Guild Wars 2

It seems like the gambit bags don’t drop much compared to the hefty price of one ticket… do you guys think it’s worth using gambits?

It’s only worth it for the achievements.

Last year, they would reward more money based on how many gambits you had active.

Now it’s absolutely worthless otherwise. Don’t bother.

They are only a time saver if you can manage to complete a multiple gambits fight, otherwise there is no advantage to using them and only risk being lost from being handicapped.

You get the same number of bags as you would fighting an enemy 5 times versus a 4 gambit fight.

Did them all the firat time for the fun of it. But I do not think it would be worth it for the money alone.

Mildly worth it. Not worth going out of your way anymore with them though. When I was using Deadeye for the new gambit achievements I would take 2-3 gambits that didn’t hinder my ability to kill him quickly just for a little extra. Like the endurance and cripple gambits.

Activating a gambit uses a gauntlet ticket that could be used for an additional fight, so they’re no more than time savers that allow you to get the profit of several fights on a single one.
During the original gauntlet they were used for farming. Since players could buy unlimited tickets directly with gold and every reward bag granted a small silver profit, gambits allowed to speed-up the process and achieve a really good gold/time ratio.

Currently, gauntlet fights reward tokens and bags.
Tokens are daily for each fight, so there’s no point on gambits. Bag farming could benefit from them but, since buying tickets require account bound tokens this time, the farm itself is very limited.

Unless you have tons of tickets saved since the original gauntlet, gambits are worth for little more than achievements.
