Guild Wars 2

Moira Shalaar.5620:

you might try setting the graphics to best performance. That seems to help with several of the graphics related bugs. I know it is not the answer you are looking for but it might help until the someday that ANET manages to figure out what is going on. I don’t have much hope by now since the major graphics problems go back to late 2012 and early 2013.

An answer is an answer, thank you

I just hoped maybe Anet would finally pay attention to that side of their offer, since they’re still advertising Mac support for HoT.
So far it kind of feels like a deceitful offer made to draw more people into buying the game.

The game has been live for 3 years, the Mac client has been around since release yet it is still in “beta” and has no stability whatsoever.

Everytime i try to play on mac, the game crashes after a little bit.
I keep sending error reports, and after 3 years there has been NO IMPROVEMENT.

What’s up with that ? Is there anyone working on it or has it been trashed ? Why do you advertise a feature and then dont support/finish it ?

If you’re going to sell the game to Mac users, make it work.

+1, i agree it should be expanded to 4 slots.

Hopefully Anet see and aknowledge this, can’t think of everything on their own ^^

Yea I hear u man…. I got twilight myself and was kind of disapointed to with no legendary badge… does all other legendary weapond do the same thing or just sunrise and twilight?

Just these two.
I’m not sure why… I would think it’s because combining the two will give you a third legendary : Eternity, for which the achievement isnt broken.

If that’s the reason, it’s not fair.

I think it’s bugged. Either way, it’s just another reason why I’m not getting either of those as my first legendary. Everyone and their mom has one and the badge is bugged. No point IMO.

Look at my reply as the answer of the thread
It works now !

Ok guys, breaking news ! It’s working !! I got the achievement just now logging in ! I swear it wasnt there after the patch… Maybe our prayers were listened to !

Thanks ArenaNet

Mkalafut.1273:

Would it be so bad to allow more players to see these weapon skins rather than wasting 100s of dollars or more on keys and never seeing one?

Would it be bad? No. Would it be less profitable? That’s the question that matter.

Can we stop with the communist attitude in a F2P game already ? Ofc Anet wants profit, geniuses. You get to play the game everyday 24/7 if you want to for free, and you can take a break and not have your CC charged every month.
It’s purely cosmetic, you dont NEED it to play the game.

I take my statement back if you prove you get up and go to work every morning to be paid in candies -if at all- and actually make a living out of it.
Gosh… Kids nowadays want everything for nothing.

I will agree with 1 thing : the random chance to get them is not cool. But you still dont need it to play.

3 months ago, I made a post here : https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Sunrise-and-Twilight-achievement

Still nothing. What’s up with that ? Is it really soooo difficult to fix this or nobody wants to ?

Sunrise and Twilight ARE legendaries, because their description says so (for starters) and it has the same generic recipe as any other legendary.

So now, please fix this… I dont pretent to know how the coding of the game works, but that looks like a 1 line modification.

Thanks in advance

Okay I read the patch notes and the following is disturbing :

“Disconnecting from the game removes you from your roster before a match has started.”

But the most disturbing is this :
“Disconnecting gives kill credit to opponents.”

Why always punish people ? I thought this was a game…
What if people dont have a very good internet connection and they dc every now and then, huh ? Not everyone is malicious, and we certainly do not need to be punished like in primary school.

I know some force d/c to avoid being killed or whatever, but how about Anet disables the disconnect button while in combat ? Or if it’s still an issue, keep an account connected for like 15sec after the d/c if the malicious person killed the GW2 process.

Call me crazy all you want, I know they’re on to us… They’re planning their attack !
I saw them with my own eyes ! They sent 3 scouts to LA !

Repent yourselves ! All those moas i killed for daily….

THE MOA INVASION IS NEAR !!

Hello !
So any news on this matter ?? It’s been a month now and still no reply from anyone in the staff (although I understand you guys have many things on your plate already).

Please fix it, it’s making a hole in my character selection screen :P

what was in that “secret room” ? o.o
Strippers ? If so, i want this room back, and the adress.

