Pre-purchased the game, yet to have an 80. Seems about lvl 40-50 ish I get the alt-itis! Though now all my slots are full…so we’ll see. Currently my highest is a Ranger @ 59.
Made a female last night, and sad at the body options. Either you’re a stick, or Dolly Parton. There should be a middle.
I know they are specific to characters (which sucks).
Thanks for the replies.
Are you in the same zone?
Same server?
Karma only comes from events. I thought the same thing when I started.
I’ve landed safely once I think, had to line the drop just right. Other times I try and go when a high level is going, they usually survive and rez me haha.
Do dyes happen to get renamed? I bought grass dye last night, and used it. After using another dye to see the color, grass dye is no longer in my window. TP says I already have it.
If you checked the locations and they’re not there, might not have spawned yet. I went for a Juvi eagle the other day, at the location named…it took about 5 minutes for one to spawn. Almost died running back and forth thinking I missed it. It spawned right next to me.
If you’re getting ruined items, or failure you need to upgrade the tool. It’s not a bug.
Konmai> what pets are you using? I use a Murellow for my tank/aoe, and switch to a Lynx for damage. The Lynx looses health way faster, because it’s not built for it.
My pets don’t feel underwhelming, the Murellow can take a lot of damage (hit vit), aoe poison, and self regen. In events I love to drop 2 traps, his aoe, and entangle.
My weaps are usually sb, and axe/axe (was axe/torch).
Seemed like a group event, but it didn’t say it was. I tried /m but I think everyone was in LA for the Halloween stuff lol.
Never tried Engi, but I did try Necro. It was fun for about 20 levels, but I got tired of pets dying to fast and/or not attacking. I made a Ranger after (still wanted a better class), though tempted to try my Necro again, just learning how to play w/o pets.
Ele was my 1st character, and I loooooved fire. But you get elements instead of weapon sets, and I just SUCK at swapping elements…I’d always hit the wrong one.
“I’ve noticed a trend with WoW players and this “Lack of reward” nonsense that keeps coming up.”
It’s not just a WoW thing. Every mmo gave you better loot for harder bosses. Some people like being rewarded for working hard to kill something (I know I do). I think at least Champs and dungeon bosses should give better stuff.
I’m not saying make it like super uber rare loot, but at least greens (that you can use)…not blues and junk.
Last night I started an event (Defend Wikk as he calibrates the asura gate) in the POI next to this waypoint, by pressing a button that said “do not press”. Event started, I completed the event (protect the guy while he sealed the portal).
Then another event started. Kill all the animals coming out of the portal. My dilemma…they never stopped coming! I’d kill them down to 5 left…then see the number bump up to 11. Swear I fought this non stop flow for about 5-10 minutes before giving up.
Anyone do this event? Do I have to kill them faster then they spawned?
I don’t pvp, but in pve I use a Murellow to tank (aoe posion, self regen) and swap to a Lynx (for solo, or when the murellow dies). Underwater I use the Shark, and Armor Fish (as backup).
Weapons I use, short bow and axe/axe. Love the Ranger, I can take on a lot of mobs, and kit the kitten out of them!
I did use axe/torch…setting fire is fun! And entangle is great! Set 2 traps, Murellow aoe poison, entangle…watch the health drop.
I’m almost there, but for me I think it’s because I play to much. I love my Ranger, it’s my highest. I mostly get bored because it’s the same skills used over and over. Yes, I know you can swap weapons, but some sets just suck.
As for the Halloween event, meh. In every mmo I’ve played, sesonal events never really made me go “wow!”. Except WoW, they had good sesonal events.
Thanks Mercury. Sucks I have to do more GW1 lol, I play this one enough!
I’d love a rabbit, rapture and dolphin
I didn’t realize the points were account based, thought it was per character. Essentially I have to play GW1 to earn more, right?
Maybe that’s the thing, I don’t remember if I’ve visited the HoM in GW1 (or even how to get there anyway). I’m just looking to get the rare pets for my Ranger, guess overall it’s confusing.
Most the characters have 3/50 which I realize is probably no rewards really, but how do I get them, to get the pets?
Wow. Was it so hard to answer the question w/o being a kitten?
Been out of game a bit, was curious if this was fixed? Thanks.
