Guild Wars 2

You can put infusions in it just fine (same infusions as you can put in infused ascended backpacks). But you cant put orbs/jewels in it like the name suggests.

Why? You get plenty of Chak Eggs for doing the meta

It already is for most “skill levels”. You just need to put in effort to learn the mechanics of the bosses.

All I know that you can only get trophy items from 1st and 3rd boss, the 2nd encounter was forgotten

Why does the 2nd boss encounter in the new raid wing not give any trophy items for the guild hall? It has an unique looking reward chest like the other raid encounters, but sadly gives no trophy items to build it for the guild hall.

He’s right, we need to get legendary armor by other means than raids, like wvw or pvp. Gated behind raids is just bad, what would you think if Twilight was gated behind 100 lv fractals 2000 world bosses and 100,000 events done.

Doing raids is not unrealistic. They are easier than the average raid I saw in other games. People beat them in the first days after release.

Organized groups beat them easily, what about lfg sistem?

They are not designed for scrubs who use lfg system because then they would be boring for organised groups

It would be nice if the “Mystic Chromatic Ooze” would work inside of raid instances so I could look more shiny while killing the bosses.

You screwed up. You should have acc bounded Twilight before forging.
The achievement even says “soulbind”

People already answered you. Exalted Legend is for this season, Primordial Legend was for last season and next season will have a new title.

I found a visualisation of your question:
http://cliparts.co/cliparts/pT7/KGM/pT7KGMgT9.png

I noticed that I have 1 achievement point more than I should have (32290 instead of 32289) when manually adding up all my achievements. If I use my API key on gw2efficiency it reports 32289 AP as well, so I assume my excel sheet (rechecked everything multiple times) is correct.
So for an unknown reason I have 1 AP more than I should have and the ingame counter is not working correctly.

On a side note there is a fake achievement in the category “Flame and Frost”, which needs to be deleted.
“Minor in Achievement”, worth 15 AP, it is a duplicate of “Minor in Achievement” from the “Super Adventure Box” category. According to my information around 10k people have this fake achievement unlocked. Noone knows why some people have this fake achievement unlocked, but it needs to go.

Random Weird Guy.3528:

Maybe it’s using the new state-of-the-art Silent Gliding™ technology?

Pretty sure it is just another unfinished release of Anet considering the legendary backpiece did not even offer all stats until after a patch.

The droprate is fairly high. On average I got 1 meteorite ore per node. Are you sure you are at the right stage of the collection?

Laserbolt.6731:

I find that I enjoy unranked much more than Ranked at the moment. Isn’t that pretty much SoloQ?

Not really. You face pve guilds doing guild missions all the time. Also you cannot progress your league standings there.

The ascension glider seems to be making no sound effects during gliding. All other glides do. This must be an oversight?

I deleted quite a few lvl 80s. No regrets.

Yes, mesmers need a nerf. It just shows how absurdly overpowered good mesmers were before all the nerfs.
Mesmer needs a lot of skill and experience to play good, but then it is easily one of the top 3 classes at the moment.

Not really, but the whole pvp in this game is really unfun. Balance is laughable bad and matchmaking too. If PvP in this game wouldnt be tied to achievement points I wouldnt touch it at all.

I am sick of tired of facing full premades just because some people duoQ. Just now I had to play against a full guild team (diamond level) because on our team there was a emerald+diamond duo. This is just stupid and needs to be get rid of immediatly. It is simply unacceptable for things like this to happen.
When I soloQ I dont want to be a filler for people who are partied up. Make one queue strictly soloQ and a 2nd queue strictly duo to full team (no soloQ allowed).

Bolt is a longsword and not a shortsword. It is fine the way it is.

Yes, HoT needs to be harder. I was sad when Chark Gerrent was nerfed to easy mode.

Does salvaging the backpack from Sabetha give any?

We need something larger than “larger”. It is miniscule on 4k+ resolutions.

I will test this. I got my backpack today.

EDIT: Not bugged. Orbs and exquisite jewels can not be put into them.

They should have made it so that you need diamond in all seasons of the year of ascension for ascended backpack and legendary in all the seasons for legendary backpack. It is too easy to get ascended one atm.

Gaile Gray.6029:

Congratz, Mal — that’s very impressive!

Thanks Gaile, did not expect someone from Anet to respond to this thread

You need to tag him fast. If you get no champion box from Ulgoth you wont get credit to the collection. Only the first ~50 people (groups may override it if a single person in group tagged fast enough) who tag an enemy get loot.

