Guild Wars 2

Suggestion: Removing karma consumables.

With the new patch, Karma consumables are no longer affected by any boosts like they did in the past. With the previous patch (Queen’s Jubilee) , Karma became account bound and is available in your account Wallet.

• The amount of karma granted from consumable karma items has been increased. Karma boosts no longer affect the amount of karma gained from consumable items.

Patch Notes

Since they can no longer be affected by any boosters they’re just filling up bank space or inventory space. Instead of receiving any consumables to add karma, it should be added directly to your wallet. The consumables are allready account bound, so they’re very pointless to have ingame with the new patches.

For example: completing a daily (6750 Karma) or monthly (67500 Karma) now grants you a specific amount. Instead of clicking another couple of times to add the Karma to your account, they could just add the Karma directly to your wallet.

I really do think that is their plan. Other then the obvious requirement of karma (Exotic Trinkets, Legendary Item parts, and the Racial Weapons) what other use is Karma?
IMHO Nothing.

Farming Champs I can get 20-35k karma a night, and use it on what exactly??

This post is just about the items. It’s not about what to do with your karma If you would like see more options to spend karma on, make a new suggestion.

The karma consumables could just be implemented like the tokens. That’s what I hope to see. And yes maybe it’s their plan as you said, in that case I do hope that it gets confirmed.

I would like to see Karma useful. Maybe make Karma part of TP Purchases, or Gem store Purchases to cut back on Gold costs (if you only use ingame currency and not paying for Gems directly with Real Money).

Right now, 103,351 Karma is about 1g 23s if you use the Orr Boxes to convert into Gold.

That could be a good starting point for Gem store Conversion Rates from Karma.
