I finished some of these dungeons in story mode already, do i have to do them again to unlock the reward track?
Yes, if you did them before the big feature patch, you’ll need to do them again to unlock the PvP tracks.
It used to help in PvP as it used to double your glory gain. You are correct it’s useless there now. TBH I would suggest using it on a wvw only char. Figures I say this when my main still has some 20 hours of the buff left and I used up all 14 of them on him lol….kicking myself now!
In the least the buff should only lose time while in WvW.
I agree about WvW, that’s where I’ve tended to use mine.
However, with PvP, it’s not quite completely useless, because magic find affects the PvP loot boxes. While it’s not worth playing PvP with the buff, it is worth giving the rewards to an alt with the buff.
Do any London retailers sell GW2 game cards?
I can’t say for certain about London, but I’ve seen them in WHSmiths in other parts of the country.
Knowing other people have a mass of duplicates makes me think they’ll handle it well… hopefully.
The only bummer is that it means there will be that many more unidentified dyes pouring into the trading post. Prices are going to pluuunge.
I wonder if the unidentified dyes are going account bound, like the PvP ones, to prevent the market being flooded. Of course that could just lead to the market being flooded with identified dyes…
Going forward it would be nice if they were a little more transparent about the appearance of minis so that you could tell if you liked/wanted the forged mini before the forging.
You can always look on dulfy.net – there’s generally a gallery and/or video of new minis fairly soon after they’re added.
lol. I forgot about the capes beastie!!
+1
On the subject of capes – the show always/show in town/show in combat areas options for capes and town clothes. I’ve always felt town clothes would be better if I could auto-switch to them when in town.
Her warband name will be Whetstone if she gets in, according to the wiki. Not sure what the source for that is, but I’ve seen the same name mentioned on forums elsewhere in the past, too.
I am also stuck on 14/15. Last one I need is the group miasma event or a daily, but since there was no daily today, I’m screwed. Unless these achievements are still attainable after tomorrow. :/ ANET, please. You need to tell us how long these events last.
I’m pretty sure they did tell us, about a year ago, and been following the same pattern ever since (apart from the odd exception like Halloween and Wintersday) – first part lasts 4 weeks, second part 2 weeks, with both ending on the same date. If the pattern holds, Escape From LA and its dailies will still be available to complete during Battle For LA, and both will end in 2 weeks.
Honestly you can’t destroy LA without telling us what those asuran portals in Coriolis Plaza are for.
They are being worked on still and inactive, I believe the NPC working on it says they they can’t tell us who told them to work on it or whats it for. So my question is when LA does get destroyed will these portals be destroyed as well?
I just brought those up on another thread, as my reason for why I believe Lion’s Arch will be rebuilt – I can’t see what they’re for other than planning ahead for expansions. Otherwise, I dread to think the waypoint cost from LA to Elona, or worse still, to Cantha.
I’m more curious if this is another one of those temporary things that lasts 2 weeks. I mean they burn LA to the ground and over the course of releases it get’s magically rebuilt?
Depends on what happens later, I guess… it’s not just scarlet’s attack that will hit LA, also whatever is it that she found under it (the probe that turned green). It can go either way, either with LA slowly rebuilding itself over the next several months (kinda like what happened to the statue in the first halloween event), or becoming the next Orr and another city becoming the main social hub.
I reckon it’ll be a bit of both, rebuild LA plus a link to a new expansion hub.
The area that has several unfinished asura gates looks to me like it is meant to allow LA to add new links as expansions come along (perhaps as a hub of hubs) – it seems an odd thing to have had in from the beginning if the plan was to destroy LA. More likely, LA will gradually rebuild, while a new Maguuma hub appears to the west, as I presume that is where season 2 will take us. Further west than Dominion of Winds, perhaps Isles of Janthir, with White Mantle and Mursaat making a reappearance.
Has anyone else had this problem (either authenticator failing this week, or the iOS version of the app remembering old keys), and had any luck resolving it?
Never mind, I’ve managed to solve it. It wasn’t a fault in the authenticator remembering old keys, it was simply the time was wrong. Turning off automatic clock syncing, then turning it back on to force the phone to re-sync its time appears to have solved the problem.
Hello, I recently had a problem where my mobile authenticator was not working correctly. I could log in with my username and password, but when it asked me for my authentication number it would kick me back to the log in screen saying that my username and password were invalid.
I originally thought this meant that my account had been hacked, so I got my password changed, but the problem persisted. After asking the support team to deactivate my authenticator I could log in as normal.
I would like to reactivate my authenticator as soon as possible but I am reluctant to do so now in case this problem happens again. I don’t know if it was that my authenticator app had gotten out of sync or something else but I believe it was the authenticator that was the problem and not my account details.
I’ve pretty much got the same problem. I’ve been using the authenticator since it was first availble, with no problems. However, when the patch rolled out this week (8th May), I immediately couldn’t log in any more. I’ve unlinked the authenticator to be able to log in, and now can’t re-link it, despite deleting and re-installing the application, trying to link via scanning the bar code or by typing in the key. I’ve tried asking a question on this, and been told it’s probably my phone remembering my original key despite deleting it, and they can’t help me (which doesn’t explain why it stopped working with the original key). The timing is also really suspicious – I logged in using the authenticator not long before the patch, and couldn’t log in immediately after.

Do you use the authenticator app? I started getting the same error about user name or password being invalid after the patch yesterday, but once I unlinked the authenticator, I could log in.
