Guild Wars 2

Anyone know where the Aquatic Murk is for the twilight collection in the fractal?

No res rushing will make some of these dungeon events especially timing events not challenging but tedious. Offhand I immediately think of Citadel of the Flame. Not sure the path, but having to keep the gnome safe while he blows the walls. It is kitten near impossible to stay alive in there without a coordinated res rush

I was at 11 for the monthly, went to Harathi to begin Fawcett’s Bounty and it jumped to 13 for the monthly.

That is because there are two puzzle achievements to be had at that place. Fawcett’s Bounty and Fawcett’s Revenge.

thanks for that info. it didnt pull up as such in the wiki info, of course it being wiki is reason enough it didnt

I was at 11 for the monthly, went to Harathi to begin Fawcett’s Bounty and it jumped to 13 for the monthly.

I just completed Collapsed Observatory in Kessex Hills but I received no increased in the Monthly, but I did get the achievement for completing the puzzle, Grendich Gamble in Diessa Plateau gave no credit for completion toward the monthly as well, however it gave me the achievement. I am going to try all the ones in Kryta and actually complete them right now

maybe its me, but I have done 11 of the JPs and I have not attained any of the increases for the monthly unless I have actually completed the JP.

More than one occasion put in Four Exotic/Rare Great swords and received Masterwork. This can not be helpful for the drop rate of receiving dusk or dawn from the forge

I do not believe this is a bug! Eternity isn’t supposed to have footsteps and it has been known that the effect is to display Twilight during the night and Sunrise during the day. This will probably be moved since it isn’t a bug.

Given that Guardian’s are wearing heavy armor much like the Warrior class but having significantly reduced health make little sense. Armor values really seem to have little effect on the game. I could be wrong, but I find myself leaning more towards glass canon builds as I feel it is best to get my hits in and hope I can survive via casting boons and meditations for heals than feeling like I can survive because I am wearing heavy armor, which is also why assumed we moved so slow.

I do think that an achievement of the magnitude tied to legendaries being bought is dreadfully ridiculous. If the intent was for players to buy achievements in the game, whats the point, its not really an achievement at that point. You didnt EARN anything. How is this the philosophy of the development team?

they have said this was an error and will fix the issue with twilight and sunrise

Well 3/4 of the legendary making is money,so if legendary were not money based,no1 would need to farm endless amount of cash

YOu cant put stipulations on the legendaries which require inordinate amounts of mats and then strip away farming which means gold needs. So you either buy gems to convert to gold or farm for gold. The quest for legendaries should have been tied to story play content. Script an elaborate story that runs the length of one time events and dungeons, WvW and have committed players do those events, instead quest for legendaries are tied to farming activities which is equivalent to grinding.

Arah Story Mode is massively unrewarding especially for its length. When I completed the story for the number of champions and veterans I only received 1 yellow! Everything else was crap that was better off gambling with a salvage than selling. Anything below green is hardly worth it. The end reward really was not that appealing either. Oh and I did this with a full compliment Magic Find Gear. Still not sure how that works as it seems the drop rate only improves, but i still get crappy whites.

The rates need to improved on that forge, Right now it is a joke. The chance of getting anything out of there worth putting the items you have are ridiculous. I tried to go for the precursor. Stopped that after talking to some friends who reported after 77 tries they didn’t get the precursor. Watch some youtube videos and you will quickly see that it is a rip off

tried and I doubt it counts as an exploit. I agree with Beastageddon

Did you also have breaks then?

I didnt have a break, but I thought it was too expensive to warrant being called an exploit. You were guaranteed to get the snowflake back, but not necessarily the number of ectos which meant on some occassion having to use ectos along with the cost of Orichalcum

What are the numbers for getting Elaborates from the Mystic Forge recipe?

dognosh.6327:

also you check your achievement section ? the 5 areas ? maguuma, ascalon etc. ? you need those too.

If you have 100% on all maps in PvE and 100% on all 4 maps in WvW and all 5 area achievement completion then I am not sure what it is storyline maybe ?

You do not need those areas.

yeah this was discussed in another thread. Nothing broken about this given the cost to actually make this item. if you have tons of Orichalchum and just need the Globs then its almost a one fer, but otherwise its costing you to try this. its too expensive.

tried and I doubt it counts as an exploit. I agree with Beastageddon

this existed under water quite a bit after the last patch especially. Now i have noticed it on land a great deal. It has affected my farming.

You forgot to accept a chest somewhere in one of the zones for completing the area. Trust me, I felt like an kitten when I posted this same problem and Support helped me out and investigated and told me the game was working as intended, walk into Rata Sum to find I did not accept the chest there and my 2 gifts were waiting for me with that chest. They even gave me tips on how to port around the world for free or at minimal cost quickly

Imagine how I feel with a level 13 character and running into level 31 Skritt, Verani and those annoying Toy Dolls with the longest detect range I have seen of any NPC in the game one shot killing me.

I cant follow what the heck Arlant is trying to say. Tempestaslram you may have forgotten to ACCEPT a chest in one of the zones for completing that zone. It was the mistake I made. Take a port to the Chantry of Secrets POI first and enter there to see if you receive the reward there. If you do not you will need to find the zone you did not accept the reward chest in and you will receive the 2 Gifts of Exploration along with the chest in that zone.

