Scarlet may be a horribly implemented character, but by god is the stuff they come up with, and use her as an excuse for, all kinds of awesome!
Lazy writing does that. Shallow plot devices out of the *.
The writing is truly getting worse and worse.
Oh nothing. : – D
FINISH HIM! Oh wait, you already did.
Hah. Of course it’s hero whos controlling it.
Obviously the droprate on these two minis is not representative of rare quality, they drop almost more often than holo risen lol. I guess it was anets way of assuring that exotic price will never go above 120+. The exotics of set 2 are around 50 gold, now that’s a new low for an exotic mini that even counts for the sets.
Is this really necessary, bp?
Wagonbrand
Fort Wagon’s wood
Stormwagon isle
They were also even so nice as to raise its original price by 200 gems.
Did they really? Wow.
It was an anomaly but the fact that the rare from blc are forgable has to be a mistake. Blue and Green minis are still on the prices they were at before this started occuring.
Asura Cultural Tier 3 Light, Savant Coat/Epaulets
Race: Asura
Class: Elementalist
Sex: Female
The coat is completely broken, it makes every single possible combination of pauldrons, including the Tier 3 one, disappear. It makes the neck piece expand over it’s limits. Even one of your main characters, Zojja, has this problem ingame and cutscenes.
I seriously hope this thread is being watched because this glitch in particular is terrible and goes about affecting even the cutscenes with zojja.

Fractal Shield clipping
Tested characters
Race: Charr
Sex: Female
Profession: Engineer
Race: Asura
Sex: Male
Profession: Guardian
Race: Human
Sex: Male
Profession: Warrior
The shield goes inside the hand in all cases. As it clips so heavily in the arm, it usually goes through the pauldrons and backpiece, which is rather rare. It also tends to sink into the users back when sheathed.
There have been numerous threads and bug reports made about this shield but to no avail.
https://www.google.fi/search?q=fractal+shield+clipping+gw2+site:forum-en.guildwars2.com&client=firefox-a&hs=w3e&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official
One of the hardest shields to get in the game ruined by the worst clipping on a shield to date.
Move it further from the arm holding it and it can be considered as fixed. Because it clips so heavily in the arm, it also usually goes through the pauldrons, which is rather rare. It also tends to sink into the users back when sheathed.

