Guild Wars 2

I don’t mean the current guild names in the game, but other the game for example esports teams from LoL or CS.

I was in a soloQ match, and our team died in 10 seconds during the first middle fight. I decided to reroll guardian as I play every single class well and below (see attachments) what I receive via chat and whisper (included a ignore from the other player).

Hi I was just wondering, are we allowed to use already owned team names for example: Team Curse for a guild name? Or is it not allowed?

How the F#$@ do you expect to keep PvP players if your match making system is F#$@ed?

Quoted from the Guild Wars 1 Wiki:

The Maguuma Jungle is the home of one of the five bloodstones and contains enchanted waters. Due to its overgrown nature, some view it to be like a maze and get lost or turned around within the foliage and its many paths. Despite being called a jungle, the higher elevated portions of the area are very arid and almost desert-like. Those portions tend to be riddled with canyons and crevices creating off oases where the water settles. The southern portion of the Maguuma Jungle is the Tarnished Coast.
It is the home of Centaurs, Trolls, Riders, the Druids, and a large variety of insects and living plants. Among the jungle, even in the arid portions, thrives the gargantuan stonewood trees. Palm trees with short stems and large leaves and bamboo are common in the oasis areas.

Quoted from the Guild Wars 2 Wiki:

The Maguuma Jungle is a vast wilderness west and southwest of Kryta. It is divided into the northern Maguuma Wastes, part of the Maguuma Jungle which has dried out since the rise of the Elder Dragons,¹ and the southern Tarnished Coast, home of the asura and sylvari.

Maguuma Wastes is where Ventari made his home before the human-centaur conflict engulfed the region and forced him south to Arbor Bay. Arbor Bay would also become the eventual birthplace of the sylvari (later renamed The Grove), whose presence has had a significant influence on the development of coastal and jungle regions of the Maguuma. Today, various races inhabit the Maguuma, such as the skritt, quaggan, and tengu.

In the past, the mystic druids lived in the Maguuma and became spirits to help guard the jungle and its inhabitants. The Maguuma Jungle is also the home of one of the original Bloodstone, a seer creation used to contain magic in the time of previous rise of the Elder Dragons. Saul D’Alessio, the founder of the White Mantle, found the mursaat deep within the jungle, who later used the bloodstone for their own purposes. The Shining Blade, while still a rebel organization bent on freeing Kryta of White Mantle’s tyrannical rule, operated from within the jungle as well.

I’ve attached a picture of the GW1 map of Maguuma Jungle. From the video it looks like only Dry Top, Ettin’s Back, Ventari’s Refuge, Sage Lands and Druid’s Overlook could possibly be new zones, as they are all “Desert” environment.

If you find another picture that could resemble the GW2 video, feel free to post.

If there is going to be a new zone with vistas etc, how would this affect new players going for 100% world completion, and what about the players who have already achieved this?

Hi,

Was wondering around cursed shore and I was looking for Orrian Saplings to cut down, and I couldn’t reach the one below, tried now for about 10min.

Yes, the red team.

1st Engi: loves himself

2nd Engi: a troll

3rd Engi: loves feet

4th Engi: does not know how to spell

5th Engi: likes to press 1 constantly

Well, considering how broken the game currently is – I wouldn’t be surprised if it effect the chests, unless a developer can reply and confirm that it does not.

Unless is also applies to PvE, which they have not said yet that it does not.

Nope, one of the developers posted in the PvP forums about 2 months ago, here is the link.

I can also confirm that Magic Find will affect the Npc boxes(Example Skelk Reward box, Bear Reward Box) on the reward tracks! Those boxes are there to represent players killing that kind of mob in PvE, but without being in PvE. As loot from killing a monster in PvE is affected my magic find we wanted a similar system in PvP so we came up with these Npc Loot Boxes. So salvage all the things and get ready for April 15th!!!!

I’ve seen a lot of post regarding newbies to enter ranked matches, them having to achieve rank 20/30+ etc before playing.

I think it’s better to say a small IQ test with a pass rate of 80% should be sufficient.

Hi,

Recently I’ve only been doing 3 soloq matches (daily achievement) and, I have a very high win rating considering the more I play the more losses I achieve.

Just thought I’d share this with you all.

Hi there,

Just wanted to share, remeber your magic find affects your opening of champion boxes and chances I assume.

I currently have 140% magic find + birthday booster = 240%

I opened 250 chances, so far I have had one Chaos of Lyssa, 2 minis and 1 spore backpack.

So I heard there is going to be an OP rank 90 BIG DRAGON stomp.

I’ve requested this about 6 months ago. Whats the date?

(builds in the description)
rare gears probably better than the exo i used, i had to stop pressing 1 for a time so i didn’t kill her too early

This build worked like a charm, thank you. It’s extremely easy and even a newb should be able to do it.

Hi there, just need a few tips from the people whom have done this achievement through this patch.

I am an experienced player, I just want to know how you had achieved it and what class spec etc.

Thank you

Just an idea, would it be possible for us to see how much gold was donated to the LA fund after the event?

In-game gold sellers everywhere, I block probably about 20 a day. I also hope the block list does not have a limited on it then we are screwed lol.

So when are we getting an expansion..?

I would really love this to happen, 3 of my characters have 400 Chef (this when the game was fairly new and I was a newb).

Anyway Arenanet you can do something?

I can’t join any parties via the tool, and it just says when I hover over the ‘Join’ button that I have joined to many parties, please try again later.

The same party has been 4/5 for about 10 minutes now (on the tool, and they are still there after I log out and change character or zone).

I have also not joined any parties since I have logged in.

I just logged in about an hour ago, and I have had disconnects and error 7 about 10 times already, what the hell is this?

