Dodge with " V " key is works well for me but not double tap with " W " or other keys . You can try dodge with " V ".

“When it’s done.”

:D

Strange so strange… main game is still not done ( If you ask me it’s still in beta phase) and we are talking about Flame & Frost.

Sure, we ( me and my wife ) will not. I don’t wanna pay for BugWars2’s expension.

Mark Katzbach.9084:

Please understand, just because we put this limitation in to stop the RMT spam, does not mean we are not working on the greater issue.

We wanted to get this change in to put an immediate stop to the spam while other teams are working on addressing the rest of the problem.

Yes ofc I don’t mean that and for stoping leak it good action but limiting gold trade ( like with mail ) and account bound items ( like legendaries ) can be stop or at least can be slow down them. Since their source is high priced items and stolen accounts.

So ppl keep reporting bots and ban hammer working and limited gold trade and without high priced items they can’t be farm enough gold or items for selling.

And maybe system admins must be check rich players money source also.

Interesting no-one cares about these fundamental issue.

There’s 1 profession called commando =D

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Commando

This profession does not exist. It was created by ArenaNet specifically for April Fools’ Day 2011.

I want one more heavy armoured profession since i only like to play with heavy ^^

Mark Katzbach.9084:

As some of you may be aware, we have recently had a rash of gold sellers spamming your forum inboxes. In an effort to halt this activity, we will be implementing new limitations on private messaging. From this point onward, players will have to wait 72 hours from their first forum login before they are able to send a private message on the forums.
We have blocked all the accounts involved and this new limitation will prevent gold sellers from abusing our forum systems in the future.
Thank you for your understanding.

How is this solution to the problem?

You have to solve the source of problem instead of just limitations on private messaging.

They are selling Legendary items with your system not only Gold.

Like making account bound that items and gold trade limitation for per day and week and month can be start point of solving this issue ( like real life credit cards ).

I’m pretty sure people of this community can find any other good solutions.

And I must add i’m not using forum’s pm system maybe couple of times and i don’t care about it but game.

I just wanna add something from today’s " I love you " forum’s pm..

For me " Across all characters, I have played for 1,041 hours 4 minutes over past 4 months " still waiting one kittening precursor with all other mats are ready.

But kittening gold farmers can sell it on TP or at their website.

Go arena.net allow to sell every kittening kitten on TP so your honest players can suffer more and more.

I’m just sad all the way sad.

Anything else Anet should change based on your personal opinion?

Personal opinion? I think a lot of people have to wear sunglasses in order to read things on this forum…

I can’t agree with you more. I am thinking of buying a Welding Helmet.

Really enough with this “I LOVE YOU” gold selling PMs at this forum….

Ofc they will not do anything or fix in near future since as a general rule, money is always honey. But maybe they will add this someday after they figure out new ways to earn money from us and it’s ok cuz this is Free to Play game and they need to find money somehow. But i must say i miss to play P2P games and you paying for development and you can question what’s goin on with P2P system.

I am definitely working on the precursor scavenger hunt, but like others have said, things like this take time and I want to get it right. Not to mention, it’s not the only thing on my plate. Please do not expect to see the precursor scavenger hunt in the next patch. I may be awesome, but I am still only human and this is a fairly large amount of work to get done and done right. Please be patient!

Any news from scavenger hunt after a month?

Don’t you get it ? Arena.NET loves it with it current state. Actually I’m pretty sure gem prices will increase more and other mats since some ppl ( you know it already if you following reddit ) buying huge sum of gem with their real life money and TP is money fountain for Arena.NET and they are sending New Year Celebrations Cards to their huge sum gem buyers with team signs.

So please don’t complain if you playing this game since you know there is a legendaries TP and I bet Arena.Net behind it for pumping gem store and their cash flow.

And Arena.NET don’t have enough team to manage any patch or bug but they already have an economist for it from start and he pretty well managed to kitten all of us.

I’m loling badly atm..

Why ? Cuz just checked : http://www.arena.net/jobs/

So they are actively looking for motivated people to join their team !

Here,,, one of their reason why working at ArenaNet could be your dream job:

majorkong.9073 : IRL I’m a professional gambler and have supported my family with it for over a decade.

( Sorry since website functions not working again like quote )

Just look from different perspective..

This is online game and we are playing this game with some underage children

“First you must not caused them to try to online gambling for any reason”

Maybe just maybe gambling can be a fun pastime and a thrill for responsible adults, as long as it is kept under control.

However, gambling can lead to addiction or financial ruin if you don’t have your gambling under control and if you don’t have the financial resources to support your gambling activities.

