Guild Wars 2

I’ve been having this issue for a few days now. I’m from SEA.

I have a Q about that 1 file. While you’re in-game, does the client continue to attempt to download that 1 file while you’re playing? I’m on a capped internet connection. I would greatly appreciate an answer. TY!

Are you having (code=7:11:3:191:101)? I’ve started getting this 2 patches ago. I thought this week’s patch would fix it, but it hasn’t. I keep getting booted out to Character Select. Before that, I had to launch and relaunch my client multiple times before I’m able to actually login and hit PLAY.

True, hmm I guess my point is that the quality of these items. Some of these exotics weapons use Gifts that legendaries also use. And we know Legendaries are are ascended items. Ascended weapons don’t even require gifts to craft.

>Like I said, the “value” behind these MF weapons is not their stats but their skins.

Quote from a friend. He might be right. But is it not an acceptable suggestion to at least consider these MF weapons to be upgradeable to ascended in the future?

Not quite. The Greatsaw skin is a Black Lion Chest item whereas these exotics are crafted. Skins are consumables and need base items. Some MF items are already upgradable now, and the new ones being released you can even upgrade until they get infused, but somehow these exotics remain unupgradeable to ascended quality.

I tried looking for the suggestions subforum, but that section seems to have been scrapped. Moving on

I’m taking about http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mystic_Forge/Equipment . Some (if not most) of these weapons cost more to craft than ascended weapons. Though I understand that their appeal should be in their unique skins, some of the MF equipments have been updated to be upgradeable like the http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Triforge_Pendant . These exotics have varied stats so if you’d rather have another stat set, then you should be ready to craft the ascended weapon with the correct stats then consume a transmutation charge to apply the skin. Else, don’t you guys think these weapons should be upgradeable as well?

Thanks for reading

Hi! I’m posting for my brother. Ticket: 1198823.

His account has been blocked and needed a new serial code to reactivate. I bought him another copy of GW2 when it was 75% off. From what I’ve read, the old method of applying a serial code to an already existing account doesn’t work anymore so I made him submit a ticket. It’s been 7 days, and he hasn’t received a reply other than the automated one. Thank you!

I’d try it of course. But for the moment, I still can’t see why I would choose it over Arcane Thievery or why I would even consider equipping both when there’s other Utility skill combos that would be of more use to me.

My thought process when I read about the change: They encountered bugs with Mimic. They aren’t able to fix these bugs. (I think I remember seeing a video on how a mesmer can use Mimic to create multiple clones of an engineer. Anyone else remember that? Or am I remembering it wrong?) Changing the skill to: ‘copy all boons’ hence ‘mimic’ your enemies! Means they wouldn’t have to check and balance every new projectile attack skill they’ll introduce to the game with Mimic anymore! Because a skill copying boons is already in the game code since release. /endnonsense

After the recent patch, I am now back to being able to use my RMB to turn the camera. Only for a few seconds though, and I can’t make it happen all the time. About 1 out of 3 tries I will be able to move the camera.

Ashley Segovia.8276:

Hey there,

Sounds like you’ve tried just about everything. I’d advise creating a support ticket so we can give you some one-on-one help.

https://help.guildwars2.com/anonymous_requests/new

Thanks! I’ll try that.

My bro bought a mouse today, so I’ll test using that as soon as I can. Like I said, the RMB button works. I use hold+RMB on my other games and it performs its function as intended. I can also use other right click commands in GW2 just not to turn the camera while moving/in-combat.

I am NOT saying it is a generic issue, but rather pointing out when this bug started happening for me. I felt it was important to point out since I’ve been playing before the game even launched without encountering this bug. I also did not install hardware/software prior to the patch that could have affected my gaming experience.

That said, I’ll try to play GW2 using my mouse on my brother’s laptop and if I trigger the bug then it’s probably my G600 that has an issue with GW2.

If you’re looking for thousands of posts like this maybe you should check out the thread I linked above. It’s a Merged Thread about this issue that started a year ago, with a couple of recent posts that also mentions the LS S2 patch.

I’ve been playing GW2 since Early Access and I’ve never had this bug before. I’ve been using a Logitech G600 to play the game for around 2 years now. I’ve been playing almost every day until a few weeks before the WvW S2 ended. Now, I just login a few hours a week. I noticed this bug since last week’s patch.

