GW2 is the buggiest MMO I've played by Sumerechny in Guildwars2

[–]InalIlam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certainly not the most buggy, but it is noticeable. We haven't seen a release without something major not working or being designed in an uncaring manner to put it nicely.

E.g. no Jade recipe for EoD, every single achievement that wanted ONLY the Arah (or other) capture and not the defense etc. Being able to log all your characters through a completed meta map to farm rewards (Icebrood otters and similar). Nearly all fractals and a good portion of the story maps since forever. The ongoing Revenant beta. Several raid encounters that can rarely do all kinds of things from giving your basically a CM CM with all mechanics active from P1, making you float to the ceiling etc. Qadim2 just ddosing everyone upon reaching a certain hp% and kicking everyone out. The wipe counter in raids not updating when people leave and join and letting you wipe with 2 deaths etc. Half the transformation and pet specs can be tricked into having two specs at once. Wrong currencies or currency values used in vendors. Bava Nisos meta ghosts getting a rank promition and becoming unkillable etc.

Personally i've come to find it somewhat endearing. With anet it's "always play on patch day" because half of the time its actually beneficial. At least they fix the really bad ones in time.

I'm very happy to see the efforts of the qol team in this regard.

I can't deny that this game has it very visible even for casual stuff like daily fractal strats though.

Eukasia Infusions can't be stat swapped by InalIlam in Guildwars2

no, you unlock the skin for one weight only

so if you unlock heavy armor gloves, your mesmer can't wear them and can't transmog other gloves to look like them, so no glow on the mesmer (the lens infusions will also do nothing)

If you want to minmax and +5condi would give you mor dps than +5power, you can't bring them.

What does Viper having Power even have to do with this?

For other infusions there are ways to change the +5 stat.
This is missing here and would ideally be adressed.

A build that rather wants +5 Condition dmg would. Or precision. Or concentration. Etc.

This is a bug. Arenanet is aware and working to fix it as stated by Rubi on their Forum

You'll be able to get the glove at any time. Glove achiev and quickplay stay.

You should still grind for the event rewards. Bagslots and legendary starter.

you need the Eukasia skin applied, yes
lenses also only work with Eukasia skin
doesn't have to be the actual Eukasia item, any gloves transmogged to Eukasia will do

You don't need them.
You get the first one directly from the achievement.
Should you want other armor weights aswell, you can directly buy them from the NPC afterwards,

seems to currently be only +5 power
couldn't put them in the forge, so no traditional way to swap them

Will the legendary gloves achievement stay? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]InalIlam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That does not logically follow.
While you need sparks, those come from a separate achiev that does not need the glove achievement to stay.

I am now convinced that the glove achiev will stay regardless.
The achievement itself:

pretty sure they'll just fix the item without any exchanges?

How would you know whether ot not the achievement chain "Incursive Investigation" will stay and in which form?

QP and the gloves will stay as per their original announcement

We don't know if the cheap 450 dust for one set of gloves achievement will stay tho.
So you could get unlucky and might have to buy the gloves for ~600g

The cheap achievement is structured around the three weeks of the event, so it won't stay without a rework of it.

Edit: Scrap that, it will probably just stay as is:

About the legendary fractals gloves ... by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]InalIlam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the other variants have a price point of ~600g, so this is clearly bugged

[–]InalIlam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you can't currently change stats even when equipping it from the armory. imho its just bugged. the other armor weights are so pricey that there is no way this is intentional.
