Ok I found out the problem. It was a issue with the game and the WvW waypoints.
Game wasnt displaying me having discovered anything in the Border land maps. (Even though I have 100% WvW.
So by loading into the Borderland, the world completion updated.
Some kind of bug. Hope this helps anybody else having this issue.
CLOCK TOWER RETURNS!

(Spoiler #1 in the above screen: Notice the gear the lady is wearing? That’s a new set. Don’t know if it’s actually “gear” gear, or if it’s “town” gear. Either way, that’s something NEW!)
I don’t know if anyone has said this yet, but that gear isn’t new. It’s light karma gear.

I’m excited to get another gathering node added to my home instance. Uncharged quartz is cheaper if you have the node (and charged quartz is faster,) but it’s not outrageous if you just buy it off the trading post, either, so if a player misses out on it, it’s not exactly a huge disadvantage, and at least it’s something other than a back skin or a mini. Bam, variety in rewards!
This should be a good time. The decorations are good, Mad King’s Realm was awesome, and there’s a new storyline involving the Mad Prince, so it’s not all returning content. Really all I’m asking for. =D
Although, I’m a little underwhelmed by the Halloween mask, which looks fine, but not all that memorable, compared to the Witch’s_Hat from last year. But, between the Candy Corn node, mini elemental, mini Bloody Prince, 20-slot pail, and the return of Halloween weapons, there seems to be plenty of other things to be excited for.

Gems don’t expire, so it won’t hurt to simply hang onto them until you find something you absolutely ‘must have.’
Although, I find bank tabs to be a sound investment. (At least a few).
As well as extra bag slots on main characters.
The unlimited tools are nice as well (keep in mind they soulbind once equipped, so make sure you put it on the right char).
Additionally, extra character slots, if you feel the desire to have 1 of each class.

It’s not just the luck consumption.. I used to save up karma and have to click one by one to consume, same with scrolls of knowledge: I had about 100 saved up when I used them last and the stack is building up again. So yes, I would appreciate a right click menu option called “use all.”
A right-click function like this wouldn’t be a horrible thing, but any means.

take them out, stack them in your inventory. Put them back. Not optimal but it works.
It’s very annoying… I have been really hoping to see this fixed
Why doesn’t items in guild banks stack? Its so annoying.
Put 4 major runes in the Mystic Forge. Pray to Zommoros. Press the button. Scream in anger when you got a major rune. Do it again. Scream in anger again when you get a Superior rune, but differen than what you were looking for.
Remember, remember, 15th of November
This is kind of a suggestion or kind of a bug. Posts only show the month and day, they really should show the year, as well, as we have passed the one-year mark. Some threads are now posted in, and/or read, with information that looks current (because of the date) but is really a year or more old. Not sure how difficult it would be to implement, but it might be worth considering. Thanks in advance.
No offense, but if you joined someone else’s group, then refused to kill a dungeon boss/mini-boss when others want to kill it, its hard to put blame on them. If you wish to report them for the bad language, that’s one thing, but I find it hard to justify wanting to skip content, then arguing with those who do not. Particularly when you joined “their” group.
Granted, the bad language is uncalled for on their part, but how much time did you spend debating it with them compared to the 90s it would have taken to kill the mob?

