Octovine meta event reward bug

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

After killing the octovine, there is a small chance the map advances into the other cycle of the meta event. What I mean is that the octovine meta pre-maturely ended on tier 2, resulting everyone on the map receiving a tier 2 chest with just 15 tokens, rather than a tier 4 chest with 75 tokens. And as a result, the event credits of killing the octovines go to the other meta cycle, making it already almost tier 2 before it even begins.

It’s quite bad because it’s as if the map failed octovine completely.

Chak Weapon Skins from HoT Story Quest

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

Inspired by this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/hot/Auric-Weapons-From-HoT-Story-Quest

In case you haven’t realized, getting all the chak weapon skin collection gives a lovely mini and a title, and it is very much even harder than the auric weapon collection due to the extreme low drop rate of chak eggs.
You will need 3/5 (one/two handed) to get one weapon from the nuhoch merchant. You have a chance to get 1 chak egg for beating the tangled depths meta which is extrodinarily difficult, and I have yet to hear anyone getting them as drop from crystalline supply caches.
Therefore, it is the best to get weapon skins from story reward. You get a choice of 3 weapons for every character on story quest chapter 13 Buried Insight.

Warrior: sword, axe, mace

If you have information about what choices of weapons other classes have, please leave below.

Chak Eggs

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

Got none after ~50 chests. The drop rate really needs to be increased a lot, especially one weapon costs 3/5 eggs in addition to 500/750 currencies.
At this rate one weapon is going to cost >2000 leyline crystals and hundreds of hours to finish the collection.

I would also like auric ingots to cost less pile of auric dust. Compare to VB’s cost of 500 tokens for a piece of armor, these weapons are just costing way too much and have too much RNG in their acquisition.

1500 citizen rescue tier, how is it possible?

in Battle for Lion’s Arch - Aftermath

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

Sanctum of Rall did 1800 on the first day, i think it was the 2 or 1 try. I think it was SoR, i am from SoR but entered a gate, then i went back in overflow and then a gate again and appear on my main server i think? and we made it to 1700 so yea is possible.

We almost made it to 2k

It’s highly likely that those are due to bugs which never reset counter from previous try.

As time goes, half of the people are just going to hunt for heirlooms, which doesn’t help the total goal at all.
Other than the bug, I have never seen numbers break 1000, with most runs ending at 500-700. Main isn’t doing a lot better than OFs.
So you put all the shiny mini cobalt heads in the ultimate tier reward chest and we can’t even get close to getting them. When can you learn that public maps don’t work together like a guild?

EDIT: did one run with TTS, 75 on TS, we got ~1200, so..

Problem is people already bought them, so they cannot simply remove the feature, otherwise they have to deal with loads of refund requests.
So I’m thinking this will be the new trend, i.e. new gathering tools have bonus of getting new LS crafting materials, from now on. Previous bought item.. um.. you got your benefit already for the past x months now time to move on and buy a new one.

They discontinued Flamekissed armor.
They can do the same for this.

Then people who choose to keep the tool are having advantages that even real money cannot buy…

Wurm scaling problem, bug or not?

in The Origins of Madness

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

So if you play wurm enough times you will have noticed that during the first phase, sometimes the entire zerg takes 30 seconds to only burn 20% of health off of one wurm, while other times its health literally drops 80% within the 30 second window.
They seem to happen randomly, some people say its due to husks being around but not much evidence support it.
If you encounter the slow burn 4 or 5 times in a row the event is pretty much failed, and if you suddenly encounter the mega burn it will get overkilled and you instantly lose.
So anet, is this intended or not?

Great Jungle Wurm Bug

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

To be honest I’m pretty sure you guys are about 0.1% HP short and his burn phase ended (like you have to do another platform charge to be able to dmg him again but of course no time)
In the event bar blank isn’t necessarily zero if you do teq often enough he stays just like that at no HP for a few seconds before dying while players take away his last bit of HP

Why is the worm still up and the event not reset then? at this very moment.

That might a separate bug I’m not sure,

When the burn phase ends, you don’t get “Invulnerable” messages, instead every single shred of damage you do appears as “0”.

That’s what I saw in the video. 0s ?
Plus I saw the wurm do the big orange circle AOE attack, which is generally right before and after the burn phase?
EDIT: 30 seconds of burn phase is what you get roughly .
You started at 0:46 and ended at 0:17.

Sudden AR change: 250 Ectos gone?

in Fractured

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

You don’t understand.
The way it works is only the new slot that comes from infusing backpiece/ring can contain new type of AR infusion(which goes to +10 or more).
If you have a basic backpiece it will only have a normal slot like before which only exisiting infusions work.

infusions in infused rings

in Fractured

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

You only need Artificer skill level 100 to go as high as you can imagine.

Also is it possible to combine one infusion with another one already slotted in?
or can we withdraw say a +5 infusion from a ring, combine it with another +5 infusion and put the result +6 back into ring?

Since you have to kill the boss to get the achievement, it may have something to do with other bugs like not properly awarding W1Z3 tribulation completion achievement that I’ve seen someone complaining about, despite having waited at chest until timer runs out.

Question on the Luck/MF cap

Player can get say 305% magic find just from luck and achievement.

And 20% infusion + 10% guild buff + 15% banner + 50% magic find booster + 30% food too! That’s more than 400%

If there is a change I dont think they will tell us just like last time. It affects small amount of population really unlike karma which is for everyone.
It will be a similar disaster if they simply remove the coin and change that part to T7 mat, which is totally possible…

Achievement based Magic Find

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: henry.1420

henry.1420

It is separately counted. In the live stream by Anet the dev has ~900 achievement point so she has 1% MF from achievement, and 0% from luck. When she clicked the 500 luck item, the MF goes to 6% (5%+1%), 5% because one level is 100 luck point from level 0 to level 5.

if you did not get any precursor from 2500 attempts I think we can say the chance is almost non-existent. You need to roll not only the 1%~2% chance of exotic and also the maybe 0.1%? chance within exotic to get precursor.
Anyways, a good idea to make money if ecto goes to like 38s again. One attempt costs like 35s and gives you ~0.9 ecto back.

It means the T7 mats that you craft that require Ectos to make can only be made once a day.

Which is tradable, however, so you can get as many as you want if you have gold.

[merged] Invasion Canceler not advancing...

My observasion:
If you don’t disconnect at all during the event, stay on the map for the full 45 minutes and participate in each wave, achievement will correctly credit.

There might be flags that say you must be present when each wave is defeated in order for the achievement to progress.

Any specific order?

Right guys let me explain why this is.

Saturday at midnight gmt is Mission reset, if you did a mission before that reset you could earn 2 commedations and if you do one this week you get another 2.

I have 2 myself and run a large guild so trust me on this one.

Its not a daily chest. people misunderstand because they did one saturday day pre reset and one sunday.

its once per week.

So you are saying reset is saturday at 7pm EST?
I will do it again tomorrow afternoon to make sure

Can’t you guys just revert back to what it was before patch? It’s starting to feel like you are trying to fix “fixes” on things that had little to no issue before.

100% agree. Given the many things that are broken because of the patch, totally should revert it.
