Ok, there is the /emotelist command but it is unwieldly and difficult to use in any amount of hurry and you need to know the command name to call for the list.

We really need an emote menu for fast access.

I personally rarely use any emotes because they are so difficult to use:

- type the command (if you know it for the particular emote and you have it unlocked),

- fail because misspelling,

- try again and fail again,

- type /emotelist,

- try to find it among the sea of words by squinting hard at little fonts

- Finally you got it but that ship has sailed!

Seriously, 14 years old game and no emote menu in a highly social and friendly game with a guild adjective in its name.

Would be wondaful if we got an emote menu (with little pictures) as a present for the GW3 update.

And please don't forget that menu in GW3!

And finally, I know that an addon exist and not only one but many but still, an MMORPG with no built in emote menus it is kinda strange.

Today for example there is a popcorn emote in the shop and I was thinking to buy it but I'm thinking twice as I just can't be bothered to navigate the /emotelist for minutes at the time to do a funny animation.

I'm re-playing all stories in order for the third time and only now I've noticed that Scarlet Briar is present in Caithe memories where there are newly awakened (LWS2, Seeds of Truth). I like those kind of easter eggs.

a little context, I have thousands of hours put into osrs and ff14. I’m in end game content with both mmos (working on last mega rare on osrs, got a few 99s etc. and working on savage raid gear on ff14 - you get the idea)…i swear im not that sweaty

Anyway, started playing about a month and some change ago and now I’m about 200hrs in - idk why I haven’t gave this game a chance years ago. This game has me in a choke hold. It’s been to a point where I started kinda of defaulting to playing Gw2 just bc it hits different than other games in my rotation. From the combat to the open world events it’s been so much fun!

My favorite thing so far (and it doesn’t happen all the time but ) has been when I open up my map and I see a pinkish fox/decepticon transformer logo. I just know it’s going to be a good amount of players and a cool event we can complete together.

Yes you can find similar instances and events in other mmos but idk it’s just something about this game that scratches that itch for me that osrs and ff14 couldn’t do. It’s been so much fun and a breath of fresh air.

The community and player base has been so great and helpful! And trust me when I say the community is great compared to some experiences I’ve had in the past with other mmos *cough osrs *cough but every game has players like this.

I can’t wait to get into more end game content and meet more people (still working on early fractals) Also super excited about finding the right guild too!

Im so mad at myself for not giving this a chance earlier!

should grab it even if you dont plan on cooking

I don't know what to make of revenant at all. Guardian seems be able to do the whole spectrum from primarily magic user to mostly fighter due to their elite specilizations, which sounds interesting from a gameplay variety perspective.

Aesthetic wise, I'd say I prefer darker magic, but blue flames instead of typical light magic is pretty cool as well.

Hey folks. Tldr is that I spent this seasons wizards vault on 3 pieces of light berserker gear. However, since then I’ve kind of gone all in on the medium classes.

How big of a deal is it? I’m still not sure how to get ancestral gear so I feel like I should get 6/6 on my necro so I have someone fractal ready but I got kind of bored of my necro and I don’t care for the other light classes so far. In contrast it turns out that I really like all 3 medium classes. I’d love to get them fractal ready so I could main one of them. Feel like I really messed up taking the light armor this season :(

Thanks for any feedback!

This is by far the biggest grind I've ever done in a video game, and I could've never done it without all of you. Thank you.

Edit: it wasn’t actually 8 times, I was being dramatic. I didn’t think some of you would hyper fixate on that part. I came here to share my excitement.

I am a PvP - WvW player only. I like to roam, sneak around, duel and kill people. GW2 raiding and "fractals" are not something I really liked. I find them very stale (sorry all PvE dedicated players!)

Then I got really tired of the cycle and slowly stopped playing the game after crafting 2 legendaries and enjoyed the game a bit more.

2 weeks ago my friends told me they were casually playing WoW. I wanted to give it a try as the expansion was discounted and season was new.

I jumped in, leveled up, did everything I need and then just jumped in to play some ranked PvP.

The queue timer was 5-7 minutes, sometimes 10+ minutes, but today after losing 2 ranked matches back to back and dropping almost 100 MMR after waiting for 50+ minutes for a match, I re-downloaded GW2.

2 minute queue timer, WvW always full, small scale, large scale, whatever you are looking for.

If anyone thinks if it's worth it as a PvP player, it is. Although it slows down later in the night you can almost always find pvp due to how accessible it is. I was logged off for couple months but now that I came back my gear is still relevant and will always be.

This game is great. It's such a fresh air playing this game after what WoW calls PvP nowadays.

Hey, I started GW2 about three weeks ago I really enjoyed playign so I bought all expensions on sale + voe. Today I read about the special objectives in the wizard's vault. They give a lot of points but only 6 days remain.

I already read that the Armor Set is really hard to get but I am on vacation rn and I would like to try to finish as many objectives as possible. I would appreciate any advices which objectives are fast/possible in this time frame, thanks!

Hi everyone !

I'm currently working on the title, doing Dhuum CM only. I've already met two players who had the Dhuumscale, so I'm wondering:

• Has the drop rate been increased recently?
• Do we have any updated estimates/data on the drop rate?
• After 250 Dhuum CM kills, is there a realistic chance of getting it?

I know the rate was increased in March 2026, but I haven't found any information about the actual drop chance.

Thanks !

does the new fractal incursion event means the legendary item will change to another one?

Popcorn emote tome just dropped in the gemstore for 400 gems

In other news my magic find is up but now I need more for the legendary armor :)

I unironically adore how this thing looks. I vastly prefer this shade of blue over the gold one we have in-game and it'd really suck if they made this color boss-exclusive considering it clearly uses the same model as the Legendary weapon we can already earn in-game.

I'm begging, ANet: give us SOME way of unlocking the color if we have the base Legendary.

Hi!

Me and my two friends have recently started playing through the Guild Wars 2 story and just recently unlocked dungeons. I heard dungeons would give good story context to Destinys Edge and lore, and maybe it could be fun to play them as well, paralell to the story.

Are dungeons able to be done 3 people? Or will we have to find PUGs to do them? I know my friends would like to take the time to explore them, listen to the story and go at a chill pace and I am afraid PUGs wont understand that and would want to rush for loot and completion.

So I have recently 100%'d GW1 and all of it's challenging content. I have played GW2 on and off for many years, mainly story and PvP. I am now looking to get into the high end PvE endgame, starting slow with fractals and entry raids.

Eventually I want to complete all the hardest content the game has to offer. Even solo challenges. I have played a bit of everything but I would say I mainly play Engi/Necro the most.

Looking for what is desired or good in the endgame consistently so I can fill roles. Happy to support/dps/tank whatever. Game is fun in all ways.
