Guild Wars 2

The search function doesn’t work here, but using a search engine like google to search the forums would have shown the many threads about PvE dueling.
You would have many threads to add your comments to, and would have seen that it appears to a subject that is very controversial, but the consensus seems to be not in PvE ever. There is a place for dueling for those that want to, so go to that area.

You can put all you want here, just don’t include names.

Buy direct from Anet using the shop link, you will have accept the exchange fee or, as suggested, contact support.

BTW, 1.00 JPY = 0.00979519 USD
( compared to me 1.00 CAD = 0.779265 USD you are getting off real easy).

Danikat.8537:

Just so you’re aware both these requests come up on a very regular basis (once a month at least) and both are very unpopular every time they do.

So this topic is probably not going to receive a good response. And Anet almost never reply except to warn people to stay civil, or to lock the topic when it goes too far.

^ Discussed many times and can be ignored. If the title of the thread actually reflected the subject matter I wouldn’t even have bothered to read it.

Working as intended. You have reached the cap.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Daily

“There is a cap of 15,000 Arenanet Points for daily and now-defunct monthly achievements combined. Once the cap is reached, additional points from the “Daily Completionist” meta achievement will no longer increase the account’s achievement points, but individual reward bonus chests will still be given out.

Wow, I thought most people hated that skin….

They don’t hate the skin. They hate the fact that it shows through the back of your head.

And 1st person view when moving forward as well.

Yep, They have a cap and you have passed it.

Increase Drop Rate of Invisible Stompers and other invisible shoes. Nearly impossible for most players to obtain.

Can you please change the title to reflect your post?

Yep, please fix that.!!!

I just toss them.

20% of the community likes it—-Ill can you link me up with the data on that please??

RoseofGilead.8907:

Ardenwolfe.8590:

She’s still in Frostgorge? Seriously, ANet, tell us if this is intended or a bug. Please?

Their silence points towards it being intentional, in my opinion. I could be wrong. But . . . yeah.

But then again most of the devs replies have been to thank you type posts and announcements (sales, vids etc.). Except when a major problem arises like last week and suddenly the devs are more active in the forums and are able to use it to pass info and respond. Crisis has passed and very limited dev activity seems to have resumed. But it is the weekend, but I could be wrong.

Amaimon.7823:

There are currently two glitches that I’m aware of in first person mode.
I never made a notice of it, since the first never really applied to me, but now with the second, I think I will:

When in first person mode, and holding a Long or Short bow sheathed (nto drawn) you will see the string over your screen as you run around. Having a stripe over your screen as you run really isn’t a thing I’m looking out for. Current fix is unequiping a bow while not on the battlefield, or always running around drawn (although it will auto-sheathe after 15 seconds)

Secondly, the new Red Bloodstone Sight. Apart from the glitch that you can see the glowth through the head of the wears, you can also see it floating in front of you in first person mode, kind of making first person mode impossible when wearing the bloodstone eyes. Having two red glowing orbs filling up your screen isn’t a thing I’m looking out for. No possible fix other than hiding them when in first person mode…

Confirmed. Have experienced both. 1st one has been around for quite some time and hasn’t been addressed.

ciravolpe.3081:

why you ask me to change my name when I enter the game?
Name Character: Necrofilia Convulsa/Necrofilia Alcolica.
Class Necromancer.

LOL—are you kidding me? You really can’t understand?

vmtarsis.3798:

Bloodstone Visage does not appear on my character in the loggin screen I can’t admire its awesomeness while picking my characters. I’m guessing this is a bug?

A few posts about it. I’ve mentioned it as well. No response from any dev.

You forgot to mention the approximate for completion. ‘Soon’ means???

Rose Solane.1027:

Joe Farmer.2063:

Best guess this is a workaround, no automatic login,
no crash.
Very likely just some missing German strings for some new items … they could just ask some of us German players for translation
We will not put in anything naughty, promise!

If this is a workaround for the crash of the TP if you use the German language it is not a very good one. As this is a web-page, why not replace it with an explanation? Like: Due to an issue with German translations we had to take down this functionality. It will be restored soon.

Edit: And the page works again for me.

Ditto. Just tried again. All seems well.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Gem-Store-Login/first#post6298572

Lots of problems with Gem store right now, no info from devs yet. One post does mention post on FB have been deleted, so they must be aware.
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Gem-Store-Login/first#post6298572

edit: All seem ok now.

Ditto, no access to TP. Asking for login. Submitted an in game report.

Simple reason it will never happen. Anet makes money selling Bank Tabs, Bank Space and Inventory Expanders.

No more bling. Something really useful!!!! and a good discount (40-50%)
Black Lion Keys
Salvage Kits
Bank Tabs
Inventory Storage Expander
New Character Slot
HoT Deluxe version
Additional Bag slots
All the contracts (hair, name, character do overs).
Share Storage
Etc.
And 1 week of TP taxes at 50% off.

