I believe the OP realized from my first post. How was it removed OP dident edit their post at all. If a mod removed it the whole thread would have been deleted.

> @"Image.8630" said: > I particularly dislike the missions parts. Some of the mobs are crazy powerful mostly when you end up alone in the instance. My main problem though is that its badly done. You get a huge list of Achievements or items to get (like the numbered crystals) and when you try to do/get them you can't cause they are not active and it doesn't say that anywhere. Last chapter it says to do Exalted Missions... there aren't any and NO mention they don't exist (Many friends looked for them too). You didn't even start anything and you get frustrated by how bad it's done. NO info of all the stuff that don't exist but you are asked to get/do it. Even Wiki doesn't help. How hard could it be to either grey out anything not active or simply add a note: NOT AVAILABLE YET. And please PLEASE stop adding collections in story achievements. Check bonus events tab under h and you will find the exalted missions.

> @"Crystal Paladin.3871" said: > When I started this game as a newbie, everything in the game overwhelmed me... Every single drop from monsters seemed like they could be a potential rare drop. Including mystic coins... Mat storage limit was 250. I didn't know what to do with mystic coins and yet I was not willing to sell them on tp coz compared to other materials, the accumulation was slow low... after a long time, I got to know about legendaries so I started hoarding it even when it exceeded 250 , I bought mat storage expansion and continued collecting clovers and coins. But I'm not interested in gold at all and definitely not interested in buying or selling anything on tp. Then it took a while to craft my legendary kudzu. This I believe is the mentality of a new casual player... > > The point I'm trying to explain here is new players are not that much interested in gold and trading post. They don't sell mystic coins unless their mat storage fills up (even then, they might not sell). So don't expect the supply from new players to compensate the demand for mystic coins. > > If u want mystic coin prices to stabilize or get enough for your needs, only way is anet should introduce a new source for mystic coins (coz wvw, cm fractals(always gated with 4k ufe) are not too friendly for average players) Start new groups and learn the cm content?

Intel and nVidia domination won't last forever either. That said, look at AMD in recent days ... they have a fair chance, let us see what happens. I am giving them (Apple) the full 2 years for the transition. How do spend less and mac go together?

> @"Doghouse.1562" said: > I ran the Kournan supply caches yesterday (early evening), looking for shards for my skyscale collection. This morning (i.e. new game day) I ran about half of Tekkit's route, and found exactly ONE "supply cache". "Kournan chests" were OK. I confirmed, by logging in a second account and multiboxing to be sure I was looking at the identical map, that my second account could see supply caches where the first one saw nothing. I have to presume that the caches are either on individual timers or on something rather longer - they're certainly not resetting at end of day. Pretty sure they are on a 16-18h cd mate.

Maybe these issues were fixed because this comment you replied too.

What exactly does Steam do for existing accounts though? Are you intending to spend more money on the game once it is ported to Steam? Are you willing to spend more per gem to make up for the loss in revenue? Do you think this holds true for a majority of the existing player base? > > There´s a reason Steam takes 30% cut, you knwow. It´s incredibly popular and easy in the way of payment. > I can whip out my phone and I´ll have balance addded to my Steam account in 30 seconds. > I don´t spend any money on GW2 as it is. I WOULD if I could use my Steam wallet. > > So, ANET would rather get 0 dollars from me than letting me spend money through Steam, even with a 30% cut? > Ok, then. Just make a new account with steam and the gift yourself the items to your main account.

Yes but they were never needed before when we had waypoints everywere. If you noticed maps after mounts have few waypoints making them necesary.

> @"Will.9785" said: > I agree that something needs to be done. Its blatant market manipulation by 1 or 2 guilds with very rich players (i.e. hundreds of thousands of gold). > > This is harmful to the game in the long run. A new player would instantly be turned off by this if they wanted to go for a legendary. It puts what is already a daunting task for many players even further out of reach. Many may not find it worth the effort and leave the game. People need long term goals like this to stay invested in the game but they need to be reasonably within reach. The carrot on the stick approach only works if the person chasing the carrot actually believes they can get it. > > A price of 2-3 gold is not fine. You need around 500 for gen 2 legendaries. That's over 1k gold JUST for the coins. > > Even if you feel like 2-3 gold is fine, at what point does it start to become a problem? Because it can/will reach 3-5 gold before you know it given the manipulation we are seeing right now. Then do leyline anomaly daily the daily mystic forger when up, fractal cms and save your login coins untill you get your coins.