According to Consumer Fraud Reporting.org, gambling is legal in certain forms—such as lotteries—in most states, and other types of gambling are legal in parts of Nevada and other parts of the U.S., but there are laws in place that declare gambling as an adult activity only.

Rules are in place to help keep underage children from gambling.

The minimum allowable age of a patron in a gaming ( online or not ) establishment is different in each state. While some states stipulate that patrons have to be at least 21 years of age to play, others have a minimum age requirement as low as 17 or 18 years of age.

The Gambling Commission did an extensive study in 2008 and they found a great deal of important information in regards in regards to children and gambling:

~Introduction to gambling early on in life can increase the likelihood of becoming an addictive gambler later in life.

~Children of parents who are heavy gamblers are more likely to become problem gamblers themselves.

~Boys are more likely than girls to develop gambling problems.

~Children with gambling problems are more likely to use drugs and alcohol.

~Children with gambling problems are more likely to experience depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts and or attempts.

~Children with gambling problems are more likely to perform poorly at school.

Anyways, there is a law against it in every country.

And if this Mystic Forge is related with online gambling it’s against law.

You must be 18 years or older to gamble ( online or not ) in Washington State and ArenaNet located in Bellevue, Washington.

Since this game ESRB rate is Teen.

TEEN
Titles rated T (Teen) have content that may be suitable for ages 13 and older. Titles in this category may contain violence, suggestive themes, crude humor, minimal blood, simulated gambling, and/or infrequent use of strong language.

Simulated Gambling : Player can gamble without betting or wagering real cash or currency

But since in this game you can buy anything with real cash.

So it is our responsibility to keep our children safe and share the affects of gambling and it’s addictiveness of any kind gambling.

From angry customer to ArenaNet…

Well ArenaNet if you are not going to do something for us ( for honest players ) at least give us equal chance with precursor cheaters.

Still I’m mad myself why I didn’t use that opportunity like others. Yeah since I’m trying to play this game honest like many of others.

ArenaNet didn’t banned or punished anyone for precursor cheating so they just patched that and being cheater for precursor is fine and most of cheaters talking here now against us. Yea current system is fine for them or something like.

This scene just makes me think why i playing this game. There is no real motivation at least for me.

At least i can watch my progress at WoW ( or etc ) till get my reward.

Anyways I’m not playing so much GW2 anymore after loosing gamble too much.

Consider leaving this game behind like a gambling rehabilitation for me in this case.

Looks like everything is a means to an end. Yeah good halloween event and you’ll add more etc etc etc but I gave up on the game for gambling rehabilitation issues.

You know why and how..

I tried so far following mice ( with wired and wireless – if supports )

Razer Naga / Model : RZ01-0028
A4-X7 / Model : XL-747H
Logitech LX6 / Model : M-RCF112
Logitech G9x / Model : M-U0006

Many “honest persons” have become discouraged by the absence of real fix or at least official announcemet . I’m not saying everyone is cheater, some ppl just lucky about it but just couple.. But hey what’s the point of playing if we will not get anything at the end.

Are you going to play at real Casino with your income if you are not addictive ?

Looks like ArenaNet just wanna milking us without giving. They are just saying Buy Gems, Trade with Golds, Buy Mats, Create 2000+ kitten, Use …. hole Gamble Machine and saying " Sorry You Are Not Lucky This Time But Hey What About Buying Gems With Your Credit Cards" and all over again..

See they are just milking us / our money with ADDICTIVE GAMBLE like other Chinese, Korean game firms.

I tried all over constructive at other topics, but at the end i found my hands empty without any official saying.

Btw i’m just watching this topic and not posting anything since i have nothing to tell more but, is it same for the A.Net ?

What’s the purpose of this radio silence ? Tell us something cuz ppl going to be more paranoid every second, Legendary Precursors price climbing like a mad.

A.Net ( Linsey ), i guess it’s time to explain your thoughts to us about this problem.

Are you willing to punish non-cheaters, honest players and encourage the cheaters or will you punish cheaters and giving us proper way to obtain Precursors ?

One day I caught myself smiling for no reason at wishing well, then I realized I was thinking of my wasted efforts and is all that we see or seem but a dream within a dream?

Ah and i must add i will / wanna craft Eternity but not with this way….

I wanna spend my time in game with playing but without gambling or paying someone with huge sum of money or my time except A.Net oneway or another.

Since Legendary Precursor is 355 bucks in gold sellers and 350 bucks in TP.. What a coincidence ??? !!!!

There is a link fo Eternity if you wanna check it…

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Eternity

and the last think i wanna say before leaving this area for a while please listen this cover for Fear Not This Night from Taylor, Lara, and Malukah..

