Guild Wars 2

HOM skins are for people who played GW1. If you want them, play GW1.

In Lion’s Arch, visit the Laurel merchant and you can see you can buy 2 arrow cart blueprints for 1 laurel.

Now, if I buy 1 Heavy Crafting bag for 1 laurel and sell all the materials I got on trading post, then I can buy 100 blueprints from there.

Is this to give a view about the inflation some parts the game has suffered?

So your idea is to salvage exotics to get both of these globs, and then salvage one of these globs to get those other globs?
Sounds silly.

I agree…however instead of Risen Illusionists I would have Dredge Illusionists that are immune to blind and other CC

What kind of cruel mastermind are you…
I hope they have as much HP as the Veteran in the pressure plate room in underground facility on 50 though, or it’s not fair enough.

But I enjoy this fight so much! It’s the best designed encounter in the whole game

Edit: or more exactly the only encounter that has a design

I hope that if A-net comes up with coin searching achievements again in future (or similar achievements in later living story segments), it will be for 30 out of 34 coins i.e. please don’t make us find exactly 30 out of available 30 coins.

In that sense what they did for the (regular) crystals in the Zephyr Sanctum was good, IMO.

When they insist we find exactly 30 out of 30 to get the achievement, the only thing they’re doing is promoting sites like Dulfy because:

• Player who tried to find them himself gets frustrated and gives up,
• Player who tried to find them himself ends up referring to Dulfy guide,
• Player doesn’t even wanna try and immediately refers to Dulfy guide.

That robs the majority of us of the sense of accomplishment that we did it ourselves and make the players who went straight to the Dulfy guide seem like the smarter ones.

That’s definitely just a bug/forgetfulness, no question about it.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs

If they fix those bugs as fast as the mesmer ones this will soon be a feature.

Nevermind all the other rewards you got from opening all of those chests.

Sorry, this just screams entitlement to me.

I really hope they deal with this issue some way other than allowing you to sell fossils on the TP. Maybe if the chests dropped ambrite and a certain amount of ambrite could be traded to the NPC for your choice of fossil?

When a game doesn’t allow you to buy something from other players, making it’s acquisition incredibly rare RNG is the wrong way to do it. Something needs to offset the ease of acquisition provided by trading with players. A token system (ambrite) allows long term progression towards item acquisition, by still retaining the (questionable) decision to make fossils an RNG roll in the first place.

Retain their account-bound status to ensure players with these weapons have to play the content, but adjust their acquisition so that there is a progression back up in addition to the RNG nonsense (similar to how fractals use Pristine Relics for ascended rings in addition to daily RNG rolls).

If I could sell mine, I would. I don’t like any of the new amber weapon skins, but I’m reluctant to just toss the fossil away since I know the value it has.

Mind you, making them tradeable would seriously devalue the weapon skins, but the RNG nature of acquisition is the same reason why people really hate the standard methods of acquiring precursors. At least with precursors you can buy them (albeit for exorbitant prices).

I’ve spent 4-5 hours every day for the last 3 days mindlessly farming dry top for geodes so I can open chests so I can make what I believe are the coolest and most unique weapon skins anet has released in a long time (they remind me of elder scrolls IV’s mania amber weapons), however after losing count of over 100 chests being opened, I have yet to get a single fossil, while many others have gotten 2-4 fossils in that same time frame.

Honestly its a frustrating way to progress towards a reward, and whereas some people may only need 600-700 goedes to make one weapon based on luck, I might need 1500+ geodes to make the same weapon. In short, its unfair and making me hate the living story event content. If there was another way to obtain the skins without doing the event, everything would be fine, but right now all its doing is alienating unlucky players, making them feel like they’re wasting their time and sidetracking other PvE tpvp and WvW goals just to get skins.

You may say, well these skins are permanent, you can make them any time. But thats only a possibility if T4/5 maps don’t die out as new content is released in the future. In 2 weeks or a month from now, anet could release a crafted amberite backpiece or armor, and unlucky players that couldn’t get a weapon skin will be even more disconnected or alienated based on that. And finally, its a downright slap in the face for so many people who don’t care about ever making the skins to find fossils, while the people giving up so much time that could be spent doing more fun things in the game (such as myself) spend just as much if not more time farming to unlock chests never get a single fossil.

All of this is bad rewards design. Cut the RNG or give us alternative but informed ways of acquiring these skins, such as buying on the TP or a guaranteed fossil after 50 chests or something like that.

Hand Sanitizer.

Honestly I just think they’re ugly. They’re just corroded rock and magic. The magic part is cool and all, but the rest of it is hardly impressive in the slightest. Personally I found the Phoenix and Lovestruck Skins to be more my speed. They looked like proper weapons for the most part with acceptable magical enchantments/additions. My only complaint is that they don’t come with Gold instead of the Grey/Silver we got.

I really wish we could dye weapons.

The back part is probably like the obi, which is the sash around the middle with a bow at the back which can be very ornate. Seeing as this is an Oriental themed outfit, it’s very appropriate.

Example of obis, from the back

You must not go to the right strip clubs if you think this shows more skin.

Yep. Everything sounds much better in English al right.

Give the person who created the Chickenado boss a applause because that is one of the most creative boss in this update. :p

But when it was up, you could only spend them to run the gauntlet, which was both annoying and way too time consuming. It would have taken be hundreds of hours to get through all those tickets. They need a way to just convert them into something useful, even at an exchange rage of less than a copper per ticket.

It will be made available with the cantha update. in the coin mall

FTFY

It currently exists on an NPC. Belinda Delaqua wears that sword. Since it i in the wardrobe, we are expecting it will become available to players soon.

Flying Mounts.

My source? The internet.

I’ve done way more than enough for Arena Net so that I may be able to demand certain aesthetics for my weapons.

LOL, what have you done for them? Do you work for ArenaNet? Have you bought a bunch of stock in the company? If you really have earned the right to make demands, why do you have to resort to posting suggestions on the forums like everyone else? Just bring it up with Colin at the next board meeting!
