Guild Wars 2

So I know I’m a bit late with this thread, but somehow it’s just started to bug me a lot lately. I’ve beaten Zhaitan and finished my story-line, yet I’ve got nothing to show for it.
At the end of the final story dungeon we get a rare hat, which is utterly useless, because by the time you do the dungeon you’ll either have a better hat already, or saving up for a better one. Neither does it have an unique skin that makes it worth keeping. At the end of the final story we get some loot bags with random greens that go straight to the vendor.

I don’t understand this… in Guild Wars 1 you did so much to make the story worthwhile (to people who don’t necessarily played for the story only). We got titles and tokens for unique weapon skins.
In Guild Wars 2 we don’t even get a title to put underneath our name.

Suggestions for final story quest rewards:
-A title (Slayer of Zhaitan // Saviour of Tyria // Champion of Orr)
-Let us choose from 1 unique skinned item that we can only get through completing the story. Let them be tradable, so if I don’t like it I can place it on the trade post and let someone else who wants it have it.
-Let us choose from any 1 level 80 Exotic weapon that our profession can use. Upon selection of weapon type, give us the option to choose what stats we want on the weapon.
-Let us choose from any 1 legendary pre-cursor that our profession can use (untradable (one can hope, right?)).
-Give us a unique town outfit that can only be obtained by completing the final story quest. Hell, make it a t-shirt, so I can at least say “I just killed Zhaitan and all I got is this lousy t-shirt”

With any of these rewards I can at least be reminded of my victory over Zhaitan. It’d give me something that I can actually use as a max geared character or to be proud of (lol).

Apparently they’re planning to put in a token system to let you pick a reward a la gw1. Still, I couldn’t help imagining the npcs saying “Hey, thanks for saving us! Since you’re not doing anything anymore, you could throw this junk away on your way out?”

Do you have a source for this?

Never underestimate the power of the forum search function ;-)

Thanks, sounds good.=P I suppose this thread won’t have much more purpose then anymore.

A ll in all it’s a much better solution than what has happened to my characters on earlier parts of the personal story when no quest reward (or xp) was given…. a response stating “sorry but we have no capability to retroactively give players any items or xp they should have received.”

There is an NPC in the Fort Trinity instance AFTER you kill Zhaitan (aka the real end of the story) that lets you sell crap for tokens. He’s in the bit you can only gain access to through the personal story.
