Smith.1826:

Yeup, paying attention to the TP will net you results very similar to this.

Right, the only difference is that I never risk of overbuying, so if kitten goes south, I don’t lose a lot of gold.

Slow and steady wins the race.

g e o.2589:

You can make about 2 Legenaries from those, you already have Gift of Fortune, you can easily buy other mats too if you sell that EXPENSIVE junk

Right, but it need world completion, as I mentioned before, no time to finish it. Currently sitting at 35%.

Just give me all mats that can be enough for 2 Legendaries, gonna make you one you want cuz i do have gift of mastery and make another myself after a while XD

I know I should have posted this on Mac forum but not many people look there. If anyone has tried yet please respond. Currently my Mac has 4gb ram, if I install Windows via Bootcamp and run GW2 on it will it be able to run on better graphics than now, I run Best Performance and still in LA I struggle. So if i install windows version on windows via bootcamp will it be able to run smoothly because I also have been playing on windows PC with 2gb ram and outside WvW I played on nice graphics, not the best ones but good ones, actually good ones.

Thanks for response and your definition is what I’ve been thinking about Non-native client. It’s just ridiculous that if you have PC with 4g you can run BEST APPEREANCE and on mac 4gb means that you wil struggle to run through Lion’s Arch

I play on mac and ever since it came out it has always been BETA. When is beta going to end? and also why is minimum 4gb RAM required? I heard its because of this non-native client but could someone explain what that means, as much as I could get I think that means that the client has been translated to suite Mac. Does this also mean that when Native Client for Mac will come out minimum requirements will lower and my i5 4gb macbook pro will be able to run the game smoothly?

Fortus.6175:

Im sitting on almost everything but 100 of each t6 mats and precursor, I have been at it for 12 FREAKING MONTHS!, I dont farm, i dont flip, I find doing the same activity more than 2-3 times to be EXTREMELY BORING AND BURNS ME OUT, Anet needs to sort out the drops of crystaline dust mostly, making it salvagable from ectos only increase the problem because now the prices of ectos go even higher! It took me about 5 months to GATHER 250 ectos, it was PAINFUL, very painful, there has to be an easier way to do this other than flipping tp, which increases the economy problem.

Im definitely down for that, also to put some restrictions to how many items you can sell/buy a week such a way we can tone down the amount of items and gold a flipper does, because all they do is increase the price of stuff and sink needed gold that is hard to come for legit and honest players like me.

Cheers friend I do the same stuff as you do. I hate repeating same stuff for tons of time to just accomplish a thing in this game. It is a beautiful game but economy stinks. I do not mean about dungeon token system I mean gold production and distribution system along with droprates. Only way I’ve much gold has been CoF p1 and Choo Choo train for champs because i really anted Etropy and at the start there were many people farming champs so I had a chance at getting money. Now all the rich people are either FLIPPERS or 24/7 FARMERS. I do enjoy running around maps gathering stuff especially in orr because there are many T5 and 6 mats but droprates stink, oh and did i just say many T6 mats? NO, there’s only mithrill ore orichalcum ore is about 3 on Cursed Shore NO MORE. 1 in 10 risen drop Heavy Moldy Bag and 1 in 5 drops T6. So T6 is 1 in 50.

maxels.4501:

Hello,
I am writing to speak of Falconer armor , human cultural medium armor (Tier 2).
The armor has some texture … really painful (especially the chest).
Just zoom on the chest model to see pixels, wide and ugly.

It ’might not be the only armor with this problem, so this topic is to shed light on this problem in general.

I do not think it is difficult to make the texture slightly better. I await answer

If you play on low settings that’s might be a problem. Just look through your graphic setting there is a box to be ticked on the bottom for best textures and detail

Jiffy.6524:

Can we get a lock feature so that we do not accidently salvage, destroy, or sell an item?

There are invisible and safe bags that do not appear at vendors but about salvaging you always have to confirm on masterwork and ABOVE

Essence Snow.3194:

The tp should never be the primary method of obtaining an item in this type of game. It should be the fall back, the supplemental tool, but not the obvious option. D3 made the same mistake albeit more flamboyantly. At least they have admitted it was a flaw and are working to getting players back out into the world and away from the AH. We however are pushing using the tp more and more as the primary method of acquisition. It’s quite saddening.

Well as i mentioned drop rates are too low and + with this inflation going on price limitations would just somehow slower this. Yes maybe a lot of people would have gold in their pockets nothing to spend on but the prices should not fit only 24/7 farmers.

Prices are really getting out of reality. Having an expensive weapon doesn’t mean anything anymore it just means that you just hit autoattck once on every invasion. I think it is time to set some price limitations on every type of sellable item or slightly increase their droprates. Have you seen anyone making gifts for legendary weapon and after that waiting for a precursor to drop? I dont think so, precursors have become only obtainable by money and soon some of them will get to 1000GOLD an impossible price unless you farm champion 24/7 maybe for 6 months. And also T6 and ectoplasms, they’re widely usable but poeople consider buying them much easier than farming as their droprates are LOW, LOW, LOW. Soon some of them might reach 40 silver EACH. I think price limitations should be somehow as follows:

Globs ectoplasm – Maximum 20 silver
Tier 6 fine – Maximum 20 silver
Tier 6 Common – Maximum 3 silver each
Tier 6 refined – Maximum 10 silver each

Legendary Precursors
Two Handed – maximum 300 gold
One Handed – maximum 250 gold
Offhand – Maximum 150 gold

OR instead of doing this let precursors drop more commonly and increase T6 droprates slightly too, this includes gatherable materials.

