Tried unequipping them and equipping again and it made no difference. I’m on the story step Prisoners of the Dragon. I’m asking the scout at the Itzel Village in VB while the map is at T4 and the Itzel are at “full strength” i.e. all outpost events are completed.

Wrong scout.

Talk to the one where you first enter VB.

thank you, that one worked.

Well that’s BS I dont remember which character has them and they have probably been long overwritten

Another PoHs thread

in WvW

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

While I understand why ArenaNet have made then soulbound they need to introduce another way to spend them. On my main I have all HPs complete, both central Tyria and Heart of Maguuma, and I have enough badges of honor to fund a small army of golems for months, so there’s no point me spending them on anything currently.

Something similar to the Laurel vendor, but with more focus on WvW would be a good place to start, imo.

You don’t need ley line matey for that HP, it’s a common misconception, you only need lean techniques. Yes ley line is needed for the most direct approach, but if you go to the middle wp on the middle lane, and then run East, you can get there with some clever jumping and lean gliding. I’d be happy to show anyone this so that alts aren’t blocked

Honorary Ogre Achievement

legendary armor...

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Totally agree with you, but with one change however.

Keep this legendary tied behind the raids, but then introduce more legendary armours that are tied to non-raid pve, pvp, and wvw respectively

Astralaria III Meteorite Ingot Recipe Bug

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

So I’ve only just crafted The Device, but I’ve been following the bugs for T3 closely, and I’d like some clarification. Before, we had to create 11 meteorite ingots, which would take 55 days due to the requirement of charged quartz. As I understand this as now we only have to wait 5 days to craft 25 ingots? Please correct me if I’m wrong

They could have put the trolling even further and have one of the collections require the success of the same event.

What is the common variable between all revenant builds? Assassin’s stance.

Incorrect, I run Jalis/Herald.

What’s the difference between all Revenants running Shiro and all Elementalists/ Tempests running Fire Magic, or all Warriors/Berserkers running with Quick Hands etc etc?

Raids and Shift work

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

So with working shifts I have found it very hard to break into raids and get anywhere decent, which probably shows ANet have done something well and produced some actual challenging content, not just faceroll easy.

That being said, I can’t be alone in the position where everyone has a preferred team they run with now, so you can’t make headway there, and the PUGs are anarchy.

If you are in the same position, feel free to add me and we can try to get some resemblance of a team together

[BUG] Facets switch themselves off

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

So I’m exploring central tyria on my Rev with the Facets of Light, Elements and Darkness active at all times, not causing energy degen, then all of a sudden they will turn themselves off but without going on cool down. As far I can tell it’s when I discover a new area, so it might have something to do with increasing/decreasing the downscaled level? Roy, any thoughts?

A few bugs I found with the achievements here:

1. Killed all the Chak in the pit but still did not get recognition for the Chak Master achievement.

2. Died multiple times, before 10 kills, yet still got the Chak Expert achievement.

That’s all i’ve found so far….

Screen shot is of empty Chak pit with the achievement still to be rewarded….

PS you can break out of the map and that’s where the screen shot is from

How to summarise the HoT mood

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

Well this mood for HoT is definitely different to what I expected. From what I’ve seen so far you have a few camps:

1. “Errrmaaaguuurd I have to play the game to unlock stuff!?!?”

Did you seriously think buying the expansion would automatically unlock everything for you? If this was the case, you would be back on the forums within an hour of launch saying that HoT was a waste of money.

2. “I assumed all this stuff and now I’m annoyed none of it is true”

Well you know what they say about assuming…..it makes an kitten out of u and me. You’ve only got yourself to blame.

3. “400HP is too high! I demand less!”

They’re called ELITE SPECIALIZATIONS for a reason, not every Tom, kitten and Harry has them. Just look at all those thousands of Lamborghini’s you see everyday……oh yeah you don’t, and that’s why they are considered high end vehicles. Not an exact comparison but close enough for you to get the idea.

4. “I want a refund because XXXXX is not available at launch”

Wouldn’t you rather everything was tested than buggy beyond belief so that you couldn’t complete it? If it was release with a load of bugs you would complain that they didn’t take long enough testing it ask, and say you want a refund for not getting what was promised.

