RedSpectrum.1975:

On topic, well sorta, are we going to look over the fact that OP has an astonishing 36 characters?

Im getting there, i have 12, with another 4 planned…so…

I have…five…with no foreseeable extras….

Ewww that is so boring!!! xD I have 10 charr, 1 sylvari, and 1 human. All female. When HOT drops im going to get another 3, for an asura(for AP), norn(for AP) and a male(Maybe) Charr Revanent(To level to 80). Each one of my characters uses different skins, sets, traits, skills, weapons etc, so its never the same playing experience! I hate swapping builds on my characters once i get them set up in something, so i end up making another for another build!

I can see that too, in the US, course i cant read what it says, but i can see the release date and the digital thing…but i wonder how true that is, if so, awesome! if not…boo…

Mo Mo.1947:

Has nothing to do with attraction to me. I don’t make male characters because ANet is notoriously bad at designing them and their armor. I’ve actually tried to make male characters a few times and had to delete the character because it stood stupidly or had nothing but stupid armor choices.

Let’s look at just male humans. If you take off all their clothes they seem to have bizarre hips that give them an uncanny leg gap. It’s not pronounced, but becomes quite pronounced once you put various armors on their deformed Tyrian legs. Not to mention human characters are all essentially boring as heck.

I can make ridiculous looking male charr and ridiculous looking male norn and a serious-face male asura. Sylvari males run weird and are constantly drooping their kitten heads during character creation. HAVE SOME CONFIDENCE, PLANT! And human males have the ridiculous leg gap, again.

Yup…i had a male sylvari once…hes now a she! aside from their voices being meh…i much prefer the female sylvari voice, but my goodness that leg gap is horrible, i never looked that closely at a human before but sheesh!

And this is why the message needs to be at the top and not the bottom…and in big red letters…

serenke.4806:

The thing is, Arenanet is trying to remove all the bits and pieces that make Tyria a “living, breathing world” in an effort to make all player characters more automaton-like. It’s small things sure, but it is the small things that make it living, breathing, memorable.

So true, so true! And honestly, its another reason to keep my sound off, i cant hear what isnt there if i dont have my sound off anyways, thanks minipets for doing this to me. I love listening to the falling sounds of my charr as SHE FLAILED THROUGH THE AIR. Because you know, people dont scream when they fall…

Harvest.2506:

If Anet wants to push for a name that means in pursuit of justice in war (with Dragons being the reason for injustice), while staying special Then they could call this specialization Constable. A Constable is a High ranking officers of the crown in mid-evil times, that’s in charge of the Military Police maintaining the Law, and they fight on the front with the King’s and nobility.

Here http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constable_of_France

That would be a good idea too, there are alot of ideas in this thread really!

Also they dont respond on the weekends, on the forums, so you are going to have to wait.

IllegalChocolate.6938:

ritualist spirits involve communition with the dead.

Most of them where about pain too, or different aspects of it.

Prophet.6257:

This was my thought on the matter for sure.

However, I wonder if in Norn culture a person is “named” by family accomplishment over lineage.

Answer below!!

Konig Des Todes.2086:

Norn are not Icelanders. They are Norn.

Surnames of Norn that have not earned their own legend yet take the first name of their more legendary parent and add sdottir or sson to the end. When they gain a legend of their own, they take on a surname or title reflecting their greatest legend of their choosing.

This is why Jhavi Jorasdottir is not named after some nobody we have no name for that Jora from Eye of the North slept with.

Braham’s name is correct by Norn standards.

Ice of Dragons.1637:

It is true that in islandic culture one gets his name after the father. The norns however get their name after the parent that made the bigger name for themself. In the time of gw1 a couple of norns could start a relationship when they boath were same skilled hunters. I belived it was changed somewhere during the 250 year gap.

Actually it is still the same. Norn are expected to only marry other Norn with equal legends. However, a norn’s legend may rise greater after marriage, such as was the case for Eir with Bjorne.

Hope that helped!

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

In the current setup, for a 31-day month:

• Fire Elemental appears four days, as do Frozen Maw and Shadow Behemoth.
• The caledon wurm and Inquest Golem show up on 3 days.
• Clawr is twice, megadestroyer is once.

There are plenty of other world bosses on timers that don’t appear at all, as well as lesser “world” bosses that aren’t on timers (but appear semi-regularly).

tl;dr OP is mathematically correct: it’s repetitive.

Itd be nice if they added the rest of the world bosses to the dailys..same with the events, harvesting…etc, if they havent of course! i never really checked, i havent done the dailys much since they changed it over…

pureperson.2796:

thanks for replying,

looks like Anet never responds this question, and we can just ignore dat wired replying.

I was talking about asc amulet but he was bring other stuff and repeat “what a shame” nearly impossible to have a conversation with him. sigh…

Yes thats usually what happens with at troll. Im sure they know about this, if they read the forums as often as they say they do. even though they havent said anything.

