Guild Wars 2

Considering the greatswords have their own skin (Felblade), i’d say absolutely.

I don’t see a part about Burning Speed sometimes firing you in random directions instead of in the direction of the mob you are facing, and targeting (unless I overlooked it). It makes me leery of using it at heights since I occasionally go in some weird direction at absolutely nothing.

Oh, I do like the idea of full auto muting after x number of reports. It doesn’t even have to auto ban them, an auto mute that takes their chat/mail abilities away until someone can look at the reports would be great.

After all, even if someone somehow manages to tick enough people off to make false reports on them that jeopardize their own accounts by doing so (I have no doubt there are counter bans if you go reporting people for nothing), being unable to chat for a day or two isn’t going to massively cramp someones gaming. They likely would have been starting a flame war if they got reported that many times anyway. :P

All I can do to my posts or anyone elses is ‘Permalink’ sometimes, starting a few minutes ago. If I re-post on the thread, the options all pop back up like edit, delete, +1 to other people, etc.

You can find them by reading the News link when you open the game launcher. Two items are setting in the forge on the picture. Everything you can combine with them is sitting in the persons inventory.

My tonic was non-perminant, alas. Just 3 of something, lol. Good to hear there is something somewhat specy from it, though.

No.. I meant put them on Our Block list temporarily, not block them from the game automatically. Aka let us ignore them temporarily, so that people who have their accounts stolen don’t end up on countless peoples ignore lists. Imagine how hard that would be to get a dungeon group when everyone has you on ignore and doesn’t remember why.

I don’t care if it says Gold Selling, but I would like Report to automatically put the person on an x hour block (base it on how long it takes the reports to actually get looked at atm).

I know some people claim it doesn’t matter because they swap accounts often, but the reality is ANet is a smaller company, so the gold sellers are not actually needing to swap very often since they don’t get shut down as fast.

I’ve seen the gold sellers from yesterday still actively spamming the next day so an auto temporary block would be nice. It would cut down on the amount of time we have to waste on getting them out of our hair, and also stop us from putting stolen accounts on block, which i’m sure is going to be a social problem for some of those people when they do get their accounts back.

For those interested in the value of the potential results.. I tried it once for straight up curiosity/less wooden dowels clogging up my bank. I got a junk item that sold for 10s and a form tonic.

I chatted with someone who tried it, and they got a ‘use the forge from anywhere’ item. If you happen to have globs sitting around without a plan for them, great. Not likely to be worth buying one much, though.

Sounds like someone may have figured out how to manipulate the information back and forthing between the server and the client. Took Blizzard years to finally thwart that by making the game client crash if it sent back information that seemed too far off the last communication between the two.

That is, unless they mastered the Ele earth bug. >.> There is something that happens with the dagger earth ability to pull yourself to a mob once in a great while. I have never been able to reliablly produce it, but sometimes it lets you pull yourself to a mob waay out of it’s range. I have done it by accident (tab targeting) a couple times, but not in recent.

wormbuffet.8619:

My gripe with this is that I love and also must try to find all recipes. Going through the discovery mode is fun but you have to drag every item towards your bags and it gets tedious trying to fit everything, singling out items that don’t have any matches and removing them for a new one and so on.

I’d love a way to organize this better. As others pointed, the other crafts are pretty straightforward, but this one is rather complex and requires better handling in my opinion.

Hey Worm and others, just a heads up. They said somewhere that the make known recipes from your bank ingredients feature is something that could get added to. They mentioned discovery might be included someday.

Looking at the gemstore in game before suggesting new purchaseables that already exist is a pretty good idea. Does not require filling slots. I bought all the ones I planned to have up front the first day.

Are you trying to say we might not want to see our entire eyeballs or teeth through our own faces when tilting a camera up? What a strange concept!

(I know, not exactly your complaint, but still.. an illustraition of some of the issues of tilting the camera up).

So are you saying CTRL+Shift+H isn’t working for you, or are you saying your special keybind stopped working and you cannot remember the standard way?

Broken since the game was released as far as I know. I’ve never seen Lifetime go up.

So, we can /death still, like GW1. No count of our currant XP, however. Only a tally of our character’s number of deaths. This was the main reason to even use /deaths in GW1, and since Monthly Survivor unhelpfully tracks the highest you ever got, not what you have right now, we have no real way to know what we’re at right now. Please make it function like it did in 1.

