Guild Wars 2

Since its a 8 sec cd there must have been atleast 10-20 people doing it, seems they have started to use these instead of ogre whistle and flame powder.

Maybe next time your friend can stay at the north battery to get participation and avoid the burn phases?

OP maybe you should try black desert it seem to have what you want.

Obtena.7952:

I don’t see why this is a re-occuring issue with this game. Since day 1 there have been items that people want that are obscenely expensive to craft because of an expensive material. This situation isn’t exceptional and I see no reason for Anet to do anything about it because it’s clearly not a mistake.

If you want something exceptional like this, you need to do something exceptional to get it. Not a new concept in this game.

They droped like candy last year why should we not think they would do so this year aswell?

Liewec.2896:

they’d also have to make a whole ton of new story content up to lv 30.
complete with dialogue.
a starting zone, and if they wanted to make it a real race they’d need to make a main city too to match divinities reach, Black Citadel, Hoelbrak, Grove and Rata Sum.

its a hell of a lot more work than simply rigging/animating a model and making the armours fit.

Not if the new race starts at 80 right away and follows some living story – kind of development instead of the usual leveling in low zones. They give new players lvl 80 boost nowadays anyway, so what’s the difference?

Also if it comes in expansion, then of course they would have to make new zones/creatures/etc, that’s what expansion is for – new content. People act like making ANY new content is a big problem, but that’s what anet is supposed to be doing? Since we are chasing fire/ice/crystal/underwater dragons nowadays, then it’s obvious the new maps will have to fit the theme. Besides, you pretty much have a dragon for each race. Norn – Jormag, Asura – Primordus, Sylvari -Mordremoth, Charr – Kralk and Humans-Zhaitan. And if you need to beat DSD (who still exists, even though he is heavily ignored/kept in secret), then who would you ask for help to defeat him if not some underwater assassin race?

No we wouldent ask a underwater assassin race that hide from us, we would ask living stone (aka dwarfs) help us after we defeat kralk obviously.

Being stone they will sink and we wont have to deal with the pesky underwater combat that anet dont want to do.
It will be normal weapon skill becouse of magic

SoV.5139:

What did your LFM say? If it said or implied that all were welcome and you ended up with someone who thought they could fake it until they made it, its as much the group leaders fault as it is the newbies fault.

No even all welcome groups want communication if you wipe first time due to 20%-80% of said team dident do anything right at all.

Just out of curiousity what other mmorpgs let you switch for free, I know wow dont since you have to get the item.
Then pay gold to store and you cant store unlimited items either + pay in game gold to switch the look.

I done the ml once dident find it fun so havent done it again.

So how come you can have premade groups in pvp but not these modes based on pvp?

Nightshade.5924:

Missy.6803:

I’m not reading all 8 pages; but I read the first 3.
I’m more shocked people are, it seems, offended the Wintersday Jumping Puzzle is needed for a Wintersday achievement/skin. I’ve been playing since GW1 and beta and this was the first year I attempted the puzzle; got it my third try. There are tons of videos and help out there, and it’s not unreasonable to have /3/ successful runs be part of the achievement. I think all of the requirements for Winter’s Presence is very reasonable for casual and hardcore AP hunters except for the drinking. 10k is a pretty obnoxious number. I have a guildie who had over 1k gold. He is broke now to under 100g after buying 2 Wintersday skin and trying to attain all of the drinks as well as the sigils/runes needed. I have no hope of myself ever getting it if he is still farming the puzzle for presents to get drinks and tonics out of.
I do LOVE that the drinks have a consume all button. My future carpal tunnel thanks you hahaha.
I must mirror the concern above my post; can we work on this all year? Obviously the Wintersday ones need to be during Wintersday, like the puzzle and gift yak, but the drinks and the mystic forge items could be all year. . .

Hmm. My impression is that the WD JP is undoable. And that it was 15 completions, not three. But maybe I misread that part. To further understand where I’m coming from, read the most recent page for my posts this year.

Just came from GW2. Was shaking my head when I COULD NOT get into the JP. Apparently it’s full. Myself, I seriously CANNOT understand why ANYONE would do that sadistic cruel breakoff puzzle for FUN. But apparently many people don’t agree with me.

You can talk about walkthoughs, hints etc. That does NOT help me. For instance, If I understand correctly, at some point in the “first part”, there are some candy cane striped “bars” that you have jump across to get to the next series of melty snowflakes of doom.

Now. PLEASE CLEARLY PICTURE THIS. I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN TO THOSE “BARS”
Never. Not once. EVER. I have NEVER seen them IN GAME.

For me, there is NO jumping puzzle that is easy. I’ve posted that Shaman’s Run probably took me ten times the first time. But memory is fallible, especially since that was over three years ago. Let’s go to a MUCH more recent attempt.

