Guild Wars 2

What is this?

According to ANet, there are around 1100 events in-game. However, as players, we have no way of knowing how many in an area we have seen.

The Suggestion

Create an achievement title track for the number of events a player has completed for that area, keeping track of only events completed first time around.

For example, if Blazeridge Steppes has 40 events, the track for Blazeridge would only advance when you’ve done each event once. I.E repeating the defend the guard event over and over won’t progress the title track beyond doing it the first time.

Possible Addition

For replayability, in each area an NPC gives out a journal that you can fill, where you get rewarded depending on how many events you fill in.

This is a cool idea, hope they implement it!

I’d like to see this also, I was actually surprised this wasn’t in the game.

Now that would be nice!

if i fill the book, can i trade it in for Gold and Karma?

Firstly: kitten your sig. I now got that blasted song in my head -.-

OT:

Yeah. EXP, Karma and coin would scale depending on how many pages you filled in. Tying in with another idea of Area Rep, books would also award a chunk, scaling with how many pages are completed.

Tne scaling of rewards, imo, should increase progressively (i.e., 1, 2, 4, 7, 11 as opposed to 1,2,3,4,5) to encourage people to fill as much as the book as possible.

No books. Just add an achievement, no reward unnecessary.

i have some good ideas for Guildwars 2
first off the Wintersday event isn’t that good cause it is very short and doesn’t give anyone who have things to do in the real world a chance to participate in the activities while others can. i think they should make the Halloween update and the Wintersday update an all month thing and have something different for each week,
and also during the Wintersday event i saw that all the enemies in the update are all level 80 which is pretty unfair. i mean i know that the game bumps your level up to 80 but the equip u currently have may not sufficient. And it also seems that u have to have a large party/group to be able to do some of these. For this part the Halloween update was okay because it just auto assigned people to your party when fighting the Mad King. And in the Wintersday update it seems like that isn’t the case. Some people might be uncomfortable having to manually join a group where they know none of the people but if they are forced into it it seems a little less nerve racking. It just seems like some of this stuff is rushed and they didn’t take that much time in the feel for the game rather the looks. :/

I like the idea and the book idea for later. Gives you something to work towards.

The reward is to encourage people to go back to previous zones to do the books, as opposed to just going back to do the achievement

GW had something similar: Storybooks

1st: That’s cool and all, but if you got your own suggestion, you should make it as such, and not go posting in other suggestions that have nothing to do with it (known as derailing or hijacking a thread)

2nd: Paragraphs. Seriously. As a general rule, whenever you start another point, you use a new paragraph. If they’re all to do with the same topic, you could use a numbered list or bullet points. It just makes it easier to read, and people are more likely to read it.

3rd: Wintersday runs from 14th Dec to 2nd January. That’s close to a month. As it stands, I’ve done the majority of things, despite only playing close to 2 hours a week (curse you RL).

4th: For grouping, and it being unfair, what can I say? It’s an MMO. You’d be grouping up with the people whether it is manually or auto, so just flex your social skills and get it done

5th: I managed to do Tixx on my level 32 Necro. Skill can bridge the gap of stats (to a certain extent) when you got the boost.

Also think this would be a cool idea.. Here’s to hoping it gets in someday.
