Guild Wars 2

Gobabis.5296:

Reincarnated.1754:

I have noticed quite an increase in commanders now, and sometimes we have a few on together.

Join the squad of the commander you wane to follow and all the other pins will disappear, if you are a commander ask your followers to join your squad, PROBLEM SOLVED. Guilds often run with out taggs as they run specific builds that get interfered with by pugs tagging along.

I know all that, I am trying to suggest more options.

Guilds do run without there commander tag on and use the Target to identify there commander, this could be better used if each of the commanders parties could use it to target specific enemy.
If the commander of a guild could have the tag on and also identifies the fact it is a guild command and only want guilds members following, the commander can use the added utilities that come with the commander tag

I was just suggesting if we had colours:
In WvW
Blue: The main commander of the map
Gold: A guild squad
Green: A new commander wanting to learn leadership.
Other colours to be used for Types of command.

It would add feedback to all commanders on a map, and give an idea at to what a commander is doing.

Obviously this has not made any sense to a lot of people.

I was not sure where to put this topic.
This was the sub-forum that mentions Forum so I put it here.

It’s about merging topics.

The latest good example is the MegaServer.
For kittens sake don’t merge this topic with that topic. It’s not about megaserver.
It’s about what the moderators do with topics posted about a subject relating to a major topic that others have also posted.

Moderator just picks a topic and sticks all the other topics relating to the major topic onto the end of it and it gets lost in the middle of a tone of pages.

The original topic title and question is lost.

What they should do when there is a major Topic is create a sub-forum for them and move the post in to it.
This way the titles remain with the start of the post and if more ppl want to add a new topic relative to the major topic, there is some where for them all to be localized.

Finding what ppl think about what you posted after it has been merged in the middle of other ppl’s topic is a nightmare.

Hope some one made sense of what I am trying to say here.

All maps are now megaservers,
Make all Ruins of Orr temple defend events fail.
that way the farmers have a shot at defending, and those that want to do the capture event can do the capture.

Thanks for the feedback guys

Blude.6812:

Thanks for that!
Here’s another one

Nice, but there is no option to mark the ones I’ve done

I did a little PC App to help me keep track of what Boss I have done each Day

https://www.dropbox.com/s/30pc9nqymhvk4ge/Boss%20Timer.zip

https://www.dropbox.com/sc/oshkf54k0a6v5iy/-PpWe8-LBe

Thought I would share

Take Ruins of Orr of the Mega server.

Or make the event happen

No one can do Temple of Lyssa now because it is defended all the time.

Get it sorted so people have a choice

What do you think about Mega server?

Do think it going to get boring not having a choice or not knowing when events happen.

I for one hate over populated events.

Do you think the above could happen?

Yey. At last they fixed it

I guess there are pro’s and con’s to every thing, but I think the power an AC has on other siege has gone OTT.

What do you think?

If siege was invulnerable to AC, would it make things better?

Razamatazz.9628:

I was actually quite surprised when looking at it and it said “death”. But it makes sense that they drop when downed, just like all other stacks do.

In regards to them being useless because of that, I use a superior sigil of corruption. Until I switched to a sturdier build I was considering getting rid of it as well, for the same reason as you, I could never stay alive long enough build many stacks. Now that I run a condition damage/vitality/toughness build I don’t die very often at all. I know it’s tough as an elementalist, much more so than a mesmer, and feel where you’re coming from (I have a guildy who runs a glass cannon ele and I credit him for a large chunk of my combat healer title). It may be time to reconsider your build a bit if you can’t keep stacks up to the point where you feel that what is arguably the best WXP point investment useless. I would guess that if you have the ranks to get those stacks you know what you’re doing from the time you’ve spent in WvW, and thus your build is lacking the survivability your play style needs.

