Guild Wars 2

Just experienced the same problem. Defend the perimeter started, I did not aggro anything, waited until the charr shot the chicken, defeated the mobs and now we are all standing around …………………………

Still a problem on the new day

Well if you are going to be crafting these recipes, be thankful the original release notes got modified, prior to release it was intended to be 100 skulls etc, seems to have been reduced to 10 at the very last minute (without explanation that I can find).

Can I request a forum moderator change the title to ‘Pristine Fractal Relics and Shards Essence’ please

Add Mists Essence to the list of “initially appealing but soon became useless” stuff you get.

Anyone who frequents fracs for a reasonable number of cycles, which presumably was the original intent of the game designers, discovers this eventually. At first rings are “wow, gz”, but before long you have two or more for each char. Then pristines, as has been pointed out, allowed you to get the ring of your choice (good idea of itself since how frustrating would two bank tabs of rings with no yakkington’s have been). But again, past the first ten or maybe twenty relics – no longer useful in any way. Next, vials, blobs and shards are the “wow gz” element. But it now turns out that all they can do is infuse the rings you bought with pristines [‘cos mostly you’re getting infused drops anyway] and give a little help with your backpiece. So those stacks start to build up.

Logically rings should be salvageable, and could easily have been without affecting the economy at all, just look at what you have to do to get one versus what you do to get 2-3 rares at a world boss event. Pristine relics should be able to be used to buy something else, and logically Essence should have a role to play in ascended weapons and in ascended armor. Probably Dark Matter should have been Shards of Essence truth be told.

If Anet do in fact read these forums, which their posts don’t seem to indicate, they can consider doing something about this before the introduction of ascended armor later in the year.

Fractals players unite.

Anet do not read the forums any more. This thread is clear proof. Disprove me by posting an update Anet.

A note to the moderator: It’s all very well posting the thread, but interesting that you felt the need to remove the rest of my title, which was that Anet are not responding, which they aren’t. Neither to this nor to the original thread.

As forum moderator, rather than simply removing references to Anet’s apparent lack of caring, perhaps you could better spend your time encouraging them to respond.

Sorry for creating new topic but I could not find the previous thread … actually I just wanted the title in there.

It becomes almost impossible to find whether any issue one has experienced is being addressed if the search does not work. This then requires a new post, which is one way that Anet can keep the number of posts on any one thread down, hence obviating the need to address, one suspects.

This issue was reported months ago with a last response from Anet saying it is working … haha … three months ago.

Can we have a response and update please.

Invite please …..

With the removal of MF from gear, traveler stats were largely replaced with assassins stats. The Opal Orb, however, has been given just precision and critical damage, and at levels only consistent with the stats of other orbs’ individual stat points. Surely to be consistent, to make them vaguely useful, and to possibly control the price of Ruby orbs, the Opal Orb should also have a power stat, consistent with all other assassins gear.

Interested to find this thread, since I have also found this out myself by testing today. Loss of up to 36% (it’s also true for back, trinkets, rings etc depending on what you are using). Also interested that Anet have chosen not to respond to what is clearly a major bug since launch.
Anet, want to answer?
Gaile?

Aurora Glade [EU] has just opened

still looking for eu …

Gratz NA, any EU able?

Any EU servers please?

Any European servers?

Any open on EU? Please post as and when.

This is still bugged, 5 months later. what amazes me, however, (hmm, or perhaps it doesn’t), is that after all this time Anet still do not have the manners to at least post a comment …

So these have been removed from the game with no apparent warning. Anyone else feel that it’s not reasonable to be stranded with something of (however limited) value without notice? Next week – pre-’s removed from game?

I’m in, thanks Misuki, you can join on me as well (EU)

Please looking for EU invite as well

ArenaNet, get involved …

Also looking for an invite PLEASE