The bar records the highest you have ever gotten to (monthly. Lifetime is completely broken lol, it only ever shows 0 for me at least). So if you are looking at the monthly, it is showing the highest you ever got to before it reset for whatever reason. It doesn’t go back to saying 0 after resetting.

Kaveck.1532:

I am having the same problem except it only seems limited to the Sylvari for me, even when out of the starting area Scouts remain silent also, this is only happening on a newly created character.

For narrowing purposes, I will add that my Asura has existed for something like 2 weeks, though she isn’t very high level as i’ve only played her a couple times. She just didn’t start her story before today.

At least 60% of all early Statics line vocals are missing right now. I decided to start my necro Asura’s story today and it was mostly rather crickets chirping.

I thought they fixed this. We saw it in the early days, when my server was stuck with the same exact matchup while others were getting new matches. The one server very clearly, distinctly and obviously had more than the cap.

People spoke about it in map chat like the bug was common knowledge when others asked what on earth was going on, while we watched both ourself and the other team pitted against the giant team be unable to own a single keep or supply post for more than a matter of minutes before they steamrolled over us to take it back. I assumed it was fixed when they finally got us out of the repeating match. I can for sure say it was happening to us during that period. They had enough people to hold every single thing on every map while the other two teams hovered at about 2-4k points.. on a match that was not resetting for days so the third teams score kept skyrocketing.

You didn’t post the match results on that other thread for the days our server was in the broken matches Mike, but i’m sure you can see them as potential proof that bug did occur. How else could a server play what I think was a week long match, and have such stark difference in the point numbers between one team and the other two?

Deleting my post on this and posting it here since this is an art glitches collections thread.

So, my charr have weird spots on their tails. Both of them have this, but one of them also has an odd nose seam going on, so I went ahead and displayed it on her. Is this supposed to be happening? I’ve seen the tail spot since beta, on a different video card back then. The nose seam is new, however.

I’ll have some clothing issues to add tomarrow but I don’t have a screenshot handy atm.

Fishing is already planned as an ‘in the future’ addition. It was talked about in Beta that they did not have an ETA on it, and it would not be there for release.

I would like to see an official post on this as well if it really is happening. Considering my guildie saw a level 25 bot in the human tutorial area the other day where I doubt loot is the ultimate goal since it wasn’t being scaled down by the system and could one shot things, I doubt this is going to deter botting itself all that much.

It will certainly hurt completionlists and crafters if we are punished for staying in the same zone, though. Especially with all the claims of Survivor breaking when you leave a zone.

It is a nice idea.. as thusfar i’ve not heard anyone mention bots that can move (i’ve seen them coded it move on their own in other games from point A to B ) but not a docking system over an entire zone.

Have you tried running with auto run to see if this is happening purely when your mouse hits the effective ‘edge’ of that screen? That might help them narrow down the cause if you do a little more testing of different controll combos.

Actually, I’d rather have more revealing male armor. You cannot even showcase your Sylvari male character’s bioluminesence on their -arms- because they’re so covered up generally. I don’t care if females do get more, but they already have some. Very little in the case of, say, male clothies.

I agree with all the Guild suggestions, especially the lackluster nature of the roster. If someone logs out on an alt, I cannot see a thing about their main. This is frustraiting when you are cooking and want to send some guildies some level appropriate food from your stockpile or such.

Some of the rest not so much. I do tire of seeing people beat that dead dueling horse, though. Especially when the company has made official statements on their stance of it a number of times. Here’s the first one that came up on Google. There’s other references to it out there, if you hunt around.

When you look at dynamic events, you need to take a very, very serious look at support. I personally prefer to go straight damage, but I have several friends that work hard to keep everyone alive and fighting – and get nothing for their efforts.

This. I have to decide ‘Do I want gold, or do I want to get the dead/downed people up’ quite often, because even doing that is going to drop you down to silver or bronze a fair bit of the time.

Making repeated tickets on the same problem actually puts you at the back of the list, Zora. You put yourself further back everytime you spam the ticket system with the same problem.

Sorry you lost your items. I would like to point out if you read the DDE mail, it does say it’s a unique mail, please take these items, don’t delete this you won’t get another! and such. I read mine. Sorry you didn’t read yours.

Okay… starting to get really frustrated over losing things in this game.

Guild: I am the Lizard Queen
Tag: Rhcp
Server: Stormbluff Isle

Issue: Spent 1k influence to queue a Research Architecture level 2. It took the 1k influence, started in the build queue but when I log in the next day it is gone and the influence is gone as well.

Please, please tell me this can be fixed… I’ve already lost items on the TP and now this, ugh.

