I am actually very happy you are giving a way to get “orphan skins” back into the game. I am not happy that someone with inside information was able to dump all of their hoarded skins over so long of a period of time. It should have been caught and action taken before people actually spotted it, and definitely soon after it was brought to the companies attention.
I have made 2 private guild halls, one for each location. It took me 4 and 5 people to take each hall, if you have 9 or less you only get one spawn site so it makes it easier on people.
I am using these halls as you said to keep my interest in the game. The new legendaries and old precursors crafting are interesting to some but they just don’t click for me. Getting my halls to lvl 20 is my current goal, one is there the other is at 14 so will see when they both get to 20 what I will do with them.
My recommendation is to absolutely claim a private hall, do the easy weekly 300 point mission and hope for a race in the upper level(s) since you can do it with others (total 15 across the line does not matter if they are in your guild or not).
Orr only has 1 level. It is a learning experience but fairly straightforward. If you are dying take some more defensive armour until you are not dying. Running through mobs will work since they do not follow very far, and unlike the new maps are fairly dumb AI. Next look at the map for the closest wp and head directly for it (GW2 wiki has all maps and locations on it). Several can be unusable at times but many are open. Lastly use map chat. I see people on these maps all the time due to the drops from the mobs and from harvest runs, so give a shout in chat to see if anyone can help guide you.
Well this complaint was a first… Never heard anyone complain about this and I have played since beta..
I have seen it before, maybe from the same person who did the op since the writing style is very similar. Still no clue why it is an issue but hey complain to complain.
You didn’t fail as a leader; you got scammed by someone who is not worth your time or energy. He didn’t enter into this agreement with you to legitimately create and lead a guild together; he did it to scam you.
If you remember his name and have any screenshots of your interactions, report him to Anet. You could just report him in-game, or you could make a support ticket with his name and your account of what happened.
This, make sure you report using a support ticket.
While an interesting addition I can’t see any way that this coupled with more gold from dungeons won’t lead to inflation. The guild hall material sinks are unchanged, the crafting material sinks are unchanged, but more gold to buy them and push up the prices. Ah well.
The profession specific was for leveling and I have never seen any difference in mats on any of my characters. If you want to do the exp and open 1000 or so of the same bag on each armour weight knock yourself out.
My favourite of the new maps. You pick a lane and follow the NPCs, not very complicated. Yes you get hit, the red circle under you means move, the target over your head means move, you don’t even need to dodge just move.
I just did Hot for the first time today, and it took me a good 30mins to take a base solo in silver wastes with my ranger…
I then had enough time to grab a vista and get down again when the base was instantly over taken… by strange dog things with insect legs, they out ran me flicked me up and insta killed me… fun…
I then run all the way back in time to see another player die to them and fail saving the base only to insta die again to strange green mist..
I then decide i’ll follow the story which was uneventful and well i have no bloody idea whats going on, apparently the pact has all been killed by trees and a dude with glowing eyes… Heart of thorn title and i’m in Brink..
No back story nothing so i’m lost completely I was away from GW2 for 2 years and well supposedly we are supposed to be able to drop GW2 and then return and not miss anything… guess not.
Ok back to Hot i’m wondering why sylvari are all evil now which is odd because the sylvari home town is still the same, i move on i defend this pact base after rescuing the reavers or something and ritlock turns up all ninja like and saves the day, everyone is shocked at him being alive but not me because i have no clue he was dead??
Then the real entertainment starts i finish the story and i’m told i must fly to start the rest well i have no clue on masteries so i go to kill some stuff… i’m insta killed by pocket raptors in seconds..
People find this map fun, really?
Also as an icing on the cake for some reason i get headaches playing hot, i do not in the original game, why is that?
The maps are dead on my server and well i have no real interest in going back, i feel i wasted my money on this thing.
TLDR Heart of thorns is a waste of time and money.
The people the where absolutely sure that there would be no release on the 19th are now absolutely sure they are going to “destroy” a fractal by some way not giving a backstory? What is the next trauma to life? Too many pieces of candy in a bag? The price of something no one buys will drop and no one will buy it? Drama is a waste of time.
