Guild Wars 2

Wolfey.3407:

“Sorry, you don’t have enough money to place a bet. Come back when you have at least a silver.”

It’s a long way from 1 silver to 50 silver. O.o

Iruwen.3164:

That doesn’t mean they fix the other bugs, not to mention introduce new ones. I lost all trust in their work, especially after reading the Glassdoor review on ANet as an employer, specifically concerning their QA. It’s ridiculous.

I just began to read that.. it makes me really really sad. =(

Humm, I didn’t know where to test, so I ported through the world..

- against stationary things in lion’s arch: up to 2500 (they do not display critical hits, do they?)
- against skelks in southsun cove: 1500 maximum average
AND if they do stealth, my berserker is doing damage to them, but it is not shown
- against some foes in Orr: 1500 maximum average
- against the stunned claw 3000 to 5000 non critical (seems “normal”, but there are a few things that do high damage against the claw e.g. death shroud 4)
- against a dolyak: up to 2900
- against an elk: under thousand – 1300

I noticed that often my critical hits are lower than the non critical. Most of the time my critical hits are around 900 – 1500.

I do not exactly know how much my berserker was doing before, but it was NOT 1500 maximum in average (and critical hits were normally higher than non critical and I think I’ve seen a critical hit ~ 6k). Most of the time I think he was doing around 2400 – 4600 damage.
(Berserker was doing more than 2500 maximum on the stationary target in lion’s arch.. that is for sure..)

Don’t count on these numbers. Not sure if I remember everything right, but it should show the trend..

Xaelous, I could not see if it decreased still more since the last update, but I was just doing a quick check.. so maybe after I played for a while I will see if and what happened..

If I remember right the first time berserker has been bugged (in November 2012) there was a problem with the whirl which also affected the warrior.
They fixed the berserker in December.. (so I think the warrior issue as well)

Then at the end of January it became buggy again… they told us they cannot find out what is happening… if you as a warrior also have this kind of bug (again), it might be the same or a similar issue of what happened before..

Uh oh.. it’s getting worse (and ridiculous)..

I hadn’t time to test it out yet, but if your berserker achieved to do 4.5k in its bugged condition and now just 900 how much damage will mine be able to do now? (He was doing something around 1500..)

I have to test that out…

Do you say he is still bugged (as he should be because he never was fixed) or did you encounter another bug/ damage reduction since they introduced the new 11th June update?

Just tried to reach someone.. :-(
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Mesmer-is-broken-Massive-bug/first#post2196295

It’s not funny anymore… -.-

I would like to have fun…. with my mesmer.. instead it’s frustrating..
The lack of communication doesn’t help either!

Has someone tested if the new fixes have some “side effects” for the mesmer profession?

We finally killed her and got the achievement! <3

It seems that it is working again, but now too few players are online. :-(

I found the statement and Robert indeed says there is no time limit to the achievement (https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/livingworld/southsun/Crazed-Karka-Queen-achievement-BUG/first#post2180630), but there also is the statement that all achievements will be gone after the 11th (https://www.guildwars2.com/en/community-news/a-guide-to-last-stand-at-southsun-cove/).
Which statement is the valid one?

However, I am quite disappointed that there are a lot of bugs that came with the living story which have not been fixed yet.

Thanks.
I will have a look into the achievement statement, because then I do not have to rush through it right now..

But the question to the devs remains (even if they will not patch it until this living story ends): When will you fix it?

I don’t like how they handle it. =(
But thanks anyway…

Does anyone know a EU world where the karka queen event is working?

I opened a new bug thread in the bug forum. I couldn’t find that they have announced any solution to that massive problem yet.
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Will-you-fix-the-bugged-karka-queen-event/first#post2188998

Hey,

as many other players I’ve reported that the karka queen event is bugged on my world. On Drakkar-Lake[EU] it is bugged since Friday. (You cannot burn the nests in the fourth settlement.)
I thought after the weekend you would give a statement on that issue, BUT as the 11th is approaching I couldn’t find anything and I need to know if you will fix it before the living story in southsun cove ends.

I was not able to do that event during the living story (as we wanted to do it on the weekend we had PLENTY of time left!). I read the boss will stay on that map, but will there be a difference? Will the reward be changed? Will the magic find boost be removed, so the kills of the boss adds will be worse than before?
What about the achievement “crazed karka queen killer”? Will we still be able to get it?

And even if you do not fix the bug “in time” (before the living story ends), when will you fix it?