Weird there has not been a response to this. The issue is still in game

I thought they were account bound. Why bind everything else in the process to making it and not account bound the legendary, no longer holds that ‘special’ status if it can be bought does it?

I posted a forum too. It happened to me again as well

Tried it again. Level 31 Verani spawned from the wintersday boxes in a level 1-15 area

I already submitted a report bug in game.

Plains Of Ashford Level 1-15
Character Seeth the Scaleless lvl 10
Server Gates of Madness

Issue: Upon opening Winterday Boxes high level Vernani and Skritt are spawning. In the Screenshots I submitted Lvl 31 Skritt and Verani spawned causing insta-death One hit Kills. I am not sure this is working as intended. I cant figure why level 31 enemies would spawn in low-level areas from these boxes?

Thanks Avorniel

I am Spec’d out completely in Berserker Gear. Done to kill in WvW while gathering Badges for Legendary. Need to go on the PVE side and looking for a build that helps with Dungeons, Farming, and Events.

Right now stats are 10/30/30/0/0 Sword and Shield, Scepter and Focus and GS for the Farming.

The build is great for Crits and High DPS, but lacks in surviving when amassed by mobs which the build seems to aggro a lot of especially in dungeons. All the rolling in and out of combat because of constant decreased health and need to self-heal is annoying play for me.

Any help on a more stable build, which focuses on Self-Heals, Tanking, use of GS/Hammer/Sword/Scepter would be helpful. I am big on GS as I am farming to make Twilight so I would like the main focus to be there.

My immediate thought is to stay 30 in Valor and move 20 to Honor. The quick heals from meditations is nice, and the 2H recharge from Honor would be great. I am also using MF gear while farming. Thanks for the help in advance.

I was interested in your build manticore, but it was a fail on the link, Spec’d out for PVE to acquire Badges and now I am looking for a PVE build to farm and tank.

Yeah I have areas that are unexplored, but they pop up as I have visited some of the hidden JPs around the world.

Those 2 new POI’s were not included in the achievement as I am sure they didnt increase my POI count.

yeah i have noticed the underwater monsters will hit hit, go invulnerable then hit hit again and again.

Support hunted down the error for me and sent me in the right direction. There was an unclaimed achievement chest in one of the zones. Once I returned to that zone the star granting me the 2 Gifts of Exploration were there, no need to return to Chantry.

Try visiting the areas you have completely explored and see if you forgot to accept any of the achievement chest.

Yeah I have recipes for other crafts on character who have not opened that specific craft

I am assuming the Chantry visit did not work for you guys either? I submitted in game bug report, support account report and posted here on the forums.

None of the moderators have commented on this issue. The repose so far from support indicates they have no means of awarding my account appropriately for completing the map. Without the 2 Gifts of Exploration there is no means for me to pursue the legendary weapons. I am not going to run another character through the process with the possibility the game will produce the same bug and there is no means of attaining these items if it reoccurs. I will keep everyone up to date on the response from support. At this time it does not look like the matter will be resolved appropriately. Appropriately being awarding my account the 2 Gifts of Exploration I have earned.

Yeah, I am unsure how these things are bugged this bad. This is endgame content. Worst is the response from moderators and support alike on the issue, there has been none!

I have the same problem as cranage. I’ve gone back into the Chantry repeatedly and still no gifts. I have sent a fair amount of silver porting around the world to various areas to see if the chest would pop, but no luck.

Apocalypse, why id yours stuck at 99%?

Baby, my last POI was in the Chantry of Secrets. I went in got the POI and a chest popped up. Clicked on it and it gave me the title but no gifts, Left went back in, ported around to a couple of areas, ported back to chantry and still nothing. Relogged and logged, still nothing.

I will not run around the map again to complete it with another character.

Anyone know of fixes to this other than re-entering the Chantry. I have tried this a number of times already!

Has anyone gotten this resolved? I went repeatedly and received nothing. I submitted a bug report.

Character: Aizen Tenma
Server: Gates of Madness

I received the title Been there, done that

Went to the Chantry last, and a chest appeared in the lower right, clicked on that chest and it gave me nothing! No Exotics and No Gifts of Exploration. Re-entered the Chantry, ported to some other areas and still NO Gifts. This is a horrible BUG!

Yep, bugged on Anvil Rock too. How is this going on for 3 months and no one from modeator to developer commenting on the thread. Has anyone submitted a bug report?

Check out the Straits of Devastation too! All of the Risen are spamming the cripple repeatedly. Every shot cripples.

So what’s changed then? :|

This wasn’t occurring at the rate it was before. Yeah they would cripple, but every shot? I do not grind the area that much so if it is correct then forgive me my ignorance.

I have started noticing the schedule patch releases are just happening whenever with little to no planning. Apparently, get it all in and see what fails and what works. This patch needs to be rolled back.

Its funny the only time I am successful is while I am under swiftness

I guess you are jumping early and not jumping from the edge of the object. It’s an issue with edges, because with normal jumping there is no problem, but any edge and the jump just doesn’t happen.

yeah thats exactly what it is. At the edge it hesitates and almost hits a cieling or simply doesnt jump at all. with swiftness on, it allows me to jump earlier, but if i run to the ledge even under the boon the jump will not work.

Its funny the only time I am successful is while I am under swiftness
