I used to hate them too… until i made some mesmer friends.

The more maps we get, the less populated they will be. What the game needs is not stuff to draw us to a map, but stuff to draw NEW players to the maps.
There will always be players in every map, but often not enough for a successful one unless its was an organized group.
As for the ‘bug’ with the NPCs in the Labyrinth, that was not so much a bug, as a deliberate change with NPCs in all instances. If you knew the history of it, you’d know it wasn’t 33 months, as there wasn’t an issue before the change.
Also, one is never going to be able to create a map that can be tested for every single possible terrain issue before its release, unless you want to wait for 10, 20, 30 years for new content.
How many threads in this section of the forum had even got a simple acknowledgment of the problem stated?
I think this is what you mean:
Season 2 of the Living World began on July 1, 2014.
Update – April 18, 2017[edit]
Living World[edit]
Fixed an issue with the “Into the Labyrinth” instance that was preventing friendly NPCs from assisting in combat.
33 months from launch before a major annoying bug was fixed.
ALmost 5 years since original launch and people still spawn into walls.
One option would be to only have the pet with you if you spec in beast mastery, if you dont you’d get a dmg buff to compensate.
Why would we want Anet to fix something that worked for so long ?
I’m in the process of crafting my 77 mystic clovers too and i dont like it anymore then you do, but being my first lego weapon I’m bitting the bullet and doing it the same way many before us have done it.
Once you are done, you’ll be even more proud of your new Ego toy.
While at it, maybe they could also add:
BOOM!!!
KABANG!!
POW!!!
ZAP!!!
I missed them old Batman tv show.
O.o
Maybe they secretly added bugs to the game?
O.o
We will be doing a maintenance build today. Although you will see a “new build” notification in the game, no alterations are being made to the game at this time.

Why am i downloading stuff then?
You should never be salvaging rares at the same time as masterworks and lower.
“You should never be salvaging rares at the same time as masterworks & lower” if you want to be economically efficient. "
The OP has stated clearly that they are willing to trade more convenience for less coin.
I wouldn’t do what the OP does and, as I said above, I don’t think ANet should prioritize this over other UI improvements. However, I’m not willing to state categorically that the OP is wrong for wanting to do this; it’s their preference, regardless of whether it makes sense (or cents) to me.
still why should they change that is perfectly fine as it is. Just because he needs to move his mouse some pixels more?
Short answer: Epic Lazyness
I was running this before going with full ascended viper gear and i loved it.

I want Taimi, just taimi.
If i want to watch some day time soap opera drama, i’ll turn on the teevee. I had enough of NPCs going all out with personnal drama, love affairs and mirror on their ceilling.
Taimi gets to the point and that’s all we need for a good story.
=P
So you want this on the salvage kit options…
-Use
-Salvage all Fines.
-Salvage all materworks and below.
-Salvage all rares.
-Salvage everything coz i’m a way too lazy to click more then once.
No.
You got my vote.
Lady Kasmeer Meade: I’m sorry. I froze. It was Balthazar. The god… (hic)
Marjory Delaqua: You…What did kasmeer do to make Marjory mad at her is Lady Kasmeer Meade must been working for him cause she know his mirror. It was special—enchanted by Lyssa herself. Is the queen lyssa ?
If the Queen is Lyssa, then who is Blaine? (the dumb butt from the well)
O.o
Is that the legendary floating backpack?
O.o
Looking back at the whole story we can see that Caudecus was up to no good from day one. Having this bloodstone business to introduce the White Mantles and the ’’ressurection’’ of Lazarus was a pretty good plot.
Like the OP said, we were not given any bread crumbs to follow as to what Balthy was up to and to a regular Joe who logged on casually, this looks more like Anet threw some names in a hat and Balthy came out.
I know this is gonna go somewhere interesting eventually and some good story telling can come out of this if and only if Anet stops giving us some poorly written daytime soap opera drama.
The average Joe needs to be able to understand the lore behind all this, and i dont think that lesbian gay love affairs, nor screwed up old man with mirrors above their bed brings any understanding of the story.
Please Anet, cut the bull-crap and give us a GOOD story.
Edit: What’s up with The dumb dude in the well, Blaine ?
I havent been on the map long but so far i like it.
The story was a bit short but fun and the puppies were easy once i caught on the mecanic of it.
The new mastery… i like it !!!
With the addition of the new torch, will the wedding attire return to the trading post ?
So basically, we got to wait for more whip cream to hide the taste.
-.-
Don’t get me wrong, I know it’s terrible, and I’m not looking forward to that step since I have a vague plan to craft the same legendary. It’s just … at least that way progress can happen, even if it is miserable that it’s broken like this, and if someone didn’t know that before, now they do.
Maybe we should get paid for finding work-around to those bugs.
=P
The dev team assign to work on that story disappeared into a rift, along with the bug fixing team.
=P
I was able to work around the problem by going in and out of the zone until i got a fresh map.
Use the /ip command to get the IP of the bug map.
walk out the zone and go back in.
Use the /ip command again to see if you got a fresh map.
I was lucky and only had to do that for 10 mins, but this need to be fixed for real, we should not have to find work around the stuff you are not fixing.
-.-
So basically, we got to wait for more whip cream to hide the taste.
-.-
Did make a ticket explaining the problem, i hope it will help getting it solved.
Ranger
Rangers rely on a keen eye, a steady hand, and the power of nature itself. Unparalleled survivalists with traps, nature spirits, and a stable of loyal pets at their command, rangers can adapt to any situation.
-‘’Wait, my freaking coat is caught in a trap’’
-‘’again???’’
Why is it a problem that legendary armor is gated by doing raid? After all its an end game goal and it should be reachable by doing end game content.
We already have legendary weapons that are gated by buggy events that dont start or get stuck, at least raiders do know they will see the end of it at some point, while the rest are still waiting to see bug fix on older stuff to finish their collections.
Why is that WP not contested like in any other events ?
(Been trying for that achieve a few times myself)
still bugged, 4/29/2017. Happy third birthday bug (whatever. close enough)!
I need this for a legendary collection. I’m blocked by two of these stupid event bugs.
Im also stuck in my rodgort III collection because of a bug, but look at the bright side, we will get some brand new bugs and the revamped Arah trench coat on tuesday!!!
Location: Fields of ruins
the chain of events it stuck at the ‘’escort the vanguard supplies’’ part. Kestra in in between the 2 destinations with no bull, and she wont move. The event can be triggered at both ends, but since Kestra wont move, nothing is happening.
You mean having housing like a home instance with NPCs and other stuff we gathered/bought?
wait, dont we already have that ?
One of those 400 is the guy refilling the snacks.
And the other 399 are trench coat designers.
Heavy armor: looks nice
Light armor: butt cape.
Medium armor: freaking trench coat..again ? seriously ??
I think a change in the weather of the world is in order, we need more rain and lots of it.
Adding some umbrellas in the TP would also be a good idea, it would match well with all of them medium armor trench coat and would help pay for 2 years of developping something a lots of players already said they didnt want: More trench coat.
But then again, its not like Anet takes into account what we think and wish.
So I just found out this used to exist in the game files…
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/School_Uniform
I want this outfit. Please Anet make it a thing? I’ll pay all the gems.
Its not a trenchcoat or a buttcape. I’d forget about it if i was you.
Top right of the page, LOTS of material to work with as for armor art.
https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Armor
But a medium longcoat armor again???
Really?
Really???
I’m beginning to feel it was a wrong move to spit up $20 on gems last nite…
Looks nice and the animation is cool, but did we really wanted another trench coat medium armor set?
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Norn_female_medium_armor
I sure didnt.