I am an ele/staff I go to the front of a zerg to aid in a push, my main skill to force them back is meteor shower which takes about 4 second to cast. I rely on misting back for res, as staying alive for more 4 seconds at the front is not going to happen.
So the buff is gone on the first push.
So I suppose if I want to keep the buff I stay at the back with the rest of the cowards and run when the push fails.
(I cant send in clones instead of me and hide)

It seems I must have been imagining things when I got this Buff.

I guess I don’t understand English when I read what is says in the description and tool tips.

It really Peeves me off when you spend months collecting World Ability Points and find that it has been a waist of time, could have allocated the World Ability Points to something more useful.

As usual it seem I’m wrong again.

Also I would reply to some peoples answers but I don’t want any more demerits

Do anyone from ArenaNet read these post so that we get an answer and maybe update the wiki. I do look there before asking what seems to be silly questions.
(I am being sarcastic now for those that don’t realize)

Is Guard Leech and Applied Fortitude going to be fixed?

If I am going to lose it every time I go down (Ele/staff), then if the Rank and abilities get reset again, I don’t see the point of using all my world ability points on guard killer and defence against guards, I’ll put them to some better use.

It say lose on death, when I first git them that’s what happened, not on down.

DeWolfe.2174:

They need pin dye’s, that’s all. Then each group can make it’s own ranked color theme’s.

That’s what I’m trying to say, Enable the tag to have different colours and players can decide what the colour represent.

Looks to me like they are making refresh rate times longer every where to squeeze more people onto a server

Since the last update, the WvW Map Refresh rate seems ridiculously long.

edit

Dose no one care that the map is 6 seconds old?
(every thing you see on the map is 6 seconds ago)
No idea if to res downed players, because the map does not show them down until the fight is over, by that time they are dead.

The map is useless

Guard Leech and Applied Fortitude,

It say stacks are lost on death.

I used to loose them on death now I loose them on down.

Is it a bug?

Vick.6805:

@OP

I think I’ve had that happen. If it’s the same issue, you’re talking about the mini-map when you first load into a zone, right? Mine stays all pixellated for a good 10-15 seconds after loading in, when before this patch it loaded as soon as the loading screen dropped. But then, server-side lag seems to be a huge issue lately, too, so it may be affecting the mini-map as well.

Yes that is the issue, also if I bring up the main map.
Sends my eyes cross-eyed, and gives me a bad headache.

Maps take for ever to load.
Ever since the last update.
Is it just me or do any1 else have the same problem?

It’s a long time since I suggested this, but with the new and wonderful game content we are getting now, where people have to get together in and organised event, I thought I would bring it up again and hopefully we may get more of a response.

An example now is tequatl
Here we have many commanders in the event.
I’m am sure it would be easier if one commander could say: blue squad here, red squad there …….. and so on.
I’m sure you get the picture.

Forget the ground targeting option you just added, it is useless, some people don’t use the keyboard to select a skill they use the mouse on screen.

the options don’t work if you use the mouse to select a ground targeting skill

Can we have the above?

Any one over 50 done tribulation mode.

Just want to know if it’s me that’s c**p or I can put it down to LAG that makes it impossible

The animation does not always seem to work.

Is there no one else out there that gets kitten ed off selecting ppl in stead of mobs, and not knowing if there attacking a champ or small mob when there is a lot of ppl and mobs about.

I thought this would be a welcomed idea.

Well done.

Thank you for changing it.

Seems to be fixed now

I don’t want to get an other demerit but I think you guys know what’s possible.

any ways I have since found out that New overflows for the invasion event are not created after 10 minutes from the initial announcement.

A simple “if then else” would work, with a massage for those that don’t know this would have been nice.
Like: this is a current invasion event map, over 10 minutes has elapsed since the start, you may not end up on a would with the event in progress.

As for going into an overflow, I must know if the main map is full or it would not put you in an overflow.

when the waypoint conformation dialog box pops up can we have a bit of information like:

You are heading to an overflow
The overflow that you heading to has no Living world event in it.

