  1. Thanks Shadowcatz I didn't realize it was an event. That helps tremendously.
  2. How am I suppose to get this achievement, comrades in arms, when there is no champions? I have looked all over the area they say and even the suggestion on wiki and there is no champions in the area. What am I missing. Or am I destined to never get it because I play when the maps are not packed to cause champions?
  3. at it is missing the dot in last link to your site guildwars'.'com
  4. since the last update all I'm doing is resetting. it is randomly resetting me to a beginning part of my character when I loaded them.
  5. Why is it easier to kill one of the destroyers in public then in personal instance? And then when you choose even just one challenge they don't seem to even take damage for some time? I attacked the same type of destroying in a public instance and it melted. But when I did the instance as a personal one previously, it took me about three times as long to kill the thing.I then decided to go in and see what it is like to do the challenge mote to get the shooting star mp. After trying once with all challenges up and not even coming close to finishing, let a lone get the mp, I decided to just do one challenge and again pretty much insanely hard. Have you all decide that we don't need the mp's now? Because from my point of view that is what you are trying to imply. With even discounting it is impossible for me to get that one mp in the new episode, you have put mp's behind map wide meta's in maps that I have as yet seen been done since the next episode comes out. So some of my masteries I have simply not gotten. And then the masteries we just get seem to be so I can buy things just so I can get more mp to buy more things. I am a bit confused as to the direction of where all this is going.P.S. and this is just a comment for those that might comment. Since there is no way to get an email or some kind of notification I can't promise I will even remember to come back and read later when the comments are finally posted online.
  6. I know you don't care, but I have to post this or it will piss me off to no end.Every update has seemed to progressively made the game impossible to play. Every expansion made it worse to the point I got a new graphics card to play. But with every update I started noticed more and more freeze framing and environment either failing to load or sluggishly loading. And now it is to the point that just going around and farming nodes it will freeze for several seconds.I searched on the net and in the forums for possible reason and have checked them. I even went to the point of uninstalling the game and reinstalling the game. It clears up the problem for a short time then again it starts freezing again. I don't know what you are doing to the game, but it is to the point the only game I have played non stop since it was out to play is now just annoying to open.I have no knowledge of programming so I can't even begin to give any suggestions or ideas. But at least by posting this I can get the annoyance of what is going on with the game. Now you can report or whatever and have it deleted like every other post that rants.
  7. Ah now I understand. Sadly I do not know of any that have the whole story of your character outside the game. But when you have time, while able to be in game, you can jot it down for the character you are using. Its not as convenient as just having it at your finger tips, but at this point the best alternative. The best I can think of is create a flow chart, of sorts or just enough of your in game character journal and reference back to the wiki. The info needed for what I believe you are wanting is in the wiki. You just have to have the reference of that particular character.
  8. Not exactly sure what you are wanting since I can't make heads or tails of your first sentence, but the story is on wiki and your achievements can be gotten on https://gw2efficiency.com/
  9. I had thought of that too. But this is just my perspective on this. Being the only thing that anet distinctly said 'she' that they meant to imply something by using she. Now it could be that they got it off of Jurassic park and that all are female and like you said reproduce asexually. But to me pointing out she is an odd way of anet saying there are male and female so they can reproduce. But with anet anything is possible. Knowing of them, the only reason they used she is because the first dev to comment on the skyscale said she and they went with it. LOL Edit: oh and forgot the main reason for the comment was more in the line that there is no lore to go back to for the skyscale since they never existed on Tyria till they came out of the mysts. So any of the above mention reasons could be the correct one, well until anet comes out and says. And whichever theory is correct on why it is a she it still remains that Gorrik called it she because he more then like has an idea on how to check this on unusual species.
  10. There really isn't any, per say, lore to go by. The Skyscale is a new species created from the mysts. I can't remember exactly where in the study of the creatures by Gorrik it says that. But I do recall in a comment he makes that they came to be. because of what Kralk did. Or at least something in that general idea.But since there are eggs and most species on Tyria are male and female to reproduce, then one can gather from him saying 'she' that there are male and females. So by him referring to it as a she we have to conclude that this hatchling just happened to be female. And by taking into account that Gorrik named the beetle Pete implying male then like Danikat says he of all Asuran's would know the difference of a male or female of a species.
  11. I do like the idea of notes and it has been asked multiple times on this and the old forum, but we have heard nothing on it so not sure we will see it. But we can always hold out hope.Appearance templates I am not sure about although it might end up being part of the template in the works. But last heard they are still working on templates.Doubt there will be an alt inspector. Although I would probably use it if they every added it. But in the mean time you can sue https://gw2efficiency.com. Just set up your key on the gw2 web site and you can look at all your alts in a browser.
  12. If you are talking of the personal story steps, then you can't keep them turned off till you finish season 2. Or at least that is my experience. You can turn it off on a map and it will allow the event display to show and remove the dots that indicate where one needs to go for the next episode. I have several characters that have never finished even the first part of their personal story and no matter what I do that annoying indicator says where the next episode is. But those I have that have finished, I do believe it is season 2, then once I quit any future episodes it does not pop back up till I reactive an episode. As long as I don't have an active story on those that have finished season 2 I don't have it keep popping up for the next story step.But I do agree there needs to be a way to turn it off completely at any stage of the personal story.