Not sure if this fixed itself or was fixed, but it’s fixed for now! Thank you very much if there was some intervention

Our guild had something simular to this happen that solved itself a while back. The influence was gone, the research dropped out of our queue, but about a day and a half later we suddenly had it finished randomly. I suggest checking back after a couple days if anyone else has it happen. We had this occur before the forums were even up, and it just sort of resolved itself randomly.

When large numbers of people do an event, the event starts jipping people. We observed it happening with Kol when more people showed up consistantly, to the point the map chat was full of angry people getting nothing for doing it over and over.

Ampere.7319:

I agree with a lot of the points. What confuses me though is why people are so critical with this game in particular.

The Secret World, another MMO, was god awful for many reasons. But no one mentioned the story, and when they did they actually COMPLIMENTED the atmosphere.

Personally I complain about things that make me enjoy the game less because ANet actually cares about making a good game, and has a genuine interest in improving the playing experience. I’ve been waiting for GW2 since they stopped working on GW1 and I want it to be the best game it can be.

TSW, meawhile, is parent companied by EA. If you can present them with a profit loss graph, then you might get them to listen. :P

All of them are now. I had to throw out countless ones from my bank that used to NOT be soulbound, but becamse as such. Having them go back to account bound would be great! Please, please make them say they are account bound if it gets fixed though. The currant ones don’t even say Soulbound til you own them.

I really want to leave a wrong to rippen into evil, and strangle that Sylvari in the cooking area of Lion’s Arch.

Also.. that Norn lady that shouts about how she hasn’t taken leave of her senses every. single. time. I. walk. across. Hoelbrak. Can we please make her take leave of her vocal cords.

Rewards and drops are scaled to your level.

Wait, that makes no sense. It would incentivise players to finish zones only when they reach level 80. Wouldn’t it…?

Not really, considering the odds are not that great of it actually scaling to you. It’s only a chance you would get 80 items. The last time I saw an Anet employee give an actual ratio for it was in beta, and it wasn’t even a 50-50 chance. I won’t quote the exact odds they gave as it’s been too long for me to be sure, and the ratio may have changed since beta as well.

Aside from that, if you want the other reason for people not to wait, area clears tend to give you a nice chunk of ore, wood, or cloth. Why wait to help yourself craft?

So.. you have the portal stone.. did you use it? Did you double click it to go to the place and not see the mini at the vendor? You have to ‘buy’ it for free at the vendor just in case you haven’t checked the HoM by using the stone yet.

Maybe the mail with the Rytlock is there but never showed up as new. Sometimes my Hero’s Bands don’t show up as new mails.

Not anything remotely unique about the Rainbow Jellyfish skin whatsoever. What was the point of working for it in the HoM when my Blue Jellyfish is identical in every way, and all I had to do to get that one was swim around in Lion’s Arch. Highly disappointing.

DiogoSilva.7089:

More attention to detail than all of them, and most of all, truly a buddy, like all of them tried to be but failed at, because the other three did not have enough personal interaction with the player’s avatar, nor even enough depth to stretch that interaction without making it repetitive, and were discarded by the plot the moment they were not needed.

When I had that key option about Quinn, I kinda couldn’t care at all. But how I would love to have such a choice for my charr buddy!

That is a repeated problem with most of the side characters. They all feel like rushed through afterthoughts just shoved in there as filler. There’s no time allocated to develop any of them, so most of the characters scaresly even exist, and no one cares when they die.

Did you link your accounts properly? Do you lack a Hall of Monuments Portal Stone in your inventory when you make a new character? You should reply with more info, otherwise when you get an official reply, they’ll just be asking for more info.

Aside from that, I think Rytloc mini was from purchase of the Digital Deluxe. If you bought a standard edition, I don’t think you got one.

I’m over 400 sticks of butter since the change. I also have almost none of the crafting items for all other professions that the rampant butter frenzy has replaced. Please, please scale the excessive butter down and raise the crafting items like fangs back up in the loot bags. >.<

My guildie watched him do it. It worked for him. It might not have worked for you, but my guildie was staring at the jump when he did it, and was really irritated on VC about it. The thief was surprised about it. He said it did not work on any of the other mushrooms, but it did work for him on the hard to get to one.

I must say, my beta experience with the Norn personal story and general player character dialog was so off putting that i’ve not been able to bring myself to touch Norn story since release. I struggled to even justify making a Norn after that. It is by far the most cringe worthy and unpleasent dialog experience. Myself and my guildie looked forward to playing Norn prior to the beta experience. In fact her main was going to be a Norn, and the backstory of the Norn was how I got her interested in the game.

