3. Devs storm EotM (maybe we’ll show some secret spots)

Please go storm a keep with an invunerable Siegecrusher in it and then tell me if thats a bug or not, thanks in advance.

Its been delayed due to needing to get leaderboards ready for wvw ranks and while they figure out a way to show your rank to players on your own server…

38 – Often after solo capping a camp you cannot claim it, also sometimes it gives you the option to claim it which you then click but it still does not claim it.

39 – Siegecrusher invunerable in lords room EOTM

40 – Many bridges in WvW and nearly all bridges in EOTM do not allow shadowsteps or infiltrator arrow to be used, you just stay in the same place.

41 – Somtimes when using wurm holes in EOTM you become stuck on the other side, using /dance is one way of fixing this.

42 – Shadowstepping in one of the small buildings in the south west borderland camp can result in you going under the terrain and swimming under the camp.

43 – Somtimes all weapon and utility skills become unusable in EOTM, getting downed fixes this.

44 – Warriors are always running away at great speed, this must be a bug, I thought Warriors were a class that stand and fight to the death. To be clear I dont even blame the Warrriors, they are just using their given abilitys, just somone got the whole warrior concept wrong on the drawingboard.

Ok so let me just get this straight, Dogwhisper wants to hear a Cat Roar, ok yeah I got it.

My signature shows you that I have wanted HoH since day one beta.

Did you write it in invisible ink? :P

Blue has been outnumbered on every overflow for days now, and funnily enough its mostly Red with the biggest zergs, the supposed losing teams from wvw, seems to me that since they lose wvw they then all pile into EOTM and completly dominate with numbers. I think the system for choosing Red Blue and Green needs to be changed to be much more random, so that there will be a balance in numbers per team, cos right now it is way out of wack.

The only reason your servers winning is because a lot of players on Desolation go in EoTM instead or doing the LA event, I do my dailys in EoTM now because its much easier than going into a outmanned wvw map everyday.

Enjoy your win

What win? we came second last week hence being blue right now, and are currently 3rd place in our current match up, confused much?

Chris Whiteside.6102:

I would like us to start of by listing the top three things we would like to see evolved in Fractal Design. Idea proposals can come after this stage.

Chris

1) Weapon skins purchasable with relics
2) Weapon skins purchasable with relics
3) Weapon skins purchasable with relics

Simply this, nothing else will get me back into fractals (472 complete)

I think part of the issue is the way in the way the teams are put together, when you start a match and are outnumbered a lot of people just quit, and it never really gets any better on that overflow, one color will just dominate.
They need to remove the current system and just add people to each color keeping each side with the same numbers, as they do in spvp hotjoin. If the teams are balanced for amounts of players less people will quit and EOTM will be more enjoyable.

Radian.2478:

EoTM (just like WvW) has so much to do with the number of players. I just can’t remember any situations where the winning server had less number of players than the others. The game, to me, is most fun when there’s a fair balance of players because then skill is more important. I believe EoTM would be better if joining it was partially randomized. Maybe have something like making the game put you on the side that has the least number of players upon logging on. If sides have equal players, then use a random number generator. If you want to play with a buddy, it should just put you on the same side as them if you are partied up. It could also make guilds have the same side too. It’d balance out anyway because of the algorithm.

Exactly, it should be handled like hotjoin spvp, just throw you into the side that needs numbers.

Blue has been outnumbered on every overflow for days now, and funnily enough its mostly Red with the biggest zergs, the supposed losing teams from wvw, seems to me that since they lose wvw they then all pile into EOTM and completly dominate with numbers. I think the system for choosing Red Blue and Green needs to be changed to be much more random, so that there will be a balance in numbers per team, cos right now it is way out of wack.

I have 32k emp shards stored right now and I’m getting easily 500+ a day in EOTM, its starting to annoy me that I am just drowning in these mats.

Siegecrusher is still invunerable to attacks in every keep, why is this bug still in the game after 2 weeks? do devs even play EOTM?, please fix.

Has happened to me also but its an extremely rare bug, at least for me. I expect this would be hard for them to recreate and find a fix for, but yeah its an old bug.

Any news on when this bug will be fixed? its been 2 weeks now and it is quite an issue.

Honeymooon from SoR was 4250+ about a month ago. He doesn’t really talk but he’s the highest I know of.

Rank 4250…that’s insane! Is GW2 his full-time hobby/day job?

has to be, cuz it’s not possible otherwise. 4244 ranks (excluding 1-5) is over 21 million wxp. thats 2100 flipping SM, 350k player kills that all gave 60 wxp each which isn’t likely, and so on.. the guy has to play at least 10-12 hours a day. i saw a gold footman the other day in EotM.

How sure are we thats legit. I recall an Anet dev recently saying nobody had currently passed 3000 ranks, about a month back.

The guy is on almost 24/7 but we didn’t believe it either until someone from JQ confirmed seeing a Diamond Invader on SoR. There’s no other person it could be.

Diamond Invader is rank 6445, its extremely unlikely anyone has reached that. It was probably Mithril Invader rank 4095+

I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for new legendaries, I really want to make a legendary shortbow but there is no chance I would ever make that joke of a unicorn bow, I want something fierce to accompany my incinerators.

