[Bug] Thief losing initiative on rally.

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

Hi,

Today I was taking on a champ in Iron Marches, and noticed that after I was downed but rallied (after killing a normal branded creature) my initiative went down from 15 to 12, even though my traits (namely ‘Preparedness’ in Trickery) were unchanged.

It fixed itself when I used a WP (and imagine it would if you log out and back in again) but that isn’t exactly ideal when you’re mid-combat. I couldn’t tell if any other traits were affected, possibly so. Any chance to look into this?

If an account has been terminated, then maybe … but that’s like the only case. And since I would guess most terminated accounts are gold seller advertisers with names like ljhafdshdsf, I don’t think anybody is waiting for that one.

I was so annoyed the other day when I wanted to have the name Gfghifasdk but that was taken, so I had to use an accented í instead.

Forced name change....... after 3years ???

penelopehannibal.8947

What the scrub is going on???

Oki so I was here at the release of GW2 and I played my Mesmer named:
Tree kitten since then!
I have had that name for 3 years then I recently paid for a name change and moved the name to my ranger Main ready to play Druid… this was done about 2-3 months ago… and was all fine!

How ever I log in today to find that a name I’ve had since the day the game went live is now no longer exceptable?

I want my name back

any feedback of advice to help me reclaim my name would be greatly appreciated!

Surely I should get my name back or at the very least get the £8 a spent on the kitten name change???

Firstly on the three years part: If you would have used the offensive name originally as your main alt, it would have been reported by a player a lot sooner than it has been now.

Secondly: The £8 – you lost it yourself I’m afraid. It was your choice, not ArenaNet’s that you chose to use your £8 to break the ToS. I very much doubt you’ll get a refund.

Thirdly: The name change contract: Since you’ve actually been forced a name change contract – you’ve actually got more value for money, since indirectly you’ve had two uses of the same contract when most of us only get one!

Just try to be more careful next time – swear worded and naughty names will always get forced a name change no matter how long it takes – and some people get a ban for theirs, so at least you only got the forced name change!

4/9 revealed, no repetition of elite weap

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

I think the Kübler-Ross model can be applied to some degree here.

Stage 1: Denial “That’s not a staff. It could easily be a rifle or a musket”

Stage 2: Anger “If thief gets this, I’m not @£#!$% buying HoT!!!”

Stage 3: Bargaining “[Suggestion] Thief Rifle skills – Look, how about including some skills that I think are super cool like…”

Stage 4: Depression “It’s going to be a sad day if Thief gets staff, I don’t feel like playing at the moment”

Stage 5: Acceptance “Hey, looks like we’re getting staff. I would have preferred rifle, but let’s see how it goes at the reveal.”

You gotta decide which stages some of you are at. Also, feel free to repost this, editing it for the Pro-Staff crowd instead of the Pro-Rifle crowd. And I still think we could end up with anything, I’m not saying it’s definitely staff, just looking towards that way!!

Achievement cap [Merged]

penelopehannibal.8947

It’s not a competition.

If it isn’t, then why create a daily achievement limit?

Because it’s not a competition!

And why is there a achievement point leader board, huh? Looks like a competition to me. It makes no sense. And they state it as to let newer players have a chance to catch up.

The leaderboard has everyone on the same ‘league’ – whether the person’s been playing for 1 day, or 1,374 days. If it is a competition, it isn’t a fair one.

Also this:

The 30k+ achievement players also have the same cap that the 29k and below players do, though. They’re “unreachable” because they had access to all of the old achievements; and made sure they did every single achievement they could to get every point they could, even in game modes they might not care for. Even if Anet removed the daily AP cap, you’d still likely never catch up to them because they did all the other achievements everyone else couldn’t/didn’t/won’t do.

Afk Minion Farming - Against ToS?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

So to recap, EW said intentional mechanics are not permission to afk farm and MH said that that statement was correct.

Then he goes on to muddy the water to say pets killing and auto looting is ok, which isn’t the same as afk farming just that those mechanisms are themselves part of the game.

Exactly this.

There’s a difference between permissible gaining loot from being AFK, for example, to answer the door because the postman has arrived. If you’re just genuinely AFK, the game will kick you out after 60 minutes.

