Fractals seems to be the only end game content wich gets constant updates and is played more most ppl only do icebrood construct,fraenir and kodan strikes as boneskinner and whispers is not friendly towards the casual player. I rather see anet look where most players actually play and spend more on that more as its most logical > > > > Constant update to fractals what game have you been playing? > > Took them 3 years to release the last additional to fractal a month ago. > > They’re not releasing new fractals at a fast pace but it’s not 3 years either. > > https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Fractals_of_the_Mists > > >With the release of Living World Season 4, Episode 3: Long Live the Lich (June 26, 2018) the new Deepstone fractal was introduced. > >With the release of Living World Season 4, Episode 5: All or Nothing (January 8, 2019) the new Siren's Reef fractal was introduced. > >On September 15, 2020, the new Sunqua Peak fractal was introduced. Right I think I mixed up my facts with how long it was bettwen the CM fractals, My bad.

Not for free mind you, but still.. Just buy another backpack from any living world s3,4 or icebrood that got it at the merchant. You might want to go back power someday and can have that in your second equipment slot on same character

Aint it default b?

Did you maybe change the language?

> @"Aeon.4583" said: > Shattered Observatory should be and must be end-fractal in every tier, because it is final conclusion of why fractals even happens and why Dessa tries to fix so called Instabilities. > Sunqua Peak's end boss reminds me more of Twilight Oasis, with all this AOE mess all around ( i can only imagine what it will be to play TO on level 100 ). But problem is Twilight Oasis is in lower tier, and Sunqua Peak should be aswell in lower tier rather than level 100. > I honestly think it was designed to be in lower tier, and it was just a last moment decision to put it in level 100. Since it have a Cm it was designed to be in higher level it could have been 98 tho, since anet is inconsistent there is no reason for them not to break what they done before and not make it max tier. They did it twice before with nightmare and shattered.

You don't have the AoE loot option unless you have leveled the respective core Tyrian Mastery anyway ("Advanced Logistics" within "Central Tyria" -> "Pact Commander"), so I don't understand what you are trying to say. Strange seems like the OP turned it off and it dident help. >I tried with and without auto loot, also uninstalled and installed the client but the issue remains. >Any suggestions, did anyone else had this problem?

> @"Sobx.1758" said: > I don't see how blending multiple categories into one is supposed to make anything easier. When you want a group to complete x content, you look for it in x tab, not in a combined x,y,z tab and hope one of 30 squads fits your needs. I don't get what your problem is with current format, the fact that they're so "segmented" and mostly in chronological order makes it easier to find a group you need. Well if you want to look for dungeon groups why cant it be a big list like the raid one. So you can see all dungeons at once its not like raid is segmented into wing 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and you have to open up each one to look for groups.

> @"medivh.4725" said: > Doing the boss fights in story makes me want to quit the game several times. Every time its a kitten off. We are not really fighting the boss just fighting the mechanics. And repeating mechanics. It is a painful grind. Do something about it before losing more gamers. Lower the difficulty or remove layers of mechanics pls! The mechanics is the bosses skills tho so how are you not fighting the boss?

Im talking about being a giant monster all the time and that being the playstyle; Like I said he should play wow because thats whatever one else says when anyone askes for anything. "Go play this, go play that" rather than allowing people to ask A-net for anything. Like me he isn't welcome here, nor is anyone who wants anything different than what is and what has been because guild wars 2 will never be more than that. > > Accept that and move on. Yes and when your the 10 ton gorilla in the game, is it then time to demand that armor parts is made for that shape shift and then the next shapeshift because someone else wanna play a kitsune or a centaur. Were do the cosmetic demands end? Honestly anet should just release a combat tonic similar to the kodan one and you can play what you want with that one outfit per tonic

The assumption is that anything that could be considered outlier behavior (Extremely chatty guilds, to extremely dead guilds.../extremely chatty players in hidden channels, to extremely silent players in hidden channels) are treated as outliers, and thus the frequency of guild chats, whispers or other 3rd party communication services lay somewhere in between, which we would expect to be distributed as a bell curve with some average frequency. > > The reasoning behind just observing interactions we can see, and using that as data we could use, is that it should be representative of interactions as whole by a similar proportionality, which is again based on how we aren't treating interactions we can't measure as outliers, but instead as an average. This is the same tactic that's used in statistics, where for example, [we can measure measuring Gw2's total population by looking at the amount of gw2reddit subscribers]( ), (based on the 80/20 rule). In other words, the people that use reddit or forums will be some proportion of the population. We are using this tactic but in reverse, taking the total population and using measurable interactions to determine proportionality of hidden interactions. > > So in a general sense, the amount of interactions you can measure in chats you can actually observe, is assumed to be some proportion of all chats that you can't observe. So if there are 100 people in Lions Arch, and you have 10 Interactions per hour, than it implies that may also have on average 10 interactions per hour that you can't observe. > > Again, because you can't reliably measure these hidden interactions, you can't make a case for it because it could be anything, ranging from 0 to 100 to a thousand. It's unfalsifiable. > > Wouldent the 80/20 rule mean that 10 is the 20 you can observe, it would then be 40 the 80 you cant? Why is it 10 and 10 in this post?

> @"Light Yagami.7318" said: > So I was all for the steam launch when I heard about it at first; however, after reading that you can't transfer your existing account to steam I see no point except for new players. I am still for them doing this because, more people can experience this game. I just wish there was a way for veterans or people who have been playing and spent money in the game to be able to also have it in steam so they could have most of their games in one location and I was looking forward to it.... This kinda sucks for anyone who has been playing a while and has legendaries etc that take time to get and would have to do again if they wanted to have it in steam. Even if it would be harder to make it to be able to transfer the accounts I feel they should postpone the update till they can figure it out or at least tell us it will come in the future as an option for steam. TL;DR: good for new players, bad for veterans, please add account transfers at some point please! Why would they want to lose the % cut to steam on old players aswell as new tho?

Because its there in that game and "GuIlD WaRs Is UnIqUe REEEEEE!" We got it here aswell necromancers shapeshift and norn racial elites. Edit I think there is a good reason why anet wouldent want animal shifting because it would kill fasion wars and those players wouldent buy the new shiney from the gem store.

At least that's how it seems to me. Because they are still helmet skins so if they would work so would all other helmets.
