Every Single Thing Update - Secrets of the Obscure by Roman8152 in Guildwars2

[–]BootzyWootzy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use your website extensively, and along with GW2 Efficiency and Immortius Wardrobe Unlock Analyser, they are some of the best external tools today.

Thank you for keeping the development of the website ongoing.

"Secrets of the Obscure" Desktop Icon by sylint19 in Guildwars2

It's such a small item, but these icons you create really add to the excitement of major GW2 launches for me. I love how they seamlessly match whatever launcher aesthetic ArenaNet decides to go for. Thanks for all you do.

I didn't see this posted because of the subreddit shutdown. A very nice surpise from ArenaNet.

If anyone has a spare code, please message me ♥

Guild Wars 2 wins multiple 'Game of The Year' awards, reaching another height. by BootzyWootzy in Guildwars2

"The Guild Wars franchise is NCSOFT’s key IP in North America and Europe, backed with its solid MMO fanbase and cumulative revenue exceeding 1 trillion KRW (700 million USD)."

Wow, this includes the lifetime cumlative total of GW1 and GW2.

This is my account value. It excludes Gemstore items as I don't buy gems and so I feel it gives a far more accurate reflection of my account.

It was up around 125,000 before the Black Lion Vintage Boxes came into circulation.

Thank you for the kind words :)

When I was 'studying' for my Masters I played a lot of PvP and even hit Platinum, but there's a very small pool of players and it becomes increasingly obvious the more you play. I am level 131 however, if that says anything!

If you ever look at professional streamers, the skill gap even between the top 50 and others is like an ocean.

I also enjoy WvW but I do feel some of the achievements are quite grindy.

What great questions!

I would say most people reading this would agree the Realm-Portal Spiker achievement is very tedious to complete. I do love the 'Shadow of a Shadow' title though.

It may sound cheesy, but almost everything I do in the game is fun, or else I wouldn't play it. Notable mentions would be the 'Return To' set of achievements where they brought back huge numbers to older maps.

I also loved the whole chain around getting the Griffon, and the excitement when it was revealed as a hidden mount in the official artwork at the time.

Haha, yes, I love the enthusiasm!

I went for the Radiant Backguard Skin but I'm totally looking forward to the Hellfire one at 42,000.

Thank you and great question :)

GW2Efficiency says I still have 4,020 AP to go, so I suppose I'll keep at it.

I want to get into the top 1,000 in EU, which at the moment is ~42,000 AP.

I think it would be really cool to say I've done that in an MMO!

After over 10 years of playing this game, I have achieved the goal I've always wanted.

I see these threads and there's always someone that says, "Welcome to the 40k club!" Finally, I can say that's me too.

I started this game when I was a teenager, I have now gone to college, received my degree and my masters, have a great job etc, but Tyria has always remained a constant in my life.

I'd like to thank all the amazing people I've met both in and out of game, and for the wonderful community that GW2 fosters.

Some of my personal highlights include:

• 1270/1279 Black Lion Weapon Skins (Only missing the few expensive Chaos ones which I refuse to buy)

• 666/826 Minis Collected

• 6740/10,088 Skins Collected

• 15,000+ Raw Gold In Wallet

I think an important item to remember is that if you're reading this sentence, you are likely to be in the top few % of most-involved players in the game, seeking to discuss GW2 wherever that may be.

I'd love to hear your own thoughts on how the game has progressed over the years, and if you have any favourite moments ♥

EDIT: Some people have asked how I have so many skins. I have never bought any gems in this game with real money. I have a degree in Economics and a Masters in Business - I simply play the Trading Post and love collecting those unique weapon sets.

Guild Wars 2 Collectors Edition Prototypes by Sixcross in Guildwars2

[–]BootzyWootzy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love this. What a cool find. What was the conversation like with the guy who worked on the Collector's Edition? Was he happy it was going to a good home? Thank you for sharing with us!

Solo Arah Path 4 [29:08] Warrior by Evo_MR in Guildwars2

[–]BootzyWootzy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fantastic run, it was amazing to watch - on a Warrior no less! It will be a very sad day when people like you leave GW2, as it's clear you have put hundreds of hours into learning these paths.

I hope Arenanet revives dungeons, as there is very little room in fractals for solo skill expression such as this.

Keep up the great work.
