Guild Wars 2

Halloween update is on the 21st, so the preview might come next week.

they should unlock at level 13

not sure if this works anymore (don’t have a mac to try it), but I thought I’d post the link in case it helps.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/audio/Custom-Music-for-Mac-Client

it’s pretty easy to do.

1. find the Music folder in Users\[Your Name]\Documents\Guild Wars 2 if it doesn’t exist, create one.
2. create a playlist in your media player of choice.
3. save the playlist somewhere you can find it (like your desktop), using one of these names (depending on what you want)
Ambient – Default playlist when no other criteria are met
Battle – “Large” fights involving many foes (~5 or more enemies); some personal story steps; PvP
BossBattle – World bosses and some Dungeon bosses; some personal story steps; some Activities
City - When inside one of the main cities, such as The Black Citadel, but not always
Defeated – Upon being Defeated
MainMenu – At the character select screen
NightTime – When in some explorable areas and it is nighttime (the moon is out)
Underwater – Any time the breathing apparatus is equipped. Overrides most other playlists
4. move your playlist to the Music folder in Users\[Your Name]\Documents\Guild Wars 2.
5. open the game and enjoy your new music.

there is already something like what you’re asking for already in the game that tells you you’re in combat. the area around the skill/utility ui changes to yellow when in combat.

Jado Cast, they added 2 hearts to the start of the map with the feature patch, just talk to the first scout near the black citadel and they should get uncovered.

you could try seeing if they are set to show (as far as I can tell, you only need one character past level 10). press m to bring up the map, then click the little eye icon in the bottom left corner. make sure the check box next to vistas (and everything else) is checked.

map completion information is level locked now, I believe it is available at level 15, if you are below that level, then that could explain why you aren’t seeing the overlay.

they have come back before, I’m sure they will again, it’s just a matter of waiting

POIs unlock at level 7, Vistas unlock at level 10, I think it all unlocks on the map by level 15, but I could be wrong about that. if your wife is below that level, that could be why she isn’t seeing them on her map.

press m to bring up the map, and click the little eye icon in the bottom left, take a look at the check boxes and see if everything is on, you might be missing one. hope that helps

with the red out of zone markers, and the story marker, it looks like the norn starter instance, which is why I mentioned it. however Inculpatus cedo is right that some map icons are level gated.

has your friend got past the first story instance? map icons and such only show after it has been done, and you are loaded into the real world.

I believe you need to pick one of the three items for the level 6 reward. once you click on one, the accept button should activate.

also resets if you change dyes or transmute armor

it didn’t give you a charge, that is just the icon they used to represent the wardrobe. the icon can be clicked and it will tell you information about the wardrobe system

eleshazar.6902:

I finished the Fine Dining one just fine. There is a certain item that you need in order to trigger it. It should be on Dulfy.net. If you check there she tells you which steak you have to consume first in order to trigger the collection.

EDIT: http://dulfy.net/2014/09/08/gw2-items-collections-guide/#Fine_Dining_Collection

That link shows which steak you have to consume first in order to unlock the collection. IMO they should change it so that any steak eaten will unlock it, but for now just do it with that one first.

the unlock listed there is not completely true, I unlocked this collection by accident by eating Plate of Truffle Steak.

I think this is because it is a soulbound or account bound reward, I forget which.

are the items you’re trying to use upgrades on level 80 pieces?

are you trying to use level 80 upgrades? if you are, that’s the problem. the backpack is level 78

the instance “should” be by the troll cave to the east (where you get to Sleive’s Inlet vista), at least it used to be. Maybe try going over there and seeing if there is an instance marker?

I took a look at that, and after a bit of testing with dyes and transmutes, doing both of these things reset minis and finishers. so, really, clicking the apply button for anything, does it.