How do people get it won’t be released on the 19th from what was written? They will give a release date without a build-up is what I got. It could be the 19th or a later date but nowhere did he write it would not be next week.
Mesmer can put out really nice condition damage but they had problems with controlling the mobs they where up against. Chronomancer has wells that give cripple and chill etc so this is not a problem. I run occasionally a shatter condi mesmer and do not have huge issues with it. Mileage may vary.
Why do you need to know? A desire for a super villain whose entire focus is to destroy your gaming pleasure? ANET is more than capable of making mistakes without a super villain. NCsoft owns ANET pretty much always have. Not much else needs to be known.
Heart of an MMORPG? Can’t say I agree in any way with this. It is a social aspect of the game certainly. Not required for me to enjoy myself and actually can take away enjoyment when the guild gets too clingy.
If you can’t draw and retain people maybe it is not the game that is the issue. Guilds are a lot of work and I appreciate it when they are done right but very few people can do it right in my opinion.
Hold the right mouse key to pan without changing direction.
The other bit I don’t notice really so can’t say I have needed to remove it or even known when it was activated/inactivated.
Starting over is not a huge deal , you lose unlocks for storage but every thing else you basically need to ’re-unlock anyway.
Edit: it takes one low level mission to get enough points and gold can be spread across the number of players interested in the guild. It takes 4-5 people to claim the hall so again not an issue.
Mobs are fine, I can move through any map without too many issues, running through raptors and smokescales is suicide so just take your time to either kill them or avoid them.
The map that everyone complains about, tangled depths is actually when you look at it very easy to navigate, hint use the skills you have developed and don’t blindly stumble through the tunnels.
How would any of that benefit the game as a whole? Cleaning out old bids would make things a little prettier but that is all. Changing your bids every second does nothing since the whole point as said above is to be a gold sink. Price history is provided by the api if you want to track it yourself.
Since it is your thread op you kind of need to say more than no to other peoples posts. They came back with their thoughts, there is nothing to say no to.
What areas do you need to get to that are hard to get to? Why do you need map completion in those areas if you don’t want to get to them in the first place?
Guild events happen in only specific areas that all can be reached by running to them in under 5 minutes. Anything else is up to you to actually get there either by wp close or running from far off, none of it requires the map to be completed.
Some of that is weapons that are no longer in the game if I remember correctly like bronze sword or one of the low level staffs. Myself I can’t figure it out either but that is what people are willing to pay for a limited item.
If someone had developed a hack they would want the price high so they would release 1 a week or so, not a bunch at once that drives the price down.
Could be banned accounts coming back online and dumping their goods before the next ban round hits.
Same as Randulf. I had them on an alt from a time when I needed bank space and they were still there when I collected them back to my SAB alt. Moreover, mine were from the first SAB release as I barely touched the second one.
Check your alts. Hopefully you didn’t have your baubles on an alt you subsequently deleted.
I wold agree with those saying don’t bother with extra storage space until you actually need the extra space. I have played since the beginning and have not bought extra bags on any character. I have found the copper fed very convenient, the harvesting tools very convenient, extra character spots and now the shared spots that where just released. Over time I have increased my bank spots and material storage spots but only when on sale and when I felt I needed them. If you hoard and have a tough time throwing things away it won’t matter how much space you buy it will always be full.
You don’t need to spend the gems just because you have them
Must be a bug, I reported it as such. I just tested on my non-HoT account and no you can’t use the pads in Sparkfly fen but you can use them by shatterer.
I am sure I will be wrong about this but if I wrote constantly how horrible an expansion was, before release, during release and after release I would consider it really strange if I then waited 7 months to come to forums and complain that after all this time I was not able to get a full refund and a time travel ticket. Clicking on a persons name does surprisingly give their posting history.
Different time zone so can’t help but I do know it is very possible to do both hall locations with 5 people since I have done it. Actually only 4 of us did gilded (I have 2 private bank guild halls now lvl 16 and lvl 11, just because).
They could consider giving a bonus chest to all members of a group if anyone in that group has not gotten a kill on a particular boss. Might give a little incentive to invite fresh members in once in a while. Should not be enough to get farmed in an exploitative way (yeah I know people love finding loop-holes).
