NoTrigger.8396:

anet, when you fix this, can you make it so a dungeon potion works against every monster in a dungeon?

Oddly enough, apparently loot tables are part of the cause…

At the very least, it was mentioned back during the Molten Facility dungeon that the reason the potions couldn’t work on dredge or charr was because the potions read off a section of the npc code that was changed to a unique ID to give the Molten Alliance, as a whole, the same drop table.

Syd.3172:

im using “Syd.3172” for my username and i’m typing the password i use for this

That’s your issue.

The “Syd.3172” is your “Display Name” – aka your forum and global in-game name. It is NOT your username.

Your username is your email address. So using the same password as here, try logging in with your email instead. Same credentials as here. Also, if you ever forget – your internet privacy options usually lets you see what sites you have stored passwords for and to view the info.

and if “all pets get immunity to AOE” they will be broken in half in any pvp wvw scenario.

If I recall correctly, every single MLG team in the sPvP tourney was running a spirit ranger. “Mediocre at best.”

Come up with a better solution.

Nope they won’t because they are already weak. The last pet to be weakened were the Rangers.

This is exactly beside the point however, because this kind of thing has been done countless times in other games as the fixall for the heavy pet class system and it works! They know it’s a problem and you guys blew up the forums when they talked about nerfing AOEs well something has to be done and giving pets a 90% immunity to AOE damage across the board has been tested before.

But I predict mind you that instead of actually looking at the development history of these systems they’ll continue to delay this mechanism and continue to have cookie cutter non-pet heavy builds for at least another year before someone actually looks at it and says “hey you know what? why don’t we do this? it’s been done before” and poof it will be finally done but it will most likely be too late because people will have moved on to something else most likely having been tired of waiting on something so simple.

WoW has one of the most reputable/successful hunter/pet systems in MMO history, and to my knowledge, has never nerfed AOE for it.

WoW pets have like 90% AoE resistance, and some AI designed to avoid stuff. Your knowledge is lacking.

Giving GW2 pets “AOE” resistance would be giving them resistance to pretty much every single melee attack out there.

Very few non-ranged attacks hit only 1 target.

The support team is actually pretty good. You might hear a good number of stories from people unhappy, bu that’s simply a side effect of the fact that most people only speak up when unhappy.

Biklen.5490:

It is the games fault for allowing it. You want me to report a player for doing what a game allows him to do. Than you can shove it. THE GAME needs to be punished and pay its dues on the fails it allows.

If this is how you feel, you realize then that the only way anyone should ever be punished by support would be for hacking or botting?

That serial harassment, being plain vulgar constantly despite it being against the rules (the filter is not a license for profanity/racism), etc would never be actioned.

Makes me wonder if you would blame the vehicle manufacturer for being caught speeding.

Have him set up a support account (via the support link at the top of this and every forum page) under the email he wants to use. They can probably help him from there, or at least get the website fixed.

Note each account “pair” (game & Support accounts are seperate but can share email addresses) must have a unique email address – so it can’t share it with the one you use (just in case that’s what’s happening).

Crossplay.2067:

In Caudecus Manor’s story dungeon, Jennah didn’t save herself.

This one is kind of tricky. It plays into the “My powers are not a threat” illusion Jennah (apparently) tries to maintain to be more peaceful with other people (and other leaders).

After all, how comfortable would you be sitting across from a person that could Mind-screw an entire army?

As far as Anise and Logan – they both want to protect the Queen, and both don’t like each other. It could simply be a form of rivalry – after all, who would want to be implicated as unable to do their job? That’s largely what their presence means to each other, as I see it. (Well, and Anise being a, um, witch with that Rytlock/Watchwork bit.)

As for a lack of Bodyguard/Principal tension – they’ve been together a long time. They’ve probably learned to trust each other, and also keep any squabbles out of view.

And Fnodette – Jennah is a queen. Marriage is a weapon/tool for her. By not marrying yet, she can use it to manipulate.

Why you so against Scarlet? Seriously, we get one sylvari who knows how to give everyone a blast when she throws a party, and everyone picks on her.

At least she didn’t fall out of the turnip cart yesterday.

Gaile Gray.6029:

I do not know if an expanded system would result in latency issues, but I do think it might overburden the servers, if on a world map a number of people are inputting large ticket-size amounts of text about everything from misbehavior to offensive names to bug reports. (I will ask a programmer and hope they don’t laugh at the silliness of my speculation there.

I know in CoH it was basically a variation on the bug report window.

If they’re really worried about that, having it open a partially-filled ticket in the default browser would be good (so say I do something stupid, someone right clicks my name and choose “Detailed Report” or whatever, it’d include Rajani Isa.6294 in a line on the form automatically. Server Time stamp would also be nice)

ShadyNZL.9018:

I don’t know for sure but I thought that if you buy them from your own bank window, that will seize to show the option after you have reached the maximum account.?

OP mentioned having “2 in my pack” – that implies he bought it via the TP interface, which gives you a token to “use” to get the extra bank space.

