Guild Wars 2

Either the matchmaking is really bad with considering group comps as they didn’t have any mesmers or any warriors or I was up against a premade.

Same error when solo queueing. Comcast in chicago. Server TC. I was in a group earlier and someone else queued up and that seemed to work.

fixed, tyvm

still doesn’t work mine.

Isn’t fixed for me neither

mine neither

I was having a conversation with a guildie about this yesterday and I told him that I kinda view their communication similar to using the mystic forge to get a precursor. If you have no expectations, then you won’t be disappointed. I’m not saying this is ideal…just saying how I’ve come to deal with the situation.

i was having this problem and found this and so far it seems to be helping:
1: Right-click your gw2.exe and choose Properties.
2: Go to the Compatibility tab.
3: Under Settings check-mark ’Disable display scaling on high DPI settings

The Hero’s and Mistforged Hero’s Weapons will be Rare and Exotic, respectively, and will have a variety of stat combinations to select from. You could also just use them as skins if there is another weapon you prefer to rock (ya know, for stats n’ stuff).

But you still didn’t give an answer to how much will it cost to upgrade the weapon, what kind of tokens are we gonna need, how much is gonna cost?

Maybe they mean for the lack of information to be a surprise. In either case I guess we’ll find out tomorrow.

I use a condi pu(just in case you don’t know with being gone for a while…pu stands for the Primsatic Understanding in grandmaster trait in chaos) build for wvw roaming that uses staff/gs. For pve I switch to power build with gs sword/focus.

I don’t want to be a jerk, but besides the music, everything in this vid is awfull:

1. HotJoin footage? srs? Killing some noobs who don’t even know how to find the real Mesmer doesn’t show anything
2. Capping close with 2 players while nobody keeps heading to mid
3. 1st Midfight: Even though you have had access to stuff like: distrotion, bodyblocking clones and stealth, you don’t use anything to get a savestomp. Not to mention that you didn’t even try to interrupt the 2nd enemy who was rezzing the warrior
4. 1st fight on close: “trolling” lol. You lost the point pretty fast and were some times near to death vs. a warrior who had now idea what “clones” are
5. 2nd fight on close: you even managed to let the other players cap the point
6. you also almost never made use of blink shortcuts on the

But hey,

7. Good on you for getting involved in the game and producing some works of where you’re at. Clearly you’ve got a few things to learn, and one day you can be a kitten player like EverythingEnds. Then you can send away for your very own arrogant jerk card and blow off newbs on the forums. ;D

i’m going to have to agree with this guy. I really don’t think EverythingEnds achieved his goal of not coming across as a jerk but I do think there is hope for him to be a more positive supportive member of the community as he did indicate that he was trying to not be a jerk.

would ele staff lava font damage be changed by this?

Carighan.6758:

Was this sPvP only? That would kind of explain why nearly no one knew about it, then.

the official patch update does say its only spvp

Evan Lesh.3295:

There is currently a bug with all NPC damage in PvP being higher than intended. We are shooting to get this fixed before the Tournament of Legends.

edit: nvm….the official patch notes does indicate it was only in spvp.

nevermind…..black lion salvage kit allows me to get the rune ^.^

I have a set of traveler runes. With how expensive the runes are, before the patch, I would use transmutation stones to apply those runes to a new armor with different stats. After the patch, I do not see a way of doing this….please tell me that I am missing something with this.

Thanks.

so I did some testing this evening and I found out that superior runes of the ranger does not work for mesmers. I was little sadden by this. I started thinking about rangers and their pets and the functionality they serve and tried to compare that to mesmer clones. Specifically the qualities that that would identify a companion(the 6 piece bonus is +5% while you have a companion). Both are essential to the classes’ fighting mechanics. Both do have HP. One is only out during a battle and the other can be called out even when not in battle(I don’t think this would eliminate from being a companion). Rangers can call out any pets they gathered while mesmer is restricted to the weapons they are using(again, I don’t this this quality should eliminate clones from being considered a companion). Now I’m not familiar with rangers too much so there might be qualities of a ranger pet that would better qualify the pets for being a companion when compared to a mesmer clone. If that is the case then hopefully someone can let me know ^.^ and please don’t mention how it says rune of the ranger. Runes of the mesmer 6 piece says for +33% daze duration and i’m pretty sure that isn’t limited to only mesmers.