There has been a few threads in the bugs section asking the same thing in. Not any responses from Anet.

You could always buy more space to allow more than 250(up to 2000 per stack). You will need the shards at some point.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Storage_Expander

Obtena.7952:

And then those people should frankly ‘excuse’ themselves from the conversation, because for them, there isn’t any change in how shards are earned; for them, it’s always been necessary to unlock masteries to earn shards with XP.

^Yes!!!!!!!!!! Agree!!!!!

RoseofGilead.8907:

XIIIBlade.6574:

Stitch-
Not necessary for your response, not going to explain to you as well (I can explain it to you in many ways and you will still not get what I can help you with); you can experience your own life till you understand what you are really contributing.

Stitch was trying to help you by explaining the difference between a bug ticket and a support ticket; the former will never get a human response, while the latter will get a human response. There’s no need to get defensive.

^ and as clearly pointed out, it is not a bug, but working as designed. You have reached the cap. (for 10 points award for dailys—but you can still earn AP points from other events).

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Achievement-cap-Merged/first

How many points do you have?
from wiki https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Daily
There is a cap of 15,000 Arenanet Points.png for daily and now-defunct monthly achievements combined. Once the cap is reached, additional points from the “Daily Completionist” meta achievement will no longer increase the account’s achievement points, but individual reward bonus chests will still be given out.

So if you are at the cap(which it sounds like you are), its working as intended.

Obtena.7952:

Djinn.9245:

What this all comes down to is Anet attempting to force players into game modes whether the players want it or not. I think its sad, really.

No, they aren’t. You don’t need to raid to obtain spirit shards. Get your facts straight.

Obviously no clue as to the Anets apparent new policy of policy of promoting modes of play that some (I would say many) don’t care to participate in. It ISN’T about obtaining shards. I just love seeing all those experience points being rewarded as I play but my EXP bar doesn’t move just because I have no interest in raids. This is happening with many other aspects of game as well (daily, adventures, etc).

Neural.1824:

This suggestion is at the top end of my list of requested QoL items. The lists simply need to be collapsed at opening. For the way I use the crafting system, it simply would make things much faster, without having to mess with the filters or search queries.

This^ and ‘refinement’ should always be first and at the top,

and it doesn’t show at all on the character choice screen when logging in.

Xillllix.3485:

Remember when they presented Stronghold as GvG on the day of HoT’s announcement and the audience cheered?

They know that the competitive community want a GvG mode ever since the game was released but they keep avoiding the topic every time it is brought up as if it is a censored topic.

If they want to make a fortune and see their number go up it’s not complicated:
Add a GvG mode with a guild ladder and complete stats tracking. Let the community build the features with a open beta testing ground in constant evolution.

They can even just add open World PvP/GvG with Guild Alliances so they don’t even have to design new maps.

How it works:
The game randomly choose a region where a “Guild War” occur (like the Scarlett attacks used to work). The map becomes red on the world map and everyone going there is either in open PvP or GvG. Sides appear on different corners of the map. The score of the Guilds/Players from a certain alliance is added to a WvW server alliance made of the same guilds/players.

Simple way to make the game more interesting. What Anet needs right now is just some imagination and the guts to do something new.
All hell will break lose, and it takes a minimum of development time.

No thanks.

Benny Hill theme map. Cue the song.

Jourdelune.7456:

It could be great to have all the complains at the right place.

So all stuff that players QQ about should be at the same place.

This would help to get all other forum in a positive, constructive place.

If you like this, +1 it.

Ostrich, or maybe a blind knights section would be better

Lord Kuru.3685:

I can see their revenue generating scheme now: Legendary Armor available only to those who buy the 2nd expansion.

And then cancel them? Fool me once.
It will be a wait and see for me. Also a different pricing model for those that bought Core and then bought HoT would be nice,

It isn’t visible on the character screen when logging in. Nothing on my characters head even though it is equipped and visible in game.

Zedek.8932:

Are you hired for the Nielsen company or do you just make these claims because of some angry reddit posts and close friends? As someone who joined just 1 year ago to me it seems people like you waited for something that did not happen and now you’re here to cause mad beef. If there are many other games that apparently are so good and not dying, why aren’t you trying those meanwhile? I am pretty sure you come back soon – or stay there (for good).

As a ’ 1 year’ player you really do not have the history to make those accusations. The game is going to be 4 years old soon. Many have been playing since that long (and longer if they played the beta and add to that GW1 for some). You have no idea what the game was like. The dungeon nerfs, lack of content, nerfs for PvP that affect PvE, concentration on Raid, times gates, ruining small guides etc. If you joined with HoT you can’t really appreciate what the game was.

Zedek isn’t suffering nostalgia and past grievances that cloud his/her perception of what the game currently has to offer. In that, Zedek has a clearer perspective than many of the longer-stayed players.

