TP - Oranges

Will have to retry that. I believe I did and the interface was not allowing it since it wanted to fill the first order before trying the second one. Oranges themselves aren’t really the issue except it was taking forever to sell them off. Seemed to either be bug or bot, but wasn’t certain why someone would bot for oranges. Good gaming!

I thought about this but if its a bug I don’t want something out there to be blocking my buy orders, or if someone is creating a new macro to auto-place orders…. hence the question. But I appreciate the suggestion.

TP - Oranges

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

TheGrimm.5624

Here is one on the lighter side, anyone else having an issue filling the top buy order for oranges? Order previous day was 1 unit and every time it was filled it was still there and wouldn’t progress to the 1200 unit buy order below it. Last night it was a 2 unit buy order. It was a nice way play with the quaggan mail carrier but selling 300 oranges 2 units at a time gets a little old. Wondering if someone is getting a lot of free oranges out of it where they paid for only 2. Had a couple of guild mates try it as well and they were getting the same result. Anyone running into anything similar?

No QoL Loot changes

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheGrimm.5624

TheGrimm.5624

Having effectively killed 3 mice in the game via burning out the left click I would recommend a gaming mouse and setting up a double click option. This will also assist in the issue with pain and still allow you to unpack items in a manner that you enjoy.

Now why they made it so there are boxes in boxes in boxes, I am not certain. I am not certain less loot is the answer outside of getting rid of the junk loot and converting it to straight coin drops.

I no longer believe we will ever get an unpack all option since people might wait, as you are doing, to unpack too many at a time that there is no chance that they could hold all the unpacked items in their inventory. A system like this would have to apply a unlock 1 at a time and test space routine for each container and I could see this taking longer to wait for then a player using a double click routine. I too let things stack up and even with maxed out bag space you will run out of room even with just real loot items versus the junk items. Add to that the odds of the players losing the overflow loot if they can not clear the space for the excess items in their inventory and the negative impact which that would create even if it was the players own fault and it stacks even more against that type of feature.

I know its not the response you are looking for but would throw support to the mouse options people above had put in. Good gaming to you!

Is anyone currently running this trait and if so how did you test it out? I was experimenting with it while waiting for a match and was not seeing where the extra 350 condi was actually being applied. Maybe my test assumption was wrong, took a pet that’s F2 applies a condi and tested it against a practice target 3 times. Then applied the trait and did the same 3 tests same target. Damage numbers in log were all the same. Will retest tonight in case it was just too late in the night and brain was shutting down, but was curious if anyone was using the trait. Good hunting!

I don’t think they will be deactivated, but a guildy also linked a new type of one that was labelled that works only on toons that not level 80. Will have to see how the distinction will work, but makes me believe that the old ones might play a role in the new masteries.

I think you may actually be referring to an old type of tome:
You get 5 Tomes of Mentorship for completing the Victory or Death living story quest.

Thanks! That looks like it, I will have to check if they were doing any story instances. At the time we were all out in SilverWastes.

Ready Up next Friday: Desert Borderlands

in WvW

Posted by: TheGrimm.5624

TheGrimm.5624

First off, really excited about the new map. Watching the presentation there looks like there will be a lot of new areas to fight in and new types of fights. The diverse terrain looks like it will offer up a lot of new tactics and that will keep the fights fresh. The size of the map also looks great and the strategic positioning of objectives and the fact that they are all not the same is great.

I did have one concern, that will have to see how it plays out, and that’s the buff on the fire keep that grants a side immunity to fire. When first hearing of this I thought it would be to the fire from the lava pools versus player generated fire. If its player generated fire it would be kind of a one sided impact for some classes that are fire focused. Now granted lets see how often a side is able to keep that buff running when a fight is under way.

Good hunting!

In all seriousness, If I could toss them into the mystic forge or Break them down somehow for 1 Dragonite/emp/Blood Id be happy at this point.

Valid, or even a vendor that you could trade for a loot bag like in Silverwastes. Could create a little minigame where most of the bags have 4.95 silver but could contain items, mats, coins (up to a gold these are ascended after all) and a mix of the like. Would increase the value a bit more.

Tried the shaking setting, and setting the settings back to default. Would say its looking at the screen too long but I program and therefore am already used to long days of screen exposure on the same machine. Appreciate the doc thought but its that old joke, Doc my arm hurts when I do this, Doc: Don’t do that.

Hence the curiosity if anyone else ran into this and found something that helped them. Will keep adjusting settings. Anyone that’s played sports know that sometimes fun hurts.

Camera and Headaches

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

I know the answer is game less, but…

Anyone else out there experiencing headaches after the new camera changes? Thought it was something else but sadly seems to be tied to the game after the camera changes went into affect. Curious if anyone else was encountering this and if so did you find any setting changes that helped? I could be less stubborn and take an aspirin but when your body is telling you something is off you should pay some attention to it.

But this is kind of on the same level, if not bigger than the Permanent Hair Stylist Contract so it wouldn’t unprecedented to add it to the chest.

The New WvW Borderland

in WvW

Posted by: TheGrimm.5624

TheGrimm.5624

Really like the looks of the new map. We need more complexity on the maps not less. Choosing where to stand and fight should be important and you should be able to knockback people to their death. Love the potential for multiple levels. The biggest issue with the current borderlands are there are virtually no choke points. The openness of them leads to very little change in tactics which makes things stale. More value in holding objectives is a big plus and should be expanded upon. Towers that are actually choke points have been asked for a number of times. Would still like more details but excited so far.

[Suggestion] Putting a CAP on Currencies

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: TheGrimm.5624

TheGrimm.5624

I appreciate your idea but I am not a fan on a cap. Would much prefer that there are items to purchase with said currencies and potentially a way to convert currencies to other forms with some ratio of a conversion tax. The conversion tax could be fluid based on the number of units that ANet knows to exist. The real key is having items for purchase though that requires that currency. Take the bandit crests, to me the sink (example: dusty gear bag) works pretty well. Players can convert excess currency into a different object that might have value for them, the key is monitoring and making sure the items for purchase are of value to the player base.

I know some in my own guild that will hate this idea but I wouldn’t mind seeing PvP ranks act like WvW ranks where this is a series of ranks that repeat versus just maxing out. Since there is no added benefit in reaching max level (minus the finishers, which could be adjusted down the road) it would still give the impression of progression and add an extra fun factor to the game mode.
