Use/Hotkey “Nearest Target/Enemy” or whatever its called.

Prob is, that’s what i"m using.

never trust rabbits

Lol I remember so many years ago following that rabbit. Same ending resulted.

It could be that these skills were changed somehow either in appearance or skill traits duration etc. Sometimes in games the skills will be removed from skill bars if they had any change at all. Altho, this is the first time I’ve seen this happen in GW2. Could be just a bug. Just re-equip the skill.

2 Ettin directly in front of me by about 100 units. My character targets an ambient rabbit out of range about 1600 units away.
Nuff said.

Well thats totally stupid why have it as one of the 18 in the list then?

So finishing up the acheevos for HoT act 1 and i just got finished doing torn from the sky and got the Conservation of Resources and Sylvari Solidarity completed but only got it counted toward 1 of the 10 Act 1 mastery completion. I had 12 before I started and when finished only had 13. Whats the deal? Neither the Sylvari Solidarity or the Conservation of Resources were completed before this.

If you research the BL chest from the recent updates, you’ll find that the first slot is typically a booster. So instead of a booster, you’re getting a ToT bag.

You can kitten whether or not that’s a good trade… but you weren’t going to get a super rare drop in that slot. In other words, you’re not losing out on anything except a random booster.

I’d rather have boosters then tot bags. at least the boosters were useful.

I’m pretty sure anet has already thought about this and planned for it before even the release of the game. There are many things that are just lieing dormant in the gw2 game files. We will probably see the tengu as playable race when we finally get to enter the land of the wind or w/e its called on the other side of caledon.

Yeah Anet when are you going to stop jipping us on one of the slots for the black lion chest? Get rid of the trick or treat bag and quit jipping us. Nobody wants to spend money for keys only to get candy corn or halloween tonics.

Pshh you try farming hardened leather squares and see how far you get with them. youll have 5 stacks of the thick leather before you get 50 hardened.

Prices are so high for leather right now that I have to create a go fund me page just to pay for the leather. TY anet.

yeah that does look really similar.

Is there currently any armor in GW2 that would match the armor that jora wore in GW1?

Currently the Runes of Divinity and Traveler (I"m not sure of other buff bonus runes) state that they give a bonus percentage to ALL stats. Yet they do not give bonus percentages to all stats. I.e. Expertise, Concentration, and Agony resistance are not affected by these runes and should be properly noted on the rune as such.

Lmao you should’ve know the second you created this thread that all the druid users would come out the woodwork to troll you and talk down to you cuz they’re afraid of getting nerfed and once again not having the feeling of skill.

Good luck with this. WvWer’s have been asking for balance since launch and they just recently made this game “buy HoT for the elite specs = win” so that those players that don’t have the skills or are just too lazy to learn this game can finally win. And they are trying to attract players that want things easy. So no chance on balance for a very long time if ever.

As I like playing reaper the most out of all my characters I sometimes like using minions but they are so ugly. They are disgusting to look at. This isn’t just my sentiment, this is expressed by almost every necro I’ve talked to that uses minions.
So if there could be skins for the minions so they don’t look so disgusting like little devils or something. It won’t change anything within the game or give an advantage cuz minions are minions.
And if you do decide to implement a different look to minions please don’t put the skins on the gem store.

drunkenpilot.9837:

Woah! I never knew this was a thing. Haha! I’m way too entertained by that video, thanks for sharing.

Similarly, during Super Adventure Box I noticed that a few of the mobs in SAB (the angry bears with AoE attacks in W2Z1, for example) were capable of damaging your minis. I used the Princess Miya mini for awhile and tried getting them to slay her but it never worked.

Yeah I didn’t realize this could happen until today. Minis aren’t supposed to be able to interact with the world but I guess that excludes lava.

That’s right, I killed my Mini Professor Mew. Do you want to kill your mini? Watch this video and find out how. R.I.P. Minis.
Death To Minis!!

And now my personal story isnt updating. fml

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Did you check your Wallet? They automatically are deposited there.