Mad Rasputin.7809:

You will get 15 for levels 2 and 4. Another 20 for level 6.

You will only get the daily chest bonus 20 fractals for tier 1 (2-8) once.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fractal_Relic

Oooh so the section “Boss Fractal” of this wiki page is about Jade Maw… That’s what got me confused, I thought you get 15 from the boss of each fractal

Thanks mate !

I’m confused, so I’ll set an exemple and you pros out there tell me if it works :

Say I just did Jade Maw at level 8, I got my 20 relics.
Now right after, I want to do it to level 2, 4 and 6. Will I get 15 relics for each of those too ?

The hearts mails get auto-deleted, I know it because I never deleted one and it’s obvious they werent all there since i had like 4-5 still in the inbox (out of the 200+ in the world)

Hmmm that’s nice, but why XP and not karma ?

100% map completion less than a month ago…
#FML

I hope they make it retroactive, cuz that wouldnt be fair to all of the people who did map completion and have to farm Orr endlessly to get the Obsidian Shards.

And I do recall the hearts gave karma during the betas… Dunno why they took it out.

If I may :

- No siege in WvW puzzles : then please disable PvP in WvW puzzles. People from Sorrow Furnace for exemple, have nothing better to do than camping borderland puzzles. If we cant use siege to defend our puzzle, then disable the PvP feature in there completely.

/signs

Someone bring this to the devs attention please, it has lasted too long already.

Hum… I like how everyone gives input and stuff, it makes the thread interesting.

Also, the Globs case can be explained by any or all the above mentioned theories, so unless you’re Warren Buffet himself keep your comments respectful and humble to one another, it doesn’t cost much and it wont make you look bad (and kindda ridiculous…).

This thread is a discussion, not a lecture by so-called experts. Brighten up people !

I fail to get the purpose of this thread… I sense some QQrage from the OP because he didnt get his precursor, so no one should get them or no one should make profit because they got one.

And please stop using this “manipulation” word every 10 minutes, there are about 50 threads talking about “market manipulation” in this subforum, seems it’s the new word to use if you want to sound smart.

Here’s how it works : something is rare, so it’s expansive. Period.
Yes, there is and always has been speculation. Problem ?

Now you dont have to buy your precursor, you can get it from bosses, chests or (mostly) using the Mystic Forge.

The post with the most sense i read here was :

Sunreva.8714:

Simpler solution would be to simply make it so that items that are valued over X amount (arbitrary number, say 250 gold) cannot be relisted for X amount of time (another arbitrary number, say 2 weeks).

If you buy an item for 225 gold, you can relist it immediately if you want to flip it.

If you buy an item for 250+, you can’t relist it for 2 weeks.

This time frame significantly increases the risk that the manipulator would be taking, in that risking a large amount of gold on 1 item (or 10, or whatever) in hopes of flipping it means that their money is essentially “frozen” for a period of time.

Increase these numbers as the price gets higher:

200 gold item, 2 weeks.
300 gold item, 3 weeks.
400 gold item, 4 weeks.
500 gold item, 5 weeks.

Have fun risking 3500 gold on a couple Dawns (@500g each) that you bought today which you can’t relist until March 4th.

The risk in this time is extraordinary, a LOT can happen in this time frame.

Now off to the Mystic Forge !
/evil market manipulator smile

Lane.3410:

I’ll give another. I have 5 level 80s and not a single ecto to my name. I didn’t have much success salvaging ectos from rare gear (even with the BLTC salvaging kits) so I quit doing it. I only salvage rares that are soulbound now. I’d rather take the guaranteed 25-40s I get for selling a BoE rare than risk getting a couple pieces of T5 materials that don’t even amount to 1s.

I don’t know how many people there are like me out there, but we’re certainly not contributing to the ecto market either.