Peace… This is just a game for fun…. Azazil out for a while…

@Wahaha.7938 Did you read my post till end before answer first question ? Since it’s not a real question and it answer itself in same post or why did you not answer whole post anyways….

Ah and before please read again first post of this topic too since its why we are talking about..

Can i ask ? Whats wrong with Legendary Precursor Recipe ( not so easy to craft but with enough satisfaction ) and Account Bount Weapon ?

Ok maybe some players can’t sell it at TP for their own profit and pocket but ppl can craft their own weapons with same time with current way.

There is a alot of suggestion on this topic ( included my suggestion at the very first page of topic ) for how to craft Legendary Precursors with recipe.

And ppl acting so aggressively. Hey we are not talking about creating or changing Legendaries. It’s just about Legendary Precursors. But i guess ppl forgetting how hard to make it after getting Legendary Precursors.

You can’t start way to hard quest with impossible. ( Don’t tell me i have x etc weapons in my bank or my guild is so rich or i’m so rich )

I can pay good amount of money to A.Net if i enjoy with the game but so sorry not to Players or Gold Sellers.

Yea there is a way to get it with current way. You can buy from TP ( Player or Gold Seller). You can try with xxx with xxx weapons for nothing or you can wait for Random Worl Drop like a mad. or you can buy it from Gold Seller websites.

But there is a simple solution. Make it Account Bound so it will cut all arguing. Bound it to real in-game recipe so ppl can trust they can get it no matter how need to hard work for it.

I can understand some ppl getting angry cuz their profits will cut and they can’t get golds. ( i don’t wanna say that but all we know some players also selling their golds and items to gold sellers for real bucks. )

Am I really stupid for not using that cheats and bugs really ? You know on reddit and other couple of wesites good amount of members / users gaved good enough info about Legendary Precursors bug. But some players wont use it. Why ? Really we are stupid or we just wanna play this game clean and enjoy around with everything ?

Anyways also we can be sure we will cut Gold / Item Sellers way to profit from it.

At the end A.Net will win, Players will win and so sorry poor Gold Sellers.

Your own words about it and as you said you are just after…

Alright fine, you guys are right, this new system is perfect the way it is, the old system where the chances of getting a base weapon with enough tries was more reasonable was terrible.

You win, lets encourage arenet to keep the changes, I’ll keep making hundreds of gold off this new system.

Good for you but are you sure you readed first post of this topic ? And if you are angry for it going to cut your earnings sorry bud but we are talking here for greater good not for personal story and gains.

My suggestions are for the betterment of the whole game, it would cost me hundreds of gold if my suggestions are used because it would kill my market and stop me from making easy money off base weapons. I just want the game to be better.

But if you want the base weapon process to stay dumb the way it is then great, I get to make more money this way.

The funny thing it was actually fine before the “bug fix”, it was nearly impossible to make money off it then without exploiting the bug.

Well if you readed my suggestions at first page and others I’m Just suggestioning “Precursors must be account bound with some type of recipes”.. and i guess and looks like we agreed on that.

And also looks like you confessed using exploits before patch for making money with selling precursors. How nice i feel like an idiot for playing honestly without using any bugs.

@Shogoki.2085
How do you fight with smugglers, cheaters and thieves in basic economics ?

You don’t – that’s a matter for the law, not for economics. If there’s cheating going on, then it’s up to ArenaNet to stop that, but it has nothing to do with making items cheaper or being obtained in different ways. As far as I’m aware all previous methods of cheating have been patched.

If you say that so you must read and search more for economics but you are wrong and this is wrong topic for arguing for it. Google is your best friend.

Anyways lets stay on topic and so I hope Linsey or another one will answer or check this topic soon cuz its going to out of route as always.

Shogoki.2085:

What’s the difference between buying a precursor from the Trading Post for 150g, or them increasing the price of Icy Lodestones so that it costs 150g more?

Because Icy Runestones are sold from an NPC vendor. They will always be the same price, so no matter how slowly you acquire wealth, you WILL eventually be able to buy them all if you find the legendary worth the effort.

With the current system you either subject yourself to the RNG (and still maybe never get one) or you have to compete with other players’ disposable income.

I wanna repeat myself again… or just look couple post above..

Gold Seller > Farming Enough Gold > Buying or Using Cheat for getting Legendary Precursors > Selling for real money > Getting more Legendary Precursors > Selling for real money… …. …. ….

Not A.Net or players winning.. Only just only gold / item sellers…

So it’s why it must be have it own recipe and account bound..

