[Mantra Change in WvW]

What about a middle ground? Last charge recharge is longer, but no cast time to recharge. Still a trade off, but no annoying charge mechanic.

[Crash loading Crown Pavilion [Merged]]

I've still never crashed again after prefreset. Screenshot your preferences and set them back after reset, much better than dx dancing.

Dunno why but some seemed to suggest some ideas are coming from some collective of gvg american players? No source, 0 credibility, just heard it a couple of times in discords.

If you look around, you'll find a Google doc from a certain guild which listed "remove boon denial from WoD" under every single profession's suggested balance. Devs play with and talk with these individuals. Just sayin - the boy has influence.

[GW2 and Windows 11]

Win11 is just a fresh paint on Win10. Performance should be ~1% of each other. Gaming results are all over the web.

[Mad King's Clock Tower animation and collision issues.]

The biggest one for me is after the big fall jump at chest 3 -- that platform I was 80% of the time falling through. The collision isn't there even after waiting a full second or 2 after the animation.

 

The first platform is just glitchy, it's not a big deal

[New elite specialization: The Vindicator]

Didn't see it in the preview, but does anyone possibly know what happens to your duality skills on legend swap? Do they retain their current state or revert back to Archemorus?

[Istani Bounty Hunter achievement not giving credit [Merged]]

Same. Only Smoldge

[On a scale of 1 to 10, what's your EOD hype?]

6.5 -- just a bit above meh, since there are some things that will actually matter to me. The new specs mainly, since I primarily play wvw. They have not announced any other big changes to WvW - alliances so far are just the matchup changes.. they have not promised scoring, reward, mechanics or any other change that will shake it up.

 

Fishing will be okay while I am paying attention to other screens.

["Join in... [instance]" bug]

It logged me out on my account that owns EoD

[That right garden plot in the home instance]

Yes, it's driving me nuts. The back one in Rata Sum - 1 or 2 of the crops kick me out. The right one sometimes does as well. This only happens on my main account using the Consortium Sickle with Bounty Glyph. My other accounts with standard tools do not kick them out.

[About those with more legendary items than can be held]

It depends on what happens when I make more duplicates if it is a waste of resources. Suppose I want more Envoy armor but don't have the requisite items, but have plenty of the stuff needed to make more copies of WVW gear. 

 

If I knew I would get more Legendary trunks it could well be worth it.

 

Another question is what happens if you have every legendary of a type already? The trunks don't do you much good unless new legendaries are added when there is a new expansion.

 

Inquiring minds want to know.

 

 

You will get a Legendary item that can only sit in your inventory, not go into the Armory.

 

The people that have every type just get to keep the extras in inventory. Small chance the trunks get updated for EOD.

[Spare Legendary Upgrades - don't forget about us!]

Got a choice of any Legendary Armor, Sigil or Rune.

[Legendary Andies, hold on to your asc gear until the eod reveal.]

Andies - plural of Andy.

[I feel screwed over by the Legendary Armory [Merged]]

And those arguing that PvE vs WvW/PvP sets -- how about just using a different Ascended precursor from WvW ? Are you hard-set that since we specifically chose to use different skins to craft our Legendaries -- we're not entitled to this compensation, but someone that chose to use the same base for their Legendary armor - is?

 

Just because it's a different item ID, does not mean it is functionally different. Either nobody should get compensation, or everyone with duplicate functioning armor should not. 

[Legendary Armory: Follow up clarifications]

WvW armor can be created from either ascended skin. Are they considered the same set, therefore triggering the 'only 1 unique' flag for compensation? They are ascended skins so they should get flagged, there's no need for multiple sets of these anymore.

[The Legendary armory and eternity]

I would seriously hope those 'tokens' actually consume the items from the armory if they're used. 

[eVerY oNe hAtEs nO DoWnsTatE]

It's almost as if there's more to the week than no downstate as well, HMMM?

 

The downed state has been disabled in WvW during this event! Additionally, earn double WXP, increased reward-track progress, and increased magic find!

 

HMMM?

[Mystic Forge Refill button closes the game]

Refilling for Mystic Salvage Kits (which only fills the stone slot) -- also crashes.  Doesn't matter which MF you're at.

Do we have a source for this? The emblems part, i mean.

 

CMC mentioned it a few times when they did the WvW streams.

[Heavy Loot Bags & Removal of Retaliation]

929 kills and 298 bags in our 3 hour reset raid on Weaver, and Firebrands/Scrappers only hitting an average of 1/3 that.

 

Absolutely unfair for support players. Not all players want or can rotate roles to even out the participation. The game should do that for us. 

 

I can donate all my bags but they still do not get kill credit, hampering their achievement progress.

[I heard WvW was fun for a few hours before the hotfix, True?]

No, in fact they should scale back damage a bit more since people are running with 80%+ uptime of quickness, and Conditions do damage now, so ttk is too low again.

There's no way to fix the tagging system, because it's inherently flawed due to it incentivizing selfish behavior (tag enemies rather than working for group success). And for the most part the game has moved past it.

 

As I mentioned, average out the contribution based on damage, heals, boons, strips in a given fight, then award a shared pool of drops, and award kill credit for all enemies you helped kill based on that contribution. They already have the technology to give contribution based on boons and healing, but you still need to damage the enemy. They can remove that requirement just as a start, and just straight up give kill credit when you heal/boon up someone else that got kill credit.

Oh, and Emblems of the Avenger. Why? You only need 2 at most, and honestly that's just extra garbage in my inventory these days.

 

Again, as I mentioned. These Emblems are planned to be currency for tickets or something else. They will not be garbage. Soon™

[Heavy Loot Bags & Removal of Retaliation]

It's a good 30-60%+ nerf to bags and kill credit for support classes. This affects number of drops, UD credit, and Emblems of the Avenger (which devs have plans to allow turn-ins for tickets or something else) -- so it is something they should look into fixing. It shouldn't be just about how fast you can tag as many people as you can, it should average the contribution from boons, strips, heals, damage for everyone in a fight.

[Tanking, How Do We Fix It?]

You already made a thread about "tanking"

You're on cooldown.

[Your thoughts on previous Nerfs]

All of them were justified - some need to be retuned - the 300s traits, the damage of hard CC skills.

There's still a LOT of outliers that weren't touched, or were barely scratched. Guard symbols, DH traps, Chrono CC+Strip interaction, Berzerker burst, Purity of Purpose.. just to name a few.
