They just vanish with right click menu and use from bank.
Double clicking just send them to your inventory and back like normal.

If you right click the new frostbitten toolboxes in the bank using a right click-> use you get it consumed, but no random tool is given, or for the rare boxes, no tool delivered after your choice.

I am looking for that thing and I farmed for 2 hours two nights ago and another hour the next day. I have 227% MF with food, my ascended amulet infusion, and halloween tools.
I can go even higher with birthday/celebration(100%) and Gem store MF booster (50%) and laurelate booster (30%), guild buff (10%?) and hero banner (15%) and possibly wvw outnumbered (15%?) and wintersday event buff (30%?) for over 500% MF.
I have not seen one of these collection starter items drop yet.
-Is there a trick to it?
-Enemy level?
-Location?
-WvW?
-Risen, Toxic, or Normal krait?
-Specific Krait class? Neross or Deimoss or w/e?
-Champion Boss only? Blood Witches in Kessex and Timberline?
Any idea on how to find the unlocking item will be greatly appreciated. You know how to contact me in game.

Rank Points Name Character Wins Losses Win %
75% 9 Yumiko Ishida.3769 Hikari Kyoko Ishida 10 5 66.67%
This is what I have now with 20 wins ranked (12)+ unranked (8) on my guardian most used (67% or more) and I mostly play ele and guardian who are my lv 80s in PvE. As I feel strongly that a homegrown lv 80 in PvE is ideal for PvP instead of a fresh lv 2 class. I seem to have won about 2 to 5 games in a row usually every play session with no blowouts, yet I get a loss here and there with triple professions and lose by about 200-300 in both ranked and unranked once in awhile.
I’ll have everyone know that I just started out with ranked/unranked pvp outside of hot joins/customs with the allure of the reward tracks and the new system as it was friendlier for us “newbs” and we can farm the stuff for pve without too much stress or insults. Seeing my stats above, I seem to be doing quite well with my guardian and elmentalist and have won my solo joined matches on necro and engi when the daily is up using my own builds.
I only have to say I hate the fact I’m getting triple mesmers and engis on the opposite side with meta builds that seem to not be counter-able even when its not the daily for that class.
I had cases where I would die in one hit in half a second without seeing what they even did. That is not fun even for a beginner that knows their Guardian or Elementalist very well. The multiples of a single profession needs to stop.
Did I mention I only enter alone to be paired up with others?

I think I know a way to keep farming in less desirable spots, but I think only engi or necro can do it with their turrets/minions

I did all my dungeons and just want to do some old school no frills dungeoneering. I would love to just run it with no skipping mobs or stacking and test myself and my abilities as a player. I detest the meta and Zerker play, as its stale and boring and so efficient, there isn’t a challenge anymore. I want to go back to actually using every skill and mechanic and no LoS or wall abuse or stacking/AI abuse yet no one is going to do it as they are either not confident enough or want the money at end ASAP.
It might be a better teaching method than “just sit here hit 1” most players tell the new people that are new to dungeons these days. That doesn’t teach you your class and what it can fully do! Not in the slightest!
I’m not intimidated with dungeons as much as just not willing to do them the current way of thinking anymore. I did them all the old way, the res rushing way aka the pre-waypoint functionality changes where you now can’t way point back if whole party is in combat, and the current “Meta” way of stacking and AI abuse.
I prefer the way we handled them when we first encountered them: learning to take each foe on and learning every in and out prioritizing foes and such.

They need to at least up the charged drop rate in those nodes. I rather have spent 100s of gold to get a much more guaranteed drop than hit only what 4 nodes on a tiny map?

I have horrible luck on quartz nodes to hit a charged… Opening boxes was a godsend for me as I could get enough charged and make my full set of ascended celestial. Now it going to be much harder with just my personal node and charging once a day and looking around blind in Dry Top.

The only bug was in 2013 that they appeared too often , as in every box you opened dropped a green one and every few boxes a charged one. After that it was made more rare yet still dropped, and now this year: none what so ever!

I had all my minis become lost from Wintersday year one. I had the golem, the griffon, and the princess doll. The other two I could not make as you could only get stuffing and glue and so many cogs only once each Tixx’s Imaginarium dungeon each year. I deleted my frames I think as well.
I now have no choice but to buy those minis now with gems as my year one minis form wintersday year one are gone! I don’t even see them in the special temporary tab where they should be (where the HoM ones went too) when the Wardrobe hit.
Either… anet needs to rectify this or I don’t bother getting them. I have the doll and griffon but no golem and I know I had it on my guardian.

