Guild Wars 2

12 stacks here, no reward, no blooms, no drops, nothing.

One can only hope HoT brings a few different pet types, preferably some bigger looking ones with useful and reliable f2.

I’m not sure if I follow…

You only need to do the LS (chapters 2 through 4) once to complete Mawdrey. The items you get in the mail/as rewards then need to be infused in the open world to be used in the crafting of the backpiece/pet.

Try using this guide when Dulfy is back up and running again: http://dulfy.net/2014/08/13/gw2-mawdrey-ascended-backpiece-and-pet-crafting-guide/

Here’s a mirror for the meantime: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache%3A4JwMBry5I5QJ%3Adulfy.net%2F2014%2F08%2F13%2Fgw2-mawdrey-ascended-backpiece-and-pet-crafting-guide%2F+&cd=1&hl=no&ct=clnk&gl=no

What vendor are you talking about? You should have aquired the cultivated seed by turning a mysterious sprout into a mysterious vine. The complete track is:

Mysterious Seed → Myst Seedling → Myst Sprout → Myst Vine + Cultivated Seed
Cultivated Seed → Cult Seedling → Cult Sprout → Cult Shoot → Cult Vine + Pet Seed
Pet Seed → Pet Seedling → Pet Sprout → Pet Shoot → Pet Plantling → Mawdrey + Mawdrey II

Ok, apparently there was a bug where the Cultivated Seed was wrongly turned into a bugged version of the Pet Seed. This bugged Pet Seed can be traded for a Cultivated Seed at a vendor.

A pants set that doesn’t clip with my tail. Or a head set that doesn’t clip with my horns.

Stuff like this seems like an obvious feature of an expansion pack. I’m excited for HoT, but I’ll admit I will be a bit disappointed if there are no new racial features like charr horns, asura ears, etc.

There were lots of good ideas in the racial sub-forums for charr horns and stuff. I really hope this expansion delivers.

I’d love it to be added in. It’s just the sort of thing they quietly do and then announce when it’s ready, since it wouldn’t count as a “major new feature” if it’s just a few more cosmetic options. So let’s keep on hoping

Oh yeah, it was your thread, Frostfang, I remember posting in it even!

Man, it sucks that we don’t have sub-forums dedicated to all the playable races anymore. I suggested charr horns that looked more like deer/elk antlers or even that of a gazelle. And I really do think we need an option to color charr horns too. I feel like that should’ve been a feature to begin with.

Unfortunately, I’m not expecting anything like this when the expansion hits, but that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t like to be pleasantly mistaken.

Its not just ranger pets that to this, if you summon an ally to fight for you, ( Fire ele, etc ) they also will not go and fight unless you run in, and even when you run back they follow, even though you are still within agro range.

Since, last week update ranger pets are a bit more timid when it comes to fighting the world boss Golem Mark II. They would rather stay by the player than go out there to fight. If you go into melee range they’ll attack sometimes.

It would be nice, needing to buy 7 runes for the occasional underwater shenanigans is a pain :p

WaterBreathers serves no real purpose.
* Use helmet STATS/RUNES
* Add a "Skin" slot, so it looks like you’re wearing one UnderWater

I have been holding out in hopes for this one.

Would love to hide shoes on Charr

i have that bug too. Pls fix this annyoing bug

Nothing confirmed, but it is quite safe to assume that new options will be added, like hairs, faces and colors.
I wish that new details get added too, like norn tattos, human and norn beards, asura ears, charr horns and fur patters, sylvari glow and so on.

Old cardboard wings looked bad, new flappity flappity cloth wings look bad, overall wing anatomy is rather poor (totally imaginary "i think this is what wings are like kind of" anyone?

Wings based on real anatomy look so much better imo, more complex, strong, and functional. http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs10/f/2006/078/8/b/brrdtut.jpg. The kind of long pointy random feather wings look amateurish and fake to me. )

Even if there’s no hope for the fake costume anatomy design, having certain parts of the wing be more flexible and certain parts be stiffer would look better than this all or nothing laziness.

they thing is, the floppy part is good but not on such a big area, they should keep it on the edge feathers while keeping the rest stiff.

On topic of wings, I’d appreciate a checkbox in the options to hide all wing type back items… I’m sure plenty of you like them, but for me, they are an eyesore, floppy or stiff.

Yes please. A check box option to hide all wings would be fab as more often than not they screen hog making visibility poor to say the least. Sure they look fab but when playing with others some consideration would also be fab-

Donari.5237:

I’m happier with them flowing instead of jerking rigidly back and forth when running. I think of them as costume pieces, not functional wings, just something Tyrians have made to adorn themselves.

The previous stiff jerkiness was distressing to my eyes in the same way as ceiling fans, whirling orbs around characters, flickering wasp wings, swishing charr and drake tails, or any other back and forth strobing motion is. As in I get motion sickness. So I’m all for the physics that got introduced.

I don’t necessarily want it to go back to cardboard, but a little less floaty/papery would be nice. Right now it flows with movement like hair. Feathers don’t really do that, especially heavy wings. I’m sure they’re capable of finding a happy medium that doesn’t look super unrealistic like the added physics does.

Essentially, I think they overshot their mark.

Hey all, it seemed to work once, maybe again if we can mention it soon enough (and if enough people agree). But could we dial back the “floatiness” of wings? They started off a cardboard, stiff but they felt like heavy wings, which frankly I prefered, but a little life was much welcomed.

But now they’re like flowing hairs, they float behind you in a very weird and ugly manner when moving and turning just looks silly. They certainly don’t look like wings anymore, as you could never flap these things against the wind, they’re basically paper.

I’ve attached some images that show what I’m referring to.

Just a bit stiffer, with maybe some flexibility to the lower feathers would have been nice, looks a bit silly now.

Anyone else agree, or am I crazy?

How do you feel for those who didn’t want sword ?

Definitely. I voiced this thought in another thread but had completely forgotten about it.

I say give us the option to use our armor dyes on our hairpieces somehow. Have it unlocked for your armor = have it unlocked for your hairpiece.

Add me to the list of people who want new colors for hair accessories. Arenanet has given us such a wonderful collection of new hair colors that the number of colors we have for accessories needs to catch up……I would love to give my little Asura pastel pink ribbons for her hair.

Lisa- would even buy a doohicky from the Gemstore to unlock new accessory colors.

We’ve been waiting/asking for this since shortly after launch. Probably won’t ever get done.

New hair colors here, new eye colors there! Look at all the plethora of rainbow pretty colors, only to be smeared by the fact we can’t get a true red or a true white/black/anything hair accessory. And since there are so many hair accessory styles, this is hard for me to ignore.

Can we make these dye-able the same as our clothes someday? Please?
There is no way you can tell me that Matte is similar to Celestial, or Autumn to Scarlet.
It’d be nice to just have all the colors we have as dyes available in the character create screen, or a small box to dye the hair accessory on the equipment screen.
