EU always has been in a bad place for GW1/GW2 merch. I hope they will add a hub to ship from the EU to keep the shipping/tax/import costs a bit decent. I would certainly buy more merch if I did not have to pay shipping and import taxes from the USA.

I'm not too keen on these because it requires a third-party account (Twitch) to get your drops. I rather see the rewards to be earnable directly in GW2.

Play at peak times and keep an eye on LFG. Here on EU servers I have no issue finding commanders that advertise their meta run on LFG. Both before and after the official start time at gw2wiki/et. Ofc, you have more chance to find a group when you are there before the start time. At peak times I usually see multiple maps going for the meta at the same time.

If they are just trolling. Just let it go. Usually trolls get bored from it and stop representing after a month or two. Perhaps much sooner. Usually trolls get bored as soon as they stop getting attention. If both guilds are active and accidentally selected a guild name that is too similar (And do not like that), one of the guild leaders may consider contacting support to request a different guild name for their guild. https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013021194-Policy-Guild-Ownership-and-Name-Changes

Yes, probably. But also come with the risk of making fights very annoying to the player. So don't implement it everywhere. But some mobs are just way too easy. "You Are A Fool To Challenge The King Of The Jotun" RIP My King.

Tags are short so you will find many guild using the same tags. I am and have been in guilds with [WOLF] [LOVE] [BAD] and these are so generic that there will be many guilds that have picked them. If they also have the same or almost same guild name things are a bit different, but not much you can do against it. I don't expect Support to take actions against guild names because they are too similar.

DPS Checks are a player invented thing. ANet has no DPS meters in game. Third party developers made a DPS meter and some players who installed them are being an kitten over them. Join a friendly group or raiding guild and you don't have to worry about getting offended over DPS meter readings. Yes, some read bosses have timers and deadly events when the entire group is putting out low DPS. But this is far less of an issue now there has been quite some power creep since the release of the raids and now many players know the raid mechanics very well. Stay away from CMs, join a friendly guild or group and you will be fine.

Please add Relic of Divinity, +10% health to the selectable options. It is still missing after it was removed from the Rune of Divinity with the expansion release.

Looks like this is still in Divinity's Reach. Missed chance to move the festival to Cantha where it originated. But I'll happily play it as it it for my annual +50 AP.

GW1: Prophecies was the best story I experienced in any game by far. With all the plot twists but most of all, the entire game felt like a journey. And the truth is, a journey like that is not possible anymore. GW1 was a massive game and because the open world was instanced, you could truly feel alone with just your party or henchmen. Reaching the Shiverpeaks. Taking the Ascalonian refugees over the shiverpeaks. Meeting the dwarves there. Joining the White Mantle and getting betrayed by them. Heading far into the jungle to witness the bloodstone rituals. Learning the secrets of the desert and gaining personal growth there. Journeying to the Far Shiverpeaks to take on the Mursaat and finally the apex on the magnificent Ring of Fire Island chain. It's a journey like the stories of Tolkien, where the adventurer develops along the way. With GW2, there is no journey as we can just conveniently hop on our skyscales and fly anywhere. Don't get me wrong, I love my mounts. But having this convenience has some serious drawbacks. It's like the hobbits flying to mount doom on the Eagles and dropping the ring in the fire.

I like the idea, but the content is not ideal for randoms by far. We have commanders for a reason. Things like making sure every subgroup has a healer, quickness and alacrity provider. Things like keeping an eye on special roles like a tower mesmer (W3), cannon dps (W1), hand kiter (W4) etc, etc. Raids are a bit complicated for uncoordinated hotjoin. In EU, LFG training is still used quite a bit. And that's where my short guide on getting into raids is written about. In NA, it seems that LFG is used less which is a pity so I fully understand the want for hotjoin. But I don't think it will work out as an usable resource.

I play for long-term goals. That is what keeps me playing. My main goals: I'm an AP hunter. I like achievements and I'm striving for a high achievement rank Legendary gear in every slot All masteries unlocked World completion over every map All mounts A nice collection of cosmetic skins to choose from GW2 is my main game, main MMO and the franchise has been a significant part of my life since I found a discounted box of Guild Wars: Special Edition in my local toy shop back in 2006. ❤️

It would be nice for instances. For open world it would just create a lot of lag. GW2 already has technology to hide miniatures when things get crowded. Imagine every player having between 4 to 9 hero followers. But this is not a bug, but a feature request. Thread should be moved.

Unranked is also rated PvP. It's a bit confusing but still. Easy fix: Play unranked, tickbox conquest checked and go camp the capture points.

Zojja is in the Wizard's Tower. Next to the Convergences portal.

If you cannot make real money purchases in the gem store because ArenaNet or the payment processor that ArenaNet uses does not trust your payment, you can still buy expansions and gem card codes from third parties. ArenaNet has a list of authorized retailers on their website: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/retailers You can also buy from unauthorized retailers such as eneba and cdkeys. But you will not be able to get ArenaNet support if you have problems with the keys these retailers sell. So the authorized retailers mentioned by ArenaNet are your safest option to still buy expansions or gems. When you have the Steam version of GW2, you need to buy expansions and gems via Steam. You cannot use ArenaNet codes then.

This is not a GW2 issue. GW2 cannot just randomly reboot your PC. GW2 can trigger instabilities in your system, drivers, memory, power supply, OS and security software. You will need to test your system for stability or let a computer technician do that for you. Once the computer is stable, you will be able to play GW2 without random restarts.

I don't think it will be likely that you will be able to get your account back. A theoretical option that would be fair to ArenaNet is that you pay for the gems that were purchased on your account but charged back. Then chance your password and recovery information to make sure you lock out the hacker. And have your hardware and software secured following ICT security best practices. This would make good on the damage that ArenaNet took. Then it is up to you to get the money claimed back from the hacker. (Read: Not likely to ever succeed, but that's not ArenaNet's problem) But I don't think ArenaNet ever does this.

My wishes is to get some stuff back I used to enjoy in the past: +10% health relic as compensation of the runesets that lost +10% health as set bonus. (Rune of Divinity in my case) Restoration of the Stone Heart trait to allow for tanky earth builds. Undo PvP nerf of Flamestrike Re-enable celestial stats in PvP

I want moa's to be able to fly away.

Yes.

The passive effect was changed with a game update this year. It still gives protection but no longer via toughness but via direct damage reduction. The reason for this was an unwanted side effect with toughness-based tanking of (raid) bosses. An elementalist playing DPS may have this passive on and get more toughness than the tank after which the raid boss would go for the ele instead. It should roughly grant the same passive protection.

No thanks. The abuse of kick functions can be as bad as the abuse of AFK players in instances. I see more in rewards to participation. I like seeing better rewards for a player that works his/her behind off and loses than a player who AFK's 90% of the time and wins.

I'm playing on a 6 year old Xeon W-2145 with a RTX 3070 and I get excellent performance in GW2. With a few rare exceptions like massive world boss battles. Even when playing with two copies of GW2 side-by side on a 3440x1440 resolution screen. I got a big performance boost after moving from Windows 7 to Windows 11 and going from GW2 DX9 to GW2 DX11. I'm not interested in a GW3 because I'm afraid that I can't keep my existing characters, achievements, gear, currencies and other progression. This already was the case with my transition from GW1 to GW2.

Join public as party. Join at the same time. If you get in separate instances, select the friend, right click and choose join instance. It may take a few minutes of queue but you usually get together.
