If you havent used the skin yet, the first question when double clicking it is if you want to sue it for PvE or PvP. You pick then PvP and it will be turned into a pvp back item.

If you allready transfered the skin to a PvE back item, then this proces can’t be undone (without destroying the skin) and the item is not available in in PvP for you.

thanks ! But I was very sad, why not like achievement weapons. .

They said in an interview, they are looking at this. So, one day may be…

Even if you can’t log in here you can still contact support. And you can talk to them thru the email they will send you.

Did you contact support by making a ticket. If not, go to the support tab at the top of the page then go to “ask a question” and fill out a ticket. Anything you don’t know, put down unknown in that spot. They should be able to help with security questions.

As for help in this thread, It’s also late at night in the US. The ANet staff has gone home. Try waiting till tomorrow. Someone may be able to help you then. Or a forum poster might be still up. I’m afraid I don’t know enough about computers to help.

You might consider making a thread in a different forum. Perhaps the Players helping players forum. Someone there might be able to help.

Just to check, when you try to log on in the game are you using your email or your display name? It need to be your email. The login for the game and for the forum are the same.

It’s for rare, emergency type use. Someplace you don’t want to waypoint out of for some reason.

Maybe the old Tequatl with the old loot in the usual place and the new Tequatl in an instance with improved loot.

Lol. You might want to preview your posts before hitting accept. The forum filter has its moments.

The NPC outfits are not available to players. What is currently available is what you can see in the PvP locker (one outfit is PvP only) and items from the gem store.

I believe he means “Public Service Announcement”. As in “Swapping weapons is great everyone should try it and here is why!”

Or maybe an announcement in chat. “Hey everyone, I’m going to switch weapons now. BE READY!” That’s an PSA also. ^^

Imo the Karka Queen event cycles way to fast. The speed in which it reappears is way higher than the interest in it, in other words, supply exceeds demand. Maybe if the event only showed up 2 or 3 times a week on a set schedule and if its done the settlements stay clear until a half hour to an hour before it starts. This would bing the area closer in line, in terms of difficulty, to the other areas and there would still be a consequence to failing it as the settlements would be contested.

The only two differences between dulfy and the rest of the playerbase are:

- the intelligence to figure what clues mean
- the persistence to hunt for the solution

And access to test server.

And a fourth difference. Large numbers of people sending her the information. No one actually believes she does this all by herself do they?

Considering the number of people she tends to thank in each guide…. her doing it all on her own never crossed my mind…

From the remarks some people have made, they think she figures it out all by her lonesome. No help at all. No life either for that matter since she can get these guides out after each patch without fail.

There is a killer rabbit in game already. It’s in Fractals.

Ohhhh. So is that why the people coming out of fractals walk like their armor is a touch clammy? ^^

Try this site. You might not be able to do exactly as it suggests, but it will give you an idea as to what to do. For example, at level 375 it suggests discovering and then making major sigils of corruption. So just discovering that or something similar should do it.

Ow. O.o

I’ll probably just skip the armor and slowly work on my weapons. With 8 level 80s and full or almost full sets of weapons on each, this alone should keep me mindlessly occupied for years. If I’m still playing the game at that point, I’ll look into armor.

Hi guys, what do I need to do to craft Iron armor/ weapons? Thanks in advance

There are several crafting professions that use iron (weaponsmith, huntsman, articifer, and armorsmith) in crafting armor and weapons.

1: please do not bump suggestions. The team has said they read everything, but never comment. you only make them not see other peoples suggestions and that is in my opinion rude.
2: ingame the option is there, you only need to use it
3: at the start of the game they where working on a mobile app. It seems that this project currently has been abandoned.

I do believe he bumped because this is a 10 month old thread he found and he wanted to bring more attention to it so he necro’d an old thread rather than making a new one.

I have no clue what you are talking about. ^^

What’s a PSA? Which profession(s) and which combos are you referring to?

If they put this in the game they will have to put in the killer rabbit. It will make you wet your armor and be all embarrassed.

Thanks for the answers but ill wait for someone from Anet to answer.

All they will do is tell you to file a ticket with support.

Don’t expect to make a thread like this in a forum and expect a definitive answer from ANet in the thread. That’s not how they do things.

I’ve tried it maybe 4 times. Two disorganized attempts and two organized. All failed. The zergball falls apart from multiple people dying/getting downed and it goes downhill from there. People not waypointing out when dead in spite of numerous instructions to do so. Turrets not cleansing areas around the zerg. Bonewalls coming up repeatedly. Too many clueless people. I haven’t seen this event get past the first stage.

I’ve done these 4 attempts. I’m done for a while.

I tried finding the dragon teeth in Sparkfly without using Dulfy. Did about 3 and decided, meh, this is boring. Running around holding down the ‘highlight enemies’ button is not engaging content imo. Pulled up Dulfy, got it done and then when off to do something fun.