~EW

No, it’s a different perspective, not a clearer one. Without knowing and or experiencing the past, he doesn’t have the full information and experiences to negatively judge others, which Zedek did. It wasn’t really about the game, just a comment as a recent player that likes the game, not much else except for getting personal towards the original post responded to.

Zedek.8932:

Elyssa.8307:

HoT drove away a massive number of people. They gutted WvW and dungeon communities by killing the game modes, and the extreme grind drove away casual players.

That being said, there has been good things as well.

DoctorDing.5890:

I’ve not noticed any extra lag but I do now see a very very slow initial rendering of places which is something I have not seen before in this game. It’s particularly bad in the main cities. I’m not talking a bit of flicker. When I portal to Hoelbrak my toon stands in mid-air for one second then it takes probably 5 or 6 seconds for the environment to get fully drawn. Once it is done there are no further problems or lag. It’s so slow that I can portal in and run to and enter my home instance before more than a pot plant or two have appeared (it takes a bit of practice to avoid the invisible walls!)

So something definitely changed around the time of LS3.

Ditto, but I haven’t tried moving until the map is fully loaded.

Yep. I can confirm. It’s not just you. There are multiple threads about it.

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Why do people keep assuming that this was intended behavior? Isn’t it just as likely that this is a bug? (Or an oversight.)

Because that is the way Anet works and have demonstrated it more and more lately. Anet pushes content that (it seems in this case) that many players don’t want or care to do and are pushing raids (among other things) then locking progress.

People assume things because of their perception of Anet, be it right or wrong. IF players feel that anet is manipulating them or game, nerfing, devs don’t like to assist in the official forums,not balancing all areas of the game, broken RNG, locking and time gating just to slow progress etc., it really doesn’t matter if they are right or wrong. The perception of the Anet by the players is what matters.
It also doesn’t help in the least the devs will not address issues like this in the official forums. False perceptions will have a negative impact on the game overall.

Anyways, back to topic now. Raid participation should not restrict XP in fen. A dev dropping in here could easily clear up is it a bug or sorry , we designed it so you must do raids (or a raid) to have your XP bar active again.

TheGrimm.5624:

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Isn’t it possible that this is a bug? Has ANet actually said that we have to complete all the raid masteries to start earning spirit shards?

I don’t think its a bug, but could be wrong. Seeing the logic work in Tyria and the pattern between the 2 with the people that tested with us was that we all had all of Tyria done but non of the raid masteries done. In Tyria XP was building and leading to shards, in Mag it was just a blank bar.

My understanding is you only have to be successful on one raid to unlock, not all of them. nor do you need the raid masteries. Once it is unlocked, the XP bar will fill in fen(if trained etc.).

LanfearShadowflame.3189:

Raid Masteries, should not be a factor in the regaining of access to spirit shard generation. I doubt the majority of people will even do raids, but I could be wrong. Even still, I feel they should be their “own thing” that shouldn’t act as a barrier to the ‘average’ player.

^ This. I agree. I was very disappointed when I found out why my exp bar wasn’t increasing while in the fen. I am becoming increasingly frustrated with Anets’ barriers.

I was asking last night why my ex bar wasn’t moving and no one could explained this to me aspect to me. TY for the info. I used LFG to see, and there was nothing offered that could help (lots of restricted/ we need/ must have this ……. ones though).
Bottom line for me, it is forcing me to play an aspect of the game that I don’t want to or have ever been interested in if I want my EXP bar to fill. That is ridiculous. I continue to question poor design decisions by Anet that negatively affect and frustrate PvE players( I speak for myself, but I am sure there are others).

Hopefully they will be adding more to CT (ASAP).

Zok.4956:

After the patch yesterday it worked in every fight (five) I was in and he had several phases during the fight where a lot of player were ported into the air.

Yep. it was the what the —? moment when the porting happened last night. I had done the event many a few times before the patch and had never experienced the mechanic before.

I ran across the the same thing when I finished a book last night. Two of the same books in my inventory, one complete, and one not. I tossed the incomplete and store the other (for now).

Skipping story dialogues option after you have experienced it once.

It wouldn’t be so bad if you could skip ALL dialogue after you have done it once.
I will get the portal instead of replaying without a skip option.

Khisanth.2948:

The other ridiculous thing. They can also hit you while stealth gliding.

The problem is with stealth gliding. Any enemy can hit you when stealth gliding. It needs to be fixed. That being said , the range from from knights needs to be reduced.

Could be may reasons why. Did you buy from an authorized retailer? You didn’t mention where you purchased HoT.

I want to play Season3 now and it’s 3:20am July26 in California! =(

You have been playing long enough to KNOW how the process works. You really don’t need to make the resident under the bridge type post.
(and I know there will be many other threads doing the same thing or asking when by new players and vets a like)
