Guild Wars 2

It’s a shame they’ve gone down the RNG route once again. I really like the Jade skins but I will not be endorsing RNG by buying the boxes. I will support Anet if they started offering the skins in sets or in the gem store. I’m not a gambler, as much as I feel bad for those that have once again lost out due to the boxes you have been told.. Don’t buy them.. Simple..

You’re not the first and you won’t be the last. However with the amount of complaints that these RNG boxes have caused perhaps they should be looked at in future, possible boost to the drop rates or offer the skins in the gem store. I’ll echo what others have said, people want the skins, people are willing to spend cash on the skins.. A money maker right there! Have the RNG boxes also for those that have gambling problems but expand the options for players.

Are gem cards available in the UK? I haven’t seen them anywhere?? O_O

I can confirm this. I get a little lag when I throw grenades, it’s even worse when someone else is throwing them. Flamethrower is the same, if they are near you it lags out around you.

Needs sorting out! Everything else is fine though.

Hi, a suggestion to buff the chilli pepper drops from herb nodes and reduce the black peppercorn.

I’m over flowing with black peppercorn!! No more!!!

Thank you =)

Hello,

I don’t know if this has been suggested already but maybe add daily chest to W3 for W3 achievements only? Perhaps instead players could earn some badges/blue prints and some W3 achievement points?

Agreed it’s quite anti climatic!!!

Hi there everyone, I don’t know if anyone else is experiencing this but yeah it needs some attention.

A while ago there was some problems with jumping and many users reported that there characters were getting stuck just before jumping? They would end up falling afterwards.

Well I’ve noticed that when I’m running and then I stop running, then start again my characters legs get stuck and there is about a one second delay to restart running again. I think this might have been the cause for the jumping problem.

It would be greatly valued if a dev could take a look into this issue.

Thank you! =)

Hey Darkness did you manage to get it?

I was stuck at 26/27 with 27/27 highlighted. I did infantile mode again in zone 1 and went to the first house and it triggered the achievement for me. You could try that?

Oh I see thank you Aleth if it happens again I will screenshot it and submit it to the thread you provided.

So after 3 weeks of being bugged and a few patches later, I’m sad to say it’s still bugged on Blackgate server..

Hi there, don’t know if this has been mentioned or not.

I was in Spirit Watch map in PvP last night and well. Staff skill 2 on Mesmer teleported me under the altar where you commune to get the Orb. Basically I was able to swim around underneath it. I was stuck in combat, there is no WP to port to and enemy players weren’t attacking me. I could attack them and kill them from where I was. This bug needs an immediate fix as it could be exploited by others.

Thank you.

You’re probably right Khisanth but they need addressing as they’re both pretty annoying.

I wouldn’t consider it an exploit. The PvP rewards are already lackluster as it is. Also Anet did say they’d implement other ways to get laurels and why not cater to both the PvE and PvP crowd? I mean there are players in this game that enjoy both sets of content, a lot of you see things in black and white terms. Oh you must only enjoy PvE or PvP and you should only be rewarded for one aspect of them. They can have the laurels back if it’s that much of an issue. But it gives those versatile players a little something extra for the extra work they’re putting in. To save all the drama and fuss just don’t put laurels in sPvP next time. The 5 PvP salvage kits are just fine..

I can confirm, this has been happening to me. Not only that, I’ve also found that my character sometimes gets stuck for example.

If I’m running and stop and then start running again with the W key my character doesn’t move for about a second. Like it’s stuck. A similar issue a while ago with jumping if anyone remembers? Your character got stuck just as you were about to jump and then you’d fall? Yeah this needs addressing quickly because if you’re in sPvP or W3 then it’s pretty much insta death.. Please have a look into this devs.

I’m just adding that I guested to ET and it bugged out on the seal again. Something is up with this and it needs dev attention. Anyone else experiencing this please keep the thread alive. It’s been about two weeks now.

I’m developing “Developer Hate”.

Hahaha that has made my morning.

Oh no not my shatters

As a Guadian main this concerns me. Our job is to provide support to teams/zergs/groups. Some of the boons could be toned down slightly (protection needs buff). However we sacrifice damage in order to provide that support. Don’t make us as useless as the Paragon in GW1.. Thanks..

I would absolutely love to have my ele kitted out with a greatsword. The elite greatsword skill is amazing when you use it. Something like that on a permanent basis with appropriate skills for attunement swap would be great! Please make it happen devs!!!

I’m afraid I personally can’t convince you as I’m also not convinced. I will say that burning from VoJ’s active effect is acceptable. The passive? Not so acceptable.

Yes this is indeed a serious issue with that skill. It’s even worse if you already have swiftness on you.

I agree they could indeed use a buff.

I think it’s great! It adds to the theme of the class. Asura run around goofy, Sylvari look like they’re running away from something. Humans look like humans and Norn are annoyingly slow.. It’s the best running animation in my opinion.

Has it been confirmed or dismissed that the new Flame and Frost story will open up new areas of Tyria? It would be nice to explore the Blood Legion homelands and some more parts of the Shiverpeaks

nakoda.4213:

I’m still unconvinced that the Sylvari are sentient …

I’m not convinced either.

I can confirm this also. I use two axes on my warrior. Both have sup luck sigil. When I get downed and up again it changes my second axe into “Of Accuracy”.

I can understand the OP’s frustration at facing thieves in W3 and PvP. A cool down on stealth would be a better idea. Maybe whilst the thief is in combat it takes longer to recharge and out of combat it recharges quicker. Removing their core mechanic is a silly idea.

