Guild Wars 2

The patch notes mention that items from previous living world activities have a chance to drop to those scoring top tier achievement during the invasion phases. Does this include meta rewards or things like Molten Jetpack, Zephyr back/helms, minis, etc?

It might very well, because here’s what I got: Mini Cobalt Great Jungle Wurm Head. Because all main servers are bugged these rewards aren’t given out atm though.

I’ve yet to be in an instance where we got to the next level after 500 ‘rescued’. (I assume thats the top tier thing you’re talking about)
I really hope the numbers come down just a bit (like 1000 for top tier) or its just because its new and people aren’t focusing/knowing on rescuing the citizens.
