If you check the prices of normal versus fast, normal is cheaper.

Rolling totals tell you the prices to each stage starting from the beginning, but not everyone is going to be starting from zero.

[For example: normal jewelcrafting
Tier 5. Levels 300-400
Cost: 3.42.91 gold (Rolling Total: 9.86.04 gold)]

Let’s say you didn’t start using this guide until you were already level 300. It will cost you 3.42.91 gold to get to level 400. To get to level 400 starting from level zero will cost you 9.86.04 gold.

Subtotals also let you plan out your expenses for each stage so you don’t have to do it all in one go.

What is going on with Harvesting Nodes?

So, with the new ‘megaserver’, say goodbye to this altogether?
I have used this as a legitimate way to make money in-game for over a year now.

I’m guessing anet wants more ppl flipping the TP for gold?

It may still be possible. Maps will have less chance to despawn because there will be more players per map after the merge.

That’s distinctly possible. The apps showing the layouts of different servers may no longer be possible though if they are going to be condensed down to a few severs. And it sounds like you don’t be able to select one map that has a good layout but will get whatever map the computer puts you on.

crimson mask Why not put it in PVP locker?

Probably because the PvP locker will be removed on the 15th so they didn’t bother to update it. After the 15th there will be just one locker, for both PvE and PvP, and it will go in there.

Then you need to contact support if you think it’s mistaken. Top of page-support, then top of page-submit a request.

Also, the bans/suspensions don’t come from what you are doing right at that time but from actions in the past that were reported or caught by ANet’s computers. Each report has to go to someone who is already working on other reports. They have to get to it after doing the reports before yours then review it then make a decision. Depending on how busy they are it could be hours to days from initial report to ban.

It will probably just be SAB World 3, although I hope that I am wrong.

I never really liked that tbh.
I miss all the shenanigans anet would pull on us in Guild Wars 1. I don’t know why they decided to change their minds on the tradition of messing with the players.

How about giant bobble heads on everyone. Would that count toward the tradition of messing with the players?

Desactivated profession question

Astral Projections.7320

Uhm…You can see what professions you have and at what level in your Hero Panel: Crafting. There is a drop list if you have more than one learned. No cost, no need to go anywhere.

I’ll have to check that. I know it shows the 2 active ones. I was unaware that it showed the inactive ones also as it’s never given me the option to see more then those 2.

While there is a collection expander in the gem store, the regular stack max in collections is 250 of something. You can either sell it or craft copper or bronze bars, or move it over to regular inventory on the other tab, or make a personal guild and get enough influence to get a vault and use that for storage of non account/soul bound items.

April Fools Speculations

I do miss the joke skills that the wiki had for April Fool’s in GW1. I don’t think we’ll see the same from Anet this year, as it’s a different Anet that brought out GW1-style April Fool’s and are a bunch of humourless kittens.

Last year they had SAB as their joke, so they were kind of let off the hook.

They do seem to have lost that touch of lightness, of humor. I guess making MMOs is serious bizzness. No joking around here.

C’mon ANet. Give us some laughs.

Reset happens at 5pm server time. To find the server time go into options, general options, to ingame clock, change to server time.

Server time is Pacific Time in the USA, the region where ANet is based. As to why it’s 5pm PT and not midnight PT? Who knows.

What is going on with Harvesting Nodes?

in Crafting

Posted by: Astral Projections.7320

Astral Projections.7320

Before this ‘change’, Frostgorge AND Orr node locations only changed if there was an update/patch/ninja patch or maintenance. Period. Been doing this for a year & a half every single day, on multiple 80’s.

The maps, after all, are instances. When all the people leave the instance, the instance disappears. When someone enters the instance then it reappears and the nodes are set into their new spots.

I can think of 3 possible reasons for this suddenly happening.
1) low general population.
2) lower amount of farming in FG and Orr. People are making money somewhere else.
3) guesting. People are looking the mats with the best layouts and going there to farm. Leaving the other maps to empty out.

Can I store skins on Wardrobe?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Astral Projections.7320

Astral Projections.7320

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/introducing-the-wardrobe-system/
“For the Wardrobe, we’ve changed skins to an account-wide unlock system. Skins can be unlocked by using consumables, equipping items, salvaging equipment, or right-clicking on equipment and account-binding it. Items that you acquire that are already bound to your account automatically unlock their skin when they go into your inventory. Unlocked skins can be applied to items infinitely (for just one Transmutation Charge), which makes it much less stressful to try out a new look for your character, since you can always switch back!”

