Remove WvW From Map Completion

in Suggestions

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

I know this is a broken record at this point, but seriously, remove WvW from getting 100% PvE map completion. You don’t need the sPvP areas or even Southsun Cove for map completion so why do we need WvW?

WvW is for many people litterally impossible to get since areas are locked off by competent servers. Either remove WvW from Map Completion or allow us to get it regardless of who owns what.

Menders Purity + Prayer to Dwayna Broken

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

The Mesmer trait Mender’s Purity (Vitality IV: Remove a condition when you heal.) does not work when using the Human Racial Healing skill Prayer to Dwayna.

I have tested and it works fine with Ether Feast, Mirror and Mantra of Healing, but not Prayer to Dwayna.

Seems out of place especially since Prayer to Dwayna is the best heal for a Human Mesmer.

Lost my serialcode

I’ve tried twice to get my serial code from support and twice they have ignored my request.
You can convince them to reset your password though. They once even reset my password without me even asking them to do so (which is kind of disconcerting, meaning that anyone can just ask for a reset without the code).

They can’t comment on macros, if they did, then the floodgates open to people asking for allowed macros and it never ends, nor is it clear where to draw the line.

I thought so as well, but after multiple attempts at restating the party with various combinations of client restarts in-between, I concluded this was unlikely.

[BUG] Can't join for missions in Div Reach

in Personal Story

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

Are you both in the same map/instance? You have to be in the same map to receive the invite.

Yes. We’re both standing right outside the entrance to Salma district, within Divinities Reach, even on the same server (Jade Quarry). Happens when trying to enter the Seraph HQ too, but NOT when entering story instances within Queensdale.

I haven’t had a chance to test it in other cities, but I will in a sec.

Edit: Just tested Black Citadel. Hero’s Canton instance there works fine. Seems it’s just Divinities Reach that is broken

Edit 2: Went and re-tested Divinities Reach, just in case it was a fluke. Same issue, party members standing right next to me do not get a prompt to join, while they did get one pre-patch and still get them in Queensdale.

Edit 3.14: Tested two more times. Definitely broken.

As stated, whenever I try and start a story mission with a friend in Divinities reach (specifically salma district and the seraph headquarters) it doesn’t pop up the dialoge box to allow them to join. Missions in Queensdale work fine. It worked pre-patch, so why not now?

Jade Maw Stealth Changes

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

Glad that they added fixes for all that. Its not a big deal that you can still get behind the Jade Maw, but at least you have to fight your way there now first.

The Svanir Shaman safe spot was indeed kinda silly, glad they fixed that.

Its not the fixes that annoy us, it’s the fact they are stealth changing it. It doesn’t foster trust.

Jade Maw Stealth Changes

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

So, as you may or may not know, the Jade Maw map was changed to add a big chunk of jade to the space on the left where you could jump up to get behind the maw’s face to hit the right had tentacle without agroing them mobs.

However, you can still jump up the slope to the far left of this new chunk and still get behind. It’s like they didn’t bother to test that the fix worked.

So, stealth fixes and ones that don’t even work. Do you bother testing?

Guild Rushes > Officer only activate option

Three times now we’ve had people start a rush or challenge after being asked not too. We have people merc in as it were to help so it’s impossible to tell who kittened it up.

Can we have a guild option that will only allow those with the correct privlige to activate a challenge? After all, normal members cant build them or activate them so why can they start them?

Improve and fix "special" bags

For example, the Fractal Relic Rare box. Can you please make it so:

2) They allow Non Rares to compact to lower bags.
3) Allow us to toggle their special abilities on or off (Though I don’t think this will happen as it makes the normal bags pointless).

Allow us to Guest WvW for Gems

in WvW

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

Why not allow players to be mercenaries for different worlds? Make it so it’s, say, 300 gems for a Mercenary Licence, which will allow you to access a servers WvW as a guest for 24 hours. Maybe make it so it can only be used on a server that came 2nd or 3rd on the weeks reset? Or make it so that you need to use two licences for a 2nd place server and one for a 3rd place.

Not only would this help weaker worlds, it would help map completion!

How much precision for 30% crit chance

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

IMO 55% is the sweet spot (or 50%+ the 5% sigil). That way you crit more than half the time and 3/4 of the time with fury.

Can we PLEASE rotate the colours more?

Posted by: BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542

Interestingly enough we just were discussing this with Habib, master of all things WvW and I think we will do this soon, if it is as easy to do as we hope. It will just make things a little more interesting.

TYVM For the reply!

As it stands, the server I am on (Jade Quaggan) is always first. We always, ALWAYS win (the one time we didn’t was because of an exploit!) and as such we are always Green. This makes WvW Map completion very difficult to get. Can we please just have the colour randomized?

So wait you ALWAYS win but are incapable of taking other servers garrisons/keeps/towers to get your completion ?!?!?!?

Not everyone can afford to be on 28 hours a day to grab the keep in the 4 seconds before it’s retaken.

Or consider a new strategy.

There is no way of doing the control panel without you being hit, there is no way to survive on the buttons long enough to distract them from the panel person.

The whole game is based on dodging but then punishes you for dodging by closing the door.

Apparently you can get them form Guild Missions too, BUT they will take approximately the same amount of time…

They really need to back off the laurel/time limited currency.

It takes 1 week for the one time unlock, and 1 week to get the tokens for 1 piece, so it’s roughly 2-3 pieces per month. It doesn’t even go close the op’s 16 months.

And… if you were able to get all the stuff on all your chars in just 2 weeks. Then you’d complain you have nothing to do…
Bah

Unless you can’t get the guild ones because your guild doesn’t zerg WvW 28 hours a day.

Ascended accessories can also be purchased for 5g and 12 guild commendations. For comparison, the laurel version is 18.5g (50 ectos) and 40 laurels.

Wait, where can you buy these? And guild commendations?

Edit: Oh, I see, you don’t need to fight the RNG. Interesting. In any case, you still need to do an absurd number of guild missions which smaller guilds like mine litteraly cannot hope to start or finish.

Even if I only wanted two, it still takes two months of NEVER MISSING A SINGLE DAILY with zero way for me to speed it up (since my guild is small and thus unable to do the missions because they are idiotic to unlock, and even then you have to fight the RNG for the rings).

Dungeon Mechanics: Res Rushing

I absolutely disagree with this.

The skills you listed are garbage and almost completely worthless in dungeons in my experience.

Hey now.
Battle Standard is amazing! 2 Second AoE BattleRes Blast Finisher that gives everyone fury and might for 65 seconds. How can you not love that? It also recharges far faster than most other battle reses, even moreso if you trait for it.

Yes, signet of rage gives you more Might and Fury, but being able to spread out furymight to 5 people instead of 1 is awesome.

The mobs shouldn’t leash in instances, dunno why they designed them to. They are encouraging this behavior.

Players will simply use stealth.

Exactly. It’ll go from “LFG 4 WARRIORS UBER QUICK RUN SKIPPING EVERYTHING” to “LFG 3 WARRIORS AND A THEIF UBER QUICK RUN SKIPPING EVERYTHING MUST HAVE SHADOW REFUGE”.

Short of making stealth unusable in dungeons, nothing they can do really. Perhaps if they made it so killing mobs was worth it, skipping wouldn’t be a problem.
