You can still change the stats of an ascended weapon if you transmutated the skin and stuck some cheap sigils in it right? I don't care if I lose the sigils.

Yeah, you can throw something in the forge and it'll act as if it's whatever it was originally. Doesn't matter that there's a skin on it. (In fact, it'll warn you that it'll be going into the forge as its original form when you try to do it.)

I would've put my money on losing the sigils if you throw something in the forge. You definitely lose runes if you throw armor in.

Oh cool apple wants to help, too.

So Adriaa pointed out last night that most T6 mats are at crazy low prices right now. Do we know if the gifts for the new legendaries are the same? Because if they are I'd expect those prices to go way up once people start building their raven staves and spaces axes. Even if not, might be a good time to buy if you're thinking about crafting the original legendaries.

I read somewhere that the new legendaries won't use Gift of Fortune/Mastery but HoT equivalents instead. :< People were all grouchy because they made a bunch of fortune gifts in advance but anet will supposedly provide a way to salvage or otherwise recover mats from those

EDIT:
"The Mystic Tribute is a new version of the Gift of Fortune and contains a greater variety of trophies and mystic objects than the Gift of Fortune." https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/hot-new-legendary-weapons/

Should be noted that by "trophies" they don't mean the in-game 'trophy' trash items, they mean materials that are supposed to be "trophies" of your kills or w/e. Poor nomenclature strikes again

"After HoT ships, we will be add a salvage table for Gift of Fortune so you can salvage the parts and get back all the components you can put in the new Mystic of Fortune." http://dulfy.net/2015/10/16/gw2-guild-chat-new-legendaries-and-changes-livestream-notes/

NERF's PvE missions this last week included 2 rushes and 1 puzzles. It was such a delight.

other-ppols-emo.jpg


2 things regarding Rush:

So what originally was that multiple guilds could do it together, now apparently it seems that guilds has to get in a line to have it active to them? I going to guess this is hopefully one of the many bugs, cause why not use instances like Challenge and Puzzle then if only the guild that activated the flag gets the credit.

Speaking of lines, it also sounds like the final flagpoint is bugged, and that players have to go through it one by one, cause it only counts one player at a time. Get that Disney park worthy line going!

Judging this from the Quaggan rush. Didn't bother with the other rush we had. And Puzzle was, well Puzzle, through seems like most of us got the reward (still screwing a couple guildies, despite there only being 13).

Thank god Challenge and Bounty seems to be fine.

We were having issues with the Quaggan rush as well, guild started or no. Rushes are just not behaving :<

With T6 mats down I might just make the Trident because yay underwater combat.

Also I know it's just a blog really buy Dulfy needs a better editor.
Click to expand...

Such a crapfest. Not only the bugs and such, but also how this can drag out the missions, when we would end up repeating stuff to make sure everyone gets the rewards (and that could even require 3 or more times or waiting for a turn with Rush as an example last night). A guildie last night was talking about how insane TTS' missions were cause they were repeating the puzzle and rush, over and over and over and over...

Hi I just got this game a month ago and am enjoying the hell out of it. I'm only 2 zones away from world completion and I haven't even touched expansion zones.

My only complaint so far is that some things seem really complicated in terms of crafting end game materials. My plan right now is to finish the world. Do the season 2 stuff then start the exp story. Should I be grinding fractals and dungeons? Should I be crafting asended gear? I've looked many times and could not find a guide relevant to HOT and crafting legendaries and ascended gear. Is there a universal resource out there that can help me with my questions?

You don't necessarily need to grind anything. Dungeons had a reduction in liquid rewards. The main reason to run them now is if you enjoy them or want the skins. Fractal rewards are supposed to be buffed in December so you don't necessarily need to start them now, though you could get a headstart on stockpiling fractal keys and encryption boxes. Even then this isn't necessarily something you need to do.

To clarify, ascended gear is only necessary for high level fractals (due to agony) and maybe raids. We'll know Tuesday when raids launch. You can use www.gw2crafts.net as a guide to leveling your crafting so you can make ascended stuff. Legendary weapons are almost purely vanity, with the advantage of being able to swap stat sets when out of combat. They require a ton of resources so I'd suggest only pursuing one as a long term goal.

Damn you Fallout 4! I want to play GW2!

Tried sneaking in some sessions to get to know my Revenant. Man that class is warping my brain. So many combinations.

Leveled to 80 through boosted crafting. Just didn't want to do the main story again. Having all those options at once is tough.

The Guild Hall's Synthesizers have been upgraded to Level 1, meaning everyone will now get an extra hit off them each day now (special thanks to Docbon, who dropped 21 Ley-Line Sparks in there to top it off). Still lots of small upgrades to go before we're sufficient level to get some of the next big upgrades.