I don’t know where anyone is getting these figures…I never really spent more than 50 gold to make my Zojja’s staff as I had the mats over time and knew where to farm the wood and other stuff.
Its doesn’t take more than an hour running through a few 15-50 level maps hitting every tree for wood. Leather is now cheep except for t4. Ori/mithril form salvaging everything metallic. Silk from cloth stuff.
Cloth of any type can be a problem. But Harathi centaur bags are for wool and cotton respectively based on level. The mystic forge is your friend with blue karma gear from certain vendors to make salvageable stuff for cloth/linen.
I have 161 gold and I have no issues.

I did every dungeon. I have my dungeon master, and I’m lv 18 fractal with 25 AR and seen every fractal and did them. I do open world more as I found a better way to make gold than run the same dungeon over and over doing the boring meta way of play. I only go back to a dungeon nowadays to get tokens for a skin I don’t have and i suffer doing it with you meta lovers.
Even then, I can just pvp now that I have every reward track open.
I don’t grind for gold in dungeons. I do them for a challenge. Standing in one spot even in fractals and killing everything AI exploited, and not doing the mechanics how they were intended, is boring and lazy and non-challenging.
I rather have a dungeon with 5 man puzzles, traps (guild puzzle style?), and doors— that seal themselves off Zelda-style until you kill every foe with good rewards and money— right now to have at least a semblance of a challenge. I did make this suggestion in the now dead dungeon forums and not one positive reply.
Goes to show who is not open to change and its not me.
I must be that jaded or want something new.

I want new explorable dungeon content in our expected framework, those of you of the zerker meta clearly don’t.
Who said those who play the meta don’t want new content?
I’m pretty sure most of the meta players want new content/new dungeons as much as the phiw.
Actions speak louder than words. You can say you want it all day, but if the metrics don’t support our claims, words fall flat. Metrics are just numbers yes, but Anet looks at metrics and media, we need whatever it is they pay attention to or look at to say something that plays in our favor.
This doesnt make sense. Pretty much everyone in every top speedrun guild has been asking for new content and more difficulty. And we dont believe theres a problem with the meta in terms of core design. Weve embraced the game for what it is. We just want better content which compliments it.
If anything the anti meta people dont care about new dungeons as much as they dont do them as much. And they would be satisfied with completely revamping the game. But thats getting into broad generalisions. Although i have noticed a very large proportion of aggressive anti meta players have indicated in their posts that they actually barely touch dungeons and fractals and that they focus more on open world and world bosses. Kind of interesting dont you think? Should also point out that they often have flawed arguements based on a lack of knowledge towards dungeon strategies.
What you mean anti meta don’t want new dungeons and content? I want new dungeons can content but not doing the meta, I.E. exploiting AI in a corner (stacking) and spamming 1 in all zerker gear.
If I or anyone else knows every tactic, and how to fight every boss, I or they should be able to fight them normally without issues and kill them just as fast 5/5, with various classes (not 5 warriors), not stacking, and not exploiting the AI.
This is what you all don’t get. We think its cheap and un-intuitive. And it has to end. Period.
I do a dungeon the meta way and I am so bored with it. There is no challenge at all sitting behind a wall with the boss on you.
I admitted I was getting into broad generalisations. Which isnt fair. Although its kind of ironic coming from someone who thinks reflects are only used for karka.
I only know instances of using reflects where I frequent most, and Karka was the hardest foe that came to mind that needed a good reflect to counter. I dodge most projectiles even in low areas.
Reflect was used to block Kohler in AC (yet we just stack behind a wall now and exploit him), I used reflect in pvp/wvw when it was needed. Those nasty foes in Orr with projectile pulls? I got you now kitten! a la Scorpion: “Get over here!”
Forgive me for only giving the most dangerous example.

Neat changes but rewards for daily logins? Really? That is a psychological tactic for sleazy f2p games to get players to spend more money in their cash shop, not something for a supposedly respectable AAA MMO.
Overall good changes to dailies though, but still…
Even PSO 2 has a Daily Login reward system (a reward every 5 daily stamps and recycles after 50 days) I wanted something like this in forever on GW2. Maybe players will return and more RPers will come back from year one!
If this is what the game needs to retain people, so be it! Make more loyalty programs ANET! Good job Devs! The game is back on track!

Leo. G. what you propose for reflects is not a good idea. Karka will rip whatever classes that can combat them to shreds even more than already happens now. Reflect AFAIK, isn’t really used that much other than to fight karka and a few other select mobs.
Getting hit by one spit shot out of all its 6-10 hits is like 2000-4000 damage even in most defensive gear. Making reflect like you have it on your post will kill anyone as the karka will only get reflected back one and the rest will go through doing 16000+ damage total killing any player unwary.
Same with dodges, you will get hit at least twice with the two dodges as is if timed poorly. One dodge not enough for that deadly area.
I fight karka. I farm Karka. I know what I’m talking about.