It’s ok they give us easy and boring stuff as long as they mix in harder, more interesting content. But don’t expect people to do the boring checklist content without a guide.

I used to roam there a bit. The karka queen thing killed it for me. All the outposts are permanently overrun on my server, which means those areas are permanently closed off. And even if a group were to clear the event, the outposts close again within a minute. So there is little to no chance to see these outposts. There aren’t any mats there you cant get elsewhere without less annoyance. Most people go there now for ori and ancient wood runs only. Just a quick run through and leave.

At the very least, the outposts should scale so they are soloable. I tried to clear one once. I tried pulling one mob at the edge but attracted the attention of several, including a couple of veterans and had to run off. And when the outposts do clear, they should stay cleared for several hours not several seconds.

I use a Razer Naga and have target drops. It is especially annoying with something like the Scarlet Invasion. I would use a utility skill with a long cooldown, like signet of spite, and suddenly I’m targeting another player and the skill was wasted. :/

In my case, I suspect it’s because I am keeping my mouse over the target area in case I want to do a ground targeted skill. I think this sometimes causes the target to switch, that a player moves under the mouse pointer and when I hit the skill it switches target to them.

Nretep.2564:

Enable it in your chat log and you see when they login or log out.

Yep. Enable game messages. Everytime someone on your friends list logs in or out, it will show up in chat.

The glowing eyes are a headpiece. So make a new character, then buy a low level, cheap, white, light armor headpiece. Transmute the skin of the glowing eyes to that, to break the soulbinding. Then put it in the bank for the other character to pick it up. That character then transmutes it to his headpiece.

I have one. The rest I will probably eventually get 100% PvE. I may, some year, finish the WvW areas on the others. When I get time after doing my daily and farming for ascended mats which includes ori, ancient wood, dragonite and empyreal runs.

Was it before or after reset? It is only once a day so if it was before reset and you had already done it, it won’t count.

Tequatl, meet the Karka Queen. Your future contender for the title “Least done event on your server”.

For future reference, it can take up to half an hour.

Mister zeeRo.8561:

thanks for the swift answers guys.

where exactly can i find this “account restoration” tab ?

I did : Support => ask a question => account hacked => explained what i just explained in my original post.

are those the correct steps to take in order to reach the customer support area ?

Generally you just update the original ticket and ask for an account restoration.

You should be able to select the jewel. Try switching the positions of the items (for example, if you have the Fervid Censer in the right hand slot move it to the left hand slot. Sometimes the transmute thing bugs out). Otherwise you probably just have to try it and see what happens.

This happened to a guildie. He said Cursed Shore was fogged up for him on his main character. I’ve seen other older threads saying this happened to them.

That’s really an odd spot to have a guild kick. If you are partied up with them, that’s not the time to kick them from the guild.

The backpieces are in the jewelry slots and those slots don’t have dye channels. Armor was designed from the ground up to have dye channels. For backpieces to have dye channels, they would have to be completely redesigned. This would mean a reworking of the whole area. I doubt ANet has the time right now to spend reworking this area then ironing out the bugs when there are so many other things they are working on.

They have talked about Legendary jewelry in the future, which may have an aura. That will probably be their focus rather than dye channels.

ANet is a business. It exists to make money through making and maintaining a video game. One of these ways is to sell items in their cash shop, which includes keys, which are probably one of their big money makers. Now, they allow people to get keys for free by using ingame money or doing key runs. And they have the very rare key drop or keys from area completion. That’s as far as their generosity needs to go and it’s much further than it needs to be. They didn’t have to allow any way to get free keys. So, if you want free keys, use gold or do key runs but don’t expect the game to drop them in your lap.

TL:DR
They are a business trying to make money, not a charity handing out freebies.

If they don’t want to do the animation for the offhand, instead of having the arm dangling by your side, which looks strange like your arm is broken or something, they should have the arm raised and bent in a ready position. Ready to block or strike. It would be more aesthetically pleasing that way.

Vayne.8563:

I only recently noticed that when ettins summon wurms, they use friendly rabbits first. They put the friendly rabbit on the ground and bait the wurm to the surface. Hmmm, might be jotuns instead of ettins but you get the idea.

Lol. I always thought the rabbits turned into wurms somehow. I didn’t realize the wurms were coming up in response to the rabbits.

Really want Mordremoth introduced and the corrupted jungle revealed. Don’t mind if we don’t get to fight him/her, but would love to see his/her corruption and champion!

Do Elder dragons even have a gender? I don’t think creatures of magic have any kind of bodyparts that indicate the gender.

Check for lipstick and eyeliner/mascara.

I thought Scarlet would be getting exposure once every 6 months, not every second month. Does anyone actually like her?

Her mommy and daddy like her. That’s two people. And the ANet staff, that’s 300, for a total of 302 people.

Being sylvari, I don’t think she has a mommy and daddy. So make that 300. Though I’ll bet there are more than a few at Anet who don’t like her but are afraid to speak up.

