Guild Wars 2

This last update, has made it much harder for my guild to coordinate events together. We end up on different maps from each other and have to reform parties several times to get into maps for guild missions or pve events we run. Work needs to be done on selecting a map for guild priority.

So, with the wardrobe update, I lost my the piece of armor I had transmuted this skin on to and the rune. It just vanished out of my inventory when I logged in and I went back to buy it after seeing it wasn’t unlocked as a skin, and it is no longer available from the merchant. Anyway you can address this issue? I filed a ticket already as well, but I doubt I am the only one that lost this item.

Breaking the formula for every other ascended crafting and making it 100 over 50 is the problem. It is inexcusably arbitrary on their part and it needs to be adjusted asap. They fixed the problem when they went to 3 from 2, a step when players like me who had already refined to bolts, got a free 50% boost on stockpiles. I will end up buying some because I was predicting 50 bolts per like a rational person would expect. Doubling the cost of the recipe stresses the reasonable amount a player will get in the 24 hour window they have to refine. 150 scraps is doable for an active player, the ones likely to make ascended, but 300 isn’t without buying. Seriously, does anyone at anet have a legitimate reason why you broke format for damask?

They set the value with the exchange. 119g and 6 fine transmutes is $20. If you like the armor, buy the ht3 like everyone else. Being an advocate of these gem store reskins is supporting a trend that will ruin the game if it continues. In game acquisition of an item will have no value if they release an easy cheap gem version of it to make a quick buck because it is popular. If there is nothing to acquire with game play, people won’t play the game. Maybe you should think about what is best for the game instead of what you like best.

Whether you like it or not isn’t the issue, you are supposed to like the high end skins. Providing it at less cost and to any race is one issue, but the real problem was selling prestige skins for gems with only a slight mod. That is the path to seeing twilight on the gemstore as a skin without the stat changing. You should be thrilled they rethought this business plan or we would see more lazy work trying to capitalize on existing item popularity. The medium and heavy need a rework too if they want me to be okay.

There was no way for them to look good when they released and there is no way to make everyone happy now. Their best bet would be to pull all three, actually make meshes that are unique and update all of these armor sets. Even though I was offended most by the T3, they are all horribly lazy and can only be viewed as quick cash grab. The medium skin has messed up the original version of the armor and your coat is no longer visible between your legs from the front. I don’t know of a heavy problem, but if you are going to make the effort to redo one(hopefully such a good job that you will please the people that bought it) you should make the effort for all three.

Speaking of armor and cultural armor, please fix T2 norn light wich has messed up your arm tattoos and your arm clips through the other sleave, a complaint I made the first month of the game that has never been addressed.

The right thing to do would have been thinking for 2 minutes about what they were doing when they added this skin; they did the only thing they could do at this point by removing it.

I actually bought a set of sorcerer yesterday for a human Elementalist I made after my Ranger and Mesmer who I didn’t think it suited, so I went with medium when doing emperor. I like the non-flame version better but I would have used the 80g Gem store version anyway if I had waited a day and saved myself the extra 60g when you add the transmutes.

With moneygrubs like this new batch of armor and always trying to draw from the same customers; people will probably look at buying the cultural armor as the better deal two months from now. The player base isn’t going to keep supporting their greed and gems will only go higher.

They are adding new mechanics post 30 so it is actually content nobody has done, not just a reset for leaderboards. Is there a reason you should get credit for something that you haven’t completed because you did something that used to exist? I am happy about the changes even though I am losing 18 levels on my main a level 28 alt and a level 20 one. Fractal chest instead of rng and not having to waste a fine transmute along with new content and gold rewards; slap me some more if that is what you are calling it.

Yeah, this isn’t going to happen and that is the way it should be. We got the rewards for our time spent like we were supposed to. For me it was getting fast rings and skins running a 40 main and two 20s that I also leveled. Others got the better loot they thought dropped for the 40 daily and some the experience of doing extreme content in the 80s. The fractals are getting an overhaul that it needed and the content won’t be the same post 30, and we don’t deserve to be grandfathered into something we have never done.

Any champ or veteran related to an event can have this, I was turned off at first but after noticing I picked up 4 of these doing my regular routine, I quickly finished it up last night. The world bosses are pretty good for this; fast spawning ones like the dredge, or ulgoth, who also has champ beasts in his event are ones you should check that are on third party site timers. Other timers listing all champs can help. The fire shaman in iron marches should be checked whenever you see it up, if he has buff, you can get credit for 3, one at each phase. Megadestroyer veterans can spawn with this. If you are in a hurry you can force this acheivement, but you will get it anyway within the two weeks just from normal play.

