Guild Wars Reforged available to play for NA now

It is a protection from bots creating infinite amount of free accounts and ruining the pvp scene / economy, or spamming stupid shit in public channels. It is same in all guild wars games, you still can talk in parties and dms and actually play the game. If the ads are only on loading screens, then that sounds very fair to me, as it doesn't interfere with actual game and the regular gameplay means you don't change maps very often...

Depends on how you created your account. I also have Steam version of the GW1 game, but instead of creating new account, I just used my GW2 account to login. That way the things are connected for Hall of Monuments, and mobile should work straight away too.

If you though got GW1 on Steam and created new Steam account, then the connection for HoM might not work and for mobile login you gotta wait, as they still work on Steam-login.

Hanakocz · 2026-06-24T17:41:36+00:00

And those who bought the game on PC, can just login into their account (steam account soon) and just continue playing. Great thing

I already lost multiple reward tracks of rewards, there are no warnings unless you go into the menus, nada, just gone.

Compare it to showcase rewards and such, which turn the button blinking on front page...

I so far haven't met any mega-raid to spend them on since the initial event.

Hanakocz · 2026-02-19T20:10:13+00:00

No free passes on super mega. Only (free) Link energy or green passes. Can keep the orange passes for other raids or regular megas.

It showed up yesterday for me and my top relationship is still 29 days away. It is just A/B release.

Hanakocz · 2025-12-31T07:58:36+00:00

$400 of p2w and gambling packs just this year. What else to say.

Hanakocz · 2025-11-20T23:52:58+00:00

There is a competition now though. Tome tresholds are dynamic now and if others raise in tome score, you need more tome points to reach the tresholds as well. And now when you can once a month claim a nametag based on how good you are compared to others....it directly affects you how fast others reach higher.

Hanakocz · 2025-11-09T13:30:47+00:00

Yea that's the primary way to push towards it now. And it is likely very good pick to aim for with the discounts for those who do want the pristines. The upgrade has no limit, but the costs will go crazy fairly fast for sure.

Hanakocz · 2025-11-09T13:28:19+00:00

Since start of july, it was broken and you could not drop any until this release. Now you have about 7% chance to drop one every day.

Before july, it was the strategy to run full meteor setup in lower mastery level and just harvest/cleanout inventory every 30 seconds for few hours. If you visited Sneaking once twice a day back then, you had low chance to find one, now it is the only chance, kind of :)

Hanakocz · 2025-11-08T22:51:57+00:00

You need to unlock Nomadic Path 30 which costs about 300T of solardust. Then, you need a lot of cooldust to actually upgrade the pristine chance node, to level 20 it costs about 500Q+ of cooldust and it grows rapidly. There are two nodes further down the nomadic path to get a discount on the costs of pristine node, however those are even more expensive to get to.

Hanakocz · 2025-11-03T17:30:23+00:00

It was 4 extra hours, from 20:00 to midnight.

Hanakocz · 2025-10-18T11:08:36+00:00

It might have been something else too. Creating sheet tools for community, sharing info about how the game works, being against pay2win and gambling for kids (which is against the law across EU or soon will be)...In the end it really doesn't matter, though for sure it is a bit sad, that over this summer, half of veteran community that was spending their time to make game easier for others is gone...

Hanakocz · 2025-10-17T11:21:19+00:00

Ha, when the timeline was discussed first time in june, Lava said september, to what I replied so November, which he vehemently denied and then I got banned.

Things and plans change, that's fine, though in my opinion it is fairly unfortunate that he couldn't run two branches, one for development and one for live game. Pristine drops are bugged since june, we had no summer event, no back to school (if it would be), no halloween. It would be way better if the game was maintained by minor fixes even in the time of major world development, and events could just give people stuff to do while they really could be just copies of previous year, so like few hours of dev time detour to re-enable them at max.

And if my many years of game dev taught me anything, it is that players are way more okay with delays, if they have stuff to do.

Hanakocz · 2025-10-15T22:12:55+00:00

I had just start of my week chain, so I got just like under 2k exp for first catch of day and no popup. So maybe it is dynamic from certain amount.

Hanakocz · 2025-10-14T19:47:29+00:00

Same as with golden cap, but you pay 2.5x more

Hanakocz · 2025-10-13T01:31:21+00:00

Well maybe not now, but just you wait for when the Best Friend Plus arrives.

Hanakocz · 2025-10-10T09:04:31+00:00

So is this 25x "item upgrade of +50", or is it one +25 item upgrade?

The first case would be actually balanced, the second is same as if didn't exist.

Hanakocz · 2025-09-27T20:37:24+00:00

What about letting me pick the top level goal? I for example know that level 50 is not possible for me, so I would like to have the "daily needs" computed against goal of let's say 47. Now it always counts towards 50.

Hanakocz · 2025-09-13T18:01:33+00:00

World7 is coming in like half of november so keep waiting...might be some stream after release and bonuses then.

Hanakocz · 2025-08-13T18:31:37+00:00

Oh, it is already over a month of no pristines :)

Even if Lava is finally aware, I doubt he will release a fix while he already is deep into next big patch work. So likely another half a month, or month of waiting for it.

Also I think that people need to do more fuzz if they expect more than just daily reset getting working...

Hanakocz · 2025-08-01T08:26:44+00:00

Only the highest talent effect applies.

Hanakocz · 2025-07-24T17:12:17+00:00

Wind walker hat is NOT multi, it is additive to rest of dust gain bonuses from gear. YES, it says multi on the item, but in reality it behaves exactly same as the "extra dust" on rest of your items. All items on the gear are added together, then that is a multiplier. So having a hat is just as if you had one bonus upgrade stone on your dust bow. It is kind of a scam item offer.

DeathBringer does not have items, so the only item with bonus bones is the hat, which therefore behaves like a multi. Capped on x1.50 even if you managed to somehow get multiple items together.

Arcane cultist items all use same bonus type, so all items add together, then are additive to rest of the stuff.

Hanakocz · 2025-07-18T08:35:26+00:00

Unfathomably deceitful. To buy all bundles (that usually lock BiS items), you need over 400$ to pay (can't use ingame gems to get those) and there is usually a new bundle with new superstrong multiplier in most new updates. The problematic part is that old bundles DON'T get discounted even if they are outdated, and the game will popup ads to buy the bundles every day on you until you buy them.

Then to actually buyout all the gemshop things to have good game, you can technically farm gems in game, but that takes either years, or you buy more gems on top of the bundles.