RoseofGilead.8907:

You can auto-loot. It’s in your settings. And you can just set up a key or a mouse button that’s in easy access to do it. I have one of my side mouse buttons set to auto-loot.

…..

I know there is auto loot…. but you still have to spam F or some other assigned key to collect it.

Why do I have to keep constantly pressing F when im trying to focus on staying alive in large battles? It is very distracting always watching for when you get that xp pop on screen then press F for the loot, when really all I want to be looking at is where the enemy is or dodging red circles on the floor.
I have read that it is illegal to make a macro to collect this loot so could you please add the option for loot to automatically be collected into my inventory, as

1) spamming F is distracting
2) spamming F is annoying
3) spamming F is clunky

that is all.

PowerCat.5738:

I just wish we could use pristine relics to obtain these!

Agree with this, after 472 fractals complete I obtained 1 harpoon skin.. I have no intention of wastein any more time hunting these skins unless they become purchasable with relics.

Uhmm.. craft them into an Emp Star? It takes 100 shards to make 1 Star.

If you honestly have 27000 of them you can easily get a full stack of Stars and craft your Ascended Gear.

I have full ascended gear, weps and armor… and now these shards are useless to me…

and yes I do have 27k+

Why can’t you craft ascended for you other chars? My warr have full gear and all 11 weapons, including underwater. Now i’m working on ele, then thief, mesmer, engineer and guardian.

Well although I do have alts they are not important enough to me to spend the kinda gold on them to gear them in ascended, I play WvW 90% of my game time on 1 character as that is my thing, just as alts are obviously your thing or perhaps u just have so much gold you can afford to gear them all.

Actually i don’t have that much gold. But i don’t have anything to do in this game either. All them are 80, and i really don’t like of the legendary weapons, so the only thing to do right now is farm iron, platinum, logs and silk, then craft ascended stuff for them.

Then you have something to do with all the shards, but not everyone is going to gear 5 alts in ascended gear.
I just want a new recipe, perhaps for sharpening stones that requires these shards, that would be perfect.

Playing as blue, Ive seen this happen in red and green keeps, it should be fixed asap as it really slows down a cap and always kills a few people.

Romek.4201:

rewards are same as in wvw when play wvw right

Then you are playing EOTM wrong :P

So basically I’m not going to learn anything from watching this stream, ok I will give it a miss.

Yeah I had the same issue but I had bought 3 sentrys so still had 2 left ready for when my side did own the observatory, I agree though you should be able to put it back away just as you can with rams etc. I guess they overlooked it or just rushed.

I remember seeing an interview with Colin where he said they would add either a trinket slot legendary or backpiece I believe it was, and I have been looking forward to that for a long time now, I really wish we could get some update on this.

In that case, isn’t pretty much every single drop useless to you?

might as well just trash everything you pick up, you’re done.

Why even post here if that is all you are going to contribute? all you brought to the table was your envy.

Arnon.1563:

If you don’t want them delete them instead of saying the drop needs to be nerfed.

The drop in EOTM should be nerfed, 600 shards in 1 nights play? thats overkill, but I actually wasnt asking for a nerf to them, I just asked for something to do with them, such as a new recipe like the toxic crystals for bloodshards.

And I have no intenton of deleting them… they should have some value, thats the point, so I will hold onto them until they do have some value.

DeathDragon.5197:

Craft them into stars and mail them to me :-p j/k
Seriously though idk if they are account bound or not but if they aren’t maybe sell them on the trading post?

Shards and Stars are both account bound.

Last night I collected over 600 emp shards from EOTM, its to much, I now have over 27 thousand emp shards on an alt char with nothing to do with them, this is not a brag thread, I would just like something to do with all these shards. Please add a recipe or allow me to sell the shards to a vendor.

GuzziHero.2467:

Is there an option to turn this off? It is MASSIVELY obtrusive.

LMFAO, now you can see for yourself how obnoxious your tag looks when standing around in LA.
Btw this comment is not aimed at you personally, just all the ego tripping wanna be commanders who tag up in LA and in dungeons, they should have to suffer seeing the tag just as others do.

I am also hoping they add versitile wvw infusions, It crossed my mind that maybe they could add them with jewelcrafting when we can level that to 500, its kinda logical to me that we should be able to make infusions there, or just add them to artificer.
I dont care how expensive or difficult they are to make, I just want to be able to get them as I really do not want to be using the one with agony on my char that NEVER goes into fractals as I spend 90% of my time in WvW.

Im down with that.

yski.7642:

If only I had more ascended thingyes…

Bloodlust stacks alone should take my damage up to ~18k though, so it wouldn’t take THAT much to get to those numbers. Can’t have someone go critting higher than me :P

I can tell you as a full ascended geared thief with 25 stacks of bloodlust and Guard leech, the numbers you are hitting with 4 signets popped are the same numbers im hitting, the difference is I dont need to pop signets to do it, its just my standard dmg, so yeah gear up and buff up.

