Children shouldn’t be gambling.
v That too.
This game is not for children; it is for young adults.
Yes, but does that mean people follow the ESRB ratings? Barely. My youngest guild member is 12 and the youngest person I have talked to in game is 7. Whether anyone believes it or not, children play this game.
Your argument is that we shouldn’t implement a design because people who shouldn’t be playing the game in the first place, would be exposed to it. Seriously…?
In that defense, there shouldn’t be swearing, drinking, theft, murder, violence, abuse, suicide, sexuality, and the big one, love. That’s the cruelest temptress of them all.
You nailed it.
Any moderator or developer that can help me with this? I have removed all my traits gear and buffs.
- First I ate a bowl of meat fire chili and my signet of fire went from 9 s to 10 and 1/4 s
- Then I wore 2 superior baelfire for 15% more burn duration but the signet of fire remained at 10 and 1/4 s
- Then I removed the meat fire chili buff and kept only the 2 superior runes of baelfire and the “signet of fire” dropped to 9s
Thus, I think the baelfire signets are bugged. Please fix this as I relay only on fire duration for wvw.
I am aware of the time remaining that is displayed when you hover over a condition on a target but that has never shown fractional time as far as I am aware and it still doesn’t.
Not going to try the PvE versions of those runes to test but the PvP versions of those runes DO work. With that rune set and no other source of burning/condition duration Signet of Fire applies a 13s burn. 9*1.45 = 13.05(it does not show the 0.05). The what does show up as a bug is that the skill hover tooltip does not update properly and it also rounds(my SoF burns for 10.8 but it displays as 10 and 3/4).
If your condition duration and burning duration combined is 60% then Signet of Fire’s burn time should be 14.4 not 16.4.
ok, ok, ok… now im going nuts… the game is behaving weird. Now, if i only eat the bowl of fire meat chili the burning duration is correctly calculated and updated to show the 15% burning duration, but when I put 2 superior runes of baelfire for 15% burn duration, the skills that burn do not update and do not make the condition last longer.
I think the bug is caused by the runes and not by the fire meat chili.
Overreaction much? The OP suggested a limit of 10 tickets per character per week, bought with in-game money. It’s not like RS’s squeal of fortune where you can buy as many as you like, and have to use real money.
Secondly, I was well aware of the lottery since I was tiny. It tends to be plastered over the news and tv, and ads on newsagents, year in year out. I’m pretty sure most children are quite familiar with the concept. Also, isn’t GW2 rated 13+? If you’re letting young kids play it, your moral high ground as a parent isn’t looking so great at the moment.
Maybe there are good economic reasons not to implement a lottery; though if the jackpot came purely from the amount of the entry fee, it’d just be a redistribution of wealth. No more game breaking than selling a legendary on the tp.
Over reaction indeed, i don’t understand why some people wont like the idea of a lottery? Probably they thought the lottery would use real money; if the lottery were to use real money then I would also disagree on implementing one, but if the lottery were to use in-game gold to buy the tickets then what is the problem?
Hmm … actually you have left out the relevant information for fixing this.
There could be a bug in
1) the skill
2) the runes
3) the food
4) all of the aboveI’ve just checked this myself while murdering Fireflies and it doesn’t show any of the the subsecond times. If would be much easier to test using all 4 hits from Drake’s Breath anyway. If the buffs ARE working then you should see a 16s burn by the time Drake’s Breath ends. If the buffs are NOT working then you should see a 12s burn by the time Drake’s Breath ends.
To see the timer, you need to hover over the condition on the target. I have been testing a couple of skills and so far I was able to determine that SOME of the skills that burn indeed are working correctly, but sadly, some are not. For example:
“Signet of fire” when it burns a target, the burning duration is always 10.25 seconds.
in my case, i have 60% burning duration which means the skill should last for 16.4 seconds.
I am using superior runes of: 2 bealfire, 2 baltahzar, 2 flame legion, and eating bowl of fire meat chili.
combined gives me 60% burning duration.
3.5 sounds like you are looking at the skill info tooltip. Many of those are actually are actually wrong/does not update to reflect changes. They certainly need to be fixed but if it is just the tooltip it is not as big of a problem.
