That would be very nice. But I doubt they’ll do it, simply for the fact that it would make an easy work around for their silly “1 Pristine Relic a day from each tier” rule.
Well they could easily add another time-gated recipe for example in Jeweler profession.
Two of the Belcher’s Bluff achievements listed under “Activities” require you to have beaten all 6 NPCs.
Is there a problem with NPC beating? Smart usage of signature moves will help alot and regen food is totally unnecessary. Correct unlock order will also help – like beating Graster Beakerbane after Maddie with Woo etc.
For the achievement you only need play games against other players, not necessarily win them. So fix for this is not top priority I think.. Especially assuming that no one will play that game after achievement unlock considering 100g for permanent bluff match starter item.
I thinks there should be option to hide completed achievements or move them to the bottom of the list by default. New interface is less compact (you can see less achievements on screen at once and need more scrolling) so every time I want to see unfinished achievements I need to scroll through completed records, and that is just annoying.
Hall of Monuments have no way of being obtained unless you pay money for them and im very surprised ANet would resort to selling AP for people who wish to remain competitive on the highscores.
So you don’t want to buy GW1 and grind for additional achievements. That’s understandable.
But someone more determined will buy and will grind to win in competition. Don’t like it? Then you not deserve your SoR first place on nolife achievements.
how do you expect new players to be AP competitive ? How about the players who will buy the game in 2 years ?? when you are late to the party you are late …..thank you.
New players never catch up for current active top rank players and these 500 AP are totally irrelevant unless people from the tops suddenly stop playing.
You want to catch up with someone who grinded 10 months of dailies and blaming HoM AP’s for inevitable failure?
Arenanet, can you please fix this? I LOVE Snowball Mayhem and I’d like to be able to play it on my necro. Thanks!
After last patch do you really believe that ArenaNet cares about Necromancer class? They didnt even show up in class subforum anymore to read feedback or petition about Reanimator removal.
Another bug in the loooong list of unfixed necro bugs? Oh well.. we all used to this already.
ps: this skill disabled for me too, but I just ignored it completely with my asura necromancer. Why? Because you can choose Scout and faceroll achievement/top place match results with auto-attack, cloak and right timing.
Are you adding an entire underwater map or something? God, I am tired of wasting effort on even supporting you by playing.
They probably can do this, maybe this will be the Unending Ocean .
Anyway underwater combat is just awful, not only for Necro and skill fixes wont help to resolve major issues with underwater.
It’s just fascinating experience when WHOLE sunken ship in Straits of Devastation aggroes on you trough walls with one AoE from trident. But hey, now Feast recharges faster and you can choose between slow auto-atacking and fast death from aoe fullaggro..
Let’s not just rush here with conclusions. I’m sure that we will see sometimes in the future good old-fashioned GW1 metagame changer: “We felt that we have buffed Warriors, Mesmers and Thieves way too much, and now it’s time to nerf them to the oblivion. Suck it up!”
After reading those notes I just glad that I have frozen my necro in previous update and switched to common meta (all-around-shout-warrior).
Instead of annoying my party members with stupid useless Jagged Horror (we all know those bugged loud sounds) and questionable damage/support abilities, now I just dps and heal and playing for pleasure.
It looks like balancing dude recalled about Necro in few days before patch “Oh I need to change something irrelevant slightly, just to fill up notes. No one uses stupid water combat anyway, so I’ll do that and throw them a bone. Next time they will think twice before making those embarrassing 300 class bugs compilations!”.
Meh.. How we should hope to get some real rebalancing on Necro if Anet simply ignored most popular theme about Reanimator change/removal and just spit that duration increase in your faces?
I got bored with Sage and Whispers sets and switched to Heritage + SF helmet for my asura.
Deep Pine as main color gives nice dirty bloodstained texture.
hey Nug/GF aren’t you bored every evening to do the same kitten thing on VS Bl?
stacking 50+ people on the same spot and downing reinforced doors with 1 auto attack only in 15 minutes per door?
taking garrison and the two towers in 1.5 hours like this when France is eating is how you get your fun during your primetime?
why are you even playing this game?
Sorry but we have special feelings for Vizunah Square Borderlands. Next time you can choose other BL to die peacefully while you eating on WvWvW map.
It’s surprising to see such whine and complains from VS player. If you see big enemy force trying to degrade your T3 tower – capture other defenseless object. That’s what VS always do, but you must be new here.
