Clocktower Instance queueing

So when it restarts the instance after you wait the 5-40 seconds for that round to be over does the next instance also have that little time left or are you getting impatient and swapping instances instead of waiting for the next one to begin?

RNG as a concept: Discuss

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: clarkcd.6532

clarkcd.6532

An example of a recent in game addition that many, many people complained about on the boards. Unidentified Fossilized Insects

The item is a completely random drop, you can’t sell it or trade it to another person and there is no other way to get it even though there is a specialized currency in the area already. A system such as this puts each of us at the complete mercy of RNG. At least with other items of rarity there is an outlet for those of us who don’t hit the RNG jackpot, the TP.

We have had events in the past where items are introduced as rare drops but are also sold from merchants (SAB comes to mind). During such events I know that I can get the item I want through three different methods. I can grind specialized currency, I can purchase it from another player on the TP and finally I can hit the RNG jackpot and get a drop. Even if I didn’t get the drop I wanted during a run of SAB I didn’t get frustrated because I made incremental progress. Progress, however small, is still progress.

If you have no achievements selected your dailies show up. If you complete those than your monthlies show up. Until you complete your monthly I don’t know of a way to not show at least one achievement.

You can delete all of your characters. You’d then be starting the game like you did the first time. I don’t see why anyone would want to “reset” their account though.

Except for the achievements earned on the account.

Also remember that the RNG spoons do have a sell value so you may want to get your 10s instead of just trashing them.

Why should someone gain a mechanical advantage because they chose to level up Weaponsmithing and Armorsmithing on two characters instead of the same one?

I believe it’s because the “Learn How to Dodge” is overriding your green star. Go learn that and then that should go away and hopefully your green star will return.

Where to find Hot Stones?

You said you were farming them in Kessex Hills and a JP when Dulfy expressly says Lornar’s Pass. I provided the link for you and others that might not have seen it. Glad you got it regardless of where you got it.

The thing about Dulfy is she says A place to get them, not THE place. I don’t know if she has any plans to make a list of every location that drops them or not.

Leather crafting Back pack

in Crafting

Posted by: clarkcd.6532

clarkcd.6532

I know this thread has gone the route of insanity but I’ll give it a shot.

I have 400 leather crafting and this backpack really bugs me. I wouldn’t mind if it had some random ambiguous leather pieces but to blatantly have a bear’s head on the back pack feels wrong to me.

The bolded part is I believe what is bugging most people about your stance. You love animals IRL and don’t want to be reminded of their demise when it comes to making leather armor. You would rather have the ambiguity as to what leather is made of instead of it being in your face. Either way leather comes from killing animals and wearing their skin. That is the one thing about leather that is not ambiguous nor should it ever be.

I do not support cruelty to animal, thus I do not support having a dead bear as a display.

Displaying a kill, whether on a backpack for crafting or as a helmet for armor, is in no way cruel to the animal in question. It just brings into stark reality exactly what leatherworking is and where the base materials come from. Plus it’s not like we’re having a discussion about huntsman or jeweler or something like that having a bear head.

I hope that ArenaNet reiterate this decision.

ArenaNet just may reiterate their decision.

Questions - Please Help Out

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: clarkcd.6532

clarkcd.6532

First, after the new update, I cannot seem to locate where the World Completion banner is on the World Map. Before, when I pressed M, it would bring up the map with a box on the top left corner for World Completion, then a box under it for the area I am in, Queensdale Completion. However, now both are gone. Could I have accidentally turned it off? Could someone please tell me how to bring it back again?

They seem to be ok in my game. Click on the eye icon in the lower left and make sure you have both of those options turned on.

My second question is about combat. As you all know. The left mouse key rotates around the camera, but does not affect your player. The right mouse key directs the direction your player is going. Is there anyway to switch that? It feels way more natural in an MMORPG for me to be directing the player with the left mouse key instead of the right and it is really throwing off my PvE. What I am asking for is if anyone could tell me how to use the left mouse key to direct my player instead.

If there is I don’t know how.

Did they change the Vial of Condensed Mists Essence to Bloodstone Dust? Or are you just confused?

They did in fact add a recipe that replaces the mist essence with bloodstone dust. For example:

Salvage Kits

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: clarkcd.6532

clarkcd.6532

They should allow stacking but just like regular items have a stack limit. In this case the limit would be 25. No infringing upon mystic salvage kit but allow multiple partially used kits to be combined.

Maybe I salvage more than most people but I can’t imagine having half used kits hanging around more than an hr or so before I’d used them all salvaging.

I’m willing to volunteer to help with my max armorsmith. You’d have to send me the gold for the recipe as I don’t have it but I could use the cash for the skill points. Also I don’t know if you can send mail across servers so that may be a problem.

You can jump on the stem of the shroom and from there onto the cap.

People really should read this. Just because you can’t jump to where you think you should doesn’t mean you can’t jump at all. This jump can be made every time if you know where to jump to.

Second Death on Warrior's Vengeance

Posted by: clarkcd.6532

clarkcd.6532

The workaround I use is to wait for the Vengeance buff to wear off. The way you can tell is your dead body will stop glowing orange. Once it wears off you can res normally. You would think that like most buffs it would end on death.
