Guild Wars 2

you Might Want to check the “transactions” tab of the TP. If it’s there, what happened is you placed a “Buy Order” instead of filling a “Sell Order”

first, https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/players is the place to go when asking these sorts of questions
second, I believe It means % of the fight to survive bar

Excellent

MORE BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!

also, all you need is accsess the inside, not control of the place. I finished my map complete by following an enemy zerg into the tower

OP, The problem with that assessment is that why can’t they use the living story to put that content into the game?

On a similar note, the only temp thing in this patch is (I believe) a single Meta-achievement

don’t have time to read whole thread, sooooooooo

OP, It wasn’t advertised because it wasn’t planned imo, and the reason the plans changed was because of massive player outcry about a year or so ago

I would just like to ask a question here.

can you name an MMO that doesn’t rely on time gating?

Time Gating exists because there is a type of player, commonly called a “content locust”, who will burn though content at the fastest possible speed and then call (loudly) for more.

This isn’t necessarily a defense of a-net, more-so an explanation as t why I think Time Gating was Implemented.

and you are posting this because? (not trying to be rude here, just wondering what it is you want to discus)

bullet point seven.

this question has been asked before, and the answer is no

the reason they have not added capes is charr and the horrible clipping issues they create. this means that it is just not worth the effort to add capes. i suspect fixing that is a back-burner/pet project of some of the staff members there, but I doubt it will be seen anytime soon.

you don’t gain exp, you gain honor. it’s a seperate system that ranks you up and alows you to equip better looking gear.

unlikly

/15chars

there is a buyback system. check in there

I would like to point out that moa racing is stated to be a permanent part of the game.

electriccouch.2856:

In the Charr story quest “Down the Hatch”, you and Tybalt disguise as pirates to sneak through a pirate camp to rescue Demmi Beetlestone, the daughter of Minster Caudecus, who is being held captive. When you rescue her, she says, “Aren’t you a little sober to be a pirate?”

I can’t help but think that’s a reference to the scene from Star Wars where Luke and Han are disguised as Storm Troopers on the Death Star, and when they rescue Leia, she says, “Aren’t you a little short for a Storm Trooper?”.

In addition, after rescuing her, she helps you fight. Also makes me think of Leia taking the gun from Han and shooting the crap out of the Storm Troopers in the hallway.

that’s actually part of the OoW quest chain (did the same quest as an asura)

on topic: isn’t the skritt burglar a reference to similar creatures in diablo?

how are you sure that’s it’s actually been stealth nerfed, as opposed to say, bugged out?

Say “NO!” to Dragon Bash! My Canthan ancestors pray to the Celestials on this day, so shall we Canthans today!

HECKLE HECKLE RABBLE RABBLE HECKLE

I wholeheartedly agree with you! Shall we organize a protest event coinciding with the shameful, greedy Captain’s Council’s tour on the finale?

I somehow suspect something is going to crash that particular party already.

simple: RNG makes more money. Areanet produced this wonderful MMO to make money. RNG boxes are how they monetize it.

SO, I was looking at the new dragon bash information, and it looked interesting. however, I noticed that there was no reference to the living story. that sseemed odd to me, so I went on an archive binge, and I found this

How does helping Kiel tie in to the next multi-month story arc? That’s a secret that won’t be entirely revealed until June, but rest assured that it does all tie together. What you do with and for Kiel will matter in the coming months, and along the way Team Spring Break is determined to keep things lively. It’s full speed ahead on Southsun Cove, baby, and you’re invited.

Unless the last step of last stand points to something, we haven’t had that reveal.

also note that they have only revealed a week’s worth of activities, when the event is scheduled to go for a month.

coincidence? I think NOT!

someone dislikes a change. what a surprise. i am so totaly schocked.

srsly though, don’t get hung up because you are not winning, keep trying!

it’s not THAT hard. I couldn’t finish either the wintersday or halloween JP, and I managed to do it in a couple of hours (hint, once you are past the gysers, be very careful)

I would LOVE to have some rocket boots!

I’ve set myself the goal of having a full collections tab w/o using the BLTP. so mostly I hang out in lowbie areas doin my daily

If it did affect chests, then the correct thing to do would be to only open a chest with max MF. if your armor isn’t max MF, that means that you should be carring a set of MF armor with you at all times.

does this answer your question?

Ursan.7846:

Vote with your wallet.

exactaly. That’s more or less what I just said.