I think the person must be dc for 2minutes or more to not loose pips. And not in party with you.

Maybe you should loose some games so your MMR gets lower.

I did this legend with a small group of maybe 10 random people at most. It is definitely possible with few people if they use cc at the right time. There was a few min on timer left as well.

EphemeralWallaby.7643:

You’re only as old as the person you’re feeling.

That’s the saying, right? Meh, close enough for me…

~EW

I feel 80 years old, sometimes 100 :O

I think the crystal develops based on guild activity, like the old influence system, but a hidden value. At least I am pretty sure to have seen it grow without guild lvl going up. If it slowed growing for you maybe your overall guild activity went down or a greater value of the “hidden influence” is needed to make further growth.

Astralporing.1957:

Though unlike it was with original fractal weapons, it IS possible to aim at a specific one.

Overall it is still a lot more time consuming to get. You had about 25% chance to get a blue weapon if you did 50 40 30 daily. Now you have roughly 2,5-3% chance for a gold one if you do all the dailies. Considering you need to salvage 10 golden ones to craft a specific golden weapon, it takes much longer to collect all 19 skins.

Even 5 stacks of shards would be a bad deal imho

people still take Helseth seriously?

LordHelseth is overrated. All he does is spamming cheesy mesmer tricks like portals and double moa.

Plus all the wait was for nothing because now the fractal leaderboards wont even come with it.

Look at [KING]’s research. The droprate is abysmal for anything below 51-100 daily. It is waaaay harder to get all golden weapons than it was to get all blue weapons before HoT. Anet replaced one RNG lottery with a worse one…

Doing 76-100 is your best bet. The chance to get a gold skin from the lvl 51-100 daily chest is about 2,5%, much lower from the other dailies. Since there are 19 skins, the chance to get the shield is pretty low. Though you could collect golden fractal relics from salvaging other golden fractal weapons until you have 10 and craft the shield.

^Happened to me yesterday (and at least someone else in the matchup, too)
can confirm this bug.

but OP please learn how to take screenshots. Hint: you do not need a camera for it

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Congratulations, Malediktus.9250 — quite an accomplishment.

Why do I read this with a sarcastic voice when it comes from you?

I dont like the outside game. It has perma death and everything is an eternal grind. Only the graphics, audio and physics are top notch.

You can use any kit, but to maximize ecto and dark matter gain I would use at least a yellow kit.

style.6173:

Disagree. The lord does NOT need a buff. The points awarded from the lord needs a NERF.

Then we might as well delete him. Just making him stronger should be enough.

Yes lord needs a buff. We just had a match we were winning (just ~30 pts to go) and then they rushed lord. We managed to down them all but they managed to finish lord in downed mode. Especially OP since they had a ranger with bristleback who could still use his F2 skill on lord. Really stupid to loose a pip for this.

insanemaniac.2456:

and how exactly would you find out theyre lying if you get the boss to 1%?

All the bosses can be done with less than 10 and you notice if that person who linked 30 insights was being carried.

Loosmaster.8263:

Dungeons….just be glad they didn’t lock any of the requirements behind Raids, lol.

Armors are locked behind raids :P
And I think dungeons would actually be more fun requirements than fractals. Fractals got boring as hell with the HoT rework.

Just got put into a match of stronghold (soloQ) despite having that deactivated. There was not even the option to vote for a map before the game started. Someone in chat complained about the same issue during the match.

fishball.7204:

I’m surprised you didn’t complain about the stupid RNG in Bifrost 3 from the Corals that you needed for the paint lol.

Anyway congrats, not sure if you’re world first but you beat me. I only did all the non-HoT pres and nevermore pre so far, stopped cuz of PvP leagues.

Yes, I forgot about the coral part. I basically farmed thouse in Mount Maelstrom when it was Golem Mk2 time or sunday (most people do guild missions then). And hopped between the map instances. Still took some hours to get the required amount.

Malediktus.9250:

Not sure if I am the first to do this and it is not important to me

….says the person with the sig of “5th person worldwide to reach 30,000 achievement points. Currently bearer of 101 titles (excluding “No Title”).”

Not important, huh?

Well, good for you. No need to be modest. That’s your thing and it’s impressive. Congrats on finishing all those collections.

You got me there I guess. But there is no way for me to find out if it is a world first or not (unless Anet devs verify).