Well the conclusion is clear: those that hate the meta should all form a guild designed to play with those that hate it.
I’m ready to open up my dead bank/RP guild for this purpose if I can get enough to join it.
House of Ishida [Ishi] will become such a guild for those that want to play the game the way it was meant to be played: NO ZERKER META!
Baiting remarks aside…
Speaking as a “filthy zerker elitist” (;P), this sounds like a wonderful idea. And, a much better way to approach the “problem” than complaining about the meta, like so many have done in the past and present (hell, and future).
Edit Might want to mention NA/EU (I’m guessing NA from your sig), and make a new thread about it (though it will quickly get moved out of this subforum if you make it here).
Its not the zerker gear itself that bugs me (I have it too and full set!) as much but its everything that goes with it.
The stacking in a corner and running past mobs that would normally melt anyways in 10 seconds flat no matter what you wear, just to get me killed for being the slower computer specs or class or both. It just doesn’t promote smart play and knowing your class well. Its just stack and Press 1 and sometimes use PBAOES and a heal skill!
And the “play our way or never be in a party.” cause everyone has to “Can’t beat them? Join them.” really makes it impossible to get any groups. Even for non dungeons as no one wants to do anything but beat dungeons as fast as possible over and over for money. I did find better and faster methods for making gold and not have to deal with any of this anymore.
I need achievements for stuff but nope no one wants to do that as they are stuck in this meta and only dungeons matter in GW 2. So I get kittened and rage at the meta for different reasons. And here I am, again.
Also the favoritism of certain paths over others is getting old. I’m lucky I got all 4 arah paths done. It did take me almost 2 years, however. “Sorry we only do 1 and 3 <insert dungeon here>. Path 2 is not worth doing cause money is too hard to get.” Just help the god kitten achievement hunters for once? Maybe they’ll help you in the future in return? Ever thought of that?
I watched an old vid on youtube in the early days of gw 2 with the Old AC path 2 (not the Ghost Busters crap) and it was an hour 30 minutes long run of that path, complete with a skilled and balanced group (save a lv 46 thief Asura that died to every big champ/legendary only casue of his level) that fought everything and did it well. Even Kohler which we now get behind a pillar on the opposite side and have everything on top of us, they fought beautifully in the old way he was fought!
1. they did not stack
2. they did not skip anything
3. they had fun
4. they probably didn’t care about levels or gear.
5. they still did it faster than I ever done it full clear. I took upwards 3-4 hours for me and a PUG.
6. they used every mechanic at their disposal.
This shows true skill that doesn’t exist anymore, all because of a stupid meta.

GW 1 release date: April 28, 2005. GW 2 release date: August 28, 2012. I see a trend here.
My account is about as old as the game in GW 1, but I don’t have any day 1 characters anymore on GW 1.
I really don’t care what goes on in GW 1 anymore. I had my GWAMM and my 50/50 HOM for 3 years now. I’m long gone from GW 1. All the power to the devs for making a big celebrations!

You are doing it wrong bob. You throw a bottle (one of three uses in each balm) at groups of three in the waves. Its very efficient if you time it right without causing the pattern to break. You should watch us do it sometime.

As a Canthan, I really advise going the route of The emperor Usoku. There will be a time where we will all need each other once again more than ever after the dragons are done.
There is no need to go back to our old ways. I feel so sickened by the rampant hate even today as I feel like I’m an outcast not thinking like mainland Canthans back at home under the influence of a xenophobic emperor, if he is even still alive. How do you think Charr or Sylvari would feel of we all went the emperor’s route?

How do you make a profit? Ingredients are usually more expensive than the results, so value seems to go down.
False.
Certain skins are now needed because of the collection achieves and the wardrobe collectors as a whole, you’ll make a profit with even lower level gear.
If its the nicer skins like masquerade, winged, and feathered in talor, or gladiator, and barbaric, armor in armormsith, or even the Bandit, Dredge, Ogre Krait and Pearl sets in all the weapon making sets, they will turn nice profits!
Along with rarer sets like, beaded, primordial and corrupted in all weapon crafts which will net upwards 30-70 gold a piece of you have everything needed to make one (without buying the materials of course).

