What did you get from Anger of the stone face?

I've farmed the battle depths wisps and got a q8 darkwing a few years ago, but that took about a year of farming.

Most luck for me has been Destroy the ungrateful slaves.

This quest adds amfah in the under city

I have a 48gb ddr5 ram, 6900xt and a 9800x3d and the HD bloom option causes big frame drops randomly, I found it to be worst around water.

GPU and CPU usage is constantly very low, and doesn't change when the frames drop, only happened after the reforged update.

I just turn off post processing and 0 frame drops.

In terms of communication, it is unclear on their part not to communicate with the community during an update like yesterday's and to clarify to players whether or not the icons will remain on the characters created. Whether or not creating a character with this option will remain available after the beta (because let's not forget that if they also apply it to old characters, it couldn't be done using this option during creation, so it wouldn't exist today or tomorrow(?). Whether or not the content will then be open to everyone, without distinction after beta. Etc.

In short, Anet, what are you waiting for? You managed to sync an IGN article with screenshots, info, etc., on the day Reforged was announced, but now nothing?

Unfortunately anet has always been poor at communicating, especially in the gw2 era

It's in beta mode, like gw2 you need to make a new character to play the beta.

Will it be made permanent for existing characters? I'd assume so and once it is out of beta the reforged icon will disappear.

The goal seems to be to make prophecies a bit more beginner friendly, especially pre searing, so that's probably why you need to create a new character to experience the tutorial area from level 1 and give them more data points.

Yes presearing is easy for 99% of people on this forum but we have played the game for 20 years, clearly they see data that new players struggle.

And ofcourse it sucks that some people have already done deathless gwamm and won't have the dhuum icon (might change) but you still have the achievement of completing that challenge anyway, a random icon doesn't change that.

And in the worst case scenario of reforged always being separate from our old characters then either make a new character and try the new stuff or just play your old character and nothing is lost.

I think the way they are doing it is good, they can test the waters with beta characters without changing the base game incase the changes are seen negatively.

Quote from Aeronwen

I do not understand Anet saying they respect their long term players and then screwing them over again.

Yes, I am still salty that they took the title only about 100 of us bothered to get and made it thousand times easier with no recognition for those that did it the hard way.

Now they make changes but those of us who have been in Pre for 20 years arn't included!

What's the point of a game that is too easy or where your achievements are devalued regularly?

(I am very happy the original login screens)

They do respect the long term players, that's why it's an opt in option.

And you are included, you just need to make a new character like everyone else.

Not really sure what achievement is devalued, LDoA is easy to get and death leveling is just a waste of time so congrats?

Bought everything on steam but cant seem to access EOTN? im lvl 10 but the quest doesnt show?

Quote from Forty Second Rogue

At this point , anything they are doing to improve and revise the game is a welcome addition, especially free of charge.

I agree with that too, but why, if it were free for everyone in the future, add: Free to existing Guild Wars owners! This would imply that it will not be free for future buyers after this update? Otherwise, why specify it? A communication/marketing error? Added to the store after December 3?

So people who own the game know they don't need to pay for it?

And ofc it won't be free for new players, they don't own the game and therefore need to buy the game. It's a base game update not an additional pack

Nice to have a dev team working on the game, time to buy a new account for a fresh playthrogh when this releases

I would delete, the /deaths saying 1 will ruin the achievement imo

Sorry that happened

Be careful when you go to cap Esurge.

My run almost came to an end

Quote from Mr. Clean(-Value)

I met tong tong and he is indeed a bot but also a freak in bed 😊

women want him and men wanna be him.

Facts 🙏

If I would be a chest I would be very scared of his big bundle of lockpick 😱 cuz swiggity swooty Tong is coming for the booty 🏴‍☠️🪙

What a terrible day to be able to read 😂

C/o: 2a ripbb

Free q8 15-21 deadsword included 😂

ty for all offers

Sell it for gold.

Install gw1

Swap gw2 gold for gw1 ecto.

Uninstall gw2

For actual advice, I would sell it, you can buy way more useful stuff especially as a new player with the gold.

List it at the current selling price and you will get the gold within a day or 2

Quote from IAmSole

lol thats weird af

Not weird at all. Both Torment Claws and Tendrils have always had a chance to wield wands and drop them after being killed. Before the 20th anniversary it was always green Stygian Wands, now the colored trail gives away that it's an anniversary gold.

Understandable tho that it might be news to non-doa players

ah cool, havent done doa for many years

Ty for clearing that up

Also, another thing to back Hate Core up... these just dropped from the Vloxen chest run

Quote from Hate Core

Quote from Brian Oblivion

There's 12 pages of people reporting drops and like 2 or 3 comments doubting Hate Cores comment.

I think youre being a little dramatic with that first paragraph.

Dont get me wrong: I didnt criticize the entire thread. I find the thread and the community overall awesome and great how we help each other here since weeks to do research.

My criticism was regarding people who just doubt in my screenshots and information. Instead of appreciating that I share infos and not just keep it for myself and my guildies to exploit it. I reached a point in my life where giving becomes more enjoyable then taking. Yet I totally understand people like TongTong who were among the first to discover and not share the info. Probably I would have acted the same.

And, yes I was way too dramatic with my post. I hope you got the sense of irony and exaggeration behind it. After all is a 20 year old game and no need to be too serious about all of this.

Thanks for sharing, I totally am in the same position of giving rather than hoarding, much more fun to hunt as a community and share, but of course not everyone is the same. (understable if you want to make bank I guess)

Thread has been good and informative so thanks to the OP.

Now just to try find one of the blades for myself

PAINNNNNNNNN

Quote from Guild Cape

Today I had two torment claws (Stygian veil) start wanding me.

Decided to go back and kill both with heroes out of range, and they both dropped quicksilvers...

Seems my gif won't upload, but: https://i.imgur.com/V0WnXkA.gif

Quote from IAmSole

I think all the weapons can drop from anywhere in EoTN.

If you mean anywhere like anywhere then it is wrong. E.g. vaettirs/raptors dont drop all of the skins for sure.

Possibly from chests, and I would guess any dungeon?

I think all the weapons can drop from anywhere in EoTN.

I got a darksteel from boreal, which i assumed would be charr areas only.

Hourglass which seems asura drop everywhere too.

And i know someone got glacial blades from charr areas.

Quote from Brock

Can it be more 1-off?

11-21?

has anyone tried darkrime for glacials?

Over the last 3 days ive done about 30 runs of dragrimmar with an alt account leaching

So 60 chests opened in hardmode.

0 Glacial blade/blades.

I didnt kill the Fragment of Antiquites

Ive occasionally opened locked chests, but low on lockpicks so not many

I feel like this isnt the place for them unless its from the mini boss

seems my new paragon is blessed with low req shield luck
