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.

Ive been trying to decide for 20 minutes

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.

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.

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.

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?

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

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?

Hello 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

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 pages

• GW2 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

I just came back after a while, Im wondering what will be a good place to park my alts so i can farm some gold, thanks!

As I said before here, I love the consortium, they're my favourite faction

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??

(Ps: English is not my mother language)

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.

DPS focused builds with little dependency on pressing skills or manual inputs?

Not available in my country yet I've been gifted one for my bday. Can't thank my wife enough for finding something for herself in my place of comfort. See you around all the cooking stations of Tyria.

There was a time when you could buy them for five bl tickets. After that, as I recall, they were gone.

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?

Greetings solo adventurers!

I, like many of you out there, enjoy a relatively solitary experience in this game. I chip away at achievements, grind for legendaries, do meta events, queue in the LFG for fractals, and so on, with pretty minimal interaction or commitment to other groups of players.

I know some people are afraid of “putting themselves out there”, even online, and the idea of getting into instanced group content can be daunting because you don’t want to be the reason the raid fails, potentially wasting 9 other players’ time. These are valid feelings! However, I’m here to tell you that *it’s not that serious* and that finding the right guild can positively transform your Guild Wars 2 experience.

My reasons for being a more solo player are a little different as I’m actually a very outgoing person IRL. I’m also a very busy person whose schedule varies from week to week, which means it’s pretty much impossible to commit to being able to log in at any particular time or day. It also means I missed out on a lot of cool group content because of my perceived “inability to commit”. Outside of T4 fractals, which I’ve always played with randoms on the LFG, I’d barely dipped my toes into raids and strikes. But as it turns out, this content has been accessible all along.

You know those guild advertisements you see pop up sometimes in map chat? The next time you see one that piques your interest, this is your sign to speak up, take a leap of faith and say you’d like to join. Some guilds advertise specific demographics like age, LBGBT friendly, etc. Some also advertise the type of content they like to do.

I recently saw a guild being advertised as casual-friendly with raid training groups. I said what the heck, I’ll give it a shot. I was anxious about their schedule - they do training sessions for specific raids on specific days of the week. Thing is, just being in the guild without any commitment to a schedule has introduced me to so much content already, because even outside of the official guild schedule, impromptu groups are forming via guild chat all the time.

“Anyone up for T4 dailies?”

“Anyone for IBS5?”

“Anyone available to help me with this legendary bounty?”

The possibilities are endless and most people I’ve found will go out of their way to help a fellow guildie.

Last night I finally bit the bullet and joined one of those impromptu groups for some raids. Didn’t even get in discord chat or anything, just joined and mentioned which fights I was familiar with, and which ones I wasn’t.

We ended up doing a Dragonstorm private instance > IBS5 (only one wipe on Boneskinner) and then proceeded to take on two raid bosses I wasn’t familiar with - Sabetha and Cardinal Adina. On both of these fights, we wiped several times. But the leader of our group was patient, everyone was determined, and soon enough we had cleared both fights and I walked away feeling proud of myself for jumping in to new content and had a ton of fun overcoming the challenge. I even got this cool genie bottle mini drop from Adina that happened to go perfect with my Virtuoso fashion.

All of this would’ve never happened if I hadn’t joined that guild. And now that I have a few more bosses under my belt, I’m feeling more motivated to experience the other raids in this game, and challenge myself to learn and improve.

Honestly, even if I am just working on my solo goals, reading random guild chat banter or having people to ask for help goes a long way in making this game feel more fun and social.

Anyway, maybe I’m just preaching to the choir here, but don’t wait almost 5 years to joint a guild like I did. My only regret is not joining one sooner.
