Fermi.2409:

I’m willing to bet they’ll add one into the black lion chest drop list

I hope not.

I really don’t think ANet will be able to profit if they did.

They some how profit off repair canisters, which you can go to an NPC for free anyway to repair. They even made an Endless Repair Canister for it even.

Sarrs.4831:

Perma-orb with like, a half hour CD, would probably be pretty reasonable imo.

Why, cuz spending 1 silver to waypoint is worth 30 min cooldown?.. I think that’s a bit high if you ask me. Besides you can use orbs back to back with no cooldown.. so why should there be a limit.

Can we get an Endless Revive Orb now?

I mean there’s already an Endless repair canister.. why not right?

Edit: While we are at it.. why not just do Permanent Teleport to Friend as well..

1. Key Ring

2. Toys, Tonics, and Instruments section (like the old miniature collection in material storage).

3. Ability to Repeat recipes using Mystic Forge using a counter like how you can buy multiple items at a vendor.

4. Build Templates (the ability to change gear, traits, and skills out with a drop down menu to select the build saved).

5. Account wide harvesting tools

6. Standard character models in WvW like how they have them in PvP.

7. Salvage All window needs to come with an option to let you un-select stuff you don’t want salvaged.

8. Add a ‘Smaller’ option to UI scaling. This will go even tinier than ‘Small’.

9. Add a hotkey to both ‘Deposit All Materials’ and ‘Compact’

10. Allow us players to mark which items are considered junk, so we never have to deal with those stupid sigils and runes again !!

So when are we getting an Endless Revive Orb Contract?

+1 for Fix it !

Glad you had posted it here too, this really need to be looked at.. cuz back in January Lotus Strike had its aftercast delay shortened.. in these examples it shows it returned.

Yasi.9065:

And this is why daily tasks are bad…. Anet… please… make them into weeklies :/

I like my 2g each day, not 2g a week kthx..

Haedirn.6251:

network error

Same, I can’t get on any of my characters

I can login to get to character screen, but every character I try the loading screen times out giving me Error code 1083:5:7:1595:101

Galtrix.7369:

Ouch. This definitely sucks.

It’s right before the patch hits, so it only 2 hrs and 20 mins lost time.. at least it’s not a week worth.

adriannpeak.3562:

Anymore update about the rollback??

Wondering the same. I had completed 4 maps yesterday before the patch.. few hrs later patch came out.. so hoping I didn’t lose that progress.

“You must login to view this page” ..

RIP gem sales !

Long Version: http://pastebin.com/Nhk3hVnV

What made it interesting.. it said.. “Debug token ‘0×00000000000F1059’: Lightning ran out of space for new bolts.” .. ran out of space?

not sure what that means.. but kinda funny

1. Key Ring.
2. Tonic & Toy Section (also instruments).. Like Material Storage, but for your “collectables”.. Accessed through Hero Panel, not Bank.
3. Why are bags limited to 20 slots? Lets double that to 40 slots per bag! 320 Inventory slots !

Lithril Ashwalker.6230:

My suggestion would be a change to the way we all currently pickup specific items then end up complaining to anet about not having enough bags or space.

Considering the average player chooses to salvage or sell to merchant all green and blue weapons or armor and salvage rares/exotics for ectos with higher grade salvage kits an idea came to me. I know theres an option to salvage all greens and salvage all blues with the salvage kits, but let’s take it a bit further.

• The change suggested would add unique options to all Salvage-o-matics.
• Would only be able to “Turn on” 1 Salvage-O-Matics at a time.
• Right Clicking the Salvage-O-Matic now has another option: Auto Salvage ALL Blue&Green equipment on pickup. This keeps the SoM turned ON so as you aquire items from fallen foes or containers, any blue or green equipment(weapons and armor only) would be autosalvaged which would give you any minor runes you’d normally acquire, by manually salvaging, and drum roll please the materials AND LUCK you’d normally acquire by*manually* salvaging as well, directly into your inventory.

By now you are wondering: “what about the silver fed SoM?” To answer this, Both SoM’s are different as if they operated as one has higher chance for rarer materials than the other…It can boost both depending on what you have so there’s no real issue with either of the SoM’s

• New mentioned option could boost sales towards all salvage-o-matics / Salvager’s Supplies & bag slots/shared inventories.
• Players will not have to go back and forth as much to sell greens/blues, which saves inventory space.
• Did I mention easier access to luck?
• Umm…more space?
• No more fear of Bags of Masterwork Gear

This would make farming a lot more tolerable, and more enjoyable. Could you imagine opening bags, and just watch everything get salvaged instantly.. don’t even have to click nothing. Less time dealing with inventory management, the more time I can get to play. Great idea

Are these tests being run Live, or something being pushed out in the next Patch?

