Okay, that's clearer now. Thanks.

As for the pair with tonic a 25% chance into undead, that's not great.

Show us the mini, not trade window.

The icon looks exactly like the one from the first-anniversary mini. The transparency of the window. Is it a fake.

erase this*

I also notice that there are some WTB threads for single word names. (I wish I could close one of those threads by saying, I own that name; I'm not selling it, so you can close your thread).

1994 .. first time ..

Quote from Ishida

btw hes right on this, we did collective thousands of runs and didnt see any minipet. 2weeks just trolled us and shadowpatched the mini in yesterday. not 100% sure, but its very likely lol.

2weeks .. and after 2 weeks the mini drop ..

Yeap, resto + channel most wanted of this skin ^^'

Quote from Sasha

so yeah, just making a bet to get something actually rare or unique in this hyper-inflation economy.

An economy in GW? Without any regulation? (Auction House, fixed prices). Sorry, but for over a decade now, in a game where bots have literally run rampant, the economy only exists for those who believe in it or who can take opportunistic advantage of it.

The prize doesn't matter anymore; it's just a fad at best. There are no feats, no superstars, just opportunists.

Quote from Marcus Ferret

Plus, it would probably take another 2 years for them to get it right...🤣

Oh, have they hired any new staff recently? (How mean of me )

Quote from Dupljakus

I just kept info because of buyer, he has right for some exclusive. But anyways, you got your answer.

Exclusivity comes at a high price, considering how long it lasted Let's be honest, that exclusivity was on your side, not the buyer's.

All this for a mini that will be just as exclusive in a few days or weeks as having a mini panda, I find that really funny

and stupid too

In any case, seen on Kama us1

I don't think I've ever seen a Ghostly Staff drop from the Forsaken chest. But it's an Inspiration requirement. So, all requirements drop (17) or just the ones that drop from the Z chest (5, including Inspiration).

Update May 12, 2026

• Skill AI adjustments:
  • Preservation - No longer casts outside of combat area to preserve uptime during combat; prioritizes casting if an ally has low health; targets ally in range w/lowest health percentage.
  • Spirit Siphon - Only checks the values of a potential target spirit (the closest) when determining usefulness; won't cast if you have plenty of energy; won't cast unless there is going to be meaningful energy gain.
  • Soul Leech - Prioritizes targeting casters; prioritizes highest health; skips low health targets.
• Some tuning of item drop rates and difficulty in Tunnels of the Forsaken
• Additional client and server updates in advance of soft launch onto mobile

Regardless, there are only two ways to obtain it outside of the bug:

• Extremely rare; you can only get it by luck from a chest. But there were also no individual performances.
• Technical; credit to whoever figures it out, the rest will follow.

Quote from Neutral_CH

For example, even the Polar mini [was] shared on the first day of the update.

Yeah that's not true. It showed up on the last full day of the event. (Not sure about dhuum so removed that bit from your quote)

I'm sure about both, especially Dhumm, which we played in SC just a few hours after it appeared on Halloween 2008. One person in the group had the mini Dhumm and he wasn't the only one. Well, I'll admit, 2008 was nothing like the number of players in 2026.

But that doesn't change the current topic: what if the mini isn't bugged and doesn't end up in the chest... where is it? edit: where are they?

I have to say I’m all for it if it’s a puzzle or something that makes you use your brain. But I haven’t seen that in the Reforged content yet, let’s hope I’m wrong about that.

Quote from Speed Clear Ele

my guess is they drop from trash in the dungeon like peacekeeper and given most people speedrun the dungeon but never clean foes..

I bet on miniature ghostly warriors and ghostly riders because they both have multiple variants axe/sword or mesmer/ranger/war and we never clean them during fast clears.

You're forgetting that far more players have unlocked Althea than have completed the SC. Not to mention the number of different characters per account.

And after 2weeks confirmed that the only screenshot showing this mini was a fake because the item icon didn't match Althea's. Has anyone actually gotten it? For example, even the Polar mini and the Dhumm mini were shared on the first day of the update.

Strange no?

Quote from Speed Clear Ele

any news from the new miniatures?????

Apart from the fact that it's been three weeks and no one at 2weeks or Anet has noticed that it's not part of the content or is bugged?

... No, everything's fine, the mobile app is coming soon

Quote from Ascalon Arena

I think the "name event" we'll call it, was a proof of investment. Allowing anet to see what people put into the game and are willing to spend. Im sure it created alot of revenue and they sure as hell are looking at that as a ROI and how much they should invest. I dont think they considered it would create a really shady market, much like OSRS names.