I think there are/ will be a lot of unhappy players.. :-(

To get the bonus chest you must be lvl 40 and above.

You should be able to receive the regular boss chest, when
- you do not camp your character there
- you camp your character there, but you do the pre events or any other event in between
- you switch to another map and do other things in between
- you take another character to that boss that hasn’t killed him before (or at least done something in between)

What will mostly just give you the golden medal, but no boss chest, is to park your character there and kill the boss twice in a row without doing anything in between.

And of course you can only get the bonus chest once per account per day and the boss chests once per character per day.

Right now it’s not bugged anymore.

They told us it is bugged. ^^

Until they make another statement I have to believe they just broke it unintentionally.

Too important to let it leave the first page.

Still bugged and no communication. That’s unacceptable!

Drakkar-Lake experiences that same bug, too.

Still bugged on Drakkar-Lake[DE], too.

On Drakkar-Lake[DE] the ogre wars seems to be bugged.
It says (since several hours):
“Charr and Vanguard forces are assaulting Foulbear Kraal and its leaders.”
But the following event does not trigger. There is nothing we can do to get it started.
Foulbear is not seen anywhere (his door is closed).

Please fix it or restart servers. ^^

So everyone with a torch should be able to do that, too? :p

Please fix it on Drakkar-Lake[DE]
:-(

Hey Anet!

Look at my mesmer, see her sad eyes and tell her what’s going on! Promise her to fix her!
Maybe you don’t care for the players, but can you be that cruel to one of your professions, too?
You hurt her and she is suffering…

Help her! Do it!

<3

Is Anet telling me I shall not use illusions as a mesmer or even better I shall not play my mesmer?

First the berserker is behaving very badly and no fix in months (and it is an issue since mid November 2012!), but then the bouncing thing appears which affects us in a not-so-nice way. And to top it off sometimes our illusion do nothing, just stand there and wait until they are killed.

Huh? Anet help me out on this part.. what do you want us mesmers to do?

Oh, lol?

If someone looks into something for too long, at some point (s)he will forget what (s)he was looking for.

Hmm, they could include a “special ticket” in each box opened and after collecting 25 (50, 100, or which amount would be adequate) you could turn these tickets into a “real ticket”.
That would be fair system… and maybe more people would spend gems on them. ^^

And did he get a refund? =)

Has anyone from anet confirmed this 1 in 50 chance?
If not the people you are speaking of were just VERY lucky.
Sorry. :-(

My tin foil hat says me the 200% buff was an experiment for them to see how mf works and they will have a look at the data that is provided after a while to figure it out. (But that’s another topic.. ^^)

They want you to buy lots of crates (not just 50) with gems.. maybe with 500 crates, you will be lucky.. ^^

You know.. having a chance.. that doesn’t mean anything..

EDIT: I would say it is working as intended, all the things they had before worked the same way, it is really, really, really rare to get a skin…
(I don’t like their system, but it seems they do. -.-)

Why do they still allow that any killed foe gives loot?

And we have to keep in mind that berserker has been an issue before.. it is not that it is the first time he is behaving badly….
Zerkie is an issue since Mid November 2012!!!!!

Yeah, he really should contact support.
They have refunded another ascended item several times before to other players (that have made the same mistake).
Good luck! :-)

Here is another bug:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/iZerker-BUG-at-bloomhunger/first#post2132702

At jormag I summoned my iWarden which should have attacked the ice shield. However, it was very lazy and stood inactive somewhere behind me (doing nothing) until I replaced it with another one..

I think we have the bad picture…

Thanks for the link! That’s fun!

I like both suggestions!

I would love to have a reliable non-combat swiftness! Thanks.

You can also preview all dyes from the TP. That way you will see exactly which dye would suit you.

me wearing a tin foil hat
Loot has been reduced everywhere to get more players into southsun cove where everything is “normal”.

You can preview all the dyes from the TP and see what yellow you would like on your certain armor.

not even 1 ecto? O.o

And did you found your kitten again? =)

You might read more about the bug (?) in that thread here:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Game-Update-Notes-28-05-2013/first#post2107639

Hopefully we will get an answer soon. (They have been replying to a necro bug very quick: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/New-Patch-Bugged-Staff-Mastery/first#post2108659)

And MAYBE we will also receive an update on our beloved berserker. :-)

That would be the icing on the cake!

Is it a bug or an intended nerf?

:-(