A few days ago, holding the RMB would work as intended. However, after a few seconds it will stop responding and I would have to let go of the button and hold it down again to control the camera. Today when I logged in, I can’t use the RMB to turn the camera at all.

I am able to right click on my inventory, and right click on party member portraits to make the menu show. So I am quite sure the RMB works in-game for everything else other than turning the camera.

A few info:

I’m running the game as Administrator and using “/clientport 80”. Tried disabling “Run as Administrator” and without the command line, didn’t help.

I also tried running Logitech Gaming Software on compatibility mode for Win7. Didn’t fix the bug.

After finding out about the bug, I installed the latest driver from http://www.logitech.com/en-us/support/gaming-software?section=downloads&osid=14&bit=64. Didn’t help.

I’ve also tried resetting everything to default. Controls, Sound, and even the Video settings. Also didn’t fix the bug.

Tried running the game in Fullscreen, Windowed and Windowed Fullscreen. Didn’t help.

I tried this fix: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/Mouse-losing-focus-right-click-to-turn-not-working-Merged/4196851 and this one: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/Mouse-losing-focus-right-click-to-turn-not-working-Merged/3384674. These fixes didn’t work for me either.

Update:

I play GW2 on my laptop. I tried unplugging my mouse and using my touchpad. Holding the RMB does allow me to move my camera. I still doubt this means my RMB is borked though, since I am able to use it to perform other right click functions within the game.

I tried uninstalling the software. Rebooting. Used all 3 USB ports on my laptop. Didn’t work.

Reinstalled the program. Rebooted. Even tried changing maps and switching to another character. Didn’t work.

TL;DR
RMB doesn’t turn the camera. Bug showed up after LS S2. Would like to play regularly again, but this bug is making it difficult for me.

Too early for me! Hope I can join in on the next one.

I suppose I can send in a ticket now that we know when the rewards will be available. My Achievement tab says 4th place. I checked with the Battle Historian and he says that I am associated with the correct server and that the server has placed 2nd. I hope it gets sorted out before the patch goes live.

It already solved..the post says that you will get a new chest according to what the historian is saying. that wy you did not have to send a ticket…Your question is already answered

It says we talk to the Battle Historian “to get an updated tournament chest that has the correct rewards and number of tickets for your placement”. You’re assuming that it will follow what the Battle Historian is saying and not what is displayed on the account’s Achievements Tab.

If you’re correct then I have nothing to worry about. But how about those players who are currently associated with the wrong world? Or have it the other way around? Achievements Tab is saying they got the right place, but the Battle Historian is saying they’re associated with a different server?

It says you’re going to get the correct rewards for your placement. I hope that also means that they will fix it so that players will be placed correctly as well. I know that’s a little technical, but sillier bugs have existed on GW2.

Also a dev already said that if players want to make a ticket they can. And that wasn’t even about this particular issue, but the issue about players not receiving the rewards after the Tournament.

I sent in a ticket because my Achievements Tab is displaying “4th Place” when the Battle Historian is telling me that I am associated with the correct world and that world has placed 2nd for WvW Spring 2014 Tournament. I sent a ticket and the GM sent me a canned response. It would be nice if Support actually read the ticket content instead of assuming it’s another QQ about rewards not being given out.

Tarnished Coast server. Been on this server since Early Access. Never transferred. Still don’t have my reward. Is Customer Support still not handling tickets for this?

Khenzy.9348:

I know I’m going to get trash talked by other Mesmer players but… Osicat, can you please stop promoting PU builds or similar like these? Where perma protection, near perma regen, heavy stealth, AI (and other stuff I wont even mention, you know you class already) just outclass everything you encounter? Making these junk builds popular is definetly not good for the game as a whole.

Flame away fellas.

“can you please stop promoting…”
“junk builds”

Well, now! If you haven’t yet, Osicat has a pinned build thread that has non-PU based builds. Oh, if you have non-“junk” builds you would like to share with the Mesmer community you’re welcome to do so. Anytime now…

Many thanks for the bug fix ANet! If only they’re able to fix our other bugs just as fast!

We posted a bug thread for it here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Mesmer-s-clones-doesn-t-wear-the-outfit-1/

The new UI is a big part of this feature patch. They claimed to have worked on it for a long time. They also claim to QA the patches extensively before launch. So I doubt the personality info being removed from the Hero tab is a bug.

Maybe it’s one of the things that they thought wouldn’t be missed. Although it’s just for text flair it’s still sad that they thought we don’t deserve to know why they removed it.