Well some of you approving current state of the Legendary Precursors like 300+ gold. So i really wish developers will check ( with ip range ) your inventory and trade history for that.

How many Legendary Precursors have you sold or how many you got in your history or how many you have already…

Still some of you don’t get it.. Gold and Item Sellers using them for getting more and more gold for selling some ppl again.

Gold Seller > Farming Enough Gold > Buying or Using Cheat for getting Legendary Precursors > Selling for real money > Getting more Legendary Precursors > Selling for real money… …. …. ….

Not A.Net or players winning.. Only just only gold / item sellers…

So it’s why it must be have it own recipe and account bound..

Anyways looks like you are trolling this topic Jihoko.3927… I’ll not answer your posts after this.

Jihoko.3927:

Heh, not surprised to see a passive-aggressive reply like this but you couldn’t be further from the truth. ……

Well first we are talking here about Legendary Precursors and not for Legendary Weapons.

Do you have any idea of making Legendary Weapons from Legendary Precursors ?

If is it not enough for you i don’t wanna say anything or you have no idea what you are talking about.

Since this topic for climbing prices of Legendary Precursors and etc… not about Legendary Weapons.

@Jihoko… Sorry really i’m so sorry but you sound like another gold seller at this forum or at least you are after your own little fortune from TP or something like that. Since there is a enough adventure ( for money and time etc… ) after Legendary Precursors for Legendary Weapons.

Hey Linsey,

Well you can / must reveal information needed for Legendary Precursors.

With this information…

1. Players can really work hard for it.

1.a. Recipe must be around 10-20g
1.b. Mats must equal or little more with other named Mystic Forge weapon recipes like Naegling GS…

Naegling (Greatsword) = 1 Scroll + 20 Coins, + 100 Orichalcum Ingots + 50 Powerful Bloods

for example…

Dusk & Dawn (Greatsword) =

After buying recipe from special NPC ( like Claw of Jormag’s npc )

First Step = 50 x Dungeon 1 Token + 50 x Dungeon 2 Token + 50 x Dungeon 3 Token + 50 x Dungeon 4 Token = Specail Dungeon Mystic Forge Token

Last Step = 5 Scroll + 100 Coins, + 200 Orichalcum Ingots + Special Dungeon Mystic Forge Token

2. Gold / Item Sellers can’t profit with it. They are selling it for 355 USD $ atm like other Legendary Precursors.

3. Ah and Legendary Precursors must be Account Bound for sake of other mats price.

Rodarin.6058:

Why would people get gems though anet for real money if they can buy third party gold and get a lot more?

+1

Tbh i will not play this game if this happens, actually it happened already but we will see what ArenaNet will do about it, for us and for their game’s sake.

We are talking for nothing here. Gold Farmers and Sellers still out there and they are farming and using trade system very well atm and crushing this game’s economy. Maybe some of em talking and watching and laughing to this topic or even maybe trolling on forum too, nevermind…

So lets put it in a nutshell.. If ArenaNet will not do anything about it ppl can buy any in-game items from sellers and someone with enough money can rule the game at current state. Its why i start my words with " i will not play this game if this happens "…

Just use “buy gw2 items” search term on google and you will see, they are selling Dusk for USD$355.50 or Orichalcum Ingot *250 USD$25.46 etc etc.

( really ? with .50 or .46 ??? )

Most importantly we are still keep talking for nothing but just game, this is not our responsibility…

I just wanna play clean game…

I’m just waiting Anet response about this situation and for real solution if we keep continue to play game.

I don’t have proof yet but did you check " Black Lion Trading Company " for some items price ?

e.g. :
Dusk ( GreatSword for epic item ) 274.99 gold atm min and max 299.99
The Legend ( Staff for epic item ) 182.99 min
etc.. etc… etc.

or please check crafting mats.

So in-game atm you are fighting with gold selling and farming with diffrent ways but most of gold sellers using this method and BLTC (TP) .. Not everyone but they are selling this kind items with huge golds for their profits.

Same thing happened at WoW, Lineage and most of MMO and now here. You know they have time to spend, they have ppl to employ etc etc. But most of us just casual or semi casual players.

I can understand some items must be hard to get but at least you must find the way to fight with this. Like you can reveal that ( e.g epic base items ) item recipes so ppl can work for it, can spend time for it in your game.

But this way you are just allowing or leading gold-sellers for getting more gold for their pockets.

At first place you must fight about this if you ask me.

Hey VickPayne.9781,

At Game Menu > Options you will find Control Options on the left tab menu so use Restore Default option first.

After be sure using Ctrl + Right mouse button at Skill Bar " 1 " key.

I hope this will help.
