Pillock, if you want the absolute best examples of post war interaction, you should visit Ebonhawk in the Fields of Ruin. There is a great deal of interaction there between humans and Charr, as well as examples of renegade behavior from both sides.
EotM was never meant to be a balanced map to begin with. It’s meant to be a waiting lobby for people wanting to get into the regular WvW maps. That being said, whether balanced or not, it still has huge farming potential, whatever the match-up. If anything it’s one of the few aspects of WvW that I have no issues with at all.

I’m going to throw something else into this murky mix… Precursor crafting will still have an effect on T6 prices, and for one reason. People will still craft the 1st gen precursors, sell them off, and use the money to buy T6 mats for the legendary weapons they do want. The hoarders may make some money initially, but in the end the market will balance and most likely we’ll still end up paying the same prices for T6 that we always have.
Go to Crossing Waypoint in Queensdale. There are a ton of Moa’s there.
There were no weapons in the aquatic weapon slot.
I did notice that, which didn’t help much from the videos I saw. I was just wondering if anybody had hovered their mouse over the weapon slot to see what should go there.
During the stress test, did anybody happen to hover over the aquatic weapon slot? I know aquatic combat wasn’t available, but I’m curious to know as to what the aquatic weapon/weapons will be.
You do know that this was basically the PAX demo, right? In no way, shape, or form is this going to be the final product. You’re over-reacting to a small stress test before they even get into the full beta.
You guys may want to read this post. The skills weren’t OP, but the difficulty of the combat was toned down. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/hot/Feedback-on-HoT-Stress-Test-merged/page/3#post4915383
Not going to lie, I’m a bit disappointed that after beta testing GW1, then GW2 that a long time customer was not given access to the HoT beta. I won’t lose any sleep over it but it is a slap in the face.
You do realize this is currently in “closed” beta, right? As in only select few get in for now? And not on a consistent basis? Open beta comes later.
Inactive players do affect the overall server population, as ANet doesn’t terminate inactive accounts (since there is always a chance that said player will play again).
ANet will never inform you of an impending ban. The e-mail is a scam meant to acquire your account information. Delete it and don’t click any links.
It’s a well known but still on-going scam to try to get players to part with their account info. Considering that anything from ANet is marked by their logo, I don’t know why they keep making the attempt.
I think you’ll find your answer here. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/updates/Game-Update-Notes-March-16-2015/first#post4895349
Happened to me too. Game crashes when using portal stone.
I can confirm this bug. Got the extra 50 AP and the GWAMM title (which I didn’t have before). May want to fix this.
When reporting bugs in game, the [Area] drop down menu is showing most bug areas as numeric. Please see attached.
If you change chat windows you’ll have to re-do this as well.
Here’s a theory as to why a build saver isn’t feasible, or at the very least difficult. Builds in this game aren’t based just on your chosen traits, but also on at least 12-14 pieces of gear (armor/weapons/trinkets) and associated utility skills. Assuming you’re even willing to carry half a bag’s worth of extra gear in your inventory, coming up with a mechanic that switches all that around with a click or two when out of combat seems like it would be difficult in the extreme.
There’s a simple enough reason… dungeons are level gated (at least to an extent), but in Fractals you’re up-leveled. Since there’s no agony in 1-9 fractals, it can technically be done by anybody.
I don’t see the point, as AP is virtually meaningless anyway. Yes, the free to apply skins are nice, but aside from that the rewards from the chests can be earned in other ways in game. Taking away any points given in error does nothing.

As many of you know, Leonard Nimoy, AKA Mr. Spock, passed away on the Feb 27th. ANet, do you think you could include some kind of tribute to him in Heart of Thorns? While I can’t speak for everybody, I think there are more than a few who’d appreciate it.
I’m 33
I work nights.
The internet where I work stinks
Love to read Sci-Fi/Fantasy books
I play too many video games
I feel like I’m filling in info for a bad dating site
Cheers!
ANet has said they’ll be making adjustments to the personal story so that it makes more sense again. It’ll probably happen at the same time they rework traits.
Don’t people who work at ANET have access to GM commands? Why would they bother playing normally?
Only when playing on their private/test servers. When live they are bound by the same mechanics as everybody else.