I’m sick of traveling to worlds to do something and it’s not happening, cant do it

Elemental.
With Staff
Fire Attunement
Fireball Skill (Skill1)

Is this ever going to get fixed?

It fires twice when you use it.
If it has auto selected a target and you select a different target, it sill hits auto selected before changing to new selected target (well if it decides to switch to new target)

Maybe I just have some setting on I shouldn’t, But it can be a pain when you are PvP.

Don’t anyone come back saying STAFF is not a PvP weapon, I KNOW, Skill 1 is slow enough without having to w8 for it to fire twice.

theguildless.1386:

First, you are talking about Vapor Form and not Mist Form.

Second, as ExTribble said, this is not a bug. You are still affected by conditions when downed, but sadly you can’t see which one are on you until you enter Vapor Form.

Third, thieves use a teleport skill when in downed state. All teleport skills are not affected by immobilize since you are not actually moving.

Feel free to bring your concerns to the suggestion forums. Remember however that balance and game mechanics always come before “realism” or however you want to call it.

I was thinking of balance when i asked the question, It seams every time there is an update, the elementalist/staff can do less and less, some ppl cant play any other charector

Is it just me, or do anyone else think the wing animation is upside down?

It looks to me as though the movement of the up and down axis should be reversed.

ExTribble.7108:

You’ve been immobilized, that’s all. Mist form doesn’t cure conditions, and lots of people just spam immobilize on elementalists that go down so they can’t get away after activating Mist Form. Inconvenient for us, but it’s fair.

Mist should be mist, does same immobilize work on thieves?

I thought i was suposed to be able to escape using Mist Form?

when in WvW I am unable to move in Mist Form when attacked by some skills

Can we have more text please

Also when we click edit.
Can you make it so the original text is there in the edit box to edit?

Can we have an option in optoins to be able to turn off the ability to select allies with the mouse while in combat mode?

I’m sure im not alone in saying, i select enemy/mobs with the mouse, and when ther are lots of ppl around an event i spend most of my time selecting allies and don’t have a clue which mob/enemy i have selected.

This game against a real life person i expect will be a total different game.

I understand having to do quests that ask you to compeate with NPC to get you aquated with the game.

Surely when it has gone on for 15 minutes the NPC gives up, like we have the option to do?

had to come back coz i is p****d off again.

Thought I may have over done it with the sarcasm? answer, nope.

Decided to try Graster Beakerbane

Dont get me wrong guys, I love the game as a whole.

Sometimes thogh I wonder if anyone knows what sarcasm is?

I just had to say something after spending 2 hours with adnul and i still dont have the achevement.

TV on, cup of tea in one hand mouse in other, Click Click Click Click Click Click Click Click Click Click Click Click …………………………………………………….

Its caled “Belcher’s Bluff”

what you do is get a blank board abot 300mm square and 2 die and roll them on it, what ever the score you get, you add your score + 1 for the NPC.

you spend the rest of your live doing this.

I thought Guild Wars 2 was one of the new leading 3D games with fantastic animation and effects.

Am i wrong?

Is there a 64 bit client?
Will there be a 64 bit client?

I open Task Manager and I see Gw2.exe *32

Reincarnated.1754:

So I would like to know who the bill goes to for the new mouse, keybord and replacment window goes to?

Send the bill to your parents.

Indeed, though it probably would have been cheaper to buy a better computer that can play the game.

You are probbaly right.
I go look what I need

Keyboard and mouse = In the post hahahahaha

Thanks for your comments)

I have a new question.

The above requirements are the minimum Specifications reqiured, (I can only think ppl who have that play the game in black and white)

What would be the minimum required specifications needed to have to be able to turn all the options on maximum?

btw
I Don’t Expect An Answer, I don’t think anyone knows.

I have spent ages and ages and ages and ages and ages getting all my settings in the options to a point where the game runs resonable and acceptable.

Basicaly every time you do a xxxxx an update I have to turn off options on my graphics card.

