Guild Wars 2

Yikes…they should really remove that sound effect too. Equipping said visage gives this annoying loud noise.

Hello,
Sorry for my dumb question, but I want ask,
1. How many different legendary weapons can craft in one account?
2. Do I need create more characters and explore all world for Gift of Exploration?
Thank you for answers

Gen 1 legendary require GoE, however gen 2 do not, so you can craft 2 legendaries per character, otherwise gotta make a new one and explore map again for the gift. Please note gifts are account bound, so you can transfer them to your main or what have you.

Am I right that with one account can craft all legendary weapons?

Why not? just give him all the gifts from your other characters and you can craft em all.

Fine as is right now

Please explain how these are fine.

-the OVERWHELMING number of passives on every class
-the lack of build diversity
-elementalist pretty much getting deleted from PvP as it has no other build options
-condi spam faceroll chronomancer
-Reapers that can put insane condi damage while still being a tanky hp pool.
-passive tank bruiser scrapper that is almost unkillable 1v1 (assuming the scrapper isnt completely brain dead)
-Bristleback and Smokescale being the only used ranger pets
-perma evade condi thief
-condi warrior with insane condi damage and passives and regen for days
-dps DH trapper with heals and blocks like a bunker
-Revenants with evades and blocks on almost everything

But nope! PvP is fine. (sarcasm)

Spoken like someone who never touched Rev, as a rev we got nerfed into the ground, and now we are bugged galore.

As for ele, try experimenting a LITTLE, don;t just auto go to metabattle, try new things, from what i seen ele is still in a ok spot, just not god mode anymore.

Revs are in a great spot (yeah bugs suck). They are top tier atm.

Everyone keeps saying “oh just keep experimenting I’m sure ele are fine” how long till you guys finally understand that we’ve been experimenting this entire time most of us never wanted to be a kittening bunker heal bot. We’ve been experimenting for a season now. But we got nerfed across the board what build that wasn’t viable last season would become viable with flat nerfs everywhere??

And your right ele is an okay spot but everyone else is at demi-god or God tier level in comparison…

Hue, yes great spot, Apply any condis on revs and they melt in seconds, “but run mallyx” yeah sure a few seconds of resistance does not do much with the constant condis being thrown around.

I guess its a thing where we think our respective classes are weak, you think ele is weak but rev is in a “great” spot and i think the other way around, ele may not be in a “great spot” but neither is rev.

Bloodstones been around BEFORE red lyrium though. However the reward chest from unbound guardian looks awfully like the random red lyrium chests in dragon age inquisition..

Kreejaffa.3682:

Their answer to this is that it takes too much time to make armors. Outfits are only a fraction of the time, so they focus on those, and armors will only be released with expansions from what I have gathered.

But think of the profits, i know for a fact WAY more people will buy armor skins, if they invest the time to make outfits into skins more people will buy said skins. Sure people buy outfits, but that number will increase if only they were skins.

Karmapolice.4193:

Yeah, this gets said a lot, but it needs to be constantly repeated to ANet. Although, I don’t think they’ll ever stop with outfits.
I would have bought so many outfits if they were armors, but because I can’t just use their individual pieces, I haven’t.
I’ve bought two outfits, and honestly, I regret it. Meanwhile I still use my Kryta and Aetherblade and Viper armor pieces quite often.
At the very least, I’d like to be able to hide outfit gloves, shoulders and boots.
Or maybe, if the chest and leggings need to be kept together, allow us to swap head, glove, shoulders and boots between outfits and use armor pieces in those slots too.

Same here lol

Skin looks lovely, but is it possible to make this like the halo/horns? as in able to use it with our currently equipped headpiece? so we can wear a helm and have the sexy glow? i mean its possible, we see npcs in bloodstone fen have this affect. As for the “the effect will go through some of the helmet thing”, that’s fine, it still looks cool on some of the white mantle in bloodstone fen. Thank you have a good day.

Sometimes when using unrelenting assault the camera gets stick to where i was prior to using the skill, way to fix this is to use fridge blitz.

Is it possible to give a infusion that gives the glowy eye effect that the npcs with Bloodstone Crazed have? now i realize there’s a red eye helmet skin but for these npcs the effect goes through the helmet, id dig that.

