people from Desolation didn’t get their chest. And I am from Desolation too. Can it be that less populated servers received chests without any/with little problems, but in bigger servers some data overflowed and was lost?

Well, servers with lower population will have fewer people to post about their problem even if a similar percentage of them are affected.

Well, we don’t know percentage, but if similar amount of players from every server RECEIVED chest, then it’s more than likely it was some kind of data overflow. Even the fact that earliest meta achievers mostly didn’t get a chest points to it.

I see lots of people from Desolation didn’t get their chest. And I am from Desolation too. Can it be that less populated servers received chests without any/with little problems, but in bigger servers some data overflowed and was lost?

I didn’t get my chest too. No transfers. Even more than 10 achis completed.

Meagen.4098:

Just checked, and the portal in the Brisban Wildlands doesn’t have the thorny vines around it, or the trees on top.

Maybe, Mordy’s corruption is spreading.

Actually, this seems to be a really good suggestion. Hope dev’s will see this post and consider possible changes to the system.
+1

Most probably it will be re-tuned achievements, maybe some of them will be exact copies, but new category overall. Also they tend to put in old items in festives. (look at halloween).

It’s only because in creation process, you “bind” these components to your account. Although if you just buy Eternity, you don’t even touch it’s components, so I believe you are left out with only Eternity’s skin itself.

Also you can get them by mining Sprocket Generator in your home instance if you have one.

Hugh Norfolk.2798:

On April 15th all reward tracks will have 8 tomes of knowledge on them. As there are 8 tiers of rewards on each reward track that means that every tier will have 1 tome on it. So it WILL be possible to level the character you are playing in PvP with the tomes you receive from rewards tracks or you can use them on another character on your account because the tomes are account bound.

Hope this helps

WOOHOO!!!

Also you could try mesmer with Greatsword/Scepter+Pistol.

The amount of misunderstanding in OP is astonishing.

What next? Sigil, rune, gem wardrobe, skill wardrobe (unlock skills on one necro, have on them all)?
And after that, we could just play Sims

If you haven’t equiped them yet, they will retain tradable status, as far as I understood.

Legendaries would lose their only purpose, besides looks.
So I’m against this change. (and no, I don’t have a legendary weapon)

Sera.6539:

Today is still the 27th, give it some time. They didn’t say that blog posts on the same day would be posted at the same time.

They did with the Wardrobe and Dye posts, and rune and cir dmg before that.

But ok, I’ll wait until 11:59 PM.

You understand that there’s such a thing like time zones, do you?

Tyragon.2496:

Taco the Sauceless!

Joke aside, nice post. I found his name impossible to pronounce until I heard his name instead of reading it. ^^

You deserved my little Asuran respect, fellow humanoid.

I main thief, play necro, engi and mesmer as alts, and i think this new stat combo will be mmore powerfull on necro condi builds, not on engies.

cinemapaula.8673:

<3 Dreamer – Doesn’t belong in the game… pfft. Like a disco stick DOES? Yet, I also LOVE The Moot. LOL

After i finish map completion and precursor scavenger hunt / craftable precursors are implemented, I’ll definitely go for Dreamer with my thief. One day i saw thief using it, and it looks cool with unicorns bouncing around with #1 and #2.

mikeew.8607:

Is this for level 80 to be more specific I’m looking for level breakdowns I.e 1-10 11-20 etc

For the traits, just go for Deadly Arts/ Critical strikes first. And for the skills, just buy ones i mentioned asap. You should be able to learn all of these really fast, because there is no problem with gaining SPs. Only for elite, grab Thieves Guild first.

Also, grab the trait which puts percent of precision to vitality as soon as you can.

Everything elses order doesnt really matter, tbh.

Mesmer. He just helps you a bit and u do the job with his support, maybe DPS.

Weapons:

S/P: It’s a beast in PvE because of it’s semi-tanking abilities + it has cleave (can hit multiple enemies at once)

SB: good for traveling, tagging multiple mobs in Dynamic Events, also its poison synergizes well with Signet Of malice, if u use it.

Gear:

Zerkers. Only zerkers

Traits: 20/30/0/0/15

Deadly arts: Mug and Combined Training

Critical strikes: Signets of Power, Practiced Tolerance, Executioner (cause its not stealth focused build)

Trickery: Uncatchable

And another 5 points, which you can spend freely, but i prefer Acrobatics

Skills:

Healing: Signet of Malice or Hide in Shadows. U will benefit more from Signets of Power trait with Signet of Malice, though, cause you don’t really need healing often in open world. Just switch to Hide in Shadows when exploring Orr, or in areas you just want to pass by.

Utility: 7:Shadow Refuge/Ambush/Shadowstep, 8: Signet of Shadows, 9: Assassin’s Signet/Infiltrator’s Signet. Change skills in slot 7 as situation requires, and slot 9 is purely yours choice between these two.

Elite: Thieves Guild/Dagger Storm. DS for masses of mobs, TG for doing Skill Challenges, or killing other Vets.

Gameplay tips:

Pop signets when approaching mobs, don’t forget to switch skills when situation demands. Pistol Whip/Steal burst is really good, but try not to waste all of your init. When fighting thougher Vet or Champs, use 5 slot skill often, cause then you can almost tank them.

I hope it helps

I can’t wait for it!!!!!!!!111!!!1!!1111!!!!!!!ONE!!!1!

Thief, if traited properly.

And i saw somebody said thieves cant stack might. Actually they can on signet use. And also on dodge/steal, etc. There even is food which gives might on dodge.

EDIT: also i like using elementalists Fiery Greatsword when stacked with might.

Enjoy your ride to level 80, dude. Don’t rush (if it’s your first character)

facepalm
There are nameplates

Thief+Mesmer=Best dual ever.

I main with thief and my friend has a mesmer and we pretty much everytime wipe kitten for every other roamers and flip camps in less than a minute with no problem.

Son of Svanir…

There should be a slider similar to WvW one rendered player number, so that lower end systems could lower it to not suffe from lagg and higher end users could see all the players around.

8/10 i like your color setup and hair (?)

Heres my thief again, but this time not in stealth.

It is.
