Guild Wars 2

So as I do not have much time to play, but I would like to have one of the older backpieces that I missed, what is the best way to get tokens? I am not asking for a handout, but the aspect race and arena only give up to like 21 per win, the gauntlet only gives 1 per win, and the boss blitz is horrible.

Aspect Arena worked for me. Got my 400 I needed over the last hour or so. Shouldn’t be too much trouble. Especially if you find a good group.

Aspect Arena. 10-15 if you lose, 15-25 if you win. Short rounds too.

I forgot to mention, make sure you stay through the dialog in LA story. You get a bunch from that the first time through.

wow, that is pretty fast. I need to try it again now that they patched the 1hit kill bug….

You get at least 15 from doing the crystal essence collection thing too, so that’s another option.

What I have been doing is cycling through the main events (dolyak race and charged crystal) in the bazaar and while countdown timer is up, hit up arena or sprint.
I can do Wabout 3 matches on countdown timer I think.
With silver or above on the events you get 40+ tokens. I don’t remember what I’m getting for the arena or sprint but I’m at 550 in 2-3 hours of very casual play
Goodluck!.

I hope they add more ways to get tokens because the pvp mode is awful.

The meta gives 1600, correct?

I think doing each gauntlet boss once a day for the daily 20ish each, is also good.

You don’t like the arena?! That’s some of the most fun I’ve had in this game to date! I loved sitting on top of the rock in mid and just trolling people with my sun beam and pulling people to their doom with the black hole. Plus, it’s really easy to cap with sun #5. I’ve carried my team many times by going with sun aspect and just running crystals. Super fast and fun.

Maybe it will grow on me, but right now I just don’t find it fun at all. The matches feel more like they’re based on luck than skill.

Yeah, it can be if you have teammates that don’t know that capping is what gets points.

Also, since there’s no healing, you pretty much have to get the drop on your enemy in order to kill them. If you didn’t, run and try again later. xD

But yeah, the token numbers vary sometimes. For a win, I’ll sometimes get 18, other times, 24. /shrug

I think I’m mostly just sick of maps where the fighting based around knocking your opponent off the map, but it gives me tokens so I guess I have to live with it.
