New squad UI Bug

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

I set my party/squad UI appear bottom of screen. However the new UI is too big and extends beyond my screen, thus I cannot access all of the options in the UI including leave button….
To leave squad I have to use command line “/squadleave”

I think the launcher’s too old. It’s memory is going. Soon it will need to be sent to the old folks’ home.

What about my UI size resetting from large to normal though. I would think old folks like bigger UI?

Dragonvine Strap not unlocking in collection

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

When I completed Hearts and Minds story mission you get an item called Dragonvine (insert order here) Strap, which should be used to improve the Crusader’s Pack Collection you earned at “Prisioners of the dragon”

When I completed for my Vigil character Hearts and Minds the dragonvine strap was gone from my inventory. It was there in the rewards pop up. But not there in my inventory, nor did it unlock in the collection. It unlocked without any problems when I did the previous time for the Agent’s Pack collection. Has this happened to anyone else?
Just the story instance again with a 2nd char and the same bug has happened, no unlock on the collection item.

I found myself similar situation with Agent’s pack. I found this https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Talk:Scholar's_Pack_%28achievement%29 and did the story with the character which originally unlocked the collection. Then I was able to get items to progress the collection.

Something To Try #2
If that was tried and did not work, has anyone tried completely deleting the local.dat file where preferences are stored so a new one will be downloaded after loading the launcher? Perhaps this may help fix it.

  • C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Roaming\Guild Wars 2\Local.dat

Sorry I cannot help more right now, I am not having this problem…yet.

“#2” worked for me.

“#2” only worked for me when I stayed in character select screen and change options. Restarting client didn’t reset. However as soon as I hit “Play” button and actually play the game, next time I logged in, the optioned were reset again.

I just noticed today, my AP haven’t changed at least last 2 days. Today for sure, I checked my AP before and after daily. Even though I see “Daily Completionist” and +10 point in “Recently Completed” in Achievement panel, +10 points wasn’t added to my total. And yes I haven’t reached the daily AP limit of 15,000 yet.

Tempest BW1: Let's Vote!

in Elementalist

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

1. Tempest (Overall): 4
2. Traits: 4 (Not sure about Earth Proxy, but everything else looks good to me)
3. Warhorn: I am stuff ele
4. Overloads: 5 (My comments below.)
5. Healing Skill: 5
6. Utilities: 3 (Nice skills, but in PvE shouts won’t replace more DPS related skills, and likewise in PvP and WvW, shouts won’t replace Cantrip. As far as I can tell at this moment utility skills are situational use only.)
7. Elite Skill: 1 (My comments below.)
8. Animations & sound effects: 4 (Shouts are awesome!)

Overloads: I don’t have problem with how it works, and I think recharge is at right place. Originally I thought effects are not as strong as I hoped but carefully reading tooltips it’s actually pretty powerful. I don’t know why so many people complain. When Overlaod fire does more dmg than Firestorm, Overload Air does more dmg then Lightning storm with less recharge. Water not only heal but give 10s regen and remove condi every pulse. This is like AoE Ether Renewal.

“Rebound.”: This… Only can be used by organized group by that I mean people with voice communication tool. Otherwise I don’t see this skill to be used properly ever by general players. 25% recharge reduction seems lame. I rather want an elite skill that can reset recharge on all attunements (extended Fresh Air!) than this.

Tempest Skill Types?

They didn’t say they wouldn’t double up on any, just that they would all be existing types. Definitely shouts.

“Freeze!”
“You’re fired!”
“You’re full of hot air!”
“I’ll rock your world!”

And of course, the heal, “Water you doing, trying to kill me!?”

