better known as "buy mistlock pass and forget about it"
cloud narwhal
I was looking at it more for the achievement
cloud narwhal
I'm starting to realise that about alot of collections.
glacial locust
yea, it's a little sad but the alternatives are generally "farm a bunch of gold" and there's a lot of stuff to spend gold on first...
there was a phase in this game where MC were 20s and ANet has just never gone back to update recipes
cloud narwhal
At first I thought "Oh I could just craft this while Halloween is going on"
I think I vaguely remember mystic coins being alot cheaper.
like pre HoT
glacial locust
yea
for a lot of this stuff i wish they'd introduce an alternate currency so they could disconnect legendary crafting and stuff that should be expensive from stuff that should be cheap
hollow oracle
Why was i pinged , I forgot o.o, why didnt the channel notify me 
wth
nvm ignore this msg ,I remembered

leggy ring this xpac, maybe wait for it
open world 1 i think
cloud narwhal
hopefully. 1 is tied to raiding and the other to wvw. would be nice for an open world option.
teal vault
Yeah I want a second leggy ring, but I want it to be different one. Already have conflux. Raiding is daunting so I hope it is open world ring in next quarterly VoE update.
glacial locust
hopefully quickplay raids still give LI, that'll make the the raid ring a lot less annoying
tardy ore
now we wait 
fickle barn
dang
rancid musk
leme get that
tardy ore
i was gonna wait until the prices recover from the 4 winds event
but aint nobody got time for that
fun fact: it cost 460 gold to just list the item
which i luckily got by getting a choya tonic drop that sold for 500g
crystal cave

theres an event right now in raid academy where they're getting new people into raids
tardy ore
the other day a joined a squad for pinata and got greeted by a squad message saying this was a 11h meta train
wind tendon
...That feeling when one realized the 8 total makeover kits were still on the deleted character....and now sits waiting for a support ticket response...depressed....sigh..
wind tendon
Anet support came trough and sent me replacements! yaaay!
dry pilot
of course gw2 servers die when i was about to test the power quickness troubadour build
: (
fickle barn
stuff i love about gw2 devs that no other mmo companies do they take the time out of thier day to talk with thier community
fickle barn
another mostly free legendary thanks Anet
tardy ore
PSA: your extra life stacks are not gonna update unless you visit lions arch with any of your characters
currently its 11 stacks
signal oracle
time to get some swim speed infusions and never leave the water
teal vault
This one took a while. Thinking about maybe cutting down on WvW time. maxing these tickets out at 13 to 17 hours a week really eats up my time lol
tardy ore
i started prepping for my obsidian armor
its gonna burn a hole into my savings
potent crow
Grats
I planned on getting warbringer as well but i dont have the discilpline lol
Hard for me to wvw in enough consecutive weeks
How expensive is obsidian armor?
Heard it was just a lot of convergence and rift farming, but I obv have no clue on what it needs
tardy ore
lots of rift essence and soto currencies as well as provisioner tokens
signal oracle
also a lot of map meta completion
unique herald
I cant remember who it was that had gw1 nostolgia playing gw2
I wanna guess it was @pale flint but im prob wrong
pale flint
yeha i played a ton of gw1 from release
pale flint
OMFG
WAT
HOLY SHIT
yooooo
i hope this means i can link it to my gw2 account finally!
i will start over
unique herald
AYOOOO
lament kayak
pale flint
i have both the box versions and the steam one
pale flint
yeah on their site
and abck in the day i bought the boxes from a shop
they came out pre-steam running the world
rancid musk
Added a new Matchmaking tab to the World vs. World UI that replaces the World Restructuring - Beta tab. This is a new location to select teams and battle guilds that should be more approachable for new players.
Players without teams will be shown the Matchmaking tab when opening the World vs. World UI.
Removed the battle guild selection from the Guilds UI.
teal vault
Anet nerfed the VoE mirror farming and ecto prices jumped back up. I regret not pulling the trigger and investing in them at 20s a piece.
dry pilot
https://youtu.be/80f2LGducmM?si=jtNQUtL27RLwNRGs
No mention of EOTN tho
fickle barn
yeah will have to wait for stream tommorow devs will answer questions
glacial locust
probably just re-bundling the main campaigns but remastering the whole game and keeping eotn as a separate sale
dry pilot
Yeah, that's what i think
glacial locust
seems like they're even throwing a bone to people who were in my shoes awhile back and unlocking them all for people who only own some of them
fickle barn
yeah all you have to do is have 1 of the 3 campaigns and u get the rest free
eotn is a a expansion
glacial locust
i wonder if they'll give everyone the /bonus weapons
pale flint
my main hope is that in doing this they make it so we can link a gw1 steam account to a gw2 steam account
i dont even care about starting over
fickle barn
i know u can link your gw1 steam to your gw2 steam now for the hall of monument rewards
iit was talked on by a dev
tardy ore
pvp rush is ass
cant do shit when half the enemy team goes full tryhard and plays immortal tank builds
potent crow
Yeah, thats been the biggest flaw in gw2 pvp imo. Tanky builds are just too strong
While possible to beat, you need to outplay them by a huge margin
orchid rover
potent crow
Nice. From SAB?
crystal cave
i need to get working on getting homestead decorations
fickle barn
they said future gw1 content possible!
signal oracle
hopefully we get to see the events that establish Ebonhawke!
fickle barn
yeah he said they were gonna lower the price of it
but it is its own DLC so seperate
so itll probably be like 10-15$
compared to its current 20
same with cosmetics
tardy ore
are they gonna add jumping for the remake ?
fickle barn
its not a remake
its only quality of lifestuff for now and "possible" content in the late future but mostly just touches to start.
crystal cave
The entire game is one 2D grid I feel like jumping would completely break it xd
dry pilot
They will add slight graphic improvements but that's it yeah
signal oracle

