Curse

The costumes are a bit pricier for the full pack this time around because there's more costumes than in previous ones. So yeah, it's going to cost a bit more.

It's not required. I've managed to do both of the quests without ever seeing this scout. Must be some kind of bug that's causing the problems.

I don't want to stumble on any spoilers in this thread since I haven't finished the new stuff, but to anyone that returns to Gwen and sees her repeating dialogue in an endless loop, rezone in the HoM. I went out and the next item didn't appear. I had to go back and made sure she didn't bug out. A bit annoying when doing it the hard way without wiki.

Alltough I hate people calling a noob..
It was a challance to do it. Why change it.. If those who couldn't do it, joint
propper guilds it would be even fun... Why o why ??

The worst part is... And don't get me wrong couse every extra quest is a bonus. But every time when there is a update for some reason I allways
check the number of hero's I can ad... but again

owell.
Better luck next time.

And good job at the quests. not so good at the Change of the battle

Pricier and people with male characters only (like me) went out losing. 3 Costumes for female characters and 2 for male ones, nice...

I get the feeling that people complaining are doing so without giving it another go, but rather just going off the update sentence itself.

Honestly, should the GW:B new content be so challenging that a majority of the casual players get too frustrated to play it? I understand we hardcore gamers enjoying some tougher areas, but again, is THIS content the appropriate place to employ such a thing? I don't believe it is. With this update, even when said to be easier, I actually still believe that BfLA and probably Temple are near the peak of difficulty when we're talking about the kind of content it is - which is new stuff for everyone to experience and a tie to GW2.

BLA HM became a joke after this update. It was the one area in the game that you could h/h that had yet to be completed h/h, and its sad to see the challenge gone. First thing i did when i logged on today was h/h it in HM, and i complete it on my first try =\. It's depressing really to see a bit of challenging content toned down to such an extent because people cant learn to play the game after 5 years.

**cosyfiep** · Nov 19, 2010, 07:36 AM // 07:36

I think if they just had uped the level of the henchies that would have been sufficient for most peeps having troubles with bla---and infuse them.

Have yet to try the new easy mode, but if the other new quests turn up something worth more than medals of honor and war supplies (xp and gold coins) I might just finish on one of the others.

Love the wedding dress! Hate the glitch!

It's a problem we have seen with a lot of armors over the years, but this dress should probably be fixed since it costs nearly $10. I don't usually play zoomed in, so it's a little annoying.

zidane888 · Nov 19, 2010, 10:13 AM // 10:13

It's not a glitch. I'ts a bellybutton.

If it was having its period, maybe.

I just tried it, and I completed it H/H in my first try too running subpar builds and subpar tactics. Wiped a few times alright but was never really threatened. Although I don't mind BLA HM being toned down (remember pre-nerf BLA HM?), I think it was toned down too much.

It's still reasonably challenging, but I'd put it as an easier area compared to Forgewight HM.

The prerequisites for all of this stuff is that you must have completed ALL of the War In Kryta stuff. If you see Gwen's last dialogue about Keiran going missing, then you know you're done.

1 extra costume for an extra 50% price increase.

Totally makes sense.

FyrFytr998 · Nov 19, 2010, 01:28 PM // 13:28

Now if they would just update again to fix the Salma not giving quests bug we can all get along.

Well, yeah. It does. Sucks for those that have only guy characters (and hopefully they'll change that), but it's simple math. A two-pack is usually $10, and considering the individual prices of each set, $15 for a three-pack is perfectly logical.

Bodock · Nov 19, 2010, 01:52 PM // 13:52

They give a tuxedo for female but not a wedding dress to male?

NerfHerder · Nov 19, 2010, 02:00 PM // 14:00

So I got the new costumes this morning and now I see what everyone is talking about. The male characters got robbed. I understand the 2 versions of the wedding set. At least you dont have to waste a black dye. But the dapper and formal sets are exactly the same. There was no point in giving us both. Was the dapper set supposed to be black? That would make since.

EDIT: I'm happy with the way it looks, I always am with Anets art/costume design. And the female costumes are amazing, if your into that kind of thing. Gj as always, but a duplicate set?

If this is the case, I'm wondering if perhaps the third item is under the same conditions as the second, in which, when Gwen is in a never-ending loop, said item does not spawn as it would normally when Gwen only goes through her speech a single time.

tnx this worked for me