For those who may not have AVG Installed, and still have this error message, try the following…

- Open command prompt be sure to ‘’ Run As Administrator’’
- Type in….. “netsh int ip reset”…. without quote marks …Press enter…
- After that type in……“netsh winsock reset”….. without quote marks into the command line …..Press enter
- Restart your computer to finalize the procedure. Then try firing up the client again, be sure to ‘’ Run as Administrator ’’

Good Luck. This worked for me.

you’re awesome….thank you for posting this.

Malganis.7468:

They are doing maintenence right now, and it will affect things such as guild chat.

makes sense….I saw the message but I thought it just said it might interfere with my connection but I probably wan’t paying that much attention lol

I suggest rewarding good behavior in addition to punishing bad…that was at least he “good” people will benefit and the “bad” people will have something to strive for. For example: I would love the ability to have an image in my signature and this might be a way to implement that. Just a random thought.

Josh Davis.6015:

Morning,

Just got into the office. I’ll follow-up on this today, and if I hear anything, I’ll let you folks know.

Thanks!

Have you not heard anything regarding this 4 days later?

Can’t say anything in guild chat. I asked a guild member and they confirmed that they also couldn’t.

15 minutes later it looks like both me and my guildie are seeing the money we were expecting.

I sold an item to a buy order and the amount of money that I had waiting for me did not update. I had a guildie try it to see if someone else was having the issue and he also experienced the same issue.

My suggestion is to eliminate(or significantly reduce the restriction) for in game mail when you are sending mail to people in your own guild. I am trying to send mail to someone regarding status of all the guild members but I can’t because:
1)each mail is limited to how much can go onto it
2)I can’t send more than 2 emails without triggering the excessive messaging notification.

Thanks.

I was having lag issues recently….I did a repair and seems to be better now. Hopefully this helps.

I just started working on my asura toon today and find that most of the boots has my characters toes sticking out on each side. Are there any medium boots that don’t have this problem?

Thanks.

doesn’t really bother me.

turn off autotargetting….problem solved

anet doesn’t like maguuma =(

Rofl, #4 vs #5 vs #7 and you cry that loud?
In a winner up looser down system you would play
vs Blackgate instead of TC, i.e. #3 vs #5 vs #7

Crying? It was an attempt at humor but I realize how humor doesn’t always translate well when typed. Honestly I am kinda enjoying it….I would much rather be on this side than the other. Being the larger side just gets boring after a while.

anet doesn’t like maguuma =(

I’m hoping that I am wrong but some of the new crafting stuff(dragonite ore) is going to be acquired from temples and mega bosses and from wvw keeps and castles. While I do appreciate being able to get this new material from wvw, I really see this only further encouraging zerging(and possibly to a further extent, continue to discourage defending).

Haworth.4561:

A fifth map could actually solve the skill lag, I guess.

The skill lag is caused by large zerg battles. And with a fifth map, they could lower the limit of how many people can play on each map, and still have room so everyone can play in WvW.

Sadly while the game mechanics encourages zerging, it doesn’t matter how many maps there are, people will still zerg. I think this is something they said they were going to address though so we’ll see what happens.

yeah…I kinda agree with op but I guess I’m just used to it at this point. It used to be more annoying towards the release but the lack of information did make it difficult trying to figure out if something was a bug or not.

thanks for the info.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Aetherized_Axe_Skin indicates that the skins should be 1 black lion claim ticket. When I go to the vendor is shows the items listed kitten tickets.

edit: kitten = as five

old matchup was better because at least the servers were a bit closer in terms of ranks. Oh well…maybe next week we will actually have a different matchup

i’m not sure if I should feel special that we are randomly fighting the same servers again this week or sad.