1. Go to the https://register.guildwars2.com/
2. Notice link “How do I apply a serial code to an already existing account?” there.
3. Click on it. You will open relevant support page with explaining video.
I hope this will help
ps: I’m pretty sure that NCsoft automated support system responded to your ticket with relevant link in email already (based on keywords in your ticket). Maybe you missed it?
you killed all the attackers and they probably didn’t see you
We also have huge problems in the last few days, so usually we have to fully rely on commanders voice commands. This is how I played two days ago (notice dots on the minimap):
Now we should do one last thing to ruin RUIN even more.
Lets just transfer to Vizunah Square, beat the kittens out of “stealth ruins on BT” and wait for another cool story from Archaos:
“Ruin has been in the process of moving to Vizunah Square since the start of this week’s match up.
There have been Ruin members on Vizunah Square in contact with most of the major guilds there for some time. Most of these members have been ordered not to have Ruin tags represented while we were engaged in transfers.
We love Vizunah! <3"
Lets hope Elona Reach will consume some organized 3W guilds from DE community and return to T1. At least then we will have some interesting sieges and golem rushes
Clocktower is designed according to the Mad King’s requirements for player torturing and suffering. This puzzle is the best part of all Halloween event and it’s difficult is appropriate. None other puzzle in the game gave me similar sense of achievement.
I want everything for free and right away!
Exotics and Rares drop.
Rare skins drop.
Gem Store boosters drop.
Dye Packs.
You guys need garunteed rocketboots or what?
I want my green chain legs for Necromancer!
I want my 25 Black lion Logging Axes
I want my 10 slot bag
I want my 50 candy corns
I want to spent 30 minutes soloing for this drop, because I can’t enter dungeon with my party.
Congrats to guys who farmed their exotics from labyrinth yesterday. At least you got something and got away with it.
ps: I have enjoyed battle with Mad King and my CoD-like last hit. But loot from the chest is horrible.
but so far Desolation has proven to be a powerful force and without the continued cooperation of it’s many guilds, these victories would not be achieved.
I haven’t seen evidence of a “stronger” prime time. Far Shiverpeaks struggled to stay ahead of Kodash over the weekend in point gain and was completely wiped out earlier every day we have fought you.
Currently Far Shiverpeaks castle doors has been easily crushed within 2 days of fighting at nights.
FYP
Dont forget to invite Desolation population to join your “project” on another next server when you fail to effectively fight against french servers with current weak EU prime-time Desolation mass.
We experienced exactly the same nightcapping in D1, and we wont stop fighting because of this. If you used to stop fighting and transfer to the another server just because someone managed to gain 20k lead in PVE at night, then your “project” doesn’t have much value in long-term alliance perspective. Inviting possible gloryhunters from FS to Desolation wont help you increase quality of primetime pug either way.
I have yet to understand why a huge guild would join a eu server only to cap everything and then sit around for hours doing nothing. If they really were looking for a challenge, there ist no point in choosing a eu server, maybe in t1 you will have more than 10 enemys to deal with.
If they manage to return to D1 [RUIN] will get their night fun with Arborstone night crew and probably Vizunah (if VS wont break from demoralizing factor until then). But while they will have all fun at nights (but without +700 ticks this time), EU population of Desolation will suffer and will lose points, because honestly it’s just the same unorganized mess that we have seen on previous match-ups.
Well theres already enough gold sinks in the game which includes TP listing fees, tax, travel, armor repair and respawning after death. 40s just seems a bit too expensive for someone who wants to max all 8 profs on one character such as myself.
There is never enough gold sinks. Players always generate more gold than they destroy. Even in game with more complex economic (EVE) there isn’t enough sinks and devs always searching for solutions to increase value of isk.
Also there is no reason to train all profs on one toon. You still can get Master Crafter title because it doesn’t matters where you training profession – title progress is account wide.
Ofc you can say “I WANT ONE toon and I don’t care!”. Fair enough, but Anet want your 40s also. You should pay if you too lazy and arrogant to switch characters.
Whole thread is good example how you give players an inch and they will take a mile.
“Oh cool we dont need to lose all crafting progress like in WoW”.. month later.. “It’s not enough, we want this all for free!”
My bet this might drop from Risen Priestess of Lyssa chest in Malchor’s Leap. Cathedral of Eternal Radiance where she spawning is a huge ossuary (final resting place of Lyssa followers in Orr). In personal story mission it is also guarded with gargoyle guardians.
