“Once you complete the meta achievement for this release, your home instance will have a daily resource node, allowing you to harvest Quartz at your leisure .”
so i have no chance to gather the new quartz ever again? because i have from monday on no i-net connection for ca. 1 month, so i can’t complete this new achievement…
I hope we are able to complete the meta archivement not only for two weeks.
It would be not fair for those players who couldn’t take part on this event.

They have to make it as a permanent archivement.
Or at the very least have a couple of opportunities (every 1-3 months for example) to go and get it. Though I’d be better as a permanent meta achievement to work towards.
My bet is still that the quartz node will only be for either cosmetic skins or for maybe furniture (or something of that ilk) for your home instance (and eventually guild hall).

Or a second quartz node in the open world, so people without their “own” node in the home instance have less disadvantage.

Or.. you know.. you could maybe.. you know do that thing.. that thing where you hop into someone else’s home instance and.. like.. you know.. mine the kitten outta it.. you know? lol
I would like to point out that it doesn’t say anywhere that this will be the only way to obtain quartz. For all we know, quartz could be added to the world as a regular crafting material (either with new nodes or, probably more likely, as a random bonus drop from metal nodes).

That would make more sense. It seems strange to only have the node available for people who get this one living story and everyone else is out of luck. Including anyone who buys the game after this.

Yes, but even if that was the case, most of the quartz would still end up on the trading post. There is no theoretical limit to the amount that people can mine over time, but only a limited amount of crafted pieces that a player needs or wants.
(I sold off all my azurite in the end as I had no need for it.)

Either way, I’m not too worried.
Lol I sold my one azurite orb. Not much I could do with it anyway.
It will be interesting to see the recipes for the quartz. Probably the new Zenith weapons. I bet the first one made is listed on the TP for an outrageous price.
Someone was speculating it will be part of a recipe for ascended items. I hope so. They hurt jewelry crafting with the ascended stuff they have now.

That probably won’t work. Those without the node will probably see the node used up when they enter someone else’s home instance.
Otherwise people could start selling access to their home instance for a profit, or jus let people for free, making less important completing the meta event.
In any case, this should not be the only way to get that node.
ANet is injecting too many sources of regret into the game.
Too many. Regrets are bad.
