According to that I would assume so yes.

The sticky at the the top of the forum explains that the search bar doesn’t work

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Super-Adventure-Box-merged-1/first

For your perusal. The short answer is it can’t come back atm because changes to the engine broke it and thus it needs a rework. Not something they want/have time to do right now.

Thanks for the reply Gaile and being honest about its failure.

I presume there is no chance of upping the bloom numbers, just so that those who are involving themselves can get something? Or at least reducing the vendors requirements.

This is the worst PVE event ever for GW2

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Randulf.7614

Randulf.7614

Yes, although I’d prefer something closer in structure to the original invasions, it was meant to be a light hearted 4 day event. New mechanics should never have been expected.

I can live with the basic level of the event, just like I can with the Halloween Labyrinth. The only difference is I feel rewarded when doing the labyrinth.

There is a positive spin to all this mind you. I’ve never actually seen the entire community on the same page before. And the event isn’t as well designed as the Scarlet Invasion which almost makes you miss Scarlet. Another first!

Remember…always a bright side

There are many issues with this event and new players

- many have no idea whats going and think this event is normal part of the game
- those particpating cant earn the rewards due to high bloom and gold reqs
- map chat is somewhat unsavoury
- its hard for lowbies to navigate the map now
- vets can kill mordrem with ease. However they are too hard for new players

If this was meant to bring vets and new players together, tighten the community, advertise HoT and give guilds a platform, it hasnt succeeded in that endeavour.

please, a good reason to skip my xp?

Do u mean from the event? The modrem event gives no gold or xp

Otherwise no idea why nothing is giving xp or gold

Just drag them out of your inventory and click.

I think it would be better and cause less issues to have the addition of a favourites list within the crafting panel.

Indeed.

Still, it just feels more rewarding to be rewarded at the time, rather than an unknown sometime in the future. I’ve sort of lost interest until I hear rewards are actually be rewarded (at the time of play).

It also seems like a bit of a Gold Sink. Either spend a lot to waypoint around, or often just not make it to the events in time. Until I understand how much I’m earning per event, I think I’ll wait (a bit).

Yeah ive given up til tomorrow too. Plenty of other things to do, like stopping my Fallout Shelter population spiral out of control………

We have to many currencies as it is, though. Problem is, the more currencies you add, the more confused new players get. I coulda swore Extra Credits did a thing on this, but I can’t for the life of me remember which episode it was in. Regardless, token, , or currency bloat can be a big problem in MMOs.

It can be yes. TSW did a bold move merging everything into almost a single currency for everyything, incl raid gear. Ie what Karma was hoped to achieve.

Again, im kinda ok with it here, but currencies must be in the wallet. That reduces a lot of the problems straight off.

Uhm. I didn’t get to play this event yet, so i’m wondering…. what happened exactly? Why are you guys so kittened? O_o

Theres a bug preventing rewards. Its being fixed, but unless you look at social media or forums, players in game dont understand what is happening and why 30mins of time is giving nothing. Thus the spiral of arguing. Its not pretty in map chat…

Plus the rewards vendor is expensive (seemingly) and some ppl dont like the event (seems as expected to me, but each to their own)

Cheers for the updates Gaile.

Theres some valid feedback about vendors needing gold for the items which is shutting out new players. Since your intention was to bring veterans, new players and by proxy, guilds, together….id argue this is a major barrier. Worth escalating to the right ppl.

It should be a social, fun event, not another gold sink or about the games economy

Its a good thing it is a currency, esp as ppl have asked for currency based rewards time and time again.

They should however, be in the currency wallet. Its designed for this exact purpose

Lol I do like your last bit about charging heroes for saving the World.

Joking aside, if this is also aimed at new players, I think it might be a bit off putting for them to have generated any money in the early weeks. I have no issue with the mobs not dropping loot (ala SW), but the vendor I’d prefer to be token only and not grindworthy (the latter we wont know until they fix the event rewards)

Man what an event

If we understood it correct you need more than 15 stacks to get rewards.

I got rewards after 3 stacks. There are known issues with reward generation.

In hindsight, it is rather wise they released this on a Thursday so it can be fixed before the weekend…

I like the originality of your idea, but it is really unneceesarily convuluted compared to a simple UI switch.

Something like what TSW uses would be perfect for GW2 and that invoporates largely the same intricates in the builds.

All HoM skins can be applied free of charge without visiting HoM. You just need it in the wardrobe. That sets a precedent for gem store skins if they choose it.

I can understand if you have paid money for something, that you should then reapply for free going forward.

It isnt a huge deal and i get the reason is just to make further money from stones which is fair enough, but it would also make a nice QoL change. The number of gem store skins is quite small, since outfits now dominate and they are buy once, apply free forever, so it might not impact them a great deal.

They were destroyed, including the one at the Fort in Kessex

In fact I think (if memory serves correctly) there were quite a few around Tyria during the early S2 build up, most were fixed except for Fort Marriner and Timberline ones

If you don’t mind it taking months, then that’s all good.

Your options;

- Dailies = laurels. Use them to buy ascended trinkets at the laurel vendor (Id advise using the wvw one)

- Silverwastes – the current high end pve farming and events area. Mats drop like no tomorrow along with champ chests

- Fractals. Higher end fractals will drop ascended

- Spvp. I believe ascended can drop from the chests there. I dont pvp so can’t confirm, but Im pretty certain this true. I believe WvW has the same chance

- Crafting. You will need mats from PVE farming, champ chests, jumping puzzles, dailies etc etc. Weapons are easier to craft than armour

- Tequatl has a rare chance to drop Ascended weapons