It’s highly profitable. a-net is a corporation. this was expected. RNG boxes will continue, despite the forum complaints, until it is no longer more profitable to sell RNG boxes.

someone (maybe you?) bought up all the supply.

Iehova.9518:

Jaall.3420:

Funnily enough Lehova is proving our point that gear inspect is a bad thing because it’s just making it quite clear the attitude that people have and how much it would effect the casual player.

1. My name begins with an ‘i’.
2. Casual players do not care if they’re being inspected or not. Bads, MF leeches, 5-signet/healing shout warriors, condition damage guardians and the rest of people who do not know their classes and expect being piggybacked do.
3. It’s spelled “affect”.
4. There is nothing inherently wrong with the ability to see what other players are wearing. You do not have to party with elitist jerks, they already have static groups to steamroll all the content.

1. “I” “l” one is lowercase L, one is uppercase i. which is which.
2. I’m causal, and I care
3. no argument, your grammar is gooder.
4. While true, adding gives elitist jerks incentives to roll with pugs, because they can control said Pugs gear. this leads to a worsened environment for puggers (like me)

Meluna.1764:

Second: The Sylvari are not a hivemind. The dream is more a subconcious connection that they have no control over. They are not in constant contact. Also the Pale Tree has thousands of children now, she can not converse with all of them the whole time. It has been stated that atm she mostly speaks only to the firstborn and they kind of govern the Sylvari. The player characters constantly bothering her might also add to distraction. =P Plus: imagine how distracting it must be to hear Trahearne whine 24/7 XD

They do have a certain degree of control over it if they can severe it as they wish (the 2 groups I mentioned). I’m just wondering in what relationship they are now, since Canach’s not a villain, but not really a hero either, and if he actually communes with her in some way, sometimes, since I noticed a lot of Sylvari turn to her as aid.

only the soundless sever themselves from the dream.the nightmare court are actually trying to change the dream, so they won’t sever it themselves, and I don’t think the pale tree can sever a sylvaries connection to the dream.

anyway I think that canach is a well-intentioned extremist, so he thinks h is doing what’s right.

you seem like you only have a single character. have you thought about trying alts? if you don’t want to repeat content, there’s always crafting, and then you can do personal story to your hearts content.

/facepalm

your sample size is to small to be statistically relevant.

I’m sorry you’re have a run of bad luck, but RNG is RNG

ofc theres a system to stop people killing low level people , in every pvp system theres a penalty for people who kills low people or random guys… theres no point for getting gear. and Kitanas you didnt explain me why this dont work.

there is no reason it doesn’t work, but the consensus of the forums is that we don’t want it in our game

Who are you to speak for the entirety of the forum? even if the entire forum were against the idea, those who frequent it make up only a small percentage of the gw2 population. Please don’t be so arrogant as to assume that your views constitute the majority. I for one would love to see this sort of system implemented.

does the president of the united states speak for all americans? I do not claim to speak for the whole forum, just reporting that the majoraty of forum poster (who do not constitute a majority of GW2 players) seems to be against adding dueling.

the answer is always crafting

Peetee.9406:

Remove orange swords, white swords, and the supervisor buff. Goodbye forced zerging!

the supervisor buff was imlemented to stop people from flipping a camp back and forth for profit. as your other suggestions, would you be willing to be a scout, hanging out just in case someone was trying to ninja a camp/tower?

DoomMagick.5963:

This is quite annoying as most of you guys are just reading the title of “Night Capping” and raving what you did the 1st time it came up without even reading what I have had to say it’s fairly obvious when the one guy who took time to write a paragraph’s first 4 words prove he read nothing I wrote.

What I have done here is merely put a cap to the amount of points ANY(sorry all you people who feel your being targeted, but this would effect EVERYONE, so there goes the whole you’re against this or that time slot crying,which sadly is all that has happened so far.) time slot can achieve ahead of the others to keep the game closer. The limit would be decided by ANET via their numbers they collect whilst giving server rankings.

Been here since beta; just finally thought I would give my theory a go on the forums.

part of the issue is that your problem has nothing to do with night-capping. its really the large point discrepancies that build up when teams are mus-matched. but is limiting he score really helping? sure, you have closer point scores, but that also makes it harder for the matchmaking to sort them into their rightful place.

yeah, I beat it. ’course, im also a engy, jump shot ftw.

sigh, this thread again.

look, a thread like this pops up every month or so, and the general consensus of the forums is that no, we do not want dueling in this game. maybe if it was in an area somewhere, but not out in the open world

Strejda Tom.6108:

I cant find anything about one month there.

