    admittedly my post about model appearance might be deserving of its own thread. i asked the question merely to gauge if others have noticed it too. and i expected for it to get buried in the normal flow of the thread. while separating the 'how did gw treat you today' thread from this general no-drops thread would slow down the process of individual posts getting buried, it would still happen.

    There are also many posts on the original topic that do not warrant a separate or unique topic. I like to remind that from the very first page, this thread was used to post completed titles, etc. That's why it was good.

    We're not going to create 10 different topics. One for drops, one for titles, one for in-game observations, etc.

    But that's what ended up happening. The original topic was nerfed, when the problem was simply the section it was in, not its content. And another topic was created that no one is interested in and no one asked for (otherwise we would have just created it ourselves).


    Today, we see one of the only popular and active topics on the forum, which almost everyone visits at some point, destroyed by these ill-considered decisions.

    Share whatever you have going on in-game/discussion here.

    The Xunlai Market for items/drops still exists here: How did Guild Wars treat you today? Items/Drops ONLY

    Just don't post the same content in multiple places. Thanks.

    Sorry to say, but I won't be posting in this newly created thread. I'm not looking for a fight, but that wasn't the point of separating things.


    The topic: “How did Guild Wars treat you today?” could be used both for drops in general and for what we saw or experienced in the game. Most of the contributors who had already posted once received a notification when a new message was published. That's important. No one will come here. There's no history either. In short, this doesn't solve anything, but divides and discards people who don't post drops in a dead-end topic.


    I'm willing to discuss this further or find another way of doing things, but this isn't the right one. I also understand that we shouldn't discuss the same topic in several places. But that's not the case 99% of the time for the topic: How did Guild Wars treat you today? Updates? Reforged is an exception. Other than that, I don't see where the duplicates are (?)

    But I insist that the mistake in all this was made when you updated the topic last November, when there was no need to do so. Moving it somewhere other than the Xunlai section would have cleared up any confusion. Rather than forcing people to only post game drops. Insisting on this approach and not acknowledging this mistake will lead us to a dead end.


    In short, this is a useless topic that solves nothing, sorry. If there's anything else I can do, please don't hesitate to let me know.

    Drop of a few Gladiator's Z Strongboxes.. and 25 consecutive wins after /cogite 10-12 years (?) It's nice to see the RA alive again.

    Again today, but I didn't take any screenshots. I was the drunk monk, no reflexes, but congratulations to the group members for their 25 consecutive victories! Burp!

    I love use this:

    Even with new content, it’s very hard attracting new players to very old games, unless it’s a full expansion. It mostly just brings back old players rather than fresh blood.

    It's still very low in terms of new players with Reforged, that's obvious. And expecting a large number of new players is unrealistic. That's why we shouldn't expect a new expansion or anything like that.

    These discussions about the future of GW have been going on for years, and the outcome is always the same: there are those who dream and those who don't.


    Not trying to be an ass, and would genuinely like your thoughts because I disagree. How would new content drive in new players? It’s a 20 year old game. If they aren’t playing now when there is already tons of content, what would more content add at this point for a new player?

    Promoting additional content and word of mouth could attract new players. The proof is in Reforged: there was no real new content, but the promotion was enough to bring in both old and new players.

    For veterans, if there is new playable content, they will “blow through it” in a few days at most, then return to our good old favorite habits.

    An improvement to existing content, such as a trading post, the last missing boss in an elite zone (FoW), missing attributes and weapons (weapon family), etc., would be more appropriate and realistic.

    I'm happy to see more players active in the game again since the release of Reforged. But that's also what surprises me the most. Reforged hasn't really changed anything in GW1; there have been more significant updates in recent years than Reforged. So players could have come back years ago.

    We need to give it more time for this wave to become concrete and solid. We are still in a fragile period, with an old, dusty game. And its economic system, coding possibilities and the very small team still working on the game will not allow for a GW 1.5. Just be happy that the servers are still open.

    Hell I would pay a subscription charge for some improvements.

    I'd rather die or see the server shut down permanently than see GW1 switch to a subscription model!

