Guild Wars 2

It is going to be a whole new tab in the gem store with lots of new goodies for you to buy

I liked how in gw1 the Elite you chose determined your build.

You need to find a portal to lions arch in your home city, from there you can enter portals to each of the other races home cities.

Try going to your bank, then use transmute stone/crystal, then try placing the armor directly into the transmute dialog instead of onto the character.

Or it completely ends the way precursors are currently made…

See this is the thing, I have spare gold sitting around and am seriously considering investing in some of these skins.

Being themed as they are, do you think they will be available for a limited time?

I like the sword btw

What do you guys think of these skins and which is everyone’s favorite?

Don’t run straight at a Guardian standing at the end of a bridge holding a hammer if you don’t have stability…

Yes a Thief actually did this today, waved at me, then came charging shadow stepping and such, made a nice home run for me :P

To me its a bit backwards, they should have 4 maps like this, (merged servers etc) and 1 main map that is all out between servers.

That way coverage is concentrated into 1 map instead of across 4, create a separate table for the other maps.

I think it has potential to be a good place for people new to wvw to go and learn the ropes before joining the real battle.

That and the map layout is awsome, coverage isnt an issue due to its nature.

Overall had lots of fun on it today.

Yeah, force me in to WvW and I may start trying to “play the way I want”.
I think I may want to walk golems off the cliff just to see if they can fly, or maybe see how much supplies I can use by building siege equipment as far behind friendly lines as possible (keeps them safe that way). The ways I can “play the way I want” seem almost endless. ;-)

I am tempted to test that later, the flying golem…

Oops thought it was marionette

It would be better for them to make a premium membership battlefield style

No monthly fees, 1 payment, easy as pie

Ok so you see a thread and it interests you and it even has a dev reply, wouldnt it be better if we didnt have to go through all the garbage posts to get to it.

So please add a skip to anet reply button or something so we can go straight to the post we want.

Thanks for the replies guys.

I even tried tagging up and advertising a train starting in la but nobody showed up :/

Will try guesting, Thanks again.

Hiya just transferred to DarkHaven to be with an old guildie from gw1.

Problem is im from EU and they dont have a 24hr frostgorge train.

any NA servers have one?

Another question, wiki says I need 400 weaponsmith and armorsmith. is that an account bound req?

Crafting level is per character, not account.

I don’t want to be discouraging, but trying to craft a Legendary while playing the limited amount of time you are indicating and with might be a biting off more than you want to chew. Do you even have a LVL 80 with full RARE gear yet?

On the Karma issue….if you haven’t been saving your Karma to this point, you picked a BAD time to start wanting to farm it. The Devs have recently made quite a number of changes that is designed to make Karma more “valuable” and less easy to obtain quickly.

I have 3 level 80’s all with full exotic gear….

and I do play alot, just in short bursts, easily 5 hours a day.

It is just broken up over a day.

I know this is going to take months to achieve, I guess il save the shards for last, I used the 119 shards I had to make 30 clovers.

Oh and on my main (guardian) I already have map completion.

Maybe a middle ground would be better, more mobs but with say half what strongs mobs have….

Still hit hard, still take alot of damage to kill, but more threats to worry about.

Another question, wiki says I need 400 weaponsmith and armorsmith. is that an account bound req?

Tom Gore.4035:

By the way, if you don’t yet have Dusk, you shouldn’t worry about Karma yet.

Yeah the part im fearing the most..
Plan is save any rare greatswords I get, then when im done with all the other mats etc splitting my cash in 2, half for rare greatswords, half put away.

Pandeh.5248:

Do fractals and buy them, only cost 15 tokens each.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/BUY-4373

Yeah that seems fast, but due to having a young family, i cant dedicate that time like that, i barely get 30 minutes without having to disappear for a bit lol

Hi all.

So I decided to take the plunge and attempt to craft twilight.

now almost all the items needed can be had with my normal play, take a while but I know I can steadily get them.

But the shards….. soo much karma I dont have…
Was thinking of running all my alts through all the hearts to gather karma doing events along the way…

Anyone else know a faster way?

Jatacid.3725:

10. Do it, it is a beautiful game. Even just the campaign mode is worth your $60. Have fun and see you in game

The campaign is the worst part of this game, its a shambles, a mess and is not enjoyable at all. IMO of course…

Katreyn.4218:

At 100 per brick, those piles sure disappear fast. :P

And no cooldown on crafting the bricks either.

Can you sell the bricks?

Battlefield….

Lisa.6102:

Are you Serious Anet. So angry right now

Any item that you have buy orders for that have MF as a stat becomes SOULBOUND on aquire.

Now I do see the slightly humorous side that anti flippers will see

But right now I am Stuck with 100’s of Soulbound items…

at least your monthly salvage kit usage will be easy now

Tom Gore.4035:

When you say footballs do you mean the american one or the soccer one?

They are EU im sure they mean the soccer one….

Shelledfade.6435:

yeah if it was EA at least we would get something worth-while. Super adventure box isn’t exactly my idea of a good time.

bf4 in under 2 month, gw2 gonna be taking a big back seat for a while

The most functionality you get from the tag is in WvWvW as it lets you see how much supply the people in your squad have so you know if they need to resupply or not..