If they ask for something..and you dont give it…then thats your fault…not theirs..they wont give out information to someone unless they can prove the account is theres.

Also, i changed my email, its way easier to change an email. You submit a ticket. I had it taken care of in a day, i just had to give them a new email address. Again, if you want to give up, go ahead, sucks though for you. I have yet to have a bad experience with anets support. shrugs

Bomber. the guild i just left recently had a guild name change forced upon them as well, including the guild tag. We had been around since pre release, it took us just as much by surprise. The CS team wont change it back, im sorry!

RoseofGilead.8907:

Yeah, the reason your tag was changed is very likely because of how it’s close to the dreaded “f word” (and yes, it is similar; it only needs a K to finish the word). I mean, you could contact support to see if a change could be made, but I don’t know if they’d change it back.

They will not. If it any way resembles something they find offensive or against the terms of service, then they will not change it back, period.

Endless Soul.5178:

No, I played with Tonka trucks, green army men, and built models of airplanes. So much for your idiotic stereotype.

Let me further shatter his idiotic steroetype. I played with those things too, and legos, and rode horses, and did karate, and played dress up.. xD

Well, ifi where you, i would wait anyways…if you care about the story of course! They are putting it back into its proper order and adding in a story arc they cut out

As for your bug, i think i encountered this not to long ago on my thief i was working through story and i restarted it a few times to get it to work..but i might be thinking of a different instance.

Is it bad that the virtues are the only class mechanic i dont use? i mean..i never activate them. They just arent that great really, i dont trait for them of course..but compared to the classes i main, using them just doesnt seem to be a huge benefit.

When its readyTM

Welp, i suppose i count as a guy…though i guess i could also not depending on how you look at it…

Mainly, it lets me wear stuff that i cant wear IRL when i play my one human character. Dresses, skirts, etc!

Altair.8402:

Agreed. If I see another person in SW saying “no aoe at copper” I’m gonna lose it.

Gawd that is so bloody annoying…

Uhtameit.2413:

Except in this case, it is right. You can’t craft ascended trinkets but you can craft exotic trinkets and since at the moment it is the only reliable way to get nomade trinkets…I was right <3

Unlike you though I don’t spend my time checking this thread nor making a fool out of myself typing lines and lines and lines then pretending I don’t care :>. See if you’re going to try to lie, pick a more convincing one.

Welp for one thing you didnt say reliable the first time, you didnt state that till much later. You said it was the only way, which isnt quite true, which is my point. Its not the only way, its the only way for exotics yes, for ascended no(At least when it comes to the point of this topic), the way to get ascended stuff is bugged it seems for quite a few people.

And i dont care, at least not about you, an anonymous person on the internet who i dont know in real life, at least i hope not. I do however care about this topic and this game quite a bit.

When the topic is on a stat and item that i and many others can get from a laurel merchant. While just as many cannot get that stat from and item from the laurel merchant despite them having do much much more. So yes, its a bug.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

Yuri Barebones.3802:

I wouldn’t be so upset but I specifically went back to GW1 & bought a new account to link & did the necessary grind to unlock everything JUST for the GW2 HoM unlocks. Thanks Anet. Can we please get this content fixed & back in the game asap? it would be greatly appreciated by the folks that LOVE the game & feed your families. <3

They are fixing it…..its alot more complicated than what people think. They cant remove(currently) the rewards and achievements from the accounts who got them. Which is what they want to do before they renable the content, so those who got them illegitimately cannot get the rewards they did not.

Uhtameit.2413:

Looks like someone needs a hug. It’s okay, you can re-read the page I sent you and figure out that you were wrong, then you can come back and admit you just wasted your time typing this (even more so since I did not read it ^^ ).

Hey, thanks for keeping this up near the top of the page I didnt even bother reading that page in the first place because of how wrong it is anyways, as i said, wiki is not god. But you are a troll :P and not a really good one at that, if it seemed like i was mad i wasnt, i was busy laughing, because ultimately we both are keeping this thread on the front page. So thanks

Wolfey.3407:

It really is not as hard as it seems, they’ve recycled Wintersday and Halloween with out much issues. A couple minor glitches from someone forgetting to remove an NPC that was part of an obsolete quest.

There may be some Lore issues as to why some of the content can’t be recycled (Zephyrs ) However, a lot of the fun aspects can and probably should be re-used while we wait for HoT.

To be honest, i was hoping they would bring that quest back all the way xD I have all the items for the upgraded backpack still…but i got booted while i was running to the final person. Agree with the rest though

To the people who said jumping puzzles arent part of exploration there are at least two that are.

The Great wall in Dieassa plateau and the Viziers tower.

tigirius.9014:

Since you’re finally using the successful industry standard to stop gold selling in it’s tracks what will happen to DR will you finally at long last remove it?