The easiest way to do this is to activate it at top and jump off though middle to restart from CP. Jump back up to get to first floor and dodge around that column like you would to get back to ramp and you will be at ramp before Gong shows up. You only have to change sides once when you do it this way to get past two traps to exit.

Putting a cap on baubles with the account bound chests and digs and then scaling up the difficulty of world 2 to 50X that of world 1 can’t help but give players the impression you are forcing them to buy the continue coin from the gem store.

I did and 30g poorer, I was able to muscle through W2-2 which just has way too many insta-kills. It was more like Ghosts&Goblins and way harder than anything Zelda 1 threw at you-having a life bar that gradually decreases when you make a mistake helps you actually play. Dying because you rolled into instakill traps to avoid monkeys that will knock you back and are invincible half the time, made me feel like I was jumping over hoards of bats and skeletons without my armor again-not something I ever wanted to do.

As for other explore by death scenarios: There are traps at points where you are jumping up to that you have never explored that will kill you. There are bombs on precision jumps that seem unavoidable and will knock you off. Owls can tag you in midair jumps and kill you. The flower pads sometimes seemed to throw me in directions I wasn’t facing and also of varying distances.

The life bar is almost a non-factor in this map-if you get hit once most of the environment will cause it to be your death. Spamming lives at a map to get through doesn’t really seem like good design and it definitely isn’t fun gameplay.

The river and some fights would benefit greatly if bombs had ground targeting.

I mentioned it in another thread. This fight is incredibly hard for colorblind players with the floor they used-some people might have problems seeing the circles but they don’t exist at all for me. I wouldn’t find this fight that bad if I could see them. I could actually look at what the enemies are doing instead of looking up at the ceiling the entire fight.

ranger 20 20 0 30 0
take the shortbow perks but don’t take piercing and take nature’s voice. Just kite around in a circle using guard to keep 100% regen and you will get the acheivement for killing only boss too.

She might be impossible for colorblind players like me. You can’t see the circles on the ground at all if you are red/green and I have to spend the entire fight looking up for the clouds which makes it really nasty to keep track of every shadow walking around. I usually don’t make it to the third phase and when I do, dodging her attacks and keeping track of the aoe fields up top, well, I don’t have a chance. I would have been done after 10 or 20 tries if this had just been on a stone floor or if you could pick your AoE warning color.

I have yet to find a room where I can’t place first every time, so I always pass the victory. It would be great if more of these events they add we’re like random arenas in gw1 wher you get bracketed. It would have made dragonball awesome, though in this event, a match between elite players would probably be decided if one of them got three aspect masters on the first three lines.

There are some servers where there are no off hours, in my case, Jade Quarry has made a full time job of camping Jumping Puzzle , they literally went from top server to losing when the split happened because it was diverting so many of their players. As far as I know, there is no way to be stealthed and use a torch or alternate light source. I can get there regardless of the camping usually, but you can’t go further. Best bet for me is to wait for the reset and get in fast, I can outpace 99.5% of the players that go there but there are certain points I can’t get through when camped efficiently.

nevermind, didn’t realize that you had you had to uncover named regions. There are two in timberline falls that are east to miss in very south east corner, tail of serpent and coil. There is one is brisbain wildlands in southwest called aurora. No PoIs, but you need to uncover the zones.

My map completion is at 100% on all objects, I have grabbed the new WPs and PoIs as they were added. However, with the new update, you can see the explorer splitsand my shiverpeak is only 173/175 and maguuma is 166/167. What is going on with this? Anyone with similar problem?

I have patience for retries, but if group isn’t showing any progress you just got to call it sometimes-learned that on fire fractal post 30. There is actually an advantage if a team is wiping and you get a bunch of leavers. You can post for a group at last boss and experienced players will jump in for quick chest. I do it all the time.

P.S. 5 engys would rock any dungeon. Most unapreciated class in game maybe.

I get pretty OCD about the achievements, but it wouldn’t make me quit. My first thought on the dungeon was that it was pretty hard-my party wiped 2 times on last boss, but I also enjoyed dungeon and felt like it had a good drop rate because of all the veterans. If you spend time there, you realize the achievements aren’t that hard to get-I did have to do relog for personal space but felt like I didn’t get credit one time when i went back through combat log.

It helps to look for an achievement oriented group because you will have experienced players in it. The trick to getting boss in under 15 minutes is to not have players drop during the bombard phase and to stack in every blue AoE to debuff fast. Support actually does better than DPS for this. I have done it three times now always with 2 or more guardians in group.

I was always just one or two laser hits from getting FTL and repetition will get you that one.
