Story rewards you can’t sell, map rewards you certainly can. If it was soulbound or account bound it would say that not “soulbound on use.” I would try moving it to your bank, then back to your storage? If nothing else, you can try to salvage it for ecto/sigils.

Brogan stuck at the “protect Brogan as he investigates the grawl event” stands at dragon totem but doesn’t move and chain won’t advance. Jade Quarry server.

I found this one and the one near Sorrow’s Embrace to be terrible. I enjoy map completes – admiring the scenery, killing things that need killing, finding all the little hidden things that the game has to offer but the time I spent on these – I could have completed another map, without getting stressed out and frustrated and only not giving up because I never wanted to go back there again.
True JPs should be optional, whereas vistas and skill points should have some challenge but not be so time consuming and complicated that they overshadow the rest of the map.

Well they’ve been pretty consistent in not implementing things they’ve specifically said they had no intentions or could not be implemented, despite public outcry. So really, I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for a reversal on this one.

There are significant problems with your suggestion. First off, it forces everyone to take up twice as much server space as you’d have both an NA and EU spot. That’s not practical. Second, since each datacenter is isolated from the other and do not communicate, how would they keep each copy synchronized? In the event of a communication issue which copy takes precedent over the other? Can you imaging the mess if there is an issue and a few thousand accounts get corrupted? How happy would you be then?

If you want to have a presence on both an EU and NA server simply buy a second account. Problem solved. Then you’ll be able to play with all of your friends no matter which region they are in and not have to worry about paying for server transfers or 7 day lockouts.

Oh right, just buy a whole new game, spend 60 dollars and invest time and effort in rebuilding everything you have. Everyone has the time and money to do that.

Data centres can’t communicate? Really? We live in a digital age, not the age of the pony express. It’s amazing that in Guild Wars 1 this wasn’t an issue. And I and I imagine many players would take a few hours of downtime if that meant the ability to play with all of our friends.

So really, we should just shut up because they have failed to do something they promised to do at the start, something they did in a game that is eight years old and worked fine without major catastrophes.
We have features like multiple guilds that are worthless because if you are in a guild that is on a different server, you can’t play with your guildies. And if you belong in guilds that are in different regions because your friends are there, then oh, just shut up and suck it up.

Many of us who played the original Guild Wars made friends all around the world. Now we are told that we have to pick and choose what friends we can play with. We could play across regions with anyone we wanted in Guild Wars, a game eight years old. Now, this, a fancy new game with fancy graphics and fancy mechanics is unable to handle players from two regions?
Uninterrupted game experience? I consider being severed from people I have known and played with for years an interruption of my gaming experience.