Click their name > Click Report Player > Select the offense from the drop down (in your case it sounds like ‘verbal abuse’ option > Click Submit > Click their name again > Click Block Player so you don’t have to hear from them again.
Note: You will not receive the results of your report. If Anet determines their offense was deserving of a suspension they will do so.
I would love this. I always, always forget to go and check the guild messages for my 5 guilds. :C
~ Whips ~ City Minigames ~ City Jumping Puzzles ~
Hi guys! There has been some discussion about whips as a possible new weapon type in various sub forums and other threads such as “which weapon types would you andd and why?”
But surely whips deserve a thread of its own!
(I know of the theard in the ranger subforum, but but but… other classes want whips too.)
Here’s my thoughts (this is just me dreaming up something I would love to be able to play with):
Whips (in real life) can be used with main hand, off hand and dual-wielded. Whips can be used for noise, damage, and control (i.e. wrap an item or person).
Main hand: (mainly) damage
- Smack (moderate damage)
- Slice (less damage + bleed)
- Knock down (least damage + knock + cripple)Off-hand: control
- Wrap (immobilize)
- Pull
Disclaimer: most skills do more than just 1 or 2 things at a time, but I wanted to keep the above list simple. But there is a lot of room to be creative with additional conditions for the class-based skills…
Classes who can use the whip - What I think
Ranger: off-hand
Excuse: pet control, “beastmaster style”
Enhancing the axe or sword in main hand.Thief: off-hand
Excuse: catburglar, “catwoman style”
Enhancing dagger or sword in main hand.Engineer: damage
Excuse: non-magical ranged weapon (short range), adventuring “Indy style”
An alternative to the main hand pistol skills, combines with off-hand pistol or shield.Necromancer: dual-wield
Excuse: minion control, “evil dominator style”
Dual whips will make the necro look like a total boss.
Total combinations overview (I think they all work):
Axe + Whip (Ranger, Necromancer)
Sword + Whip (Ranger)
Dagger + Whip (Thief, Necromancer)
Sword + Whip (Thief)
Pistol + Whip (Thief)
Whip + Pistol (Engineer)
Whip + Shield (Engineer)
Whip + Whip (Necromancer)
Whip + Dagger (Necromancer)
Scepter + Whip (Necromancer)
Whip + Focus (Necromancer)
Whip +Warhorn (Necromancer)
Classes who can use the whip - What others think
I also hear people want the whip for Warriors, Mesmers and Elementalists. I’m not personally a fan of these combinations so this is not a priority to me, but nobody should feel left out so early in the discussion, so here goes:
Warrior: off-hand
Excuse: “gladiator style”. I don’t see any warrior trading their high damage weapon for a whip, but I guess they could use it as an alternative to the warhorn / shield if they would prefer some control skills over boons / protection.Elementalist: I have no idea
I have never played an elementalist so I really don’t know. My personal opinion is that whips are non-magical weapons; or if you would like a “magical whip” instead that’s already in the game (lightning whip), or could be, as previously suggested, a scepter skin which would automatically be available to elementalists.Mesmer: I have no idea
I haven’t spent enough time playing my mesmer either to really have an opinion outside of that I don’t really see how a whip would suit the otherwise posh and elusive style of a mesmer. But: if it was a scepter skin would automatically be available to mesmers (same as with eles and necros).

Can we please get more guild emblems? The art in this game is amazing and while there are lots of guild emblems to choose from, I feel that the game has been out long enough that there should be an update with more emblems to choose from.
Agree more would be nice. We could even have to pay to unlock the Set 2 emblems with merits and influence.
Here’s a great little searchable database that lets you look up food items by level and buffs. Has drop down lists for the searches, just pick the buffs you want and it will give you a list of foods that have it.

Not me. I’m not a fan of the energy based system of GW1 (or most mmo’s that use it tbh). It certainly wouldn’t work here as it was trialled (iirc) and scrapped for slowing the combat down too much, something I could see would be the case.
Some things I’m glad stayed in GW1 and for me personally, this is one of them
Oh noes! You bought a free to play game and didn’t get “enough” free things? Poor guy.

