Orr drops fixed?

I was on a winning streak today as well. Rares from Orr and 2 exotics from dragon chests. We’ll have to wait and see how long it lasts.

Dear Aeranima,

Just got done reading your past posts. I’m giving you a big hug and letting you know it’s okay. Hang in there friend, and definitely take some time off.

To Buy Legendaries or Not to Buy

Posted by: Zimlobo.3962

Zimlobo.3962

I think buying a legendary would be the equivalent of having someone log onto your account and complete the Clock Tower JP for you. I don’t think I would run around the room screaming in victory by simply purchasing something off the TP.

New attempt at Spark

in Crafting

Posted by: Zimlobo.3962

Zimlobo.3962

Just looking at the Wiki…

They (Legendary precursors) are obtained randomly at a very low rate from large chests rewarded for defeating Claw of Jormag,Tequatl the Sunless, and The Shatterer and for capturing Temples in Orr or from explorer mode dungeon chests. They can also be obtained randomly when placing four level 75 or higher rare or exotic weapons into the Mystic Forge.1 If all four weapons are the same type, (i.e. four staves, four rifles, etc…) the output will also be that type. The higher the level and rarity of the items to be combined directly translates to a greater chance of getting a precursor.

I wonder if you have a better chance with the chests…or 200 exotics. Only time will tell.

I’m finally off work!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Winter Wonderland JP - % that can make it

Zimlobo.3962

It took me 3 days trying on average 1-2 hours a day before I finally beat it. Now I can make it 1 out of 4 tries and I’ve been farming the puzzle daily. I never did make the Clock Tower but from then up to Wintersday I practiced over and over again every JP I was near on the map. I’m not a l33t jumper but I want to be, so with practice eventually I will be l33t

Thief Dungeon/PvE Build

I have the same questions, which means I have the same underlining feeling that you have

Look… I suppose I play thief because ultimately I’m a roll-player. I’m hoping that if people can’t see past that fact, then maybe there is some redeeming trait that a thief can contribute to dungeon runs.

Backpiece salvage?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Zimlobo.3962

Zimlobo.3962

I hate getting them as drops because I cant salvage and they dont sell for much.

Are back pieces world drop, or only in specific maps/dugeons? I have never seen one dropped.

Back pieces do indeed drop, at least one dropped for me just before the Halloween event. I think the Wiki refers to these as back braces – http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Back_brace#Acquisition

<edit>I might not be remembering this correctly, I think for me this was not a mob drop but an item from http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Down_the_Hatch</edit>

I use http://www.gw2armor.com/ for all my armor browsing needs. As for runes and such the wiki is your best bet http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Runes. Cheers!

Though GW2armor is a great site for finding a skin you like it is terrible for finding wich armor has wich stats.

pls read the question before answering

GW2armor is not the most user friendly site, so it’s easy to miss the mouse over feature. For example go to http://www.gw2armor.com/human/male/crafted/medium/display.php, scroll to the bottom of the screen where you’ll find the different sets for the skin, and finally mouse over the individual pieces to see the stats

Constructive Feedback - Playing since Beta W1

Zimlobo.3962

Why do you need to say you’re a girl in every post?

Anyway, you’ve played 1500 hours? Uh… looks like you’re happy with the game as it stands. So why are you complaining?

Also, just wondering, why do you have “1500+ hours” in your signature? Is it a personal achievement?

I believe the point of proving a framework before committing comments for peer-review is about building credibility. Hours played is a relevant factor in building credibility. Also, I do not feel that Fay is complaining. She is providing honest feedback that I’m sure ArenaNet appreciates.

Cheers!

Totally! And here I was tossing this question around until Caithe’s name was mentioned. She would kill them both. Kinda scary.

Legendary items will take time. Not meant to be had in a matter of weeks.

I do believe that’s the answer to the question. Honestly I’m surprised to have seen as many legendaries as I have. Yes, the system is working as intended because through normal game-play it could take a year+ to achieve a legendary. I think of it as a built in customer loyalty incentive… Just one man’s opinion

A non-raging civil question about Precursors

I’m not too worried about costs. My plan is to wait out the market. I should have my first legendary in a years time (August 2013) and reach the other 2 that I have my eye on in about 3 years (~2015). I’m in no rush because in my eyes legendary skins are just one small part of an overall extensive game. All bubbles must burst

Year-Round JP Access Via TP

Zimlobo.3962

No rewards other than maybe a counter cheev that says the player has; for example, completed the Clock Tower 500 times.

I get the coolness of JPs coming and going with the seasons. My thing is I would pay cash to have the puzzles as mini standalone games, and I know that I’m not the only one.

Year-Round JP Access Via TP

in Suggestions

Posted by: Zimlobo.3962

Zimlobo.3962

Hey ArenaNet,

Want to make some money!? Sell a token through Black Lion Trading for year-round jumping puzzle access. 1 token can equal 1 seasonal puzzle allowing you to sell multiple tokens for each individual JP. Don’t like that idea? Put a timer on access, 1 token buys you 30 days of access. I don’t care I just want to play the JPs over and over and over and over…

Make this happen and I’ll trow my money at the screen.

Cheers!

Hello all,

If you’re someone who’s going for World Completion and have no interest in PvP, will you be left alone if you run the WvW zone naked with no weapons? Do you think it would be unnerving enough to be left alone if when attacked you /sleep and while laying on the ground you /s No it hurts! and Why are you doing this to me?

Admittedly these questions are a bit tongue-in-cheek

Cheers!

What makes you stick to an MMO?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Zimlobo.3962

Zimlobo.3962

Hello Gorphentos,

I have stuck with GW because the lore and group play.

For the lore, I strongly suggest reading Ghosts of Ascalon and Edge of Destiny. In my opinion both of these novels, with a third to come, adds greatly to the game-play.

As for grouping, everyone heals and everyone gets loot. Because of this there is no reason not to spend your day running around helping others.

Have fun and look me up if you ever need a hand.

Cheers!