Lord Walhorn.4321:

I like the idea, I think guardians should have that shield effect (blue one that pops up every few seconds (I think its seconds), should be dark if wielding Twilight and not blue since it just doesnt look good if youre wielding a dark, shadowy sword of doom :P and then that annoying blue thingy pops up…just destroys the whole “atmosphere”

In the first game you could dye weapons. I think a little customisation to affect your weapons would make this a little better and of course a toggle option to show/hide the aegis symbol. I can understand in PvP/W3 the importance of seeing that symbol. But for PvE it’s not necessary..

In Guild Wars 1 the Asura armor person had spectacles and tinted spectacles you could purchase that had an armour rating and you could use in combat. Along with the lightbulb gloves. I think it would be a nice addition to blind your enemy with lightbulb gloves. Or for guardians that need to wear a pair of glasses to to read from their books..

It still appears to be bugged on Blackgate. Nevermind O.O

Anyone remember the giant rat that would run on a wheel and it would take you to another part of the Kurzick forest?

Haha just had to add, found this on YouTube:

Nostalgia!

Also, Mhenlo. <3

Oh my, the memories hahaha.

Thanks all didn’t realise this was a problem on other servers. Hopefully this gets sorted soon.

Hi there, not sure if this has been reported already but on Blackgate server the Dwayna statue is bugged. Basically someone has done Escort the Historian part of the chain and it’s bugged out on Breaking the Seal. The Historian isn’t present at the temple and Dwayna statue you can target but it’s green and shows a health bar. It’s been bugged for a couple of days now.

Thanks.

This is happening on my home world (Blackgate). A few of us home players got dumped in the Overflow server and missed the Frozen Maw Shaman event.. It’s a bit irritating now..

My mistake “The humans of Kryta, under the rule of the White Mantle, believed the mursaat were gods.” I got it a bit mixed up haha apologies all.

@Erukk I would like to find out what happened to Saul also.

@Lady Vireo

Well said! I agree with your post and can’t emphasise enough how much I would love to see Cantha make a return. Imagine that Jade sea being explorable now? The potential new creatures that could be brought in as well as new titles/skills or even professions. With little Luxon islands you can explore or tree houses? Anyone remember the giant rat that would run on a wheel and it would take you to another part of the Kurzick forest? Would be amazing to see all this and see the changes.. Even if you’re not a fan of Cantha that’s OK not everyone has to be a fan of it. Just as Lady Vireo has said.

It states that the invulnerability part of the skill lasts for 2 seconds on the wiki and 3 seconds with the trait elite focus.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Renewed_Focus

I think it’s possible that they could make a return. Didn’t Saul D’Alessio require help from the Mursaat to retake Kryta from the Charr? Kryta being the human home land now, the Unseen ones may very well make a return. I don’t think we exterminated them in the first game? We killed a few but not all of them and they do think they’re Gods so why not? It’s been 250 years, they could have rebuilt? We have a condition called Agony? Perhaps infusions and ascended armour will play a role in this?? Be interesting to see how those wasp people look after all this time.

You mean when the head sort of bobs downward a bit like those nodding toys that you tap and it starts bobbing? Yes happens all the time to my Asura.

I hope they do introduce a way to dye weapons in future content updates! It would be so nice to have a bright blue anomaly focus to match my guardians blue fire theme..

Yes Iruwen we’re all aware of how bad the Guardian scepter skill 1 is. However I too have noticed this bug on my Mesmer. It is not applying confusion as it should..

It’s not restricted to TC I’m afraid. It’s happening here on Blackgate too. Poorly implemented update. I’m thinking they should have released it “When it’s ready”…..

I too have noticed this. None of my skills would activate and I tell you the lag was like the Karka event. It was unplayable and Jor Jor just sat there doing nothing but getting hit on. We brought him down in around 5 minutes also.. Although I praise Anet for the change to loot and the idea to spread people around the map. It’s not working out so good. O.O

I will third this. I usually go to GW2 dragon timer for times and to get a gauge on what I’ve done. However people keep resetting the timer and screwing it up.. It would be good if we also had a dragon timer in game that you could hide/display or a timer for the pre events. The little hints they provide in orange are good but mostly overlooked by a lot of players because you usually see in map chat “is Tequatl here?” “Has Jormag flown by yet”. Excellent suggestion OP!!

They increased rare loot drops. But made it so the chest could only be opened once per day on one character to balance it or something? Oh and to spread people across the maps and do other bosses.

@ blanketfreak in the early days of GW2 monthly achievements W3 kills was there quite a few times from what I recall. People complained and were told to suck it up/don’t have to do it/no ones forcing you rhetoric.

Ya i was there when wvw kills were in the monthly. Been hear since head start and read the forums everyday and because people cried back then we havent seen wvw kills since. So if enough of us wvw complain we might win too or the should add wvw kills back in then because that the only fair way.

Maybe. Try it? But I’m confident that more people will come out and complain when there is a w3 monthly requirement. I think further along the lines we may be able to pick and choose our monthlies…

@Mungrul that skill point with that Mesmer that clones herself and has all the birds? Dethra I think? Was a very tough fight but managed her solo. Confusion constantly and other conditions it was nasty lol..

@Jason King

Hi Jason I have also encountered this issue in PvE in Malchor’s Leap doing an event near where all the sparks spawn. I assumed that the wooden chest only held a few items in it and it was a first come first serve sort of thing? Could you confirm this because I haven’t received any drops from it either..

Thank you.
