Guild Wars 2

I see why they are dropping, I got bad info about Chaos skins going off 1 ticket today. No wonder it seems everyone has a Chaos skinned weapon.

So it displays X max based on quality filter? That’s annoying.

2nd shelf next to the peanut butter.

If you don’t select any bag you should see what’s in all of them by default. Wait are you opening from your inventory rather than O?

Did you check processes. It doesn’t have a window per se so you won’t see it under applications.

When I first started I thought it was kind of cool that I could quickly unlock all 5 weapon skills and then I cycled through each weapon my prof could have until I unlocked them all.

Now it’s the other way around. Each skill is unlocked for all weapons at the same time but now you’re stuck behind a level gate for each. Don’t know which way is faster. Don’t remember what level I was when I unlocked Skill 5 on my first weapon but it probably was well before Level 10. All weapons? Don’t know.

Dang, should have sold those skins as soon as I got them last night or just after the patch went live. Prices down at least 20%.

One month, try 2 days. I think it’s a fixed number of items that get fetched and filtered from there.

I’m…not sure what you’re talking about, Behellagh. I think you might be misunderstanding me. :\

I’m quoting that blog post to indicate that it said nothing about rearranging sequences. (Assuming the Fear storyline hasn’t been removed, and has just been shuffled / lost in the journal.)

Oh sorry then, thought you were complaining about the story/chapter in general and somehow utterly misunderstood the blog post.

Now I’ve never done the PS at those levels yet but does this dev post help at all?

Well that’s a bug. Report it.

Redenaz.8631:

This is bizarre. Let’s see what the blog posts had to say about the Personal Story:

Blog Post

Personal Story

As another addition with the level-up guide, we’re updating the personal story steps using our new Story Journal so they come in story chunks that unlock all at once per chapter. When a story chapter is unlocked as a level-up reward, you’ll be able to play straight through the entire chapter from start to finish and not have any awkward starts and stops that throw off the storyline. In this way, story chapters become another big moment to look forward to earning and unlocking as your character levels up.

We’ve also taken this opportunity to go back and reevaluate the rewards of each of the major story chapters. We’ve done some pretty major overhauls to make the rewards for completing chapters feel much more compelling than they were in the past. Personal story chapters will absolutely be worth completing for your character as you progress. Similar to level-up rewards, we won’t be able to retroactively apply these to current level 80 characters, but all future characters you create or level up to 80 will benefit from this system.

Given that we had multiple weeks of update previews, most of which felt very minor, I see no reason why this should be coming as a surprise or lack any sort of explanation. I’m open to improvements to the Personal Story, but a little explanation would be appreciated, rather than just springing changes on us that seem to make it worse.

Even if I disagree with a decision, I’d at least like some indication that it’s had thought put into it. I just have no idea what’s going on now.

-throws hands in air-

But it’s not a surprise, they clearly stated what they were doing in the blog post. 1) Break into Chapters. 2) All stories in the chapter unlock at the same time.

What did you think? That the first chapter was going to unlock at Level 1 with all stories doable by a level 1? No, last story was level 10 so whole chapter unlocks at level 10.

But is it cutoff in wardrobe preview as well?

This is the dev post I’ve seen.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Did-I-loose-my-story-progression/first#post4383909

Okay then someone needs to fix the wiki unless it’s those levels are when they first tell the player about them. In which case they aren’t locked.

Have you tried different UI size settings? Maybe they missed a preview instance in terms of UI scaling. How’s preview?

Cut or moved? I’m seeing posts saying it was moved.

Some are upset they couldn’t buy items for collections before the price spike. Some think others are profiteering off of it because they “knew” what to stock up on weeks in advance.

Then maybe they don’t introduce salvage to a player until 12. But if you know about it …

So what’s up with Copper-Fed then? It’ll be a couple of hours until I can test it.

UI scaling works now. I wish they made TP UI scaling a separate setting.

The level chart in the wiki says crude kits unlock at 12. Gathering unlocks at 9.

