Guild Wars 2

Then buy a royal terrace pass or a captain’s airship pass, i’m sure you’ve heard of them, can it be that hard to transfer them to different characters? they’re all account bound.

Dear Lord no, it would ruin the game, I like the model the way it is already, if they added this “VIP” crap I and a lot of other people wouldn’t bother to play the game anymore.

Well the game is virtually unplayable, I don’t enjoy rubber banding and an extreme delay with skills, seeing other people teleport everywhere, etc. hope it gets resolved soon.

Makes sense, i’m in michigan too, crapcast strikes again :/

I’ve been having continuous latency problems and terrible rubber banding this entire day today, I reset my modem, my router, etc, did everything imaginable on my end and it doesn’t seem to be my connection, youtube works fine, gw2 forums work fine, everything works fine BUT guild wars 2, it’s odd and it’s frustrating the huge delays i’m getting and it’s making the game much less enjoyable, is anyone else having this issue lately?

Still no solid answers here, what’s up? -_-

How is world association deemed? I’ve been transferred to my new server for about 2 months already and been playing wvw almost everyday, and i’m still associated with my old server? A lot of other people are having this same issue with no real concrete answers.

For winning 1st place in Season 2 WvW.

Not sure what happened with the server im on but it’s a snooze fest.

You no good snitch

Yeah, unfortunately ;/

Why do you think heal-o-tron has to be paid x amount of donations (coins silver-gold+) from players to start an event “boss blitz” to get achievements?

There’s a surplus of money in the economy and they’re really kittening people off by the way they’re handling things, trying to get rid of all of the gold in the economy (which will most likely never happen), nerfing champ bag loot, nerfing any profitable farming spot you can think of; what does that leave us with? dungeons? You can only do 1 path per day to get “rewarded” so they don’t encourage farming a single path in a dungeon, They DON’T want anyone to farm at all, pretty soon karka farming will be nerfed in some form or another, if it already isn’t nerfed, just saying it’s a pretty dam big turn off with all of the nerfs to farming in this game.

I Love this game, don’t get me wrong, I love the beautiful graphics and art, but they really need to make people happier and stop taking away what makes a lot of people play the game, to get loot and feel like they’re getting rewarded for their time.

I really like the decorations and the add ons you did this year for zephyr sanctum (labryinthine cliffs), it gives me slight hope that maybe someday we’ll see Cantha again =)

IF Cantha comes to the game, excuse my language but daamn If zephyr sanctum gives any indication as to what Cantha will look like, it’ll look so amazing…too bad the living story is going towards maguuma jungle :/ hate to wait so long for anything Cantha related; anyone else feel like Cantha would look freaking amazing judging by the decorations and environment in Labyrinthine Cliffs?

What they really need to do (this should actually go for all classes) is have all classes have a trait for +25% movement speed and remove the movement speed signets and replace them with something else, It’s a given that almost everyone runs a movement speed signet, because you run really freaking slow without it, for instance… warriors have a trait (run 25% faster while holding a melee weapon), why can’t other classes have that or something similar? I think the game is really holding people back from playing the builds they want to play just because they automatically lose 1 utility slot for movement speed buff.

All of the temp content T_T really ruined the game

It’s alright, yes a day ago when I was fighting with the tonic on and actually dealt and took damage it didn’t switch it off, it stayed on, but apparently today it’s totally different, and auto takes it off when you take or deal damage, it’s pretty ridiculous, and I agree they need to put it as an outfit like the mad kings, winters-day outfit, etc

Yeah I know, I don’t get it either…it was a really dumb move, a lot of people are frustrated

This thread isn’t for complaining about what they did with clothes being turned into tonics, it’s for me to complain about not being able to use them in combat anymore, although I’d love to wear them as skins which in turn would let me use them in combat, apparently that’s not happening.

I really enjoyed fighting in my designer hoodie last night, why the change all of the sudden -_-

I was using them in combat a day ago, like I said, and apparently I can still wield my weapon and use it, just not in combat.

Why aren’t we allowed to go in combat with them? I believe yesterday it was working and it’d let you go in combat with them, but you just couldn’t use skills 6-0, but you could use your weapon skills, why the change to not let you use it in combat at all? I don’t see the big deal, is it bugged or is this intentional?