Then there’s people using the game mechanics, adding up toughness, Alt+Right Clicking a heal skill, setting traits to prolong minion life etc. All these on their own are not against the rules. But to put them altogether and then park your character in a situation where you know you’re going to gain advantage whilst not at your keyboard for eight hours, this is not ok.

Even though the dev quotes are foggy at best, I am still reporting such users.

If you read the DEV quotes that I linked, you will see that yes, that is what the players are doing and it is an intended ability because of Auto loot and the current pet mechanics. That doesn’t mean it can’t and won’t change.

As long as they don’t use third party programs then they are not breaking the TOS.

I was there in the thread at the time, replying to at least one of the dev quotes that you quoted. My interpretation of the dev quotes are the same as Just a flesh wound’s.

Something MUST be done about the RP in DR

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

I agree no one is forced into it, just the option of turning off ALL emotes to avoid seeing a ton of it when you don’t feel like it is far from ideal.

What do you think about what I suggested Penelope?

I’m suggesting simply a command line like /me “text here” but /rp “text here” and players that want to opt out of the /rp line can turn it off. It would basically be the SAME THING as /me just not using the emote lines.

I think it’s not needed. We’ve been RPing for over four years now using the /say chat channel. Most RP is done away from standard PvE’ers anyway. When was the last time someone queued for a WvW map or waited for Tequatl or a dungeon party from The Maiden’s Whisper?

The range of emotes does need to be reduced though. Even RPers agree with this.The range used to be a lot less than it is now, so it wouldn’t be a problem to re-reduce the range, and it wouldn’t affect RPers anyway, since emotes are directed toward other RPers virtually right next to them.

These topics come up every so often, and it is almost always the roleplayer that gets labelled the bad guy. It’s almost always someone who starts these topics that don’t want to do the simple thing and edit their chat tabs (they still have it set to ‘Main’ and ‘Combat’ as default from day 1).

It’s almost always a topic that suggests the many who have to change to satisfy the needs of the few.

And it’s almost always someone who is complaining about it happening whilst they’re AFK, using the bank or crafting in a city as well. Never that they are seeing it whilst in Kessex or Mount Maelstrom or Cursed Shore.

Farming in the open world has always brought about toxic chat, such as Queensdale Champ Train, and the Coil “Fail the Event on purpose” Train in Frostgorge Sound. Mainly because everyone claims “entitlement” to the mobs. Luckily these two examples got dealt with.

I think the best way to resolve this Maize Balm farming issue is to simply add a few ambient creatures in home instances, and make the bags only work in your home instance. Thus, only party members can take away your creatures, so it would be controlled.

People trying to do weapon master will also have their own place to go too.

Yeah I don’t get how people can possibly see a rifle in what is quite obviously just a stick.

There is no stock, barrel, muzzle, trigger or any sort of mechanism on that entire stick. How could it possibly be a rifle.

It’s clearly a rifle. It’s just a magic rifle that doesn’t need a stock, muzzle, trigger or bullets.

How to Handle Player Threats?

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

As people have said before, right click and report people who are using abusive language against you.

The player who has threatened you is completely wrong if they think that the more people who report someone, the more likely you are to be banned. Don’t worry about it – if he got 150 guildies to report you, a human still looks into it, and treats it as if it’s just one report. If you’ve done no wrong, you’ve nothing to worry about.

As someone asked earlier, it could only look bad if you waited until the boss was nearly complete to kick the person. If you kicked them as soon as the verbal abuse took place, you have nothing to worry about.

Edit: Don’t forget to block them as soon as you’ve reported them too.

I've Finished The Privateer Set

penelopehannibal.8947

Hi,

I’m pleased with my most recent achievement, completing the Privateer Weapon Collection, which are the Black Lion weapon skins that are account bound on acquire, and never cost more than one ticket each.

It was (strangely) really enjoyable collecting these weapons, and was wondering if there’ll be another black lion weapon set that will be account bound and only cost one ticket no matter how long the weapon skins are available.

I know account bound weapon skins are not to everyone’s taste, so keeping the other system should still be in place too, but I think it’s about time for a second set of this newer single ticket weapon set.

[Suggestion]
Also, I think those who complete the BL sets should get title! ‘Privateer’ in my case.

