Hmm. I didn’t get that from the post. He said his PvE Guild was on another server, so he never joined them.

But, whatever. It doesn’t matter, really. Just offering the information that one needs not be on the same server to join, or participate, in a PvE Guild. Except for one Guild, which isn’t ‘based’ on my server, I have no idea which servers the Guilds I belong to are on, lol.

The nodes that are a rare drop from Black Lion Chests change with the BLC offerings. Thus, given enough time, each node should make an appearance, I’d guess.

Don’t we get to choose the category of materials to salvage in PoF? I mean they had those named caches, or whatever they were called, so you could choose what kind of mats you received.

Perhaps, that will help address the issue. /shrug

But, there is no reason to ‘jump servers to be in a PvE Guild’, as all PvE maps are shared. A player can reside on a different server and still rep 100% if they so choose. The only thing that servers affect is WvW.

You can either try the suggestions above, or try updating your ticket to inform the CS Team you didn’t receive the near-immediate automated response. (Of course, if something is interfering with their responses, updating your ticket from that email address may not solve the issue.) Only the CS Team can assist you.

Pof standard for gems at anytime?

No, it will not be able to be purchased for Gems, just as Heart of Thorns is not able to be purchased for Gems. What you see in the Gem Store is the upgrade to the Deluxe Edition from Standard (for Core, Heart of Thorns, and Path of Fire).

A person must pay cash for the (no-restrictions)Core game, for Heart of Thorns, and for Path of Fire.

One thing to check is to make sure your in-game audio settings match your OS settings and your physical audio set-up. For example, if you use a 2.1 sound system, make sure the OS audio system is set to 2.1, as well as the in-game settings. Same for headphones, 5.1, 8.1, etc.

Good luck.

You can always submit a ticket anonymously, or check your email for responses. It’s not required to log-in to communicate with the CS Team.

And, many of us posting have had our accounts banned, and then re-instated by the CS Team for various reasons (such as RMT-trading). Although it can take some time, the CS Team is usually quite helpful. =)

Also, make sure your email account is secure. Compromised game accounts are often accompanied by email account compromises, and as such, the usurper intercepts all email correspondence from ArenaNet. It would be best to change the passwords on all sensitive accounts.

It seems the payment provider, Digital River, is sometimes leery of multiple purchases (anything over 2). (There’s a few posts about multiple purchase issues.) It may just be a matter of having your purchase verified. It may take a few days, but should be sorted out, if that’s the problem.

Good luck.

Sometimes, when there is a dispute between 2 people over ownership of an account (they both provide documentation), the account will be closed. It’s unfortunate for the true owner, but it’s the only thing that can be done.

Make sure your email account hasn’t been compromised, as well, as the usurper can intercept all correspondence from the CS Team. Also, the usurper can get access to reciepts, etc. if stored in the email account.

Good luck.

I guess you missed the ‘probably’. No matter. They do usually take longer, unless you are suggesting the CS Team no longer takes great care in determining the actual account owner.

Still, just like your lovely in-game mails, I’m always intrigued by what you have to say.

My apologies for giving a time period, though it was merely estimated from reading so many posts and threads on the topic.

Here is a quote from an actual ArenaNet employee that may, OP, put your mind at rest a bit:

As we’ve consistently explained, restorations do take longer than a normal ticket, due to the research involved.

Now, a restoration is not the same as determining account ownership, but both require more research than a ‘regular’ ticket. I’m almost positive there is/are quote(s) addressing this, but I’m a bit tired of searching.

Be as that may, the point is the the CS Team, most likely, has not forgotten you, but due to the complexity of determining account ownership, and the extra high volume at this time, the response time for tickets is, unfortunately, extremely long.

Again, my apologies for the wording of my (meant to be helpful) post.

Good luck.

It’s just a guideline, not a promise.

Just an FYI: Compromised account issues have always taken longer to resolve; probably averaging 7 days when ticket resolutions are at the usual 3 days. Thus, it is not unusual for a compromised account issue to run longer than the average for common ticket issues.

Good luck.

Mercs for Hire

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

When Heroes were added to Guild Wars, the whole game changed. No longer did we call on game friends to fill spots for Missions. We just used Heroes.