  13. The want to focus on certain attunements can be a lot of your problem. Yes each attunement has its unique use, but for a good ele you need to be able use and adapt your use of your attunements based on the situation at hand. When I leveled my multiple different ele's I never went into the down state unless I was swarmed by a lot of foes, and I am not a very good ele.First to know when leveling an ele is that fire is your damaging attunement. It has more boons and damage output. Now when you get 80 there are builds that focus more on air attunement but personally even with those builds I found fire does the damage more then air. Earth is more the condi and damage mitigation. And the most important attunement to utilize when leveling is water. It is your healing and cleansing attunement. So you can see each has their niche for each situation.One thing to know about ele is that it is constant switching of attunements and kite, kite, kite. A good ele never stands still and is always casting something.
  14. Then yes I misunderstood what was being said. I guess I got lost in the side comments to the point I lost the root discussion. But in my defense I am known in person by many as lost. Granted the name was from my my nick I used for the longest time on the net but it does fit me personally.And I personally can't remember the atmosphere of gw1 since it has been years since I played it so I will leave the conversation saying "Sorry me bad" As an aside, honestly never pay much attention to the atmosphere of a game so I will have to take your all's word on that. But to an extent I will say from what I do remember of the missions and the general story of gw1, gw2 is kind of all over the place unlike gw1 where I could follow the story smoothly, or at least easier.
  15. Not sure why you are asking me to point out things I said aren't there. I said in my last post that they were advertised in that clip as different. Maybe you should reread what I typed in my last response. So why are you asking me to show something I never said there was. And as I said the statement 'all the things you loved' is a marketing phrase and says nothing of what will be in gw2. As for the manifesto, give me a link to where it is and then I will personally see what it actually says. As I said I can only go by what I remember and that was a long time ago.I am not here trying to say what is similar or dissimilar. AGAIN I want PROOF of where they said that things in gw2 will be the same as in gw1.
  16. I watched that when it first came out and I watched it again, but it did not say it is going to be like gw1. They said it is going to have the things you like about gw1. Now yes I understand that each person has their parts that they love the most. And they will think that anet was referring to something they personally think should be in gw2, but realistically that is impossible since anet can't know what each individual person loves about gw1. I do agree it is a shoddy way of saying it that can be interpreted in many different ways by many different people, but just by watching that clip one can surmise that it was nothing like gw1. Well I guess I should say some, like me, surmise it will be nothing like gw1 in how it is played. But it still does not prove that anet said gw1 was going to be a gw2 cloneish. Even in the clip they said it is like nothing you have ever seen before, so thus they are implying that it can't be like gw1 since we have seen it before.I will say there are things I loved about gw1 that I wish were in gw2 and vice versa, but I by no means believed that it is possible to make a semi mmo into a full mmo without having some compromises. I still think fondly back on gw1 and yes in some ways like the op I do miss many things about gw1, but honestly I personally don't want to go back to gw1 since it looses a lot of what I love about gw2.My post was simply to say that without proof one cannot say that anet promised anything, and they didn't. 'What you love about gw1' is subjective and honestly just a marketing tool since just about every game does the same type of wording. That does not give proof that anet promised that gw2 will be like gw1 but in the future. Now I do agree that yes it can be interpreted just as you did. I do see that and I agree that it was a crappy way of saying it to just get the gw1 players to buy and try it out. But in the end I was looking for proof of what anet says and they never say in clear terms that it is going to be like gw1 but based on what that clip says it says it will be nothing like anything you have seen before.
  17. I want to chime in here. I played gw1 and waited in anticipation for gw2, but no where in any of their statements did they say that gw2 was going to be like gw1. They made it clear multiple times, from what I remember, that it was going to be a different experience, but with some of the professions and lore. I heard it said and told that it was 250 years in the future and things have changed.But by all means if you can find proof on the net where anet, not people on forums or similar places, said that it was going to be like gw1 then please post them. Because simply saying that it is so does not make is so. Just like many things in gw2 where someone will state that anet promised something, but was never able to provide proof and then another provides proof they said it differently.When gw2 came out I at first thought this is not gw. But I kept with it and eventually learned the game. Now I have tried multiple times to play gw1 and just can't do it. I feel stifled in combat because I can't move, or I can't jump. But each persons memory will vary. And one thing I have learned over time is that most people will only remember the good things and ignore or forget the things they don't like. But how one remembers a game is their own. But to say that anet promised something requires proof.Now this not to say either side of any argument in here is right or wrong. I see points on each, but as I have been watching this thread I have noticed that it is slowly devolving into a mute argument since the thread is already here, but at the same time it really doesn't help either gw1 or gw2 in any fashion. Up til now I was just finding the discussion interesting, but when someone claims something about anet saying something when I can't remember them every saying, I personally want proof they did.
  18. The problem for me and possibly others is that it is another program running while I am playing the game. I can't even run a browser while the game is running, or it stalls completely. No one in any post on this forums or reddit, that I have read, has actually addressed my problem. I have run supposed beneficial programs with anet's games and every time they lock my computer up in some fashion.And having to update another program just to be able to run my game is ridiculous to me. If it where in the game itself then I wouldn't have to worry that the next time I run my game I may not be able to get it to load, or half way through an event the game crashes. Not everyone has money to burn and get the most update gaming machine to play one game.I don't want to have to go to another web site to download and possibly have the program rune my fun. If you can get the thing to work for you, great for you, but for those of us that can't get them to work with the game it is useless.
