The idea is that there is a set of daily or even monthly achievements for every zone. i.e., when you zone from Queensdale to Kessex Hills, your daily achievement panel changes with a set specific to the zone. Obviously the WvW and other achievements that are not in the open world wouldn’t be affected.

The purpose is to spread players out and give us more incentive to explore every zone. I’d love to have Orr-specific daily achieves, or Mt. Maelstrom etc. Remember though, every zone has their own achieves, so if someone hates Orr they don’t have to do it! Go to your favorite zone and you’ll be set.

I like this idea, but I feel it would have the opposite effect of what you’re going for. Yes, some people will go and hang out in their favorite zone based on whatever they like (snow, trees, crabs, no one else is here, etc..)

However, if the dailies were specific dynamically to whatever zone you were in, I think a majority of players would just stay in their farm circles forever. Why would anyone leave Queensdale? I can farm all the champs AND get my laurels in 20 minutes without ever doing anything else.

Part of the purpose of dailies is to encourage you to move around, rather than stay in one place. Having the dailies change based on where you are defeats this purpose.

Also this doesn’t make sense. If I do three dailies in Kessex then move to Timberline Falls what happens with the three I already completed? Can I just keep doing the same daily over and over by moving to a different zone that has it all over again?

My suggestion would be to choose a Zone or two every day and make dailies specific to them. Would get people to go back to zones they have forgotten about or get them into zones they haven’t been to yet.

If you choose two zones each day for dailies, one would have to be a starter zone so that anyone in the game has it accessible (unless ANet chose to completely ignore new players, which is unlikely). As soon as a starter zone becomes an option, you end up in the same situation we have now, with no incentive to ever leave the starter zones.

So, unfortunately, while I can appreciate the intent, I don’t think this suggestion would really change anything.

The purpose is to spread players out and give us more incentive to explore every zone.

Wouldn’t the better idea then to have it be based on where you are not ? Have the Queensdale Daily be for killing Charr or doing events in Plains of Ashford for instance or if you’re in Frostgorge it should send you to Mount Maelstrom . That would truly spread people out
