Guild Wars 2

Exclusive New Back Items

Two new exclusive back items, the Desert Rose and Zephyr Rucksack, are available as rare drops from the Southsun Survival and Aspect Arena activities respectively.

RNG? Again? Why can’t we just buy them off the gem store or something?

So you want elementalist to have 40 different weapon skills in combat? I could agree only if you give 3rd weapon for the other classes.

Lack of information is the main problem here. Some people can’t just buy gems every month to get a chance to recieve something extra. I hope these “gifts” doesn’t grow to a level where people who spend a lot of money on gems will be rewarded with some extra weapons skins…

Sarrs.4831:

Are ‘presents’ for buying gems with real money going to be the norm now? Am I the only one with a bad feeling about this?

Nope, you are not the only one. Soon we’ll see weapon/armor skins for people for regularly buy gems >.>

I have an idea for small forum improvement, giving the players a choice to select one of the ingame character portaits as forum avatar. It would make the froum a bit more interesting and would allow players to show their creativity. Of course it would be optional and players who don’t want to have the avatar would keep the current version of the forum profile. What do you think about this suggestion?

Go on WvW, keep falling down the tower, let your team resurrect you. Repeat 25 times.

Or simply go to any PvE area where you have a lot of dead npcs (like Orr) and stack all stats. These sigils simply seem to be extremely overpowered.

Honestly? I hoped new armors to start from 5k ap, or even higher. The skin doesn’t feel unique if 3/4 of the server will have it.

5 characters, two at lv80 (thief and warrior), lv35 guardian, lv30 necromancer and lv13 elementalist. I will get my ele up to lv80 after I finish 100% world completion on my warrior (which is currently at 88%).

Thanks to these badges you can buy cheap exotic weapons and armors at WvW vendors. You also have many armor and weapons skins there.

Kalastraer.8264:

here is a lists of /commands anet needs to add

/slap
/spit
/hug
/lick
/ponder

also it would be great if when you were targetting someone, it would be like _ slaps ____ across the face…
or _ hugs _______
and stuff like dat.

Spitting and licking? What do you want to do with this? ._.

If we talk about the chat commands, I think we firstly need the ones which were in GW1, such as /jump, /guitar etc.

Weirwynn.2390:

Possibly a silly question, but are you sure you’ve actually converted quartz into charged quartz four times? It’s possible to get charged quartz straight out of your home instance node.

I have highlighted my 4 charged quartz with the second circle, on the left.

And yes, I have timed it right and I remember all 4 transmutations.

I can’t believe people are still making these topics…

I can’t believe ’Elites’like you have time to even reply the topic.

I can’t believe “Players” like you have no time to even read the item description.

I’ve been replying several times to these topics yet every 2h hours someone writes a new one. It has been explained in the patch notes, wiki, guides and most importantly, in the game. I just can’t stand when someone can’t be even bothered to look up for the answer and makes 20th or 30th topic about exactly the same stuff.

I can’t believe people are still making these topics…

My achievement didn’t progress after today’s transformation. Anyone else having the same problem?

My shortbow leaves small, lightning-like trails and it glows stronger for about 1s everytime i fire an arrow. I thought all zenith weapons work like this ._.

I have played sanctum spirit for last 2h, trying to get the victory achievement. After completing numerous races on 2-3rd place I realized that 60% of your finishing position depends more on your luck from the powerups than skill and acutal jumping. I have learned the track and I know exactly how to make each jump/dash yet i still lose most of the races. Mostly because of the numerous lightning storms (up to 3-4 times in a row) and sudden teleportations to checkpoints ahead of me. No matter how hard you try, you can’t do anything about lightning storm spam while jumping. In dragon ball all additonal attack skils had set locations and at least I knew what kind of powerup im picking up, here I have random chance and for most of the time I get blinding light (which is useless in most situations) when my opponents get light travel or aspect master.

My solution for this would be lowering the number of players (12 is too much and the race is a pure chaos for most of the time) or changing the powerups to make it visible from the distance on what it does. Summarizing, rng is ruining another part of the game.

I really like the new layout. Just give it a few days and you’ll get used to it.

New haircuts for human npc’s have been added to the game in the latest update. I wonder why we didn’t get them for customization…

You can’t dye them, all 3 versions look the same. I was trying to find light armor matching the radiant parts and no matter what armor I use it just looks bad…

Yup. I would buy it straight away (because I like the game and competinion with random people met in LA) but the cost of 100G is just insane. You would need to play over 2000 times to just make it worth the 1-time kits.

I will buy it if Arena lowers the price to 10G or puts it in the Gem Store for reasonable price.

