Trying to recreate my weird mesmer from when I played before.



I can't figure out what that face paint thing is. Any ideas? I don't think it's in the Makeover Kit.

Gemstore shop item, might be out of commission right now, dunno. They now even just change regular armor that's up there per season to make things special or some bullshit.

This is the stupidest poo poo I've ever seen, which is perfectly inline for this expansion so probably real.

You can use it once on one scepter, and it will unlock the skin for you to use on any number of sceptres for the Low Low Price of 1 transmutation charge (only 150 gems for 3 in the Black Lion Store!)

edit: that's per subsequent sceptre, not every sceptre forever.

And you can buy those scepter skins very cheap on the trading post, so don't spend a transmute on them if you want to use them for another skin. Just buy another of those consumable skins.

I hope that includes deleting specific items rather than plopping your green circle on or near them and hoping for the best

Nah that still sucks poo poo, but at least the thing you are destroying to delete the small thing thats hosed up is much easier to build back.

Also sometimes when you place things there is a dumb green aoe circle blocking what it would look like, but I'm sure they will patch that away eventually. hopefully.

Some upcoming changes for wvw

anet posted:

Objectives upgrades will no longer be automatic based on time. They will upgrade based on dolyaks that reach them. Smaller groups can now prevent an objective from upgrading by preventing dolyaks from reaching that objective.

Supply cost for all catapults are being reduced by ten supply. The layout of the Desert Borderlands map has increased the number of catapults required to take some objectives. We agree with your feedback that also increasing the cost of catapults pushed the balance too far towards defense so we are tuning that more towards offense.

Points per kill will be turned on and kept on. This is to more directly recognize the contribution that fighting other players adds to the success of the world.

The number of players who can rally off a single kill has been reduced from five to one.

Players will also no longer be able to revive defeated players while in combat. You still will be able to revive downed players while in combat. Both of these changes are designed to help fights resolve and to give smaller, more skilled groups a better chance against larger groups.

Oof, the number of things you can have in your guild hall is really not that much. I hope they eventually up it because really we don't have very many areas decorated and 0 jumping puzzles this time around and still hit it. Someone did the math and we have like 800 things placed right now, wiki says limit should be 2000. Tivvvaaaac

It's boring as poo poo and takes for loving ever. The last part looks kinda nice I guess but that's kinda all there is. I've done it 3 times and pretty sure I'll never do it again now that basic guild hall objects don't need the ore from it. Thank loving god.

Is there really that much potential to break stuff? Most of the maps are pretty flat overall, aren't they?

I can already break out of about 90 percent of the maps without gliding, so this will probably just make it a bit easier unless they added some invisible walls here and there but it sounds like they didn't.

Also maps are prettier when you break out of them.