It says they go into your wardrobe if you equip, salvage, or right click and account bind, which means for free.

Is there a reason you can’t afford such a small fee to travel…?
It’s like a few silver at most >.>

A few silver is no small fee. I can’t even count how many times I have died and was forced to log out and back in as I did not have the silver to revive at a waypoint. And don’t even say “but the nearest waypoint is free when you die.” It’s not free if the nearest waypoint is contested and you are forced to choose a waypoint farther away.

I’ve stopped using waypoints. I now walk (yes, I walk. I don’t run.) from zone to zone and forsake all forms of fast travel whenever possible.

Question. I thought if you died and logged out, you would still be dead when you logged back in. One time my warrior died and I logged out. She was still dead when I logged back in the next day. (She fell off a cliff in the Straits of Devastation, surrounded by contested waypoints). >.> Unless it’s because you don’t even have one silver in your account?

I die and can’t WP because I’m too poor to pay and the nearest WP is contested. I log out, log back in and am very much alive and standing in my racial capital city. Often, I have only copper and nothing more in my wallet. I don’t know the game mechanics involved but I do know that it works. I’ve done it numerous times as I had no other choice but to sit and wait indefinitely for some player to come along and revive me.

I see. It must be one of the game mechanics to let you log back in alive if you don’t even have enough to pay for a waypoint in your account. Maybe keep enough for a few waypoints in your account, maybe one gold, or ask a guildie for a loan instead of the long run or waiting for a helpful stranger is an option? It’s hard to believe that there is someone who has played the game for very long and has made only a few copper. If your money is tied up in the trading post for example, your decision to not even have 10 silver for daily expenses in inventory is a decision, not a problem with the game mechanics.

I don’t join guilds. I don’t run fractals or other group dungeons. I spend most of my game time wandering aimlessly around Tyria, living in the moment.

I see that you have been posting on the forum for 11 months now. I assume you have been playing at least some of this time. In all the time you’ve been playing you still don’t have more than a few copper in inventory? You don’t harvest anything? Sell the loot from kills? I don’t run fractals or dungeons either and I’m not so dirt poor that I can’t afford a waypoint. Just selling the drops is more than sufficient to pay for daily expenses. I’m sorry, but your story so far isn’t making sense to me.

If you are playing but not harvesting to recoup expenses or selling loot, then that’s a decision you made, not a problem with the game mechanics.

Desactivated profession question

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Astral Projections.7320

Astral Projections.7320

I know a roundabout way. Go to the crafting NPCs who changes your crafting profession and get the dialog to change to that one. Look at the cost to change. If it costs 40 silver to get it then you know you have that one maxed out. By looking at the cost you can calculate how far you are in that profession. You don’t need to accept the change. You can then write down which character has which and at what level once you figure it out.

It’s a bit of a pain since you have to check each NPC but it doesn’t cost you anything but time to do so.

There are several TTS guilds which specialize in killing Teq. I’m not a member of one so can’t give you any member names.

The new LA is Vigils keep. It’s in the top right of Gendarren Field. There you can find the services, including the portals, except for crafting. For crafting you will need to go to a racial city. To get to Vigils you can go to the PvP area and take what is still named the Lions Arch portal.

The activities are at Vigil also. Head south towards the red circle on the minimap. There are crossed flags showing where the activities NPC is standing.

I’ve been getting them frequently lately. It’s all the same site as they all say at the end, Hace a good day, even though they are each from a different account. I was wondering if they are targeting people through the Leaderboard. They can see not only the high AP people but can also see the accounts which log on frequently and can use this information to pick out the active accounts.

It’s NOT from the leaderboards as I don’t even know what the leaderboards are(LOL), so, I must be #0 on them(again LOL).

Well, it’s wouldn’t be if you know where the leaderboard is, but if they do.

Absolutely, not only that I’d like to equip Sheevas in my weapon slots.

hey she has 4 arms big boobs and 4 shoulders you can than equip it all , so there for does it not seem the way forward to have two greatswords boobs swords/pistol and then the shoulder pads to boot she would be invincible