dont miss a day while the odds are heavily stacked against you , you never know.
fickle barn
gw1 reforged tommorow
pale flint
Anybody know what time the updates gonna happen?
pale flint
im ready for it
gonna put it on my steamdeck
contorller support would go hard when theres only 8 abilities to work with
tardy ore
and no jumping 
tardy ore
i should be done with my first obsidian armor piece this weekend
fickle barn
wind tendon
At least now more people will hear about the tragedy of Shiro Tagachi, and how he was manipulated into becoming the greatest villain in Cantha's history.
fickle barn
download speed is oof righ tnow
fickle barn
we in and games boomin
pale flint
is I Pull Levers Well there??
fickle barn
?
pale flint
The classic bot
You party up with it for the res soil quest and for her to go pull the lever so you can go through the gate
*sigil
Omg reforged has legacy style movement
Actually huge
Plays well on steam deck. After a little figuring out controls it's all intuitive.
So happy I can play this in bed now. Gw1 is one of my super nostalgic comfort games
Linked it to my steam gw2 account now too. Have to start over with the steam login but honestly idc, it's worth
It's crazy to me seeing pre-sear ascalon very populated again after 20 years
fickle barn
insane
also @digital bronze if wanna catch the christmas event it starts next week depending how your plans are.
rocky sparrow
Blame having good ping
teal vault
Team chat in a new link sure is something lol

fickle barn
bro my medic thief gutted on stealth lord reviing oof
pale flint
anybody else working on legendary defender of ascalon since reforged dropped, or am i the only one that needs to see their therapist? 
pale flint
i forgtot about this in gw1. even after you die the footprints you left remain on the gorund to see the path you walked
fickle barn
Mhm
tardy ore
anybody else working on legendary defender of ascalon since reforged dropped, or...
theres a 20 hour guide for elementalist if you still have sanity left
pale flint
sanity?
please
im doing it on mesmer
im over the annoying part of doing it on mesmer now anyways
still a lot of grind left, btu the daily quests make it easy
after you hit like level 10 with mesmer and a pet from leaving the ranger secondary quest up it becomes so straight forward
just take the daily, farm the mobs until youre bored and then turn it in
i got the charr in the northlands one today so i just casually full cleared the map and got like 2/3 a level of exp
after i hit the wall at 15 ill turn in every quest to try and bump to 16 so i can get the top tier dailiy mobs, then its a smooth grind till 20
i assume the guide goes through this stuff, but more min max optimised
once i get to like level 14 i might drop the rnager pet, take ele as my sub job and have smooth sailing on charr packs with my healing, free casts, and firestorm
they def made this so much easier thna it used to me
no death leveling makes it actually a nice and fun grind
if im fully optimised on ele as my main id assume it takes 20-40 hours total. unoptimised on mesmer i assume like 40-50ish
not a bad grind for one of the more elusive titles im ngl
1 or 2 hours a day and im done before 2026

So how is Guild wars 1 reforged re-remaster the re-reckoning?
fickle barn
its got a steady amount of new players so will see what else they approve or possibly add in the future with their income

fickle barn
dont forget tommorow starts the big give aways

what kind of crazy give away is that?
rocky sparrow
From a rich ass community
glacial locust
https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Feedback:Game_updates/20251218 update for gw1 too
tardy ore
medium obsidian armor 3/6 done
my shopping list has shrunk considerably in the last few days
tardy ore
my shopping list has shrunk considerably in the last few days
5 CM converges later
pale flint
holy shit the pre sear beta updates are so nice
having the outpost in the northlands makes charr runs much less frustrating
especially wiht the extra spawns
havent gotten to post-sear yet to ttest the updated henchmen, but any henchman update is a good one cause those early game ones were weak if you dont know how to play yet, or skipped through pre at like level 4
fickle barn
yeah the 4 man is so good for friends
teal vault
tardy ore
5 CM converges later
the end is near
glacial locust
the map currencies are what kill me
teal vault
I have my shopping list on buy order. Once they fill I will have my obsidian armor, finally. Making all 6 at once.
teal vault
aaand done. 😄
tardy ore
the map currencies are what kill me
i just should have started adding the map metas to daily todo list earlier
fickle barn