OMG that’s right! (Scratches 2 names off her list).

I use a Razer Naga. All the skills are on the mouse, which I hit with my right thumb and the movement keys are on the keyboard (left hand). The dodge button is on the 3rd mouse button as my finger rests on it naturally. This setup keeps you from doing twister with your fingers while playing.

Guhracie.3419:

The thing about dyes is my own neurosis, and was meant to be lighthearted- the bit about not identifying them. However, I’d like it if the chests had a “quality” filter- masterwork or higher. They already have unidentified hues in the game, so quality shouldn’t be hard to program in.

That said, as far as I know, there are currently no skins available at 10 scraps. Given that my preference is currently for the skins at 5 tickets, with some of the sclerite pieces following, the minimum I need is 30 scraps. This may change in the next two weeks, but that’s hardly my point.

My point is that the risk/reward for chests is ridiculously unbalanced. Thus, I’m not buying any more keys. I’ll settle for the ones I get from personal story/exploration/drops. I’m not asking for ascended weapons or anything that would make the game buy-to-win. I just feel like the chests should be more rewarding than they are. Nothing you say will make me feel otherwise, because we have the same data.

Well I won’t actually argue (too much ^^) about the risk/reward being unbalanced. I do key runs occasionally in order to get tickets or ticket scraps for future weapon skins I might want. Other than that, there is nothing of real value for the money in them.

mercury ranique.2170:

What part??
You get a reward for 100% map completion on each character. this reward is a star next to your name and two gifts of exploration. If it is your first character you also get the title been there done that.
So with 5 characters that done 100% world exploration you get 10 gifts of exploration.
It happens that the reward isn’t rewarded till you re-enter the chantry of secrets this is a known bug.

I truly don’t see what you don’t understand. but feel free to ask more direct questions and I do my best to answer them

I think he is confused on the part where you said, “and gives you the rewards again” (when entering the Chantry of Secrets). This sounds like you get a reward then go to the Chantry and get it again. ^^

mercury ranique.2170:

Hi Astral, can you please share your source.
The first 3 points are clearly called that they are a reward for linking accounts. No HoM or EoTN needed. My storage account (factions only) clearly shows 3 points in the calculator, Is the calculator misleading me??
How about the pre-searing titles?? Those are rewards you can link without owning EotN, cause there are 5, there are also 5 points in total (3 for account linking, 1 for for first statue, and 1 for 5th status) that you can claim without EotN.
I had a lot of debate bout this and I would be really dissapointed in Anet if the unlocked points (according to the calculator on their website) would not be available. I also haven’t seen proof it would not be. So proof pls

The quotes I showed are directly from the site listed on my post. You will have 3 points shown regardless whether or not you have EOTN but you can’t actually get the rewards for it unless you meet the requirements. As the site said, you need both the EOTN campaign and to have unlocked the HoM.

Here is the site again. http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Hall_of_monuments

From that site:

Link to Guild Wars 2
How to
According to Guild Wars 2 developers, you will have the option of “Declaring your ancestor” to receive the Hall of Monuments rewards by linking your Guild Wars 2 game account with one Guild Wars game account.¹
You will be able to link a single Guild Wars game account to your Guild Wars 2 game account at any time after creating your Guild Wars 2 account.
Only accounts with the Eye of the North expansion and who have unlocked the Hall of Monuments are eligible for rewards.
After using the item, you will visit the Guild Wars 2 version of the Hall of Monuments, where you can claim your rewards.
This Hall of Monuments can be visited by any Guild Wars 2 character and as often as you like.

Guhracie.3419:

No, my point is that I’m not going to spend any more money on keys because none of that is even remotely interesting to me. I’m not going to open chests until I get 50 scraps. That’s just not appealing. The skins are nice, but the risk/reward for scraps?

Also, don’t ID the dyes? Are you out of your mind? O_o

10 scraps for a current weapon skin, not 50. And as you said, ID dyes are typically 70c. Sell them for 20 silver each and buy the ones you want, which would be about 28 dyes for each unid sold.

They fly underwater to give you mail also. I’ve also noticed that non mail birds fly underwater also. While waiting for an underwater champion spawn in Frostgorge, there are these birds that repeatedly fly by underwater in a circuit.

It’s worse than you think. With the friends tool someone can be informed whenever you log in or out through a message in chat and can see what map you are in, even if you log on as invisible.

That doesn’t seem very invisible.

If you have someone listed as a friend and enable game messages, it will tell you in chat. It will say something like, JustTrogdor.7892 is online. It will tell you this before they select invisible. Then you can check the friends list. If they leave a map and go to another, the map name will change even if they are ‘invisible’.

It’s worse than you think. With the friends tool someone can be informed whenever you log in or out through a message in chat and can see what map you are in, even if you log on as invisible. Whether or not you have this person blocked is irrelevant to the friends tool.