I’m going to presume that we’re all familiar w/ the HoT zones. In Auric Basin there is a jumping puzzle that spirals up and up and up the inside of this cavern. There’s a Vista there too. It’s actually pretty neat for a JP.

So I’m going to guess that most, if not all, of you jumpers think that that puzzle is DEAD EASY. Piece of cake, NO CHALLENGE AT ALL. I’m right, aren’t I?

I FELL THREE TIMES IN MORE OR LESS THE SAME PLACE. Now, thanks to my glider, I was able to recover twice and get back, but I fell way further the third time. I WOULD NOT HAVE COMPLETED THAT PUZZLE, IF ONE OF MY GAMING BUDS HAD NOT BEEN THERE. I used the in game teleport and jumped to him. Otherwise, I would have LEFT. I can stand banging my head against a wall only so long.

And here all of you are telling me… “Keep banging your head. You can do it!”

I can’t beat Michael Phelps in a swimming race. I can’t outthink Stephen Hawking. I can’t outcook Gordon Ramsey. I can’t outspend Bill Gates. In short, there’s lots of things that any one of us here IS NOT CAPABLE OF.

I find it mind boggling that none of you seem to be able to grasp that some people JUST CAN’T DO JUMPING PUZZLES. Especially one that is SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO BE VERY DIFFICULT.

Are you na or eu, I could try doing the jp through teamviewer if the lag aint to bad.

Or your friend can buy the next expansion and get base+hot bundled in

So you can sell the weapon at lvl 29 but not 30?

Are you sure its not the level up rewards your trying to sell?
All you can do with those are use or destroy

he dont give you a legendary he sells you a book to start the first collection part of 3 to get the precursor you can then make into a legendary

Rukia.9860:

I always thought GW2’s cash shop was pretty horrible. It has always been barren.

Less items in there than F2P MMO’s I’ve played, and a lot of the skins are not even permanent. It makes me outright not want to buy anything that isn’t always in there. It seems like an insult to the players intelligence. They think that people will buy something once they take it out for x amount of time, but really it just makes you jaded about it and not want to buy eventually.

I could see alternating items on a month by month basis to make room for other items, but only because GW2 doesn’t even had a filter system for their skins. The reason being there is no need, when you can scroll through every skin in about 2 seconds.

Another reason I see the skins in cash shop pretty bad in GW2 is most of them are full costume. You can’t even wear just one or two pieces of it, you have to don the entire set. Wtf? Yeah cool.. because I wanna look like every one else with the same full set.

I wonder how many skins they have taken out, and left some of the most terrible looking ones in lol.

You dont need to wonder you can see all the skins in the wardrobe panel.

They started doing outfits full body skins as you call em, when people complain that the only new armor skins into the game was through gem shop.
They decided new skins only through in game means from there on out, hence why we only get it with expansions now and when they bring back the sets they made before.

I havent checked but I guess you can get those through the random rare or below skin unlocks too maybe?

Zeyta.3519:

Tiefsee.3647:

You buy an one time use of the skin, BUT can reuse it when you got extra transmutations, look at it that way

I am looking at it that way, and that is the problem. I bought my skin. I should have my skin wherever and whenever. I’m pretty sure TC’s were created and still around for the purpose of making extra money and filling in extra rewards. TC’s should not be a reward, they should be a given. That space on a PVP track should be given to champ loot bags or something else. It’s the players that have to spend the extra time if they don’t want to give real money over and it’s the players that are ultimately paying for the redundant reward.

If you enjoy this, and support it, more power to you. But those of us that don’t like to waste time for redundant things will continue to ask for improvement.

Do you also go to the store saying I bought this shirt here 1 month ago and now its broken I want a new shirt since I bought it once already.

If you want to keep the look then have several armors that you switch out like clothes or pay the kitten transaction fee to reskin the same armor.

Edit
Looks like I quoted the wrong person, anyway since people seem to buy the tc what do you say anet can sell to recup the lost revenue and the dev cost to revamp the system?

I havent seen them say hot will be free to play next expansion.
They did say tho that it will be bundled with the new so if you buy expansion 3 you get base game+hot+expansion3

Danikat.8537:

DoctorDing.5890:

I think the reward is the weapon and the warm feeling you get as you soak up the admiration of your fellow players. Actually, the last bit is a lie. If all the other players are like me you’ll see them staying further away from you than that used to, just to avoid the annoying audio and visual effects.

I suppose I could support a title for crafting one though. How about “I crafted this even though it was cheaper to buy one”?

“I used to be rich you know”.