Someone was screaming on the forum that they couldn’t use their copper-fed kit until they were 15.

And I think it’s Alienware throwing money at ANet to add it.

Arrows are optional, scroll wheel still works in those fields. Interface layout I think is sized to fit at UI small on a 1024×768 or 1280×720 resolution.

You can’t salvage anything till level 12 anyways.

Glov.5342:

also note that the DOWNED SKILLS are LOCKED

so are skills for UNDERWATE COMBAT. You have only the #1 until roughly lvl ~8.

I had plans on getting all classes to 80, but there’s no way I’m touching a char pre-40 in a very, very long time.

Salvage is locked until level 12 and basic kits and better at 15, including the copper-fed salvage kit. Gathering is locked until level 9.

I looked up the one item which is part of a collection that I have on my current character that was featured in a youtube video last night. It didn’t move in price or supply until 4 hours before the patch, and then slowly with little price movement but significant supply movement until an hour before the patch when supply dropped far enough to start hitting the silly high prices.

Supply has recovered some and prices are down from their peak but it’s still twice as high as it was yesterday at this time. So I didn’t see a long lead time of “insider buying” and it pretty much aligned to after the info appeared online.

The thing is it doesn’t matter. However they release it, put it on the wiki the day before for all to see, some players will still be asleep, in class, at work and wouldn’t be able to act on it until after the spike already hit. Someone will be peeved off, there isn’t a way to be fair.

I’m not talking about true insider trading. Simply relying on people like Dulfy, Wooden Potatoes and Bog Otter would probably reach more players than posting the info in the news section, the forum or the wiki.

I’m guessing because whites and blues don’t have upgrades to recover so why would you need anything better than crude. And you don’t get that until Level 12.

It’s not that we don’t have them. It’s that some players like leveling from level 1 and now we feel like Ralphie in A Christmas Story.

Use to be you started with skill slots 1 through 6 unlocked at level 1 and skill slots 7, 8, 9 and 0 at level 5, 10, 20 and 30. After level 30 all that was left for you to do was get traits and buying more skills. Your “personal” growth as a character seemed somewhat stagnated.

So now it’s level 13, 24, 35 and 40 for slots 7-0. And that’s to pad out unlocking slots 2 to 5 at various levels as well as underwater skills. And you know what, the “hey look what you just got” is fun … once. After that we know the game mechanics. As it is it makes playing a low level character very difficult and very different than a high level one.

Honestly, unlock the lower limits for players with high level characters. Otherwise I would not be surprised if the number of new characters being rolled by existing players drop even further than what was caused by the trait changes. Nobody likes it when their cheese is moved and you feel like moving it every time you roll out a feature pack.

The more players help them out the quicker it’ll get fixed. Players with this problem have to be active participants in solving this problem. The more that can provide information through support, hopefully they will be able to find the cause or causes.

I think they turned the culling knob up all the way and over the next few days will dial it back as they fully understand the impact on a live server. Sort of the same way they rolled out the megaservers, a bit at a time.

First, if it happened in house when testing they would have caught it.

So it’s something about PCs in the field and that means a possible conflict with other software running. So step one is to get players to test with as few bits of other software running to see if it runs then. Then they can start trying to find what’s in common with what is left running. Which versions of the OS, which drivers running, etc and until they can reproduce in house what’s happening out in the field, they aren’t going to be able to solve it unless by chance.

Please understand that.

At the very least have it on the popup when you mouse hover because sometimes the contrast isn’t good enough to read the number clearly. But it eliminates a column.

Bright side, UI scaling now works with the TP in terms of not being fugly when larger than normal or unreadable (mostly) on small.

Why am I guessing we will be seeing a free trial soon …

Rather err on 1 than auto max but I understand your pain.

Yes, they changed the default price on sale to match low sell rather than high bid. I approve of that change.

Why would you need to click sort by name to sell?

