Guild Wars 2

Join the club, as a Ranger I’m sick of seeing immune, obstructed, invulnerable and every other reason for not actually doing any damage while mobs continue to try to rip my face off.

Yeah they pretty much killed the crown pavilion just now.

As I play a Ranger I tend not to look at the combat log, I don’t need to be sent into a deep depression !

I get the same message, but only after I’ve sold 8-10 items, then I close the tp and start again and sell another 8-10 items.

So I don’t get it all the time, just sometimes it’s very buggy.

The “plan” is you buy it.

That’s why they keep filling our storage space with more and more junk we think we should be collecting.

It’s ok, they said we would get 2.

Read the patch notes.

My guess is we’ll have no option but to destroy them.

I got it 2 days ago as well, after being stuck on 12/13 for ages.

I think a massive problem is not being able to track which ones that have been added to the 13, the last one that counted for me was one I had done twice before, one that I thought I already had done and got the achievement.

In fact I only have 12 areas written down on my scrap of paper (Good move Anet), some I have done four time because I lost track of where I was.

There’s more to this game, well I never……………

Seriously, yes the rest of the game is dead as a dodo.

Well I was stuck on 12/13 for ages, just kept doing them as they came up, got my 13 from doing an area for the third time, an area I thought I had got a long ago.

As for the kill this or that, just kill anything, seems to have worked for me, I think I got some areas by not doing anything, just be there for the final reward, doesn’t seem to matter if you beat Scarlet or not.

More jumping puzzles………… wonderful.

(Actually I hate them, cheap frustrating content filler).

I don’t think there’s going to be any significant changes to the Ranger or pet, you will play the way Anet wants you to.

Master of long range, er no !

Actually………. I HATE jumping puzzles, hate them.

Still stuck at 12/13

12/13 STILL after another night of repeating maps, this is a terrible event.

Getting really bored with it now.

Commander tag has no place in pve, period. This is why i think commander tags should be earned with wvw leveling and progressing instead flat out 100g. Every cofp1 freak can buy commander tag, many did for sake of ego boost, while not even stepping into wvw.

Now same people are using those tags to rally farm zergs, which i doubt was intended purpouse of commander tag. Any pve coordination (like there is need for coordination in pve lol) can be done with use of chat, ,it is bad enough that there is zillion lousy commanders running in wvw with their tags undeserved, now there is bunch of them in pve too. This needs to be changed!

This guy sums up how I see commander tags, totally pointless in PVE, and what do they mean anyway, you can just buy them, in fact I could by a commander tag.

Yup stuck on 12/13, no idea what maps I’ve done, just have to keep doing them hoping I get lucky.

Most of my events out of about 30 have been in overflow, and I always join within seconds of the message coming up.

Just to add, the event is always running so long as you get in fast, even in overflow.

Same here, and lots of times I even get in late and still get it. Heck, at least one time I disconnected when joining an invasion, the game wouldn’t connect back in, had to close it, open it again, and when I logged in (thinking I would have to start asking for guildies for an active overflow), got into one that had the event going.

You must be lucky, whenever I disconnect I never get back in, and I usually disconnect in the last few minutes.

Very frustrating !!

Proper barrage, Ranger without a pet.

Ravenmorghane.9287:

If this game is really so bad then why are you people still playing ? It makes the forums less enjoyable for players like me who genuinely like the game.

Because it’s not as bad as_some of the other MMO’s out there at the moment.

I guess when something better gets released a fair few people will be off.

(Can’t believe this forum filter, had to put as_some, because I couldn’t put it with a space).

Good fun but it’s too long and it’s got tedious very quickly.

It’s a CPU, graphic card hungry game.

I have a top of the range PC, SLI, and my fans are flat out at times, pretty solid at 60fps (With everything up max), but drops to 30fps sometimes when I get in a big zerg.

A little bit of lag and skill delay on the odd occasion, not to often enough to concern me.

Ranger (only character).

1277 hours and 990 deaths. (.77 deaths per hour).

1 death every 77 minutes.

The game is at this very moment a chore and everything that was fun about it, became a grinding nightmare.

+1. Nothing more to add.

+ another +1

A mob only has to look at you or your pet for you to slow down to a crawl, the pet is awful, useless, and a burden.

Love my Ranger, HATE my pet.

Please read my post above yours..

Supposed to work like that maybe, doesn’t work like that in practice.

Vhaegar.6954:

I’m just curious as to what the most difficult bosses or mobs are in GW2.

I haven’t been playing for ages, but this is how I would sum up most fights when in a group.

1. Turn up
2. Spam dps skills
3. Avoid maybe one or two attacks, equip a few remove condition skills depending on mob.
4. Roll around if targeted
5. Spam dps skills
6. Die, get revived in a second by 2 or so people quickly tapping F.
7. Don’t say a word during the entire thing.
8. Faceroll to victory

I have been playing since the beta, and you have pretty much got it in one.

Make a new alt…… Boring same boring content and play style.
Jumping puzzles…. Hate them.
Community event……. What community.
Fractals and dungeons….. Rangers not welcome.
The gauntlet…… Quite fun.
Living world…….. Quite fun, but events are now too long and too much waiting.
The 8 orb thing……… Too hard for me.

