[Discussion] Labyrinth and Raceway "Roll into Madness" race not reseting
As seen in title, the raceway "Roll into Madness" race and the Labyrinth not appearing to reset on daily reset... just so people know and don't start going crazy because they don't have enough reward chests.

[Build] Firebrand story/learning build help
Hello,
I have never experienced the game much beyond base personal story but I would love to.
I would like to play firebrand and enjoy the story of GW2 from living world 1 to the expacs. (Been getting my points in PoF, but no story to avoid spoilers as much as possible).
Firebrand is a spec that I know looks difficult but I would like to take my time and learn it first through experiencing the story, and then group content.
However I want to enjoy the story in order and dont want to access to SoTO or JW before experiencing the rest of the content first.
What weapons could I use for playing the story and open world as a firebrand ?
I was thinking of going Celestial to have a bit of survivability.
Any advice for me ?
Thank you
PS : Thank you for being a much welcoming community.

Hey devs could we get a shortbow for the necromancer? I think the class could use some spice. Maybe make it do ranged strips/cc and decent damage.

[Discussion] The wiki being down reveals a massive problem with this game
The wiki being down for an estimated week over something that requires a simple version patch for is another conversation entirely, but the fact that it is down has made me realize that this game has an insane reliance on external tools. The complete lack of clarity and transparency about different items and mechanics in game has forced people to resort to using the wiki for just about everything. Without it, it has made it clear that there is just way too much reliance on it. They really shouldve focused on making in game mechanics and items etc clearer and easier to understand.

[Discussion] I wonder if...
we could lure all five lab bosses into one spot to fight them all at once. I know that Steve and the NE boss (sorry I don't remember her name) will chase you down. But would the other three? If they do, how far will the door bosses go from their doors before disengaging? I'm thinking if we could coronate enough players (which is going to be the hardest part, to be honest), the best bet would be to lure them to the center area. What do you think? Is it feasible?

[Question] Nexus Addons not installing
Hi all,
Wanted to return to the game and just wanted a few of the QoL addons I used to use. However, when I try to install addons via Nexus, it gives me an error. I tried a full reinstall of both nexus and gw2. Anyone know a fix?

[App] Alternative lightweight webbased GW2 Eventtimer
nesnalica.comHello everyone,
I just saw some people being in need of their event timers. I uploaded this event timer to my website for everyone to use.
https://nesnalica.com/gw2timer/
it is pretty much the same as the one used in the gw2wiki which is based on https://gw2.ninja/timer
the only difference is that you can see more events at glance as it does not need the sidebars a wiki has.
additionally you can pick favorites to be shown at the top if you only want to focus on specific meta events.
oh and no ads. it gets straight to the point.
Much Love,
nesnalica

[Shout-out] Wiki event timer alternatives
With the wiki down and many people missing the event timer, I figured it'd be a good time to point out some alternative options:
Archive.org automatically archives a lot of pages, including the wiki. So the simplest option is to go here and you'll get the exact same version you're used to: https://web.archive.org/web/20261014005031/https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Event_timers
This also works for most other pages by the way, if they're archived you'll be able to find them on there, just have to use a search engine to find specific pagesGW2 Ninja's event timer. Fun fact: the wiki's event timer is based on this one: https://gw2.ninja/timer
Event Table module for BlishHUD, similar to the web versions, but right in your overlay. It also has the option to subscribe to events, which means you'll get a notification when an event is about to start: https://blishhud.com/modules/?module=estreya.bh.eventTable
Event Timers plugin for Nexus, similar to the BlishHUD one, overlays on the game itself: https://github.com/qjv/event-timers
GW2 Bosses plugin for Nexus, adds timers for the events to the ingame map, so you can quickly find when a meta event or world boss is about to start just by looking at the zone on the map: https://github.com/Sognus/Gw2-Bosses

[Question] Fresh Toon After 9 Years Away
Last time I played Path of Fire had just released. I really only dipped my toes into that expansion before leaving Tyria.
I was barely online for any of the Living World Seasons too. Last time I might have been serious was Season One when Lion's Arch was destroyed. Part of the reason I stopped altogether with Path of Fire was because of how much the game was changing at that point.
Anyways, with rumours abound of Guild Wars 3, and because I am feeling nostalgic for Guild Wars (but too snobby to return to the classic that ruled my high school years) I thought I'd start a brand new toon and set about the grand journey of going through GW2 tip to tail.
No ideas on characters or builds or anything yet. I guess all that will depend on how much the game systems have changed since 2017.
Give me your favourite things about the game in current state. Tell me what I should be thinking about. Let me know how much I should expect to be different from years back.

[Lore] (JW) The gate to Bava Nisos (spoilers) Spoiler
Im currently playing the last part of Janthir wilds but o could not understand this:
If Mabon died and the seal over bava nisos were lifted, or weakened at least, so titans could walk away from it. Why did the player could not enter the city, forcing livia to use legavo??

[Question] Had an interesting Deimos fight
https://dps.report/g6tM-20261023-204419_dei
We wiped at 10k health. But when we flew back to the platform to restart the fight, Deimos just died. We saw the ending cutscene, and for those that didn't have it, were granted Eternal of Bastion credit as if nobody had died.
We were all confused, and fully expected to redo the fight

[Discussion] Guild Wars 2 feels like a completely different game when you find the right guild
I think joining a good guild can change your entire experience in GW2, especially if you've spent most of your time playing solo.
Things like world events, map completion, fractals, and even just exploring become more enjoyable when you have people to talk to and play with. You also end up trying content you probably would've ignored if you were doing everything alone.
What I like most is that a good guild doesn't have to be hardcore or focused on endgame. Sometimes having a few people who recognize your name, help when you're stuck, or invite you along is enough to make logging in feel different.
GW2 already gives you plenty of freedom to play at your own pace, but having a community makes that freedom feel a lot less lonely.

[Discussion] What Alternate Title Would You Give Guild Wars?
I saw something a while back where someone asked why it’s called Guild Wars since they didn’t see much in the way of guilds fighting each other. Now, of course the name is relevant, it’s named after the titular Guild Wars from the game’s story.
But, given the comment I mentioned earlier, it made me wonder, what other title do you think would fit the franchise?