You know, you can buy Gems with in-game gold.
All for a new sylvari elite, sure. But not Conjure Caladbolg. Trahearne got it, deal with it.
Racial skills are less useful than profession skills, should be that way… although I suppose some of the racial skills is a bit too rubbish.
…Could you rephrase the question? Because I don’t think the video speaks for itself quite as much as you meant it to.
I think Lion’s Arch sees a lot of traffic because people use it as a place to hang out while they wait for their group to organize. The other cities are a little harder to use for that function, not only because their services are a little less conveniently placed (although I’d definitely agree on that point), but also because they’re less centralized.
Especially at lower levels, where people don’t have the full world explored yet, it can be pretty inconvenient having to travel the world to meet up with friends. It makes sense that if my Sylvari is meeting my friend’s Charr that instead of meeting up in the Grove or Black Citadel, that we’d both go halfway and meet in Lion’s Arch.
Well inform yourself better before buying something like that next time. It’s not Anets fault, nor is it ours.
Oh Im sorry, because I clearly stated that this is your fault, yeah you’re absolutely right.
And of course I blamed ANET too. that’s is why I’m making a post not asking for help from a perhaps more knowledgeable player.
And by no means did I state that this was my fault by saying “I had no Idea you could use only one per character”
Yes I can see how one can get offended. Sorry mate my fault.
What you’re experiencing here is the so called “Queensdale Champ Train * choo choo *”
That means, a large group of players, also called ‘zerg’, follow a certain rotation of champions around the zone to gain easy EXP, Karma and loot with very little effort.
The Boar spawns north of the Point of interest ‘Hunting Lodge’
The Troll spawns in a cave close to the waypoint ‘Vale’
The Spider spawns up on the hill south of the ‘Hunting Lodge’
The Oakheart/Oak spawns directly at the Point of interest ‘Greatheart weald’ near the Waypoint ‘Phinney’
The Bandit spawns inside of the Bandithaunt Caverns near the Vista there.
And the wasp that is sometimes done too in the forest between the ‘hunting lodge’ and the waypoint ’Ojon’s lumbermill’
but I wouldn’t exactly recommend following this train as a new player, it’s very boring, you see little of the world and you won’t learn to play your class as good as if you explore the world the normal way.
Compiled from another gw2 forum before these came online, but some real gems in here
1. Purchase your gathering items asap. That’s a pick, an axe and a sickle that only cost a few copper and allow you to loot resource nodes.
2. There’s an option “melee targeting assistance” or similar that prohibits you from walking through enemies. It might be better to turn it off, depending on your preference.
3. Type in “/wiki” to open the GW2 wiki.
4. When playing on a foreign client you can instantly translate any game-text into English by pressing the right Ctrl button.
5. You can edit your own music into the game and have it play during different times as explained here: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/c..._music_in_gw2/
6. Press the Cogwheel top right corner of your inventory
Press Deposit all collectibles to put all crafting materials into the bank. (which later can be accessed from the crafting UI from a workstation)
7. Press hide/show bags to make the inventory window into one big bag insted of seperate bags
8. Also, finish a zone 100% to get nice masterwork (green) loot and a black lion key. (all hearts, points of interrest, vistas and waypoints
9. Don’t delete your first character without first sending your backpack,goggles to your new char
10. After you finish a ? quest, go to the ? guy and check for gear upgrades, they usually sell great stuff
11. Be sure to save 10 silver for when you hit level 11, as you have to buy access to your traits
12. Don’t buy violet weapons from vendor in the Mists, it has no dps (its probably for WvWvW). Buy exotic orange weapons.
13. Trebuchet on Battle of Kyhlo is op, it deals 9-11k aoe dmg and you can rush it from start and shoot before enemies take first base (windmill/mansion).
14. Cannon on beach map can be used, you just need to carry cannonballs from nearby ship. It deals 5k aoe dmg and you can shoot both beach and docks with it )
15. Never run away once you’ve completed a Dynamic Event. Try to talk to the NPC’s around you are try to follow any of the conversations NPC’s may have. There may just be one or more events coming up within a minute or 2
16. The mails u receive when u complete a heart are not just mails….take the money inside
17. If you see a resource node don’t rush to it only you can mine it.
18. - you can join the Heart of the Mist by going in Hero – PvP – click Heart of the Mist icon in the top left
19. You can travel to every Capitals by going to Lion’s Arch (take the Asura Portal in any Capital)
20. You have the option “sell junk” in your bags (in the bottom right), it will automatically sell all useless non-salvageable crap.
21. Keybind your weapon swap (as a matter of fact, I suggest to keybind everything
22. I suggest to turn ON auto loot in the options (you just spam “F” when you zerg instead of looting every corpse)
23. You can adjust your mouse turning speed with the slider in the options.
24. EXPLORE EVERYTHING. I found an awesome jumping puzzle yesterday in Lion’s Arch. A dead pirate was messing with me all the time.
25. #1 ability is your auto-attack, so you don’t need to keep spamming it like I did…
26. Adjust your Camera rotation speed to very high to remove that sluggish feeling when you mouse turn
27. You don’t need the bank to access your bank items. Any crafting stations come with bank slots.
28. There are no mail boxes. You can send items away with a right-click, and collect them through upper menu bar.
29. There is a range indicator on your abilities. There’s a red bar below the skill if you’re out of range.
30. You can do every single crafting profession in the game. You can have two active at a time. It costs some coin to switch them out and the fee depends on how many recipes you have. You don’t lose the recipes you have when you switch.
31. DON’T pass up on a harvesting spot. It literally takes 2 seconds, it’s free XP, and you never know if you’ll want to take up a profession that uses it later… you can also sell the raw mats when the TP is up.
32. If you’re getting into areas with mobs that are too difficult, but you’ve done all the other events in that zone (happened to me around level 20), check out the other races’ areas! You get scaled down to match the levels in those zones and can do all of their quests and events while still earning XP and Gear to match your own level!
33. you don’t need to be there when an event ends in order to get credit for it..
34. stick around after a dynamic event, some npc’s turn into karma vendors, (just like haert vendors often do)
35. if you’re being chased by a ranged monster, you can use another monster(a neutral one like a boar would work well) to block the bullets, thereby angering the neutral monster and causing a fight between the two, letting you escape more easily
36. You can redye your armor on your hero page absolutely free.
37. You can /kneel in front of statues and idols to receive some short-term boons.