It used to be alot more, but it was lowered, so its good now.

Not that i disagree with this post, i support that a blob should not be unstoppable unless meeting another equally large if not larger blob, question is how do you break that? What i do strongly disagree with is your rev statement…my friend..are you going to ignore mesmers which are beyond broken and even daredevils? I know i know you said certain classes..but still i am annoyed by the fact people jumping on rev, which is slowly becoming what warrior was pre last seasonal patch, nerfed into the ground. and completely overlook mesmers which as you stated…completely broken as kitten.

Dhemize.8649:

Wagon got separated.

splain.

What happened? lately it looks like TC’s population has bloated and BG has been vastly underpopulated..considering how it used to be anyways.

Andraus.3874:

I am sure you are getting confused. Like others said, they added an ability to salvage gift of fortune because it is not needed for the new legendaries. People had assumed it would be needed and crafted them ahead of time before HoT was released. This obviously led to some upset as you still need 200 of each t6 matterial for the new legendaries; just not the gift of fortune.

So they added a salvage ability so people who crafted the gift of fortune could get their matts back for the new legendary gifts.

And how do you salvage it? The gift i mean, because i checked wiki and doesnt say anything.

Just a flesh wound.3589:

The thing is, it doesn’t make sense. Once you made and equipped a Legendary then you’ve got the skin forever in your wardrobe. You could salvage it, get all the gifts back and make a second, different legendary for a much reduced cost by reusing the gifts. Rinse and repeat for as many times as you like.

Very true, but the rng on pres are quite silly. its the hardest bit to get on a legendary.

Not if you buy it, there’s no RNG.

You could make a legendary, salvage it to get the skin and the gifts back. Buy a second precursor, use the gifts to make it again and sell it to recoup all or most of your cost of the first.

Assuming you have the money yeah.

Just wish there was a dev responses confirming or denying this, this meaning if they plan to add this still, because i remember they wanted to add something like this.

RoseofGilead.8907:

As far as I know, the Gift of Fortune is the only Gift that can be salvaged to get back all of its components. And as far as I know, it’s still salvageable.

No i mean legendaries have no salvage option i clicked on all the salvage kits i got it will not let me salvage my legendary.

Just a flesh wound.3589:

You mean the weapon? Did they ever actually say that or did they say that certain gifts could be salvaged for their component parts?

I saw on reddit last post 3 months ago someone did, provided pictures, had 161 or so upvotes.

I saw that it is was possible to salvage them for the gifts, this was about three months ago or so, but no longer possible now, what changed that? just curious.

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Omega Zoa.3859:

So my friend who has about 1.5k AP starts his own party, titled “all welcome” for a level 13 fract and is constantly getting kicked out for from his own groups that he created due to the fact of his AP score…this is unnacceptable..i do not know how this can be fixed but this is not ok. getting kicked from a level 13 fract LEVEL 13! before you say “he should do it with friends and or with a guild” what if this was another player who has no friends or a does not wish to be in a guild…is he just..outcasted from group content just because of some AP score?

How does one example of a bunch of jerks kicking someone for no apparent reason translate into “elitism, a growing concern”? PUGs are human beings and some of them will be rude, crude, and socially unacceptable (depending, of course, on your idea of society).

If you can document that everyone with <2k AP is getting kicked from every party in which 3+ people have 12k+ AP (or even a plurality of such examples), then by all means: share with ANet your evidence.

Otherwise, just chalk it up to PUGs behaving badly.

He complained it happened three times prior to me coming to se for myself.

Nokaru.7831:

Was he level 80?

Lol of course he was 80.

fishball.7204:

Just sounds like you met some bad people, I’ve seen sub 3k AP players not kicked from mid-tier/higher-tier fracs.

sort of a big leap from 1.5k to 3k mate. we ran into some like AP people…2k…..2.3k..and they didnt kick.

Leezy.4567:

….And the rest of the story? I highly doubt it’s this simple as making his own squad and getting kicked from it at the start of the fractal.