Patch is usually around 12 pm PST, but who knows.

I like holy trinity better, I know gw2 is trying to do something different but this is just stupid since everyone and their mom has to play DPS to actually get somewhere. -_-

Yep shot down again, oh well XD I already lowered my expectations since it’s already a year and a half since release and all we got was 1 actual permanent pve map (south sun cove) since release.

Where does it say it’s confirmed? Can you link it please, because so far all i’ve seen is Arena net giving us the run around like usual….

Well, there’s our answer folks, my thread was merged here like everyone elses and no REAL answers yet again -_- this is disappointing

Because they completely ignore that thread.

A definitive yes.

Doesn’t matter when it comes out, we all just want an answer and not that up there ^

There’s a Cantha Thread that was created over a year ago, with no real answers, and with MANY people wanting Cantha in gw2, but thanks for your opinion.

Just wondering, if Cantha will ever come out sometime in the future? whether it’ll be a year from now, months, etc.

All I’ve seen is that it’s a “Possibility” and not a very good one and that was over a year ago, so is there any news on this topic?

I’m sure a lot of other players would like to know too, and i’m not asking for it to come out this year (the living story is no where near Cantha) but will we ever see Cantha in gw2? Tired of speculation and no real answers, a lot of people would be happy to see it again.

I thought it was supposed to come out this recent patch, is it not coming out?

Sanctum of Rall (SOR) is quite populated with PVE, we run tequatl the sunless world boss everyday (and ALWAYS kill it) as well as daily world boss/event trains, also [GSCH] runs weekly guild missions to help out the community to get commendations/rares, gold, etc. and they’re currently hosting the Great Tyrian Adventure (an event that is nearing completion but nontheless you can win some great prizes) also they’re raffling out legendaries and other great prizes for participation in the event. Although our World vs World has suffered greatly and we’re losing quite hard in it, our PVE is still in tact and isn’t going anywhere.

Please please oh please add Cantha into the guild wars 2 world this year, it looked really amazing in guild wars 1 and it’s a crime not to have it in guild wars 2.

Any updates on where the devs stand on this yet? We’re in the dark here and would love some answers or clues as to if you may add Cantha to the game

Specific Game Mode
<PvE>

Proposal Overview
<I play Ranger with longbow and something really bothers me about the #1 skill and #2 skill on the longbow for rangers, #1 skill does far more damage with auto attack than using your #2 skill, the #2 skill should do more burst damage rather than using your #1 skill and auto attacking 1 arrow at a time, I’m not sure if it’s just me but anywhere I go this seems to be the case; maybe increase the cool down slightly on the #2 skill but at least make it on par with auto attack damage, so you actually have incentive to use it while going solo.

Goal of Proposal
<Fixing the damage on the #2 skill, I noticed on mobs the auto attack from #1 skill does far more damage than your #2 skill for the longbow, I realize the #2 skill provides vulnerability but when you’re roaming out solo in PvE it doesn’t really give you any incentive to use your #2 skill at all to be honest.>

Proposal Functionality
<Just a simple fix, to promote using your skills more often on the ranger longbow rather than afk auto attacking mobs because auto attack seems to do more damage.>

Associated Risks
<Can’t really see any risks, this makes sense to me, but if it doesn’t to others I’d like to hear their opinion on it>

Thank you =)

It’s been over a week and people still don’t grasp the concept of it it seems, even with a lot of people in each of the 5 lanes people still somehow manage to fail the event, it’s ridiculous, I can never seem to get my “achievements” because it relies too much on others, even if I complete it myself, it’s just a waste of time seeing as 99% of the time there’s always 1 platform who fails.

Getting tired of the same old same old :/ honestly its pushing me away from the game knowing most of the future achievements will most likely rely heavily on others (Temporary ones to make it worse)

I’m going to be buying a 2nd copy of gw2 for my girlfriend and I’m not sure whats the best bang for my buck, buying it directly from the site says it costs $50 but includes an legacy skin(s), but if I buy it from amazon or another site it says it’s $40 but it doesn’t mention the legacy skins, do they both come with legacy skins or am I paying $10 extra on the gw2 site for the skins?