I noticed this problem with finishers too (haven’t equipped any minis yet, so can’t say on that one). it seems fairly random when it happens.

iron dye doesn’t look too bad on some things, neither does midnight ice, but it depends on what you are dying

is your friend online?

if they are, try typing in their character name instead of account name. I’ve come across this before, and doing that got around it

I know this is about wvw, but the same thing happens with the same types of golems in pve

not sure if this only happens to me, but my finishers will not stay selected in the new wardrobe. I have a few finishers, and no matter which one I select, after a while it always reverts back to default (the first one in the list).

that is awesome! thank you
sent you a tip

hey, saw this thread a while ago and wanted to see if you could help some.

I have an asura ranger who’s wearing tier 2 cultural and the reading glasses at the moment, but I want him to look more…well…like a ranger. I would like him to keep the reading glasses though

I have all gem store armors, HOM armor skins, asura cultural skins and not against buying others or running dungeons for them. colours can be whatever fits.

can’t wait to see what you come up with.

close as I could get it. hope it helps some

they were made account bound a while ago.

you have to have them in your bag and talk to the black lion weapon vendor. they should exchange them for you. I say should because it was a while ago when I did it, but hopefully they still do.

it is very much possible, done it myself during the event

in your pic, you need to climb the rubble the beam is sticking out of. start climbing near the wooden “barrier”, it can be a bit finicky, but it is possible

she’s in vigil keep, by the other guild vendors

they are usually there about 1 hour after the update

I don’t understand, if “running everywhere makes the game all that more boring”, how would a mount make a difference? you’re still running everywhere, even if you had a mount.

how is a mount more immersive than running on foot?

yeah those are serious questions, because I really don’t understand how it would be different in any way.

if anet did incorporate mounts, I very much doubt that they would circumvent wp fees, or go any faster than players with a speed buff.

I don’t particularly find the idea of mounts attractive, and frankly don’t understand the obsession some people have with them. in this game, I think they’d be an eyesore, but that is just my opinion.

saying that, I do like your idea of mini-games using them.

withdraw and deposit buttons have been missing from the bank since the wallet came in, simply because you can no longer deposit or withdraw gold from the bank anymore, it all goes to the wallet (which means all characters have access to all funds all the time)

also the bird animation gets stuck and stays visible on the ranger until they re-log, or switch maps. the one playing the ranger doesn’t always see it, but party members and everyone else around does.

could you maybe post a screenshot? would make it alot easier to see what you’re looking for

party member’s names have always shown, even with the setting to show names off. you won’t see the names of non-party members though.

I doubt it is because they are adjusting for the new faces, seeing as the faces are already in the kits (had a few in the bank). hopefully they’ll re-add the kits again soon though

if this is a legitimate error/bug, talk to your co-owner (when they come online), they should be able to reinstate your rank.

you might want to contact support, instead of posting on the forums, they might be able to help you

click support from the services menu, then submit a request (top right of the support page), then fill out the form.

trickster light is the top and pants (gemstore armor)
masquerade is the gloves (tp or crafting)
deathly mantle is the shoulder (tp)

I have no idea what skin the boots are though, but I hope this helps somewhat

forum search doesn’t work, hasn’t for a long time

same thing was reported about 2 week ago, a dev responded saying they are working on it, but no eta:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Jump-Puzzle-Bugging-Out

are they in an invisible bag? things in invisible bags don’t deposit using deposit collectables option (apart from individually)

to be honest, I very rarely waypoint. if its for a dungeon I do because I don’t like to keep others waiting, but any other time I travel from place to place on foot. the world is a great place to walk through and I still manage to find places I’ve never seen (caves, ways up waterfalls, etc).

you can go and talk to Marjory Delaqua, she will allow you to play through the instance again she is marked on the map with a star, so she’s not too difficult to find

can’t say I’ve ever touched the “free camera” option. I remapped A and D to strafe left and right as soon as I got the game, and have only ever used the mouse to turn my camera.

scroll of knowledge doesn’t give levels, it only gives skill points, so this isn’t a bug.
