Aveneo.2068

~~Noticed my Luminiferous achievement wasn't complete so I went and did all the light puzzles again. Could have sworn that I had done several of these in the past already.~~

~~Today I was at 10/11 and all I had left was "Lighting the Hidden Tower". Completed both light puzzles in that jumping puzzle and I saw a message pop up. Went to open the chests expecting my achievement to hit 11/11 but nope. Still at 10/11 as if I never completed the puzzle. Do I need to do this 3 times before it actually counts or something? All the other light puzzles counted the first time I did them.~~

~~Went back in a second time and did the light puzzles again but apparently you can only do it once and I still didn't get my main achievement done because for some reason it's not counting the one inside the jumping puzzle atm.~~

~~This really sucks as I'm currently starved for Mastery Points now that ArenaNet put them behind achievements. :s ~~

Don't mind me! I was doing the wrong puzzle!! There was another one south of Eagle's Shrine (the one with the strong winds) that had 3 stages (spiders and skelk). At first I only did the top two stages but then noticed there was poison and skelk down below. Completing that got me the Luminiferous achievement as well as the Hidden Tower 1/3. :p

FOUND IT! It's in that cabinet in the library but never showed up when doing the story instance. Going back into the sanctum afterwards outside of the story and it's there. Reason I never found it was because I was doing the story instance over and over for the "Mysteries of Raven Sanctum" achievement. :)

Can anyone tell me where the book is inside the Raven Sanctum? I'm looking all over the place but haven't been able to find it yet.

Hmmm, I see. Guess I'll have to scour LA and check in with vendors to see if I can find where I can do that as so far I only found the old vendor at the TP that converts it into tonics (the one that also has those boosters). Thanks!! :)

EDIT: Well, that was easy. It was the Asura merchant standing right next to the tonic one. :lol:

I already exchanged it a long time ago when they turned all 'town clothes' outfits into tonics so this endless tonic is all I have now and it won't allow me to add it to my other endless tonics. :(


Unless none of the old 'town clothes' tonics can be added or something as I never bothered with the other ones.

I also found a tonic that I can't seem to add to the tab. It's the **"Endless Dragon Emblem Clothing Tonic"**.

I was waiting at the MK2 Golem for 30mins, killed it and got the item for my saddle as well as the achievement popup, then got disconnected 20s later with 'network error' and now when logging back in the item is gone and I have to do it again. Waiting another 2+ hours for another attempt (which will likely result in another disconnect).

THANKS ANET! /s

Next time could you like do me a favor and not hide this stuff behind massive group events which are already prone to system issues?

• Jalis: This legend can now be used underwater.

Yet Glint still can't be used underwater. :(

Thanks for the heads-up. In addition to the Medical Aid bug you guys might also want to look into an event that's also a requirement for this collection.

The event is called "Rescue refugees forced into labor in the Zephyrite mine" at Glint’s Legacy in Crystal Oasis and is frequently bugged; often stopping at 0/6 or 5/6 with no way to continue until you are lucky to find a map with the event not bugging out. It seems the npc's have issues either spawning in properly causing the event to stall indefinitely or not registering when rescued.

EDIT: Finally found an unbugged event and started rescuing the refugees. Event completed but I received NO recording because the game decided to give me yet ANOTHER Medical Aid recording (up to 3 now!!!) somehow even though I DID NOT revive anyone at all (I even stopped reviving the lone downed refugee so another player could get credit)! THIS SUCKS as I now have to go buy even more recorders because the game keeps giving me these stupid medical recordings even when I'm not even reviving anyone. And now I have to find yet another 'Rescue Refugee' event that won't bug out on me just so I can finally get my inventory space back!!!

And all that for just another stupid ascended backpack while I still have tons of unused ascended backpacks in my bank already.

Seriously, please fix this issue as I tried to be polite but this is getting annoying now. Thank you.

While I appreciate it that ANet had decided to address the issue and has agreed to change in the future after their (imo) despicable lootbox gambling scheme failed, I sincerely hope they don't expect me to pay €25 for a single skin now.

400-600 gems for a skin would be a good price, but if you think you'll just charge 2000 gems (€25) per skin from now on my wallet still remains shut. I'd just spend that money on a full game someplace else.

I would have gladly paid 400-800 gems for individual skins, or even 1600-2000 gems for a pack of Fire-themed or Star-themed skins (like you did with the Spooky Mounts Pack) but I am not going to spend money on a RNG lottery with 30 skins when only 6 of them look interesting (referring to the fire and stardust/starbound versions).

So I'm sorry ANet but just lost out on the €30-€60 that I would have been more than willing to pay as I sure as hell am NOT going to pay **up to €120** on RNG lootboxes just to get the 6 skins I'd actually want.

Also, you **STILL** haven't made the Jackal skin I want most! **MistFire Wolf!**


I just got the patch and now my character can't get back into the map (EU). Just an infinite loading screen. :(

EDIT: Managed to get in now after loading the game again.

After the patch I seem to have the infinite loading screen again when trying to load my character into the new maps (just like the issue we had a while back).

Desolation EU

I'd still like to see the following:

* **Melandru's Regalia outfit**

* **Kormir's Regalia outfit**

That way we will finally (after 5 years) have a full set of 'Human God' outfits.

Is there an option to remove avatars completely? I mean this limited selection and lack of personalization doesn't really add anything in my opinion. If no such option exists maybe it's an idea to add one (like you did with the 'hide signatures')? Personally I find these 'avatars' pretty pointless and would rather have an option to have them not visible at all.

Same issue for me. I'm including a screenshot of the issue as well here:

Same problem for me. I just got a "Book of Awakening to Light" and some XP but no token for my collection