I even went so far as to think that Silver Edge, back in 2021, was heading in that direction. See how people reacted to it before possibly planning a project that would be called: Reforged.

(But anyway, I’m totally off-topic here, sorry)

What I mean, specifically, is that 2weeks and Anet plan features through a contract with deadlines. Right now, 2weeks isn’t capable of fixing certain bugs. (In fact, in one of the latest updates, a simple symbol for the dungeon post was supposed to appear on the map but didn’t even show up—that’s how incompetent they are.)

So, isn’t the fact that they’re unlocking single-word names and removing discounts during the anniversary period an admission of failure, just to pad the coffers? If 2weeks were more competent, would single-word names be available today? Were they planned as part of the content to be released under the contract and schedule?

You’re going to tell me that we need to give them more time, that it’s an alpha, and so on. But that’s exactly the problem—I think they’re already behind schedule. These issues weren’t anticipated, and (time will tell) all the Reforged content might be buggy. In short, they won’t be able to keep up with the schedule. And that the whole single-word-name thing will be just the first in a long list of features added solely to make up for their failures.

With or without Legacy, it's too late. Players have seen how high the prices can get. Everyone knows it. That won’t stop those who want to from trying to pay a high price for a name. And honestly, when you’re willing to put up xxx or xxxx armbraces for a single-word name, it means you have a lot more in reserve. It doesn’t matter if the trade doesn’t go through. It’s a drop in the bucket.

To me, this also marks the end of a cycle. There will be a “before” and an “after” 2weeks/reforged. Just as there was a ‘before’ and an “after” when GW2 was released (mass exodus from GW1). In short, it’s going from bad to worse. I’ve been saying for years that Anet shouldn’t mess with the game’s code anymore, or else they’d end up creating problems. That’s so true today.

Quote from PredatorNoa

I can't login into GW1, I always get Code 249 wtf. I already re-start my Router etc..

Same here so might be everyone's problem

Try going to your Anet account, clicking the “Security” tab, and removing the authorized IP addresses—except for the one currently in use. Or remove all IP addresses, depending on the situation.

Edit: This isn't the same issue I had a little while ago; this time, the Anet website isn't responding at all.

Update May 8, 2026

• Inside Tunnels of the Forgotten:
  • Moved use of enemy elite skills to hard mode only
  • Adjusted skills for Fractured Spirit

No, still not.

So if you can't sell to the merchant a hammer dropped in the dungeon, try double-clicking on it ...

Or the drop rate is too low.

Quote from Neutral_CH

I'm running the dungeon with a character who hasn't completed any quests related to Althea or the new update. So far, I haven't noticed any difference in the chest.

still bad insc drops and no mini pets?

Yeap, sometime cracked horn, but not good drop, no mini. And in general, there are a lot of hammers (?)

Quote from yami the seeker

Do we have data to compare whether the drop pool is the same before and after the quest chain? :p:p

Pssst! I've got an Eternal Bow Longbow... (Alright, I'm out -> [. ] )

Is that a pvp item? Never seen that red text

/bonus -> Darksteel Longbow -> Tolkano -> Exotic weapons / Eternal Bow & costum with +30 hp

Just for pull in pve and respect skins eternal/ghostly family. Weapons /bonus are the exception at Tolkano.

Quote from Motoko

Thanks for your in depth research on this topic.

I do want to add that I have found the below to not be accurate:

• You must select a different starting campaign than the one of the deleted character.

All of my characters and transactions have been NF Warriors. No issues with names releasing.

You're right. I must have gotten confused. Maybe at that point, I hadn't yet recreated the character after the 30-minute wait that follows deleting the character with the name I wanted to transfer.

I've edited the first post accordingly.

I'm including a link to it here; it might help some players better coordinate character name transfers (for me, for free ):

Post

Transfer a character name in 30 minutes by having free character slots on your account (or not)

Hello,

The information on the wiki is unclear:

[…]



Then I checked Reddit and GW Legacy. But even there, the information varies. 30 minutes? 1 hour? 2 hours? Some people are adamant it’s 1 hour (like they’re name trading pros). I ran some tests until I consistently got the same result after 30 minutes. This was with free character slots on the account (and not with all slots filled, as noted on the wiki and forums).



First, I followed the standard procedure. Accounts 1 and 2:

• Account 1 has the name I