I logged into GW1, and there is still nothing in the GW2 HoM. Do I have to do anything in particular in GW1? I can’t find anything to explain, except “log in, it should be there”
I got the stone from a vendor in LA (can’t recall which one, it was the poi in a cave) because I didn’t have it in the inventory and a website said he sells it, if you’re able to get it.
I don’t remember if I went to HoM in GW1, been awhile.
Got the portal stone, but when I get there to talk to the historian there’s no rewards. Accounts are linked.
How do I get the rewards? Do I have to log into GW1?
You used to not have to, not sure when it changed though.
Probably the way the “view” was angled. Doesn’t look like a child to me.
Or maybe a little person?

Ah, cool. Wasn’t aware you could use higher armor.
You have to remove the gear you’re wearing, and they have to at least be the same level (or below). You can’t transmute to a higher level.
You have to click on the book, but not every bookcart is readable (unless I just click wrong).. Even if you do find one, it’s a super short read, which sucks.
Love entangle, especially in events. Lay 2 traps, entangle + murellow aoe poison is a recipe for win.
I love my Ranger, and don’t pvp. Pets do need some work. They run way out in front of you when you stop, and aggro stuff. They can’t attack while moving (which makes them useless when you’re kiting). Some pets’ F2 skill cast faster then others.
Granted these aren’t game breakers (at least for me) but they make pets annoying at times.
Even l2p won’t fix these issues.
You only need to change it once in game, if you’re using the mono headset outside of game (like vent/ts). You’ll also need to change it in your computer sound settings (to use the speakers), then in the voice chat program (to use the usb headset). It’s super easy.
It’s not something you need to switch all the time. My usb headseat is always plugged in and I have no issues.
I’m assuming he wants to talk through it and hear others reply, while keeping game sound separate.
I use this headset, it’s USB with it’s own sound. You can set this to be used through vent/ts, and have the game come through the pc speakers.
I agree with the original post. Alot of people are raging over this change, and not in a constructive way. I don’t get why people say they’re going to quit…the game is FREE. You already bought it, quitting won’t affect them in any way. Instead of pointless threats (quitting, changing classes, etc) act mature about it.
I applaud the people who have treated this matter calmly, and feel sorry for those who raged about it. A few bad apples in this forum can look bad for all of us.
The post probably got nasty, people just adding fuel to the fire. Just because it’s closed doesn’t mean they can’t read the feedback from it. Just hop on one of the other many posts about the same issue, it’s the same thing repeated.
No reply doesn’t mean not respected. If they posted that it’s being fixed, people will rant that it took forever. If they say it’s in the works, people will say it’s taking to long. If they say it’s in the next patch, people will say ANET doesn’t care about their players for taking so long. Ranger isn’t the only class bugged in this game.
Alot of people are never satisfied in mmos.
When I had constant d/c issues, resetting my modem and router fixed the issue.
I agree with the part about the forums. Anything useful is pushed to other pages because people keep reposting the same stuff about the nerf.
Otherwise I have no issues with Ranger, having fun on mine.
After you apply it, try hitting the dye icon again to close out the dye menu.
I always give it a shot if it’s to high, you’ll be amazed at what you can do. Sometimes the quest is just talking to someone.
If it’s to hard I try to get friends to help. All else fails, I level and go back to do it. It’ll bump you down to the appropriate level anyway.
Sell/TP everything you don’t use. Salvage white items. Gather. Do a lot of events, and all hearts.
I’m not broke, but not rich. I spend alot on dyes though.
Love my Ranger, the nerf hasn’t made this class unplayable (for me). If you’re dying so much, adjust your play style. My death toll hasn’t changed.
And they probably deleted the other post, because there are so many threads about this nerf, all stating the exact same thing. It’s pretty redundant and pushes other topics off the page that people actually want to read.
Love mine as well, main leveling pet. Named mine Prince Charming.
I like my Norn, fan of the tattoos. I didn’t try and think what race “fit” a thief. I do enough profiling at work.
Caltrops, keep poisons /bleeds up and dodge like a mofo.
I wanted a break from Thief, and tried Necro. Got tired of pets not attacking and dying to easy, tried Ranger because I wanted a pet class. Should of did Ranger first. Despite the nerfs/bugs I’m having fun.
Like others have said, activate an aoe (but don’t use it), use the target to spot the rocks. Or tilt your monitor, you can see the shadows of the rocks.