Champ farm in frostgorge sound is pretty good, you just do sweeps of all the champs on the map, rinse and repeat, make sure your with the zerg though.

At first you may struggle to keep up and tag the champs, but after a few runs when you know the route it wont be a problem.

If the story was enjoyable and repeatable I would have no complaints about loot

Vamistle.9710:

I have to admit i love the farming. The people who are farming are also people who got their achievements done at the start, so farming is the only thing they are getting out of these events now. If there wasn’t any farming they wouldn’t go to the invasion areas and you can sit there happy that there are no farmers but you also wont have enough people to finish the event anyway. You can’t have you cake and eat it to.

I dont think it was a dig at farmers as such, but more at the content been designed to be farmed like crazy..

You didnt buy enough gems this month so your account has been flagged for reduced texture quality, enjoy

Evans.6347:

If you have a shield equipped, and you swap to your greatsword, do you still get the bonuses from your shield?

I think it’s fairly obvious that these bonuses will only apply while active.

No but with certain sigils, such as bloodlust the effect carries over, although I dont think agony will.

Seras.5702:

Rozbuska.5263:

Its Legendary. Due to time and effort I expect something like this even if you will must unlock every single Sigil what you want to use for thakittens not gamebreaking its just comfort thingy

But it’s not. It’s not “just a comfort thingy” to be able to swap your weapon to any & every ascended stat option available. For me to do that I’d have to acquire 1 of every single stat option for a particular weapon. Which takes not only a lot of time but also gold. That’s not a comfy thing. That’s game-changing.

And as I said, you CHOSE to make the legendary at the time, if you wasnt happy with what you was getting then why make it and whine after?

And its confirmed, all my mf barring 20% poof into thin air….

You knew what came with a legendary when you decided to go for it, then Anet gives you a yard but no you want a mile.

next you will ask for the ability to switch legendary skins on the fly too?

Unlocks the ability to start a dynamic events chains around the world.

Beyond that, yeah its pointless…

The only way to end zerging is to hide challenging rewarding content behind instances…

Edit: pve only, there really is no solution to WvW zerging

Superfast.5901:

Negativity comes from people having too big of expectations from GW2 :/ they want it to be a hardcore challenge like SWTOR/Rift/WoW etc so they raise their expectations so high. GW2 is meant to be mindless fun, and it is FUN!

It is supposed to be the sequel to guild wars 1.
So far it dosn’t even compare to it.
A game created all those years ago created those expectations.

Zepidel.5349:

Yes but you wont be leveling 400-500 on time gated stuff

Source?
Nobody actually knows what the process will be, its all guess work.

You will obviously be crafting lvl 400 stuff to go from 400-425 if not 450. Common sense stuff.

Maybe the process will start like a new tier and you have to craft the new ore or material then craft the new t7 fine mats etc, maybe you wont just use 400 stuff…..

Thats the thing nobody can give a definite answer…

FrizzFreston.5290:

Magic find armor is the cheapest armor you can buy or make. You can get any other stat by changing it. That’s really just an increase in value if anything.

Yes but its gonna be account bound…

Nightarch.2943:

No need to freak out, ArenaNet isn’t that cruel as to remove your gear, I’m sure you will be compensated, don’t worry.

Compensated with the mf% I paid for? It isn’t looking like it.

Can someone explain, in detail, as to what this is all about? The OP is too cryptic.

Did you even bother to click the wiki link he posted? Everything is explained there.

Yes and I saw nothing that explained anything about how to obtain any of what the OP was referring. It is just some link to some summoning crystal.

So, what is this all about?

/spoonfed mode activated

Acquisition
Given by Fylinn, Sworn to Winds during Wayfarer’s Reverie, in exchange for a Proof of Waves, Proof of Winds, Proof of Flames, and Proof of Mountains together.

Let’s click on the Hyperlink for Wayfarer’s Reverie

Wayfarer’s Reverie is a special event that occurs around the Guild Wars 2 original release date on August 28. It is comprised of four quests which take players throughout memorable locations related to the main plots of the Guild Wars campaigns and expansion. PvE foes drop Wayfarer’s Marks during this event, which can be traded to Reverie Prize Distributors.

Now you’ve learned how to use a simple website

So, I went to Wayfarer’s Foothills and there’s nothing going on…no ‘reverie’ or whatever. I’m sitting here pounding my head against my desk. HOW DO I GET THE ITEMS?!?!

I lol’d

ArenaNet, you need to apply the mf% we are losing from gear to our account wide mf.

Everybody who bought or crafted mf gear bought it for the mf and not for the combat stats.

Its nice that you are giving us options on what to change the set to, but that still does not make up for what we got the set for in the first place, I am very happy with my build and armor choices and dont need a second set.

The only benefit I can see is if they turn account bound and I can use them on an alt of the same armor type.

But the mf needs to carry over to our accound wide mf.

archerT.1935:

… stockpiling MF gear so I can convert it into zerker gear at the patch and save some dough =D

have fun, its gonna be account bound….

And still they dodge the bullet on whether or not the mf % on my armor will carry over to the account wide mf %.

Will an equal mf % as my armor set etc be applied to my account mf aswell as changing the set type?

Or do we start from scratch again?