May represents a transition—the Flame & Frost arc is now complete, and our plan calls for content to build on what came before while also kicking things off in a new direction.

secret of southsun is a one month “transitional” event.

Cherrylin.5869:

Thanks! I’m pretty far with FaF now, I’d say, (at very least in the achievements I only need to do Lost and Found and Secret Contact now, (save for the Alliance Breaker and Rallying Flame ones..))
I can’t really find those dirt/snow spots though, some people said they’re still there. Hmm.. :s

Pretty confused about that ‘Super Adventure Box’ thing.. What was that all about?

it was anet’s April fool’s joke. basically it was a jumping puzzle which had a lot of homages to classic 8-bit games. it’s gone for now but will probably be back

Elbegast.6970:

panzer.6034:

It gets grating when people keep staying “steampunk” over and over and over to describe something it doesn’t apply to. Nothing is steampowered and there is no Victorian aesthetic to the game. There is precisely zero “steampunk” in GW2.

That said, generic dragons + elves fantasy has been done to death. Yeah, its popular but its tired and developers shouldn’t be afraid to step up and take things in a different direction.. I’m glad GW2 is franchise that isn’t afraid to go against the regurgitated tropes and cliches of magic/Tolkein/elves/bland.

I guess you missed the smokestacks on the Charr Siege Cycles at the Black Citadel. It looks like they were taken straight off a Mississippi River Steamboat. Not to mention the ‘cow catcher’ present on many mobile Charr constructs.

Technology (lasers, tanks, teleport pads, guns, etc.) just kill the immersion for me. I want a return to the “bland” elves/magic/swords D&D cliche. This game is supposed to be a fantasy mmo; not science fiction.

word of god is that char tech is more clock-punk then steam-punk.

also, I would like for you to produce a artical/soucrce from anet that medieval stasis is supposed to be true, otherwise its not what it’s supposed to be, but what you want.

Magic Find is a big issue, and ANet is looking for a way to change magic find :https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Magic-Find-What-I-don-t-like/first they also want to reward people for total achievements points. maybe award MF % based off of total achievment points? like, say 1%MF per 100 AP.

are there too many currencies? yes. is this inevitable? also yes. the new currencies are added to reward people doing new activities. that means that every new content will have new currencies.

…
Feel free to make any suggestions you want, but don’t expect an answer.

You are obviously right and based on personal experience from my place of work, I find that absolutely appalling.

Our company recieves 4-5 suggestions from clients every day and the company policy is that all employees must act on any suggestion they recieve. We are required to rate and/or forward any suggestions to relevant persons/dept.
At the most basic level all client suggestions will be acknowledged and the client is thanked for showing interest.
We have several product improvements and services that can be directly linked to suggestions from our customers and their involvement is considered a valuable asset to the company.

I guess the computer gaming industry is still very young as client suggestions defaults to being considered a liability.

you do relize that anet has a slightly higher flow of feedback then your company, and that 90% of said feedback isn’t very good, right?

about the orders being involved: they can’t necessarily have the orders involved because not everyone is in an order in their personal story yet. It ties in to what the dev actually said, which is that tying personal story characters into living story is complicated because not everyone is at the same place in their personal story. imagine the the orders were involved, and the OoW put Tybalt as their point man. do you see the issue with that?

Aura.9530:

I think the fact of no sense of time in this story is what’s actually bothering me; or lack of explanation of Braham. In my head, I’m thinking of it as: Eir just had Braham, while she was recovering from labor her and Borje talk it over and he takes Braham then and there. If there was some explanation of how this happened, it would help.

As I stated earlier; we don’t know how the events of the personal story and the living story tie in together, because of the lack of dates. Which mentally makes me think the living story happened AFTER Zhaitan; however, because we have no real impact on the world (you can help and entire zone and it would be in peril 20mins later from the same menace), it’s hard to say.

I actually think that it’s not any time along the personal story. one of the reasons that they are introducing new characters for living story is to avoid placing the living story anywhere along your personal story timeline.

it’s just you. RNG stands for random number generation

Tiger Ashante.1792:

How is a person who’s never done this b4 supposed to actually do it?

I’d probably start by reading the wiki entry and then maybe some other walkthroughs.

Then I’d organize a party and make sure everyone understands the key mechanics to each encounter, and plan the party build around that.

who wrote the wiki? unless it’s the game developers, then someone had to have figured out the boss without guides to help them. and if they can do it, you can to.
