anything that can be used as an ingredient should have its own space in collectables. I have no idea why there are so many upgraded craft components that can't be stashed

Same problem here. I'm pretty sure it's a known issue.
Visit your crafting station - The anvil icon is your discovery pane. Underneath is a hammer for crafting, bag for your bank storage and grid of icons for your crafting storage.
You'll also learn new bag recipes at regular intervals. 10 slotters start at 75/400.
To discover new recipes - first be sure you are on your discovery pane, start dragging junk into the crafting pane on the right. As an example for a piece of armor from Armorsmith - drag a jute lining, bronze casing and an upgrade component (malice, precision, vitality, etc) and voila - you just discovered how to craft a new piece of armor and gain a huge amount of XP.
Edit: I often keep several upgrade components stacked so I can discover several different pieces of armor at once - i just make a bunch of linings and casings for head, hand, chest, etc and discover a vit, precision, malice, etc for each. HOOOOOOOOG XP!

The next one isn't, and is a lot shorter too. Haven't had a chance to try the rest (Only lvl 51 atm).
You got that too, huh... lol.

Finally saw my first dragon as well!...From afar and didn't even had a chance to hit him =/

Already submitted a ticket and waiting.
I didn't recieve or replied mails with info or said something offensive ingame.

Can you get the order of whispers armor that Batanga/the rest of their agents wear? It's not sold in their main base as far as i can tell
Thanks. Bookmarked.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
That's a great fight. I did that during the beta. Would love to go back and do it again.
Axe is complete trash compared to Staff.
Rotation to kill any normal mob: Lay down a 4 between the mob and you. Cast 2 and 3 on the mob and attack. Back up and cast 2 off cooldown. Collect loot. Repeat.

AC was pretty fucking hard. I wouldn't mind easier dungeons!

What level do you do CM?
Probably hacked. They're starting to come down on botters, so someone was likely using your account to bot.
Did you play it at a friends house or let them try it?

elementalists, lets compare them notes.
From messing around, staff seems to be overall the most useful (am a bit disappointed that ele can't swap weapons, but that would be a bit ridiculous lol).
Fire: seems to be your primary damage dealer, great mob and dot. Is it just me or is Meteor storm one of the few skills that you can't cast while moving?
Water: heals and support. that 5 skill is great (also seems to cancel if you move).
Earth: seems to be useful for control/support... need to mess with this more.
Air: auto attack is great for mobbing... nothing else is good for combat though. Everything else seems to exist to 'Fuck I'm out!". Force push, drop stasis speed out.
Anybody find any useful combos between elements? Problem is most debuffs are really short to truly take advantage of stuff... hmmm.
Anyhow, seems like the most versatile class i've ever played at low lvl lol. Fun stuff.
It's a fucking pain to grind up skills though.

Guild Wars 2 status - Wednesday, August 29 (self.Guildwars2)
This is the current status of the most important issues we're tracking with Guild Wars 2 live service.
Account security - We're seeing an uptick in reports of account theft and attempted account theft. We believe hackers are using databases of email addresses and passwords stolen from other games and web sites, and pre-existing trojan horses, to search for matching Guild Wars 2 accounts which they attempt to compromise. To prevent this, we have temporarily disabled the "reset password" feature, and we're working to bring email authentication online. To protect yourself, please ensure that you use a unique password for Guild Wars 2 that you don't use for any other game, email account, forum or web account.
Email authentication - Email authentication is a feature that notifies you if someone tries to log into your account from a location you've never logged in from before. Thus, even if someone guesses your game password, he can't log in unless he also guesses your email account password. You can make email authentication even more secure by using an email provider that supports two-factor authentication, such as Google or Yahoo, and taking advantage of that. We're currently preparing email authentication and intend to deploy it in a phased rollout, starting on Thursday, August 30.
Parties, guilds, etc. - Parties, guilds, and other social features are periodically failing. This causes issues such as party members not appearing on the map, and party members not staying in the same overflow servers as they travel between maps. This happens particularly during times of peak usage. We're working to fix related problems and mitigate this issue with each subsequent update.
Worlds - Many worlds are filling up. We're keeping the number of worlds constrained so that worlds stay well populated even after the initial surge of high concurrency. However, we will add worlds as necessary. As of Wednesday, August 30, all German language worlds are full and all French language worlds are at high usage, so we're adding two new German language worlds and one new French language world.
Overflow worlds - During this initial surge of high concurrency, and especially while many characters are low-level and thus playing in the same starting areas, it's common for players to be directed to overflow maps. If you want to play with a friend, but you’re not on the same overflow map, you can form a party together, then right-click on your friend's portrait in the party list and click "join". Note that this functionality is sometimes intermittently unavailable due to the "parties, guilds, etc." issues noted above.
Trading Post - We're working to bring the Trading Post back online. To help test, we've temporarily made it available to a random 15% of players, while we work to resolve remaining capacity constraints that will allow us to open it to everyone.
Edit: We have completed our live testing of the Trading Post for today and the Trading Post is now in maintenance for all players. Thank you everyone that participated; this test has helped us tremendously.
In-game mail - We detected a potential abuse of the in-game mail system and have temporarily disabled in-game mail to prevent any such abuse. We'll reenable it soon, hopefully in tonight's update.
Botting - We'll start substantial banning of bots on Wednesday, August 29. Since we're currently seeing widespread casual, unsophisticated botting, we will start with 72-hour bans for first offenses. In the coming days, as we address the casual botting problem, we plan to switch to our normal policy of permanently banning anyone who runs a bot.
Forums - Our most important priority at the moment is to ensure that the game runs stably and flawlessly. So as to not create additional demand on our infrastructure and on our programming team, we made the decision not to open the forums until the initial mass influx of players has calmed down a bit.
Next software updates - The next update of the game server and back-end server software will take place tonight at midnight Seattle time. The game may be unavailable for approximately 20-60 minutes while we perform the update. We expect this update to have fixes for email authentication and in-game mail. Our continued work on the Trading Post is not tied to game updates, so we will continue to test Trading Post updates throughout the day.

If you are using arcane wave skill and elemental attunement trait, you can give yourself 7 stacks of might by going Earth 2 -> Fire 2 -> Arcane Wave.
You can also go Earth 2 -> Air 5 -> Arcane Wave -> Air 4 for a ridiculous amount of swiftness. You can also swap off air then switch back when the cooldown is up for even more swiftness.

Yeah. This seems to be getting worse. The first couple days I could just go to town and then travel back and it'd let me join. Right now there's nothing working, we keep getting separated and the join option will not show up. Sucks.
we had that problem today while trying to do CM, took a few tries to get it to work
Don't really think you can make that kind of call so early. Give it time.
Nope, was on my house since launch, this game needs an authenticator or something
those two choices determine the early storyline, the three orders take over afterward at ~30 (at least this is the trend up to lvl 50)

I'm starting this game this weekend whether I'm finished with my Dark Souls play through or not. I have so much to learn. I only was able to play during one beta weekend.
Damn, see you guys on sunday.
Percentage is based off number of files, not size, you are just downloading the big ones It will jump soon enough.

Anyone getting incorrect password errors? I login with no issues then bam i can't log..
I hated the human zones, really enjoyed the norn zones. It took me a while to find a class I really liked, finally settled on Warrior after 4 other characters.
Yeah Human starting area is kind of boring but gets better at lvl 20 onwards.

For those who might be Paranoid about the fake email password reset, since Anet has disable password reset you can still change the password in Guildwars 1....