tardy ore
im already collecting for my next 2 legendary weapons 
tardy ore
guess im not playing wvw this week then
this is the worst matchup iv seen since i came backa few weeks ago
half an hour ago all we had were 3 camps in all 4 maps
Blue is made up of a 5 guild alliance of 1200+ people, red has 3 guilds with 900+ peole and my team, green has 2 guilds in the alliance with barely 600 people
wind tendon
9 years it took
wind tendon
what is it tho
A cosmetic infusion (looks like confetti particles around a player character) that sells for around 4600-5700gold
tardy ore
only if you get to sell it
my chac egg has been sitting on the tradingpost for 2 months
with people undercutting for more than 1000g
and theres a 5% non refundable listing fee
fickle barn
tardy ore
just in time as im preparing to craft the legendary raid armor
teal vault
Next grind is vision
tardy ore
im currently stuck in the eternal cycle of crafting gift of condensed magic and gift of condensed might

That's only from wvw
nvmd, you are right
cloud narwhal
Haven't touched the game in a while. How is VoE going?
fickle barn
good just waiting for next story update in a couple months
cloud narwhal
boss rush event going now
out of the loop, whats that?
rocky sparrow
tardy ore
they just keep adding boxes that have a chance for rare infusions
meanwhile the one im selling has been sitting in the tradingpost for 6 months
constantly getting undercut
i had to liquidate a lot of stuff just to have enough gold for the listing fees
tardy ore
imagine you drop the mos expensive infusion in gw2, sell off a bunch of stuff to even afford the 450 gold listing fee only for the devs to keep adding new sources for said infusion 
rocky sparrow
Marketing skill issue 
tardy ore
i finished my second legendary accessory
now i just gotta farm 5k gold to craft backpack + 2 rings and im full legendary equiped
rocky sparrow
fickle barn
tardy ore
part of the event is opening a cat cafe in your homestead

My thoughts on the expansion update
Map: ||10/10 beautiful.||
Story : || 5/10 a let down after 6 months I was expecting much better story like on release it fell flat I’m hopping the finale makes up for it.||
Meta: ||7/10 so close to perfection aaaah where is the final boss!!! Anet!!!!||
tardy ore
im glad they finally added a meta with a chance for actually good rewards
fickle barn
Yeah hope they add mount skins and stuff to more content
tardy ore

slayyyy
i do wonder what a gw3 would look like, given the massive departure from 1's style
i hope they do te same wiht 3 like they did with 1: take it in a bold new direction, but continue support for the old games for the boomers
ive been so happy with reforged, and the continued balances and updates since it dropped
unique herald
Gw the one mmo that i dont spend 500hrs picking a class
All roads lead to mesmer
Elementalist is bait
Gw3 should be nice hopefully
cloud narwhal
👀
neat stratus
Gw3 with all the insane backend tech they’ve learned over gw2 will be neat
cloud narwhal
I assume this means gw2 will stop getting updated as frequently
fickle barn
idk will see cause they just started updating gw1 again
ebon nebula
pls let it be GW3
pale flint
Its hard to say cause when gw2 was announced they cancelled an expansion for gw1 and didnt update it in any substantial way for like 14 years. Its hard to say what theyre gonna do with 2 since its such a cash cow for them
I hope they do another expansion for 1. Say that its its own timeline and not related to the lore in 2 and just continue peak
cloud narwhal
Theres already like a 200 year timeskip between gw and gw2. That not enough for gw1 to make content?
fickle barn
People speculating gw3 is a prequel to gw1 cause that looks like Orr not destroyed in trailer
But will wait and see
ebon nebula
Part of me want to be a new thing/game, so everyone can start fresh
fickle barn
Oh it will be a new game they already got the website made for gw3
People Just don’t know what era it will be either before gw1 and 2 or after
fickle barn
ah yes time to live out my bear fantasies
fickle barn
Yeah I got it
fickle barn
yeah they do that every pride month
ebon nebula
plssssss be it
hope the announcem,ent is during SGF because before that I'll be at work
ebon nebula
Oups wrong discord channel lol
cloud narwhal
ITS REAL
neat stratus
next september beta 
fickle barn
i see no charr currently, human,kodan,and asura is the 3 i saw
wind tendon
it looks like a standard UE5 type game....and that visual style is....too ubiquitous in gaming now-a-days....not really enthused by the visuals
fickle barn
digital bronze
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
fickle barn
crazy this takes place 1000 years in the past of gw1
cloud narwhal
AYO
a prequel?
fickle barn
mhm, hopefully other races make it in eventually
cloud narwhal
quagan? 👀
unique herald
better as a prequel
no need to feel the need to include all the shit currently in guild wars
clean slate
and if they do invent something new not in gw2 its still fine sorta
can just bury the technology or somethin
fickle barn
yeah prequal is when the world is at its most magical
neat stratus
wow just like metal gear solid 
ebon nebula
tomrrow seems we will learn more about it