Yes this is my third account. It’s the first place I looked.

As the title suggests, I am not receiving any proof of heroics when ranking up in WvW. I’ve ranked up 5 times and still haven’t received any.
After the first 4 times I went and did the first part of the LS Season 3 I think where Maguuma Wastes is unlocked and went back to wvw and still not receiving any proof of heroics.

ErebusVindictus.6514:

I’m not asking for a buff to the heal (the heal is amazing) but the 1 & 1/4 sec cast time feels entirely too long and gets interrupted far too often.
Maybe reduce it to 1 second? I feel that would help a lot in terms of not getting interrupted.
But maybe I’m just doing something wrong, if I am, please do tell me, I’m open to just about any suggestions.

I’ve brought up the cast time of consume conditions exactly 3 previous times and nothing has been changed. Yes it seems like an awful long cast cuz it is esp in combat. I’ve counted it multiple times in combat and its at 3 seconds instead of 1 1/4. And that’s without chill or anything. Anet still hasn’t bothered doing anything about it so don’t keep your hopes up. Necro has been plagued with bugs and such since launch and its taken them 3 years just to fix the very first bugs people reported.

I don’t see why it should be restricted if the account is bought and paid for. I understand the access to guild banks but to use the trading post is nothing that should be restricted.

I bought a heart of thorns account and my account is verified i have the mini dragon to prove it. But yet I try to sell something on the trading post and it says my account requires validation and will unlock in 4 days. WTF?

You’re not supposed to put these here. Youre supposed to send to exploits@arena.net.

Genavelle.9516:

So apparently there’s this bug in the WvW borderlands where the Inner Watergate of Garrison (that’s the southern gate by the water) doesn’t upgrade with the rest of the keep. So if you order reinforced gates or fortified gates, this gate does not receive those upgrades, leaving it as a normal, weak gate that is easier to kill than the rest of the gates.

It has been this way since launch and anet hasnt ever bothered doing anything about it so the ppt blobs can get easy access. You can bring this up for the next 10 yrs without change. 4 yrs and still it hasn’t been addressed.

Again Anet is awarding whoever has the bigger blob. Not awarding any kind of skilled groups or smaller servers or anything. This is only going to encourage more blobbing for the ppt and more pvd. More server stacking etc.
If Anet wanted the player base to move from being skilled to mindless drone 111111 spamming then they are well on the way of permanently achieving that goal as all the skilled players have already left the game and more are being pushed out.

While in WvW I noticed that Grasping Darkness is able to pull enemies while they are standing on walls or other obstacles they are standing on. After realizing this I attempted to pull twice more at different times and one time pulled the enemy off the wall, the other time the enemy stayed on the wall but was knocked down.
I’m pretty sure this skill isn’t supposed to be able to pull thru walls as per the “no line of sight”.

Marge.4035:

/r/TrahearneJokes/ somehow made its way to the forums?

I’ve been saying this forever. Put it on the forums here a while back and on reddit so if somebody else posted it then they stole it from me.
EDIT: I originally started saying this cuz I was in a wvw guild that was all Charr and a few furries in it and they didn’t like it when I said it and the thread will get furries and charr lovers to respond negatively but that adds to the fun of it.

It has changed but that rune is a waste. Life steal in this game is pretty weak. I’ve tried multiple upon multiple different builds on the one class that has as its core life steal, necro, and as of yet every build is very very weak.
If life steal were changed to take more life like maybe 50 at a time instead of the base 36 (depending on skill used) then life steal would be useful. So just raise the life steal about 10-15% more than what it is and it would be useful.

A: Spay or neuter your charr.

Aren’t mesmers already pretty broken without having to make them even more broken? nobody uses the clones for anything anyway but to spam shatters after all thats all mesmers do is spam shatters.

I just witnessed a ranger with 25 stacks of Bloodlust and 25 stacks of Celerity. I am assuming this is a bug cuz there would be no way a player would be exploiting anything right?
Anyway, it’s a bug that should probably be corrected. Don’t know if this is with certain sigils but it’s just what I observed.

