  1. I like the idea of the inactivity timer on events because it prevents leechers, but I did a loooong event in the Desolation ("Stop informants from delivering spy reports to the raven posts") and was there for 80% of it. Had to step away from my desk for the last two minutes ... and came back to the message that I didn't receive participation because of inactivity. It is beyond frustrating! Perhaps the inactivity timer can be based on a percentage of time spent doing the event? So if the event is 10 minutes long and you're there for 5 minutes of it, at least half, that should count.
  2. Do you play on NA or EU? -- NA What team were you on during January 12-26? -- I have two accounts. Skrittsburg and Phoenix Dawn What team were you on during January 26-February 2? Dragon's Claw and Griffonfall If there is a day of the week and time of day you usually play, what are they? -- I play with my guild Friday reset for 3 hours +, Saturday/Monday/Tuesday 8pm CST to 10pm CST. I play on my own a lot outside those hours, mostly evenings CST until after midnight. Did your world restructuring matchups feel more or less balanced than your regular WvW Server matches? -- queues were HUGE at Friday reset, larger than normal. After midnight seemed really unbalanced. Did you select a WvW Guild for the beta? -- yes for both accounts Was your guild part of a larger alliance guild? -- no Were there usually commanders around during your normal playtime? -- I run with a WvW guild on one account, so yes, always a tag for me. Other account, very few tags or tags running closed. Which week felt most balanced and enjoyable for you? -- neither? What part of world restructuring felt the most well executed? our guild didn't get split up this time, there wasn't a huge amount of DCs or updates at Friday reset. What part of world restructuring feels like it has the most room for improvement? -- I don't want restructuring. I think ANet has underestimated server loyalty and pride. It's not just about your guild; it's about the other smaller guilds on your server, the roamers, the pugs, the scouts, the memes, the sense of being a team bigger than your guild. It's being the same server every matchup, not ... "oh, now I guess we're Skrittsburg". It doesn't inspire people to win. It promotes cliques. Also, we got paired with enemy guilds with active trollers who made our team match pretty awful.
  3. I'd like there to be some sort of node for our home instance that you could get from Lunar New Year, like the Wintersday Tree, Dragon Bash piñata, etc. Obviously should be a firework that gives luck, but maybe you guys have more creative ideas?
  4. Where is Ellen? The letter said to meet her on the bridge in LA, but she's not there. When I click "Show me" in the letter, it sends me to Diessa and she's not there either. FOUND HER. She's on the northwest side of the bridge, on a little wooden balcony thingy. She has an event flag over her head that you can barely see on the minimap!
  5. The portals in Lion's Arch didn't work on reset night. Couldn't press travel at the expected time. Couldn't open WvW panel. When we finally could, queues were huge, but deceptive. Some people have queue of 53 and got put in; others had queue of 4 and got bumped back to 40. When queue did pop, some people were bumped back again. One guy in our guild traveled from Armistice Bastion, was IN the borderland, and he got a queue pop notice to travel to the borderland he was already in. 🤪 Also, guildies get split up onto different servers, as per usual.
  6. I think Anet hasn't fully taken into account that people have immense pride in their server. Sure, there are many guilds on a server, but there are quite a few player that are "XXX Server For Life!" Also, randomly matching guilds has caused quite a bit of toxicity the team chat cuz enemies are on the same team. There are certain guilds that are childish, spiteful, and totally toxic to others. It makes for a bad experience. Finding a world that mostly has good guilds that get along and respect each other is something WvW players strive for. Random matchups take away that comfort, stability, and pride in your teamwork.
  7. There were two instances of GW2 in my task manager, so I manually ended them both and tried again. Works now.
  8. clicking my .exe, nothing happens another guildie is reporting this also
  9. Not sure if it's just me, my computer isn't that great, but sometimes when I go into water, when I come out the other side, my armor skins are borked. Example of Underwater Fashion Change This has happened on multiple characters with all armor weights, in PvE and in WvW. It always happens after exiting water.
  10. The jumping puzzles need to be removed from the WvW rotation, both daily and weekly. They have nothing to do with this competitive game mode, are frustrating to do, and cause you to lose participation. I feel cheated because I don't get my Astral Acclaim cuz I won't waste my time doing a PvE event in WvW.
  11. I'm soooo excited for plush warkitty but hear me out here -- dolyak warclaw skin. TAKE MY MONEY. 🤣
  12. What's strange is this mini-dungeon used to have a skip and that's why it was named Long Way Around. If you were smart, you could just sneak thru a hole. Not sure why they did that.
  13. Crab toss again for daily activity?? Booooooring. I think the activity rotation is somehow synced up to the wiz vault daily rotation, that's why it's always the same. Would be nice to have some variety.
  14. The gem store blog said yesterday and today (nov 26 and 27) equipment templates would be on sale 30% off. They're not. 😞 https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/brew-potions-on-the-go-with-the-alchemic-power-skiff-skin/
  15. There's a great guy on Twitch called Dave Baggins who does amazing screenshots and has a mini tutorial for how to do them. https://twitter.com/dabaggins
  16. Never mind, found her after some searching.
  17. Has anyone seen the lovely Madame Cookie this year?
  18. I would love if the message from Heroes Banners actually said the guild name, instead of just generic "our guild".
  19. Just discovered this great video that explains WvW to new players. Share with your guildies and on your Discord when people are trying to learn how to play the best game mode. 😁 The Ultimate Beginner's Guide to GW2's World vs World
  20. In WvW team chat last night, we had a great conversation about hilarious relic ideas. Here's some we came up with: Relic of the Noob -- +100 to toughness Relic of PVE -- you only have the 1 skill but it's 1000% stronger Relic of Caffeine -- you have constant quickness but -100 to precision Relic of the Skritt -- when finishing a downed enemy, you steal one item from their inventory Relic of Karen -- you summon a manager to assist you What are your funny relic ideas?
  21. Thanks for your comments, guys. Sorry, I guess I should have put this under the Lore section.
  22. What class is Peitha, do you think? Her relic references shadowstepping and deception so is she a thief/mesmer hybrid? (I would be disappointed if she was Mesmer -- there's too many NPC Mesmers already.)
  23. I just noticed this as well and reported it as a bug. It used to give 25 fishing catches that persisted.
