Guild Wars 2

you dare to show a screenshot of you having 2x Gwynefyrdd….

this is tooo much! >:|

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hall_of_Monuments_Portal_Stone

it is the Hall of Monuments where you can get your GW1 related skins & minipets

you can still access it though even if you dont have GW1
you just need to buy a Hall of Monuments Portal Stone (its free)

Late For Tea.1846:

Gloves have never been hideable on costumes, only the head gear. I doubt they will change this just for the wedding dress.

They’re hideable for some outfits, not all.

they are hideable for those outfits that were actually made out of multiple pieces back when they were still town clothes i think
so basically only some costume brawl outfits

PaxTheGreatOne.9472:

well then instead of just throwing 1 throw 20

that doesnt change anything

like OP said
all people hit by it still get the buff
but only a few actually get the heart effect around their characters

im more disturbed by the Living Story Achievements being sold for 30g! O_o

info update:

it also resets everytime i enter a cutscene inside a dungeon for example

—> so we have resets at:
- mapchange
- going underwater/on land
- cutscenes

edit: didnt see that Kevin just wrote that directly above me xD

omg dyeable backpieces… that would be soooooooooo epic

if it is just some customisation where oyu can add tiny things
that would rather boring :/

sooo many backpieces look epic but cant be used because the color looks horrible with the rest characters looks….

just so sad when good design is so wasted because of a tiny problem like not being able to dye it!

yes that could be

i was fighting on southwest camp in wvw borderlands und swimming through the river north several times…

that was probably the reason for me too then

my graphics were put back to native 2x now while not changing the map

cant tell yet what i did exactly when it changed…
was busy fighting in WvW so i didnt notice during fights

but it means the settings are not only reset when changing maps

just for info:

when changing map and opening the options

it still says subsamble
but it actually is native!

how does it help to go to characterselection when you want to log through your different accounts? :o

edit: nvm didnt read properly sry ^^

yes i just tested it and can confirm

when i put it to supsamble is resets to native everytime i change map

HaxTester.9816:

Will there be a divorce outfit as well? Maybe after the in-game wedding update and kid adoption update, they’ll introduce alimony and child support update next.

would buy that

maybe a Hobo dress for males after the divorce
and an expensive dress with a lot of jewelry for females :P

I’m so sad that I can no longer play on my level 1 toons in ranked, people are so much nicer when you’re level 1 since they think you’re just a nub cake xD.

you can still join on a LVL 1 character or not ??

just needs to be RANK 20

Yea you can. Sorry if I didn’t word it properly but now they know you’re not a noob since you must have played a lot of games to get rank 20 .

yes but i have seen r50+ people who just skyhammer farmed it and are worse than r10 players

Drlightningbolt.1754:

This is a disgusting amount, On top of the lack luster “sales”. Whats happening Anet why.

dude did you even take 1 look on what at least 5 people in this topic wrote as the reason why?
it is 1k gems because it equals 5 outfits in 1 (or even 10 in 1 for gender differences)

nice change

not sure why they removed the PvP tutorial though…

it took like 3 minutes
and knowing how finishing works and what capping points and rezzing downed players is in this game would be useful for people who really enter PvP the first time

it is basically 5 different outfits in 1
(completely different look for each race)
and also adjusted for every gender so you could see it as 10 different outfits that had to be designed

thats why

who even sells them on tp?
i am annoyed by having to sell the tons of rares already…

and you get even more greens in PvE by doing dungeonruns

just salvage every green item

Jockum.1385:

Khristophoros.7194:

The point of this thread was to talk about how you can ruin your DPS easily by mixing sets in power builds. A lot of people do that and that’s why a lot of PUGs in PvE have low DPS.

Mixing stats is not that bad. For example soldier armour rest zerk should be ok. afaik its like ~25% damage loss, which is ok for a beginner, a bad group or when you’re lazy.

A bad build without dmg modifiers can cause a huge dps loss.
For example a meta guard has atm 7% vs burning, 10% in symbols, 5% for GS, 10% retaliation, ~3% for boons -> ~40% damage in an ideal situation.
Scholar can give 10%, sigil of force+night 5% 10%, potion 10% -> ~40%. Both together ~96%.
Vulnerability is also helpful, in many dungeon pugs vuln is very low – like 5%.

TL; DR: buy good sigils and runes, use some cheap buffood and potions and do a lot more damage.

are you sure it multiplies?
and its not just 70%?

i hope the guy who used ~3000g and didnt get anything doesnt see this topic…

he would commit suicide :/

gz i guess ^^

RNGesus was with you there

if i was you … i wouldnt gamble the forge anymore
it cant get any better from now

Tommyknocker.6089:

I would also like either the 1 hr timer reinstated for the enchantment powder conversion boosts or my bloody gold back along with the original boosters! I’m good with the gobbler, although I would like the karma buff reinstated. I am not pleased that the boosters that gave me an hour timer yesterday have been reduced to 1/3rd of their value today.