> @"Cyninja.2954" said: > If you have one or multiple of the weapons in your inventory, you gain a special action key while fighting a Dragon Response Mission end boss. Using the special action key will upgrade the weapon to its finished form, in fact all of them at once. > > The the 2 different types of DRM final bosses, Primordus or Jormag, are coresponding to the two types of new dragon slayer weapons. Use the correct mission for either weapon type. Nice to know you can upgrade more then one each time.

> @"wilykcat.5864" said: > I agree. It should get replaced with a in game barber shop for character customization changes such as hair, hair color, face, etc. Like how they have one in warcraft but make it only cost silver and copper. Transmog charges should go entirely. To use the player only have to pay 15 dollars a month. Pretty sure Anet would welcome that income. I dont mind as long as I dont have to pay if I dont use it.

> @"MithranArkanere.8957" said: > Snowden Drifts is not scaled properly. And the timer is pretty obviously set without considering the time it takes for NPCs to get their bearings. > > No matter how good you are, if the NPCs decide yo stand still and dilly dally, you pretty much have to reset. or you use a super speed scrapper/ quickness firebrand to speed the npc.

> @"Tony.8659" said: > The huge grind for the Crimson & Azure weapon collections is just beyond awful. Prismaticite Crystals take a long time to grind this is not content. The only thing I'm doing is to get all the recipes for both collections and thats it, for the achieve points. I can only imagine what other grind collections for the next 2 living world episodes, I don't even call them episodes more like here is more grind content because we have nothing worthwhile to actually give you. Sorry but pass on any more future god awful grind fest collections. Is Arenanet taking a page from Black Desert Online? To me it seems so with the grind. Dont forget that you have to use each unfinished weapon to be able to craft the crimson and azure weapons as well making you switch classes and go through drms another 32 times

> @"Tzarakiel.7490" said: > The reason why Anet is so tightlipped about future updates in this game is because so many people treat any information about future additions as unbreakable bloodoaths and will resort to rage and fury if not every random idea ever voiced by a developer has been properly implemented. Even if it was a bad idea or they couldn't make it work. Problem here is they never said it was a bad idea or that they could not make it work they just stay silent and keep head in sand hoping people forget about it.

Play spvp or wvw get tomes of knowlage to level alt.

Yea all the skins are same as you can craft or get in story right? https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Auric_weapons

> @"manu.7539" said: > I'm all in for a remake! The gw1 storyline was so much more diversified and interesting than these dragons after dragons after dragons... of gw2 storyline, so boring. Maps were much more challenging, you needed to build a strategy for whatever you had to do on a map. Open world is great but it reduce greatly the need of strategy. Maybe time for anet staff to use their imagination and to offer a second kind of pve, based on gw1. I dont need 50 pve maps, give me different style of pve instead so I can pick the one I like. Try raids they are like gw1 missions that needed strategy, if you want less of it start with strike missions.

> @"Eraden.8740" said: > Gee, I wish I had your problem. Admittedly I have a metric crapton of Bloodstone dust but I have very little Dragonite ore and Empyreal fragments. I have been working hard to craft a set of Zojja's gear and I have just about everything else I need in spades. Finally just got finished making my second piece. Now it's back to grinding for several days all over again to try and get enough to make 2 Dragonite ingots and 2 Empyreal stars for the next piece. That's even with being lucky enough to get in on the big events in those zones. I don't even know if they are tradeable. They don't show up at the trade shops. Then again, given how much trouble I have had getting the stuff, I can see why people don't put this stuff up for auction, even if it was possible. > > As a side note, I had a peek at the infusions for the first time on the auction house. PRICEY! Of more concern to me however, is the crazy coloring effects most of them have on your character. Effects that I really don't want. I like my character looking the way it is. It seems any infusion that comes with more than just agony resistance also comes with a hidiously garish effect. Can these things be crafted? I may need to look into making one that does not come with an icky effect attached to it. You cant trade bloodstone, empyryeal or dragonite sadly. + https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Dragonite_Ore + https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Empyreal_Fragment + https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User:1Maven/Empyreal_Farming Those links should give you some ideas on were to get the stuff you need. As for the infusions the ones you craft dont change your character at all. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mighty_9_Agony_Infusion Edit Bonus tip to reduce the influx of bloodstone dust is to open all exotic champion bag or any other for that matter on a lvl 31-53 character depending on what tier of materials your in most need of.

People need to know if your na or eu. Additionaly when doing pinata ask in map chat if anyone is willing to portal you. There are alot of mesmers or even raiders with 30min cd portal around.

I think your mixing this up with defense seals right? Cm gave alot of those but Prismaticite was only from daily yea if I remember right.

Sounds like they buged it out and got a easier fight because of it. No idea how but Anet would likely want to know so they can prevent it.
