Is the Random loot set in loot bag/box/etc when I get it or Random when I open it?
Does magic find work when getting the loot bag/box/etc or only when I open it?
Please describe what the Activity is, right now you have to travel to Lion’s Arch and talk to some one just to find out. Some mini games I like, some I don’t but, having to travel just to find out, is a big waste of time. Maybe add this info to the Herold’s in other major cities.
I’ve solo’ed P1 in AC in story mode but, received no Dungeon Tokens?
Chests for Puzzles are still dropping Support Tokens.
It’s not the players, it’s the game! Players go where the loot is, Anet knows this very well.
Murphy’s Law – if you need escort missions you get champions, if you need champions you get escort missions. It’s just another well designed event, you have no idea who the champions are or which ones you’ve defeated already. Wait until you just need to defeat one more champion and you keep get the some one over and over.
If your going to have a timed event, then show us a timer!
There’s not even a count down to the start of the event, you have no idea if your next or third in the que!
Agree the two week content is too much too soon.
I didn’t even know the Queen’s Gauntlet events & Queen’s Jubilee events were related and expected Anet to add the other events next week.
Well, all I can say is I’m confused by this new achievement system, I wish Anet would more clearly state what is needed to complete an achievement and eliminate tiers, just show total the number needed vs tier 3 of 5.
Last night I got my Daily, Monthly, Queen’s Jubilee Completion & Queen’s Gauntlet awards all at the same time after wining a Gauntlet battle.
I got the Queen’s Jubilee Completionist 16 of 16 complete but,
- Balloon Tower Tourist still shows 23/30
- Champion of the Crown still shows 60/100
All other events complete.
What to do next, I don’t want the award if I didn’t earn it!
This is something Anet should post on the Wiki or make it an Achievement.
How about a Mini – Me, mini copy of player character!
Add:
- Rune of perplexity 4th piece bonus of this rune, applies confusion on yourself.
- Balloon Tower will sometimes transport the player when trying to open the chest.
- Balloon Tower Quests will sometimes change (Escort mission to Kill Champion,
timer?) before being completed. - Gate travel is only about 10% cheaper, not 50%, since the election.
This has been the buggiest release yet! Looks like this two week content release schedule is too much for the programers too!

Any recipe that uses Lodestones should not be used for temporary items, what was Anet thinking? This is not the way to improve crafting.
How will one get Watchwork Sprockets after the event ends?
I keep seeing more and more Mini’s in the Queen’s Gambit events, I doubt this is helping everyone’s frame rates.
I’m seeing Chinese text for items when looting chests in Queens events tonight!
Agree! Looks like more of the sloppy programing in these events.
Buggy, poorly implemented, even Duffy.net calls it a work in progress!
A lot of Queens Jubilee content is buggy (Runes, Sigils, Dailies can’t give the right info, etc, etc.), very very sloppy. I think this 2 week content is wearing on the developers, as well as the players.
Any one know what the Sigil of Bursting does? Description is Wrong!
Yes, this 2 week content is getting old and I, like many feel burnt out. I wonder how this effects the programers? All this effort for limited content, would rather see an announcement of a real Expansion pack with expanded content that I can do at my own pace and not on some 2 week limit.
How are you supposed to make gold? I’ve been trying to do Orr events but I die multiple times on them. I’ve got a little over 1g right now and I don’t know how long it’s going to last.
If your having problems in Orr with a level 80 character you likely need to upgrade your armor and weapons. Try teaming up with some one. Switch to a lower level area 60-70 and farm resources and do events there until you have enough gold to upgrade! Right now you can make 8-10 silver for any of the mini games running in the living story events currently running.
I don’t even get a login, when launching GW2, the login screen shows a red message, “Connection Error(s) detected – Retrying!” message, NA West Coast!
How about random encounters & events in Dungeons vs. killing off rewards for repeating runs? It’s not our fault they didn’t design better Dungeons! Some of the paths just take too long, time is a key issue, why doesn’t Anet understand this.
I hope they implement mini-dungeons soon!
And do you actually NEED these rewards to play the game?
If not I would say the issue is non-existent.
Yes, because Anet is making this two week content the only things in the game that gives repeatable rewards! If a min-game gives rewards again and gains but, killing a champion or doing a dungeon twice doesn’t, what are you going to do? Players go where the rewards are!
It seems Anet is limiting rewards for everything to one a day, champions, Dungeons, etc. leaving only min-games in their two week living content as the only things that give repeatable rewards!
I’m not sure this is a good thing. I want new content that’s more than a jumping puzzle or forced to do a mini game 15 times every week. How about events that span multiple maps, some new level 80 non Orr maps, or some expanded role playing!
GW2 was play it your way is now in danger of becoming play it our way or else, no rewards!
Agree, a big risk of burnout!