On the other hand an elementalist who sticks to just fire is going to have problems regardless …
No, a timer appears on the target; there you can see the burning last for the time specified. The time does not change regardless of how many % burning duration you have.
This is obviously a bug since it is not working as intended.
If you put 15% burning duration, then you should expect the condition to last 4 seconds.
If you eat, put runes and achieve a 60% burning duration, then the total time should be 5.6 seconds, but you don’t see that happening. Hence, it is a bug that needs to be fixed asap.
Putting runes with 15% burning duration and eating food that grants 15% burning duration does not change the burning duration inflicted.
for example: Drakes breath has a burning duration of 3.5 seconds but after eating food and putting runes that supposedly increase burning duration, the condition still last for 3.5 seconds.
this bug needs to be fixed asap on the next patch or build since fire elementals relay solely on this condition damage.
Yes.. lets just brain wash the children into the lovely habit of “gambling”
If you are going to argue for something start by arguing the use of alcohol in this game, besides, this game is not for children; it is for young adults.
Sorry, what’s the bad thing about this that children shouldn’t see?
Children shouldn’t be gambling.
v That too.
This game is not for children; it is for young adults.
Gambling must be a must in every MMORPG; a world without gambling is a world with out fun.
Create a Mega Millions Lottery so that the odds of winning the lottery are equal to or higher than the Mega Millions Lottery.
- Allow players to buy 10 or less tickets per week per account(not per character) for the minimum of 1 copper.
- Make the lottery a real replica of the Mega Millions Lottery.
- Allow players the choice to randomly select the numbers or manually select them.
- If there is a winner, put them on the ingame messages or let people know who the Millionaire is.
- Take “taxes” of the price just like in the real lottery.
Any developer saw this post? I am very disappointed by this bug, it is very frustrating to have to empty one slot when you want to change armor.
If your bags are full and you want to change weapon A to weapon B or if you want to change armor A to armor B, it won’t let you. This problems happened since the game upgrades. As of now, if I want to change clothes or weapons, you need to delete one of those good items that you saved for 1 year because you really like them.
In other words,
full bag = no armor can be equipped, no weapon can be equipped.
At least 1 empty sloth in bag = armor can be equipped and weapons can be equipped
After joining a team, a message appears to go inside the dungeon; but if you click on it to go in nothing happens.
Possible cause:
The team is already inside the dungeon when you join the team.
Runs now award 30 tokens after doing path 1 multiple times on different characters.
I did path 1 on warrior and got 60 tokens, then changed to my elemental and got 30 tokens, then changed to my archer and got 30 tokens, then changed to my mezmer and got 30 tokens.
The bug only happens if the runs are quick!
I am new to forums and posting stuff on them, so let me know if this is the right place:
Anyway, imagine how awesome it would be if you could create a lottery just like Mega millions.
Some limitations would apply of course:
If there is a winner, take “taxes” out of the total amount.
Allow only 10 tickets to be bought for each player so that there is not an over abuse and an advantage over other players.
Developers let your imagination run wild.
Excess gold? What’s that?
The excess gold created by farmers and glitch users that use exploits for gold farming.

When trying to defend from invaders the aof spells turn red and cannot be cast from the top of towers, BUT the invaders elemental and archers can cast spells and hit the defenders on the towers and walls.
Also, the spells are blocked from the top of the tower but not from the bottom to the top.
As an experiment a friend of mine tried to hit me from his ground position and he scored, but while i was being it i casted spells and it said “obstacle” or something like that.
I am looking for a guild that has lots of members and does lots of dungeon runs.
Any guild that does not discriminate on the level for dungeon runs?
Why not have an automatic grouping in dungeons? The current method of finding a group requires minutes and even hours of waiting and spamming the map chat.
This is ridiculous!
Jesus Christ…. seriously, this game sucks… games should be fan and not stressing. on top of that you get silence if you type the same message “lfg ac exp” this is over the limit.
Change this crap or change the mechanics of finding a group…

in PvP there is a vendor that sets up teams, but in dungeons I cannot find any vendors that set up teams.
Please help, every time I go in dungeon it is only me and it says it is recommended 5 others. I always get killed on the first mobs
