Possible new item: "Bloated Head Tonic"

On april 1st, there were this magnificent giant bloated heads on all characters ingame as a joke.Still, I keep on laughing reviewing the screenshots I made.

I would GLADLY pay some gems if A-Net decides to provide us with a “Bloated head Tonic” or however they would call it through the gemstore.

Is this possible?

Got my traits nice and easy, no bugged event at all…cannot recognize the OP’s complains..
About experimenting..that stops as soon as a player finds the right combination for him/herselves..so calling the “lack of experimenting” limited is void IMO.

Placed a buy order of 843 Gold on “the Legend”
Decided to withdraw that one cuz well..it took too long (yes..I am impatient)
Bought 20 Monsoons and 20 bramblethone for the insane amount of around 3G each
At the Mystic toilet on the 4th try…I got The Legend…so now I was overjoyed and salvaged the rest..
one happy bugger here!

Well..I threw in a couple of Monsoons (Staff) and received The Legend after 4 tries…so the only change I saw was that I was obviously on Zomoros’ good side that day

But seriously..same weapon type will receive same weapon type..and hopefully the prec one

There is no wrong or right about this IMO

In every game I’ve played where levelling was present, the fun only starts after reaching a certain level..(better gear/magic/power/unicorns..whatever..) if someone new is already demotivated bij not reaching the first 30 in GW2 ..well..maybe it is just not his/her game? I would consider it a challenge..

NEW World Bosses are crap

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: JCROY.5730

JCROY.5730

As in title new WB system is totally crap.
3.
Another issue is TIME of special WBs

“The following extra-hard world bosses will occur at specific times, interrupting the standard rotation:
Karka Queen (Southsun Cove)
03:30 PDT – 12:30 gmt+2 – WORK/SCHOOL time
09:00 PDT – 18 gmt+2 – Comming back from work time
19:00 PDT – 4 gmt+2 – Sleeping time
Tequatl the Sunless (Sparkfly Fen)
04:30 PDT – 13:30 gmt+2 – WORK/SCHOOL time
10:00 PDT – 19 gmt+2 – finally can do this!
20:00 PDT – 5 gmt+2 – WORK/SCHOOL time or sleeping time/standing up to school/work
Triple Trouble (Bloodtide Coast)
05:30 PDT – 14:30 gmt+2 WORK/SCHOOL time
11:00 PDT – 20 gmt+2 usually people have guild missions/guild raids(like me in HC WvW/GvG guild)
21:00 PDT – 6 gmt+2 – WORK/SCHOOL time or sleeping time/standing up to school/work”

Totally Agree! those with jobs or school in the EU get screwed over by this during the week, so now this is only possible on a weekend.

You serious? I have a fulltime job, a wife, a kid, lots of music activities and play gw2 around 3-5 hours a day…and yes..I DO sleep at night around 7-8 hours
It is called planning and prioritizing, it can be learned

There were people in Gendarran Fields asking how to make money outside of champ farm.
#Priceless.

Wait! I got this one..

1. get a real job
2. wait for wages to come in end of the month
3. pay your bills
4. with he remaining money, buy gems and revert those to gold (if the remaining money is not sufficient, repeat step 1 to 3)

Done!

guys there is a way to farm champ! let’s try to make new route. let’s do like Kill all champ at frostgorge. teleport to Cursed Shore kill all champ there and than come back to Frostogorge!
1 run in Frostgorge = 7 min 1 run in Cursed Shore = 8 min = 15 min total. Group event Spawn time is 15 min. So WE Can do that. we will spend a bit more for waypoints, but we will get more silver as a reward for complete group event!

Good constructive reply…clone yourself, we need more peeps like you; think solutions, not issues (no..no sarcasm )

Did you really expect A-net to hold you personal life-schedule in consideration? Really ?
And besides..the bosses are on rotation..if even this recurring schedule doesn’t fit for you…well..maybe make some priorities about whether to play the game or not me thinks..

No they do not…newcomers will be faced with the new trait system and have no recognition with the old one..(and therefore no demotivational issues..they just don’t know better )
Unless you define newcomers as "people who recently joined in and are already facing these huge changes)…which IMO are not newcomers..but thats a matter of subject

DPS cuts? WHAT DPS cuts? We ran some dungeons yesterday and noticed a few things..
(AC Path 1)
- Mobs became kitten…we were with a guild party of 4 people (instead of 5) and while two of us were fighting some gravelings, the other two sat down and were laughing..still we went through it like an incinnerator through snow..whilst doing normal DPS (no cutbacks noticed, no complaining here)
- the new thiefskill changes spongebob squishy thief into a tank…go with Fiery greatsword or S/P skill 3 instantly renews the healthpool (not complaining either)
- The fact that a dungeon is easier to run makes you think to do it over and over again..but the rewards for doing it the second time the same day are very much downgraded..which is good IMO

And overall…although the patch download time seemed to be very small…there are A LOT of details and handling changed and with care…so very great Job A-Net !

