Game Update October 20

Another problem....I open my Guild Window, it shows me as offline. Resarted my client....still the same problem. I doubt anyone can PST me either...

Experiencing problems with my guild too.. everytime I change towns I get kicked then I hear the trumpets sound and I'm back in my guild a few secs later.

Fix this please ANet.

I was lagging like crazy, but after a simple reboot.. It's gone!

Like in those commercials where they make nasty stains on clothes and random guy comes in with a super product and removes it! AMAZING!

Same issue here. I just open the guild window and hit my name in the party box (out of town that is anyway) and then it's fine again.

I'd hate to be a network programmer. Keep up the good work ArenaNet! We're with ya!

I'm not getting this, however every time I change towns or districts I am getting the guild message appear over and over again. Also seeing various NPC's glowing blue (not just the henchies) however this isn't happening in all towns.

What about people who quit playing after a while? Can't they sell or give their game to someone else? Because that's what mostly happens if someone quits a game.

bah, got stuck in the ring of fire mission, literally frozen (can't move, type, use any skills), yet someone from my party messaged me as if i were still online? what kind of lag is this? and no, don't try to pin the lag on me, im pinging google @ 78ms.

another thing that you still have not changed anet, please change the guild chat to STAY on guild chat after zoning; all other types of chat remain the same, but guild chat reverts to "all", very irritating.

Great... my computer crashes and I can't even check to see what damages I might have encountered with my account.

can someone post the update info? Websense blocks it at my work computer and my home computer is f*cked right now, it won't boot up so I can't read it at home either. Thanks.

No, they can't. And as hardnosed as it seems, I agree with them. It costs a *lot* in support to deal with the hundreds of people who buy accounts off Ebay or whatever only to find that the person they bought it did something to it - got themselves restricted/banned for cheating, got a bad reputation and got himself on everyone's ignore lists, changed the password after selling it, whatever.

Can create new characters again! Woohoo!

I couldn't care less about fixing rare bugs or any of that, I just want that tormentors set of mine, you know, the one I've had for months, that's not been updated, you know, that one, that's...not been updated.

To be updated.

Ok. I've got a funny lag story. So, I'm out /w the henchies and I hit a bit of lag... my health bar stays at 100%., and the henchies around me all move from 100% to 30-60% in one big swish. So, I was happy for a second that I didn't get hit... till I noticed the -15% death penalty that appeared. I guess in that lag, I was hit a few times, died, and a henchie used their res signet on me. It was just... well... funny to not even show a death animation, but instead the -15% DP just pops up as if it was another hex or something.

I hear everywhere about the Tormento's Set. What is incomplete about it? And will an update effect people that already have it, or just newly crafted armors?

The 15k tormentor's set for necromancers, is the only unupdated 15k set in the game (I guess if you don't count the gladiator helmet or whatever). They updated all the other 15k armors to look different than their 1.5k droknar counterparts, but not the tormentors. It still looks the same as the cheap-as-shit version, and it's been the only set left to update for a while now.

And when it's updated, it will be updated for everyone, those that already have it, and obviously those that buy afterwards.

Rockmolders are now 10% skill recharge instead of 20%. This may deserve its own thread.

Is this true? Mine still says 20%

Also ward graphics were updated.

Great, now I'm going to buy out old Rockmolders for 5k each!

Also, Malinon's holding hammers now, and Wards have new graphics. Methinks other things changed too.

EDIT: I really shouldn't be posting while playing.

The ward graphics might be a bug since the same thing appears around wells.

Question to Anet: Why don't you actually list everything you changed?

Dark binders seem to be a bit bugged too, I've had a few just sit there and stare at me until they died.

bout 15K tormentors all i can say is the longer theyre working on it the more there perfecting every bit of detail till its perfect
