I wouldn’t mind if they made other tonics usable in combat. It’d certainly do a lot for those wanting to play as Quaggan, Skritt, and especially Kodan!
I don’t mind Lord Faren becoming a major character. After all, his Brock-like personality (and bisexuality??) makes him miles more interesting than any of the other characters in the story.
Her invasion felt kinda abrupt, but I’m not quite ready to call yet a villain sue yet. We don’t know anything about her.
For all we know, Scarlet isn’t the real nemesis.
It DOES seem improbable and shoe-horned though. You’re telling me she was a prodigy who graduated all Asuran colleges, trained by the charr legions, and so on and so on? And ye we NEVER heard of her before? Honestly, they should have left that bit out.
Boxes dropped from Queen’s Gauntlet no longer contain coin. However, the first time you kill each boss each day will grant more coin than it did before.
Killing each boss once per day will be more profitable than it was previously.
Josh, we love you and your team and their work on Super Adventure Box.
Colin, judging from the feedback I would assume most people prefer the old system.Perhaps you may consider it? I’m sure Karma boosters were good for your sales?
Anyways, thank you very much for addressing this issue on the forum. I also bought a karmic infusion and other consumables hoping to gamble Orrian Jewelry Boxes, so I was very disappointed with this update.
This was a nerf to karma Jewel boxes. Originally you could stack 95%+ Karma Buff, and have a continuous cycle of regaining karma back when it gave you vials of karma. Doing so allowed you to make up to 20g in only a few minutes of left-clicking hundreds of Orrian Jewel Boxes.
Proud to say I’ve done it, and sad to see it gone. But I guess it was kinda excessive.
Calm down forum warriors, the skins drop as random loot, you can buy them off TP if you choose to do so.
Except the Black Lion Ticket Scraps are designed as a way to pressure people to buy more chests, otherwise their droprate wouldn’t be so low. Many people fall for that trap.
Your relationship with game developers has in large part changed from “I give you the most fun experience possible in exchange for your money” to “I cleverly trap as much of the experience as possible with cash shop transactions while trying to put in enough fun to keep you around to land on those traps.”
Pretty much this.
This is what happens when companies treat their fans like consumers. And while their fans ARE consumers, they’re still fans. Shouldn’t they deserve a little respect?
Honestly, GW2 is really starting to feel like a cash ploy more than a game. I mean, yeah, sure they need to make money, but I already paid my $60!
Sure, they could use the argument that “you don’t need to buy the keys”, but you can’t really escape the gem store unless you want to use Pearl weapons.
Now they’re adding beloved GW1 skins to RNG boxes they KNOW have horrible chances, made for the sole purpose of exploiting people with a gambling problem?
That chilling fact really makes me love GW2 a lot less, and it’s quite hard to “immerse” knowing that.
For those of us who quit Liadri this year, any confirmation whether she will return next year, and whether we will be able to get the achievement then?
Because someone on the ANET team thinks we get excited for time-gated content. They think it makes us feel like we’re “progressing” and that we care about it.
OH BOY, LOOK AT ME! I’M PROGRESSING DADDY, I’M PROGRESSING!
Everlasting ale of the Irongut
“The family heirloom of Adnul Irongut passed from generation to generation, this seemingly everlasting glass of ale is too potent for any mere mortal to drink.”
They could always bring back Risen Tybalt, since we found a way to restore their free will in Arah p3.
It would actually be quite cool to have a zombie sidekick, and could be a vital plot device for crossing the Desolation in the eventual Elona expansion.
And you leave out the people that were in the priory. Sylvari cant become risen, so Sieran is just gone. We get no zombie sidekick.
Sieran could’ve been captured as an informant or something. Since she was also “under Zhaitan’s wing”, it could imply she was hidden somewhere as their prisoner.
Forgal probably can’t be resurrected, but he could be visitted inside the mists. Perhaps an epic quest to find him inside the Hall of Heroes could be one story arc. Just because he’s dead doesn’t mean he is gone permanently. He could fulfill a role similar to Obi-wan.
I could definitely see them bringing them back if they’re creative.

Why not just flip things around? Have it spawn a kittenload of Fire Elementals AFTER you destroy the cauldrons and Risen Knight?
The problem is that people want to be doing the event constantly, and the success timer (2-3 hours til reset) is much, much longer than the failure timer (5-8 minutes). Until that changes, failure will always be preferable, as it allows the event to be replayed much more frequently. The best way to fix it would be to remove the failure state completely, and have the event always succeed after a set number of mobs are killed.
So let’s turn things around completely: Make a similar event that only spawns after capturing Arah.
That way we have an incentive to capture and maintain Arah, while farmers could still farm.
But are these Runestones used to actually forge a legendary or does the Djinn in the Mystic Forge (forget his name) eat them as snacks during the off hours in GW2? The Djinn essentially just seems to spit out random results (especially when throwing rare or exotic weapons at it), so we don’t know if the materials that we give to the Djinn actually go into creating the legendary or just trade for it.
Just use your imagination, and have fun with it. That’s what we use to do with games on Nintendo.
Reasons legendary FOOD would be so awesome:
- Infinite uses. The convenience of never having to craft more.
- Universal appeal. Like Omnomberry Ghost, you get a cool aura without interrupting your weapon of choice.
- Because Chef is AWESOME!
We do know Legendary Weapons are forged with the power of Jormag because a Son of Svanir sees the error of his ways after defeating the Claw of Jormag, and “uses his power to see it undone.”
I’d assume some legendaries such as Frostfang and Twilight are cannon, whereas Moot and Dreamer are simply joke weapons.