And I thought i was unlucky :P

My friend, I think you didnt salvage the right items… For more on how to get ectos, check this : http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Glob_of_Ectoplasm
On average I got about 1 ecto for 3 items, and i’m far from lucky.

loseridoit.2756:

There was a mass ban of Snowflake salvages. Anet handle it pretty poorly and made the market worse by banning people who would normally stablize the ecto prices before the fiasco. This market is an example of what happens when the government over reacts to every problem in the market

Yeah, totally forgot about this incident… And I agree it was handled poorly.

So we all noticed the significant augmentation of the prices for the Ectos…
But the price isnt really what doesnt make sense, since it actually just follows the most basic law of the market.

What makes me have a “wtf” moment is the following fact : each day that goes by, we have more and more level 80 characters, that means they all have access to level 69-80 rare gear (=gear that can be salvages for ectos). Each day, there should be MORE ectos in the BLTP…. Yet there are less and less.

Look at the image below, the red vertical bar is the demand of ectos (always stable) and the blue vertical bar is the volume on ectos put on sale.

Just have to share this for ET : YES we can.

Hello !

I was wondering, since it’s not said anywhere in the TP, what is the fee for gem transactions (buy or sell) ?

Thanks in advance for the answers !

1 week bump !

Any news on that, dear Moderator (very creative name btw :P )

It would be nice to have a section per server here on the forums, it would help each server tremendously since gathering people from a server on a third-party website is complicated (and even more when it becomes a “my guild does it better” kind of competition and you end up with 20 dif forums for 1 server).

People could discuss anything related to their server and organise stuff for themselves.

How about you fix the fact that if you d/c during a run, you’re not booted out of the dungeon ?

I just spent 2h to get 5 fractal relics, thanks a lot ! How ?
I fell into some kind of lava pit = no one can rez
Completed 1 fractal.
D/c at the end of the last fractal = booted out.

Flett.1296:

A 1000 hours. You win the game, it’s over. They did’nt design the game for people to basically live in it. Get a job or two, try seeing real life daylight. Maybe a girl friend. But really if you have played the game for more then 41+ days logged in game. Really you beat the game lol.

Thanks for this awesome response xD

As for the OP, yeah some lazy kitten will buy their stuff for legendary…. But that’s not playing, is it ?
The respect a Legendary inspires is the countless hours spent to explore the map, completing the WvW jumping puzzles and killing invaders, the many runs of Fractals (aka different run everytime), the grind in CoE to get those kitten Lodestones (can you tell i’m on that part ?), the karma farming in Orr in hope to get exotics so you can salvage them and get ectos, the friends you make on the way unlocking temples with 3-5 people instead of a whole zerg because your server is small, etc…

What do I get out of the Legendary i’m going for ? A wonderful motivation to complete the map (i actually enjoyed it) and I met like 10000 people doing all what I went through. All in all, it’s the experience of getting the legendary, not the item itself.
I dont expect respect from strangers while wielding my legendary, because the only people I really care about are my guildies, and they know I worked hard and legit to get it.

If you dont have a gf or anything, then you have ALL the time in the world to PLAY the game and get everything by yourself. Why do you care if someone bought their legendary ? You got yours the legit way, that’s all that counts.
They’re only pixels anyway, but the people you meet and the enjoyment you have out of playing the game is real.

Brighten up people !

Bump ! We are still recruiting in Eredon Terrace !

Update : we have moved to a 100% representation policy to ensure that our guild can provide an endless loop of in-game bonuses to our members (thanks to the influence gained).
Some exceptions are allowed on a case-by-case basis provided you talk to an officer about it (they don’t bite, I promise).

Christos de Soufre.3802:

When Ascended weapons are released, legendaries will be scaled up to match the stats of those so that they aren’t “out-dated.” They’ve stated that they are intended to stay on par with the highest available tier of weaponry.

^ this answers the thread.

Pistol Joe.3741:

i have a sunrise still no Achievement.
On the Gw2 Wiki it say they don’t count towards the achievement .

I would love an official response to that… I don’t understand why Sunrise and Twilight wouldn’t count as legendary, when their description clearly say they are. Plus, they need the same amount of work as any other legendary…

+1 with Danikat
Just because you can go fast doesn’t mean you should.