Paulytnz.7619
“Try making a new alt and going to areas a lot higher level than you are. You will notice things get hard. 1st your attacks will glance every hit, you will be 1 hit eventually. Not only that but mobs seem to notice and chase you from halfway across the map! I’m serious, you enter an area and you will have every mob you can see chase you right away!”

Seriously you class that as fun ?

Read the patch notes, you will get a second birthday present.

A mob only has to look at you or your pet for you to slow down to a crawl, the pet is awful, useless, and a burden.

Love my Ranger, HATE my pet.

Yes the time spent waiting is very annoying, even more so if your waiting for a particular area, you could wait for hours.

Most of my events out of about 30 have been in overflow, and I always join within seconds of the message coming up.

Just to add, the event is always running so long as you get in fast, even in overflow.

Plenty of chests (Have over 250 of them) no keys, I guess they want you to buy them just to get the rubbish that’s inside.

Vayne.8563:

Actually using macros isn’t against the TOS. As long as it’s one keystroke per macro.

In other words you could make a macro to repeatedly hit F and that wouldn’t be against the TOS.

I think you’ll find a macro is a series of events, or more that one keystroke, any series of keystrokes that are repeated over and over.

You could make a macro to repeatedly hit “f”, in fact I repeatly hit the “f” key manually to make sure I pick up all the loot.

But a macro in it’s true meaning I believe would be against the TOS.

Orangensaft.7139:

there are 2 issues i think

1) the screen that Solid Gold posted which is really being stuck in a waypoint
it sometimes happens when you port while you jump and sometimes randomly
i think if you just port 1 more time to the same waypoint that should fix it usually

2) sometimes for example whenyou port to LA your camera will stay at the waypoint for some time until everything has loaded
but on the minimap you can see that your character is moving and you can for example walk to the trait npcs and change traits if you aim with the minimap

I was jumping as I was stuck in the wp trying to get out, I wasn’t jumping as I entered the wp.

Don’t matter what I did I couldn’t get out, until I wp’d again (To the same wp).

It’s only JUST started happening to me, never had it before.

Works in Chrome fine…….

I just hope it’s ArenaNet having a laugh, I don’t want to be doing that garbage.

If I did I’d play “Leisure Suit Larry”.

I don’t like it when they regain full health, I don’t like them going invulnerable when they feel like it while they continue to rip your face off either.

And I don’t like the invasion mobs when they are all invulnerable.

Yup same here…………….

Stuck, can’t get out of the waypoint, can jump up and down, easily cured by waypointing out but of course wasted gold.

10/13 here, been doing 3 or 4 invasions every night for 7 days.

No sign of it ever reaching 13/13, seem to get the same maps all the time, and I play at the same time everyday.

Wouldn’t be so bad but it’s up to an hour every time, with the waiting between events.
Leave your PC for 10 minutes and chances are you’ll miss an area you need.

If this finishes on the 3rd of September I can’t see me doing it.

I hope they don’t do stuff like this again.

“If you play at the same time every day, you will see all 13 maps by the end of the Clockwork Chaos release.”……………….. Yeah right.

I hope they don’t do stuff like this again.

I pick out the easiest and shortest, still feels like a job !

I have no idea where I am with any of it, I did keep a list on a bit of paper but I don’t know which maps counted as being successful or not.

So I will have to keep doing maps until I get lucky.

We have records for everything else, why not this ?

Win or lose with ArenaNet, it’s all win win.

Nobody loses, can’t have losers in this day and age, even losers get the reward.

I guess ArenaNet are trying to make GW2 the MMO that’s all thing’s to everybody.

It’s getting like sports day at school, there are no losers.

Solid Gold.9310:

Crashed 3 times in the last few minutes of an invasion event, out of about 12 I’ve been in.

NEVER had any crashes before.

Well according to most people here that is clearly your fault, not Anet’s.

Well yes of course there will be many people that will say “I’ve never crashed it’s your connection/PC” or whatever.

However it is seriously the only time I’ve ever had any crashes to the send report to ArenaNet message.

20Meg connection 12ms ping Top of the range PC.

Not really much I can do.

Well I’ve crashed to desktop on 3 occasions in the last few minutes of an invasion, and no when you reconnect you won’t be back in the invasion event and you won’t get any rewards or zone achievement.

Crashed 3 times in the last few minutes of an invasion event, out of about 12 I’ve been in.

NEVER had any crashes before.

A 45 minute event and we get kicked in the last few minutes.

Get your act together ArenaNet, nobody wants to waste their time like this.

Just disconnected again withing the last 7 minutes of an eveasion event, getting bored with it now.

As a Ranger, Dual Wield Rapiers.

Or any proper duel wield weapons, katana’s, sabres, cutlass’s even single handed sword.

Disconnected to “send error report” from Frostegorge Sound last night 5 seconds before completing the invasion event successfully, very annoying.

And I have never had problems with disconnects in the past.

Seem to be wasting hours waiting for invasion events to start, the getting disconnected in the last few seconds.

Now I’m going to be all on edge during an invasion event thinking I’m going to disconnect any second, and all that time and effort will be wasted.

I think it’s a good idea.

Yeah you must join within 10 minutes of the invasion starting, doesn’t matter if your put in overflow, if it’s within that 10 minutes of the message it should still take place.

And if it pops up “Do you want to move to the main map” (or whatever it says) don’t except it, stay where you are, otherwise you could be dumped out of the invasion event.
