Really is this a joke? I just spent about 30-45 minutes in the gauntlet trying to get the boxes there. You know what I ended up with? A little over 100 of the festival tokens. I am sorry but what is the point of this? The drop rate on the rare rewards is way too low and we don’t even get a tiny bit of silver while we are there. This event is a joke- You want people to use gems for gold and have cut out every possible way to make it in the game. You know I don’t even need gold- I just want something fun to do with my time and you have not delivered in this event what-so-ever. The whole thing stinks of money grab. What happened to the game I loved so much?

It sounds like your instance wasn’t doing the event correctly then. It is profitable to farm the Pavilion if it is done the correct way.

Not the pavilion- The Gauntlet. You know the single fights that you get the ticket drops for.

Not the Pavilion guys- The gauntlet. The thing no one is doing because it is a huge waste of time- even more so than the boss fights below.

Yep did old school deadeye farm with those extra tickets and got nothing but tokens.

The balance team is chained to SPVP, and the PVE team is all about producing carnivals

question, how do the tokens you can earn compare with the getting tokens elsewhere? is it the main way to get gauntlet tickets?

All silver goes to repairing lion arch, greedy people.

On a side note, I still enjoy the Gauntlet. I beat it last year but now beating it on an ele. It is ok to enjoy stuff without rewards periodically.

You get 1 token for beating it and then you get 1 box for beating the boss, +1 extra box for each gambit. You get like 1 token per ticket I guess.

That’s what television is for. This is gaming.

I hope I cleared that up for you.

I was using up my 90+ tickets from last year and got around 100ish gauntlet chances bag, only got 1 ticket of the pavilion. Not worth doing really (I just wanted to use up the tickets).

Yeah I have a few more to use up but wow it is just NOT FUN. It is pretty clear with the lyssa backpiece recipe going for hundreds of gold that the drop rates are garbage. And 1 token lol such a joke. I really don’t need more of these tokens but seriously you get like 15 tokens for losing in the little games they have for 5 minutes of time.

I will be honest I am looking at new games if this is the direction this one is taking. I have been bored for months, but patiently waiting for something because I just new it would be worth it…. and then this is what we got. People say wildstar but you know that is NCsoft as well and I am steering clear of them from now on.

I saw the recipe on the trading post for 1000g. Was gone before I could blink.

I have been doing what I didn’t do last year, and will keep doing the easy bosses every day until I have all the festival tickets I need/want or until the event ends. Kind of surprised what a faceroll it is this year, last year it was soooo hard. This year all tier 1 and 2 bosses are ridiculously easy for me, they just drop dead with no effort. Bad rewards? I guess. Don’t do it then, the lines to fight are long enough without you.

You may consider yourself lucky. One Favor of the Pavilion is probably enough to buy back those tickets (you can buy mats on the TP and get Zephir Boxes with them for the tokens) and even get a small profit.
There’s people that have used hundreds of tickets without getting absolutely nothing but the usual single festival token.

Blame the thieves last time for farming it so much. I saw so many people announcing getting their legendary during that time.

You know I remember this from last year.. but I don’t blame them at all. They still had to put time and tickets in to it. So maybe the reward was a bit high last year, but people were playing the game at least. It is just a slap in the face to give us 1 token for our time and expect players to be happy.

Switch out “terrible” with “nonexistent” and you’re right.