- make mini-games count as part of daily
- looking forward to the mini-dungeons.
Would really like to see a new level 80 non-Orr map to explore!
I would recommend getting your thief to 80 first, then use crafting to speed up the leveling for your Mesmer and your thief as your resource and gold farmer. You really need a level 80 character to farm events/resources in Orr to get the tier 6 materials.
Achievement Agent of Entropy
It still says 1/200 repeated 24 times and still not complete, what does it take to complete this Achievement?
Got an item in one of the AP chests – Experience Scroll – Instant 1-20 leveling!
Never heard of anything like that, is there a list some where of these rare unknown items?
I played across multiple maps and encountered other players just about every where on Ehmry Bay.
I suck at jumping puzzles and really, really hate timed jumping puzzles. I find them about as much fun as a root canal!
Agree, this was just dumb, why have a Solo story if you need a group to complete it!
I completed crafting in cooking a long time ago but, still keep finding new recipes I don’t know and find consumables very useful. I wish crafting was like that in other areas. I would really like to see more useful Consumables like the ones in the following guide.
http://dulfy.net/2013/01/16/gw2-useful-and-fun-consumables-guide/
Well I finally got it, turns out the video I saw on Tribulation Caverns was either old or just wrong, on the starting location, went back and completed it, got the Shiverpeak Explorer!
Thanks but, Ulukk’s Hunger wasn’t it, I’m going back to each of the Jumping Puzzles.
Never did the Tribulation Caverns puzzle in Dredgehaunt Cliffs and it’s now closed off, could that be it?
Places
- Forsaken Hall
- Tail of the Serpent
- Lair of the Coil
- Cragstead area
- DeMolish Post
- Ulukk’s Hunge
Puzzles
- Shamans Rookery
- King Jalis’s Refuge
- Griffonrook Run
- Coddler’s Cove
- Only Zuhl
- Shattered Ice Ruins
- Tribulation Caverns (closed off, not done)
This one is really driving me crazzzzzzzzzzy.

Sola, did you get Griffinrook Run in Lorner’s Pass? That is a bit hard to find unless you know where to dive down to.
The way I figured out what I was missing was I made a list of everything in each map on notepad and printed it out and then compared it to each map. Flipping back and forth on screens was too hard for me to keep track of what I was missing. I just checked things off as I went and found it was DeMolish Post and Forsaken Halls I needed to complete.
Never completed the Griffinrook Run puzzle (hate timed puzzles) but, did completed one of the Kite runs there. I don’t seem to be missing anything
Well I’ve done every place listed, completed the JP’s in this thread and still at 174/175, 100% map complete on 2 characters so that should exclude any area with WP’s, POI’s & SP’s, any other ideas?
- Forsaken Hall
- Tail of the Serpent
- Lair of the Coil
- Cragstead area
- DeMolish Post
Press M to bring up the map, then mouse over the Map Names, it should show you if that map is 100% complete.
All class are the same starting out, it’s not until your character is level 50th that you notice the difference, then it’s reaching level 80 and then refining/re-defining your character skill sets to match your play style and lastly finding the right gear to maximize your skills.
Is there a list of Celestial Gear recipes? Can the new Celestial items be learned or an require unlock with specific recipes?
I doubt there is anything but some of the skins, that you won’t be able to get at another time. You can still buy most stuff from the Halloween event from last year, get to level 80 first, do what you find fun!
Agree, exploring is one thing I really enjoy in the game.
Not being prude, I am doing the achievements.
But, doesn’t this send the wrong message about drinking, as for some its not a game at all.
An alternate achievement might be in better socially acceptable to some.
I thought about it when Keg Brawls came out and was like huh, ok.
But 2 achievements chained together with multiple achievement points attached to a drinking game….I don’t know
Right, drinking is bad, ok so let’s ban fighting & killing their bad too! Maybe you would just be happy with just a jumping game!
Surprised, I didn’t think we would see a new class, until there was an Official Expansion pack.
Do you think we will see an Expansion pack early next year?
4 Characters
- Human Thief
- Human Mesmer
- Human Elementalist
- Norn Guardian
Likely won’t create any more until there are some new classes.
They should just nuke SouthSun Cove altogether and start over. No one goes there and the events don’t scale to the number of players, most can’t be solo’ed any more.
It seems anytime I mention GW2 to some one they tell me yea but, the skills are so boring? GW2 characters do seem to have fewer skills than other MMO’s but, do we really need 10 rows of skill sets?
The new endgame is now Achievement Points, what else you going do with multiple level 80 characters.
I’ve gotten almost a 800 Honor Tokens so far in Achievement Reward Chests. Anyone else getting these? Funny, I didn’t need any Honor Tokens, I already had 500+, anyone getting Dungeon Tokens, those I could use.