At the end of the day Guild Wars 2 wasn’t exactly a challenging game/never required a long period of effort put into it, so stop complaining that areas of the game are the opposite of that now. If HoT was made easy you would ask be here in 24hrs complaining about that too.

I for one welcome the challenge for getting elite specializations across 13 characters, forging the new legendaries and prepping for raids.

Congratulations CoJo and pals for making a game that challenge the best of is and not just be completed in 3hrs! Hopefully Guild Wars 2: Cogs of War (GW2: CoW) will be just as challenging

Day 1 Revenant: Level 1 or Level 80?

in Revenant

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

Tomes all the way. I have 10 characters at level 80 already, so I know my stuff when it comes to leveling. Plus NPE sucks, so no way am I putting myself through that. As fur learning the class, what do you think I did in betas?

Toming straight to 80 doesn’t remove anything IMO, it just saves me a bell of a lot of time. Yes, comparing my Revenant at 80 vs your Revenant at 80, you would know the class better, as I’ll be 80 about 5 mins after completing the opening story, but say it takes a week for you to get to 80, then I would know more about how Revenant plays in the true zones (level 80 ones)

Mastery order

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

In Heart of Maguuma I’ll be doing Gliding → Bouncing mushrooms → Nuhoch till max → Exalted till max.

My reasoning is from the beta tests I’ve found that gliding and bouncing mushrooms at too useful not to get, and then I want the combat benefits that Nuhoch and Exalted giv, heal skills remove deadly poison and ability to break Mordrem husks to deal more dmg to them. Obviously if the need arises for a higher glider or bouncing level I’ll get those up, but they won’t be my main focus.

As for the rest of Tyria I’ll be smashing through the precursor crafting ones. I’ve been holding off buying Dawn and Dusk since January, when they announced HoT. That’s a long time to have all the stuff for the legendary, but no legendary ????

Solution to Legendary Problem

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Akachi.1352

I like the idea, but maybe restrict it to gen 2 legendaries+, otherwise you’re going to get a load of people who have made 2 gen 1 ones feeling cheated

New legendary weapons look underwhelming.

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

Weak footfalls is not a new thing to Gen 2 legendaries.

Look at Meteorologicus and Howler. The footfalls are minuscule and barely noticeable on my male norn.

What’s worse, Meteorologicus’s footfalls are a copy paste from bolt, except Bolt’s are just cooler.

What’s more, Meteorologics STILL hasn’t had an aura update, and in the case of Howler the footfalls have very short duration.

At least you get footfalls, Flameseeker Prophecies doesn’t have any, and it’s the only gen 1 legendary without them to make it worse.

Back to OP though, I think it’s really horses for courses, as I found then all amazing, then again I am comparing them to FP

As an off hand only weapon it does not have foot step or auras. Same thing goes for The Minstrel (focus) and I believe the torch is the same way.

You can wiki it they give the full details.

Flameseeker Prophecies is only one without footsteps, Minstrel has note footsteps and Rodgort has flame footsteps

How to Improve Mordrem event

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Akachi.1352

Akachi.1352

I’ve only done it twice and hate it already. Here are my ideas to improve it/possible future events like it:

1. Make it failable.
a. Constant Mordrem presence in map if you fail
b. Gain some bonus items if you win

2. Make it a map wide meta, like Dry Top
a. Successfully completed events add to the progress bar
b. 4 tier progress bar: 0, 1, 2, 3
c. 0 gives no reward, 1 gives the bonus 5 blooms, 2 gives the bonus 10 blooms, 3 gives the bonus 15 blooms
d. Fail the event if you fail to reach a 50% completed bar, e.g. if you hit T2 but fail to get 50% of the way to T3 you fail the event
e. Tiers are harder to progress than Dry Top tiers, e.g. possibility of getting T3 is equivalent to getting T5 in Dry Top

3. Keep the event maps closer to Dry Top and Silverwastes
a. Makes no sense having the event in Diessa Plateau when the rest of the world map isn’t affected.

Are there any plans to add PVE methods to obtain Zealot’s gear as well as the other obscure stat combinations such as Forsaken, Captain’s, Apostate’s and Sentinels?

Unlikely as they were part of a limited time event

This is an unforgivable error design by Anet. I keep waiting for them to resolve such errors.

How is it an error? It was a drop from a limited time event, and that event is now over, so rightly so the recipe has been removed from drop tables.
