Guild Wars 2

“I swear I’m one of you! My leaves just happen to be a bit flesh-colored.”

Better condition removal, please? All we have is Healing Spring for active condition removal, then Signet of Renewal and a trait or two for passive condition removal, which isn’t as good.

Better stunbreakers would be nice too.

Um…explain?

Blah 15 characters.

Better to not waste time fighting Liadri. Not worth the effort.

Artificial difficulty.

I think the topic speaks for itself, but I’ll try my best.

“You’ve been a bad boy.”

“But I didn’t do anything! And how are you taller than me in this cut-scene?”

I want this pet. Why can’t I get this pet?

I hope Scarlet left another bomb to blow up the entire pavilion and the gauntlet with it.

We find out Anise cast the Rytlock illusion to mess with Logan a bit. He wants the entire pavillion shut down, but the countess and queen say no to that, so he begins a useless investigation and doubles the number of Seraph patrols in the city (allegedly).

Oh, and Rox and Braham are sticking around, but who cares?

Anywho, the watchknight’s out of control. Go figure. And the Aetherblades are back. Time to beat them up. But what’s this, a suspicious figure?

So, Logan fights the watchknight, demonstrating his ability to warp behind the enemy with Flashing Blade. But then…

A wild Rytlock appears! And it might not be wearing pants!

Queen Jennah’s celebrating her 10th year as ruler.

Watchknights, complete with steel high heels and clockwork buttocks.

A giant arena built into the Great Collapse.

And Rox and Braham are here. For some reason.

Is there even a Mini Caithe at this point? I think all the others except Snaff and Garm are minis now.

Here’s a rich copper vein. While it does look distinct form the regular nodes, there isn’t a sparkle like the rich iron veins. :/

At best, they could allow you to turn into that creature for costume brawls. (Provided the creature in question is reasonably sized compared to you.) While it would be neat for them to be useful in battle or be combat transformations, that might be going too far.

“Don’t worry. We’ll meet again, some day.”

And then we never see him again, never mention it ever again, or ever try to find the tree he came from. For all we know, he might have died shortly afterwards. Seriously, why isn’t there a Living Sto—no, an expansion planned for this? The idea of other “Pale Trees” with other sylvari was neat, and then we never explore it again.

This would be the best of the second set of sylvari storylines in my opinion, but the fact that it is never followed up at all or brought up again leads me to prefer the “Act with wisdom” story missions, even though “Where life goes, so should you” is the teaching I like the most.

Sadly, that’s the downfall of the fight in the end. While the music and everything else makes it feel epic, considering all we had to fight just to reach this thing just makes him seem like a pushover.

This would be nice to have. I use dungeon armor and karma/WvW gear because they won’t appear in a sell list at all. The buyback option for the merchant somewhat mitigates this problem if you realize it soon enough, but I’d want a way to lock items so they don’t get sold/salvaged/destroyed by accident.

You can only represent one guild at a time anyway. Sorry, but more is better. There’s a limit already in place. (5 guilds at a time, I think?) Reducing it to one would just annoy many people, I think.

I agree. These should be just account bound. Soulbinding should really just be removed all together. It’s a shame since these tools are some of the few things worth getting from the Gem Store, (even with the current price and soulbinding) and they discourage you from using any characters that don’t have them.

This. I wish the Living Story would actually add more new things and have us discovering new lore, or expanding upon the old lore. There is so much potential.. But so far, it just isn’t doing much.

Yeah, I decided to stop pointing out the Orr ones for now because apparently most of them get beaten now that they give the loot boxes.

What? Um, where’s the source for this “you need 80 people to beat Tequatl” statement?

I guess I can understand this question, even though just being able to change the color would be enough.. Since most of us wear armor anyway most of the time, it doesn’t concern me that much. Seeing as they didn’t give us swimsuits back at the Secret of Southsun Living Story, I think this won’t happen for a long time to come, if at all.

Makes sense. Still, I just wish all the rich veins had that neat sparkle.

Eh? I play on the lowest settings already, I think. I’m referring to the nearly invisible hammer my character is holding. And it rarely happens.

It’s not like the asura neck thing, or the eyes turning red when entering/leaving water to quickly. It’s just another neat little thing in this game, though unintended, which interests me. I almost wish I knew how it happens, since it makes my weapons look neater, kind of like the Mist weapons without the purple glow.

And even on the lowest settings, this game is still good to look at.

But enough of that. Anyone else have a translucent equipment moment?

It’s another little thing I’ve noticed every now and then, but I don’t know what triggers it. Rarely, a weapon I’m holding or my back item will turn translucent for a moment. Probably just a little bug that doesn’t hurt anything, but it’s kind of neat.

So is platinum ore, for platinum and darksteel. While those tiers are for separate crafting disciplines, it still would benefit from there being more as well. Same with copper ore, for copper and bronze, although copper’s everywhere.

