Grandmaster Trait

RoseofGilead.8907

Hm, I see what you mean now. I’m not sure if it’ll show up once you hit 80; I’ve never bought one of the grandmaster traits, I’m afraid. Have you double checked that you actually consumed the tome once it was added to your inventory?

Most natural way to level tailoring / cooking

Honestly, the best thing to do would be to deposit any collectible mats. Gather everything you see (plants, wood, and ore), and make sure you keep up with what level of gathering tools you need as you go to higher level zones. Salvage any light and medium armor you get to help you get cloth scraps. Open any loot bags you get on that character, so you’ll get more mats. Also, doing map completion will get you mats and experience each time you complete a map.

I’m not sure what you mean by “what kind of level should I get my skills to before I leave Queensdale”, though. Queensdale, along with Hoelbrak, Plains of Ashford, Caledon Forest, and Metrica Province, is a level 1-15 map; you can leave anytime you want. But I’d recommend completing that map (all the hearts, vistas, POIs, waypoints, and skill challenges) for the reward before moving onto a new map.

You can’t use grandmaster traits until you’re level 80. You can buy them at any level, as long as you have the skill points and gold to get them, and you can unlock them. But you won’t be able to use them until 80. Once you hit 80, you’ll be able to use that and any other grandmaster traits.

You won’t be able to get a refund, I’m pretty sure. You could try contacting customer support to see, though. Link is at the top of the page.

Thoughts on open world pvp?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

The thing with WoW’s system is that it’s easy to accidentally flag yourself for PvP by going to the wrong place or doing something without noticing, even if you’re not on a PvP server and have no intention of doing PvP. There were at least a few times where opposing faction players would purposely run in front of me as I was AOEing/cleaving a mob, get me tagged for PvP, kill me, and camp my corpse. So, if for some reason this was ever put into GW2, I’d like for there to be no way to accidentally flag yourself.

Thoughts on open world pvp?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

There’s really no reason to assume that everyone who would like to see open world pvp is the type to camp and grief other players. Obviously, that type of person does exist (and that kind of behavior can be very easily drawn out in these situations), but not everyone will be that way.

And, conversely, not all of us who are against open world pvp are “afraid” of pvp. Some people prefer other elements. I’ve personally always preferred playing stories and fighting NPCs rather than other players. Maybe if the pvp somehow became incorporated with the story I might reconsider things, but I don’t see how they could do that without alienating both pvp players and pve players.

(suggestion)-Autosell all

RoseofGilead.8907

And what happens when you get Zap (or whatever other precursor) in your inventory without noticing, and then click autosell at the vendor or on the TP? Or if you accidentally leave one of your alternate weapons in a non-invisible bag, sell it, and then leave the map?

There are way too many ways that a button like that could end up as a big problem, especially with players’ tendencies to click without reading.

Well, what happens when you get Zap (or whatever other precursor) in your inventory without noticing, and then open the BLT tab and just click through each item to sell without looking at it?

My point exactly: people already don’t notice things enough, and adding a button that could be pressed to automatically sell everything would not help anything.

Elite Skill Slot Bug

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

When you buy certain editions of the game, you get the Mistfire Wolf elite with it, and so it’s automatically unlocked when you’re able to use your Elite utility slot. Buying those versions of the game are the only way to unlock that skill.

Yes, though your elite skill slot shouldn’t unlock until level 31, and he has it unlocked at level 21.

Ahh, true. I’d forgotten about that.

Yeah, my only idea is that it somehow carried over from Heart of the Mists.

Fine Dining collection bugged?

RoseofGilead.8907

On the collection acomplihment the one I supposedly am missing is “recipe: Feast of truffle steak dinner ( master )”; which unlocks feast of truffle steak. dinner is not shown in the name under feasts once it is opened. Although, when I aquired the recipe, the collectin should of been aquired along with the reward, but it was not.

Please read what we’re telling you. Feast of Truffle Steak Dinner and Feast of Truffle Steak are two different things. Go make a Plate of Truffle Steak. Take it to the forge, and put it in along with 17 bottles of elonian wine, 20 crystals, and 50 mystic coins. You will then have recipe for Feast of Truffle Steak DINNER.

Should I wait to open all bags until level80?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

Unless you want mats of a specific level range (ie. you want a chance at t3 mats instead of t5/t6), then yes, it’s best to wait to open until you’re level 80, in my opinion. The loot bags (I believe they’re actually called a ‘loot bag’) you get for personal story and such can also be saved for when you’re 80, if you want. The supply bags you get for leveling on occasion can be opened at any level because their contents won’t change based on your level.

Crafting legendary need beginners advice

You could go ahead and do map completion now. Also take danikat’s advice about having a level 20-30 character to do fast jumping puzzles for silver doubloons. Otherwise, just start saving up materials (especially t6 mats). Use laurels to get more t6, too.

Other than that, I wouldn’t really try to do anything else until you have the precursor.

Getting Ascended Item having very little gold

You can get ascended trinkets with guild commendations and/or laurels. If you’re lucky, you can get ascended weapons or armor as drops from champ boxes, in fractals, or from certain world boss events. Otherwise, you have to craft it, which is not cheap.

Question about ascended crafting

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

Okay, so let me just be certain I understand.

If I only had one character and I wanted ascended heavy armor and a self crafted legendary greatsword, that character would have to be a weaponsmith and an armorsmith. Weaponsmith for the Gift of Light/Dark and armorsmith for the Gift of Metal for the legendary. Also Armorsmith for the ascended heavy armor. If I then decided I wanted an ascended rifle as well, I’d have to switch a profession to huntsman and level it to max before I could do that.

Correct?

Correct.

Each character can have a max of two professions active at a time, without buying the gem store item that lets you have more.

You can learn all professions on a single character,
You lose no crafting xp earned but activating/deactivating professions.
There is a fee to activate/deactivate; it was 1 silver 80- copper the first time I did it.

Yes, I know. Hence why I said “two professions active at a time”.

I hide behind the pillar and pull his adds to me to kill them. Snipe down the couriers, too; you can also use CC on them (knockdowns, chill, immobilize, knockbacks, etc.). Once the guy’s adds are all dead, your allies will be rezzed, and you can all burn the Mouth down as much as you can. When he brings back his adds, pop back behind the pillar again and repeat.

my problem with crafting mawdrey

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: RoseofGilead.8907

RoseofGilead.8907

My problem is that it requires running fractals, which I have no interest in doing.

You just have to do a fractal level 1 once per day for 5 days (less if you take advantage of a daily).

Come on it’s not that difficult! Think about those who grinded fractals to get their ascended capacitors.

Of course it’s not difficult. But some of us just don’t care for fractals, even if they’re easy. The reason I don’t do fractals unless I HAVE to is because I don’t know if I’m going to get lucky and get four good fractals, or if I’ll end up with cliffside AND dredge AND Mai Trin. I don’t usually have enough time to sit down and do all of that.
