Guild Wars 2

I’m unlocking elite specs across all my characters and have noticed that on my thief, the character gets stuck to the ground a lot. By that I mean like as if he’s rooted to the ground, can use skills but not move. The only way out of it is if I do a dodge roll which wastes a dodge.
Could you please check why this is happening?

After messing around abit, this is how it happens. If a dev is interested, message me ingame and i’ll show you as well.
Right after the dodge roll 5secs into the video is when I got stuck and couldn’t move.
Try it if you like.

Hmm..ok, reading from this thread it seems that lot of people are not getting their refunds. Anet will lose $$$ if they refund and players lost trust without refund.
So…my suggestion. Like previously where the harvest tools were soul bound to 1 character and Anet had you go to a vendor to make it account bound. I think they might be better of with doing something like that which makes the possible to remove the account bound only from these few items to let those players sell them on TP. I know a lot people do not have some of these items and would love to get their hands on them at a cheaper price. Maybe give a cool off period to these players to sell like 2 weeks and after that, that’s it, can’t sell on TP anymore …….just a thought.

Hi, thanks for the info about the structures.
I didn’t mean to put it like for movement. I was really hoping that there would be something for speed boost once all specs were unlocked so I can move from Traveler runes to something else. I play a few alts and everytime I go back to guardian and look at the setup, feel there is a need for something there.

Hi, just want to check with you guys.
I ran TA Up and at last boss, the traps do not activate. Actually the traps don’t activate at all if the enemy is stationary. another eg is Teq during burn phase.
Is this designed this way so that only when a mob walks into it, then it activates?

Also with other classes having some form of speed boost when running around, after unlocking all my specs on guardian, I can’t believe it still doesn’t have a trait or signet like other classes to move faster.

Hiya, will this build work in PVE also? Mainly for HoT mobs.

Hi, after getting my necro with elite specs, i’ve decided to work on a mesmer doing HoT. This is mainly for PVE. I was wondering how you guys go about using the F5 skill. I saw a couple videos about it but the players were kinda doing 3 ports or constant well and i couldn’t figure out. Let me know if this is correct, when i have 3 clones/phantasms, i use F5 and then i have like 1 n half seconds to quick use the utility skills and then press F5 again to return back to all those utilities skills off cool down?

Also would really appreciate if someone has some gameplay videos of how they deal with mobs in HoT maps. Youtube vids i found were helpful but it was on a practice golem that is still.

Thank you in advance

Highly unlikely. I had bought 2x GW2 (one for self and other for niece) and 1x HOT. I have one of each profession and only play 1-2 hours daily, weekends abit more. with elite specs gated with hp, i’ve found myself just doing dailys and running in new maps with these characters just trying to unlock the elite specs. Only my necro is fully unlocked. Rest well, most times have to wait around for ppl to come help with champ at hp. Besides AB, other maps are just either empty or i find myself looking at lfg all the time. I didn’t actually pay to look at lfg to enjoy the game either.

Hi, i’m also getting heaps of this crashes now ever since that Raid patch to send error report to ArenaNet. I think they must be getting bombarded with these error reports. Interestingly, i look at some players who posted their error reports here, seem to be more crash for Nvidia cards. Any one with AMD cards having this crashes too?

I had a similar problem recently when I changed my graphic card. This might help if you have 2 PCI express port on your board. I had mistakenly place the new card in a 4x slot and saw 10-20 fps. After fiddling around abit, I removed the card and placed it in the 16x slot. Got heaps better fps after that.

Hi, I’ve noticed that when I leave a pve map and go to do some WvW or leave WvW and come back to PVE, my weapon specialization one gets removed from the slot by itself.
Is this happening to anyone else also? Also sometimes my last trait line for specialization get removed also and have to re-trait my character.

Same here, got it 2 days ago, was hoping i could start new profession today.

Hi everyone. My current graphics card a R9 280x is starting to make noise and sometimes goes to black screen during playing games. I want to get a card.

I can only afford either a GTX 960 or R9 380.

If anyone has these cards, could you please let me know how they perform with GW2? or which one I should get?

Also I have only used AMD cards before and I hear in guild that Nvidia cards are better for GW2. Is this correct?

Saw Optimus Prime during Teq event

Can login but BLTC is not loading or if loads then gives a weird message that I have to login. Waypoint to another map just spinning circle in bottom right and nothing happens.

Got back while being away for a little bit. Tried this event and can tell its pretty bad. Have to be really quick to tag mobs or waste silvers using way points only to find by the time you reach the mobs, they are dead.

