  1. I would love to have a way to make the commander tag in wvw easier to follow when there is a large fight. I have found that setting a personal target helps. But I still lose sight of the tag more times than not. I have all of my gfx setting turned low but the gamemode is still a light show. And as much as I would love to place 100% of the blame on Anet, I know that at least part of the problem is my old man eyes.
  2. In my humble opinion, Anet should give us the ability to craft aquatic headgear (all rarities and levels) before anything legendary.
  3. I would also love to see more phantasm weapons. And while spirit weapons already have a collection associated with them, I would still love to see more spirit type weapons added.
  4. Hi. You can get the achievement by reviving any ally (not just players). Check out the wiki, in the "Notes" section they give some pointers on how to get the achievement. Good luck.
  5. I have it blocked. Animated GIFs, scrolling text, and autoplay videos are examples of things that annoy me while I'm attempting to browse a forum. And for that reason those annoyances get blocked. Unfortunately it does mean that from time to time I am out of the loop for some threads (like this one).
  6. Today I experienced the same bug playing through Living World S4E3: Be My Guest. I used the signet ring throughout the mission to reveal traps. And I also used the signet ring to reveal the "Will of Joko" enemies in the final room. But at a certain point Joko/Jokos stopped appearing. I was left in a room with nothing but the Bloated Plague Scarabs. The "restarting from checkpoint" option did not help. Based on this thread it sound like it will eventually work if I wait a little while (I'll retry tomorrow). Update: I logged in today and I completed the mission without any bugs. I completely exited the quest yesterday and I was expecting to replay the entire quest today. But when I entered the instance I was placed in the final room (I am very thankful for that).
  7. You perfectly summarized my feelings on this issue. I started playing a little over 3 years ago (I bought both expansions). At first, I completely ignored dailies. But when I started completing them regularly I found it annoying that the game nudged me into an expansion zone. I was particularly annoyed when the "event" dailies where in an expansion zone because those where my favorite (completing open world events with random players was a lot of fun for me as a new player). It wasn't a huge deal. I either did another daily or I ignored the daily that day. It would be nice if the expansion dailies would only appear if you have completed expansion content or visited the expansion previously.
  8. I went very slow. The entire process of obtaining the Skyscale took me around 3 months ( I had planned on taking more time but getting the mats when faster than I had anticipated). The saddle took me about 1.5 months. Some people enjoy the old school MMO grind and they can knock it out really fast. I took the opposite approach. I only wanted to spend at most 15 minutes of my playtime working on the mount. I set a weekly goal for the 6? materials needed for the saddle. Every time I logged in I did a Renowned Heart (to buy some materials) and did a little mining/chest opening. Sometimes I would get caught up in a meta-event which rewarded a material that I needed. The above was basically my process. I didn't know about the "Return to Living World" achievements. A lot of people grind it out as fast as they can. But, I didn't want to feel burnt out when I finally got the mount. That is how I got through the process (without going crazy). Good luck.
  9. Hello. I used this guide to setup my action cam settings. The video is from 2017 but I believe that the info is still relevant. The settings outlined in the video have made action cam much easier for me to use. Good luck.
  10. 1) To my knowledge, GW2 has never been supported on tablets (Android/Apple). I know it is possible but it is not officially supported. 2) ArenaNet ended support of Mac clients last July. Link. You can also check out some discussion thread here but I'm sure how much it will help you as you want to play on an iPad. In my opinion...No. Anet could officially introduce tablet support in the future, they could reintroduce Mac support in the future. But I don't think we are going to see support for those things in the "near future". Again, people are running the game on tablets. So perhaps there is hope for you, but currently there is no official support. It is a great game. I hope you have the chance to play with us. Good luck.
  11. I just finished the instance and had similar issues. If I recall correctly there are two flavors of mobile mechs, the tall two legged variety and the short multi-legged variety (there were other destroy-able mobs but they didn't move). For the first round, I destroyed all of the mechs except one, the shorter multi-legged one. It was above the floor, I could see it, and I could target it but it did not move. When I tried to attack it I got the message "Obstructed". After yelling at the screen for a minute I exited the instance to the character select screen and re-entered the game. NOTE: I didn't have to redo the entire mission. After re-entering the game, I was placed on the map next to the mission entrance. When I entered the mission I was placed at the final room, I didn't have to redo the earlier work. I only mention this because I thought I would have to redo the entire thing over again (others searching for this bug don't have to stress like I did). The second time I attempted that part of the mission I was able to kill all the mechs. There are a few phases to the final room. In those phases I had that same type of mech get stuck under the floor a couple of times. I could target the mech but I could not hit it with single target attacks (Obstructed!). I could hit the underground mechs with AoE attacks.
  12. Are you using an AMD graphics card? If yes then try reading this link or this link. None of the solutions in those links helped me. But if you are using AMD then maybe they can help you. I had the exact same issue with Elder Scrolls Online when they offered a free weekend. I downloaded the client and when I logged in for the first time everything had a blue-ish tint to it (colors inverted). I discovered that I could "fix" the issue by alt-tabbing back and forth between the game and my desktop. Eventually the color would correct itself (but then my desktop colors were wrong/blue). I have a terrible desktop for playing the game so all of my graphic settings are very low (I limit my fps to 30 for example). But I have never had the blue color issue with Guild Wars 2, until I tried the DX11 beta. Alt-tabbing did not help in this case. But changing my graphics resolution from "Windowed Fullscreen" to "Fullscreen 1680 x 1050" or lower did remove the blue. I didn't have any crashes when I tried the DX11 beta setting. I'm running Windows 10 by the way. I have disabled the DX11 beta for now. I'll keep trying it with every game update.
  13. Sorry for thread-necro. I am experiencing a bug similar to the OP. I have the same animation and looping sound. The difference is that I'm using an axe (with the ambush skill).
  14. After a recent Octovine, a group of people dropped 5 to 10 bundles on several of the loot chests. It was an annoyance. The first time I got hit with the Aviator Box I didn't find it amusing and I don't find any of the tricks to be lighthearted fun when I occasionally get hit with it now. I don't understand why people who play this game would argue against preventing this type of behavior. But ArenaNet has done nothing about this "issue" (clearly they don't see it as an issue). So I'm not going to obsess about it.
  15. I do have an issue with how mounts are acquired. I don't like how getting the glider and raptor spoils the main story for you. When I reached level 80, I had not finished my personal story (I didn't use level boosters). I didn't like how the story was broken up every 10 levels. So I planned on reaching 80 then playing through all of the content at once. At some point I wanted the glider and raptor. I didn't know that there were such huge spoilers in each "unlock" story. Ultimately it was my fault for not playing the story in order. But I really hated those spoilers. I don't think new players in Core Tyria need mounts. I won't fight against them getting access, but I don't think they are necessary. I do think that if players pay for Path of Fire and they meet the proper level requirements then those players should be able to gain a mount (even if it is only temporary) without having the story spoiled for them. And I feel the same about the glider. This post is a bit of a thread-jack (I apologize). And I know most people don't care about the story. But I am still so angry at myself for finishing the HoT glider mission and thinking the spoilers wouldn't be as bad in the PoF mount mission.