I just want a guild that doesn’t stress on the meta and helps with stuff that matters to me with no ifs, ands, or buts.
I never had a good guild since gw 1 when my guild, Falling Angelz [FAZ] fell apart. I been guild hopping ever since.
Either they only want you for rep points, or they are elitist/ hardcore and once they done something they never wish to help or give stupid comments like, “The game is easy and soloble. Do it yourself!”, or “who maps areas anymore as groups?” “I don’t do living story its stupid.” “I did it already. I don’t want to do that again.” “That achieve is stupid to get! Stay with the EOTM farm train or go back to PvE and play with the stupid casual scrubs.”
I also am an RPer, so I can’t be in 100% rep anyways and since I’m living with parents, teamspeak/ventrillo/mumble is not for me to use as that can be annoying to everyone.
At this point. I might as well just only RP and be guildless, as I’m not a good player and I can’t do any content alone.

This is it, you don’t like it shame. Not going to change things.
I didn’t really have a response to this thread til I read this quoted post.
No one asked anyone to change anything. Just pointing that out right here, right now.
The OP stated he desires a follow up to GW1, not a theft of names and places used to make an entirely different game. You have two camps here, and the responses will reflect this.
Camp 1: GW1 players who were looking forward to a new engine to GW1 expanding in to crafting (I guess) and such, to provide a new experience with the old game. This was pretty much sold as GW2 right up until the launch when it was clear the Manifesto was ditched.
Camp 2: Players who never played GW1 during it’s glory days and come to GW2 from other games. These are the ones typically stalwartly defending everything in GW2 and poo-pooing anyone who brings up anything with GW1 in the discussion.
1. you don’t speak for me or any veteran.
2. I’m still here and playing the game and loving it. 7 years GW 1 and 2 years GW 2.
3. I have my own issues such a mega server, no Cantha, and no true support for RP and the stupid Zerker meta, it doesn’t mean I’ll leave over it. I just find my best way to deal with it and move on with life.
4. I got what I paid for, and this is pretty much what a wanted in a Guild Wars 2.

I did that one and they fly away startled at times— wasting the bottle and the candy corn that spawn. It successful, Its about 5 minutes a throw to kill, so 9 bags every 15 minutes with my guard. I haven’t tried it with other characters. At least my other 80s can get there.

They are not spaced properly enough to throw all three vials properly.
I kinda don’t care about the hour kick timer, as it takes less than an hour for one of my toons to get 300 bags each.
The shack in the crescent shaped hill is already full of people in Godslost Swamp. Other maps with ambients are too high level to be killed with utilities quick enough, Its like three kills every 10 minutes in Straits of Devistation and three kills every 5 minutes in Bloodtide Coast.

Is there a way to get your own dead map still? If:
- You are not in a party.

I been trying to get my own map to maize balm farm in Rata Sum, but to no avail as I keep ending up in the same map I was in with farmers present that don’t want anyone but lv 2 guards and a thief to throw balms and kill for them as they use Staff skill #1.
I don’t want to use a thief. I have one, but its too low level to do any good and I am not going to re-roll to a lv 2 Asura guard as I have a lv 80- guard already and all my characters are 2 years old and I want my birthdays next year!
Can anyone help me get a map where i can farm by myself on all my toons?
Anet already said its not an exploit to kill the bugs transformed here.

Is there any way to get my own version of the incubation way point area in rata sum? The most efficient way they farm now is remake lv 2 Asura guards and party up with a single thrower of any class… preferably guard, ele, or engi; or so was the case until Thieve were found to be more efficient.
Because now they only want thieves as the caltrops dodge can kill stuff in such a way you don’t need to party for kill credit:
- Is not needed to have a party
- can kill faster than any class
- Leaves everyone else out that wants to throw so no more lines or anything like originally.

Right now its a history lesson to the new players haha.
Used to run through there and all over crystal desert.
Like insanemaniac said though right now its just a hub of random things till they get a handle on everything toadd to it.
It is not the crystal desert! Get your kitten GW locations straight!angry lore nerd here
The “Dry Top” existed in GW 1 as well, and in reality, this map consists of parts of Majesty’s Rest, Ettin’s Back and the Dry Top itself. In GW 1, it was more of a jungle at the lower portions where we enter canyons now, and it was always dry at the upper regions.
The main reason to farm here is to get geodes for your clay to make the clay pots and recipes to get your Maudrey and Maudrey II made and get recipes (tier 4+) for the Amberite Weapons. A tier 4 or better is needed to efficiently get the materials necessary for the back items and weapons.
Buried Locked Chests (which you use the lockpicks for) also can give you the recipes and stuff on a small chance.

People like me are getting this when playing today on the new map and elsewhere like Divinity’s Reach. Its not just you. Anet kittened up today, so might as well not play until a fix comes (probably tomorrow).
WHAT HAPPENS: The game fails to stay connected and its a black failed to connect screen with that error you both listed above, and my router and everything unrelated connected to the internet resets.