    Trump approves this (or not?)

    - Every day since you stopped playing, bots and players have accumulated a lot of wealth (bots much more so). 1 ecto therefore no longer has the same value it did 12 years ago or more.

    - There is no auction house, no fixed price with low variations. Even if there are indicators (Kamadan trade chat, Legacy forum), they are not necessarily reliable. But everyone follows the trend, as long as prices rise. So they all increase constantly, because there is no economic regulator.

    - Ectos and armbraces, whether they devalue or increase in value, are not regulated over time by sellers. If ectos/armbraces fall, the price of an item X or Y will increase in relation to the number of ectos/armbraces. But once the price of ectos/armbraces rises again, they will not lower this value again in relation to the number of ectos/armbraces. Leverage effect.

    It makes no sense. He's buy rubies and sapphires for around 4k and ectos for 100g now. In fact, if you test with different materials, it changes all the time. :D

    GW has a serious problem...

    Are you requesting a quote? Because he shows one item price, but if i get a quote, its always the plain merch minimum for that item

    The last price paid was high and he's offering you a ridiculously low price, after requesting quote. But sometimes the price, as shown in my screenshot above, is higher (a few seconds?) The game is broken.


    Edit: All the scrolls were back a few minutes ago, but now they're gone again... Check this picture with time for crafting Material ->

    id guess the ecto supply in the economy is simply too high compared to other items

    That's it, no more ectos for sale now, and even if they come back like certain materials/runes, they sell out very quickly.

    Try selling to them... it's even worse.

    It's like the black dye bug. Traders offer base merch price for things.

    didn't the dev(s) say after the somewhat recent 'restock' of black dyes at the trader, that if such a situation occurs again they'd look into fixing it properly?

    Implied that they had deliberately not done properly it the first time lol. And that tomorrow they'll pull a rabbit out of the hat. I'll believe it when I see it!


    He is an exception with the ecto. It seems as though this is done deliberately by those who abuse the system (?)

    1. You have enough content and achievements to do that. You can choose your own way of playing depending on how much time you want to devote to it, unlike MMOs, which are paid (subscription) and often hide a time-consuming acquisition system in order to get you to pay a subscription for a long period of time. Guild Wars is much more accessible and free than a paid MMO. Leveling is simple, there are no supreme, very expensive weapons that are more powerful than others, etc.

    2. You can't fly, jump, or swim. Guild Wars 2 has this advantage, which Guild Wars 1 unfortunately does not. Nevertheless, the world remains beautiful and attractive. You have an exploration title, but it boils down to walking and discovering the map, not an exploit to discover a specific location, as in Guild Wars 2.

    3. Play in the US zone. To find players, the capital of Nighfall, Kamadan, is the main place to trade. There is also the Great Temple of Balthazar (for PvP) and Embark Beach, which can be an interesting gateway. These last two also have NPCs for Zaishen quests (daily reward quests).

    4. I'll redirect you to the official wiki -> Hall of Monuments The wiki is a database that I strongly recommend you keep handy if you have questions outside of Legacy and Reddit. The wiki is very comprehensive. If you are looking for builds (meta), there is another site here -> https://gwpvx.fandom.com/wiki/PvX_wiki


    Don't forget to find a guild and, if necessary, stay with it or find another one (If you have played Guild Wars 2, perhaps a guild that plays both games.). The goal is for you to feel comfortable with the people in it. It's with your guild/alliance, that you can plan and organize your outings in the game. Without them, it's very random.

    I love posts on the web showing GW1 on portable consoles. No, actually, I find it pathetic. How can anyone be satisfied with such a small screen? I'd lose my temper after a minute.


    I know I complain nonstop, kisses :*

    <<J'ai un PC qui s'appel buldozer, je commande à manger uniquement sur le web, je m'assieds sur une chaise qui fait aussi WC, je suis connecté 24/24 et je suis [un gros con!] (pour ceux qui ont la réf, les autres dsl)>>

    Am I the only one who thinks a simple update notification would have been enough?