Just thinking of smt…would it be convenient to just add a kinda passphrase/password option before someone is entering a guildvault? a passphrase made up bij the guild’s council, so, in case of loss/hacked acounts, other guildmembers can change it asap?

(The mechanics are there already..think of deleting/destroying an accountbound item..before you can do that, you have to type the name of the object you want to delete/destroy.)

Can you have 2 accounts?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: JCROY.5730

JCROY.5730

To approach the question from a slightly different angle the only thing you can’t do is use a macro program to control both at once. It’s part of the 1 key press = 1 action rule.

If you’re logged into two accounts and controlling one the other one should be standing still or running in a straight line on auto-run. If you set it up so both move, fight, loot etc. together then that’s against the rules and could get you banned.

Which is a kitten shame, since I want to RP 2 of my characters at the same time. sigh

That would be awesome (and against TOS maybe?)..imagine you having 50 accounts…you could run a full zerg ON YOUR OWN LOL

Warrior crafting. Advice needed.

in Crafting

Posted by: JCROY.5730

JCROY.5730

As for me, I made some “logical” decisions about crafting:
Thief: Artificer and jeweller (cause you know..thiefs love shinies )
Guardian: Weaponsmith and Armorsmith (Closest disciplines about crafting and use)
Ranger: Huntsman and Leatherworking (Because rangers hunt and use natural fabrics)
Warrior: Cooking and tailoring (Warrior is kinda posh/tough guy..loves food and drinks and dresses nice LOL)

Of course, this makes only sense in my own little world, but for me it works..I never have to look which discipline I have on what char..I just switch to this specific char if I need something crafted (actually my ranger isn’t even geared…he’s just fulltime in The Grove at the crafting stations)

Just for my info..why is having a legendary so important? Is it just the achievement? Is it the changeable stats? The looks?
As for the upper reasons, speaking for myself:
Achievement: I couldn’t care less
Changeable stats: Great…since it most of the time players choose to have assassin or berserker..and does it really hit that much harder then ascended/exotic?
Looks: I have greenies with better looks then the legendaries..but thats a matter of taste

So again..why is this so important?

human achievement is always relative to what others have acheived, also known as “bragging rights”

If everyone had a legendary, nobody would be making one. I reckon only 1% of the playerbase has a legendary, and that’s why people find it so important to have one, it’s the prestige, it’s the exclusivity.

I guess that 1% playerbase is in my guild…LOL

1% of 2 million players is around 20,000 players.

does your guild have 20,000 players?

Almost…LOL
No, but statistics of 1% don’t apply to my guild…We have around 200+ active members and I am sure at least 20 of them own a legendary..or even more then one.

Yesterday, I did the Sapphire Sanctum JP (Abaddon Borderlands) in order to get my WvW achievement .
There were some enemies from Abaddon in there too. First time I was halfway, 2 of them knocked me all the way down so I had to start all friggin’ over!!

I decided to gamble; took of almost all of my gear (except pants ) and went for it again.

Those same two Abaddonista’s showed up again and this time…they recognized me and saw me wearing almost no gear/weapon and LET ME PASS to finish my JP and thus reaching my achievement.

Respect guys for noticing me not wanting to fight but finish the JP ! You are truly an honourable enemy understanding te principles of the war and game

Since playing this great game, I learned and experienced that getting help in PVE is absolutely a must have for low level chars at times.

Occasionaly, I meet these fellow gamers from time to time and when roaming low and mid-level maps with my LVL 80 Guardian, I often am pleased to help out those new players.

Think of this kitten skillpoint locations guarded by veterans, heart completions that are crawling with interrupting mobs, hard to reach vista’s , plain map completion etc.. Also general game info thats missing in the mind of new players.

So, if you are looking for some help, just whistle. Lot of things I can do for you out there in the PvE world.

There are two kinds of infusions BASICALLY…a variety of “standard” infusions and those you can craft yourself as an Artificer (crafting lvl 100).
The standard are the ones you put in “normal” ascended gear. The self-mades, you need to have (infused) gear.
Selfmade infusions can go up to A LOT AR..but you need to be richer then Bill gates atm hahaha

If you use a transmutation stone you can choose all combinations IMO.
If I read well, you have two ascended swords..a white and a red one, right ?
Just put those two in your inventory, use a transmutation crystal lvl80 (the light blue ones, not the yellow ones) and drag both swords in the appearing Transmuting frame. Then you can mix ‘n’ match however you like.
What you are basically doing is use one sword as a skin whilst maintaining the stats of the other.