I dont thinks this will help them anyway. Yesterday we farmed badges defended Cliffside on Kodash BL for 3 hours with destroyed wall (why fix it if brainless badges coming into your trap non-stop?) and 0 supplies. Killed wave after wave, until we got bored.
Please.. Why do we have to stoop this low? Only the scrub servers pull this crap.
I’m on FS and would prefer not to have a clueless American zerg.
Happy for the server to drop a few tiers and get some good fights.
Having to queue for Borderlands sucked, its great how it is now with no queues
What is this I don’t even..
Dude you clearly not helping, and I’m surprised that you still call yourself “Far Shiverpeaks player” after your thread My Guild is looking for a new server
You clearly have no rights to judge anyone who will stay here and those who looking for help and for ways to make server stronger.
Abiens, abi!
Under no circumstances, there will be an alliance btw AS and VS, we are here to kick the kitten of VS of first place, ( push them in D2 will be fun to ).
It doesn’t really matters if you ally with VS or not. FS played and will continue to play killing any reds on sight.
Surprisingly Vizunah Square is too frightened of FS so they even launched an alliance with Riverside to kick us to D2: http://forums.jeuxonline.info/showthread.php?t=1196458
Ofc they failed miserably, but it’s still fun to read “anti-russian” butthurting thread. After such threads no one can say that VS and AS wont ally in future, but this is less important at the moment.
More importantly that AS have strong force of nightcappers and they will steal nightpoints from VS, ruining their sweet 500-700+ point pool and demoralizing pve carebears that never fought with live enemy at night.
nice how you ignored my screenshot 9am (gmt+2) should be 7am at gmt+4, shouldnt it?
/facepalm
It seems math and geographic education of german youth these days is really poor.
9 am gmt +2 = 11am gmt +4, you silly. Sun is rising in the East, not in the West.
On your screen it’s Saturday late morning and it’s nowhere near “nightcapping time window”.
it doesnt matter what EXACTLY is causing it. It just happens when the mesmer portal gets used……
It’s not fun to fight an invisible zerg…
I have 5 fps in WvWvW. It’s no fun to have 5 fps in WvWvW.
I dont see enemy zerg bashing our gates when I exit keep portal (portal!! arrrgh!! lets remove exit portals too because they cause teleportation!). Please dont bash our gates and walls with zergs (not more than 5 people) because you causing lags and rendering issues on my side. And if you refuse then I decide that you ruining my experience intentionally.
Also it’s funny how germans read only what they like to read.
All players on all servers have rendering issues caused by game engine underdevelopment. It does not matters how you experience it – when zerg attacking you suddenly jumping from the keep wall, from water, from behind, trough mesmer or gate portal – you and your enemy both will not see each other. Arena working on the fix and we all wait for the fix to kill your zerg even more efficiently (now with ability to see all zerglings).
But you can protect yourself if you cover all possible income paths by scouts so you will have 3-5 seconds to setup your AoE or change your positions and prepare.
All we have seen in our roamings – it’s no matter how you attack Riverside pug (even with obvious “let’s just run into them from behind ololo”) – they never show even smallest parts of intelligence and tactic and die.
Hopefully Arborstone will move Riverside from D1 and we will see more interesting fights without whining.
we had lots of good engagements with vizunah, and no one by riverside call out vizunah for nightcapping cause its an issue the ppl we fought during prime time cant change at all.
what they can change is how they fight, and when it comes to this FS guilds GF and NUG are the one biggest scumbag guilds i ever met in like 10years of compatative mmog-pvp.
however i say congratulations to you. you ruined the name of your server in just 7days. you could use the next 7 days to clean this. but i guess you will google for more exploits to use. and next saturday you will just blame vizunah for night activity again.
We lost the 6k points because most of the people on Riverside were tired from playing against your two mesmer portal exploiting guilds. We had no queue time on both enemy borderlands for the first time since release on wednesday, thursday and friday.
@sarmiko,
i know you are teh very very stronkest best pvp guys around the whole mmog scene.
but i have to laught out when you want to proof how RS doing nightcapping, posting screenshots from 10:00am (its dark night out at this time in germany) or just screens without timestemps at all.
awesome proof! gj!
