Isn't possible to get this tech for trinkets too? I would love to have some specific flavor trinkets transmuted instead of the ugly ember bay ones. That also would fix the conundrum of some people who wants the legendary trinkets but not their auras.
I have no insight into that, sorry!
Just a PSA.
Not sure if it is a bug or "feature", but... Glyphs cannot be applied to: - Consortium Harvesting Sickle (Unlimited) - Chop-It-All Logging Axe (Unlimited) - Molten Alliance Mining Pick (Unlimited)
Those harvesting tools are marked as red when I try to apply Glyph of the Leatherworker.
UPDATE! You can trade them for account bound versions in Trader's Forum in LA. Thank you all for the help! :)
To the best of my knowledge, if a tool has a slot you should be able to apply any glyph to it. I was able to apply Glyph of the Leatherworker to the Chop-It-All Axe just now--if it persists I'd recommend filing a bug report in game.
Absolutely stellar! I'm blown away at how you've captured the complexity of Zimmer's songs with the handful of instruments available in the game! Amazing work!
These two are part of the same spawn, so it turns out they are randomizing their respective positions between instances. It's sort of funny, but not intended. I'll fix that for the next time the SAB festival comes around.
This will be fixed in an upcoming build.
Hmm. I guess I have a question for both you and /u/Dornsinger then - more out of curiosity than anything.
I've kept track of which "Recording Device" is my "original stack", and it looks like the number I had is preserved; the game knows that the "original stack" still has 19 Recording Devices in it (even if in-game, it doesn't "look like it"). My API reports the following in the v2/account/bank endpoint:
{ "id": 87114, "count": 19, "binding": "Account" }, { "id": 87114, "count": 1, "binding": "Account" }, { "id": 87114, "count": 1, "binding": "Account" }, //etc, from replacement mailsWhere 87114 is the item ID for the Recording Device. So this leads me to have a question: when the item is made stackable again, will the "original stack" once again have whatever the original quantity was? (And were they made unstackable on accident?)
I'm not 100% sure, but from some testing locally, they should reappear (so long as that item isn't used to make a recording or something else happens to change that value). And yeah, they became unstackable as a side effect of a change that I made to fix a rare issue that some people were reporting, and we missed that that change caused the devices to not stack anymore.
Can we please flag them as stackable again? I had them in a shared slot in case I did an event on an alt.
They should be stackable again in the next build.
This is absolutely nuts. Fantastic job.
Get out.
Hey all. Just wanted to pop in and say that this was probably not our most thought-through achievement. We kept it on standard with the other SAB backpack (SABackpack?) collections, but didn't really consider the sort of pressure this would apply to you. We're investigating various options to rectify this. The basis of what we want to do is make it so you don't need all 16 weapon skins to get the backpack, but exactly what that looks like we haven't solved yet. Unfortunately, we won't be able to get a change out during this festival. Changing live achievements is very risky, and we want to make sure we have a solution that doesn't have the risk of losing player progress and works retroactively.
No Sylvari chairs? You fail, Evon. No wonder you lost the election.
We had one, but they look just like flowers, and...well...
Can I interest you in some SEIMUR ice cream with hand-crafted organic petal sauce?
well, its your job to communicate with the players if you are in charge of the promotion.
if the statement still stands as you said, you communicate on behalf of the dev team with us. no need to talk arround that fact.or do you want to say you have no idea what your dev team is thinking / doing?
i am pretty sure you got some plan on what and how to communicate to the outside...or am i wrong?
I'm posting on Reddit as myself, not engaging in official communication as the voice of the studio or any other team. Rubi linked a blog written by Josh Foreman in which he gave solid information about plans for Super Adventure Festival in his own words.
What I don't want is for my comments to be taken as "the devs feel a way about this" because I'm not delivering messaging from them unless we count recirculating what's already been said. And that's not because I'm trying to put people off or discourage anyone, but because I have no other information to give.
That would be the ＴＯＴＡＬＬＹ ＲＡＤＩＣＡＬ Joey Marin!
Joey is amazing.
Also, /u/Anatoli_Ingram (AKA Tubular Toli) conceptualized the overall theme of this years page, and Web Programmer Kevin Cameron brought it to life!
Reading the dev comments here makes me sad. No W3, no new rewards(4 food items is a joke), lack of AP achievements. I know it takes time to update festivals but its important to do so. GW2 has set itself apart from other MMOs by doing making events fresh and new. With each festival we get it feels like they either become more lazy or lack the $$ to invest in updating them. You can definitely tell this dev team isn't the same we had at the launch of the game.
I don't want my comments here to be interpreted as statements on behalf of the dev team. My team promotes the festival, and we want to clarify the statements that have already been put out so people don't feel like there's no solid information.
Extra-weird question: is Mina in the game based on an asura Moto knows?
I'm not sure! My knowledge of Super Adventure Lore is limited to what's been released in the game.
Where did lord vanquish's twitter account go? That was solid gold.
The account is still there, but I'm not actually sure who was behind it! It wasn't an official promotion by us or anything. :D
Is that what Mina looks like in real Tyria? Wait, is Mina a real asura and not just some made-up facade worn by Moto???
Princess Miya is just a character inside Super Adventure Box, but the design for the release page was inspired by old video game ads that marketed simple 8-bit games with detailed fantasy art and "lore" that...really isn't reflected in the game itself and was probably made up by the advertising agency. :D
Thanks alot for the answer, however i did know about that past blog entry and its almost two years old now. I am such a huge fan of the SAb that i just can't let this stand as it is - the SAB still has the unreachable upgrade in W2-2, it still has the W3 and W4 doors in the lobby, it still has an unsaved damsel in distress... the entire design still screams theres more to come, and to put it bluntly, that is what makes it unfair - i can't rest until Miya is saved :S
Rubi and I aren't on the development team; we're part of the content marketing team. We don't have an impact on the kind of content that gets made, but we do love SAB and we want to have fun with the festival content.
When we do goofy stuff around SAF, we try really hard to make sure we're not accidentally getting players' hopes up in a way that won't pay off, or coming to a point where new promotions around the festival will be more disappointing and upsetting than fun. That's why we want to be very clear that while we know SAB fans would really enjoy more content, the statement in the blog is still accurate.
Third paragraph down: "Guild Wars 2 is a huge game, and keeping it strong means making tough decisions about where to spend our time to best serve the most players. We decided we couldn’t justify the sacrifice to Guild Wars 2 to make more new worlds for SAB."
I hope at the very least it's still on the table.
No one is asking for it right now, but maybe next year, or the year after.
We've been waiting patiently for years, and many of us still haven't given up hope.
We appreciate how much you love SAB, but the blog post Rubi linked is the information we have on plans for the content. None of us on the content marketing team are aware of any changes, and it's probably safe to take it as the definitive answer.
Lemme fix that link https://gfycat.com/SizzlingUnluckyBlueshark
I have a sneaky secret: I linked to the small version because there were some weird artifacts in the full sized one I didn't have time to fix. :)
I can't get anything past you!