Thanks for all the information guys…..after many many many tries, I was able to do this with the info you all posted.

normally I don’t thank people enough to have this problem but with the way the queen’s gauntlet is designed, I prefer people rez me rather than running back and after doing the last boss so many times and thanking people, I am getting this message alot now.

after looking I find the points that I spent earlier tonight were reset for some reason.

I’ve been away for a couple months and can’t find how to respec my character. I used to go to the trainer and there was an option for resetting your traits but I don’t see that option. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

based on what I saw with the reduced hp in downed, you first need to do a video recording before they are willing to acknowledge there is a bug. Maybe with it being right after the patch it will be different but if there is no response regarding this subject….this is probably why lol

I would like to believe they see this but either one of two things. Either they are working on it or they aren’t. Fact is that it is something necros have to deal with right now. If it bothers you enough stop playing or play a different class. If enough people stop playing necros then there might be some more priority put on fixing some of the bugs. Continuing to post on the forums don’t seem to be getting any type of response in regards to this so not really sure if you are simply wasting your time. I’ll be very happy if anet proves me wrong that posting these types of things on the forum is useful and we can get some type of feedback.

Snowreap.5174:

It’s my understanding that you do get WXP for defending, but you only get half the usual amount. However, you get that amount every time the “defend” event completes

This is not true. You only get WXP from defending if you have repaired something or killed someone in the building.

You get bronze defender WXP when you repaired 4-12 supply, silver when you repaired 14-22 and gold when you repaired 24 supply or more.

So, the enemy can attack all they want and you can fight all you want for hours: if you don’t repair or kill you get zero WXP.

Is this documented somewhere so I can get more information regarding this? On the wiki page it simply says a specific point value for defending(not the breakdown you are providing) http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World_Experience

Thanks.

Its pretty simple I think. If the game doesn’t provide features you want, then you leave. Its one of those cons>pros and compared to when the game launched, there has been a drastic decline in spvp. I’m not saying it is only because of lack of dueling but I believe it is the mentality of not working on it(and other features people would like) is the reasons why. You can chose to not look at the past(totally your choice) but I find value in it to get an idea of where things are going.

Evan Lesh.3295:

….If we aren’t prioritizing a feature, its because there simply isn’t enough demand, or there is some, but we’re really confident it would not help the game as much as another feature.

I have to question why this is not enough in demand. My only idea is that the people who would have wanted these types of features have already stopped playing the game as I do recall this is something that was being asked for from before release.

I didn’t realize there was already a post out there expressing these experiences. This thread can be closed.

The introduction of Wxp has changed the motivations for the way (some)people play in wvw. I am seeing commanders not bothering to defend anything after taking it in favor of moving onto the next thing to take. If Wxp is a deciding factor when it comes to this, should we just give up things(not bother defending, not bother upgrading) in favor of moving on to take something else while the opposing servers take the thing we just did because defending is not as worth it? It was always more efficient to be the team taking stuff but the introduction of Wxp seems to separate taking and defending even more. While Wxp may have given people more incentive and more people to play(which is cool), I think wvw may have moved in not the best of directions. I’m sure this game will continue to change and I hope that future changes will improve this experience.

I haven’t been in structured pvp for a while but I just leveled up a new toon and wanted to try out some new specs in pvp. I go to heart of the mists and get my character set up and go into some “Join Now” games. Each one of these rooms people were telling me that this was a dueling room….some of them were being rather rude about it. Anet really does need to give people an option to duel if this is their only option for being able to do so. But I wanted to make this thread just in case anyone else is in a similar situation, they might know a little better what to expect beforehand.

Thanks for posting this and providing examples of how to do 1 v many as it seems to be more difficult with this class.

I’m not sure if this has been mentioned but some information I just found in regards to the Spiteful Talisman bug. When you hit the focus 5 ability(Spinal Shivers) and move the mouse over to focus 4 ability(Reaper’s Touch) as the cd of #5 is counting down from seconds 16-9 the range of #4 shows the shorter 900 range but after that from second 0-9, it shows the 1200 range.

Just an idea for a helm skin that would be awesome……a crown.

that is all.

kthxbye