Hi! I would like to join as a student. I’ll be bringing along friends if that’s okay. They have guild max already so they can’t ask for invites anymore.

IGN: nyaonyao.8402

I’ve added my screenshot to that thread. We should test if common town clothes apply to illusions too.

For reference, Infinite Watchknight Tonic works on phantasms and clones.

Have you reported this yet?

I tried it with the Selfless Potion and it also does not work. The illusions aren’t wearing the halo. However, with Infinite Watchknight Tonic is working. The only time your illusions and clones appear with your armor is when they are dead and laying on the ground. It seems that outfits not being applied to phantasms and clones is a bug.

I salvaged the 20 pieces of exotic armor I used to get to 500 using BL kit and I got no insignias. It’s far from being a good sample size though.

Aha! Thank you! I was looking at the Crafting portion. This is under Changes to Rewards. Many thanks!

Whoops! Made a thread about this as well. I checked the Ascended Weapon crafting patch notes and it wasn’t mentioned in there as well. I can’t remember where I read the info about weapons dropping inscriptions.

When Ascended Weapon crafting was made available last 03 September 2013, salvaging certain weapons (e.g. dire/shaman) had a chance of dropping inscriptions. Does the Wintersday patch and the Ascended Armor crafting make insignias salvageable from some certain armors now too?

I have the transcriber on one toon. I’ve only attempted to do interact with the obelisks on that one character. I’ve double checked the sites and I still have 23/24. Please just make the required number lower than the available obelisks like someone already suggested. Like 20/24 maybe?

The Toxic Offshoot at Caledon Forest doesn’t get zerg rushed because players are camping the Witch so when I headed there I found regular mobs that had the debuff. Killing them however doesn’t go towards the achievement. The toolip says “Find and kill creatures throughout the world who have been corrupted by spores.”. No mention of vet/champs. Thanks for the dev confirmation but this kind of information should be included in tooltips for clarity.

I have a Light TA armor set on my Human Mesmer and after the Items patch the glow is gone. I recall the TA armor glow bugging out like this in the past. I tried re-equipping and re-dying the set but I still don’t see the glow.

http://i.imgur.com/DDa3IKt.jpg

The glow was most noticeable from the back. The part of the shoulder armor that goes on the back of the neck glowed. The ‘dots’ on the chest piece that goes down the arms and the lining on the back used to glow as well. The front part of the skirt also had some parts that glowed.

How about AFK timer on turrets? Or ‘build’ the turrets only when the event is up? I’ve seen a few encounters now where more than 1 turret is disabled because AFKers.

What do you think the problem at hand is? That you bought 2 of the same Ascended Rings on the same night without understanding what Unique meant? Or that buying a Unique item doesn’t give you a warning? It should be noted that not all Soulbound on Use and Account Bound items don’t have warnings when they’re bought either. Only ‘expensive’ items do.

If the latter is the problem then you should consider starting a thread over at the Suggestions subforum and propose that GW2 should give a warning when buying uniques and not just expensive items.

Item descriptions are there to be read. AFAIK there has been no reported bug where a unique item doesn’t have “Unique” in its description. Players could easily type /wiki unique in-game would direct you to http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Unique.

I haven’t checked in WvW but in PvE there is no WvW tab. Shouldn’t it made available in PvE as well? Since we can see PvP tab in PvP why not WvW?

Newsflash: ALT+F4 when you’re downed in WvW doesn’t save you from a stomp. LOL The enemy gets the kill and a loot bag and you get damage on your gear. I suppose what hasn’t been confirmed is if ALT+F4 doesn’t give the enemy server the points when you aren’t stomped but IMO taking PPT too seriously. It’s not worth it.

false, at least as of yesterday. had downed people alt+F4ing on me, and not getting any exp, WXP, loot, or points.

If that’s case then it’s a bug. It’s not ‘false’ because that is how it’s supposed to be.

skcamow.3527:

Ugh, you guys are right, daze isn’t a condition, it’s a control effect like stun and can only be cleared via a stun break or waiting. These are the effects which fall under that category:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Control_effect

Man, too early. I believe everything else I said is correct though.

Hmm, then does daze have any advantage over stun? When the player also has torment maybe? You know when they panic and don’t use a stun breaker and run away instead? XD

GuardianOMS.8067:

Remember guys, the only way to show disapproval is by not playing the game. Dev has stated they will not listen to “noise” on the forum because we are a minority.