It really was a sad day for Guild Wars.

Thus, I don’t think ‘Mercs’ would be a good idea for Guild Wars 2.

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I don’t know; you don’t really need a good population, as every map is instanced. Heroes and Henchmen take the place of players in those maps. I suppose what a bigger population offers is more people to trade with, to bypass some of the requirements to fill the Hall of Monuments. And, maybe, a couple of HM Missions that require 2 or more players. Still, I think there are enough possible avenues to get points (just as with Mastery Points in GW2) that that would not be a deterrent.

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

No problem.

Guild Wars became a mostly-solo game with the introduction of Heroes. It really changed how we played way back then. If you want the rewards, it should not be too difficult to attain the 30 HoM points. GWAMM, on the other hand, takes quite a bit more effort.

Do keep in mind: Guild Wars is a completely different game than Guild Wars 2. It’s not just a older. less up-to-date version of GW2. Still, it brought many players years of enjoyment.

There used to be a 10-day? 10-hour? trial. I don’t know if it is still offered. If so, you could check GW out that way.

Good luck.

Nothing, absolutely nothing, is saved from anything done with a Demo character or on a Demo map. Regardless how it was acquired, or what it was. No need to bank/save/anything else any item your character acquired.

As for making so much more money? They will make money when you purchase Guild Wars Prophesies, Factions, Nightfall and/or Eye of the North.

Good luck.

IF I purchase those but if I don’t then they wouldn’t either.

And you will not reap the rewards, as it should be. These are Guild Wars Vets rewards, and like the Celebration Hat, etc., should only be attainable by completing the reward requirements.

Magic Find Question

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

Here’s what the Wiki states:

Magic Find is both an account bonus and a character attribute that increases the chance to receive higher-quality loot from slain foes. With a couple of exceptions, it does not affect containers (including champion loot bags), chests, or any other source of loot. The exceptions are:

NPC loot containers received from reward tracks, which simulate loot drops from the named NPCs.
Divine Lucky Envelopes during Lunar New Year
Heart of Thorns meta event participation containers.

Good luck.

Why? Because it was promised those rewards would only ever be attainable through playing Guild Wars (One). A nod of thanks to all the Guild Wars players that went through a 5-year content drought (more or less) waiting for GW2. Those rewards should never be placed in the Gem Store.

Its really weird how english naming has hard restrictions, and in the other hand other language, like french, don’t have.

Here are some translation of french REAL players name i’ve seen (i’ve got to add some “*” instead some letters, sry)

=> B* at*h
=> Iam a bî**h
=> S**k m* d**k

I’m a part of this kind of player who are really chocked to see so much rude names who haven’’t be blocked or moderate in game.

If possible, in the future, report such names with the in-game reporting system.

You can remake them, if you have 2 empty character slots. Of course, the new remade characters won’t come with all the features of a demo character, such as instantly being L80, nor all the goodies packages. (You can somewhat recreate that feature by using any available L80 Boosts you might possess, of course.)

Good luck.

MOST games have test clients that are not apart of the main game. So they don’t interfere with anything.

Yep so does this one. It’s just not a PUBLIC test server

They are not test servers, they are test instances. Full game play is not possible so most bugs are missed since characters do not have full progression such as story, etc.

How do you know this? Are you a playtester breaking the NDA?

What to spend gems on for a new player

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Inculpatus cedo.9234

Inculpatus cedo.9234

I would save the Gems until you are more familiar with the game, if new. See how the game works and determine your needs/desires. Wait until the expansion launches, and see what’s on offer, then. Investigate (through the Wiki or other sources) all that has been offered before that might catch your eye, and wait for it to be offered again.

There’s really no rush to spend. I certainly would have purchased, and did purchase, different things when new than I would and do today. I’ve yet to purchase any character bag slots. I’ve nearly maxed out my bank slots. I purchased the Copper-fed, but don’t use it that much. Maybe when there is a solution for all the minor sigils/runes, I will start using it more. I don’t know.

(I do love my Unbreakable Tools, though.)

Welcome to Tyria (if applicable), and good luck.
