Guild Wars 2

i’ve actually wondered how and if this was going to happen eventually: running.

in gw1 i used to run shiro on my ele for people for tips. it was fine. it took like 2 minutes, and everyone was happy because it completed zaishen quests. so this i the first case of this i have seen.

someone in one of the threads i posted about skills made a really good point when i questioned about legendaries too,

he or she said that we probably wont see new legendaries until we get new weapons. and it will probably just be of those new weapons

elementalist:

please lower the cooldown of ride the lightning back to 15s, and increase the range again

SEPARATE from PvP if that is the issue.

i need to be able to traverse large distances in PvE and I can’t anymore. so i have now had to sacrifice damage for speed so I have mainly been using staff. i don’t like staff. i want to be able to use scepter/dagger again.

yeah there were like 3 files for me too. but i wonder what is in them and if all of it is needed or if the no longer needed data goes away

So this may be a dumb question but:

When guild wars 2 updates with the current patch, does it dispose of no longer needed files to clear up space?

if not: is there a way to get rid of files that are not longer needed for the game?

Although I highly doubt they will make dyes account bound I dearly wish they would. As it is now when I find a dye on a character that has it already I have to put it in the vault and log in my other 8 characters one at a time until I find one that can use it. It really is a pain in the er neck!

this is exactly why.

even if there isnt a wallet, the dye tab should have its own storage thing outside of the bank. or get is own tab in the bank

there are so many dyes i can’t even keep track. i suggest that they do the same thing with the dye as they did with currency. make it across the whole account.

Mother tree cannot die. We will not allow it.

why would you waste a character slot on another character of the same profession?

new weapons: scythe and whip

which means new weapon skills.

i need this.

shoot, idk why that quote didnt work. now i forgot what i was quoting.

yes rifles for eles! and whips!

dual wield pistols for mesmers!

i just want that 18 slot bag…. lol

do you think they are timing it to a specific living story?

but that’s the whole point, they said new stuff is coming. sooooooooooo

i thought we were supposed to see something big like skills for this update because its the 1y anniversary. but instead its just Anet = Oprah giving away QUEEEEEEEEEEEEEN JENNAH MINIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS! and one for you! and one for you! and you too! WOW!

if we could put gifs in here i would totally put the Oprah BEEEEEEEEES! gif.

The forest unpetrified would be amazing to see. same with watching the jade sea melt.

well in the announcement it was said within 2013

So those new skills and traits that were mentioned by my boo

1) Are they just utility skills?

2) Are weapons counted as new skills?

3) Elites/healing/racial too?

4) Are traits being moved around too?

5) When are we going to see them?

Thanks. End of transmission.

wow it makes so much more sense now. she isn’t a rando, she was mentioned in the unwinnable dungeon.

Her big reveal is that Logan is pregnant

i love how the title of the thread was changed. lol

I honestly didn’t like most of Southsun. I just don’t like the zone and I didn’t like the story, the first time or the second time. and you’re right. Kiel is boring. She was boring during the investigation thing too. Apparently Scarlet might be the mysterious figure from the queen’s Jubilee opening ceremony. But still, we don’t even know if it’s a Sylvari

Hear me out:

From what I have noticed, all of the content updates from Sky Pirates to Election to Southsun to Frost and Flame (even the Halloween and Wintersday), all of the living world stuff has been geared toward Humans, Charr, Norn, and Asura. Never Sylvari. It’s kinda racist toward the Sylvari. Now I know what you’re thinking: Trahearne stole the show in the personal story. Yes, he did have a large role in the personal story, but this is the living story and it is now a year later. So please, maybe bring the Sylvari back around for a change? The Grove gets no traffic at all.

Side note** : THANK YOU for having this living world update outside of Lion’s Arch. It’s nice to change it up.

bring the cooldown for ride the lightning back down! It’s my main form of transportation!!!!!

some emote sounds still don’t work ex: cry on male sylvari generates no sound while it does on male human

does anyone think Anet has seen this thread? not necessarily about the ele/thief debate, but about actually considering un-nerfing ride the lightning?

moral of my story is. i don’t even use d/d i usually use scepter/dagger. i just want to traverse the map fast

I’m really pleased this is getting so much attention.

and some guy who posted earlier was right – it’s not like we can just walk away from AI

if its a WvW problem, then SPLIT THE SKILL FOR WvW

Exactly, WHY?

and if it is because of PvP, THEN SPLIT THE SKILL. plenty of other skills are being split. several skills in gw1 were split.