the manifesto itself, which is only 1 video out of 24.
18 of the 24 videos are showcases.
There is a video in there that tells you specifically about the personal story and another video in there that specifically tells you about dynamic events. There are other videos that tell you about everything
It’s telling me how it’s different on GW2 from traditional MMOs, not actually telling me much aside from instilling in me that GW2 is different.
So what you’re saying is that anything that MIGHT be misintepreted from three years ago, in a single video should have it’s own page of corrections just in case someone might misunderstand it, because my understanding of some of those lines, even without the clarification was completely different.
No. I’m saying a link to where I can see it on the official GW2 website should be there. I shouldn’t have to go to some random website that saved it on their server from a post way back when. Someone at ANet wrote it, I don’t see why it’s on deleted blogs and not situated where I can see it without a Google search on the topic.
saying that this is something Anet has to rectify is just plain silly.
Why? Why is it silly to say ANet should go back and fix the Manifesto to reflect what they really meant? Because of time? Because of all the content that’s being worked on? They can spend hours doing live feeds, but can’t fix a video? It’s still their main marketing point. Do you see the almost daily threads on here about this topic? People are still viewing it.
Those who continually bring up the manifesto are living in the past, and any MMO player will tell you that’s not a good place to be.
It’s called nostalgia.
If the game had met your expectation in other ways, would you still be bringing up the manifesto? Would you even care about it?
I would. But I don’t base most of my comments off of the Manifesto. And so would others. Because there’s more that’s been reverted that’s outside of it. And before you tell me MMOs change and evolve and all that, I agree with you, that they do. But, they shouldn’t go in the total opposite direction over what was said. A small turn is alright, but going all the way around is not.
Maybe you understood everything that was said in the Manifesto in all your wide worldy wisdom. Others didn’t. In fact, I’d be willing to bet that maybe 20 people total understood what was actually being said in the whole video. Truth or not, the other 98% of the game’s population didn’t..
98% of the players didn’t even see the manifesto video in the first place /rolleyes
Care to backup this statement?
Look, if youre running a wvw build you wouldn’t be so terribad.
I’m running pve and they fall apart like scarlets invasion ahahhaah
Lupicus is harder than sbi.
If youre a real wvwer the you wouldnt be so terribad.
God-kitten sbi are terrible duelers.
I cared until claw island.
Then it just got horrendeously bad and rushed.
And to think they removed the 10 silver version (basic training manual) and now put it back for 4g? Lol.
What the heck? I didn’t know that.. I understand to a degree when they won’t fix new gemstore sets for characters like charr, but to not properly fix Cultural Tier 3 is absolutely stupid.
Charr cultural has problems as well.
To this extent?!
SBI is not ready for the gold league. Not yet – but we’re working on it.
And we would really love to get in Gold, even if it meant staying on 6th all the time – so much fun to be had and stuff to learn.
Any sort of reliable prediction should however be postponed till Saturday, when we’ll know the last matchup. I hope we get SoS.
Yes you are with the bandwagons.
Looks like bottom of gold league is either mag or sos? And the winner of silver is, based on that, SBI/sos/mag. Prolly sbi due crazy bandwagons.
However, the worst scenario would be to stay as top of the silver league – you can guess what SBI would become then.
A winner of silver league … Oh noes???
Exactly. Again, why does the server population, which is in charge of transfer fees, take into account everything? These servers that have small wvw presence still show very high thus making any kind of transfers to them not happen.
Now I kinda want to make perplex thief.
Really tired of roamers with perplexity runes, seriously broken kitten. It’s not about meta, the rune is literally broken.
I would prefer if Anet would simply try to get more money via paid content like mini expansions than these cash shop items which should be included features in the first place.
For instance, back in early Beta the gathering tools were unlimited use, then someone decided that they could milk people by making it consumable and down the line make it a gemstore item. There’s no way for me to continue with this train of thought without losing civility so I’ll cut myself off here.
Yes it does feel like what’s happening is they purposefully made a lot of gameplay designs a hassle, just to later ask money for making it what it should have been in the first place.
It’s not cosmetic stuff anymore, it is convience taken away(literally, the 10 silver trait book) and then put back up for an insane fee – like we wouldn’t notice? Come on.
DB has certainly been hit by a number of guilds leaving…but frankly I would hardly say destroyed lol. Transfer to some of the bottom tiers and pop into WvW
Right now we’ve had some tough roll’s with the RNG getting matched up well out of our league, but we are still able to put up some fight against TC when we can muster it. Once we get matched up with a server more our WvW size right now it will make for a much more enjoyable matchup IMO.
O-hai gama.
Yes indeed the rolls have been bad, but they’ve been bad for a really long while now. It’s gotten to a point where people generally give up and since hardcore guilds took their leave, what do we have? SEA was never an issue, although we lost a lot of hardcore SEA players, as well, but the lackluster NA due bandwagons created a terrible experience if you want to take the day long presence into account. Outmanned in own BL most of the time is just silly. People enjoy to come in more casually to WvW when there is something happening, unfortunately nothing has been for a long time and itll end up driving even the moderate WvWers out to PVE. Or bandwagon. Or quit game.
What a garbage situation.
Why is it so? The only reason someone would genuinely want to pay that much for a transfer is 99% of the time for wvw, yet anet decided that the total population, including PVE and Spvp is what matters.
What !? Why !? The whole idea of charging less for people to go to more struggling servers is solely for wvw, that’s all. Anet this will not fix the high pop – low wvw pop situation at all.
Yeah the very few that matter. You know how many hearts and karma merchants the game has? They’re all useless.
And on that note, since the swirl finisher now sucks and basically does nothing. The powerful fire field swirl combo is gone, which just proves it further how useless of hand axe is.
Many people are casual-minded and don’t care to learn on their own. It is sad, yes. Unless anet specifically puts in notes during the even popping up in your face what you should do, it just won’t get any better.
Well it’s clear at this point since Karma income has been nerfed 92% due not having anything to do with it, there could be a new use for karma, specifically all those hearts with the most useless items that you can’t salvage or even vendor after buying. The only good vendors were one’s with fun utility items or masterwork 80 aqua breather, that’s it.
Who else think this way too? Engis have the problem that mostly youre running around with a kit and your main weapon is hidden. Other classes can choose what they look like no matter, we are stuck with the default skins that do get tiresome. I get it would take a lot to make a skinpack but just having some form of selection would be very naic.
So we buy skin set from gemstore, or transmute stones.
Would still very much like an answer to this; Can I use a transmute splitter to recover skins which were originally convertable to PVP so I can use them in pvp?
No, they will remain a pve item.
Man that’s gotta be annoying. I already feel like Volcanus not having an icon is really annoying but that’s on a new level.
I think it’s skin based. Levvi’s detector definitely has this problem for example.
Good post and I agree. What odd is that for the tequatl fight, there are guilds dedicated to killing it which are public, but they do require management and they clutter up the guild system, which already ultra-cluttered, to even a greater degree. What the heck?
Also the updates lack that consitency and instead some end up being complete fillers while the small portion are actually worth it all. So it’s a very uneven experience which is never a very good thing for a constant enjoyment of the game.
And the gemstore needs to stop being so integral to every update. Without it you miss a huge portion of the new contents rewards so to say and feel a little lacking if you can acquire none of it. It should be available in more forms than just the store.