Auesis, In my view you deff completed the challenge, good job there.

Why is there now a white line under the quest trackers? I understand you want to seperate them but this just looks bad, kinda like the screen is scratched, maybe it’s just me, and im sure people will say its just you :P but it’s really annoying me, either remove it completely or make it black in color.
Anyway rant over, just had to get that off my chest.

Typical, I have held of from doing my personal story for over a year and now I goto do it I find its bugged, same as other posters above, tells me to talk to my crew while swimming about, cant progress any further…

Josh Davis.6015:

• Critical damage changes

I quit this game for 2 months when you added 4 sec reveal, I came back when it was reverted in WvW, now if this is another nerf to my thief I will be quitting and never coming back.
I played WOW for 5 years and never once quit or got angry about any balance change they made, but already some of the changes you have made to the game just make me want to uninstall and never play an Arenanet game ever again (thats putting it politely).

Some Idea’s, change the trait to any of the following :

Stealth related
1) Create a black powder smoke field.
2) Reset cooldowns on all deception skills.

Escape related
3) Area Immobilize, 3 targets for 2 seconds
4) Gain swiftness for 15 seconds
5) Remove control effects (fear, polymorph, stun etc)

SoulSin.5682:

Meanwhile we are at it. Roll back Thiefs reveal to 3 seconds.
Thanks.

Totally Agree,

When they introduced the 4 sec reveal to PvE, WvW and Spvp, I actually quit the game for 2 months since it completly killed the fluidity of my DD thief, I came back when they reverted it for PvE and WvW but its the main reason I cannot stand Spvp anymore.
Not only does it completly crush my DD build but it also plays havoc with my timing of C&D, since the majority of my time is spent in WvW with a 3 sec reveal, having to then adjust to it being 4 seconds causes me to make mistakes I would never usually make, and is extremely fustrating. I would love to enjoy Spvp again someday but I cannot until this is reverted.

poepie.6570:

I would like to notify you people that I’m placing a bounty on Dei’s head (GH female human mesmer with quip and pink sword).
Screen shot it, upload it and send me a ingame mail with the link for your reward if it is indeed her.

Ps. There will be cookies.

Pps. No hard feelings deary ;p I’ll still roam with you even if your on the wrong server ;D

Here you go, it was actually a 2 v 2, Me and a Mes vs 2 GH mesmers, Im sure Dei can confirm it for you :P

As one poster already mentioned I think it comes down to different areas of the game, personally I would add soloQ as being the most toxic space in GW2.

Without downed state they will not sell enough finishers in the cash shop, so personally I never see it being removed for that reason.
I used to hate the downed mechanic, but now I really dont mind it and think it actually adds to the tactical element of a fight.
Just learn to live with it, it’s really not so bad.

C Gunner.9406:

Thing is, I am the solo roamer trying to escort the doly into a tower and upgrades a camp and then a group of people (no more then 4) come in and take it after all my hard work.

Heck there was a Mesmer and a necro who killed me (2 people) and took the fully upgraded camp.

If you really want to keep your camp and you are solo try building an omega golem and sit there in that, it will give u better defence and more options. I did it once for a laugh and it was one of the most fun things Ive done in wvw.

281 views and only 1 reply, seems no one really knows then

Im guessing it has something to do with Jewelcrafting, maybe we will be able to make them when JC can be leveled to 500, or perhaps it can be discovered with artificer right now, the only other thing I can think of is creating them in the mystic forge somehow.

Im looking forward to finding out the answer to this mystery.

Could’nt find any threads about this and it has been buggin me since I first saw it in the dev livestream, so thought I would ask if anyone knows anything about it, or how to create these Infusions?

I have to shake my head in disbelief that after over a years progression in ranks Arenanet are going to get rid of them.
Gaining ranks is a form of progression that many people love, and have worked hard to move forward, you cant just take that away after so much work has been put in. Sure add new systems that go along with the rank system, but do not remove the ability to keep progressing with ranks.
For me progression is everything in an MMO, be it gear, spvp ranks, wvw ranks, achievement points, or whatever else that can be built on, and without progression I lose interest and start to get bored. Removing ranks from spvp will do more harm than good Imo. Please do not make that mistake, listen to the community, seems to me most people want ranks to stay.

So right now we have Eternity which in my view could be classed as a tier 2 legendary as it has been made through combining 2x tier 1 legendarys. What I would like to suggest is making every legendary have a tier 2 counterpart.

As example I currently have 2 Inceinerators and would love to be able to combine them into a single upgraded version of it, this new tier 2 Incinerator (give it a new name) would have effects/graphics added to it to improve it, like bigger footsteps, particle effect colour change during night day cycles, that type of thing.

I dont think this would be such a huge undertaking considering the speed content is being pushed out these days. Just add a few new sparkles to each legendary after combining 2 of them in the forge, call it tier 2 and then we have even more progression to be chasing (which is something I need).

Congrats Deso you have won this match up fair and square, no complaints from me.
/salute to Underworld for losing with dignity you have won my respect for that.
To my fellow AG players that came here to cry, please stop it, you’re making everyone look bad, that is all.
