2 Missing items

with the recipes, you have to consume it on the character you want to use it on, because it will only turn up for the character you consumed it on. it is not an account unlock. it is a character unlock, even though the recipe sheet is account bound, the unlock isn’t.

Outfit Packs never to return its outfits?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

Bandit Sniper Appearance Pack was never a separate outfit, unfortunately. the others were, and will probably return as such in time

You want to say Bandit Sniper’s Outfit is unlikely to return at all, even with bundle? I dont think so. It was only once on market if I can recall.

oh no, I’m pretty sure it’ll return, things tend to return to the gem store. I just wished that when it does return it comes as both the pack and a separate outfit. I fail at typing today, so it probably didn’t come across like that though

Better use of Karma Points?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

karma always has at least one use (if you ignore gold conversion): obsidian shards, and with the legendary mastery making legendaries more accessible, I’d say it still has its uses in regards to the expansion

F2P Experience: Complaint

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

I don’t think this would be such an issue if people didn’t introduce their friends to the game with false expectations of what they are going to encounter.

a lot of people have had positive experiences with the F2P game. it is only when they start with friends and their friends are telling them that they can go to LA, or DR, or do that skill point from the start, etc. I think if their friends knew what they should expect, their experiences would be much better, like those who pick it up alone.

saying that, I think it would be a great thing to open up the cities to F2P players and allow them to travel between the cities, so they can see the differences between the areas, and interact with more people

Concerned about WvW and World Options

in WvW

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

After many attempts to join the server I cannot find a time of day, or day of week that the server is not full.

A “Full” server is a server with a number of Active WvW Players above a certain threshold. it has nothing to do with PvE players, or time of day.

you’ll be waiting a long time before the server registers as anything but full, even when the active player count goes down.

In order to stay with my guild when not on their home server I have to possibly pay every two months in order to continue playing with them.

not sure what you mean by this.

I’m not sure how selecting a server on f2p accounts works, but if it’s how it works on paid accounts, he could have accidentally selected an EU server to play on.

I’d ask your friend what server he’s on (the name of it) and check to make sure he’s on a NA server (if nothing else than to rule it out as the reason).

64bit or 32bit

in Account & Technical Support

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

go to your account, then game content. download the 32-bit setup from there. once downloaded, rename it to gw2.exe and put it where you have the game installed (usually C:\Program Files (x86)\Guild Wars 2\) and overwrite the gw2.exe already there.

after that, put the -32 in your command line. it will stay the 32 bit client that way.

hope that helps

it makes sense that it procs takedown round. despite it not doing direct damage, it is still a strike against a foe, which is the trigger for the trait.

Gem prices have doubled in price.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

the crazy gold price is caused by players exchanging gold for gems, but not many exchanging gems for gold. it is constantly in flux because the pool of gems is not infinite, as some people seem to think.

the rise this time is probably caused by the new glider skin being released, as well as the aviator sunglasses return.

Scholar's Pack Collection bug

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

I located the problem. it’s not just about completing the story line. You need to complete on a character with the order you chose to join earlier on. Vigil for vigil belt, priory for priory belt, whispers for whispers belt. This needs more clarification or put the items on separate story instances.

I see people say that sometimes, but the character I completed it on was in the vigil, and I decided to go for the whispers backpiece because I liked it better. never had a problem getting the whispers belt, or any of the other pieces for it.

if that is the case for every other back piece, then I guess I need to start taking notes on who’s in which order

I voted for Dragon’s Watch. not because I liked it. I didn’t like any of the options, but Dragon’s Watch was the least cringe worthy to me, and with it being pretty passive, best described the group of ‘heroes’ I’ve come to tolerate and mostly ignore as I did everything.

Customized soundtrack isn't working.

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

open the M3U in notepad (open notepad >> click file then open >> browse to the Music folder >> click the drop down to the right of the file name box and change it from ‘Text Documents’ to ‘All Files’ >> double click the m3u)

in notepad you should see lists of things like this:
#EXTINF:113,MusicName
\Users\User\Music\Music.mp3

thing is, the game needs the full location of the mp3 to work properly, so if yours looks like that, you need to change them to something like this:
#EXTINF:113,MusicName
C:\Users\User\Music\Music.mp3

just throwing this out there, because this tripped me up before with custom playlists.

hope it’s understandable, and it helps some.

Weyandt's Revenge pitch black at torches maze

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: nottsgman.8206

nottsgman.8206

me and my gf had an issue with this as well. the torches cast no light at all in the maze, only the glowing orb that you’re supposed to follow around (but only one person can see that).

we both play full screen mode, so that wasn’t the issue.

edit: added a screenie I took just now. you can see the faint purple glow of the torch on the right side that isn’t casting any light.

it gets slightly lighter with light adaptation turned on (which I don’t play with), but the torches still cast no light.

if no other events are happening in the area, after the lodestone event you have to follow him back to Degun Shun. he’ll show Drizla his pet to impress her, then he’ll turn into a merchant after all the dialogue has finished.

if the event where Degun Shun is being attacked is happening, or it was completed/starting just after the lodestone event, then you might have to wait for the lodestone event to happen again.
