Guild Wars 2

BrotherBelial.3094:

Congratulations to the winners. Any chance for the correct answers?

And the questions, as I somehow totally missed the window.

Probably the closest you’ll get for the foreseeable future

DragonflyDusk.6582:

Here’s my Lenneth Valkyrie!

I’ve been dying to turn my ele into the same thing, but there’s no mail-style body pieces for light. Good choice though

Reanne.5462:

There is no anti-farm code in this game, other than the fact that if you want it, it won’t drop often enough to be considered farmable.

q.v. Diminishing Returns for the GW2 equivalent of anti-farm code.

This thread makes me glad I got the wings when they came and went.

Some people would complain of the forking…

Captain Prinny.6492:

It is 6 levels better than any gear you would find with req lvl 18.

Considering you can’t even get rares at that level, it is actually about 8-12 levels better than available gear, depending upon the weapon.

Phoebe Ascension.8437:

I made completed GWAMM (god walking amonst mere mortals) Legaly about a week ago. It took a day, but after a day, the achievement was granted to my gw2 account. In the HoM calculator the 4 titles I farmed are not added yet though (9 days later I think).

Never had a problem with this. GWAMM is based on having 30 maxed achievements, but the HoM calculator only shows what has been registered with the monument of Honor. Are you sure you registered those titles on that character and got the little statues?

And as I stated in my last post, people are horrible at understanding probabilities. With a low enough chance you can get a significant percentage getting nothing while a relative few get a boatload given enough trys. That’s the nature of randomness. There isn’t a discernible pattern. There will always be “unlucky” and very “lucky”.

Everything else in these threads aside…Why is that a good thing to have in a game? (accounts that remain on the low end of the curve)

To quote a very famous line: You can’t handle the truth.

That’s a pretty bad quote given the context of it. If you recall it was basically the breaking point at which Jessup was found to be hiding the truth. Are you hiding the truth? lol

It’s there to be found, and you won’t like it.

Fun fact:
Harlequin (the look you’re aiming for) is derived from an italian word for ‘demon’.

Since we’ve pretty well delved into aspects of player characters, I thought it might be worthwhile to do the same with enemies. Within reason, of course. Covered aspects could include:

Name
Level
Rank (non, Copper, Silver, gold, magenta)
Race (for sigil/potion interaction)
Affiliation (as above)
Armor values
Resistances/permanant boons
Attacks
Spawn Locations (map IDs)
Equipped skins
any other trivia that gets encoded that we don’t normally see.

Drop lists would be cool, but I’m not holding my breath

Donari.5237:

There’s more, over on her little desk there’s an open book that has a folded piece of paper in it that is also numbers in parentheses. The book is at least currently titled “Long Distance Relationships: 10 Ways to Make it Work.”

If the book is open, how can you read the title?

I have but one word for this….

I’m surprised no one has made a Dragon Spooker joke yet.

(a Guardian as natural enemy of all who live… I could see that)

sorudo.9054:

i have the CE, that already shows i payed more then most of you just on release, should i be rewarded for giving more money then most?

Yes. And you already have been.

pdavis.8031:

^^

I didnt factor in each different stat per armor. So 23 different stat types over 6 different skins adds in an additional 828 different pieces, just for light dropped armor. And of course you have about the same for crafted armor, and all the named light armor. So that makes up for the rest, so 3000 isnt that All that far fetched.

You forgot item level and upgrade (rune, in this case). These also matter.

That said, there’s only about 5500 armor pieces of the right level to give silk, and that includes non-salvagables. His estimate of ~1000 or so silk-bearing armor pieces should be pretty good.

tonny.7580:

well day 7 no luck will seeing people with portals soo i know my rng is bad still as always and it not joke

Day 7 here of no portal, can’t play in SW because I lag out after 1 minute. Guess that makes me unlucky too.

At least mine is perfectly verifiable. ;D

Eponet.4829:

I guess celestial builds will get some use out of it?

The other way around would make much more sense though.

Best fit is probably Zealot. 2nd best Cleric.

I’ll allow my spokesperson to answer.

DaShi.1368:

Probably.

100% agree that this is a slap in the face to players who couldn’t participate in the last beta.

Sing something incomprehensible, then shriek at the top of your rayeyayeyayeya-ange.
Leeeet’s doo the TIIIIME WAAARP AGAAAAAAAIN!!!!

I’d found a few undocumented consumables and was holding on to them in the hopes the API would pick them up. Guess I can use them

(Don’t worry, I added them to the wiki already. None were anything special.)

albarinos.6135:

the invincible spawn rabbit !

He has 0.50% cover. 100% miss chance!

Evidently you get it back at a hell of a pace, too!

About 394 gold, if you buy each component at their current TP price (hint: won’t happen at those quantities).

You’ll save some G if you upgrade cores to lodestones. I think conventional wisdon is that you would get a better return on your skill points and laurels if you went other routes and then bought the lodestones, but that’s more involved than I have gotten.