Beta experience with hearing my own character talk and pretty much wincing and wishing she was mute because the story would be far more enjoyable if she had absolutely no dialog though? Yeah.. left a pretty bad taste in my mouth. My friend.. she has yet to even make a Norn now. We were just that disappointed with the dialog for them.

While I do agree that there are way too many 2D characters that fall on basic cookie cutter personalities with no depth or individuality for the other races, for me the Norn player character dialog was just far, far worse than anything else.

Bobby, you told us during Beta to get further into the storyline and get back to you on how we felt about the writing after that during release. I can tell you that I personally love the Charr story now that i’ve had time to look further into it. I also like the Asura and Sylvari stories so far.

But when dialog can actually put you off of even playing the race because you know you’ll have to listen and see it and you find yourself thinking ‘Hmm, there is a skip button. Game would be more enjoyable if I just hit the skip button every time my Norn opens her mouth’. That.. is not really something that time is going to improve. First impression killed the Norns for me, personally.

The NPC Norns actually say things that I find amusing all the time, but the player character dialog for a Norn is duller than dishwater and really never seems to represent their spirit in any way but a super cornball slant.

Just so you know, they closed a past compilation thread like this on the necro, because they said some of the issues needed to be sent to different tech areas, so they don’t like the whole lump everything in a list format.

You might have better luck with this one if you make it a trait compilation instead since that is what you listed the most of, and then post the rest in seperate posts.

Myself and my guildies stayed there for 2 days just to get everyone through. I was the first to complete it.

I missed that jump about 15+ times in my efforts to help them test out ways to make it. Only successfully made it 3 times, and I was the first one to make it period! Talk about terrible odds. We rezzed the repeatly dead at the bottom while waiting for the last guildie to make it, confirming that everyone else severely struggled with that un-lowered mushroom.

I was also severely disappointed when a Thief gleefully told us he was able to use one of his abilities to effectively shadow step to it without having to make the jump. The mesmer couldn’t teleport. Why was the thief able to shadow step it?

My guess would be that it works like everything else (mob loot, puzzle chests, etc). They only scale sometimes. Sometimes you get items for the level range of the area.

Meneh.2954:

Yesterday we fought a champion Ettin up in the 25-40(?) Norn zone, before this champion there was 2 veteran ettins. We were a bit on the low end of people fighting it but the veteran ettins (and some smaller ones outside) respawned like 4 times during the champion fight.

We’ve been there, experienced that, haha. The veteran ettins in front of that champion spawn ridiculously fast. So fast, in fact, we had to fight one vet twice before even pulling the champ, because silly me. I actually thought I might get to wait for some of my cooldowns to come back up before pulling a champion.

I was helping two guildies doing the jumping puzzle Dark Reverie today, and the respawns of the Nightmare Court were beyond insane. Myself and one guildie stayed on the ground to rezz falling people, and the 3 veterans and two hound groups respawn nearly instantly at times, along with all of the shooting plant turrets. It was over the top insane, and far from the first time i’ve seen respawn rates through the roof in the game. Never have I seen worse than at the bottom of Dark Reverie though.

Just had the guild bank start telling me i’m not in a guild again. De-represented, went to re-represent. Was not able to. Went a couple places. Did not fix it.

Went to Lion’s Arch because that is how I fixed it the other times this has happened. Being in Lion’s Arch fixed it, even though there isn’t an overflow. Going to The Grove did not fix it. No idea why the location matters as neither was an overflow, but the Represent problem clearly is not fixed.

Edit: Happening again, 1 hour later.

Server: Maguuma
Guild: Hire A Hippo Assassin [HAHA]

As myself and my guildies want the WvW together, we have pretty much been unable to touch WvW after release. I got -5- queue pops.. but my guildie got none. It was highly frustraiting as we were heart questing and eventing together in the meantime.

As it stands right now, PVP has zero ability to be done in a social setting. You cannot group queue for SPVP, and since the WvW queue doesn’t even work like a real queue should, you also cannot have any guild fun in WvW either, which pretty much defies all those PVP related guild perks in the game.

It is not every recipe, either. You have no way of knowing which is and which is not until you buy them. This really needs to be fixed, one way or another. Making us waste karma to find out if we can give this to our crafting alts, is very poor.

I went through that zone the other day and encountered a couple different broken events, but have not been back tonight to see if they are still broken (Maguuma Server).
