You have resurrected a 4-year old thread that has nothing to do with the way Servers work now.

Since both Servers chosen are in the same region (NA), you can play together anywhere in the game world with the exception of WvW. (Players in different regions can not play together in PvE maps.) You both travel to the same map, and if you find you are not together, join up in a party, right-click on their name, and choose ‘Join (friend) in Map’.

The Wiki is a great resource for all things Guild Wars 2 (link above).

Good luck.

But, ArenaNet never said there would not be Mounts. What they did say was, “There will be no Mounts at launch.”

Thus, it’s a bit different than when they have spoken about capes or separating Outfits into Armor pieces, etc.

One needs to remember to differentiate between actual Dev quotes/statements, and playerbase opinion/rumor that somehow becomes ‘fact’ once it’s repeated enough.

I imagine it will be like when White Wings were first introduced. They were everywhere, but as time passed, the fad kind of wore off.

Thus, do expect to see Mounts everywhere at first.

Will PoF include a new renderer?

Some players do accomplish 60+ frame rates with their hardware. So, it’s not like everyone only gets 25 FPS.

Even I, on my potato computer, can do better than 25 FPS.

Regardless, at this time, there will be no new engine. Maybe, if and when, there is a GW3.

^If they bundled the Living World Seasons with the expansions (at an increased price), there would possibly be ‘concerns’ from new players that purchased said bundle, and then found out they could have acquired the LW Seasons at no cost through the Gold-to-Gems exchange.

The answer to your query is: no.

There have been update to graphics recently, though. And the Devs are always creating new tools to work with the engine and accomplish amazing things.

Good luck.

P.S. There are some other threads about this issue, one not too distant, if you wish to see other opinions on the topic. (Google Search will supply them, if interested.)

I think the ‘jumping ahead’ to HoT to unlock Masteries is only an issue for those wishing to Raid, or at least dabble in Raiding. Many don’t care to. Otherwise, once all other Masteries are filled, XP doesn’t matter, anyway.

Autoloot & PoF definitive answer please, ANet

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Autoloot in PvE is tied to Heart of Thorns, as one must own HoT to access Masteries.

I’m guessing those Masteries will continue to be tied to HoT, just like Gliding and obtaining Guild Halls, Gen1 Elite Specialization, Legendary Crafting, etc., but the Devs haven’t made a statement that I know of, yet.

Path of Fire is going to have masteries for mounts at the least. Do you honestly think that mounts will be unusable without HoT because you believe HoT will have the whole mastery system locked to it? Think for a second.

Try reading the whole thread.

Thanks for the feedback, though.

Regarding the upcoming expansion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

You will need to purchase Path of Fire for access to the new Elite Specializations and Mounts.

You ‘win’ new Elite Specializations and Mounts, as well as everything else included in the expansion, as well as what is released in the next Living World Season.

Guild Wars 2/Core Tyria is fun and rewarding…up to a point. You win a great time playing in the Core maps; you lose any new content tied to expansions.

Good luck.

32 bit client vs 64 bit client

I use the 32-bit client, so I’m going to see if it works during the Beta Weekend. If not, I’ll just have to use the 64-bit client.

I really prefer the 32-bit client, though.

PoF purchase - When do Gems arrive?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I think they mean activation of the Serial Key (creating or upgrading the account), though I always thought it was 72 hours after purchase. Still, they can’t send the Gems to an account that hasn’t been activated, so I guess that makes more sense.

Perhaps, it’s the percentile. Maybe it shows ‘need upgrade’ for anything below 25th percentile. Never mind, don’t know how I missed you have 34th percentile. Duh. Maybe it’s Disk Space? Yours doesn’t show.

I just ran it on my potato computer, and I passed.

You Have: AMD A8-4500M APU with Radeon™ HD Graphics
30th percentile
You Have: 1.9 GHz

I was a little worried about my graphics card, but my shaders bypass requirements and I have plenty of dedicated RAM.

If the CS Team gave you a green flag, I wouldn’t worry about this site. You can always test it next weekend during the Beta Weekend. That’s what I’m going to do.