Jay.7562:

Can we make the ‘Teleport to friend’ a gem store item? Please!
Thanks for reading

Permanent Teleport to Friend Contract .. like how they did with the recent Endless Repair Contract .. Yeah that would be a dope item imo !

Also I’m still waiting on the Celebration Hat that we haven’t seen since release.

Forsaken.7015:

I think it would be amazing if crafting was account wide instead of charcater based is this possible? keeping track of recipes across multiple character is annoying. Not sure if it is possible or if anyone feels the same way? whats everyone else think?

I can understand having recipes account wide, but I would hate it if I couldn’t level crafting on another character just because an alt of mine did it. So I think what you are trying to say is any unlocked recipes should be account wide. Which I agree with.

dace.8019:

If you have some FPS concerns prompting this question, you might consider a CPU upgrade, depending on what you have currently. Anything between an i5 3570k to the current i7 top tiers will run GW2 well. AMD or older CPUs may struggle.

Still can’t find a PC that can run at least 60 FPS max graphics during Frozen Shaman world boss

Chris Cleary.8017:

Right now there is a consistent supply of mystic coins entering the game (way more than are being consumed) and churning through the trading post at a very slow rate. Most of the coins on the market are ones that have been flipped.

In retrospect, this is actually causing the daily login reward to be worth significantly more to players who wish to convert mystic coins to gold.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the price doubled up to 1g each sooner or later. Would be the new Silver Doubloon. I guess seeing Daily Mystic Forger show up will give me some excitement lol

Yeah something fishy going on with the 64 bit client. I’ve been having client crashes a lot lately too. Stuff like..

Exception: c0000005

Illconceived Was Na.9781:

Contact support.
https://help.guildwars2.com/anonymous_requests/new

While waiting for them to work with you, try toning down your graphics, especially reflections, shaders, and post-processing. (Or use the minimum graphics/max performance preset and gradually add to it.)

Good luck and please let us know what happens.

This is actually part of a lot bigger problem. A good number of people are crashing on different maps. If there are a large number of people around, they are more subject to crashing, even with graphical settings toned down. No one knows for sure if this is related to an Armor skin, or video card drivers being updated to the latest one, or what exactly.

Was just attacking mobs like normal, then got hit with crash error..

Video of it

Kakera.3195:

Because the third reward is too good. If you make 1 of the rewards too good, then the others will never be picked. If they make the rewards as a whole too good, then it’ll be a daily chest and I’d much rather be free to grind out the zones as much as I like rather than have one run every day and if I miss it then I’d feel like I’m missing out on rewards, like if I don’t craft my ascended mats every day.

Then make the first 2 as good as the 3rd. No reason to dumb down rewards. They wanted to improve rewards, not make them crappier

Kakera.3195:

I thought the chests were a bit weird because the first and second options were almost never viable, so I tried to think up three rewards that would be fair, on somewhat equal levels of worth, without being too overpowered in gains for all three options. I believe the chests should also not be made daily, because it would devalue playing the maps and turn them into daily grinds which are honestly not very fun; if I want to play Auric Basin 50 times, then I should be rewarded 50 times in somewhat the same way. So here’s my ideas to balance the hero’s choice chests, starting with Tangled Depths:

1. The static reward which is 5 Leaf Fossils is pretty bad, and I believe the chest could give a daily-locked reward in its stead of 25 Ley Line Crystals. This makes it pretty fair without being over the top, and it would be a one-day reward so you won’t be able to farm this amount of crystals every time. This also pleases the “I can’t play a lot every day” crowd, giving them a fair gain for their time still.
2. The Ley Line Spark choice should be scrapped, because it’s so easy to get them, nobody will pick it. Instead, have that option be to receive a random rare item that suits the Faction Provisioner demands. Some people might just be in it for the gold, so that’s good for them, and others now can access those vendors more readily. This option is for accessibility of those vendors.
3. The second reward should be a bit more powerful, because nobody really picks 1 chak egg when you can potentially get so many from the crystals and the keys you get from the third reward. What it should be to keep it in line is giving 1-2 eggs, random, with a chance of a chak weapon. It would be very rare, but people are also there to complete the chak weapon collection, and it requires a very large amount of eggs and currencies. This way, people have a viable alternative to grinding out the caches or grinding out the story on alts. This option is for people who want to get Chak Weapons, or the Mini Chak Gerent reward from that collection.
4. Chak Gullet shouldn’t give as much rewards, because it’s not supposed to be a braindead pick, but rather, it should help you explore the map more and thus, participate in events and the next cycle of the gerent’s meta event. To this effect, the rewards should be 5 Vials of Chak Acid, 15-25 Ley Line Crystals and 1 Greater Potion of Tangled Attunement. As it stands I bet not even many people knew that potion exists, because it’s Artificer only. This would make it a bit more equal with the other rewards, while allowing you to get a decent amount of the currency and keys every time you complete the map. This option is for people who want to participate in the next meta events and need the currency / loot from caches / cargo.

