Guild Wars 2

Hi, I have a Razer Naga 2014 and after HoT got released there are some issues with it. I’m holding the right button to turn the camera and often it stops and the cursor appears disrupting my movement. I have tried to replicate the issue on other games but it seems it’s a GW2-only bug. I have updated the drivers/software of the mouse. I am using Windows 7 sp1. If you have any ideas of what I can do to fix please let me know. Thanks.

I’m looking for an Oceanic guild on Blackgate server. I main Thief and I’m a PvX player. I’m doing daily some dungeons, tPvP (rank 39 atm) and finish my day with some WvW roaming or leveling/exploring with alts. The guild should be able to have 24/7 the standard guild buffs (karma, gathering, experience etc) and doing couple of times per week guild missions. Thanks.

It’s been 3 months since that bug started to happen. Logout, login and your inventory has changed in size. Please fix it. It’s very annoying. Thanks.

So you can get the Hero version and in the future when you get more tickets you can upgrade it.

How can you get more tickets in the future? Or by future you mean WvW Season 3?

While the World vs. World team investigates an issue with tournament reward chest distribution, we are temporarily delaying access to the rewards that would have otherwise been available on the Battle Historian on June 3rd. We hope this will help prevent further compounding the issue, and avoiding unnecessary confusion while we work to resolve the problem. Thank you for your patience.

Thanks for the post and I’m really sorry for the the idiotic/hate comments.

I’m looking for a guild that is doing guild missions on Saturday/Sunday evening in Australian time zone (UTC+10). I’m interested in doing ONLY guild missions as I am already a member of another guild.

Here you go savchris: http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/thief/?7.3|a.5q.h1n.8.5q.h5.e12.0.e12|5.1q.h1j.0.0.0|1q.71p.1q.71p.1q.71p.1q.71p.1q.71p.1q.71p.0.0.0.0.0.0|1q.62.1q.62.1q.62.1q.62.1q.62.1q.62|a3.0.u46b.0.u67c|30.d|57.5a.5c.5h.0|e

Thats my main build that you see being played in the video. Something that the build editor wouldn’t let me do, is instead of having a kill stacking sigil on the dagger, I actually have a major sigil of bursting. Since I have a Superior sigil of bursting I can’t put another, but Superior and Major do stack, so its 6% + 5% condition damage. The kill sigil is usually on my shortbow.

My second build uses the same weapons, and sigils, but instead uses carrion armour + trinkets, and 3 afflicted and 3 krait runes on the armour. The traitset is 0/0/30/20/20, with the same traits used in shadow arts, acrobatics uses II and III, and trickery uses III and VII. The whole point of the build is to be a dodging machine, and let the dodging and stealth build up your might stacks. Using the might on dodge food also really helps. The utils are the same, except I use withdraw instead of HiS.

Hope that helps!

Thank you! With the upcoming season 2 I’m trying lots of different builds. Backstab builds are nowdays very predictable and everyone knows how to counter us thieves. But condition builds seems to have a very good combination of survivability and damage. Cheers!

I’d love a link of your builds, since you said you use 2. Build, gear, runes etc. Thanks!

No reason to pick thief for pve OR pvp anymore. Only function now is a scout in wvw.

So sad but so true. This is how I feel for a long time now. We offer nothing more or better that other professions, only less.

Hi thieves. After the last patch it’s been really hard to survive in sPvP. I’m trying many builds every day but again nothing. When I have an aggressive build I’m dying really fast and when I have a defensive build my damage is kitten Either way I feel that I’m not providing anything good to my team. For sure I can’t defend a base or even roaming to attack bases. I’d like to know if you have any suggestions like builds or play-styles and also I wanna ask you why a tournament team would pick a thief over another profession. I mean, what are we good for in pvp? Where do we excel? Thanks for reading.

Is salvage kits the only factor of getting a greater value material when salvaging something?
For example Valuable Metal Scrap can salvage to 1-3 Mithril Ore and an Orichalcum Ore.
What are the chances of the result? If I use a Crude Salvage Kit that has NO chance of getting a rare material, this means that I will never ever get an Orichalcum Ore from that item?
If this is the case is simply enough to make a spreadsheet covering all the results by the salvage kit you use. If that’s not the case, is there any basic chance? Is there any DR on that basic chance?! By basic chance I mean in the previous example a standard lets say 10% of getting an Orichalcum Ore and when using a salvage kit with 50% added value that will sum up to 60%.

Guild Wars 2 stands out for the PvP. For me its one of the best PvP experiences an mmo can offer. We need to introduce Guild Wars 2 PvP to electronic sports. LoL started its very first season with a huge competition giving away if I remember right 500thousand dollars. That made the game popular, known for its competition and its great rewards. Brought people to the game. Second season and they gave away 5million freaking dollars! And it’s free to play! Wow… Guild Wars 2 has that thrill in PvP. Has players with skills. Players that can make that game famous. Anet bring Guild Wars 2 to electronic sports!

I don’t want ever again to see that massive chat spam of “WTB” or “WTS” that I was seeing every day in other mmo games. And this will start the same day a trading system will go live. No. Thank you Anet for NOT having that so far. Don’t get me wrong. I understand completely what you guys want. But that spam… Just NO.

The best way is to just set personal limits to what YOU find ok to salvage.

Always salvage whites. It is a good way to get resources and at 80 you have chance of ori, ancient logs and gossamer.

Set yourself a value limit on blue and green itemsfor salvaging and selling. I see everything worth more than 75 copper. Rest I salvage.

I salvage all rares and exotics with Mystic Salvage Kit IF the BLT price isnt higher than the worth of two ectoplasms

This nets me a good amount of money while levelling and especially in Orr farming etc. Again, you should have your own set of “rules” around salvaging like I have mine

Thank you for your answer. I think I’ll start using your system but I also will start making a spreadsheet with the results because I like to “gamble” (salvaging is gambling anyway) more safely.

Hello all, lately I’m searching all over the internet trying to find a salvage guide of what and why to salvage. I’m looking for something like a list of salvage results and what would be the benefits of using better quality of salvage kits. Anyway I would appreciate if someone has found a really nice guide or at least if you guys have an opinion of what items to salvage and when to sell them straight to the vendor. Cheers!

Hello. I moved recently in Australia and I’m struggling with 300+ ping. This makes it really hard to enjoy the game and I’m not even considering playing PvP. So, is Anet thinking of making any Oceanic/Australian server at all? Would love your comments and suggestions on this matter.
Australia needs some gaming love. Need esports to rise here too!