I say Lazarus is Blaine, who is also E, mascarading as Lord Faren.
…or was it the other way around ?
O.o
I never expect anything good to drop from world bosses, so if by any chance i get some awsome uber leet thingy, I’m happy.
I mostly join on these for the fun of it.
Expectations are the fast way to deception.
Ho how i want a hammer on my ranger!
And them bunny ears from the TP too!
Could be we go and seek help from the chicken people.
Note: this leaves jormag alive for expansion 3/LW4
Unless he dies at some point over the next four months…
Is he sick ? A terminal desease maybe ?
O.o
To me regen is about rewarding active defensive play through maneuver, mobility, and the like.
By moving in a manner to reduce opponents’ rates of attack, using dodges effectively, and various temporary invulnerability options, incoming damage is reduced sufficiently, often, to allow regen to act as an ongoing means of dulling the edge of incoming damage. It seems intended to work in conjunction with other defensive capabilities rather than on its own. It would lose much of its appeal to me if turned into yet another burst heal.
That’s exactly my way of thinking, what cant hit you, cant hurt you and dead stuff dont hurt much.
When i purchased HoT i was given a boost to lvl 80 and some nice exotic soldier armor for my longbow ranger and it was usefull for a while till i learned about this incredibile skill:
DODGE.
Im now running in full ascended viper gear axe/axe and axe/torch. I dont die much and only use WHAO on rare ocassions. I farm packs of centaures solo in lake Doric, kill everything i see in bitterfrost to farm karma and i could hold on to blue oasis mostly solo when i was farming them legendary bosses for the title.
Life regen ? I aint got much room for that in my build, but then, dead stuff dont hurt much.
Do i face tank everything ? If i can i will, but i’ll dodge and go range if needed. Raw damage aint always the way to go to survive. freezing, crippling, knock down are pretty usefull in my case.
Do i get downed a lot? not more then anyone else i guess.
Just my 2 canadian cents.
Seriously, i do chest run in the north pole (AKA Butterfrost frontier) and i get filled up pretty quick, but with a couple of shot of salvage kit, a few hits on the Godly and mighty ‘’DEPOSIT ALL MATERIALS’’ button, I’m all ready for another run.
This is a game and taking 30 sec to clean up your bags is not gonna deprave some poor little hungry orphans from their meals.

What would you throw away in Archon Wing’s screenshot? The siege because you don’t play WvW? The armor because you only use one set in one game mode? More than half my inventory is full before I even leave LA with stuff I use regularly.
And then the bag within a bag plagues the rest of my experience.
The toilet paper roll.
I want a rainbow colored flying unicorn mount that poops skittles.
Because magic ofc!
Also nobody urinates in the world of tyria..did you see any toilets around?
There is one in LA, close the the bank.