Logged onto my alt account and my exotic armor says its bound to another player. Needless to say it isn’t. The armor belongs to this character and now i cannot equip it. I am not sure if this is happening with legendary, ascended or rare or masterwork or fine armor as I only have exotic on this account. Please fix so I can equip the armor on my characters.

Veryl.7861:

hah… Yeah.

I guess people are ignoring me then. >_>
So basicly I wish I could have fun while farming.
I take back what I said about fashion. But in the end-game. if you have your ascended etc.

I’m glad there are still people here that know how to play this. and honestly. I feel like a nub xD.

#“Fair-discrimination” is it new SJW buzzword? # No idea, hope not.

If you want devs to read anything post it on the reddit page. But I warn you, no matter where you post anything that goes against anything anet does you’re going to get anet white-knights that lurk the forums and reddit 24/7 that will insult you and shoot down anything you say cuz they think they are gods gift to anet.
And as far as everyone saying that the op post was incoherent, I understood everything op was saying so its obv you are all m0r0ns for not being able to understand.
and to say it was so incoherent but you still felt the need to comment on what the op said. Talk about being a hyp0crite

perseco.8321:

Try SweetFX? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzOvy6uTGcg

Yeah i’ve used that and altho its good, it’s not what i’m looking for. I’m talking vibrant colors. Kind of like say….wildstar is a good example. It’s colorful and vibrant. But I don’t really like the cartoony look.
I’m talking about having colors in structures instead of just brown and gray and have colors int eh trees and flora. There are some flora around but its not much.

DemonPriest.3418:

hy, i have a problem, before Hot i used to get allot of them, but since i got Hot i just cant find any more empyreal ftagments…got 3hours of silverwastes and VD and open allot of chests but no fragments…i dont think my rng is so bad…and i dont do pvp…

lol you obv don’t know about the empyreal fragment farms. I have a whole list of vids on where to get them on my youtube channel. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLJ6gx5z7miYPW3EtLJJnidA6CmLSs2AF
And if those don’t do it for you there are probably thousands of different vids on youtube on empyreal fragment gathering.

The biggest problem is that players coming from different games are trying to play gw2 like those other games. They want gw2 to be like them other games. GW2 and GW was successful not only cuz of the pay once to play but also cuz it was different then them other games.
I think tiers would be a good idea. There are some that like things hard and difficult and like to die and die and die and die and they think that kind of grind is fun. For the rest of gw2 they’d rather just get it done and over with and move on. Even gw had a normal mode and hard mode.

I disagree. Tiers are the problem to begin with. Players need to adapt to the game rather than constantly having the game adapt to them.

Players have paid for this game. It is the paying players that are keeping anet afloat. Anet should cater to the players and not the players catering to anet. If you are a robot you’re okay with adapting to anet. When you pay for a product you expect certain things with that product. Why would anybody pay for anything only to be told they had to do what the manufacturer wanted and can’t say anything against it. It wouldn’t be successful.

Guild Wars 2 altho beautiful is really drab and dark. A lot of things are either brown, gray or dark green. GW2 needs more color, needs to be livened up.

I’d like to make a suggestion to add the daily and weekly bounties like they had in GW1. And please don’t make them a group event. Let them be a solo thing. That was fun to do in GW1 and it will give us something else to do in gw2 as “end game” content.

KILL ALL CHARR
THEY CAN’T BE TRUSTED
REMEMBER THE SEARING…NEVER FORGET

Plus we need to stop the spread of mange and fleas.

So having to do each living story 3 or 4 times in order to get all the achievements and hence the mastery point isn’t repetitive? Seems like a lot of you like them korean grindfests and think that this isn’t grind here.
Having to do and redo bosses isn’t grind? Having to keep doing fractals isn’t grind?
I’m sitting with full exp bars on all the available masteries but still earning exp is just a waste of time. But there’s no grind there at all is there? Too many fanbois and whiteknights here to accomplish anything.

