Guild Wars 2

Thank you very much both of you!

I was wondering what will happen to the mystic forge recipe of the Beta Fractal Capacitor? Will it simply make a Beta Fractal Capacitor with 5 agony resist (AR) in it. Will it make one without AR, thus making this a cosmetic only upgrade just like the one to the (glowing) Fractal Capacitor. Or will this recipe be removed? And if so, will it simply skip this stage and go straight for the (glowing) Fractal Capacitor or will I simply never be able to finish my Fractal Capacitor?
Thanks for your time ( and the great game) Arenanet! ^^

My fractal level is 26 and I did a level 16 fractal yesterday and got a little more than 8000 karma.

edit: According to the wiki the formula for fractal karma rewards is:
6400 + 8 * Completed difficulty * (Personal reward level – Completed difficulty) = Karma awarded

If I’m understanding this correctly you should get 6416 karma for doing a lvl 1 fractal while your personal reward level is 2, wich is quite a generous amount.

Thanks. I still have some questions that weren’t answered, or that are new based on that.

Q: On salvaging blue/green items, will the type of salvage kit used matter for the drop rate of these Essences of Luck? More pointedly, did the 800 gems I spent on the copper fed salvage machine from the gem store just go to waste?

Yes the type of salvage kit will matter. EDIT: No the type of salvage kit won’t matter! ^^ Source: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/bltc/Copper-Fed-Salvage-O-Matic-Useless/first#post2736640

Tamasan.6457:

Q: On giving everyone enough to get to 20% MF, how will this interact with MF from achievement points? Specifically, I already have 7% MF from account bonuses due to achievements. Do I get enough so that I’ll get to 27%?

I believe you’ll get enough to get to a total of 27% mf.

Tamasan.6457:

Q: On 300% max MF, does that include or exclude consumable bonuses? If I have 260%, would the booster from the gem store bump me to 300%, or 310%?

I was wondering the same thing ^^

This information was data mined from the patch. Sounds like a smaller Lion’s Arch…

Royal Terrace

How disappointing.

Not sure if mentioned yet, but sounds like a Guild Hall to me

OMG You’re right it does, finally! ^^

I would love it if the Mursaat returned! And I always wanted to see the Isles Of Janthir!

Alleluia.1320:

Actually, how long has she been in power? Queen’s Jubilee is a very plausible guess if an anniversary of her reign is coming up. And the story could be she’s reviving the entertainment district in direct competition with Caudecus’ bread-and-circuses carnival.

It’s a celebration of GW2’s release with an independent in-lore explanation, taking place in Divinity’s Reach:
[spoiler]GuildMag (Thalador): I think we’re done with the questions, although, it might sound a bit demanding, Ollannach mentioned something about the August Living Story, that we could get a glimpse or a morsel of what’s coming up in August.

ArenaNet (Scott McGough) : Ahhh, okay, yes. It is the one-year anniversary of Guild Wars 2 release, so we have a celebration planned. It’ll be… not so much I want to give away, but it’ll be in Divinity’s Reach, we’ll be dealing with…

GuildMag (Draxynnic) : Interesting

ArenaNet (Scott McGough) : Sorry?

GuildMag (Draxynnic) :I was saying it’s interesting, considering how many have been in Lion’s Arch. Continue.

ArenaNet (Scott McGough) : Yes, this one will be in Divinity’s Reach, the story will move to Divinity’s Reach, and we will follow up on some of our iconic characters. We are going to have a celebration, an anniversary party, that all the players are going to be invited to. There’s a different region for it ingame – I think I’ll keep that to myself for now so it doesn’t spoil the surprise – but yes, the action in August will return to Divinity’s Reach, we’ll have a bit of a celebration, and then a bit of a surprise.

ArenaNet (Ree Soesbee) : Drama, escapade, and shenanigans!

ArenaNet (Jeff Grubb) : Fun for the whole family! Bring the kids! [/spoiler]http://www.guildmag.com/magazine/issue9/interview.htm

Thanks! That explains everything! ^^

Rainbow Sprint.3215:

Well you know 87% of statistics are made up on the spot.