Then I took an arrow to the knee

Server only matters for WvWvW mate

This is one of the few content that a guild have to organize for so please dont ask for it to get nerfed.
Are you guys eu or na, there are guilds/communities dedicated to this event in both server blocks.

gw2community do it 3 times a day on eu servers, you have to listen on teamspeak tho since if to many randoms burn down 1 wurm head before the others are ready it will fail.

Astralporing.1957:

In many ways, removing raiding from social equations might actually improve that part of the game. There’s just too much toxicity tied to that element.

(in my 20 years of multiplayer RPG gaming, all the guilds i was in – and i was in many – eventually fell apart due to causes that were rooted in raiding, or its pre-wow equivalent. I don’t remember any other factor that would be even half as disruptive as this one)

Unfortunately, in GW2 this pandora box has already been opened.

not an argument

good that you agree mate, I do aswell.

its the donate gifts to orphans that give the 10% karma boost globe, it also give a good chunk of karma for each gift you give away aswell

I think you need the mistward stuff to craft the skins so keep those

SmirkDog.3160:

There’s lots for collections (like Exotic Hunter and Grand Artisan), and one for putting two legendary weapons together (Twice-Told Legend), so why isn’t there a title for just making one? Shouldn’t we be rewarded for taking the time to collect the materials to craft them instead of just buying them off the TP? Something like just ‘Legendary’ would be nice.

I’m sure the people that bought their legendary weapons will be annoyed by this thread, but I want to be able to show people that I crafted mine. Why make the reward the same regardless of how you got to the goal?

Not putting two together.
Its to create 2 of the same one, since some people did that before we got wardrobe they got the title for their effort.

Don’t throw them out, wait until the next release.

Do you guys have a date for the next release yet?

They have all sorts of dates (not just medjool and barhi ) — the question is: are they willing to share those dates with us? And the answer to that is, as it always is, soon™.

No no the answers are always its on the table and when its ready.

press Y, lfg tab, then open world, central tyria parties.
Advertise your group write Tixx in the description and wait for it to get filled.

RoseofGilead.8907:

If it sounds/looks like an exploit, then it should be reported to the email address hornswroggle posted above. Make sure you send your video and any other proof you have. You should also delete the details of the exploit from this post; sharing how an exploit is done isn’t allowed on the forums.

This is why the OP delted their post maybe read the few answers before asking your question

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Fractals-Swampland-pedastel-interaction/first#post6433423

5 posts below this topic maybe read atleast on the first page before making a new thread?

Edit
Even got a red post answering then finding the fault but to late for hotfix so gave a suggestion on how to work around it.

Game of Bones.8975:

I would like to see the three harvesting slots be made into account-shared.

I can use salvaging kits from the shared inventory slots so I know it’s possible to do.

It would save time whenever I switch characters or initially log in and have to go through each character to find my account-based stuff I want to switch around.

Its easily fixed
1 buy tools for all your characters.
2 have 3 shared slots dubble click the normal tools in the 3 shared slot before loging out then you will always have your infinite tools waiting for you to dubble click them into the char you log on as.

Yes nice to see communication Benjamin, keep up the good work.

Cubular fells the jump puzzle north west corner of mount maelstrom is easily missed

Maybe this link will help some areas got no poi,vista, hero point etc for example Promenade of the Gods in cursed shore

OutOfMyMind.9613:

Problem is that the 2 accounts I do jumping puzzles with have NOT completed the “For The Children” achievement and thus should get the chest. Also none of the items in the missing chest are the ornaments needed for that achievement / collection.

Then its becouse you already got those ornaments for the collection and dont need the extra chest anymore.

But your on the forum how did you lose this account?

it wont help at all mate.
we still got people trying to search the forums even with said sticky

Well its quite early in the morning mate.

Have you checked the trading post? from the wiki it says a sell price of abit over 10 gold each so they seem to be tradeable just like bolt of damask and deldrimore steel

And people who dont see an issue with said system are perfectly ok to come here and say so.

It might not be a big enough click of the game population that agree with you to be worth the cost the rewamping of the system would cost.

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

duster.7013:

I cannot play in the open world content without falling asleep.

Perhaps more coffee or black tea or herba mate.

take some ginger and put it under the lip, also grind some down and blow it up your nose work wonders aswell.

Cynova.7406:

Just a flesh wound.3589:

“they are rarely if ever the skins that have been unavailable for months if not years now.”

What skins have been unavailable for years?

“I was at the devs office I’d just write in the code, make it live, and be done with it. No idea why they aren’t putting them in other than to irritate their players.”

Just because you can’t think of reasons why a store would have things available occasionally rather than continuously doesn’t mean that the only possible reason is to irritate players. If it was there all the time people can put off buying because they know there is no rush. An item appearing after being gone fuels purchases. An store where the items rarely change is a store where also people stop checking what’s on there. If they aren’t checking the store, they forget it’s there and again, the business loses sales.

