Guild Wars 2

Any chance we could implement some extra ways to earn laurels? Maybe some skill based tasks, or doing additional daily activities – say you complete 10 activities you get 2 laurels?

I have 9 toons to gear out – this is going to take me until we have the first home base on planet Mars.

10 activities for 2 laurels? easily spammable o.o could use more laurels , but we already get like 450+ per year.

It’s the world we live in I’m afraid. It’s the nature of MMO’s. I will ask though, since there’s only 8 professions, why have more than one of the same?

I don’t foresee Anet changing how we acquire Laurels. However I would offer some advice if your wanting to gear that many toons. I have 10 80s myself and have had no problems getting them outfitted with ascended trinkets.

1. Only Amulets are exclusive to the Laurel Vendor, for 30 unless you use wvw Tokens which will reduce this to 20. Since this was implemented its how I always purchase mine.

2. Rings can be gotten from Fractals of the Mist. With the new update this is faster then then doing the daily to earn laurels as we can get more then one pristine starting even at low levels. So if my guild is not in wvw we do two are three runs a day.

3. Accessories are obtained with Guild Commendations and gold. Even though we spend a good portion of our time in WvW my guild finds one night a week to knock out all the missions to earn us commendations for gear or what not.

Its not a perfect system by far, but its what we have to work with now.

My main is a power Necro which i never intend to change since i obtained the Legendary Frostfang, but i wanted to try a condi Necro as well. TBH, power is way more fun.

Easy enough to level up to 80 – takes a couple of weeks.

My guild of 2 active players aren’t doing any guild missions, nor fractals… and experience has taught me that PUGs are not great. Oh well…

Soon we’ll have Ascended armour and we’ll probably require laurels to buy the recipes (for some reason). I think A-net just wants it to take as long as possible to acquire this stuff – people with alts be kitten ed.