I see what you did there! :P

Yes I saw someone with the same problem, however it seems to be a very rare problem, because I have played Southsun Survival a lot (Great game!) and I only saw someone experience it once.

ps. and there would be lots of rage posts if lots of people had this problem.
pps. but it’s good you made a reasonable post instead of immediately raging!

Wow I did not now that either, but that’s great cause it means I won’t have to vote for Kiel just to get the achievements. (even tough I’m still not sure who I really wan’t to win, ahhh!!)

Quarry… Jade!

Nice try :p

I couldn’t agree more with you guys! Great job Arenanet! ^^

I must say you really got me laughing there! xD Poor Toucan…

AnthonyOrdon.3926:

But what you’ll be finding under that tent (very soon) is not Canthan.

When he said ‘very soon’ he might have meant the next update ^^

I quote Arenanet from reactions to facebook comments:

It’s difficult to be late when a time was never scheduled. ~RB2

The update has not been canceled. It will not “never” arrive. ~RB2

So were just gonna have to be patient. ^^

I was wondering the same thing. And if we don’t get any official respond to this, I’m just gonna make sure mine is on 0/15, just to be on the safe side.

You’re saying this achievement is only acomplishable if you have no life, yet you’re talking about having played 25 games! That’s less then one game a day during the time you’ll probably be able to play it! And seriously it wouldn’t be an achievement if it were easy. Come on!

I believe the Bazaar Of The Four Winds and the Zephire Sanctum are two completely seperate things. And the reason there isn’t an earth aspect is easy. Because the aspects are, as far as I know, magic gathered by the Zepherites from their surroundings. The Zepherites live most of their live in the cloud so the aspects wind, lightning and sun make perfect sense, however earth wouldn’t make any sense.

Edit: as PMilkos said 3 minutes before me. xD

I used to have a crafted exotic armor set I had bought of the trading post. I didn’t really care about it, it was just there to make my character stronger. But then I changed my build and the new armor stat combo wasn’t craftable so I had to do ascalonian catacombs to get my full armor. At the time it was a little annoying, but once I got my first piece I noticed how much more I appreciated my armor. To this day I still look at my armor and think about how I got it. Then my build changed again after the aetherblades release, but I didn’t really know what stat combo I should use (I’m an ele) then came the celestial armor!

And I love it! I have crafted my tailoring from level 27 to 400 and my artificer from 347 to 400 yesterday and I have crafted everything I need except for the crystals. Now all I have to do is make one charged crystal a day and I’ve got my armor! But I’m so much more excited and invested in my armor now that it actually requires me to do something!

Ps. If you have an alt you barely use, just give him a few stacks of crystals and place him at a place of power. Then just log in to that alt once a day and press f. And log out againg, it really isn’t that hard!

I can’t expres how excited I am, espacially after seeing the previews!!!!!!!!!

I <3 u Arenanet!!!!

Check out Bogotters preview:

I’m so excited about this update!!!!!!!!

Well I think the prices will drop again, because the supply is really high for mini pets
that only have been out for one day. So you’ll probably be able to atleast buy Faren for 150 gems if you convert them to gold. However Kaseem seems to be a lot more popular
(I wonder why?…) :p

ps. I might be wrong because there is a chance the mini’s just aren’t being bought because they are not in the special mini pets collection tab. Wich anet is working on, so don’t be mad if prices suddenly rise

It’s not a multi-month event, the next part of the southsun living story is already coming in two weeks! ^^

Thanks for the great game!

Well only two from the boxes, Kasmeer and Faren.
But the mini moa chick is also in the gem store and two new mini babies will be released in the next two weeks

She actually gives you an item. It is in your inventory.
Just double-click it. ^^

Yeah they are rising, I got my Faren for only 3 gold :o

Yes but the prices on the trading post aren’t too high

No you can buy them from the trading post.

I couldn’t agree more, great work anet!

I was wondering wheter this is intended or wheter it is a bug?

BTW Loving the secret of southsun release Anet!

I would LOVE to see Cantha again in Guild Wars 2!

I HOPE NCsoft changes their mind!

I’m having the same problem.
I’m glad your aware of it but do you think it’s going to be fixed?
Or is it too much trouble for a too small problem?

Ps. Thanks for the great game!
