Guild Wars 2

I decided to give this a go last night. Just to get the experience and understanding of doing it. I have 70 commendations. At first I thought this was a smart way to sink some of the things that are flooding the market and driving prices down. But it appears that its a complete waste of coin. But now that I have the experience doing it, it appears that this is a really bad way for an individual to do it and they are wasting ALOT of coin. It seems it would be better just to sell your recipe for 1 copper on the trading post. 2000 commendations is alot for a really basic armor that you can otherwise buy for 9k karma (which is nothing when you have 2.5 million saved up like me). It would be cheaper to just outright buy most of the other things that can be purchased and the price of donation package is way too much. Or am I missing something?

Honestly probably the best use of making those gifts is pitching worthless food items into it that you made while leveling cooking. Most of them would’ve just been destroyed anyway.
