Special Access Pass: why I've not bought one

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I’ve had a Royal Terrace Pass since they were first released, and I find it one of the, if not the, most convenient items I’ve acquired. I have it in my one-and-only Shared Inventory Slot. I acquired another, much later, and gave it to my Guildie. He thinks it’s great, as well.

I guess everyone has their own particular views about items.

[Bug] Burden of Choice (Blocking Progress)

There’s nothing more to do. The ‘story’ stops there. Perhaps, some day, the ‘Current Events’ will have more content for this ‘story’, but that’s all there is, right now.

Here’s a list of all the Current Events, in case you’ve missed any:

Perhaps, you have a corrupted file; you might consider a -repair of the client (instructions found in the Knowledge Base accessed via the ‘Support’ link above/below and ‘Search – Repair’).

(I’ve not encountered this ‘bird sound’.)

No, NA and EU have the same Dailies. But, Core Tyria and HoT purchasers can have different Dailies, as well as those with sub-L80 only characters.

His timer may have been set up with the previous Dailies, possibly.

Why can't we submit our own guild emblems?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

If I remember correctly, there was a time players could submit designs for Guild logos. And a few were chosen.

Or maybe we just got to ‘vote’ for some new designs to be added. I really don’t remember the details.

I don’t think we will ever be able to use our own designs, for the reasons stated above, and more, but…

Good luck.

"Server time"

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Here are some reset times:

Daily

00:00 UTC (17:00 UTC-7) — Advances login rewards
00:00 UTC (17:00 UTC-7) — Resets daily achievements; certain objects respawn: chests (e.g. from Jumping Puzzles, except for those in World versus World), and event-related interactive objects (Carving Pumpkin, Magic Snow).
00:00 UTC (17:00 UTC-7) — Resets diminishing returns for repeated completions of the same dungeon paths.

Weekly

Friday ~18:00 UTC (11:00 UTC-7) — World versus World reset for EU servers. (The exact time varies from week to week.)
Saturday ~01:00 UTC (18:00 UTC-7) — World versus World reset for NA servers. (The exact time varies from week to week.)
Sunday 00:00 UTC (17:00 UTC-7) — Guild mission rewards reset.

Why is this post giving UTC-7 as an alternate time expression? Is there some reason to think that GW2 players, or gamers, or people in general benefit from hearing schedules in that particular time offset?

Because it was copied from the Wiki, that adjusts to one’s own time zone. I suppose I should have removed the adjustment; I probably didn’t understand the API back then. Also, the original 4+ year-old post asked about UTC (PT). Not that anyone cares about a really old post/thread like this.

My apologies.

You can upgrade from Standard HoT to Deluxe HoT in the Gem Store for, I believe, $35 in Gems. Make sure to choose the HoT Deluxe upgrade, rather than the Core Deluxe upgrade.

Question on Black Lion Chest

As far as I’ve seen, the nodes change when the Black Lion Chest changes. So, each ‘season’.

You can preview the contents with each ‘seasonal’ change to see which nodes are on offer.

No Gift of Explorations w/100% Map Completion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I submitted a ticket already (about a week ago) and got no response. I was hoping posting it on the forums a Dev / GM would see it and be able to help.

Just to be sure…you submitted a ticket using the Web-form accessed via the ‘Support’ link above/below, and not in-game (which is a Bug Report, and will garner no response, as indicated on the Bug Report window), yes?

If you did use the web-form, you can just update your ticket by responding to the automated reply.

Also, is it possible you completed World Completion on both characters some time back, and have just misplaced the Gifts of Exploration? You might use one of the GW2 apps to look through all storage (bank and character).

Good luck.

Impressions Lvl 80 - frustrate and baffle

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Another choice is to play in the other Level 80 Maps for a while. Southsun, Dry Top, The Silverwastes, some of the Season 3 maps, even Frostgorge and the Orr maps.

Jumping right to the Heart of Thorns (core) maps after reaching L80, which you might have accomplished without ever entering a Map above L50-60 can be quite a shock.

Take your time, those maps aren’t going anywhere.

Good luck.

Applied HoT key on wrong account.

There have many many posts about applying the key to the wrong account. The CS Team has been able to help all of those posters, as long as they have had the information to provide to the Team (the Team makes sure they are dealing with the actual account-owner, of course; we would not want it any other way).

You have no worries. =)

The best advice is to create characters, and use weapons, and complete content that you find most fun. It doesn’t matter what others say if you don’t find a game fun. Especially in this game, in leveling up it doesn’t really matter much how you gear up your characters, what build you use, or what weapon you choose.

I don’t even use a ‘build’ and choose my weapons more for looks than function, and I do just fine. Of course, I don’t Raid; it’s not really my thing. /shrug

(On my Necromancer, I use Staff and Axe/something…lol, I can’t even remember, and it’s like my second Main.)

Good luck.

how do you post a picture

in Players Helping Players

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Well, I have to say, the forum is acting a bit odd right now. Took me several tries to get the picture to show up, in fact, it only showed up after I posted a second message. Then, when I tried to delete the second message, it gave an error I’ve never seen: ‘You are not allowed to delete this message.’ But, it did delete the message, so….

Odd behavior.

Edit: It doesn’t have to be a new post; you can edit old posts and add pictures by using the ‘More posting & formatting options…’, as well.

Worst support in any MMO

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

When you were given a refund, did you not get notice that that account was forever void, and could not be re-instated?

I know it states that in the Knowledge Base:

Note: The refund process includes permanent closure of the Guild Wars 2 account. If you wish to continue to play Guild Wars 2, or if you desire to play in the future, you will need to purchase a new serial code and create a completely new account.

I’m sure the CS Team will be able to remove the Serial Key from the closed account and issue you another to create a new account. There are other players they are serving, as well, up to 5000 per day.

Good luck.

What is that annoying ambient music?!?!?!

Funny. There was a previous thread about how cool that sound was, and how it was the music from the Crystal Desert, or, well, I don’t remember, exactly, but some song from GW1.

Glad you figured it out (if that’s the woo-woo/woo-ahh sound the other posters were concerned about).

Raven's spirit glider is too big

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I’m not sure using the Glider necessarily means one does not think it is too big. I bought it, used it (still have it equipped), but think it is too big. Not because of others using it; but on my own screen.

Still, it seems others enjoy the larger size; so I need to either return it, or make my peace with it. /shrug

It’s my understanding that items in the wardrobe can’t be removed. Did they change that? Or are they allowing people to keep skins and get a refund?

Dunno. I’m sure I’ve read some other posts about it; but, maybe my memory is failing, much like other parts of me. Lol.

I will probably just keep it, anyway. Was only a few Gold; the exchange rate has been good, lately.

Who knows what the next Elite Specializations will bring as far as what will be ‘BiS’ profession-wise. You can probably choose anything you find fun.

My choice for a first-time character would be Ranger. Pretty capable, imo, and not too complicated. Condi is pretty big right now, and Rangers have condition-builds, I believe. It’s also fun to charm all the different pets.

Good luck.

Minimum System Requirements is way outdated !

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

I think there’s a disclaimer with the Minimum Requirements that says one may need better specs to play additions to the game. Or something like that.

I played with those specs for the first year, or so. What I have now is not much better; a bit more RAM and a quad-core. /shrug