Thats a good question actually..id never even thought of that. I doubt it really, but it would sure be nice!

Jay.1085:

Or hope it drops for you, a few days at silverwaste will drop you some ascended chest.

Ahahahaha…….. yes….yes it will…IF you are lucky….i have farmed enough bandit crests to buy all but one of the new armor skins…sent 3 weeks out their farming gold..doing chest runs.. you know what i got? not a single ascended or even exotic drop. But that is off topic.

On topic: No, ascended is fine, im crafting it..very slowly, why? i dont get good drops, but you know what? i dont have a problem with that really, its a shame i cant get the one skin i want in the game of course. But when i make a piece of ascended armor i feel like ive actually earned it. I dont buy the materials, i get them by doing things in game.
I also dont feel robbed, or cheated, or like im underpowered compared to someone with ascended.

Edit: plus the skins look ugly, so im in no great hurry to craft them…its mainly the chest i get for finishing 3 full sets thats actually making me do them. If the stats are a problem for you, craft them. the mats are pretty easy to come across, and this is coming from someone who will probably end up kiting out 12 or more characters in ascended armor, weapons and full sets of trinkets…

NoxInfernus.2361:

Actually, the Howling Banshee’s of WH40K* are pretty cool.
IF the Nec. Spec. is based off shouts, and IF it is inspired by the Banshee (WH40K or other more traditional types), then I think it will be well received.

*highly mobile – Martial melee types that use screams to disorient and fear their enemies while striking them down

Oh by the gods i would love that so much! I would actually create a human just for that specialization!

Yea, my “first” character, soloed a champion ^^

Konig Des Todes.2086:

To expect it in the minimal of what’s said is to set oneself up for disappointment. Setting a high number results in higher chances of it occurring sooner.

Plus lately my hopes and expectation in Anet has lowered greatly. So a high number it is.

Lastly, I’d be surprised if this wasn’t put alongside the trait line (aka core specialization) changes, and likely other pre-HoT feature patch changes.

Yup ill agree with that! I was thinking more 12 weeks, but 16 wouldnt be to horrible either..i dread the day the 8th week passes though.. I could also totally see them doing that, it would make alot of sense unless the plan on keeping it split, which would be odd.

Eggs.3142:

What if we just change the hunter part? Wha about Dragonbane

That would be pretty neat. Sure everyone is a dragon hunter…but these are supposed to be specialists at it…which would mean they are hated even more so than any other class.

Uhtameit.2413:

So let me get this straight, the laurel vendors isn’t reliable and is bugged as hell, crafting is reliable. Wao, sounds like I was right after all. The only reliable way to get Nomad is through crafting.

And boohoo, exotic instead of ascended, what a shame :<

AGAIN: YOU CANNOT CRAFT ASCENDED TRINKETS, NECKLACES OR ACCESSORIES which is what the OP is referring to, NOT ARMOR OR WEAPONS, which you CAN Craft. If you COULD craft the Accessories, amulets, and rings i would agree with you. But you CANNOT.

And yes, for now. i do not have Wynnes locket as of yet and thats what she will be getting.

Uhtameit.2413:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Equipment_acquisition_by_stats

Oops, it says you can only craft it. What a shame, I was right.

THIS is wrong. You CAN craft ARMOR and WEAPONS, but NOT the trinkets, accessories, or amulets, FOR ANYTHING, which is what the OP is looking for, which i can buy through laurels. This is a bug, As some players can buy them, and some cannot. Seriously though, how many times do i have to say that the OP is after the jewelry stuff that Cannot be crafted..PERIOD.

Uhtameit.2413:

Yeah and the OP can’t so maybe there’s a reason why the wiki says what it says. If nobody knows how to unlock, that further proves my point : the only available way to get them is to craft.

But hey, next time before contradicting someone you can try and see if you got any arguments on your side.

The only way to get them is not by crafting. Thank you much. I can buy them with Laurels. My mother can buy them with Laurels, My dad cannot. My guild mates are split between being able to and not being able to. The wiki says what it says because nobody knows how to unlock them at the Laurel merchant. Not because its the only way.

ALSO: You CANNOT Craft any ascended rings, accessory or trinkets. The ONLY way to get those is through Laurels, Fractal drops, OR guild commendations, but you cannot craft to get them.

Dante.1763:

I just wish they would finish all the emotes that arent done yet.

there a lot of emotes in development?
this implies this is hard task? or is it just low priority?

Well, i dont know if they are in development, but there are a ton of emotes right nowthat when done in game dont give the typical “No such thing” or whatever it is message. Which means they have the code for it, but no animation set up.

“/dance was not available until the August 21st Stress Test. Many emotes from Guild Wars 1 such as /guitar, /flute, and /drum are not in the game but when entered into chat they do not yield an ‘invalid command’ message. Since this was also true for /dance, many suspect that these emotes will be available in the future. UPDATE: /flute and /drum — along with many more musical instruments — have since been made available as Gem Store items.”