So I haven’t been able to log in to play the update today because I am in class. I did look at the patch notes on the wiki. Yet again, Ride the lightning’s recharge has increase (drastically at that) and distance has been shortened.

WHY DOES YOU KEEP NERFING IT?

For other elementalists and myself, ride the lightning is our main form of transportation across the vast lands of Tyria. We don’t use it to attack, we just use it to move quickly because it takes so long to get somewhere…..

summary:
1) Why are you nerfing the skill so much, all the time?
2) Please stop nerfing it and make it more accessible.

Wreckdum.8367:

ANet lies! There are Asians already in GW2! I found one at the shelter event in Cursed Shore!

when i read this, i started laughing so hard i woke my roommate up. that is all.

Safer Saviour.9685:

Scourge.1563:

possable also you could have a heavy armor spellcaster (Guards dont fit that role)

Yes, they really do. They use sceptres, foci, tridents and staves. They have spellbooks as elite skills.

Do you have a link for this?

So my understanding of the situation is that they don’t want to be non-inclusive so they are keeping Cantha Away?

Last time I checked in the world today, there are people of all different races from all walks of life in this world. The world of Guild Wars 1 reflected that. ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE.

If there is no Cantha nor Elona in Guild Wars 2 because of NCsoft, they are saying that in this world there should not be all kinds of people from all walks of life. Thats some foolishness right there. ArenaNet Knows how to be tastefully inclusive. I want to return to the shores of Cantha. Need to see what happened after the sea melted and the forest woke up. And Canthan New Year

And if we are talking about inclusion. When was the last time any video game in the world that include holiday events or anything has anything for Channukah or Pesach or Sukkot or anything. I’m used to it in the real world so I know there isn’t anything to hope for in a video game. But my point is you either have to let everything happen or nothing happen.

actually i watched the video. doesn’t mean you need to be rude.

So I recall some interview with Colin Johansen where it was basically stated that dailies would be easier to be done. Ex: there would be 6 to do and you only had to do 4 to get it.

With the update, the daily now has 5 tasks you must complete that change.

The dailies are now harder to complete. Why is this happening?

i just don’t like that it doesn’t really do anything. it goes in and dies in 2 seconds

no they do the animation but not the sound.

so, Anet do you know anything about this?

I thought so.

But yeah, it’s just really weird. the rest of my characters do, but only my male sylvari doesn’t.

Do you have a famale sylvari and experience the same thing?

So something that I noticed, as I have a character of each race, is that there is an issue with the /cry emote.

When my male human responds to the /cry emote you can hear him cry.

HOWEVER, when my male sylvari responds to the /cry emote, the animation of him crying happens BUT there is no audio for him crying.

Was there no audio recorded for it or is it a bug?

I was also really excited for the home instance. No one in there cares about my character, no one wanted to be friends with my character, no one fancied or fell in love with him. IMO, the people in there need to care about you so that you feel engaged in the game. The relationships of the people to the character is what will help us understand our character more, and the world he or she comes from in addition to where the world he or she is in now. The character creation questionnaire helps a little bit with this, but all in all we really don’t know that much about our character as the relationships with other characters define who they are in addition to their choices.

So on my offhand dagger i have been using this sigil of corruption which gives a stack of 25, increase to condition damage. I got a new sigil from personal storyline: sigil of bloodlust, i put it on my scepter all excited to have power and condition damage boost; this would be most helpful as i keep dying in personal storyline.

BUT, the bloodlust one completely overrides the corruption one and lets me only have one buff. Why can I not have both?

i agree, about the trading post. we need to be able to sell them: no acountbound/soulbound. I’d also like it if tonics were like they were in gw2 if you had EL tonics: you could still attack and use skills in the form.