Thats pretty much it mate. actually tagged along him and people started voting for kick, they had about 20k…17k AP

So my friend who has about 1.5k AP starts his own party, titled “all welcome” for a level 13 fract and is constantly getting kicked out for from his own groups that he created due to the fact of his AP score…this is unnacceptable..i do not know how this can be fixed but this is not ok. getting kicked from a level 13 fract LEVEL 13! before you say “he should do it with friends and or with a guild” what if this was another player who has no friends or a does not wish to be in a guild…is he just..outcasted from group content just because of some AP score?

Lol this thread turned into a “nerf the rev” yes nerf it into the ground like the warrior and lets completely ignore the mesmers who pretty much controlled pvp since forever, and the expac only boosted that fact.

And yes the ley line hub is a poi in dry tops. I mean it would be fun to ride that sick wave of ley energy yo. And i suppose that makes sense for the knock off the edge on the mobs.

Go to your character select, bottom left corner theres a button that says servers, wala.

So i been exploring this game since release and a couple things and what i consider small but would improve the game..

-NPCs who are underwear actually start wearing waterbreathing masks..This is small but it really breaks my immersion..how do they breath? i mean really.

-Gliding in the Ley Line Hub, i mean i have ley line gliding..why can’t i glide on it..?

-Now..this is a major one and is not quality of life but the variety of destroyers like in gw1..the ones in gw2 are….lazy..i am sure we will see variety return in the expac that involves them but still..

-Possibly allow us to knock off generic mobs off ledges etc and make them suffer fall damage, this does not include event mobs or champions/elites/vets, would be funny to knock off a enemy off a high cliff and just see them die.

-Allow us the players to have a /talk emote..i mean npcs have them, why not us?

Now this is what comes to me at the top of my head…please feel free to add yours to the list avoid things like balance or anything major..i know the destroyer thing is major but it always bothered me the cool destroyers we meet in gw1 are not here.

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Can’t one basically do that with Nicknames?

There would probably be the same character limit with any ‘note’ implementation.

Yes that will also work perfectly, i just need something so i can remember people who have 15 accounts and i only know one oe them…

If you are like me, you have over 150 friends…some of which do not play much and thus you forget who they are..or other times you add a person to do a certain thing. My suggestion is simple, allow us to right click on a friend in the friends list and let us have a option to “add note..” that way we can type something very brief about them so we do not forget who they are.

Ozzrel.9825:

Rev, but neither are dps gods and they aren’t brought for their dps. If you want to do big dps, play ele.

Gross, always play heavy armor.

In PvE who is currently top dog in dps? i am asking cause a few months ago it was rev…ignoring the “fix” for zerkbow..I also know that utlity wise the rev comes up on top and warrior is basically only good for might stacking…but that aside…who pushes out higher numbers?

Think lot of people ignored my main question; which is, by going full assassin is the ferocity boost (gained from blood reaction trait) gain you any dps boost? as for my crit chance currently in berserker gear i have no problem maintaining 90%+. So far from what i gathered its worth in investing in both gears?

Ross Biddle.2367:

Omega Zoa.3859:

Hello I have not played gw2 for quite awhile and while overlooking the traits for berserker I saw one called “blood reaction” and if my guessing goes right, wouldn’t traiting this while having assassin stats give more dps than berserker? Since having more precision will net me more ferocity.

No because power determines how hard you hit where’as ferocity is the damage multiplier for crits. That and also each class has various ways to augment both their stats and damage output. So if you can maintain 100% crit chance without assassins gear, it’d be better to distribute your stats into other areas (such as power).

Yes, i know what precision, power etc means, but with more precision and combined with the blood reaction trait you will get more ferocity because you get 7%-14% ferocity from your current precision and from assassin’s you get a good handful, and since your multiplier will be higher than the current berserker stats would that not net more dps? since you at this point rely on crit dmg than regular dmg.

-On my Necro the hero point south of Coztic Itzel in verdant brink is marked as incomplete on map but when i walk up to it is complete, thus i cannot commune with it, i have everything else checked/compeled, so this one hero point is preventing map completion.

-On my warrior i explored verdant brink and didnt get map completion reward, went to the second map after that did the same thing, and nothing again; it might because i already had 100% map completion prior to this? i do not know.

Completed a map in the one of the new maps, didnt get cache, am i doing something wrong? do i need to talk to someone?..