Actually from now on its a nice idea, they wont be fill up our slots in bags and they are account wide.

I am not fun of snakes myself but I got this idea and well here it is, please excuse me for bad drawing, I am not a good artist.

Viper
A dagger with a snake on its hilt that connects to blade.

Graphics
When equipped snake moves on your arm and leaves the blade pure silver
Dagger has a trail which is poison, whenever you swing it you leave poison behind
You leave poison as you run, this is the footfall effect
All dagger projectiles are now Viper instead of basic skill effect

That’s what Lineage 2 did some time ago, Underwear with stats only exclusive with ca$h or something.

Hiding in their Dominion of Winds until Anet gets bored coming up with new party for Aetherblades to crash.

Nilkemia.8507:

What? Um, where’s the source for this “you need 80 people to beat Tequatl” statement?

That’s what Dulfy said, but I think she meant 80 total noobs who only know autoattack.

Galtrix.7369:

I’d use it. It looks better than 90% of the dagger skins in the game already. Though, I do think using Viper projectiles is going a bit too far for one skin.

I am happy that you like it. All the graphics I wrote are similar kind of effects other legendaries have, I meant a Legendary from the start not just a skin.

Honestly, would you buy whatever Anet comes up with that is not RNG box, but it is also double in price?

Skill skin: Butterfly, this skin can be applied for any leaping skill. When you use the leaping skill instead of jumping you will grow a pair of wings and flatter to your destination like a butterfly.

Enjoy

My friend has got Rodgort, It is a very nice legendary it has nice footfalls, hand effect, weapon animation but something it totally missing. My other friend has an incinerator and it is also perfect, it has almost same effects as Rodgort with only one difference, The equipping effect. When you equip Incinerator a circle of lava drops down from your waist, I believe this will make Rodgort complete. And also the effect is ready just needs to be put on Rodgort aswell, I dont think it will take much time.

After this update some T7 mats will be exclusive to temples, I expect seeing lots of people there.

THIS IS THE RIGHT ANSWER. Wiki says that if you reskin ascended fractal capacitor mystic forge will register it as capacitor not as flower and after upgrading it will lose flower skin and become beta or whatever your next stage is.

There are combo fields and combo finishers, completing combo gives different effects based on field type and finisher type. You might also want to try elementalist or mesmer along with guardian

and WvW totally

Maybe chantry of secrets?

You did everything too fast, I am here since headstart. it took me long to understand this game and get every aspect, maybe I dont know some stuff even now. You should not have rushed. You joined at kinda bad time, updates come every two weeks and for last month we’ve been receiving grindfest content. DO NOT RUSH! and this game is not about your sats its about looks, Devs made it easy to get exotic gear so you could make yourself look cool with better looking gear even if it is of same power. I believe this whole “Ascended” nonsense was implemented due to people WHINING that getting exotics was wayyyy too easy and wanted something that was hard to get and had more power. Legendary weapons is a goal to set that needs every aspect of the game, some people want to make it short and just buy stuff but some of them cant be bought. The gift of mastery is the part where you cover exploration, events, WvW, and skill points. gift of fortune is mainly gold but also its RNG, other stuff are bought except for dungeon gifts and crafted gifts (their components can also be bought). So you now should do world completion, look through legendary weapons and go make them. I am kinda amazed how fast you made gold. I am not one of Grindguys that can grind same boring content every day so I am not also the richest one. if you can get gold that fast you can make legendary fast too.

I think this new splitter will split things into the original stats of the DESIGN, and original design of the STATS. so if you transmutated your twilight many times and last time it was on eg. Pearl Greatsword of berserker, you will get Twilight with 0 stats that need to be selected and Pearl crap greatsword.

TooBz.3065:

Yeah, isn’t that awesome. See the green sword. It’s a condition warrior.

Yes but some people don’t like the colours that Devs chose for us, will we be able to choose desired colour by sacrificing some gold?

In the broadcast it was said that each stat combo has its own colour for the weapon. I hope Dev will respond to this, if we transmutate desired colour with desired stats what will happen? For example, we transmutate white greatsword with its healing stats and give it power stats from another i.e. red greatsword. Will the new greatsword be White or still Red because of its stat? I believe most people are interested in this.

I don’t know about you guys but I get best of GW2 social side. I always ask some people if they need help, ask them that i need help etc. In Lion’s Arch some people were sitting in circle, talking. I joined them we had many different themes. Also if you want people to talk to you best way to start conversation in GW2 is to ask about gear, then tell your own opinion about it, some suggestions. Start talking about other theme meanwhile so your conversation won’t end. Take the theme out of gw2 and expand it, you will see how conversation will keep up.