For Auric Basin, well, first the chest needs to be renamed to “Auric Basin” and not “Auric Basic”, but we also have these possible changes:

1. First of all, that chest can’t be found right now, or at least I never got it, because you’re supposed to get it from Grand Exalted Chests which never drop it for me. Make it drop from the event of liberating Tarir instead. The basic reward is a Maguuma Burl which again should just be the map’s currency, 25 Lump of Aurilium, once a day. I know the Burl is used for Amalgamated Gemstone, but bear with me, I’ll get to that eventually.
2. The first reward, once again, scrap it for a rare item that corresponds to the Faction Provisioner demands. This option is for accessibility of those vendors.
3. The second reward is a joke, nobody needs 1 Auric Slivers. You need 3300 total Auric Slivers and 3300 total Lumps of Aurilium to even get every last Auric Ingots for your Auric Weapon collection if you want to make all of them. Instead of giving Slivers out, give Ingots out. It should be 1-2 Ingots, with a VERY rare chance of getting a weapon, exactly like the Chak reward option. This makes it fair, because if you just want a few weapons, you’ll get the ingots to make them with a chance of randomly getting the right one you want which may not happen, and if you want all of them it’ll really help in the long run, making it a very good reward and more in line with the others. As it stands, the Auric Backplate is such a harsh collection that this would help those who want to go for that. This option is for people who want to get the Auric Backplate or just want more Auric Weapons.
4. The third reward should again be 5 Exalted Keys, 15-25 Lumps of Aurilium and 1 Greater Potion of Auric Attunement. This option is for people who want to participate in the next meta events and need the currency / loot from caches / cargo.

For Verdant Brink:

1. Turn the 5 thorns into 25 Airship Parts, daily reward for doing the meta.
2. Bottle of Airship Oil should be made into a random rare item that fits the Faction Provisioner needs. This option is for accessibility of those vendors.
3. Reclaimed Metal Plates are fine, but to keep it in line with the other maps’ rewards, they should be 1 Reclaimed Metal Plate with a semi-rare chance of getting a random rare Reclaimed Weapon rather than a static 1 drop, much in the same way you’d have a very rare chance of getting an Auric weapon or a Chak weapon. This option is for people who want to make the Plated weapons, and eventually Machined weapons.
4. Airship Engine Case should be 5 Pact Crowbars, 15-25 Airship Parts, and 1 Greater Potion of Verdant Attunement. This option is for people who want to participate in the next meta events and need the currency / loot from caches / cargo.

Finally, we have Dragon’s Stand. I thought of this map in the optic that you spend possibly one hour and a half in that map before the Mouth of Mordremoth is beaten, so that’s a fair bit more work than the other maps you can just log in, join a meta taxi and in 20 minutes you have your loot. In that sense, it’s okay to have this zone be done only once a day for the chest, but if people prefer to farm them, then divide the amount of rewards by 3.

1. You can pick 5 rewards. Reduce that to 3, and make the first reward be a flat 10 Crystalline Ores with 30 of each map’s currencies. It makes no sense that the chest rewards are a pick of a single 1 of the other maps’ crafting materials. If you’d rather have it farmable, then just make it so it rewards 5 Crystalline Ores and 10 of each map’s currencies. This option is if you want to focus your gains on other maps.
2. The second reward should be 3 to 6 Amalgamated Gemstones. Now, I understand that this would cause issues with money gains, so make these account bound. Since the recipe to make Crystalline Ingots is NOT in the Mystic Forge, you can use those as well as not account bound Amalgamated Gemstones anyway. This will only do good for people who want to make legendary weapons from Heart of Thorns. If you’d rather have the chest farmable, make it 1 to 2 account-bound Amalgamated Gemstones. This option is for people who want to make the legendaries.
3. Finally, the third reward shouldn’t be a shower of all those currencies. Instead, they should be a flat 21 machetes, with a rare chance of a Leystone Armor Box. Again, if you want this to be farmable, simply reward 7 machetes with a very rare chance of a Leystone Armor Box. This option should be for people who want to open up pods and make the Leystone Armor collection.

That way, the options are all pretty equally rewarding depending on your goals in those maps without being overly so, and there’s always an option for when you’ve depleted the other options if you’re a completionist who wants to do every collection and whatnot.

Why would they nerf the rewards. I think it should be 1 greater attunement potion, 50 map currency, and 12 keys.

What exactly are bugged about them? Is it something exploitable?

TPMN.1483:

Did this get fixed with the latest patch?
Are we waiting for normal patch Tue for the fix if above is No?

software is hard :<

Isn’t that just hardware?

Lawton Campbell.8517:

We found some issues with /v2/characters that necessitated temporarily disabling the /v2/characters endpoints. I’m not sure when we’ll have it back up, but it likely won’t be before the next release.