The block function only keeps them from whispering you or you seeing what they say in map and local chat. It doesn’t do anything for party invites.
Most servers in NA are either full or have very high populations. Whether they play WvW or not, a server merger would be difficult if not impossible based on that fact alone.
Posting for FB player. GW1 Password reset. Ticket #1209050. Waited two weeks.
I bought some Karma boosters once when I was making legendaries, but that was it. Most of the other boosters I got were either from BL chests or story/level rewards.
Posting for a player on Facebook. Ticket #1162353. Password recovery. Says he’s been waiting 20 days.
I attempted to purchase 1600 gems through the gem store and received an error message asking me to try again later. I tried twice and was unable to complete my purchase.
A fellow player contacted me via FB and asked that I post his ticket here. Apparently he’s been waiting 2 weeks for a reply. (1203727:Bought Game Via Steam / Merging Accounts)
Except for the in game bonuses that we get, AP is meaningless. I honestly don’t see why people care.
They said at PAX that new legendaries would be introduced. Whether they are weapons, armor, trinkets, or whatever is up for debate.
It’s highly unlikely, as ANet would have to establish a whole data center there. I doubt it would be cost effective.
While I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a certain amount of dodging involved, I don’t see aerial combat being a thing (at least with the current mechanics available).

Always play it safe. Unless it’s announced by ANet themselves, don’t believe it.
I tend to agree. There are only a handful of leg armors that I use specifically for this reason. More pant-like heavy leggings need to be introduced.
The problem is that people still have the ancient MMO mentality that the level and the gear make the end game, and that isn’t how GW2 was designed. Gehenna, Alvagon, the very first thing you have to do before continuing is throwing everything you’ve ever experienced in previous MMO’s out the window, because GW2 is not now nor will it every be like them, and you’ll continue to be sorely disappointed if you keep that mentality.
Reasons to use Trading post:
1. Safe and secure, no potential for scamming
2. Contains items listed from both US and EU servers, not just the map you happen to be on.
3. No message spamming. You don’t have to have your chat channel flooded by buying and selling ads.
4. Freedom to play. You don’t have to sit in a city constantly spamming WTB or WTS.
5. Expediency. You can buy or sell your items instantly without having to wait, unless you really want to.
Reasons not to use the Trading Post:
1. Potentially save a gold or two
2. You intend to scam.
The whole argument that an official personal trading system hasn’t been put in, is because of scamming, is flawed.
There is personal trading. The mail system. But there is no system in place to prevent scamming when you want to trade directly with some one. Thus people have to trade to each other on faith.
The mail system was put in place, so people can give (donate free of charge) items or gold to each other. It was never intended as a trading tool.
Yet still has been used as such.
It may be used as such, but it was never designed to be used that way. As such, it is use at your own risk. The TP can be used at no risk at all.

This should go under Bugs, as it’s a gem store bug and not an account issue.
You should start a thread in the Bug section, as this is not an account issue.
Nope, and we won’t. By the time these bonuses were introduced, many veteran players already had them in one form or another anyway. At any rate, the legacy armor skins are still available in the gem store, and 18 slot bags are a dime a dozen. The bonuses were introduced as a carrot to entice new players to the game.
I mostly use outfits when I’m leveling, then switch to armor skins when I get the set I’ll be using permanently. I do like having them though in case I want to use them (as evidenced by the fact I have all but 3 of them.)
Huck, unless I’m mistaken, a law was passed a few months ago allowing any internet sales to be charged a sales tax if your state has one.
…does it take to change a light bulb?
It is my intention to pre-order two copies. One for myself and one for my roommate… though it does make me wonder what the pre-order bonuses will be?
Don’t forget about the skill point scrolls you get out of champ bags!
ANet said that more info would be released down the road. Given that, I believe that new playable races are still a possibility.
They said that more info would be released as beta and launch dates got closer. A new race is still not out of the question.