Done on 1, doing on second. But 9 OMG and you still have no legendary? if you saved up all money you got from nine freakin completions it would be enough for a prec at least Congratulations tho, you are map-o-holic, and besides since I did my own completion when I look at other people who haven’t i’m like HEY HOBOm NOT ENOUGH MONEY FOR A BIT TRAVELLING? XD

Ty G E O , well it cost me alot of money true , but i also gained alot from all the t1-6 mats i gathered through my completion. enough for a prec ? well i doubt it to be honest …. but ty for the compliment though on my achievement . Someone mentioned the fact that they saw no reason for 9 completions since there are only 8 professions , well u are quite right , if not for the fact that i first made a norn guardian , finished that to 100% and then thought …. nah….. i like a tiny asuran guardian better ……

actually the 2 lowbies on my account ( a charr ranger and a sylvari guardian , lol yes a 3rd ) im planning to have them also 100 % worldcomplete before december 31st 2013.. that way i can have some fun time playing and gathering for their crafts , the map completion is easy on those professions ……ill keep u informed when operation been there , done that XXl is complete ( with prove screenshot off course )

Good Luck you with that, as soon as i log on I’m gonna add you on friend list, I might go for Snowden Drifts in some time, you can join me if you are from EU server.

Sometimes it bugs and shows that skill is open, if you kill some mobs it will unlock.

I started playing on the headstart but the character I created then is not in the use right now. The characters I have were created in december and january, Will i receive a gift?

I Believe we will get underwater maps after campaign for Deep Sea Dragon starts, and I believe it won’t be soon

Some groups os ascalonian ghosts are bugged, they look like living rather then ghosts, their ghostly effect is gone, while some groups have it.

How can I use transmutation stones to make it account bound?
I have a nice staff I got with Kharma in my main (back when Kharma was char related). If I transmute it into something else, the resulting item will not be soul bound?

If you transmutate it to a white item bought form a vendor, the junkiest thing of all the gear, it will become account-bound. As the white rarity gear has no soul binding it will become account bound, dunno how it is now but i have moved lot of stuff like that before.

problem is, it loses its “legendary” status when you transmute back into an exotic, when the new weapons are rolled out it will act as a “skin” and therefore it wont be upgraded to ascended!

No i got a friend who dragged his sunrsie between 3 characters, it is still legendary with full effects and purple name.

Done on 1, doing on second. But 9 OMG and you still have no legendary? if you saved up all money you got from nine freakin completions it would be enough for a prec at least Congratulations tho, you are map-o-holic, and besides since I did my own completion when I look at other people who haven’t i’m like HEY HOBOm NOT ENOUGH MONEY FOR A BIT TRAVELLING? XD

Ever since I created a mesmer I always looked at them like they were one of the Nobles and Royals, after a while I started looking at other classes differently. Now i just want to start a bit of a campaign that all the mesmer would look ROYAL, RICH and NOBLE!

who are the eles, just circus freaks who breather flames, necromancer obssesed with dead and undead, the rangers that work on land and thieves that steal rangers’ work, or the crazy engineers who blow up everything, the warriors who are but soldiers, guardian is the highest of them, lowborns guardian is our Knight, the Royal Knight.

get them from fractals, its extremely easy to get a stack in no time

I am also doing fractals for a capacitor and can not give up almost 1k relics for obsidian shards that I do not really need right now, I just want to be done with gift of mastery and clovers if I ever will make a legendary.

Knote.2904:

I don’t really understand why the mats are account bound but the item isn’t.

I agree that they should be account bound.

Would be awful getting a legendary for your “main” character and later finding out you end up playing a different one instead most of the time and that legendary is going to waste.

well you could use a couple of transmutation crystals to drag it over the characters but it will cost you much, is it still possible? And also redditor data mined that something like Un-soulbinding is coming to gem store that will make thing account bound but I think it will become soulbound on other char when you equip it.

I always check on GW2state.com/temple and it is always correct, but balth temple is never open on any EU servers. I have seen some NA servers open but cant guest them from EU.

The rewards for JPs are so negligible that I don’t think there is anything wrong with giving someone a free ride. Honestly, you could probably get more loot by fighting for that 1min instead of waiting for a mesmer to port you the the JP chest.

This is true. The rewards other then for Living Story puzzles are pretty pathetic and not even worth it anyway so i dont see it really being that much of a problem, if it ALL gave level 80 precursers and Exotics then maybe but currently no.

Anet mentioned before that new, upcoming T7 mats will be also obtainable by JPs, I’m sorry if the fact is incorrect because i read it in one of the posts on forum.

IceBlink.4317:

After reading the whole thread, I’m of the opinion someone got charged to be ported and is now moaning discreetly about it.

You mean to say I got charged for porting and moaning about it? You also said you are the one who read whole thread, I also mentioned in one of the replies that I am the mesmer myself and port, oops PORTED people to JP chests until all of them stopped saying “Thanks.” And I am not the only one they’ve been rude to I believe. I think until this community will become nicer they do not deserve the un-earned credit, THIS COMMUNITY IS NOW TREHEARNE!!