If they really want to make it fun and into an e-sport they need to somehow make it free for everyone to play SPVP and possibly refund people who bought the game for SPVP only if they so choose, because right now it’s not as big as it could be, it needs to be more readily available to more people, league does just that, I believe if gw2 wants to succeed as an e-sport and to be more fun, it needs to be free and have more players

My Warrior, in a mix of aetherblade heavy armor, ascalonian gauntlets, and a commando’s helm.

That’s about it, I’ve played since closed beta and haven’t had a good guild in a long time

Yes please implement player housing and guild halls/alliances, been waiting a long time for those to come out, and I believe it would have the biggest impact on the game, besides making new maps.

-Bump- Still in search of a guild

For some reason when I’m playing I’ll occasionally get a “network error” so abruptly it’ll close out my game and force me to log back into the game; I’m really afraid of starting dungeon or instance groups with people or even by myself due to this crap that’s happening.

I’m not sure if it’s an issue with Razer Game Booster or just a problem with guild wars 2.

Also every time I exit guild wars 2 when I’m done playing the pop-up about an error comes up on my screen and says to send a report to arena net (only happens when I use Razer Game Booster it seems)

I do not want to get rid of the program considering it gives me a massive boost in FPS and shorter load times, anyone else run into a similar issue? If it is even the program that’s causing the crashes to begin with?

I actually get over 60 fps normally now in small scale fights in WvW and dip to 30 in medium sized fights~ then in large fights I get 20+fps, I’ve started using razer game booster and got a nice increase in FPS (all on max settings) so it’s pretty legit. If you guys don’t use it already you should to gain some FPS

there really needs to be guild alliances + alliance chat, right now it’s really weak, especially the guild system, no declarable actual “guild wars” in a game called guild wars 2.

I’m looking for an active guild for WvW mainly, and maybe some PvE once in a while, with active buffs 24/7, I don’t mind 100% rep either.

Thanks for the responses, ultimately I upgraded to an intel i5 3570k with a new motherboard, I get 20-30 fps in wvw on max settings and sometimes dip to 15 in huge fights, its way better than my fx 4100 though, by far.

Ah, well the thing that’s bothering me about the I5 3570k is that it’s LGA 1155 and I heard that’s a dead “chipset” or something or will be if it’s not already, which means if I wanted to upgrade my CPU in the future I’d need a totally new MOBO?

I’m looking to upgrade some hardware parts to be able to get stable FPS in big zergs in WvW.

My specs right now:
-GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-S2 AM3+ AMD 760G Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
-AMD FX 4100 Quad Core (3.6ghz~)
-MSI Gaming N760 TF 2GD5/OC GeForce GTX 760 2GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 SLI Support Video Card
8GB DDR3 1333MHz RAM
550W PSU with +6 and +8 connectors for video card
1TB Seagate HDD 7200rpm

By default my video card pretty much has max settings on, but I’m sure my Motherboard and CPU are bottle-necking it considering my video card is meant for 3.0 not 2.0.

So I guess I’m looking for ideas on a good processor and perhaps motherboard. I’m currently looking at AMD FX 8350 and the i5 3570k, should I look elsewhere? or will it fit my needs?

Fermi.2409:

It’s because your CPU is rather weak.

Yes, it’s fine in other PVE zones, just not LA by the mystic forge area or some parts of Wvw (like Stonemist castle)

But even then if I upgraded it a lot of people complain of lag still even with i5’s and i7’s, so it’s turning me off into even considering upgrading.

Shift Focus.9083:

I get 9~ fps in LA by the mystic forge on max settings -_-

My specs:
AMD FX 4100
GTX 760 OC
8GB DDR3 RAM
550W PSU
1TB 7200 RPM HDD

The game just seems to be poorly optimized….

Maybe you shouldn’t run on max settings then? Just a thought.

Not all of the game’s graphic settings affect only the GPU, a number of them impact the CPU side of the equation as well.

By default my graphical settings are on max, I just bought the gtx 760 a few days ago and it runs fine on other games, gw2 seems to be sucky though.