On the other hand, Anet is working hard to make it not a grindy game… But in the end, the grind is here. As an exemple, the Gift of Battle : made of 500 Badges of Honor, which you get from doing the Jumping Puzzles, and not from actually killing people (i got like 1 Badge every 10 kills or something)

No matter how you look at it and no matter how hard Anet works, a MMO has to involve grind at some point.

A while ago I read that Sunrise and Twilight weren’t considered as legendaries and thus we couldn’t get the “account badge” or whatever you call the thing on the character selection screen.
I also remember reading that it was a bug and it was being worked on…

Is it really a bug ? And is it fixed yet ?

A made a couple of threads suggesting this, but I think repetition wouldnt hurt that subject, since it’s very bothering and unfair.

ANet could just leave the gate of the dungeon open until they fix the events for sure.

kreese.9461:

they shouldn’t be bound at all – you can be killed while holding one and the enemy can get the siege so why can’t you give it to your commander??

Well that might be a bug… But i agree that they shouldnt be bound at all.

I’m just asking for the minimum : account-bound.

Everything is in the title.

It’s pretty dumb that siege weapons are soulbound…

I dont really understand why they’re bound to anything anyway, but account-bound would really be awesome, since you can do WvW on various characters and usually only your main has lots of money. Or if you do the puzzles, you end up with a bunch of siege weapons you will probably never use because you don’t like WvW on that character.

So please ArenaNet, make the siege weapons at least account-bound !

That would be cool !
In the previous game I played, each crafted gear (weapon, ornament or armor) wear the name of the crafter in this way :

Manufactured by xxxxxxx

Where xxxx is the name of the crafter.

Agreed ! I’d love to be able to sit on chairs ! Plus I think it’s a pretty simple thing to implement for the people at ANet… Pros !

Agreed ! I’d love to be able to sit on chairs ! Plus I think it’s a pretty simple thing to implement for the people at ANet… Pros !

The event to open the CoE gate isn’t triggering and therefore I can’t complete this zone and can’t get my 100% world completion….

Seriously, if you can’t get these events to work properly, take them out until you’re 100% sure they’ll work and leave the kitten gates open !
I’m an unconditional supporter of ArenaNet, but this is seriously making me mad to not be able to play in a dungeon/map when I want without things being broken !

Same thing for Arah…

Everything is in the title…

If i get a precursor, soulbind it (yeah, i’m not gonna let it rest in my bank….) and craft the legendary, will it be soulbound automatically ? Or will it reset ?

Yeah I just found that too… It’s a sucky change or a loosy bug.
Would like to get this ability to preview all the armors back please, it’s one of the clever things I found when I first started to play.

Nevermind, I just found another opened thread about this here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/crafting/Sunrise-Twilight-and-Account-Medals

I was checking the recipe for one of legendary greatswords when this wild note appeared :

Wiki

For some reason both Twilight and Sunrise do not qualify for this medal even though they are listed to be “Legendary”, instead Eternity does.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Account_Medals

Is this still the case or was it a bug ?

Avan.1540:

Anet is planning on expanding the events there… sometime. When? No idea. :P

When it’s ready xD

I personally have only been there for the release and I dont feel the desire to go back there… Plus with the drop nerf thing there is really no point going there if it’s not for the world completion

ASB.4295:

As always, if there isn’t anything positive to say, or you can’t put a spin on concerning news, PR’s best bet is to stay quiet.

True enough, but at least I liked the stats and graphs so if there is no analysis he could just give us those :P
I found them very interesting to look at.

Bump

I also forgot to mention that we’re and will remain drama free !

The more, the merrier

Where is the John Smith in charge of watching over the GW2 economy ? Ya know, the one who wrote that : https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/john-smith-on-the-guild-wars-2-virtual-economy/

It was cool and interesting ! And I bet there is a lot to say at the moment…

(hopefully i wont get moderated for “calling out” a staff member this time… -.-’ )