Hi anet, I heard the male set has loads more clipping issues that aren’t apparent in female version.
It’s time to fix this cultural TIER THREE armor.
200 mf here, barely any rare drops
I win.
What the heck? I didn’t know that.. I understand to a degree when they won’t fix new gemstore sets for characters like charr, but to not properly fix Cultural Tier 3 is absolutely stupid.
The neck piece still bothers me to no end on Female T3 so I can’t get that either and apparently switching to Male won’t do any good either? Blah.
Post best servers to bandwagon to please, DB is royally destroyed. Bonus points for maguuma appearance!
The male version is the same exact one with shoulder/chest, what are you on about?
You’re talking as if they have somehow limited how you used to always re-trait. You /don’t/ need to spend money on it. The silver cost remains the same as ever. If they REPLACED map travel cost with gem cost, then yeah, I’d be upset. If they added a way to use gems as an alternative to that cost, like an item that teleported you to a specific waypoint when you used it, then I’d have absolutely no problem with that.
They have NOT made anything MORE tedious at all though. Instead they added something you can spend some money on for relatively negligible convenience and thereby support the game. I think that’s awesome, and shows that their priorities are in the right place.
You think it’s awesome? I guess that means you’ll be buying them? There is no way I will; and this offering makes me less likely to buy gems from them in the future. I spent a lot of time and money, but it was fun at the time.
A consumable for trait resets doesn’t make the game more tedious — but it does seem to kill the hope I had that it’d get better.
Personally — I hate being forced to make a choice between wasting money and wasting time — having that decision thrust into my face is a constant irritant. Previously it wasn’t a choice as they didn’t have functionality for resetting traits in the field; now that they do, I either have to pretend that this doesn’t exist or stew.
My objection to this is that — based on my personal response — I think it’s a poor business decision. If you or others respond by spending cash to buy these and are happy to have them in the gem store, then perhaps I’m wrong — and if that’s the case, have fun.
But I get the impression that you’re probably defending this offering out of loyalty, rather than happiness at seeing this in the gem store. If that’s the case, consider that my comments might be sincere.
You wouldn’t believe the lengths people go on defending this sort of business practice. A well written reply, ought to be replied by someone who will just dismiss your opinion once again with a simple convenience argument that practically holds no merit.

Please show your support, it’s not nice we have to deal with broken Tier 3 armor!
On female asurans the Tier 3 Light set has been bugged for as long as I remember, isn’t it about time it gets fixed?
The problem is for some reason the neck part is glitched on the chest piece, so its oversized and goes through shoulder armor and even inside the middle of it, making all possible shoulders pieces disappear when using the chest-piece.
Even the actual cinematics with Zojja, one of the main characters, has the issue.
With the glitch
https://dviw3bl0enbyw.cloudfront.net/uploads/forum_attachment/file/25069/gw019.jpg
Males are completely unaffected as you can see on the T3 preview images here
http://gw2.unfair.co/cosmetic/guild-wars-2-asura-cultural-armor-sets/
Edit: I noticed in this thread someone posted shots of their T3 light female character and the glitch doesn’t seemed to have occured at some point in time.

Or 4 gold.
FOUR GOLD.
ONE TIME USE.
Lewl?
WHEN IT’S READY!!!!!!!!!!!!
You, sir, are a winner!
Eh talking about “unsoulbinding” items just makes the point even more apparent. This system is extremely messy, conveluted and relies far too much on the gemstore.
