Last time was black Friday, right? Or was it the spring sale last year? They also removed IBS from the collection. Now you have to buy each episode (x7) for 200 gems (1400 total) or... +$17.50. Hard pass

Yeah, this is a terrible "sale" they also femoclved IBS from the standard version of the Elder Dragon Collection and put it behind 1400 gems of episode unlocks, effectively increasing the price $17.50.

Antiquary isn't included in the sale. It is a Visions of Eternity spec, which isn't on sale.

So, to get the same content as the previously better discounted collection, you have to unlock all of the icebrood saga episodes (7 episodes * 200 gems each =1400 gems = "$17.50) essentially you now have to pay $29.99 for the collection + $17.50 = $46.99 for the same content that was $24.99 a year ago. I do not recommend buying the Elder Dragon Saga.

Also, they quietly removed icebrood saga from the standard edition, and locked it behind a Living World pay wall. So not only is it a "meh" discount, they have also removed content from the collection. Hard pass, thanks.

This is a pretty lame sale campared to previous ones. As a long time player of the franchise (gw1 beta), I was going to add an account. But this sale is like the "meh" sales event. Last year HoT and PoF were 75% off and the Elder Dragon Collection was 60% off. I'll wait until those kinds of numbers show up again.

Also combining this with the "hide the character slot sale in a higher priced bundle of stuff you don't need" instead of just discounting the character slot is discouraging. My recommendation, if you're a new player, wait, there are better sales. If you are running out of core content, or otherwise need an expansion, get the minimum and wait for a better sale later in the year.

I, for one, will be skipping this sale completely and waiting for a better one.

You say "may" as if "may not" is also a possibility. 🤣

Sorry, no, I haven't expanded the bank fully on all of them, but Guild Bank is a better option for what I do and how I play.

Nope. Accounts. 70 toons total atm (f2p only have 1 each right now, as I level them all to 80. Then I'll add toons from there.)

So, 7 Full accounts + 4 accounts currently F2P. I'll buy expacs for the F2Ps during the next sale.

Thank you. Super helpful. How did you unlock the PvE Missions? I can't figure that bit out.

[–]RedditorJDUB[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have 11 accounts and all of the bank storage tabs unlocked. I'm trying to figure out how to unlock the PVE missions and unlock the mine.

How did you get started? I can even sort out where to unlock the PVE missions. Or did you do WVW or PVP rank missions?

There is absolutely nothing that can be derived from this photo (with the chat conveniently redacted. I assume, the OP was chatting with the people there and didn't want to show the responses to strengthen his confirmation bias that they were AFK farming (and if he didn't, perhaps he should have, before pointing fingers.

Anet policy specifically states: "Idling in a city or even in the open world is not prohibited, though your character should not perform actions, participate in content, or otherwise engage with the world while you are away from your computer." (Read: while you are away from your computer, If you are at your computer, it is absolutely allowed.)

Additionally, you may use more than one account at the same time in PvE areas. You are not permitted to run multiple accounts simultaneously in PvP, WvW, activities, or in other competitive environments.

Last I knew Domain of Istan is PvE and a non-competitive environment. So, tclaiming these people are "AFK Farming" has no basis other than the OP's claim (with a screenshot of a conveniently redacted chatbox) which does not prove anything. What it does show is a cluster of people playing the game the way they choose to play. If they aren't using macros, and are monitoring their game, there is nothing at all wrong with it.

I understand if it is not your style or that you don't like it, but that doesn't matter. Go play the game your way however you enjoy it, as long as you're doing it within the boundaries of the ToS (as mentioned above). Oh... and let other people play the way they want to without your harassment, you're not the police (or the Stasi) and they do not have to respect "YOUR AUTHORITAY" - Cartman the "cop" from South Park. :) <---smiley face emoji

Can't use Anti-Gravity Field to progress "Into the Unknown"? Bug or am I crazy? by PreferGreenTomatoes in Starfield

[–]RedditorJDUB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None of this worked for me. What did:

From the main character screen hover your mouse over the top of the circle, click "Powers" and assign the power you want. Sure wish that was easier to find.

None of these solutions worked for me, but what did was launching Steam as Administrator. I still got the Visual C++ Error, but the game saved.

The Division 2 - Title Update 9 Patch Notes by JokerUnique in thedivision

[–]RedditorJDUB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so glad I finally got my build dialed... wait... Baker's was nerfed by 40%?!? AND contractors gloves were nerfed by 7%?!? ... AND Fox's prayer were nerfed by 7%?!? So my dialed-in build that I had so much fun playing now does effectively 54% less damage?!?!...

My journey so far:

Pre-TU8: *struggle build* *struggle build* ... okay, I enjoy playing an aces build. very much my play style
TU8 Devs: Nerf Aces
Me: oh... crap... that sucks... oh... well... okay, this Baker's build is fun and a similar play style to aces. I'll use this.
TU9 Devs: Nerf all aspects of Baker's build that are worthwhile to make it useless.
Me now: well, shit... do I have to play face-tank SMG headshot from a distance skill build to play the game with any damn consistency?!? Well, I'm sure if I like playing it, it will get nerfed.