Timestamp in the game shows your current local time, you dummy. Screens were made in GMT +3 timezone and then converted to GMT +0, so even the geniuses like you can do simpler math and not overheat their brains (it didnt worked in the end, I overestimated german education).
You have lost 6k points between 14:00 and 23:00 GMT Friday in the primetime.
Screens that I have posted next (NB: the ones with dates) were made on mornings from Monday till Friday, when majority of FS players not playing yet. And they clearly show that nightcapers spirit is strong with Riverside. Too bad they are so unskillful to save their advantage and progress during prime time.
And secondly, I’d like to see some incentive for the world in second place to work with the world in third place; right now they start capping the already outnumbered 3rd quite often.
Let’s play with only one rule:
RED = DEAD
Seriously, even if Riverside had some form of organization (which they dont have), I dont see how it’s even possible to ally with raging teenagers who call FS as exploiters/cheaters.
We’ll better wait Desolation or another [FR] server (hopefully they war with each other like russians )
Wth are you all talking about, during the day it was mostly even. FS did NOT dominate the day at prime time. You are only 6k points ahead of us and we both got the french problem at night (with FS capping last early morning and tonight before the reset to take the 2nd place from us). You were even 3rd place friday morning.
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Strongest-force-in-europe-ranking-2nd/290221
Please look at actual score screenshots and show where have you found ’’FS capping last early morning and tonight". I hope you brave enough to not swallow your tongue after this.
Riverside used nightcapping every night but they had lost their advantage every evening just like in previous weeks. FS planned and prepared to final push, and as expected regained what was lost. Moreover Riverside morale is totally ruined now, and this is unexpectedly enjoyable after all that dirt they said about Disorder League.
FS is not second, all the good pvp players have quit.
Noone around after reset, not even any queue.
Loosing badly whole week.
What are you doing on Far Shiiverpeaks then?
Please transfer somewhere else or get back to LotR and stop this demoralizing speeches.
Actually we dont need whiners like you on FS, because even loss is the way to improvement. And overcome in continuous battle is more interesting for us than point gathering and pve degradation.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but being 3rd all week and deciding to nightcap on friday to become second (by 6k points only) isn’t making you the best server in EU.
You are all mad because you are bad, i can understand that
Sorry but no one cares about french night PVE players anymore, because they are insignificant factor in our playtime. We do care about french primetime guilds like WL or FM, that are always interesting, while rest of the night population prefers to slowly degrade and slack without resistance. How many night cappers will stay in the game after month or two of “pve domination” – time will show.
Oh this thread again..
Only real solution would be if Arena removes NA|EU matchup division. Then we will have more realistic world rankings (which is obviously cooler) and population will balance itself naturally without artificial threads “Hey EU players come play on NA, because we NA players will never come to EU”.
Honestly, playing on EU server I’m not even sure if I have acceptable ping because there is no visual tools to monitor this.
Who knows, maybe FS is located in US and we all have 250+ ms ping like in GW1, then once again there is no reasons to divide EU from NA.
You are knowingly and willingly abusing an issue with the game’s engine to gain an advantage.
We have the same exactly issue with game engine and no one stops you from killing us while we dont see anyone in the next 10 seconds.
There is enough smart enemies (mostly from VS) that can counter portals efficiently, and they also using this legitimate tactic.
Anyway, wipe your tears and fight last day without crying. It’s disgusting to see posts like “we didnt fight anymore because we cannot counter portals” from one of the highest ranked EU servers. Riverside players already forgot how they lost all previous matches to FS?
Well it is much harder to pull a 10 portal sync jump then a “EVERYONE RUN INTO THE PORTAL AND SPAMM AOE” tactic.
I mean I personly stoped using the portal near enemys just to prevent that from happening ( it seems like if you drop the portal and user it in fight it can cause rendering issus aswell) and it would just feel lame to win by such a cheap trick.
Ok so now we know two things from that post:
1. Sudden and surprise attacks considered as cheap tricks. We all should fight like 17 century armies, only in the plain field, only by schedule, face to face. No objections here, dear Sir. We send you our schedule for weekend by the mail.
2. “Jump-into-portal-NOWWW” is very easy and any noob zerg can do this without any coordination and skill. Yet this is very “overpowered” (just look at amount of whine from Riverside – they think this is main reason why they lose) and considered as mysterious shamanic technology available only to FS players. Riverside will develop this tactic only after few months of hard R&D