Eh, close enough. 1/5 isn’t bad… :P

boon duration ascended.

soistheman.7208

If you like boon ans healing power, you should make giver’s set which is toughness (main), healing, boon. This was special stats, so I am not sure if you can still get recipes for armor. (no ascended tier for giver) I think each piece gives 1% boon, so if you make 6 and put Platinum Doubloon for upgrade then you will get total of 30%

You need fast CPU for this game. So I suggest to buy components which are overclock-able.
That means:

  • Get K processes, so core i5 4690k or i7 4790k (depending on how much you want to spend. i7 will not help much performance boost for games however.)
  • Z97 motherboard
  • Decent CPU cooler ($50 and up)

Has Living Story failed?

in Living World

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

I have to say season 2 was disappointment to me. I really liked season 1 because it brought wide variety of contents such as open world events, mega bosses, dungeons, single/multiple player instances. But season 2, the main focus is story instance which is the same thing as personal story which doesn’t strike me as the shining feature of GW2. Despite of better story telling and better boss fights, it doesn’t excite me. The worst of all these story instances are like movies, once you have done it, that is all. The only reason why I repeat these instances is for AP, not because I enjoyed and wanted to play again.

That said, I liked coin collection and map wide jumping puzzle from Nov 2 release though.

Convince me to play WvW

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

I think you have very wrong idea of what WvW experience is.
1) PvP in WvW is more for small group/solo roamers taking camps, killing yaks, or other small objectives. If you don’t like PvP, then don’t do these tasks instead join a zerg which brings to your point 2.
2) WvW zerg is nothing like PvE zerg. If you fight mindlessly like PvE you will be dead in 5 sec. If a skilled commander leading WvW zerg goes to EotM and fight PvE zerg, WvW zerg will destroy PvE zerg event if PvE zerg have 3 times more numbers. SKilled commanders will tell you to use stability and run through enemy zerg and get their back line, then DPS on commander tag. They will scream for waterfields when zerg needs it. They will tell you exactly where to go. Go left, right, take stairs, jump off wall, stack for might. When to use mass invisibility. WvW commanders are busy people…
3) When it get serious people do defend camps. Doesn’t happen all the time.
4) Sooner or later you will be lvl 80 with full exotic or better!

It was broken AND the season was too long.

Wasn’t broken at all. Silver league was pretty awesome.

Silver league where the fun is! I don’t know which server you are, but I had a blast fighting in Silver league for YB. Hard fighting against IoJ, SBI, FA and HoD every week was tough, exhausting, but at the same time incredibly fun. WvW S2 and the first Wurm Kill with TTS are the highlights of GW2 for me.

What takes so long?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

I have to agree. I love GW2 and love the 2 week release of LS, even though sometimes that’s too much, but beside LS…? In terms of new content volume and speed of delivery, I give LS A+++++, but other areas I give D.

  • Skill balance update should be 4-6 week cycle to keep up changes.
  • There hasn’t been a new map for PvP for a long time now and we still don’t have other game types beside the experimental team death match. We had a big reward system change which is nice but this doesn’t exactly make PvP game play more fun.
  • There hasn’t been too much update in WvW. (Sadly as this point EotM cannot be considered as WvW) Yes we had small changes such as account bound WXP, etc but really the last major thing was culling fix.
  • Dungeons are abandoned content. It’s a great way to farm and make money, but if you are looking for fun, dungeons no longer provide that. Stacking is breaking the game and it is known for so many months, yet ANet have not fixed this issue. I don’t call stand still and spam skills as fun.
  • Big feature patch? We finally had 1 feature patch and it didn’t include everything it should have after waiting for 20 months. Let’s be honest LFG tool was released 1 year after the release of the game and LFG tool should have been there from the beginning. When it comes to adding new features, ANet is a turtle and things go way too slow.

My thoughts for improvments from season 2

in WvW

Posted by: soistheman.7208

soistheman.7208

  • Free server transfer dead line should have been 2 to 4 weeks before the season started, so that population shifts would have been reflected to server rating and servers competes in proper league.
  • Swiss style scoring was pretty bad. (People already said enough on this topic)
  • Rewards. I don’t think it is fair to give the same amount of rewards to anybody who completed meta achievement, especially this season because it was so much easier to complete it. People who spent 9 weeks playing WvW should receive more rewards than who spent 1-3 weeks just for meta. Maybe tickets should have been obtainable by taking keeps, towers, or killing other players. This way people who spend more time WvWing will get extra tickets at the end of the season.

I don’t think district system doesn’t work well in GW2 despite when I heard the suggestion for the first time I also agreed with the idea. The reason why I think this doesn’t work is really it opens up abuse of the system. You can flip district to district to gather permanent rich ore nodes without ever move or use WP. You can do the same for events and champions.