I end up with that much LAG, Reduced FPS and freeze Frame my Mouse and keybord get yanked out of my compter and thrown through the window.

So I would like to know who the bill goes to for the new mouse, keybord and replacment window goes to?

Useualy I sit back and calm down by the time I have written this far (takes me ages to type), so it gets deleted.

F it, i went into the new dungeon and my FPS droped from 35 to 11.

Great help guys, helped me finish.

I would like to see an acount wardrobe, a place where you can put all your soulbound armor and weapons.
Once it is soulbound only one charector can use it and I do like have different setups depending on what I want to do in the game.
Half my inventry is taken up with soulbound armor and weapons.

I do have it now guys, I hope you do realize. (I do love keeping things going).

It’s the way it is worded, it implies +% to your current speed not the speed everyone starts with.

It should not say: speed + 33%
It should say: Set’s speed 33% faster than normal.

Recycle.5493:

Reincarnated.1754:

The percent sign (%) is the symbol used to indicate a percentage (that the preceding number is divided by one hundred).

That reads to me like there should be a figure that the % boost is a % of.

You should be able to google and find that number in the first search result which is the official GW2 wiki, which is what I posted, which you did not seem to read at all.

Below are normal and in combat speed (unit/second)
Forward, 300, 210
Strafing, 180, 180
Backpedaling, 105, 105

Reincarnated.1754:

One of my allies runs slower than me. I have to keep w8ing for my allie to catch up.

Yes

Reincarnated.1754:

Q: I use Windborne speed, do i still run faster than my allie or do we run at the same speed?

No, you will both be boosted to 33% increased movement speed. As wiki and forum posters above have stated, movement buffs do not stack, only the highest will be taken into account.

I stand corrected thankyou.

The simple answer to my original question is:
Yes +33%
(all boosts = base speed + % not speed + %)

I have another question:
Please explain Superior Rune of Speed (Rank 6: +7% move speed while using swiftness) on this page: Movement speed
Is it bugged becouse: +% = Base Speed + % and not Speed + %

Please exscuse me on the other question, I was just being pedantic.

Drunken Mad King.8193:

The trident used to have an animation of the feathers floating around. It was a nice touch but apparently many items in the game were affected. I am sorry you haven’t gotten a response to this but the reality is that Asuran’s with T3 had their armor messed up and we haven’t had a response on that either.

It’s just something you have to live with until they get around to fixing it… if they do.

Thankyou Drunken Mad King.
I hope they get time to fix it.

This is the trident i’m on about:
Shaman’s Norn Trident

Guys, I would like to say the other day I had an enjoyable play of the game.

Everything did what it was suposed to do.

I realy enjoyed that day.

Did some investigating to find out why it ran so good that day and came up with the following results:

Nothing wrong with my PC, I had made no changes to it.
The internet connection speed to the US was High, It was at the speed I expect the internet connection to be.

Conclution: game is the best on the market just need to find out what the lowests speed connection it is playabe at.

I just hope the internet connection speeds to the servers dont get so slow again to make it a missery to play. When it does what it is suposed to do I just can’t fault it.

Um, someones tring to get me some more demerits.

Ok, I have had some more toughts on the subject.

Lets see, I’m sure I’m going to get some silly answers ( I do hope the word “silly” is not going to get me a demerit ).

The percent sign (%)

Let’s Google it, Recycle . Oh waht do you know it says look at Wikipedia. (ho dear there come an other demerit)

The percent sign (%) is the symbol used to indicate a percentage (that the preceding number is divided by one hundred).

That reads to me like there should be a figure that the % boost is a % of.

Example: I run at 10 miles/hour i get a boost of 10%, I now run at 11 miles/hour.

so

One of my allies runs slower than me. I have to keep w8ing for my allie to catch up.

Q: I use Windborne speed, do i still run faster than my allie or do we run at the same speed?

Answer to come later