Phobos.3197:

Here’s our communication.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/updates/Game-Update-Notes-October-23-2015/first#post5672927

Yeah communication to Mesmers..dragonhunters…etc….any updates to the warrior have been silent since BW3

DaedalusDragon.3754:

I knew it.

Cynical mode activate!

I bet that they knew that this would upset players and so they did it on purpose so that they could “fix” it later and get the praise and thanks that everyone is showering them with. The problem is that 250 is STILL too much! What is so special about “elite” specs?! They did this and now they get all of this praise and still get to overly gate content to stretch the expansion out.

These should be equivalent to previous specs in cost. There should be more alternatives to gaining points beyond wvw and HPs in the new area (compare it to leveling if you must, you can level through wvw, pvp, pve, crafting). The masteries should be the leveling equivalent and I think most people are… ok… with that grind.

Also, HPs should ALL be soloable. There isn’t any reason for somebody to go to these HPs once they are done and so in the future these will be impossible to do without organized groups. We have our new organized group content (or will soon anyways) and I’m ok with the challenge that the general pve has (granted it feels a lot like pre-Orr with the ridiculous CC), so why must HPs be group content?! It doesn’t make sense.

geebus….some people can never be happy, bet if they dropped it to 1 you would still complain. I disagreed with this nerf from 400 to 250, but hey 250 is a reasonable number so ill agree with it,its only 25 hero points in the new map, some of which are free :\

I will keep this short. When launch day arrived i was eager to see what anet did with the load of feedback they got from BW3 and what greeted us?….nothing, literally no changes whats so ever, even some powerful classes like the reaper got a beneficial tweak. Now another patch dropped and yet more tweaks to other classes and warrior is completely left in the dark, we are hearing no changes at all, in pvp we are a joke at the moment, our berserk is basically rampage 0.5 kited to death. Please communicate with us, tell us what are you planning on doing, because at the moment the silence is killing us; sure if you say “no changes” that will upset alot of people but at least we will not be in the dark, from what we heard from twitch you do not view us in all that high regard because we are quote “easy” to play, which is completely untrue, but please throw us a bone.

Windu The Forbidden One.6045:

Omega Zoa.3859:

Heh, i play 100% solo and reached dragon’s stand or whatever the last zone is, only needed help on a few hero points, but other then that i soloed 100%, i am a berserker glass cannon warrior.

Yeah right.

Lol want me to use all the new elite skills? i can, do you want me to teleport from way point to way point, i can, do you want me to reach that vista? i can, invite me to a party watch me get there.

thanks lot of help

CCLegion.5936:

Ah, you won’t be able to unlock it until you are lvl80 as the elite spec is locked until that as far as I know. Don’t worry though, most of it is HoT stuff. The only weapons needed for it are the Reaper’s Greatsword, a Mystic Greatsword and a Machined Greatsword IIRC. You also need 2 event items from Kessex Hills and Metrica. Rest is locked behind masteries on HoT maps. I cannot check it ingame right now but that should be it.

Dunno….cause i got this tiger claw ring thing from a tiger and it counted towards my unlocked berserker, and i already got some sort of pearl drop too…do not wana throw it away unless i am sure it does not count towards dark harvest.

CCLegion.5936:

You should unlock it by getting the Reaper’s Greatsword, which you get by unlocking Reaper. If you did not get that, you should visit the elite spec achievement repair NPC in Heart of the mist.

I ran out of Tomes so my necro is lvl 47 So going to that elite spec achievement repair npc will help?

Hello necro friends, i only ever had one character and never bothered any others, but upon seeing dark harvest i decided to try and get it, which brings me to my problem, the collection is locked so i do not know what i need to unlock it, can someone kindly type out what is required for it, and what you have to do?/ the hint it lists. i tried wikia everything, but that is not updated, and my bags are starting to get full of new exotics…and i do not know which to throw away since the collection is locked and is not counted towards. Thank you, have a good day.

Heh, i play 100% solo and reached dragon’s stand or whatever the last zone is, only needed help on a few hero points, but other then that i soloed 100%, i am a berserker glass cannon warrior.

As title stats, please increase the amount of players allowed in the new map, as the maps are very large can we have the number cap increased please? thank you.

No baseline fast hands…almost every class got some sort of buff or fix…warriors? nothing.
