Guild Wars 2

We are nearing the 2 year mark, I think it’s time to rid the world of ‘Junk’ items. Nobody wants them, nobody saves them for anything, no one aspires to have a stack of ‘Broken Lockpicks,’ and if you’re saving up all that junk to sell and buy your Legendary with, more power to you and good luck on that never-ending quest.

In all seriousness though, I’d be happy saving the clicks it takes me to sell or delete them. Just my thoughts though.

Can’t speak for everyone but for some it might be the ability to switch the stat of the weapon whenever out of combat. It’s almost like buying 1 of every stat combo for a weapon without them all taking up your inventory space.

I will +1 the OPs suggestion, not because I would use that (all my toons are 80) but because its still a good idea.

I would like to add this suggestion: I would like a way to monitor different LFG categories at the same time, rather than having to click around. Kind of like a ‘favorites’ for the LFG tool. So I could checkmark, say, Ascalon Catacombs and Fractals 40+, and be able to watch the posts that come up under them at the same time.

Apparently I am alone in this annoyance. Ah well, won’t keep me from playing!

Another post mentioned that changing maps fixed the problem.

This may be working as intended and not a bug per-say, but still super annoying. After completing a fractal the ‘ready up’ pop-up appears. If you happen to be typing in chat, it automatically deselects the chat box and anything you hit after that starts opening various panels and such. For fast typers like myself, and depending on your key binds, this can open up several panels. “good job” would open my guild panel, open, close, then open again my TP and finally open the WvW panel.

A fix for this, if possible, would be great, but I understand it would be low on the to-do list. Thanks for reading.

Living story will be paused after the 4th release and guess what time is that… end of august, meaning Guild Wars 2’s anniversary.

The Living story patch-skip means Anet is releasing something else for the 2 years anniversary so the possiblity of SAB returning is quite big by this point.

I had not yet heard of this ‘pause’ after the 4th release. I can only hope it’s true and that SAB will return!

Maybe it’s still “ultra-challenging” to the majority of the player base? It’s mostly casuals that make up the GW playerbase, you know.

Could be. Anyone think that the LS achievements have been challenging, and if so, what made them that?

It seems to me that the term “ultra-challenging achievements” has been used to describe the LS2 Story Journal Achievements several times now, but I question whether or not these have been “ultra-challenging.” When they first said this, I was thinking something along the lines of Liadri or at least any of the 3rd tier gauntlet fights. So far the achievements have been very casual and if there’s any difficulty at all its more in the realm of how to do it rather than actually doing it (e.g. On Swift Wings post bug fix). Of course this is just my opinion.

To date (again, in my opinion) the only “ultra-challenging achievements” as far as solo content or at least individual skill content:

-Super Adventure Box: Tribulation Mode
-Tier 4 of the candidate trials from Support Evon Gnashblade/Ellen Kiel category
-Achievements associated with Tier 3 fights from The Queen’s Gauntlet

What would be on your list?

I was able to get the achieve after the patch. I went in solo.

For me (might be different each time) there were 2 NPC’s just outside the cave and south, 1 in the tower right there as well. Farther south near another cave were 2 more, then straight down the hill in the river was 1, and follow the river north through the rocks the 7th. I didn’t bother killing anything unless the NPC was attacking it so that I could then talk to the NPC. The achieve popped right when I talked to the 7th.

Hope that helps.

I’m sure it would keep those who want every skin pretty busy.

16 weapons (I don’t think they ever came out with underwater SAB weapons) x 3 color choices = 48 skins. I’m not one of those people though. I do enjoy standing someplace crowded and quickly changing my GS between the 3 colors. Looks like a flashing neon sign

I would also assume that since the SAB still exist, though not playable, in Rata Sum, there is plans for a comeback.

Malediktus.9250:

I hope it comes back. Otherwise I feel cheated with my infinite lives coin.

That’s a good point. While I personally felt I needed that coin just to make it through W2 and Trib Mode achievements, I also bought it on the assumption that I would be able to use it in the future on Worlds 3 and 4.

VOLTCIEAGE.3029:

there should be 4 days per month when sab opens and you can play and have week sab achis like speedrun this or that on turb mode in 20 min etc

I wouldn’t be opposed to opening up the old worlds again with a few new achievements either. Good idea. Simple to implement in the meantime while they CONTINUE TO WORK ON WORLD 3 (pretty please).

Anmida.4058:

I have always wondered why did SAB not remain a permanent content. It seemed like the optimal choice to be.