You bring up the TP, go to sell and now you have all the items available to sell. Simply click each icon to pop up the sell dialog. Click sell, it goes away and you can click on the next icon.

Notice you lose the count of items if you are in gnashblade mode. Already upset at least one person who didn’t know where the count went.

chemie banger.9624:

Releasing it to a select few is not the public.

It is if they then turn around and post it.

On the bright side they said they’ve increased the ticket and scrap rate in the BL Chests.

Hahahahaha!

Are there even nodes left in the starting zones anymore?

Well none of us are completely crazy.

I think there should be a toggle between the fees and the gross and net profits. Click on the fees and it switches to profits, click again back to fees. Remember which on was displayed last and default to that. Everyone’s happy, minimal information displayed at once, user choice between the two pairs.

Mystic.5934:

“auto refreshed”, no. but they could do something like push notifications, where the server sends out a signal that there is a new listing to anyone currently viewing it. I imagine this is how the mail and TP pickup notification works.

Same difference.

Southern.8973:

I already miss being able to use my Mouse Wheel to adjust my price (by hovering over the value and spinning the wheel up or down).

That still works. It works on mine.

No, you are in the “IamEvonGnashblade” (or whatever) mode. That’s the trade off, see more items, don’t see quantity. That’s why it’s not a check box. That’s why it’s only semi-official.

He didn’t say there was no farming. Just that the decision to farm is in the hands of the individual player. I don’t farm, I just play. Haven’t had a problem getting anything I wanted.

My Bonette’s Rapier shot up. To bad I have it equipped.

gw2tp stopped updates after 5:58am EDT and came back online at 4:12pm EDT
GW2Spidy stopped after 2:15-2:29pm EDT update and came back at 4:00-4:14pm EDT

Now spidy showed the price starting to move up slightly at 11:30-11:44am EDT update with the first big leap at the 2:15-2:29pm EDT update, up to 49.9997g from 29.5g at the 1:45-1:59 update.

So some acted between the 10:45-10:59am EDT and 11:30-11:45am EDT time frame buying the supply down from 72 to 30 with only a 3.3g increase. The next sample showed supply down to 15 and that was the time the price was 3c shy of 50g. By the time the TP feed came back online, price was over 84g with 11 in supply. Since then supply is back up to 37 with a sell price at 54.5g, roughly doubled.

Last major peak in supply for this weapon was mid July. Supply dropped over the next two weeks to the 70 level. Just a week ago supply was sub 50 with prices around 25.5g. Prices popup up to 29.5g a few days later and fell back to the 26-26.5g level until the patch hit.

Slide rule. People complained that “Projected Profit”, which on the old interface showed what would be in you pickup tab, wasn’t really profit since it didn’t take the posting fee into account. Others complained that it wasn’t clear that the TP took 10% of the sale price as tax. So now they’ve catered to those people by listed both fees and simply let them figure what they want to see out on their own.

Of course this creates a new class of unhappy players who didn’t care about the previous issues but now are missing the pickup amount.

Any minis you have are still in your bank. You must take them out to convert them for the mini tab.

ZudetGambeous.9573:

If Anet is going to let this kind of insider trading continue then they should consider locking all sales on the TP until patches go live.

I shouldn’t need to “know someone” in order to get collections done.

Insider traders: get karma converter for ~300g

Not insider traders: now costs >1000g

For those who don’t know, guides to all collections and what you need were posted last night by people who had “special access” to the patch. All the items used for collections have since been bought out and relisted for 100x the price.

A number of video previews went up over the last day that talked about collections extensively including showing some of the items needed to complete. So for those who subscribe to those youtube channels, they got a head start. Dulfy’s collection guide went up yesterday as well, listing some the items needed.

It’s not like it was secret. Sorry you didn’t get in on at. I didn’t either but I don’t care. I’ll just collect them when they drop. And then sell it for filthy lucre to someone to lazy to find one themselves.

I was under the impression from the PoI video that everything is dynamic now so no refresh is necessary.