Interestingly enough, the normal way support looks up your purchase history apparently only has the TP items – a while back when I submitted a ticket for an issue with bank slots, it appeared the agent couldn’t tell how many bank slots I had bought via the banking window (which auto-unlocks/doesn’t use tokens, and won’t show up in the TP history).

Please read this problem

If you want someone in the CS area to re-examine it – which is what I presume you want – you need to post this in the thread “Tickets 3 days or older for Review” above in this forum.

Celestial.4381:

They could have been a little smarter when pricing their ingots, but just hitting “Match Lowest Seller” is easier.

Which reminds me – it would be awesome if the would get rid of all those “illegal” bids for items where the bid is below vendor + 1 copper.

Bubi.7942:

So… my best option is to Ask a Question – detailed description with translation provided? Pretty tedious, but I guess there is no other way.

Yeah. it would be awesome if there was an in-game version of the Ask a Question form (Maybe add “Detailed Report” to the drop down list?) but for now you have to use the site.

matis.1546:

one week after patch we have no more answers from dev, no fix and probably no plans to fix this – great!

I can understand if they can’t fix it – but the fact they have not acknowledged it gets me upset.

Went in again today, and yeah, Stick, Candle, and Extra Heart. Can’t tell yet if it still has the wallet – but no shovel, whip, bombs, or Slingshot – and I know the only thing I was missing on this character was Moto’s Breath.

All My upgrades are Gone

ozmaniandevil.6805:

You don’t need to do any PvP dailies. There are always enough non-PvP ones to get 5 without doing those. You don’t need WvW ones either. I get my dailies (and laurel) every single day without those.

I think he was more referring to the fact that he won’t get the laurel for pve daily, if he’s already finished the pvp daily (and opened that chest? Haven’t ever done a pvp daily, so don’t know if there is a chest as well).

I’m sure you’re correct. You get the chest for 5 dailies, regardless of whether you get the total 5 from PvE, PvP or a mix of both. Of course, you can knock yourself out and play for 2 hours and get every daily, but you are still only getting one chest / one laurel in the 24 hour period.

I think you’re confusing PVP with WVW.

Nice move for the targeting, but it would be great to be able to do custom targeting binds where the target command could take arguments (if you ever played CoH, like that) – the ability to add arguements like :

Nopets – ignores friendly pets/clones
Notmypet – ignores my pets
NotAllyPet – ignore’s allies’ pets
Enemy – Ignores friendly NPC
Hostile – targets only the red NPCs
NotHostile – Ignores red non-ally NPCs
Alive – Only allies that are not defeated
Downed – only targets downed allies
Defeated – Only targets defeated allies
NotDefeated – Ignores defeated allies
And also allowing us to put in a name or part of a name would be awesome.

Dristig.9678:

I’m on Blackgate. I know all about fighting zergs. I would hope they could come up with something like WoW did and give them increased resistance to AoE not just buff their HP way up like they have been doing.

Even something like deprioritizing summons in the AoE 5 count would be better than just buffing HP so high that no player can kill a Ranger Elite summon.

I don’t have the answer I just hope they can be more creative than a 70% hp buff.

I recall a forum posting by ex-dungeon dev Robert Hrouda that discussed how they considered the AoE resistance then realized, through testing, that it would make the ranger class far too powerful, at least in dungeon PvE.

I’m guessing it’s just the first in a line of changes for the pet. I don’t think it’s the only change we’ll be seeing for them ever. Just the first.

Specifically – that very few skills in this game are not some kind of AoE.

You submitted a ticket – that’s good. Zalon should post in the “tickets 3 days or older for review” thread sticked in this forum if he/she hasn’t gotten a response yet.

Angelonedge, same thing if you haven’t in 3 days.

Leablo.2651:

Phalanix.7542:

I’m surprised not more people have voiced this nor any reponses from devs.

Why would more people voice it if it isn’t happening to them?

The first response in this thread is from a dev.

0/10

Which was simply to remind people that the upgrades are character bound.

Which doesn’t help those of us that are on characters we know had the several items and logged in to just the stick and one other.

I have two characters that advanced to world 2. Can’t recall if either have the 4th heart, but the only items they displayed were the candle and the stick. No bombs, shovel, whip, or slingshot. Which I know I had all of on one of my characters, and the shovel and bombs at least on the other.

Lie?

Other than the fact they forgot to mention choosing stats seems to soulbind the items, they’ve been right on about the MF changes.

And it was a lot better for me now compared to 2+ hours ago.

I think there is a system in place (could be thinking another game) that can put a chat ban in if you spam chat too much, but not based on what you said.

Either your friends are referring to a full suspension, not just a chat ban, or they were bugged based on what I have seen. And for full suspensions, those are from people reporting them.

As far as I know, the only way support has to do anything like this is suspend/ban your whole account.

Contact support. Link at the top of every forum page.

felivear.1536:

I do not plan on doing PvE. Could you message me in game or give me a more in-depth description of what you are talking about? I literally never play anything but SPVP so everything you just said is Greek to me.

Thanks.

“we appreciate your continued purchases, Please contact customer support to confirm your identity …….” Can some one solve this problem?

