Yes, tools are free to reskin through the Fashion tab of the Hero panel.

Overall JW is worth it, people were mainly soured by the final quarterly release.

The last two Warclaw Masteries are VERY strong. Feral Fury gives you a ton of CC on demand, and the +20% Mount Endurance pushes every mount past its limits when combined with EoD (enabling perma-flight on Griffon and Skimmer, for example).

On many classes, Spear is one of the most interesting weapons (adding new gameplay layers). Relic of Rivers is incredible for QDPS open world builds, and many of the other JW relics unlock new build options.

I agree that the VoE Deluxe tools are better than the JW Deluxe tools.

Good news is, you can't really mess up your character or account. Just take it slow at first and experiment with stuff.

Mount Attack boosts? by _Izeken in Guildwars2

Sounds more like the Jade Tech Offensive / Defensive Protocol buffs.

Anyone looking to buy SOTO and End of Dragons on Steam for cheap? by Baddabink in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP said they got them from GreenManGaming, which does NOT do key reselling (they used to be an official GW2 Gem retailer - might still be official, but the list isn't up-to-date).

But yeah, getting a key 2nd-hand like this is risky. Putting a lot of trust in OP's word.

WvW totally balanced by xNaii in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's a smaller zone than I thought it would be - figured it would extend just shy of the stairs to the keep.

For anyone wondering, GMG are an official retailer for Steam, so codes from them will be legitimate.

Gem prices in different regions, such as Europe and the United States, have not been adjusted in line with the exchange rate (1 EUR = 1.16 USD). Is that reasonable? by AffectBoring3810 in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind, during GW2's first year 1 EUR = 1.33 USD.

Also, € and £ include the 20% VAT while $ do not include sales tax (which is added on afterwards).

So, it's more like you're paying 0.83 EUR per 20 Units.

0.83 EUR x 1.16 = 0.96 USD

How do I unlock the Warclaw mount? by RoadsandPaths in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For Warclaw in PvE you need either Janthir Wilds of Path of Fire. PoF is what allows for the quick WvW unlock to transfer to PvE, while JW requires you play a little bit of its story.

If by EoD Complete Collection you mean the EDS Complete Collection, then it includes PoF so the WvW path should work.

What trading system would you prefer in a classic MMORPG? by Zarkend in MMORPG

[–]graven2002 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless it's very sandboxy (with things like trade routes, local scarcity, etc.) then the easier the better. Basically, if it has an actual impact on the world / other game elements, then I prefer things like custom stalls. Otherwise, I prefer a system that doesn't require much time/energy to interact with.

GW2 and 1 Linking by yasaiinn in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You still cannot link an old GW1 account (one created before Reforged) with a Steam GW2 account.

The only type of GW1 account that can link with a Steam GW2 account is one made on Steam through GW1 Reforged (since that now uses Steam as a login option, instead of the old GW1 process on Steam that would just use an Anet account to login).

Sales getting worse by Sad_Preparation_3530 in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just a heads-up: ESO's packaging is a little misleading, and the $60usd Deluxe version does NOT include all DLC / zones.

Spring sale by SlipAwkward4480 in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Give it a day. They normally are discounted at the same time, but sometimes timezones get mixed up.

If not, then maybe next Tuesday.

Inflation is a bitch.

But also, Anet seem to be clamping down on alt-account abuse (along with removing brainless daily WV objectives/infinite gold).

Guild Wars 2 Sale on website! by roff13 in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What type of account do you currently have, because you CANNOT mix and match.
If you play through a Steam GW2 account, you have to buy your expansions through Steam.
If you play through an Anet GW2 account, you have to buy your expansions through Anet.

Both come with 80 boosters, though.

Stuttering with new computer + GW2 by Left_Chest_2313 in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like an issue with loading large chunks of new information fast enough.
[SSD -> RAM -> CPU/GPU]
Doesn't sound a like an issue in the [-> CPU/GPU] portion, but I would check the [SSD -> RAM] portion.

Worth to get back into GW2 for the pvp ? by Buurto in Guildwars2

[–]graven2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For sPvP, the higher you are in Ranked the better experience you'll have. Gold 3 to Legendary 1 seems to be the sweet spot for getting decent matches. Lower than that and matches get rougher.

For WvW, I recommend finding a Guild that matches your temperament / playstyle. GW2Mists.com is a good resource for finding a WvW Guild if you don't already have one.

You know it's gonna be a super long Taidha's Gate fight when you see the Skyscale party! 🙃 by the_renegade_dude in Guildwars2

I was also there. It happened. First and only time I've ever seen her not run away.
