Hmm. I wonder if that was the one I've been experiencing for awhile. GW would just hang, occasionally popping up with one of those report windows. Unfortunately, I never could use the window, because it seemed to be part of the gw application, which had crashed. It was kind of amusing, except not. It only happens occasionally, and I just started ignoring it after awhile.

It was related to adding a certain access key to a player account and ka-blooey! Fortunately, the team caught that one early, so I don't know that it had much impact, if any, on anyone's gameplay.

Oh hey, knoll, sorry 'bout that streak thing.

Any idea when the Lightbringer title, and the gaze will be working again since they've been broken since the update on the 12th?

What about the Lag. On Saturday around 12pm Iv been experencing Heavy Lag. It so heavy that I cant play GW anymore, I cant do anything in game but Talk and that pretty much it, Lag so terrible after the HM update. Iv been seeing my Ping at red the whole time for past 3 days now and im getting very mad about it. Iv seen my Ping hit over 500k after the update and it wont go away it stays for hours. It not 56k im on DSL so it not any connection problem.

hahaha I'm sure it got on the list of things to do Racthoh... it will not be long. I know they just do not want to go back as the previous method was causing an unwanted effect in slavers... This was just a programing mistake I'm sure in level definition, but there is not an easy fix atm. Obviously the DoA loss of that skill was not intended. as there Lightbringer is a relevant title for the region. however obviously Slavers Exlie is not... I would expect the developer's are hard at work scratching their heads on this one. lol Obviously they do not cripple one part to benefit another.

It will take time. this one was an unexpected thing.

Let me ask that you link me to a relevant thread. You see, I visit many, many forums a day, and sometimes the topics are not clear from the subject line, and I may read but would prefer not to poke in my notes to see what you're talking about. Since this is something about which you're keenly aware, and since you'd like an answer, I'll be happy to ask if you can show me a link to a precise and concise description of the issue. Thanks.

Also decided to add it to the official wiki yesterday in hopes that it would recognized sooner:

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Talk:Lightbringer

Not much else that can be said besides the Lightbringer title and Gaze are not doing anything. We can only assume that because the gaze was previously working on the stone summit in Slaver's Exile that this was patched in the update with no notes about it, and as a result broke the mechanic entirely.

Thanks.

I always considered "OMGWTF?!?!?!?" to be a VERY sensible name! I mean surely the title alone speaks volumes of the thread!

Taking advantage Gaile is reading this thread, I wanna ask something about the quoted above, a suggestion for ArenaNet indeed:

Anyway to DON'T force people to stop playing in HA/TA/RA when a new minor update comes? If the update has nothing to do with skills, equipment, or whatever in PvP, why forcing people to stop play PvP? lose a good team, and so on?

Let's say somebodies find new exploit in scale what can give them huge advantage in PvP Top 100. To force fix to client it is logical that they disconnect from that.

Did you got my point? hmmm! I think you didn't. This update was about a little thing, not related with any PvP exploit, or skill, or PvP map, or whatever. So, there are no absolute reason for destroy all teams in RA for example.

My suggestion is CHANGE the way the update works, and don't force to stop the PvP anymore with very little updates like this one, aka, don't change the client version or something like that.

Yeah, seriously. Too many of them have off-the-wall names and are put together in a way that makes it nigh impossible to figure out what exactly the bug is.

But then again, Racthoh knows he'd be murdered if he did something like that.

Does HM mean 'Hard Mode' or 'Half Mode', because most of the treasure chests in dungeons in HM give less than 100g.

Maybe you can check that Gaile.