If you contact Customer Support, they will assist you. =)

Specifically, via the link at the top of every forum page.

And each would require it’s own email address. They could use the same installation on your computer no problem, however.

Auto banned is getting annoying now. Anet need to compensate faulty banned to players for their play time.

Arenanet does not Autoban. They have claimed over and over that every ban is done after a review of a human being. They have systems that flag an action suspicious, but the actual ban is done after the evidence is reviewed by a human being.

This has proved many times. If you have solid proof that arenanet is lying here please share that proof.

You can argue that Arenanet makes too many mistakes. but you are not doing yourself a favor by spreading lies!

So proof please. When did they autoban and why are you so curtain?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/account/Perma-Banned-for-exploit-merged/first

^^ Hundreds of account got wrongly banned on that day. How the hell did they made mistakes by banning of hundreds of players?! So my guess is they using auto-ban and review them afterward.

It actually mentioned what happened.

They never said they don’t have a method to ban a list of people at once. They had list get added to the wrong group and the ban tool ran.

You would want to submit a ticket to support – link at the top of each page.

You would want to submit a ticket to support.

At the top of each forum page is a link to the support page.

Good Luck!

If you haven’t tried dropping a ticket at the support site (Link at the top of the forum page) try that.

Otherwise, all we can say/suggest is that in a week (there’s a 7-day cooldown on server transfers) you either pay to transfer again, or delete all your characters and transfer for free.

There are “two” places.

One is an actual bank – has a money-bag icon with the same background as the Trading Posts balance scale icon. One in each city (in Lion’s Arch, take the WP right by the Mystic Forge, bank is up and behind you).

Also, each crafting table has access to both your regular bank and collection tabs as well as the crafting-specific tabs. The collection tab being where items that you can use “Deposit Collectible” on go (crafting materials mainly).

Bank Icon The second “chest” icon is for the guild bank (if you are in one and have permissions)

Unfortunately not. They do not have the ability to refund or replace items purchased via karma or laurels.

That’s not entirely accurate though. My friend purchased the wrong ascended ring for a while ago, and their reply was that they didnt have the tools to reaward him with laurels. However, they fixed his issue by deleting the ascended ring, and awarding him with the appropriate ascended ring instead. Different solution, but same outcome.

However, even if they are doing this for laurels, that’s because laurels are time-gated, whereas you can earn that much karma in a couple days not even trying, or one day if you play hard.

If you have already updated the auth program, you will need to go and submit a ticket to support to have the mobile authorization removed unless you have your serial code handy.

If you do, try https://account.guildwars2.com/recovery – requires the email, serial code, and the name of a character on the account.

No problem.

In addition to the Anet staff, the help forums (both account and tech) have several of us fellow players that like to help when we can.

Spiderwick.1879:

What about those talks that you’ll need 2 weeks to craft 1 weapon?

That’s without buying stuff off the AH. While several of the mats are time-gated and account bound, the material you make out of them isn’t bound, from what I understand.

Anyone been able to check yet post patch to see if any of it’s been fixed?

Deimos Tel Arin.7391:

the ones sold on trading post are not redeemed with baubles bubbles right?

those drop from the chest.

Yeah, that’s what I recalled from the first time.

The Drops were sellable, not the purchases.

WereDragon.6083:

Deimos Tel Arin.7391:

seems like taking away the challenge.

I’m not here for the challenge, if I want a challenge ill go play PVP against other humans. This is tedious and I simply want the achievements

Easier achieves mean more account bonuses and free loot, more money from the chests. It’s a means to an end. Spend a little bit now make more in the long run.

EDIT: not including the fact I get to keep every bauble. I can get any of the skins I need without having to pay for replay tokens, meaning more money from BLT

How does more baubles mean more money from BLT?

Are not all the purchasable skins account bound?

Yeah, checked a couple of different characters.

Two I was certain had several upgrades have only the stick and the candle.

At the same time, they have all three zones unlocked.

I haven’t gone into it yet, but according to Death Aggro’s post the issue is that by the time you are giving a warning, it’s too late.

Is there a return to sender option?

Could be worse

I was almost ready to craft Arachnophobia. And they removed the ability to without warning.

Ok and Arachnophobia will be returning next month. As far as everyone is aware of, Armbrace of Truth is gone.

I saw that note about it returning – but still, no warning. I was basically waiting for a few more Destroyer Lodestones.

Could be worse

I was almost ready to craft Arachnophobia. And they removed the ability to without warning.

Already been posted on by a redname (check the dev digest) – nope.

Not of the upgrade components – which the gems in the earrings are.

We can only choose the stats of the base item.

Infantile Mode is separate from Normal mode. Progress in either doesn’t count for the other.

That is working as intended. All the preview stuff said it was going to be this way.

And this is more a general discussion thing – it doens’t have anything to do with the SAB.

1 – Do you mean Rune of the Traveler? Rune of Speed is just 5% (off the wiki).

2 – This really doesn’t belong in the Living Story forum.

All the blogs/chats/etc mentioned them becoming soulbound upon stat selection – if it didn’t in the notes that’s a dropped ball.

And this really should be in Gen. Discussion.
