Core Tyria Mastery points

Order IV:
Defending History Informing the Future Achievements: 1 Mastery Points
To Know the Unknown Achievements: 1 Mastery Points
Some Must Fight That All May be Free Achievements: 1 Mastery Points

these are one for each of the 3 orders can only be got once so 1 not 3 mastery points.

From the Wiki: ‘Note that for the Hero achievements, a mastery point is only awarded the first time a player completes the personal story arc for that level…’.

Again, only 8 Mastery Points for the Personal Story, as there are 8 and only 8 Level Arcs.

I think bob counting world completion and getting to 80 twice in their calculations since they are both under hero.
And then the second time for them selfs.

Can you select any stat combo on it?

See screenshot. Yes, it is as versatile as all the Season 3 trinkets.

Well it aint always possible to get all stat combos on pick your stat items hence why I asked.

If so you wont get any for you charr.

Are people really that helpless or are they too clouded to open the wiki or google it? It’s more work to begin a new thread than google it to find out within about 1 or 2 minutes how this map works.

There are a number of people who have very limited time to play, and many MMOs that you CAN just get in and play without having to consult outside sources. If you only have 1 hour to play you want to spend that time playing the game, not reading about playing the game. And additionally there are probably people who will go to an empty DS and simply conclude that it is just not popular or not working. Why would they even think that they have to look it up online to “find out how it works”. Shouldn’t it just work or be made clear from within the game?

If you only have an hour to play it wouldn’t matter anyway. DS takes longer than that. Play on a day when you have more time.

Or accept that the game design doesn’t allow you to ever complete that portion of the game and be left feeling deflated.

A lot of people with jobs have ‘only’ an hour to play at any one time- perhaps after putting the kids to bed and their own bedtime. Hence why DS is such a bad design. The map itself should always be accessable to be able to complete it and grab the mastery points.

Locking content behind ‘mega’ events, timers, having to search outside sources, bringing in masteries locked behind all sorts of ‘content’ that looks like it fell off SMB8’s cutting room floor, etc to name but a few, puts people off.

Thank god then that there is this thing called single player games that you can play for an hour at a time and complete everything on your own

Cost of shared inventory slots

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

I think the price is much to high. The price for the eternal harvesting tools was very, very high, but we bought them, although they can only be used by one character. Many people bought them for each charachter Oo.

And now the functionality that everyone wants from begin for so much items comes with another high price -.-
That was the moment I stopped paying for anything in the shop. Does anyone convert the prices in real money before buying???

Then buy it with ingame currency converted to gems, all you pay then is time that you already have lost anyway.

Raiding Questions

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

In an ideal world, there are 9 professions, 10 raid slots. You should be 100% viable taking 1 of each profession, and having a bonus slot tailored for each fight (maybe you have that guy that swaps toons out every fight because he is special and cannot play one profession too long. Or maybe you are struggling with staying alive so you take a healing druid or tempest to even your odds.)

Okay i understand your enthusiasm and i want this to be true too but comimg from wow you understand that even back in vanilla which was 40 man raid all the way today clases and specs are not taken in raids because there ia always a better class.

12 or so years they still havent done it and gw2 is quite notorious for its not so amazimg balancing, but you ask here for a 10 man group which will take all classes meaning all classes should be usefull and also that 1 spot is versitile meanimg 1 class is not over performimg the other in general so no need to over stack it unless for specific encounters which bringing more will benefit the group.

Now give me an example of a game that has manage that lvl of balance. (take mote in not shotting on your ideals of raiding but that scenario is unrealistic not only in gw2 id say).

The game that managed that lvl of balance was city of heroes/city of villains.

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

Maybe they could add a way to buy core tyria mastery points with proofs of heroics

Wouldn’t make much sense as those masteries are PvE.

And so are hero points and we can buy those.
I just extended that to the mastery points that people dont want to spend time to get like the racial armors for example or camping silverwaste for the rare spawns.

If they can chip away at it over time and get a random mastery point for lets say 10,25,50 or even 100 proof of heroics.
How do that affect you and me ( I assume you have completed core tyria masteries already aswell )

Edit
They would still have to gain the experience to level the masteries in pve ofcourse.

