Guild Wars 2

I assume this is for GvG battles to make sure they are even ? might be useful to include why you want it. But yea it could be useful.

BilboBaggins.5620:

I definitely have faith in you and the support staff, but it does concern me that you admit that sometimes innocent transfers get flagged. I am constantly shuttling gold to my wife via mail, 5g here, 15g there. I make she spends, it’s been working for us for 25 years! With me doing this frequently and unidirectionally, am I in increased danger of being accidentally flagged as an rmt?

Well (and I’m not posting this as “fact”, Gaile) if you’ve been constantly sending gold to one other account that’s most likely registered at the same address and possibly even registered to someone with the same surname then I wouldn’t worry I’m sure that kind of pattern will be recognised as being legitimate both by automated systems and by real people.

This wouldn’t happen if there was a public test realm (as well as it would solve other issues).

Just sayin’…

What? No it wouldn’t it would make the problem worse. PTR wouldn’t stop people from making money from changes it would make them more money.

Eh, I’ moved the 5000 dust on to a mule for 1 day while I got a character up to 450 in Huntsman, then just boiled it down to a fraction of a single stack of bricks (with their own new collection tab space).

Either you’re going to craft and the problem will resolve itself, or you won’t craft, and you can toss them.

This only applies to people that farmed champs like no tomorrow before patch.
Dragonite Ore and Empyreal Fragments are way harder to come by on a daily basis and shouldnt be an issue.

Anet recently forfeited alot of potential gem purchases by introducing the account wallet at no cost to ease your bank space.

You’d have a point if the purpose of refining materials is to put them in the bank.

But that’s not the purpose.

The purpose of refining materials is to make the proper components to craft.

I’m sure that the unlimited gathering tools will be “back by popular demand!” now and again. They sell too well for ANet to shelve them permanently. :P

The worst system ever???

Glad to know 4v8 queue would be better in your book.

You start with leavers and folks that dont care, happened to me. Higher rating you get it does not happen anymore

4v5 doesn’t only happen to you, it happens to the opposing team too so in the long run it doesn’t affect your rating. Play more matches and get a bit higher up in rating, you won’t really find people who don’t enter queues or leave games there.

Not saying 4v5 isn’t a problem and they shouldn’t fix it, but saying it’s the reason high level players are on the bottoms of the leaderboards is a lie.

Just got all 3 tribes united, but the fuel is not spawning to start the final phase (escort).

The meta was at the last stage listed on the wiki. “The three tribes have been united against the Flame Legion. The grawl high shaman has joined the fight.” Is anything supposed to happen afterwards?

I can see your point of view, even though it is rooted in such an extreme case of OCD you may beyond help at this point (no offense :P). BUT, this type of stuff happens in video games. Some times there are limited items that few are able to obtain and I don’t really see a problem with it. Sure, you have a blank space in your mini tab, which is a shame for a collector, but is it really the end of the world? You still have all available mini’s, or so I assume. If you think the price is insane on ebay, can you imagine how much gold you would have to pay in game to get it? Surely, you would have to spend an equal, if not more amount on gems to gold as you would just purchasing it off ebay.

Maybe the easiest solution is if anet could prevent that spot from showing in the mini tab unless you enter the code?

Definitely seems to be a shared pick up queue for purchases and sales. All the gold was eventually delivered.

Might not be an issue. Will update when I know for sure but silver is appearing, a few at a time, as I remove purchased items from the pickup window. Seems like there might be a queue for items and gold appearing in the pick up window and I’ve exceeded it.

I was in Mount Maelstrom doing my daily yesterday and an invasion came to Mount Maelstrom. It did in fact notify me across the screen, not just in the chat box.

I have to agree with some of what you’re saying, but disagree with other parts.

The Living Story is a lot of fun if you don’t take it too seriously. It’s not meant to be the whole game. There is an arcing theme of most of it, however, it’s difficult to see.

At this point LS is whole game. Invasions farming, gauntlet farming…Few days ago Claw of Jormag was up 6 hours without anyone touching it. I finished Maw with 4 other guys, four!!! Similar state can be seen across whole world, except zone where invasion is currently.

People asked for better rewards and more rewarding content, they got that. Now the pendulum will inevitably sway back, because ANet can not allow the economy to hyper-inflate and spin out of control. Presumably they set this up, so that when Ascended weapons came it would offset itself in the end… reducing gold generation with MF changes and increasing TP transactions with ascended mats, thus taking more fees and also liquidating lot of earlier tier crafting materials when new mats are created.

If that is not enough they will simply either make the permanent invasions happen only once in a blue moon or nerf the rewards across the board. Really in the end the point of invasions is, I think, an attempt at changing the PvE gameplay more than it is the rewards (rewards are just something they need to keep/get some people interested imo. right now it is working against them though pirates being too lucrative to portals so the event doesn’t even always run its full course)

I personally think people are just too used to expansions. They’re used to having all this content at one time available. So anet tries to do something different than expansions and nobody likes it because it’s not the general way of releasing content.

The LS is still a new system and anet still needs to work out the kinks in it. What players like about it and what players don’t like about it. It’s not fair to say it’s all bad.

As for QA in the updates, it probably makes it easier. Instead of saying you have every nook and cranny of this expansion to test in a month; they say you have every nook and cranny of this short update to test.

I hear a lot of people say the LS is awful, but then I hear most people say they like specific updates. SAB was great, flame and frost was well received, sky pirates was good, I loved the bazaar, people got invested in cutthroat politics, the queens gauntlet was good and challenging, and I like the idea of invasions and the play house was a fun dungeon, even if it wasn’t hard. (Not counting Mad King and Wintersday since they existed before the LS in its proper form but I loved them). After you get though those good updates you realize, those are most of the LS updates. The only ones I didnt list are the two southsun ones, which I didn’t get to participate in for one reason or another so I can’t speak for them.

So if most of the updates are good and well received, how is the living story a bad medium?

Nothing to really whine too loudly about. I was 3/4 through pre-patch, and am again already. This monthly is cake.