Sorry

Do you mean next patch, or next Quarter Release?

A lot of people depend on the Character API when it comes to tracking down where their items went, along with different stats they could check into while not in game.

Blude.6812:

Last thing I need, and the Quaggan is still stuck in the rocks. So sad.

DoogySnowStalker.2069:

The second Superior Skelk Liver you need to craft either the Infused Tiger Milk or Infused Tiger Food seems to be bugged to not drop after already dropping one Superiro Skelk Liver. I’ve been personally farming for a little over 4 hours now, and yet to receive the drop. Been seeing alot of other players also encountering the same issue, because I still see them also trying to farm for it.

The response to these issues is further up in the thread. It’s known and is getting fixed, no eta but soon hopefully.

Waiting at Entry 13 for almost 14 hrs. I hope this fix is really soon.

Here is a suggestion. Add an additional 5 more shared inventory slots?

Rename it to Super Flail, re introduce the Mace in its original form? Get both !

Move it back to Friday !

The location in Gendarran Fields south of Vigil Keep Waypoint ( [&BJIBAAA=] ).

Lady Derwena has a Cross swords Icon instead of the normal Pact Supply Icon.

DaikonSamurai.6714:

Not sure if said already here, but I posted in another thread. A Monkey King cloud (like Goku’s Flying Nimbus) would’ve been perfect for the lunar new year.

Also if all races get “surfing” animations like Charr on brooms, steam punk hover boards, or surf boards like Silver Surfer.

I would love a Flying Nimbus

Also this would make a great glider skin as well..

It’s been 29 months since we last got an improvment for Bank Tabs. While it’s only limited to 12, and a ton of HoT content, I am running out of room to put all of my stuff.

Would be nice to get MORE TABS

Wing.5487:

Come on guys, you could have released patch notes at least a day before.
nuff said..

They don’t release them until patch is out for market manipulation reasons.

Here is an article of what a lot of players are asking for. A Key Ring..

http://guildwarshub.com/gw2-key-ring-mock-up/

I have also gotten some huge feedback for this as well.

https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/41g7yg/pact_crowbars_exalted_keys_chak_acid_machetes/

Samnang.1879:

Isn’t that why they introduced the 5-shared inventory slots in the gemstore?

1. Permanent Bank Access Express
2. Personal Trader Express
3. Tarrktun Personal Delivery Portal
4. Copper Fed Salvage-o-Matic
5. Mystic Forge Conduit

Yeah.. Sorry I’m not gonna put keys in a 700 gem slots.

Ricochet Saw.1793:

INB4 they add account wide gathering tool slots and don’t refund any older purchases either..

http://www.bbb.org/

They said they don’t refund items that have been used for a decent amount of time, me on the other hand only have 1 set.. so I’m ok with this!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/41g7yg/pact_crowbars_exalted_keys_chak_acid_machetes/

Just thought I’d forward this information on to here as well. People want this really bad, and I see it being a great opportunity for ArenaNet to put in a type of gemstore item that would upgrade the inventory account-wide that could place an icon at the bottom of the inventory window, similar to where the Wallet button is, but have it for a Key Ring so it would put all your Keys in there.

Kodiak.3281:

www.gw2legendary.com

Pretty much covers all the expenses of each legendary based on TP prices. Can usually get them a kitteneaper, but it’ll show you where the principle of the costs are for each one.

So for Kudzu you can see the bulk of the cost is in the Gift of Fortune and Precursor (about being equal). Meanwhile other legendaries, like Juggernaut, the Gift of Fortune, Gift of Juggernaut and Precursor are all roughly the same.

be nice if that site was interactive.. I see like 0%, but I can’t change anything lol

Okamiba.7605:

I’d love this, actually. As long as it’s optional.

You could put it in the inventory options gear thing.. like show/hide rarity option.

Ganathar.4956:

warrior shapper.6502:

Well i think Dilligat wyt confirmed what i was after, when i say stack i dont mean duration or in my bank/inventory/bags etc, i mean when activated i can have them activated both at the same time so i can get 100% exp ( 50% from) both boosters since i have 100+ of the old boosters just make experience gain in HoT a bit easier to get masteries

You might want to convert your old xp boosters into the 20 minute versions of the new xp boosters instead of stacking them with other boosters that you have. If I am not mistaken the new ones affect xp from everything you do. This means that they should affect xp from crafting, exploring, events and even competing personal story steps.

If you aren’t intending to only grind mobs, it would probably be better to have +50% xp from everything + the killstreak bonus of the new boosters for 20 mins rather than +50% monster xp for an hour.

Keep in mind there is more than just xp boosters. Gathering boosters stacked to 66% is really nice, even better with heroes banner on top of that, along with guild buff. I was gathering twice the materials (plants would let me gather from them twice 90% of the time).