Um..why? Why would they need to do that?

I know.. Hmm, what things do you consider to be more important right now? They probably are worth doing something about. Good idea on the compilation thread.

Still, I do wish all the rich veins either all had the sparkles or not at all. I’m still leaning towards them all having the little sparkle animation, because it makes you feel more special for reaching them..

“So shiny! It’s like it wants me to take all its ore!”

Hmm. What’s the more important stuff right now? That should obviously come first if it’s more important, but sometimes I just wish that one of their development teams might notice these little things already in the game and improve upon them. Meanwhile, the Living Story team gets 4 teams for it, or so I’ve heard…

No, no! This is not a complaint thread! Please don’t let it become that!

A little thing I’ve noticed when going to Rich Iron Veins is that in addition to looking more metal-y than regular ore nodes, they have little sparkles around them that the rich veins for other nodes don’t seem to have.

On top of that, while the other rich veins give you just 10 of the ore, (except orichalcum) the iron ones have a chance of giving you up to 15-17 of it. I wonder if it was intended, and why just for iron rich veins and not the others. It’d be neat if they all had the little sparkles too, and had chance to give more than 10 as well.

Found another one in Snowden Drifts, not sure if he gets hunted much. To be fair, it is a Lv15-25 zone..

It worked, this time.. I’m not sure if it just worked itself out or if they got it for sure, but I will says thanks to them regardless.

Admittedly, they were neat-looking enemies.

Aww, no one thinks it’s a little funny? This isn’t meant to be a complaint thread, just a silly little thing I noticed in the Personal Story when you bring someone else along…

I saw that too, well after I finished the Personal Story, except the Risen didn’t say anything when I got to it. The event just popped up and I beat it. Though, there is a boss you fight in Lion’s Arch right after….that story mission..that also says something similar.

True, but these fights rarely happen and there is no way to break it up (they still count as friendly to you, and so you can’t make them stop or anything) There doesn’t seem to be any specific trigger for it, they’ll just start fighting all of a sudden, and it doesn’t stop until one dies. So, it seems to be either a bug or just another little thing that’s different from the norm, because you can really affect it.

I have the same problem. There’s a thread in Tech Support about it too. They’re looking into it, or so it seems.

Well, glad to see I wasn’t alone on this. Somewhat. It’s still irritating regardless. I wanted to make a new character and I cannot. Sigh.

On another note, trying to go to support leads me to a warning message saying that Firefox can’t actually tell if the connection is secure, and that someone could be trying to impersonate the support site. Doesn’t happen on the forums at all. Anyone else seen that too?

I’m not sure what triggers it, but friendly NPCs within the camp will just start fighting each other randomly. I’ve seen Vigil and Whisper members fight, Whisper agents attacking Priory researchers (who sometimes stay in out of combat mode and just ignore the hits), and even the marmox gets in on it sometimes.

This is the third time we’ve disguised ourselves, by the way.

Snaff Savants have a built in “suspect” detector? Interesting.

Heh, that is true.

Oh, just to be clear, this isn’t a complaint thread or anything, just one little thing I noticed that was different from before. Sometimes it’s nice to have threads about the little things too.. or so I think, anyways.

They aren’t even trying now.

“Why would you think I’m an Inquest spy?”

“Because you’re holding your weapons out like a moron.”

“You can’t comprehend my po—-arugh!”

Here’s another thread that might be helpful here:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/lore/On-the-Sixth-Elder-Dragon-and-its-corruption/first

In this thread the poster brings up the “Pale Tree = Dragon Champion” theory and gives good reasons for why they don’t believe it to be true.

Well…having to get separate recipes with Laurels already sounds bad. More time gating. The rest of the stuff seems okay..but, I’m gonna wait and see before I say more. I just hope it doesn’t become grindy.

I’m not so sure. :/

I still don’t understand the idea that hard equals fun for some. I play for fun, not frustration. So I’ll stay away.

Gabby pretty much said it better than me. Zhaitan didn’t just take it easy after getting an entire continent to play with, he actively sent out the Risen to attack areas, kill more people, and spread his influence through his corrupted undead, attacking Lion’s Arch and the Orders as specific targets.

Jormag has also done the same somewhat before GW2, when he drove the norn from their original home in the Shiverpeaks, even killing the Spirit of Owl when she fought him. He seems to have taken a break for now, but the Sons of Svanir have taken it upon themselves to convert and kill more, spreading Jormag’s influence further.

When Kralkatorrik awoke, the first thing he did was go off to kill Glint. Granted, she was a former minion and a dragon herself, but Kralkatorrik sought to kill her nonetheless, not just staying where he was at when he awoke. Since then, we’ve seen nothing of him, the map implying that now he’s taking a break in the Crystal Desert…but who knows?

I don’t think the Zepyrites are reliable sources of information on the dragons’ behavior.