That,s because you are bad. Don’t get me wrong but if you can’t tag mobs and always running too late at events, that’s on you. We did some testing my friends and I and on our try first maps we always got between 20 and 30 stacks. Hell even while I do the even as intented I also get 10+

Tried it just once at a peak time at Kessex when map was full of ppl. Mobs just die way to quick. And yeah i’m bad cos I use melee weapons.

Recently Teq maps have been quite laggy. Most of my issues are on that map.

Hi, I have started to play Guardian a lot more now and have a question for you about the sword attacks.
I have a Mesmer to level 80.
The first and second attacks from sword says its meant to hit 3 mobs in front of you for Guardian.
I kinda find this weird cos it seems like its a very acute angle you need to be in to hit 3. I often have to get them all together to hit all 3 or maybe get them in a line to hit all 3.
eg. attack seems to only hit 3 mobs if they are in the angle of the cone hit of skill one.
With Mesmer I did not have this problem.
I have also tried this in dungeons where bunch of mobs are pulled together.
To better explain I uploaded this to show what I mean. sword skill 1 and 2 will hit all in Mesmer. Guardian will only hit the one in front, left and right did not register a hit. Is the guardian designed this way?
Anyway im now to the profession, so if someone could explain would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, recently my niece was over at our place and liked the graphics and play style of GW2. Since there is a sale now, I would like to buy the game for her. My question is do I have to buy the game under my same email address which my account is in or shall I use her email address. She has a yahoo address which I really don’t trust to use to register the game with.

Also I am from Australia and in couple months will be changing ISP and moving to another provider. Can I change my login email address to new ISP provided email?

I emailed about this a while back. Can see still broken. Arenanet patches so many things, so why can’t they move this trait to a freaking event that actually works if fixing this event is going to take 10 years???

Maps kick me out, TP is lagging. Anyone else or just me?

Today I fought a few of these, the series of vines that come out of ground and hit you, there’s something changed with these. You can dodge and be ahead of next one, but it still hits you. Has the hit radius of this increased? I used to be able to dodge these and then ahead of if without getting hit. Don’t do that anymore. Still hits you regardless how ahead from those vines you are.

Has someone from Anet looked at this? On top of that a trait unlock is linked to this as well. You have great testers it seems.

How hard is it for a freaking dev to go and fix that stupid bugged quest about Devourer Queen. Always Sentinel Whiptail freaking stuck and not moving in that map. Better still if you’re too lazy to fix this crap, why not move this trait to some other event that actually works. This event has been brought up before and you’ve jack kitten about it.

I had this happening a few days back everytime I entered SW. Weird sound fps till like 5fps and then client would just close. Its not your CPU or VGA etc cos other places in the maps, game works fine. To me it seems like something to do with patch that has been downloaded by the client. Please try do a repair of the client, this fixed my issue.

Hi, I’m not sure if this is affecting anyone else or if its just me. I only just noticed this today so not sure if it was in a recent patch.
When I go to sell or buy anything thru trading post, it seems the price font has become really small. I have to really look hard at it to see what the price is and it kinda hurts my eyes after a while.

Is there someway to make them bigger?

Is this event bugged?

It goes from: The Pact are preparing to attack the Temple of Melandru.
To: Defend Gavbeorn’s Landing from invading Risen (80)
And then back to: The Pact are preparing to attack the Temple of Melandru.

This is even after we cleared all the mobs well within the time.
The escort just doesn’t trigger.

Hi.
Would like to know which ISP you use or which ISP is good for gaming if connecting from Oz?
I am with TPG but kinda feel lag in game.
Recently tested with a friend’s USB modem which is from Optus, I did not see the lag.
Could be time I was connected to play but not sure, but will test some more.
If you know of good ISP, please let me know.
Thanks.

Hi, since you are new and would be low on gold/silver. Not sure if you already know this. Make use of the WvW options such as going to Obsidian Sanctum to get to Lions Arch. You’ll save a fair bit of silver that way.

Also keep an eye on this link just incase you happen to be on a map that’s having a world boss. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World_boss

Most of all, have fun

I think ArenaNet is aware that this broken system will come under scrutiny when others that have not experienced this trait collecting system start with new characters. The red post is just a sidestep from this problem to fix it before more players join this thread and complain about it. This fix seems months away and I don’t understand why many in this thread are cheering. You are still stuck with your characters that don’t have all traits till then. They could have done atleast a simple fix in the coming weeks such as remove locks from Adept/Master and keep the grandmaster ones. They didn’t, but they saying to wait more. Anyway, to all of those that put in hardwork to come up with ideas of how this could have been fixed ( I know theres many in this thread), sorry to say but you wasted your time and effort coming up with these ideas. Meanwhile hype continues…“off the table, Out of the bag….Sooon”

Since yesterday this message is really annoying me. Disconnection at Teq. Disconnect midway through Vinewrath. Worst of all when you come back, you’re on a completely different map. Specially Vinewrath, as it puts you back on a map that has just started the bar.