As always, the big items are Flax Seed, Ley-Line Infused Tools and Coarse Sand. Here's a map of all the Crystalized Caches in TD; get Nuhoch Trading unlocked and you can purchase the Chak Acid needed to unlock them for Ley Line Crystals. You can also pick these up from the Guild Trader in the GH on days she sells them.

They seem to aim their updates for around 3pm eastern / noon pacific, but that's never been consistent; they've dropped 'em super early sometimes, late others. It's up when it's up, I guess, and we won't know until the "New build in 10 minutes" message pops up.

If folks are super eager, I'd watch twitter and reddit.

To start the Flameseeker Prophecies collection you need to have Scribing at 300 so you could craft Sheets of Quality Paper (account bound) which then you can use to craft Anthology of Villians. Without AoV your collection will not progress...is there a Scribing Crafting guide?
Click to expand...

Sheet of Quality Paper is supposed to be unbound but they screwed up. They're going to fix that at some point so if you're only doing Scribe for the pre, wait until the patch drops to see if they fix it. (Isn't it like 1k gold for 300 scribe?)

Ah okay. Noon pacific. I was thinking noon eastern for some reason. I'm always at work when the patch drops so I wasn't too sure about it.

I'm hoping you are right because I don't have the money to bring Scribing to even 50 let alone 300.

So many recipes require Flax Fiber which seems to be at lower drop rate than Foxfire.

Yeah it's a bit ridiculous. I'd probably just buy the pre straight up if they don't fix it soon, it's like 500g for The Chosen on TP and like 1k g for 300 scribe lol

Yeah I know but I kind like the idea of building it up slowly but it is going to suck (I'll probably give up) if the scribing prices stay this high.

Is scribing required in all legendaries?

Started the predator as well and it seems pretty basic just picking up items from open world. I think some items are missing and hope they get fixed today.

In the end it is a lot cheaper to just buy a lot of the precursors. I bought my Zap straight out - but also because the collection was broken several places.

November 17 Release Notes

NEW FEATURES AND CONTENT
Raids
Spirit Vale
A Pact squad has gone missing in the northern Maguuma jungle, and you and your allies are their only hope for recovery. But the deadly forest isn’t the only risk to the rescue operation—the area holds dark secrets and strange magic.
Form up as a ten-person raid squad and enter the Spirit Vale instance from the northeast corner of Verdant Brink. Take on epic encounters that are the ultimate test of your skill, and begin your journey toward acquiring legendary armor!

Enhanced Squad UI

  • The enhanced squad UI feature provides functionality to manage large groups of players in all areas of the game.
  • Players with commander tags will be able to create squads of up to 50 players, which can be split into as many as 15 subgroups.
  • The squad commander can also create a “raid” squad type, which is limited to 10 players and required for entering into raid instances.
  • The squad commander can broadcast to any subgroup individually or to the whole squad at once.
  • Permissions can be set by the commander to allow potential squad members to join at will, to request permission to join, or to require an invitation to join.
  • Commanders can also organize subgroups with a simple click-and-drag interface or allow the squad to organize itself, including sending invites to other players.
  • Members of a squad will be able to see each squad member’s name, profession icon, health bar, and downed or defeated status.
  • Commanders can initiate a ready check for squad members to respond to, and the whole squad will see a visual indication of their response.
  • It will no longer be possible to be in a squad and a party at the same time, but just as in a party, your entire squad will be shown on the map, with special icons for your subgroup.
  • A Toggle Squad option allows squad members to show up to 10 members of their subgroup using the traditional party UI that displays boons and conditions.
  • In World vs. World, squad members will see the supply carried by each subgroup as long as you’re in the same map area as your supply-carrying squadmates.
  • Players that have not bought a Commander’s Compendium may create a commanderless squad that is invite only, limited to 10 players, and has reduced functionality.

Special Action Skill
A new skill button has been added that can appear above the skill bar during certain context-specific phases of encounters (initially raids). When the button appears, the skill displayed for use will be driven by the encounter. Players can keybind this skill under Options > Control Options > Skills.

New Legendary Weapons

Three new legendary weapons are now available to be crafted. Speak to Grandmaster Craftsman Hobbes in Lion’s Arch to start your journey.
  • Legendary Axe: Astralaria
  • Legendary Pistol: HOPE
  • Legendary Staff: Nevermore
Crafting these new weapons will require the Scholar of Secrets ability in the Legendary Crafting Mastery line.

ANOTHER damn button. Arg.

A new skill button has been added that can appear above the skill bar during certain context-specific phases of encounters (initially raids). When the button appears, the skill displayed for use will be driven by the encounter. Players can keybind this skill under Options > Control Options > Skills.
Click to expand...

Hawk, gotta update the profile. :p