    I mean, the permanent discounts in the store, um, I mean, the fairer prices, are greatly appreciated. But the rest could easily go unnoticed (except for what's going on with Steam users), without all the hype surrounding a new GW 1.5 (?)

    I think they should review their communication at Anet.


    Note: Yes, I'm a dirty brat, but I fully accept that, no worries :*

    a significant drop in prices in the GW store -> https://store.guildwars.com/en-us$

    Quote

    Players who previously owned only one or two campaigns or the PvP Pack were automatically upgraded to all three chapters at no additional cost.

    The Eye of the North expansion and Bonus Mission Pack are now branded as DLC and available separately, requiring the base game purchase. Additional enhancements including hero packs, skill packs, and costumes have permanently reduced prices.

    Let's imagine someone who only wants to buy Prophecies, for example to play Ironman or other theme. In short, exclusively with a campaign. Impossible in “Reforged” mode (?) forced to pay more for the trilogy (?) In some situations, it's not a saving..

    They said reforged will be 20$ so I'm assuming EotN will be 10$ or 15$ at most and the mission bonus pack at 5$ perhaps

    Whatever the price, it's the offer that doesn't make sense.

    Why release an anniversary version with all the content offered by GW1 and another version that does not include EOTN and the bonus mission pack, but does include a UI update, support for a type of joystick, and pixel level adaptation, in the store at the time of the anniversary and also in the midst of the development of the Reforged version, While the anniversary version does not have it?

    Damn, am I talking nonsense, or is that what I understood they were going to release? And in six months, it's Reforged 2, with added content, for those who already have the game, but not for the others?

    I really hope that Reforged brings more to the table than Graphics overhaul and controller support.

    Really looking forward for at least a list of QoL improvements to the game. Otherwise, the whole hype around it will die as quickly as it arrived.

    I want selectable title/character selection screens from all campaigns, dyable blindfold and armor and weapon clipping issues fixed


    Reforged, unlike the 20th anniversary content, which once announced, emphasized that there would still be surprises at the time of its release, will have nothing more than what has been announced so far. So I think that, apart from a few pixels, it will be quickly forgotten.

    Now, whatever the outcome, I don't understand why, after releasing the GW version (Masterpiece 20th), they are releasing a Reforged version that is less complete (without EOTN and bonus missions). And above all, why accompany this Reforged announcement with marketing, when the content and changes in recent years have simply been updates, with at best an official message on Reddit (?)

    Not only is this confusing, with people thinking it's a “remastered” version when it's not. And even more so when purchasing an account (what will be the point of the 20th anniversary masterpiece version once Reforged is released?).

    So, apart from Deck Steam users and those with a 4K or higher resolution screen, is this false hope because there was marketing behind it? Strange choice on their part.

    I would like to come for a run one time to see the route and hopefully do it in the future. does anyone have time? I love the ghostly staves, and its a much better feeling if I worked hard for it. I was thinking of just vqing this place over and over lol

    Hi,

    If you speak French, I could show you, otherwise it might be difficult to explain live.


    As for this chestrun, I don't think anyone else is doing it exactly the same way and as optimally as I am today. This tutorial needs an update, it's no longer relevant.

    I was planning to update it during the Christmas holidays (along with creating a tutorial for Zehtuka items and items contained in the race, such as Desolation Maul, etc. As well as adding pictures and tables to my Low LvL tutorial). These will likely be my last contributions in terms of tutorials on this forum.


    Overall:

    - Today, I place my heroes at the beginning and then recall them when I'm at the first respawn point. This saves me a lot of damage.

    - I always eat a small birthday cake, so that I have a specific creno that saves me time and (rarely) causes time constraints and anti-cast or stance counterattacks.

    - I don't open chests that can't drop the weapons I want in this chest run (Eternal, Ghostly).

    - I use a specific route that saves me time and avoids wasting time locating the targeted chests, if they are replaced by other chests in uninteresting locations. And I resign according to the layout of the chests, knowing that if chest X or Y appears, the spot next to it won't spawn a chest. Gain of time.


    With my modifications, compared to the current tutorial, I have reduced the time to a maximum of 2 minutes for 0-3(/4) chests.