I actually didn’t mind the temporary status of SAB, it made it more exciting when it came out a 2nd time. 5 months after W2, I started getting excited again expecting W3 to show, but no luck. Then again in April which was the 1 year mark from the first release, no luck. Now as we near September, 1 year from the 2nd release, I’m hoping for good luck!

In April ‘13 we were introduced to an extremely fun side game known as Super Adventure Box. 5 months later, SAB returned with World 2 and the rather difficult Tribulation Mode. Now, 11 months after the last release of SAB I find myself watching Youtube videos and reminiscing on all the great time’s I had with friends in the SAB. As of the last release, it seemed as though there were 4 Worlds in total, making me think we are not yet done with the SAB. What do you think? I suspect that if we don’t see SAB return within the next 2 months it won’t be until 2015 that it might appear again due to the usual holiday events of the Mad King and Wintersday, October – January. I sincerely hope that even though Anet has been busy with LS1 and now LS2 there is still a small team plugging away at Super Adventure Box World 3.

So Anet, the question is will SAB return? A simple “yes” or “no” will do and if the answer is yes I won’t be upset about some sort of timeline either.

For those of you who have forgotten or joined the game in the last year and were not able to experience the awesomeness of SAB: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-AluYe57Y4

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

(The first time I made it, it was a perfect dive, but I forgot to put on the goggles.)

Hehe, I can only imagine….gonna make it, gonna make it, MADE IT….wait a minute…ARGHHH!

This was enlightening…I thought the middle orb was Tyria as we know it in GW2 and the other orbs represented GW3, GW4, GW5, etc. :P Joking.

Just to make sure, you have hit the Replay Episode button in the My Story section of the Hero Panel, correct?

I hope there is a fix for this soon. I feel I’m being punished for not being able to log in until 2 days after the update! Hate having to see that 1 uncompleted achievement.

Yes, you have to land in the pool of water at the bottom. I failed twice, hitting just short of the water. Then failed a 3rd time when I hit a rock in the water and died. Finally on the 4th try I got it, landing in the water and surviving the fall. It really helps if you can hit swiftness before you put the goggles on. Good luck!

I think the wardrobe system is great. It makes it much easier to plan an armor set to wear and then go find the pieces to use.

I would like to see a bit more options for sorting however. It would be nice to have the major categories in one group to sort by. For example, dungeon armor, karma armor, cultural armor, etc. Also for weapons. I know you can somewhat get around this with the search, but rather than it breaking down each piece under its respective type, it would just show it all on one line. Same for the weapons as well.

Do you think past items you’ve soulbound but since deleted will be available as skins in the new wardrobe?

For example, my first set of Level 80 Exotics was AC Heavy Dungeon Armor, but has long since been deleted or reskined. I hope that somehow the system can remember that and I’ll be able to see that armor again.

All of the above?

Just have to know where to go.

I guess this is a known issue, but would still like to know if it is supposed to boost karma 100% or not.

All,
Be careful if you intend to use your birthday booster for karma gain. After completing a FotM level 20 (personal level 50), according to the calculation I should have received a base karma of 8000. I used a birthday booster and 50% karma boost as well. So, in theory, I should have received at a minimum 20,000 karma (not including guild 10% and my account karma). I received 14,000 karma, which would be consistent with the other boosts not including the 100% birthday ( 50% boost, 15% guild, 10% account = 75% boost).

Noticing this, I looked at the tool tips. On the Birthday Booster item it says: “Double-click to gain a 24-hour buff that grants a 100% boost to magic find, karma gain, WvW rank gain, PvP glory gain, experience from kills, and gold from kills.” However, on the boost tool-tip on the buff/conditions area it says: “100% boost to magic find, WvW rank gain, PvP glory gain, experince from kills, and gold from kills.” So, in the item tip it has karma, but once consumed the buff tip drops it.

So, I see several options as to why here:
1: Using the 50% karma boost negated the ability to use the 100% birthday boost (i.e., they don’t stack).
2: The tool-tip for the item is incorrectly showing that it gives 100% karma gain, when no such boost is intended.
3: The tool-tip for the buff incorrectly not showing the 100% karma and is not giving 100% karma gain.

I used the Birthday Bonus specifically for karma farming on an alt that I would only karma farm on so the buff wouldn’t burn down on my main character. I would really appreciate an answer to this so I know if I should use my alt for this purpose or not.

Thanks!