Pommel style makes it more like a sabre or scimitar than katana.

Define: doesn’t do anything.

You click and it doesn’t get consumed? You click it and it is consumed, but nothing happens? You click it, you get a visual effect of some sort, but nothing like blinding or damage happens to the enemy?

Also, who sold the item?

RoseofGilead.8907:

DiploBot.5472:

I just noticed over a 100 gold was missing. Discovered the problem was the issue where you click sell instantly, and instead it lists your item for some random, way too high, amount. Yeah, 2 torn garments for 1,111 gold……. so yeah, my missing gold went to the listing fee for an item I never listed for an insane price that I would never list it for. GG

You would have had to have at least hovered your cursor over the price field and pressed 1 at least a couple of times to sell them for that much.

This is why you don’t do your shopping in the middle of combat. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 w w w w e e e s s s s w w w w s w

JUN YANG.4328:

what? really? i through the new weapon will be spear we see on the first release video.

Let me introduce you to a new word…

Doesn’t fit Evon’s style.

Miku.6297:

I really wouldn’t support more things like that, the rich with all the pretty sparkly toys get more, those that don’t get left out?

Welcome to Guild Wars 2. We really do enjoy having new players around, don’t let the snarly kittens over in PvP steer you wrong.

It’s Chauncey.

Seriously.

One day, he appears out of nowhere. Cat wearing glasses and top hat. Doesn’t raise any eyebrows?

People love him. Lets him get into anyplace he wants, even royal parties. He’s the perfect spy. Who would suspect a cat?

So, why does his name not begin with E? His real name isn’t Chauncey. That’s what the people of DR named him. He just hasn’t corrected them yet.

He’s probably amused by the whole charade and will eventually show his real form at some point.

Keep for eventual return of the Bazaar (Get Those Flying Gypsies Back on Their Feet edition)

I hope they offer a refund for deleting the coin.

Then three weeks later, reintroduce SAB permanently, but never sell the coin ever again.

What I am hoping they will do is they will assign new id numbers to the new precursor skins and allow unlocking the Legendary to unlock ALL associated versions (old and new).

Unfortunately, I think that any change regarding precursor skin unlocks is going to arrive bugged in some way shape or form

reads post above his

Seems I have proven your point. I’m so sick of hearing this crap I’m not even interested in entertaining the discussion any more.

Here’s the deal. Unintended consequences. This game has had way too many ‘good things’ backfire. Champ bags is the prime example. I’m not opening up the ONE GODkitten kittenING PLACE I go to for relaxation to even the possibility of it getting overrun by griefers. They will find a way. It always happens. An exploit WILL be found, and it WILL get run into the ground.

I can only say “Go to hell” so many times.

Nope. I see Legendaries everywhere. What makes having a credit card prestigious?

Yup, this, basically.

now what if thur was a system for crafting where you could choose the base weapon, for instance Lord Taeres’s Shadow, that has lore behind it. then choose to include which effects, like the steps u want, and turn it into a legendary.

since u got to choose some of the combination used, it’d be unique

I like the idea, but it would probably be too much work.

Asuaka and I have catalogued these skins at different times. His listing is superior, and can be found here:

maxx.1279:

Although I know limited time items are limited time, I’m not sure if I was playing when this was offered, I don’t know if this will make another appearance in the gem store but I want to buy it its the only Greatsword I want, and my look will be finished, plz Anet sell it for a day or some thing?

I’m asking you to take my gems!

Also players any info on the weapon or gem store relevant to this would be greatly appreciated!

Every Black Lion weapon skin paired with one of the NPCs has been reposted in the Gem Shop at least once. Including this one. It wil make a return at some point.

Talk about having a trick knee.

They didn’t. In fact, they took away easy access to a lot of exotic skins.

On the flip side, you get a free T1 cultural chest armor and a free faction weapon now.

Edit: the story is not ‘restored’ yet. That’s some weeks away.

Technically, you are supposed to get all skins in the promotion chain before the one you unlock when you unlock a skin. So, therefore, having the Legendary should get the new precursor skins when they appear.

However, this unlocking processes at the time of the unlock. Since the Legendary is already unlocked, there is nothing to trigger the unlocking of the new precursor skins.

I expect this to arrive broken, and we’ll have to make some noise about it.

Going on prior history, a change like this will not be announced before it is implemented. You’ll know when we all do.

(Bracelet gloves you say? I may change my mind on using it).

With gw2spidy being free and popular, said app had better be superior.

That was going to be my suggestion.

Sadly true. However, wiki.guildwars2.com should be able to provide guidance
on which titles are attached to which achievements.

(Jeff Grubb) was in a photo recently from Rubi’s twitter. So he is at least still making contact with the office.

I don’t think these were the default armors, but I can’t really prove that one way or the other. The achievement chest free pvp skins was the most likely means of you getting them. If you got any of the rest of those armor pieces, congratulations, they are unavailable now.