So in order to get all the mastery points for central tyria you have to grind out the living story for them. This is ridiculous. It was anet’s own (Colin) statement that grinding would not be needed for gw2 and yet here we are grinding out everything. There needs to be more options for mastery points for central tyria instead of having to grind out the living story achievements. And most of them undoable solo and having to redo and redo them until they are perfect.
So many things like this making people leave the game. From the grinding to the state of wvw, the condi meta and unbalance. I’m surprised there are even players left in the game.

Thank you for listening to the community and getting community feed back. But literally everything you guys want to implement will still only help the blobby servers. Maybe find ways to minimize or discourage groups of more than 20-25.
And maybe skill balance should be the major thing worked on. Seriously, when a non glassy scrapper can take out a player wearing the pvt armor and stuff in 3 hits there is something majorly wrong there. You essentially made this game p2w with having the elites overpowered compared to the non elite specs. Skill balance is one of the major reasons why you are losing players in hordes to other games. Maybe that should be the priority.

Nocturnal Lunacy.8563:

Most players will leave duelers alone but there are always the kittens.

The same can be said when those duelers that you left alone stop dueling and jump you later on with 5 of their buddies..

I usually leave everyone that seems to be in a fair fight alone but I never get the same back ever. I honestly do not know why I do it but to me its more of a respect kind of thing. I’ve pasted duelers that were dueling and they stopped dueling to jump me.

I don’t even kill afkers.. If I hit someone and they just stand there I move on.. I want a good fight not an easy kill yet most see me and jump me instead of giving me a good fight lol

as i said there are always the a holes. most duelers from what i’ve seen don’t do that unless they are attacked. but maybe that’s just the servers? but it’s also some guilds are just like that too. some guilds are just trolls and salty about god knows what and will try to ruin anything and everything for a certain server. its sad but when you get f2p players and tweens playing this game that kind of thing happens.

Most players will leave duelers alone but there are always the kittens.

gloflop.3510:

Nocturnal Lunacy.8563:

That being said…. The skill lag is awful. And well I get irritated when I die cuz skills 6-0 will not activate and hence the tweet spam.

There are three possible explanations for skill-lags. Either your computer/internet is too slow, the connection to the server somewhere in between is too slow or the server is not appropriate/too slow/bad connection. I personally rarely experience skill-lags. I live in an area with good internet connection. An gw2-update loads with 5 MB easily. I dont know your equipment/connection. However, could you check whether that was the problem for the lags?

Nocturnal Lunacy.8563:

I’m sure anet has already heard enuf time about the 2 hr queues.

Both (Short queues and many players on the maps) is sadly not possible.

The issue is server side. It’s always been like that with skill lag except for those that play on potatoes. My ping is average around 20-30. And I don’t lag except for when in fights with big groups and the server gets bottlenecked from all the 11111111111111111111111111111111 spamming. FPS is around 80 or so average but in these fights it drops to 20. The issue is server side not client side.

Chaba.5410:

I’ll LOL if it is the hackers.

https://dviw3bl0enbyw.cloudfront.net/uploads/forum_attachment/file/223714/tumblr_nl6ph5UUHt1u9zrhbo1_1280.jpg

Three DPS builds can burn down a camp quite fast. 20 seconds for a tower sounds kind of wrong though.

LMAO

JDjitsu.7895:

If a camp or tower is getting taken in literally 15-20 sec counting the capture ring, that’s not legit. Is the whole BL being taken in about 10min? If so I’d say the same hackers from the same tier banned 2-3 times from the last couple months leveled new f2p accts.

The towers aren’t flipping that fast. The prob with the towers is that the swords that indicate that its being attacked aren’t showing up and the “repel the enemy attackers” event isn’t popping. It was on eb. and they got klovan and almost had aldon’s. aldon’s was t3. but luckily somebody was runnign by aldon’s and saw them and they got killed haven’t seen them HoD since they were killed at Aldon’s. I don’t think these are hacks more that they are exploited bugs nobody knows about.