Golden Fractal Weapon Crate=Ascended, Bug?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

Pretty much the title. I was going through my inventory trying to see if I had enough ascended weapons to make a new character ready for fractals and saw the nice box with an ascended quality box. Then come to find out that it was the Golden Fractal Weapon Crate which only has exotic quality weapons inside. Shouldn’t the quality of the box be the same as the quality of it’s contents? I know the boxes themselves are supposed to be hard to get, and thus maybe they made the box ascended quality, but it doesn’t make sense with the weapons themselves are exotic. In my opinion, the golden fractals weapons should be made ascended to match the box’s rarity, or, much more likely for sure is that they should change the quality of the box to exotic.

TLDR;
Golden Fractal Weapon Crate shows as Ascended, but has Exotics inside, Bug?

Its the same with all the bags in the game, do you pull out exotic and rares out of every orange and yellow champion bag you pickup?

I know for sure I dont

I see dident even cross my mind that someone would tp flip on two other accounts and use trash items to transfer gold to their flip accounts.

Since listing the items on the main account was sending the gold the wrong way.

what would happen is you losing gold to see your item sit 1 copper less then a gold buyer, that will make for kitten sure that the gold seller buy theirs instead of yours.

what do gold buyers have to do with this?

why else would you list a level 75 backpiece for 7000 gold if it was not to get a gold seller to buy it?
That you email with outside game ofcourse to tell what item and for how much, to hopefully launder the money that way.

Sounds like a fool proof strategy to scam some scammers out of tons of gold and you should definately spend the 375g listing fee to prove that you are right.

It will be my pleasure to undercut you again. Well lets not get ahead of ourselves. You dont have that item anyways and probably not even the listing fee.

To answer your first question: I did it because i can. And I think that item is worth 7777g and someone else will agree eventually and buy it.

How would you scam them out of money mate?

Cant see anyone buying ascalonian catacombs/frozen maw drop for close to 8k gold ever

AGONY RESISTANCE

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

@OriOri: You are missing the point.
OP asks why he is missing AR from one day to another. The answer is clearly that it may have scaled down due to beeing in a lowlevel zone.
And it is scaling (for whatever reason) even if you don’t need it outside of fotm.

Okay, one picture doesnt prove it scales, but even if it does, as oriori said, you need it only in fractals, so if it scales somewhere else, thats completely inconsequential.

That is true but it can account for why the OP is missing their agony resistance from day to day.
Maybe they were in a 75 or lower area of the map and just checked their agony at that time.

Do you follow this thread at all?

It looks like it isn’t possible.

By a strange coincidence, I’m currently writing a book on how to avoid being scammed in the game. If you want to pre-order a copy just mail me 20 gold, or 200 gold if you want to reserve the special, extra-shiny collector’s edition. The book is almost certainly nearly guaranteed to save you money in the long run.

Only if I can get a hard copy sent to my irl mail box, I will ofcourse send you the ingame gold when its deliverd

when you maxed maguma hot masteries you need to do 1 raid boss to unlock the last mastery line and after that is exped up you gain spirit shards for each level up after that.

If you dont do one raid boss you gain nothing.

I’m assuming you mean you’ve unlocked Forsaken Thicket but not killed a boss or something? Cause I have completed all masteries but haven’t unlocked Forsaken Thicket and I get spirit shards.

You shouldent get it in expansion zones

Orphan is a pain? really its 10-15 mins of running and giving presents to children.

Good class for ascended armor?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

I suppose that’s true. Mesmer is a good suggestion I think. Still, the stats cannot be changed anymore and the vigils also cost a lot. I doubt I can go in full Berserker gear to raids.

What do you mean “Stats cannot be changed anymore” ? Has the mystic forge thing to restat ascended gear been removed ?

still works…
so OP just choose the 3 classes (of the same weight) you would like the best, then if you need to switch use the recipe

Well OP is correct if they are buying their ascended for spvp currency those cant be stat changed at this moment.

Level 80 boost question

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Linken.6345

Linken.6345

Ok, I read the rewards. That poses a question, to derail my own thread:

If I used the boost on a Level 1 character, how many hero points do I have at level 80?

The rewards list state only stats and unblocks are given, but since HoT, a regular rain (8 to 10 at a time) of HP’s show up as the character levels up. With the fast track item, do they still show up? If I use it on a level 80, I do wind up with less HP than I start with? My 80’s are elite, and I’d hate to de-elite them just to get rid of that boost item.

Inquiring minds want to know, and all that stuff……

You get no more hero points your 80 have already got them leveling up.