I was doing achievements for Blecher’s Bluff activity and this is what I’ve found in my home instance. Remember in the last update norn NPCs had new tattoos and mustaches which also have been added for the character creation. Can someone check if this hairstyle has been added for female humans? Currently I don’t have any free character slot to do it myself so i’ll leave it to you.

Edit: I have found another new haircut on one of the Zephyrites.

My idea for housing: floating land in the mists. Players could get their personal teleportation devices which could transport them to their houses in the mists. Why the mists? Endless space and posibilites on what could you do in there (like gardening, wardrobe, bank etc.)

I’ve opened the second chest, 100 WvW badges, jug of liquid karma, revive orb, karma booster, 5 paid tournament PvP rewards (!) and 5 mystic stones. I was really surprised, thats quite a lot of good stuff for only 500 achievement points. I also discovered that new armor starts from 3000 point chest (gloves).

I can’t wait for the next chest

I enjoyed this mini-game till I met Andul. His signature move is ALWAYS on and I can’t even beat him to 50% hp.

I shouted on map chat in LA about this achievement and the party was made in 10 seconds. We went on lv1 fractal and keep restarting it till we got the colosus. It took us about 10 minutes to get this kite, the basket is right after you destroy the knee seals, you just have to go up past the wind traps. I can’t be missed.

Re-design it a bit and add this map for standard PvP matches. There could be just one capturing point (in the middle) with “king of the hill” style gameplay.

Well, im in exactly the same situation. I have done every single achievement in the living story up to Sky Pirates. I am missing 3 achievements on which I’ve spend the last weekend, trying endlessly to get at least 1 of them. Unfortunatelly this dungeon is based more on luck than skill and it gave me more frustration during the past 2 weeks than any other game I’ve played in the past couple of months. My look on the great visuals has been overshadowed by terrible mechanics and ridiculous difficulity. For me it was the worst form of temporary content in this game so far. I did however enjoyed the dragon bash as a whole event.

Making one of the most difficult dungeons so far with least amount of time for completing it was a terrible choice and I just hope it won’t happen again. I don’t even care about these achievements anymore, I just wanted to have fun playing the game.

Well, for all previous events I wasnt looking at any previews and I was trying to get everyting done without the guides. It was all fine because I had a month do to so. Now I have less than half of that time and even more achievements.

You will get rewards based on your total points. If you have e.g. 3k points now then you will get all rewards up to this milestone. By the way, wouldn’t it be a bit odd if people with 10k achievement points couldn’t get any rewards? Think about it

This is just the start and more items will be added in the future. But I do have to agree with you, these new skins will look ridiculous with most light armors. Also its a shame that we can’t use dyes on them, + they are not even full sets(!). I’ll wait for the new skins to come out.

Well, if arena wants to add them permanently into the game then maybe we’ll get more nodes in the future…

26 achievements, some will take while to complete and we can assume that more people will focus on them from now on. The question is, are they limited to 2 weeks only like the Sky Pirates or do we have more time to get them done?

I can see some people asking for new, permanent content every 2 weeks >.>

Im still with monthly updates.

She looks a bit sleepy but overall I’ll give 8.5/10

Here is my new elementalist, Maya Storm.

I’ve seen about 15 people wearing them since they were introduced. And I have one myself.

I have 6.7k achievement points and I’ve spend hours (days?) to get them. I won’t accept any arguments about taking these points away from me only because “others didn’t do it”. I don’t even care about the leaderboards.

I really hope it will be something like HoM where you can get unlimited amounts of skins once you unlock it…

Why we still can’t dye weapons? I would like to see Zenith set in blue or green…

There have been some changes, additons, balances etc. Why don’t you start the game and see yourself?

Monthly updates. 2 weeks makes everything feel rushed, if there are new achievements people will try to get them as fast as possible, and this would lead to node camping, speed runs etc.

I finally had some time to try this dungeon. After 3 different attempts I can describe it with one word: frustrating. The visual aspect is great, but the core mechanics is just bad. Im talking about all situations where you die instantly, or how difficult some of the achievements are if you don’t have experienced team. Molten dungeon was superior to this one, this might be my first event where I won’t get all achievements.

My rating: 3/10

Im pretty sure they hate thieves, we get some sort of nerf almost every single patch…

My human thief, norn warrior, sylvari necromancer and asura guardian:

charr elementalist/ranger – coming soon.

It feels like the thief had a small buff towards survivality. I like the shorter cooldown on Steal and upgraded Signet of Malice (100->133 hp per hit). On my warrior the difference was also minimal, i like the 30% cooldown reduction on burst skills.

Other than that, I see no big difference.

JustTrogdor.7892:

No helmet?

I think she looks better without it. I wear it only when I go on WvW battlegrounds

When I saw these armors on the screenshots I had mixed feelings, but when they came to gem store I immadietely bought one