Down in the Trivia section

Mo Mo.1947:

So I’m still not sure if Revenant gets a spec?

It will. All classes are getting one.

I just wish they would finish all the emotes that arent done yet.

Uhtameit.2413:

Yeh, I should learn stuff that contradicts the wiki. Right

Did you check the picture? like at all? otherwise i can just say you are trolling. So congrats? The Wiki is not god. The Wiki is not always correct. Nobody knows how to unlock the Nomad Amulets at the laurel merchant. I can buy them, but the OP cannot. Click on the picture, here ill attach it again for you. Those are clearly Nomad stats.

How about doing some thing similiar to GW1…i had so much fun with those! No sarcasm either

Crimson Clouds.4853:

lordkrall.7241:

It might not be as easy as it seems.

Agreed- can’t remember who it was (perhaps you?) but in another thread somebody mentioned that older content might not work anymore because the engine has been updated and changed so many times since LS1/SAB.

Although I’d love to see this content make a comeback, it would certainly take more work than a lot of players think. Many people think that A-net can press a single button and SAB will be back in game.

It was indeed Lordkrall and he is very right. I would still gladly pay to have access to SAB whenever i wanted to, but thats unlikely to happen. I would however love to see it return.

To the person who asked for season 1, they cannot bring season 1 back at the moment as it was not designed to be done more than once. They do plan on such a thing however if they can put aside time for it.

Just a flesh wound.3589:

I had that shield on my warrior for a while in Guild Wars 1. No special effects. Just a cool looking shield.

Yup thats what i was thinking! It is a good looking shield and i wouldnt mind paying for it, but i hope we can get it in the base game!

Azhure.1857:

As for the rest of the “anti-mount” crowd? Well I imagine some would try their best to continue playing the game without mounts, no matter how damaged their experience may be. The rest…. well the rest may just quit the game.

Last post here, but this is what would happen to me, id try for awhile and then leave.

MithranArkanere.8957:

It’ll probably be a gemstore skin. 600 gems. No special visual effects.

Did it have special effects in Guild wars 1? i never used shields really, but i dont recall it having them there…unless you mean animations or some such?

Tribune.4510:

Literally called Infinite Light yet has pretty much nothing to do with light besides glowing runes on the blade, which emit no light. Seems like a something that could be added fairly easily if you ask me. Also, The Flameseeker Prophecies has no fire but still emits light.

Again, its a light saber(those too dont give off light)! and it leaves fairy dust type stuff whenever you move. But its a rune sword, the runes are etched into the blade(despite how it looks.) Why does infinite light need to glow? thats my question. Its already one of the best looking sword skins in game(it surpasses Bolt in my opinion because of how pretty it is, and its not obnoxious). Sure it could (probably) be done, but does it need it? in my opinion, it does not. To each their own. You want it to glow, i dont, because i dont think it needs to glow.

As for the flameseeker prophecies, its a legendary, and its way way brighter than infinite light is. https://wiki.guildwars2.com /wiki/File:The_Flameseeker_Prophecies_wielded.jpg

that shield actually hurts my eyes too look at it, thats how bright it is, infinite light, not so much.

Sure it could (probmably) be done, but does it need it? in y opinion, it does not. To each their own. You want it to glow, i dont, because i dont think it needs to glow, id probably not make it if it did glow because the glows hurt my eyes whenever they get put over anything white.

jetpacks off I do hope you enjoy the sword for what it is though, its a pretty sword that gets almost no use because of how bloody expensive it is!

Wow..you have really good eyes xD i would never have noticed that! Hopefully we can actually get it!

Tribune.4510:

So is the Fiery Dragon sword skin, which also didn’t provide light in GW1

Well no, no weapon did. but its a solid blade of fire. While infinite light however is a solid blade of energy(more akin to an energy sword), thats how ive always looked at it at least. Its not light as the name implies, its more like a lightsaber from star wars.

Also, if thats all it takes to make you feel ripped off? im impressed. The skin itself is amazing, and the particle effect it has is pretty cool too.

Nope! Because infinite light is based off the GW1 Runic Sword! I <3 it and plan on making it as soon as i can get the charged lodestones for it!

pureperson.2796:

thank, I just realize the bug is real.

Im going to have to agree, unless there is some hidden unlocking mechanic that nobody knows about yet…

Ugh i would so love those Clothes that the charr have to be available as armor…

AND the pinkish fur tone too!!

Uhtameit.2413:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Equipment_acquisition_by_stats

Oops, it says you can only craft it. What a shame, I was right.

You are oh so very wrong. You should learn stuff.

TO THE OP: Im sorry, i have no idea why you cant see them T.T I dont even remember unlocking them!