[Personal Story] Caladbolg & Revenants

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

Hi,

A couple of days ago, I decided to have my Sylvari Revenant Wynnach join the Order of Whispers during personal story step ‘A Tangle of Weeds’ (circa. 1325 in Ascalonian Settlement, so not talking about HoT here!). He was wielding the Caladbolg greatsword and his weapon skills were changed as normal.

However, he didn’t seem to have any utility skills! No healing, no elite. Nothing. I thought nothing of it at first, and survived the fight anyway (just!) as I put it down to the change of weapon.

Today, I have taken another Sylvari to the same story step. This time, my Elementalist Caerven. She still managed to keep her healing, utility and elite skills despite wielding the greatsword.

I’ve come to the conclusion it is because of the way Utility skills work with Revenant, in that once the Greatsword is wielded you lose your legend invocation skills. Below is a picture of Caerven with her full utility skill belt. Unfortunately I don’t have a picture of Wynnach without his, since I didn’t think anything of it at the time. It was a fairly tough battle for Wynnach though, I must say.

Here for your enjoyment, I found a bot this morning that wasn’t only AFK farming, but as evident was using 3rd party programme to constantly spam skill 1 of it’s longbow as well.

So I popped over with my mesmer (I’m the human, the Sylvari is a guild friend of mine who isn’t a bot!) with the Bouquet of Flowers toy, and tossed a bunch to it. Although it didn’t stop the bot (the Asura) from gaining loot from the constant spawning of a nearby drake, it was fun to watch for a short while!

Of course, I also used the in-game report system first!

Edit: The originally idea behind the flowers was to try and force the bot into costume brawl, so I could then use Mad King Scepter to fear it out of the way. Unfortunately didn’t work since the flowers need to have a charge up to activate costume brawl, but was still fun to watch the little blighter bash the floor with the flowers a few times!

I don’t think these boosts should be taken away, because what else are you going to make with the Chef profession other than dyes?

Duels, Inspections and Vehicals

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

Let’s not have things just because other games have them. GW2 isn’t other games.

No to Duels: Because PvE was exclusively designed to be the co-operative play side of the game. Duels can still be done in Guild Halls, Custom Arenas and to some degree, Costume Brawl.

No to Inspections: As I said, GW2 isn’t other games. It’s meant to have been designed as a community friendly game. Raids being introduced has already caused some sense of division. Gear inspection where someone gets kicked for have 10 less power than what someone is “supposed” to have will increase division. It also should never be forced.

No to ‘Vehicles’: A bit trickier to say no to, but I’m still against it for two reasons. First of all, int he world of Tyria, things are genuinely added to the game to still make sense from a lore/immersion perspective. We already have Waypoints and Asura gates that are faster travel than a car, so from a backline perspective it wouldn’t make sense.

Secondly, I believe the toys are a nice compromise. The ‘mounts’ shouldn’t be a combat aid in my opinion, and I think getting forced off a broom or carpet when you’re engaged is a good thing, and they are pretty much the closest things to mounts we’re going to get.

GUILD WARS 2 MAIN TOPIC

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: penelopehannibal.8947

penelopehannibal.8947

With the introduction of HoT, there are two things that encourage Guild vs Guild, even if there’s isn’t a specific Game Mode for it.

The first is that Guilds can now create PvP teams, so when they are queueing for PvP matches, they are ‘more likely’ to be put against another guild team. It’s quite a common occurrence nowadays too, with the introduction of PvP-Based guild missions.

The second option is the Guild Hall arenas. You can brawl and battle with your own guilds, or better yet – invite five members of another guild to your arena!

Another option is of course, custom made PvP arenas, though GvG is very rare through that since most custom PvP arenas seem to be based around Rank & Daily farming.

Hope this helps.

Thats what im saying, it costs more to make them, if they can make it so that we can buy it with spirit shards as i have thousands that i wont really use lol

Exactly my point – they won’t make it easier or cheaper to obtain through purchases than it is to craft, otherwise nobody would craft them, and if nobody would craft them, there would be a knock-on effect across a range of other stuff on the Trading Post (specifically, T6 mats might end up going higher due to them not coming from the Mystic Forge).

I agree that Spirit Shards need more things to be able to purchase with as I too, have way too many. But for Mystic Clovers that are meant to be expensive and not straight forward to obtain, sorry but not in my opinion.
