hugo.4705 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 That item seems to be cool tbh ;D, but I think that the addition of that kind of item would have been more efficient if locked behind a little collection instead of giving him away for 400 gems on the trading post! :/ (but still cheap) ^^ Guess I will continue to use /wiki et not really an issue, more a thought. But btw, thanks for that very cool little thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlagueParade.7942 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 For 400gems... a steal! I think this'll be one of the highest selling items they've created so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

segman.3560 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 My excitement is immeasurable. Mostly because it's so low at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aswedishtiger.7320 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Legit everybody is buying this item. It's too cheap and too good to pass up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illconceived Was Na.9781 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 The key features are: * It reminds you in chat (toggle off|on) * It takes you to the nearest waypoint (regardless of if it's contested), at no additional cost (i.e. free). * Works only on Central Tyria "[World Bosses](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World_boss#List_of_world_bosses)" * Must be L80 * Waypoint must be unlocked already. Sounds very handy for those who like to cover world bosses but can't be bothered to navigate to them. Potentially useful to reach Tequatl or other bosses that like to shred you. Plus: only 400 gems. _added: only central Tyria bosses, link to list, only L80, WP unlocked_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runeblade.7514 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I bought this so I can level my alts through world bosses. However, you have to be level 80 to use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see your note, but thanks for the suggestion. If you have a merge suggestion in the future, it would be super helpful to use the "Report" to call attention to the need, and particularly, extra special nice to include the link to the other thread(s) that are merge-worthy. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugo.4705 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Yeah that item is clearly a hit. Also just after the beginning of the sale gems values started to increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDub.1530 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I don't like that it overrides contested WPs. For bosses that die quickly, it gives an advantage to those who purchase it. A minor complaint, for an otherwise interesting item, but still important, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice if they could add a whole timetable for all bosses, not just show the imminent threat and the next approaching threat...and if they could show the time too. I have the item now, but I still like to take a look at the event timer on wiki because those features are missing. Frankly, Lazy AF should be my next character's name, so I'm all over this. (btw, I have played GW2 since beta so I am not going from zero play to instant WPs everywhere... I feel like I've put in my time). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkeyspit.3965 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Its a cool idea, but you can just use the wiki event timer and port over. 400 Gems is fine, its the it would take up a shared inventory space - now that is too valuable for something like this :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killermanjaro.5670 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Nice QoL item and a good price too, I'll buy it when I next login (though as with many things I'll probably forget I've got it and still use /wiki et and WPs lol). My only gripe is that from the video I've seen the dialogue still appears behind the inventory window like the tomes do, would be nice if it appeared at the front. Would also be nice if we soon get the option to buy more shared inventory slots. Anyhow I imagine it'll also be very useful for newer players who haven't yet learnt where/when world bosses spawn.

Just a flesh wound.3589 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I bought it. For doing spur of the moment world bosses it’s more convenient than opening up wiki to see what is current. Edit: like all these tomes its panel appears behind the inventory panel. It would be a nice qol improvement if they were changed to appear in front of the inventory panel instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witch of Doom.5739 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 Does this work for HoT and PoF events/bosses, or only central Tyria? Want to make sure before I buy. thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donari.5237 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I can see a side use for this: Since it takes you to the wp, your alts can use it to collect some wps. Only the currently active ones, of course, but it's still a foothold in maps that might otherwise take some running. Unless it only works on wp's you've already unlocked, of course, but that seems a finicky bit of coding ANet isn't likely to have bothered with.

Dang, just went from "must buy" to "eh." :-( @"Gaile Gray.6029" since this only works with central tyria bosses, could/would you inquire about new bosses added or if there will be new devices created for each respective expansion (HoT/PoF)?

Your alts have to be max level tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