I understand that you want players to use the store to buy these things, but must you kitten over some of the long term players in the bargain?

the 1 hour time boosters didnt change at all!

people explained it above already:
you can still chose 1 hour versions of any of the existing boosters (except karma)
and in addition you can also chose the new boosters as 20 minute versions

only bad thing that happened is that they removed the Karma Boosters as a choice

Patchnotes:
“A new Experience Booster is now available that grants 50% additional experience from all sources and game types, including WvW and PvP reward tracks, and gives a killstreak bonus on enemy NPCs.”

To me this desciption sounds like i get normal experience for leveling up from doing pvp reward tracks?
and then i get 50% more normal experience with that booster?
but as far as i know PvP Reward Tracks dont give any normal experience though…
so that cant be true i guess

and

The Ingame description of the booster states:
“+50% PvP Reward Track Gain”

which would mean i can finish reward tracks 50% faster

those are 2 totally different meanings and im a bit confused now
i guess the 2nd one is correct (since we cant even get normal experience form reward tracks)
which is quite a big boost for reward track completition if it is true

that sucks :/

especially since they wrote:
“Previously purchased boosters will still work. "

and you even invested MORE money to convert them to the enchanted reward boosters… and now you lost them

i never converted any Karma boosters myself
because they needed TWO Karma boosters for ONE enchanted reward one…
would have been kind of stupid to delete 50% of my karma boosters… xD
so it was a bit stupid of you too in the first place to convert the karma boosters :P

still not fair from anet to remove the option to chose Karma Boosters now

i always do the PvP dailies and saved ~ 600 pvp potions so far
(80 potions = 1 full reward track)

when a limited time reward track comes
i can instantly finish it
even multiple times if necessary
… last wintersday we could get PERMANENT finishers and the exotic aquabreather with AURA EFFECT from the Wintersday reward track
… thats basically a sort of legendary aqua breather^^

one thing that is really needed

is adding haircolors to the hair accessories!!

for almost ALL of the new charr hairstyles
the accessory color is actualy haircolor for 1 part of the hair…

and we dont even have the basic colors that the normal hair has for those…

there will probably be more minipet collection sets
we have 3 sets so far but there are still plenty of npcs in the game that can be used for more minipet sets

maybe you are lucky and anet includes that White Stag in the next collection

and does it stack with
- 50% thief stealth dmg reduction
- 50% Ram Iron Hide dmg reduction
- 25% Warrior Rampage dmg reduction

if we had all 5 effects that would be 168% dmg reduction
but im pretty sure that is not how this works xD

Infinite accountbound Slaying Potions would be nice
maybe for 1500 tokens?

Genoshock.2104:

So who won??

/15 char

like Booms.2594 said … not over yet

http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2

Abjured winning atm

BrotherBelial.3094:

What class are you playing? Where all the mobs hitting this hard? Saying they are too strong with out giving any detail is no help.

i was using a revenant, and was fighting 4 snipers at once.

sooo

- you used a class where you dont even know 100% yet what trait combinations are optimal for fighting
- you cant have a lot of experience playing it either…
- your gear was not optimal (celestial and dolyak runes again i guess?)
- you fought 4 enemies at once with those preconditions

and then complain?

try playing the class you play best with an optimal build for open world PvE
with appropriate stats, runes & sigils and then see how the fight goes

i really hope anet doesnt nerf anything before release
… especially if someone who played revenant complains .. ofc it is harder on revenant when people barely have a clue of how to play it the best way for PvE and dont have access to optimal gear, runes & sigils

Chuo.4238:

I like this

/15char

ooooh nostalgia…

that old version of “Vision of the Mists” the that used to have that awesome looking double hand protection hilt

guardian burn is the most horrible animation when it comes to hiding enemy animations…

i wish there was an option to turn guardian burn animations down

would be nice
… but not possible because it is a gameplay advantage for asuras over other races and that is not gonna happen…

maybe they introduce something like race specific jumping puzzles at some point… and then it COULD happen but i dont think thats very likely

doddbox.8153:

Recently got mine restored after losing it over a year ago, huge props to GM Shaolin ShadowBoxing.

did you just write a ticket asking to restore it?

because i lost mine too (i think by deleting the char where it was on)
when there was no wardrobe some time after release

Sublimatio.6981:

would be nice to have exclusively dyeable weapon set

that would be so incredibly awesome

anet doesnt need to make it possible to dye every weapon ofc… that would be insane work probably

but creating new sets that will be dyeable… man that would be one of the best customisation additions to the game ever

yes

golden color would fit to only such a minority of the players styles… would be very very sad …

i really hope we can unlock more colors
(or maybe once you achieved the golden shiny skin… then you can turn it to any other shiny color with a mystic forge recipe)

they just need to release more different skins:

so that you have a
Legendary Fire Style Backpiece
Legendary Darkness/Shadow Style Backpiece
Legendary Chaos (Purple/Pink) Style Backpiece
Legendary Ice/Water Style Backpiece
etc…

who knows what will come and what they will add

i really hope for other themed Legendary backpieces too

Gosh, I need to stop writing things to sarcastically.

As you said

“PS: don’t ban me pls, i’m just bored c:”

then I’m sure you’re aware that it’s probably not allowed, so I wouldn’t risk it. I’ll just leave it at that.

what would be not allowed about it??

he isnt exploiting anything and not using any third party mechanics or hacks to get there

I don’t really want to have a protracted conversation about this topic, but I will answer this.

I don’t know if it is or not bannable for that particular area, since there are no mining nodes, no POI, Vistas or Jumping Puzzles etc to access.

However, it would become dangerous territory if ArenaNet started saying some kinds of map breaking is ok, but others aren’t, so for this reason and in my view it is probably best if ArenaNet adopts a zero tolerance policy on map breaking on purpose.

they would have to ban TONS of players then.. xD
pretty much every player i know used a map breakout at some point

i use it all the time for the fun of exploring and finding awesome screenshot places
i am well aware that i can be banned for abusing a map breakout to get an actual game advantage out of it (even if it was just a small one)
thats why i pay attention to not do so ^^

but to be honest…
the biggest advantage you could get out of map breaking is skipping Jumping Puzzles …but who would do that? …. jp loot is 99% crap … you do the jp for the fun! xD

for me map breaking makes the WHOLE world of gw2 into one giant Jumping Puzzle
this gives me sooo much more playable content

map glitching is like 33% of my endgame content in GW2

edit:
PvP / WvW map glitches should always be fixed
even though it would be nice to have them to glitch out for fun at anytime…
but there are too many stupid players who try to exploit those things

and he is not using any third party mechanics or hacks to get there

while this would be a nice improvement for PvE
as people can swap weapons out of combat there anyway and this function would just make GW2 life as elementalist in PvE easier

its more complicated for PvP
since you cant swap weapons out of combat in pvp matches (apart from Hotjoin)

and im not sure if it is too much to let elementalists swap weapons during PvP-Matches whenever they get ooc

so anet would have to find a way to implement this function only for PvE/WvW

Zeefa.3915:

Interesting… don’t think I have ever seen a wizard in the game. Is it a new profession that will come in HoT. Pretty sure it was only revenant we would be getting.

Anyways if you wanna go for zerger ele groups, its your choice, whatever floats your boat.
But it does not give you any points and the game would be pretty boring without the other professions. If anything A-Net gains points for having a game that allows you to play in zerger ele groups as you please while others can play their guardians, wariors, rangers, necros, etc. in various other types of groups if they so please.

by “zerger ele groups”
you mean groups with 5 eles with full clerics gear? :P

Malediktus.9250:

180g for a set of 10 is hardly a problem, come back when they cost 1000 gold each

not everyone has 30 accounts that give tons of free gold by login rewards every month

yes its really really sad

all human males can take is:

No Beard
or
Pedo Mustache
or
Pedo Full Beard

how can it be that human males have not ONE goodlooking real beard ??
(and only 1 pedo like looking real beard… and 1 mustache….)

seriously wtf

Cash.2385:

[…] but heavy should easy beat light classes regardless of build. […]

lol

i think this is my time…

they still drop very rarely in southsun from karkas to my knowlede…
cant confirm 100% but a guildmember got one some while ago .. but long after the southsun event

yeh if we lose all the stuff anyway after the beta weekend i dont get why they couldnt give us 20 slot boxes for that time…

but for exotic trinkets

the crafted orbs inside them didnt get an upgrade
and i am really not sure if the basic stats of the exotic trinkets got updated even MORE than the usualy % to make up for the crafted orbs not being buffed…

otherwise ascedned trinkets are even more better and necessary now

Basandra Skye.4031:

Dungeons were, and are, going to be one of the better sources of Empyreal fragments. They didnt really need to give anything else.

then reduce the amount of empyreal fragments you get from them by 90%
still have enough fragments then….

the fragments are nothing special… just as any ascended material
it counts as 0 reward for most people because they have to delete it anyway…
