How did Guild Wars treat you today? Daily Game Discussion

This thing should be called "Off by one error, not in my favor"....kinda hurts how close it got to being so perfect.

Dont suppose anyone besides a merchant would actually be interested in this, would they?

Quote from yami the seeker

Dejarin Estate in NF on NM. Had a gold q8 tactics one drop a few months back too. (never had anything else good from there mind, the odd q8 focus)

Wish it was 9-40

Was chest running in Kourna and got this my second run. Why couldn't it be 18-34 .

Doesn't matter, go to an instanced area and give up the item so another player or secondary account can pick it up.

You can also pick up an item that a monster has left behind for another player if that player leaves the area or if, after a certain amount of time, the item is no longer assigned to them.

Does that still work? I think they patched something Melandru related yesterday, im not sure what exactly. Swiitisch you should try that with another Item before you drop your Targe on the ground and leave instance.

It was in relation to gold coins and the Xunlai chest in the January 29 update.

There is no need to leave the instance with the character in Melandru mode; simply leave it on the ground for another player.

In the event that an item drops for another player, if they leave the area or the item is no longer assigned to a player after a certain amount of time, the player in Melandru mode may pick it up.

Edit: And even if material merchants are not available for Melandru mode, it is possible to exchange faction points for Amber Chunks or Jadeite Shards. If you want elite faction armor.

Yes. If you read the update, it only specifies:

Quote

Specifically, you:

• can't trade with other players,
• can't pick up drops from other players,

Nothing else.

Basically, Melandru's lazy mode:

- AFK 99% of the time while others complete the objectives.

- Need cash? I accompany a player who is farming, they leave the area, and I collect the drops.

It's less glorious when you look at it that way

i read the whole wiki article and i was under the impression that you couldn't group with other players aswell but you can, weird ironman mod if you ask me

so yeah it makes sense that people can pick up your stuff if they allow you to be in the same party aswell

In a sense, Reforged mode already excludes content if a character in the group does not have it (Piken Square). If they had done the same thing for Melandru, or other future badges (?), it would become complex and exclude many players from playing together. That's why I don't like the alpha version of Reforged mode.

Yup, that is the area and I personally use A/R - OwJSg5PT8I6MHHHQZPRQ4O0k for this chest run. Storm chaser is a game changer for energy management and I like having 2 skills to help deal with the Burning Titans and Hand of the Titans. In a lot of cases, you have 2+ of them on you and these skills cast on multiple adjacent foes, as opposed to single target spells, have fun

MMmmh . . . Will GW be a generous god today ?

At this point it looks like Neutral is the Oracle of Delphi and 2weeks are the greeks

i just noticed that my character did not move towards a merchant i clicked on because a miniature was in the way

And in "I wish it was q8", this tetsubo wins