I’m just assuming on how long some of these items have been unavailable for. I didn’t start looking for some of them until a few months ago, but I’ve been waiting for the Mask Of The Wanderer since last Christmas 2015. If it was available it probably was for a day at the most and I may have missed it. But a day out of a year… it’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack when trying to be around for a sale like that.

I can think of many reasons why the store is holding back items. I just can’t think of any that aren’t ridiculous and actually less-effective ways to make profit. Because all they are achieving with this method, IS irritating players looking for these items.

The problem is that most of the items are not available occasionally. When was the last time you saw Strider’s Armor or Mask Of The Wanderer? I can understand the appeal method of holding back items and making them eventful and limited releases. They do that in other businesses. But it’s usually seasonal. If they told me one of these items was coming back next Christmas I would save for it and plan to get it at that time. They could do expected surge sales. It would probably be even more profitable if people could expect and save for it. Not surprised randomly after they just exhausted all their expenses on something else not knowing these items were coming out. But when their is no date to expect and no hint of them even thinking about putting the item back on the market, and it hasn’t been seen available in so long, that is when it becomes ridiculous. At that point, take it out of the wardrobe so I don’t have to be reminded of how there is an item listed that I cannot do anything to get.

They are literally making no money on these unavailable items. They could be if they put them out. I’d buy them.

If they tell in advance people can just slowly do gold to gem and they dont gain any new money mate.

The short sales make alot of people impulse buy and drain more gold from the economy since a crap ton of people buy gems with gold.

here is a good thread if you want to read some.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/players/OMG-If-you-only-knew-this-tips-for-new-players/first

Well from this thread I would say mask of the wanderer

Well they dident boost it at all when they took away magic find so why not just add abit boon and condi duration.

Yes but most mmos also have a you can sell it for up to 72 hours then it will auto cancel and you have to repost.
That make people lower their sell offers aswell but that dont happen in Gw2 as it can be up for years for no additional cost.

Edit.
Imagine the 10k chack egg sacks having to be repost every 3 days for example or legendaries and precursors.

Amaimon.7823:

Linken.6345:

I can understand the first two answers since its 2 min’s apart so an accident due to typing abit longer on the second, the third almost 3 hours later was an over kill tho.

how is it overkill? OP was confused about a mechanic and we explained how it worked? is explaining stuff a form of agitation nowadays? I think you’ve spend too much time on tumblr

What is this tumblr you speak of mate?

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Do note that the World Selection window will only give a general population range, such as Full, High, Medium. The order within each range means little, and will change with each ‘click’ of the population tab. It also only applies to WvW, and is not associated with PvE. There are no ‘RP PvP’ servers, but some loosely player-designated RP PvE Server/Worlds. NA being Tarnished Coast; I forget the EU one.

Welcome to Tyria, and good luck.

The eu one is piken square

I can understand the first two answers since its 2 min’s apart so an accident due to typing abit longer on the second, the third almost 3 hours later was an over kill tho.

Amaimon.7823:

Classes can’t wear other classes’ armor armor because the light, medium and heavy sets are fundamentally different. Devs already tried mixing them, and it did more harm than good. They now just make a few skins which look identical in all three forms, but make no mistake. Its not one item enabled three times. Its the same model made from scrap three times

And if you read the OP they said you werent going to mix and match.
But wear full heavy or medium on a light armor class.

So the old you cant mix light, medium and heavy skins argument dont work against this suggestion.

Personaly I wouldent want everyone running around in light armor.

Well you could always upgrade the thick leathers in the forge mate.

Edit
Might not be a good idea tho since you need it for the ascended crafting.

Anets servers?

Yea I still need a buttload of drinks myself.

Djinn.9245:

Khisanth.2948:

Djinn.9245:

I completely agree. The issue I have is that if I purchase a precursor, the Legendary I get will be unbound and I can sell it. If you craft a precursor, often for more $ than purchasing, the Legendary you get is bound. Not sure why Anet decided to make it bound. They should have kept it unbound and people could simply choose which path to take to the same end item.

because they did leave it that way and you are just confused …

Hm, I just went to the Chuka and Champawat page in the Wiki and it says “Account Bound”. Is the Wiki wrong?

Linken.6345:

Yea only way to get it bound to character is equip it or putting a sigil in it.

I didn’t say BtC, I said bound and talked about being able to sell it.

Since you were talking buying the legenday/precursor on the tp VS crafting it, I thought you were talking about the generation 1 pre/legends.

Since you cant buy the 2 generation legendary/precursors at all on the tp.
