Some guildies and I were talking and we thought it might be a good idea to do yearly achievements, just like the daily and monthly. It would need to take a lot of work, obviously. But it would definitely be rewarding. Creating the motivation to play is what hooks players and since every MMOer loves good rewards, this would just be another reason to play.
Whatever the achievements were, we thought the reward could consist of the following:
250 Mystic Coins (since you get 20 for monthlies, this might make sense and be a nice little extra boost with the 10 extra)
125 jugs of Karma (10 a month plus an extra 5)
20 Gold (5 silver per day for a whole year equals out to 18.25 gold)
100 laurels (since any more might be a bit much though this could be increased as the laurel vendor’s merch is expanded through future updates)
A minipet that represents that year. Or a title. Or notation like the map completion star but different.
this last one is a maybe A random chest containing exotics or rares. This might be a bit much but it could look like map completion, especially for those who have done world completion on all characters. It gives them something to push for.
We think this could be introduced whenever the devs see the biggest lull in server traffic. Have that time of the year be the general reset for yearlies. It’d be pretty cool!
Anyway, we all love this game in a hardcore fashion. We can’t stop having fun and are so thankful for everything you developers do! You know this business better than us so thank you for even reading this post! ArenaNet rocks its socks off!!!!