1. Look at the bottom of this screen, you will see ESRB Content Rating – READ IT

It’s not “bad language”, it’s personal attacks that upset people.

I wouldn’t say the personal attacks are that bad that someone would QQ. If so, they have insecurity problems.

If any of you actually had a search through the forums – I made a thread regarding this prior to the April 15th patch and your answer is YES it does:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/pvp/Magic-Find-PvP-Mystery-Chest/first#post3877703

The amount of threads relating to ‘toxic’ language in tournaments is pathetic.

1. Look at the bottom of this screen, you will see ESRB Content Rating – READ IT

2. If you get offended in-game, I wonder what you are like IRL.

3. I wouldn’t say its toxic, its more sensitive constructive criticism.

4. FINALLY get good, learn the game.

Guardian for mid point, as for Ranger far/close and support mid..

Also depends on your play style, which do you prefer?

Chilli.2976:

Once the que pops, it automatically makes the party of who is on your team.

This is just sort of reminded me of Random Arena in GW1, maybe solo arena teams that win get to continue another match until they lose (or have a shared VOTE to decide to continue as a team or not)?

Dee Jay.2460:

Ok this is getting a little obnoxious.

It’s hard enough to find a open hotjoin game where you can start playing right away instead of being forced into observer mode.

But then you realize that all of the remaining servers have some sort of “special ruleset” mostly based on some sort of “rank farming”. Join them and start fighting, only to suffer verbal abuse of some kind.

It’s pretty stupid and I can’t remember the last time I had a “normal” hotjoin game.

I guess that’s just anther reason why all the noobs moved to teamQ. Can’t really fault them for that.

But that isn’t much fun either. I had SoloQed my way up to about rank 500 in teamQ prior to the patch and since then have about an 80% loss rate. It’s really frustrating.

The best way to win games is, learn other classes. I SoloQ a lot, I play every single class except Engineer, and that’s from a professional view. If you can master more than one class, then you should start winning. I’d recommend master Gurdian first, as you can reroll that class if your team does not have one.

Nemiros.3590:

Following your argumentation I could punch you in the face risking to break your nose and then say “It’s all fun, I mean your nose is broken, but you won’t die from it either.”

LOL

I think instead of a 2min timer (to let you click “join now”), its better once the que pops (soloq for example) all the characters are moved into the match straight away.

I have had two instances, where I’m a bunker guardian and we are currently 3 players @ 0:05 seconds. Then when the 10 seconds counts down, another 2 guardians join that are bunker also, which equals instant loss.

It’s better if all are in the match, then can discuss who goes what etc.

OR

Once the que pops, it automatically makes the party of who is on your team.

Borkko.8796:

“Great, engi loses home again”, “You want this?” (from a warr that was on home when I got there – that’s why he left lol), “I don’t understand how you can’t cap when I’m fighting 2-3 solo” – some other player… I say to all of this “sorry”, and I apologize again for kittening of those two players.

I LOL’d

Blair.3796:

I was in Queensdale leveling a new alt yesterday and there were a group of “experienced” players berating and bullying a first-time user for fighting a champ out of the order of their precious train. They went so far as to tell him that he wasn’t allowed to do champ events out of order and told him to either fall in line or stop playing.

I literally LOL’d

jaykayy.6873:

My friend who was like 42 or 43 said he got bumbed to 5×. I was 40 or 41…i think 40 but got bumped to (if i was 40 that is…) to 41. Is this…right?

Everyone got bumped, its easier to get dragon rank now.

Swapping characters is what happened, that’s why I have put up a post about it. If I knew i just left and got it, I wouldn’t of made this thread.

If you see the timer on the pictures, its obviously not normal to get dishonored when you still have a tournament time up!

As for hotjoin, no way.

Why should their servers do this then? I have not physically raged or DC’d from a match, that has resulted me not been able to join again in the last 2 months.

This just happened, as appears to be the luck of the draw! I’m currently PvEing which I hate!

Plus the timer was still counting down before the tournament even started!

You will get progress on it, but small compared to your win/lose reward. Lets say you do really well in a match: lots of decaps, kills, treb shots, captures etc. You will gain mostly around 290 – 310 rank points (this is what goes towards your PvP title).

Uhtameit.2413:

You tricked me into thinking you’re a spirit ranger ! you’re a mind ranger ! DD:

Indeed! I submitted my ticket, though I’ll probably get a reply after 2 days when it expires, and they’ll just say, we have fixed it now.

Liewec.2896:

i wouldn’t care too much about ratings, it means nothing,
the ladders are so hilariously unsubstantial,

if you want to top the ladders then make a new account and play a couple of games and BAM you’re no.1 EU/NA. best playa eva!

but play for thousands of hours with a 70%+ win rate and you might not even be top 1000.
#AmazingLaddersAnet

Well I got to top 200 yesterday for soloq, which is the first time since this patch hit. I then lost two matches and BOOM back to the %!

silvermember.8941:

Do you just create topics for whenever you have a thought?

Yup, problem?

Uhtameit.2413:

Spirit ranger ! We have a fine player here.

I actually have my own build lol, I just changed it to spirit ranger skills for the picture.

Here is another screen on another character! The timer is still up!

Well, I included the picture and I’m going to submit a ticket.

This is bullkitten!

Are you ****ing serious!

I re rolled thief, loaded the screen and it poped up – tournament timed out and I couldn’t even join!

I have that messaged at the top and its not going away!

Where is the skill in that? How many MMO’s that go esports have this?

All in all, remove skyhammer!

Its not the ranks anymore, if they have a legendary they are instant noob!

The “elite” PvE players don’t read chat, because they know it all. A lot of them ignore chat and just zerg.

To those that a crying over toxic attitude in PvP. Firstly get good and go PvE and get kicked for no berserk gear.