On sale for 1850 gems. It’s a real good deal for those who hadn’t bought any gathering tools before from Gem Store. But there will be some who will be very disappointed for paying 1000 gems separately for each of 3 items previously.

When I look at this thread and for how long this is going on for, I thank god that ArenaNet only develops games and not medical equipment for hospitals.

Anyone know if there will be those 24hr sales this year in TP like last year?

Like those staff/dagger skins and axes/picks.

**I was trying to post this same question in the BLTP thread and it wouldn’t let me, anyone know why?

Tao.5096:

Oh no,
Another OP that woke up in December and realize changes made in September.
10/10 mad

Trait changes came in in April.

No one from Anet will come and shed any light on this or the ongoing thread about traits. This thread will either be merged or closed.

Few times I tried to unlock ones in WvW. I have managed to successfully do it on 1 but have difficulty on the other character. You have to sneak past mobs, roamers and freaking zergs to get there. Start assisting camp when all of a sudden smacked dead by some thief from another server. Waypoint and try to get back only to find that now that camp has been taken by other server. WTG Afail, love your work in how you placed unlocking traits. Think I’ll just go back to pve for now and come back to this bs later.

Hi, just have a question for players that do Teq regularly. If in North or South boat, there is a ranger or necro with pets/minions, will this case champs to appear?

I’ve seen some players with baseball caps. Found they were only given to players in beginning of GW2. Would love to have 1 of those.

Yeah I found walking to the right, as Lunar said and u can get back in.

Also, I hardly run fractals and the team I was with quit while in this giant dude tied to the wall. Well we had to hit it with a hammer. while running up, the guy carrying the hammer got blown the wind and fell, thus the hammer was stuck in mid air.
Everyone started jumping off cliff to get hammer but failed and jus quit.

well…. I think there are some traits locked behind story. Unless you got gold and skill points to unlock, you’re forced to do story.

Guildies helped me and showed me around Fractals. I think I did like 3 or 4 runs since I started. I had no clue and double clicked the Pristine Fractal Relics to Fractal Relics. There’s no hint on those things either that once you double click that’s it.
I am so kittened off at the moment cos I want to make Mawdrey and need to do some fractal to get them.

Myself and many others have brought this server name in below mentioned thread as having problems.
Its not fixed yet so always check IP before you go into those hardcore bosses (Teq especially).

Yo…..seems like a typo with 2013, in reality is meant to be 2018….so will be finished soon.

hmmm…so any dev got guts to take this challenge?
Well, they say " talk the talk and walk the walk", common should be someone out there to take this challenge?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Game-Updates-Traits/page/62#post4563621

Oh well, just so that someone does take this challenge, i’ll make it a little more interesting. From Mon-Fri, I have a job and therefore only get about 3 hours play, weekends, I admit I play a fair bit. so how does 5hrs Mon-Fri each day and weekends as long as you want sound.

OMG what have I asked. My bad, just remembered, ArenaNet’s policy is not to tell us anything.

Superior Sigil of Nerf
On weapon swap, automatically creates a thread in forum with map/event location and vents anger whenever sees players farming an event for ArenaNet to nerf.

Azzer.8137:

I for one like the new trait system a lot, it’s like in Gw1 where you had to go out in the world and use a signet of capture, but i guess most people today are entitled little idiots who don’t like to work for anything at all.

Also this is insane i know, but i know a way to get a traid withouth doing the event/boss/veteran/whatever.

ok here it comes…..

you can BUY it straight of a trainer! OMG!!!!! so insane!!! whaaaat so you are saying that i can actually just buy them instead of crying like a little kitten ?

Yes that is correct.

Interesting…..now can you do the something on 3 more new characters and comeback and post here??? There is a reason why people here are complaining for this to be unlocked account wide, but hey if you wallet talks, then wallet talks

Nah just do yak events with a group and kill mordrem that spawn on them and do the rubble event and kill those mordrem they all drop t5 t6 mats quite often.

Tested and confirmed, nice drops from mobs.

Hi everyone. I decided to create a warrior and give the profession a try.
I need some help regarding the issue I face with 2 weapon skills.
I find that 90% of the time Sword 2 skill and Greatsword 5 skill does not hit the mob.
No damage or anything to the mob’s health bar registered just in case if the numbers didn’t show.
Been very careful and I have been in range when using these skill.
Only times they have hit is when I have been in melee range. So if I got to say 1000/1100 range to mob and try greatsword 5 skill, I know for sure it will miss unless I get more closer.
Is there any issues with these skills?