Good luck.

Multiple characters with the same job?

Another use for extra characters is a L53 or so character to open Champion Bags. Or a L21 character parked at a JP for Silver Doubloons. Or a character parked at a certain farm. There are many use possibilities for extra characters.

I have 5 Rangers (used for different purposes), lol.

Retail/Boxed Copy of Path of Fire

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Thanks for reminding me that Anet likes to have separate FAQs for their expansions/games.

FAQ says:

“Q: Will Path of Fire only be available digitally, or will there be a boxed edition as well?

A: Path of Fire is available primarily as a digital download. Please visit our official site for a full list of the available editions and exclusive bonus items, or click here to find other official retailers."

I checked, there will be boxed (Australia has EB Games and JB Hi-Fi listed for a retail location, and beside the selection is digital downloads for only EB Games.)

So I think yes, they do have physical, but not doing a pre-purchase/order/deluxe version.

:(

That site is outdated (meant to be for heart of thorns)

Not out-dated, it’s the new FAQ for Path of Fire.

Unless you mean the list of Official Retailers; no idea if that would change with PoF, it’s possible.

Artificer Crafting Issue...

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Are you sure you are on the character that has 500 Artificer? More than one character can learn a Crafting Discipline.

Check the Character Selection screen for any other characters with the Artificer icon at the bottom of their portrait. Although, you may have changed Crafting Disciplines on a character, and Artificer is not active right now.

Good luck.

No, you will use the GW2 client. There will probably be a patch beforehand, though. But, everyone uses the same client, no matter what content they have purchased/unlocked.

You just need to log-in on that day (or before-hand to download the patch if available).

Only 1 precursor craft ?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

This thread is nearly 2 years old (created in November of 2015). It may be some time before the OP answers, if ever.

Even before HoT Legendaries were released, it was announced that one could only craft one of each Precursor. To craft more than one Legendary of the same kind, one has to rely on drops, the TP (not HoT Legendaries), or the Mystic Forge.

Good luck.

There’s been no mention of any special content for Humans, but we haven’t heard everything from the Devs, yet.

I don’t think you have to change characters. You can always run through the story again with a Human later, if you so desire.

There is, of course, the Human-only new faces and hairstyles, should you wish to create an Elonan.

How does that tie into the title? I’m confused.

They’ve already announced that response times are slower than usual due to increased volume. Also, account ownership often takes longer to validate. The CS Team wants/needs to make sure they are allowing access to the rightful owner.

Well, I did check all (physical) Retailers on the list, and none had anything but Digital Downloads (including the Deluxe Edition), if they offered it at all (some didn’t), even though they were listed as physical retailers.

You will have to check your retailers, as I am not in Australia.

Definitely not an Ultimate Edition.

According the FAQ, it doesn’t look like there are any physical copies to be had. All the retailers I checked (so far) are only selling Digital Downloads. I saw nothing about Pre-purchase offers; anything purchased (ordered) now won’t be charged until release day.

Thus, if you want the Pre-Purchase goodies, it looks like the safest bet is to order from ArenaNet.

what happened to dungeons?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

1. Dungeons aren’t worth it. Really no point other then getting skins and the gold rewards really bad and you can make more doing other things.

2. Group content. Due to the fact you need a group to do many of them it’s hard too get a group together all willing to do it for such a small reward.

3. Why? Why bother with dungeons when we have raids!!*

I remember doing dungeons near release and they were truly a blast. I truly feel the rewards from dungeons are lackluster.

What I want is solo dungeons really badly that then scale with the amount of people in them with rewards that will keep people doing them. I would much much rather do small dungeons with 5 people in them working together over zergs in open world PvE but the devs just killed off dungeons

i do love raids but so far we only have 2 raids so will Anet add more raids then since they killed off dungeons??

Yes, the Devs have stated there will be more Raids…and Fractals released.

Best suggestion to increase outfit sales

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

But, you assume wrong. The native weight of Outfit armor is neither Heavy, Medium, nor Light. It is its own weight. Which is the issue with mixing it with any existing armor(s).
