Guild Wars 1 has been going for about 10 years without an engine remake.
One day, we’re going to get a daily to kill Foulbear Kraal. Imagine what that’s going to be like.
I don’t think the names are checked unless they are actually reported.
@ Blood:
Lol
Did it make you feel better now to counter your hurt feelings by playing out the sarcastic card of ignorance??
You do realize, that this kind of conversation is absolutely pointless here as like completely out of place right now and leads to nothing??
It should be clear for you that in an international Forum, that you will always see people in them, that aren’t natural English speakers, or??
However, I naturally do apologize for that reading inconvenience. I try to do my best :P
There are actually other language forums.
It’s been that way in the open world too since release I think.
Well, the problem in this particular thread would not exist if the OP had used some common sense to explain things and suggest a change, rather than watching his wife get frustrated over the course of hours.
The thing is, it wasn’t over the course of hours. How many enemies do you need to see get exploded in front of you that you try to attack and can’t before you get frustrated? It was not hours, it was minutes if not seconds. Also I have never left her side as she played. I’m there, offering her advice and keeping her alive with my new guardian, but I want her to lead the way. She controls where we go because she is exploring the game.
It’s actually fairly insulting that you suggest to me how my wife plays the game, wouldn’t you agree? She is in control and getting advice from someone with probably more experience than you, so she’s in pretty much the best possible situation.
As a final note, my OP is nearly the highest rated post I’ve ever made in over 2 years, so clearly a lot of people feel the same way. This is not a good situation, and I want more GW2 newbies to be happy! I spend a lot of time coaching newbies if they want it because I want to keep playing this game for years to come.
No offense intended, but if your wife can’t handle a few minutes of frustration, then MMOs are not for her.
I’ve wondered this myself actually. Collecting 5 legendaries should give you a title.
Why should the experience of one player be worth more than others, though?
And destroy it as well, all day for the entire day. It’s not like only 20 people want to complete this daily and then it’s done.
And for the umpteenth time, please remind me why you need to annihilate events in a starter zone in order to have fun completing your daily, rather than doing something in a higher level zone?
Well actually, I would prefer if the event dailies stayed how they were as Maguuman Events, Ascalon Events and such, some people would still go to lower level zones though to do events, just because it’s easier, so that wouldn’t really change much.
Your wife could have just waited to do stuff in Caledon tomorrow, there are other zones.
Wow. I can’t believe you posted this.
I can imagine his wife, firing up the game, choosing the Salad people cause they looked the best to her and spending lots of time at character creation make a good looking character and then when ready to play the game she’s greedted with “hey, go someplace else or just wait for tomorrow while us Vets curb stomp the entire zone. oh and welcome to GW2”
Because OP seems very over-dramatic about it. Once an event is done, said people will move along to a different event, likely minutes later. All hearts have multiple objectives anyway. And if they can’t handle people being around and think they’re obnoxious… then why play a MMO?

Removing events from starter zones would make them more dull than they already are now. There’s lots of people in Caledon forest today because there is a daily for events in Caledon forest. This does not happen everyday.
The name Guild Wars is because of “The Guild Wars” that happened in the lore, by the way, between the nations and such.
Not a bug, RNGeesus just isn’t favouring you.
The breather itself is the basic skin, but it makes an icy aura appear around you while underwater.
For the losing health when jumping on snowflakes, i’ve found the snowman path to be the safest.
The caps are being merged in January, so you will be able to start getting points from them then as the new total cap will be 15k.
This can happen with all ground target skills, annoyingly.
Throw on swiftness and skip the first row of presents completely. Then climb up diagonally left. You should make it every time with no issue.
How exactly do you throw on swiftness when you can’t use any skills?
Get it from PvP. People have opened thousands upon thousands of presents without getting one. The PvP reward track seems to give better rewards than doing any of the PvE stuff really. Can even get a permanent gem store version of the finishers.
New aquabreather seems to be guaranteed in PvP reward track, but a grind fest equaling to Gywnefryd for PvE. Time to start PvPing people!
The first day people could get Mawdrey, people thought it was all masterwork and junk anyway. The bags from Star seem to share the same loot table.
The reward gifts seem similar to Mawdreys, as far as I can tell.
The amount of activities completed this year is more than triple of last years, and last years were a lot more bearable. So yeah, they can make achievements that take a bit of effort, without making them absolutely ridiculous like this years.
You can get one of your choice from the meta achievement, they’re also available on the gem store.
The very first song is extremely easy, if you are having trouble with it. And yeah, you do need to complete a song for the daily.
http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/2pmpdt/time_to_get_your_wintersday_gift_tree_a_quest/ Here is a list of spots if you are having trouble finding them. Note that chests like ‘asuran chest’ can be any asuran chest from a JP, same for the others.
I got all the collection items from JPs in PvE. There is multiple places to get them.
What does fractals have to do with Wintersday? I’ve completed everything except for the repetition achievements, and havn’t had to enter a single fractal.

Why not the middle ground of, you can play with a premade party, but if you go in the activity yourself, you get grouped with randoms?
I had annihilator spawn a little while ago when I was in Silverwastes for the daily, so I don’t think it’s bugged. Just bad luck.
The presents are actually more likely to pop underneath you if you wait until the blue presents are there, whether other people have already jumped or not. This is why people jump as soon as they can.
Don’t encourage them. :/
Join at the start of a bell choir game, the first song is extremely easy. You only need to do 5 of 6 of the dailies, so you do not need to do the JP. The dailies are also likely to change everyday.
The more you pay, the further it will take you to your furthest milestone for the jumping puzzle. Paying 1 gold will take you to the furthest milestone unlocked, other amounts take you further back.
You can completely turn it off by clicking the cog in your inventory window and clicking “Hide New Item Highlights”.
I don’t think anyone here has said WvW is hard apart from you.
Do people even do that JP frequency enough to be worth camping it?
Not really, it’s pretty dead now.
The guild likely withdrew the invitation, maybe it was sent on accident.
Everything is right next to each other, it’s quite a long walk from mystic forge to guild bank in LA, for example.
10 badges per key? You do realize there is quite a few people with 30k+ badges, right? It’s because of the EotM farmers that there will never be something heavily monetizable on the badge vendor.

The second suggestion is very, very unlikely to happen, as that kind of thing really does not sound easy at all to implement, it would also require very heavy moderation.
Best thing ever.

The permanent one was available in the gem store for 1 week. I really hope it goes back on sale someday, gets a bit lonely up there sometimes.
(edited by Lazaar.9123)
I’ve seen it listed in LFG a few times in the past week.
The Airship will never get removed, as that would void a lot of expensive gem store purchases people have made, and annoy a lot of people. It may move elsewhere, though.
One of the most famous Asuran golemancers in lore was a Necromancer.
That really depends. Killing people in the Obsidian Sanctum isn’t against the rules, but harassing people in general is.
Yeah, I don’t think it’s intended. It’s been a long time though, so if it does get fixed, remains to be seen. :/