“If we see continuing declines in number of people actually playing, then we clearly have a problem.” said he.

This is disappointing to say the least. It’s disappointing that a Dev would would say this (if he did say it). Decline in playing numbers? Did he even give a thought about players who come in WvW to do map completion? Or those who come into WvW to use the merchant, Black Lion Trader or the crafting stations? Ah! But nevermind me! I am only part of a minor vocal community. I’m sure these people have statistics that will prove that the number of players who come to WvW for those reasons are insignificant because majority of the WvW population are actually ‘hardcore’ WvWers and the majority of those players don’t even post in this forum.

How can WvW see a ‘significant’ decline in playing numbers if there are these other reasons why a player would go into WvW? How can they even tell if the decline is tied to a certain ‘WvW’ mechanic?

I used Ether Feast until a few weeks after I hit 80 then I started using Mirror. Never equipped it until then. I am trying to try out the Mantra heal.

Anyway, you should report it as a bug! (Don’t have much confidence that this thread will get noticed by people who can actually fix it if it’s in this subforum.)

Knote.2904:

Daze is essentially just a silence/disarm.

Daze = Silence

Simplest explanation for Daze! Thank you!
—-

It’s like this, if you Daze your opponent they can still move around and run away from you. If you want them Disabled you should use Stun. Because if a player is stunned they are prevented from all movement and actions and can only use Stun Breakers.

I think Alissah is right you can’t condition cleanse daze since it’s not a condition but a control effect. So in a way if your enemy has nowhere to escape it might be better to daze them because they would have to wait it out! (This is of course only true if condition cleanse doesn’t work on dazed players.)

Lobo Dela Noche.5127:

I’m not sure why they didn’t just give the buffs to the npcs and not players. It makes upgrading the camps/towers actually useful. Which makes defending and upgrading points not so pointless.

but since it is the way it is, new buff is BS and only a person with an IQ of 1 would think otherwise. glaringly obvious this should not have ever gone live

I’d like to see this happen actually. I would rather the Bloodlust be made into an NPC only buff. Or how about additional buffs when all 3 stacks are gained by a server? Such as +movement speed for yaks or faster Supply/Tower/Keep/SMC upgrade. Buffs that actually benefit the WvW meta not stat boosts for the players.

tuxedo.8406:

Devon Carver doesn’t care about what people in the forum say, as they’re an extreme minority in his opinion, so therefore, a way to see people reacting doesn’t exist, so he does whatever he wants.

Only way to see that a patch has a “negative effect” is that he sees numbers of players dropping..

Players will keep coming in WvW because it’s part of the map completion! How will ANet determine if the decline in WvW participation (if there is any) is due to a certain mechanic or not?

Chat Sounds

Currently the chat sounds work counterintuitively here in GW2. You hear the ding when you send a whisper when it should be the other way around!

Players can create separate chat windows and turn on “Flash on unread messages” however this is only a visual cue. It would also help if other windows would remember the last read line and start from there when you switch back to it.

Phloww.1048:

This bouncing mechanic between enemy and ally is getting more annoying. It not only affects illusions, turrets, and critters, but it also affects onto spirit weapons, Ranger spirits, minions, and elementals. Basically, any object that is targetable ally is now affected by the bounce and it causes these bouncing skills to not be useful most of the time.

I’m still waiting for Anet to fix many of the bugs that are in Mesmer skills and traits. (i.e. – phantasm berserker, illusionary leap, Temporal Curtain swiftness stack with others, etc.).

Checked the wiki http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bounce. So are all bouncing attacks bugged now? If so, we should ask the OP to change the title of the thread. If they see that it doesn’t affect just the Mesmer class maybe then it might get the attention it deserves. (I’m actually surprised it hasn’t been moved to the Mesmer subforum where most of our bug threads end up anyway, where they probably won’t get seen by the right people.)

I’ve had to resort to placing personal waypoints in the minimap and zooming the minimap all the way in. The range I would go is from my personal waypoint to the center of the minimap.

+1 for range and timer!

I’ve taken a few screenshots. Not the best but the animation bug can be seen.

Hmm, a bit obvious question but, will I be able to get the missing achievements from World 1 when Moto comes back with World 2?

Yes.

Another obvious Q:
So it’s possible to get the title: Distinction in Applied Jumping when the SAB returns then?

I need 2 more World 1-3 achievements but I don’t know if I’ll be able to get it before the patch. T___T
