Ashantara.8731

No change of skins, especially nothing randomized! Just add an option to choose from several, if you must, for variety. Don't forget that there are tons of new players who otherwise wouldn't have access to the skins you find "boring". ;)

Asking someone who is trying to help to post exploits publicly so that more people can see (and use) them. :sweat_smile: As people on Twitter already voiced:  Aurene, Caithe and SpongeBob advise strongly against it :p :

When you say you "went into Program Files", does that mean you've installed the game in Windows' Program Files folder? That's never a good idea. Create a separate game folder, preferably on a non-Windows partition, and copy the game there. Delete the Local.dat and the GW2 temp folder on C: as well, then execute the Gw2-64.exe again and see if it works or if a repair works now.

Posted on November 25: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/119042/clarification-on-icebrood-saga-champions-chapter-1-faction-events Anyway, I agree that they never communicate in time and leave people in the unknown for too long. Communication needs to improve, but that's nothing new.

Do that. Most won't take long and it can never hurt to check the system for corrupt files/drivers and have Windows repair them, or to clean the system of junk etc. :)

> @"radda.8920" said: > Ls3 awful? Why? Because a lot of the dialogue was quite terrible (for most of the characters, friends and foes alike), because Taimi was annoying beyond words, and - _most importantly_ - because they made such a joke out of Balthazar. They portrayed him as a sulky kid who started to throw a tantrum when he didn't get his candy. It was so cringeworthy seeing him behave like that, not worthy of a God. And then the whole thing with Omadd's Machine - please, can you make a fantasy tale more absurd than that? (Having a God turn to a magi-tech construction to absorb a mortal being's magic?) Not to mention the huge disappointment with Lazarus and Livia, the latter being reduced to a mere shadow of her GW1 self, also with truly bad lines of dialogue, making her look like a b**ch rather than the smart, seductive, sassy character we knew from GW1. Furthermore, LWS3 included _the_ most embarrassing moment in GW2 history: the "Shining Blade initiation ritual" - I lost all respect for them right there. Yes, the maps were okay (some even great) and fun to explore, some of the mission fights and mechanics I liked too, but the story was not my cup of tea, sorry.

> @"wolfyrik.2017" said: > That doesn't seem to make sense either. Aurene had to eat the errant magic inside kralk, she didn't just cause it to no longer be there. She hasn't done the same to Jormag or Primordus. How did she take the power that we know Primordus, consumed? Did I miss something? To tell the truth, I have been asking myself the same question ever since I read that she had "restored balance" in one of the cutscenes or in some dialogue. That was after her ascension, I don't recall when exactly, sorry. I always assumed that, when she ascended, she somehow neutralized the foreign magic that she had gained access to through her grandfather when we stroke the final blow on him.

> @"Fueki.4753" said: > The Destroyers reverting back to being fire-only, rather than making use of the dead Elder Dragons' magic. Those are not the Destroyers from Ember Bay. Primordus can no longer create new Destroyers that also harbor the dead Elder Dragons' abilities, because Aurene restored the balance (so no more crossover abilities).

> @"Bamfbear.5028" said: > Okay so a little weird to explain but basically I've noticed when in came that at times when I press my Q, W, or E buttons to move around they don't always register and require hitting additional times. Though you don't have the issue when using a text program, it doesn't mean that there isn't a problem with your system. I used to have that happen to me on my old rig and never truly figured out what caused it (my guess is that there was already an issue with my old motherboard long before it fully died on me this summer). Things you can try before you start troubleshooting expensive hardware components: * delete [GW2's temp folders and the Local.dat](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/comment/1379904#Comment_1379904) * run [Windows repair scans](https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/comment/1380427#Comment_1380427) * clean your Registry with [CCleaner](https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/download) * rid your system of obsolete files and other junk with [Windows' disk cleanup](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/disk-cleanup-in-windows-10-8a96ff42-5751-39ad-23d6-434b4d5b9a68) * disassamble the keyboard and clean all contacts * a fresh Windows installation (last resort)

Still, not the best way to go about it. I'd rather have them release the mini content in separate episodes than in chapters, thereby locking characters to the current story.

> @"XYLO.7031" said: > I would have preferred an earlier Wintersday over the lackluster quality of this episode. I hope it's not a sign of the expansion to come. If anything, I believe it is a sign that the expansion will be of high(er) quality as they seem to be putting all effort into it instead of the finale of the IBS. > @"Linken.6345" said: > Wait is it really the shiver peak strike one the only good drop you can get from there? > > Please say it is not so Unfortunately, it is. Someone linked them for me, and they were the ones I had unlocked earlier this year.

So, am I getting this right? We won't be able to do any other episodes' achievements until the next chapter on any character with whom we have the current episode active, because we will lose all progress of this chapter and would have to start over?

> @"Randulf.7614" said: > The same vendor as the trident - the Ebonhawke one Okay, that's why I'm only seeing the trident then. Thanks. > The shoulders I've only seen linked, I haven't looked into how to get. I'm sure someone will chime in with that info You don't happen to know their name by chance? :) Edit: Never mind. Asked in-game, it's the Ebon Vanguard shoulder skins I already own, hence they aren't showing for me at the vendor, either.

> @"Randulf.7614" said: >To avoid confusion of double buying something already in game, they auto remove from the vendor if you own them Ah. Which verndor offers them at the EotN, though? :) > > @"Linken.6345" said: > > You got a shoulder skin aswell so dubble the skins from nov 17 content drop. > I did actually overlook that one. Something at least I guess! Okay, I must be blinded by all those new prismatic dyes :lol: - what is that shoulder skin Linken mentioned? The new cape?

> @"Randulf.7614" said: > I like how **the skins** are the karma ones from Ebonhawke. They didn't even add new rewards there except the 10 currency trident skin What skins? I've only seen the trident you mentioned.

That's not really the idea behind them, I believe, as you can use the Bank for that. In my honest opinion, Shared Inventory Slots make most sense for stuff like this, for example:

But sometimes a weird software issue is the cause. I suggest they try the common Windows fixes first before re-installing the whole system: * Open the Command Prompt: CMD --> Run as Administrator * type: **DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth** (wait for it to finish) * type: **SFC /scannow** (wait for it to finish) * Exit the Command Prompt once done, restart your PC.

Well, it's a way for ANet to make money since new players get the two of the three campaigns for free these days. I think it's worth it, but it depends on what you consider "worth it". The GW2 story has its ups and downs qualitywise, but it's true that you will experience knowledge gaps if you skip story content. Season 2 was pretty decent I'd say, but unlike Season 3 (which was awful storywise) and Season 4 it doesn't provide easy access to valuable equipment like ascended trinkets and the like.

Sometimes it rounds up, sometimes it rounds down. There seems to be no logic to it, because it does not seem to depend on the time (>30 mins or <30 mins). Please fix it or make it to always round up, thanks. :angry:
