Guild Wars 2

I logged in this morning super excited to finish my monthly achievements. I have been grinding WvW for the 50 kills needed, and I have to tell you, I’m not a huge fan of WvW, but I figured the reward for completing the monthly objectives would be well worth the 10+ hours spend getting destroyed in WvW. I finally completed got my 50 WvW kills! I click on the box, and of course I get the 20 mystic coins. Pretty sweet… But then I notice I get 38 copper… Seriously…? 38 copper….? That doesnt even cover half of one of my many repair bills from WvW. I could have grinded out some rare mats for 30 mins, sold them on the trader, then just bought the mystic coins with that money. I spent a lot of time dedicating myself to getting the monthly achievement, and while I still love this game, I’m very disappointed in the pay out. If the amount of coin stays the same, I really see no point in even worrying about the monthly achievements. Please up the amount of coin. 38 copper is just crazy low for the amount of time and work put in.

Thanks,

Agreed. 46 copper here for my monthly on a level 72. That’s not a reward, that’s an insult.

I logged into the forum today to post a similar story, Nefulum. After putting in tons of hours toward this goal, needlessly salvaging items I would have otherwise sold (just so I could reach the 500 item quota) I was extremely disappointed to find that the reward was 20 mystic coins, 56 copper, and ONLY 2,100 exp??!? Seriously?? LESS exp than most dynamic events? It seems insulting really. Why bother???

I really thought this achievement would mean something more……..

Gold overall is impossible to come by in this game without grinding and farming, and even when grinding and farming there’s an anti-farm code slapped on everything; killing mobs yields less and less drops, dynamic events have diminishing returns, monthly achievements give you 80 copper.

Basically, all you can do is farm rare crafting material and sell it on the TP.

What we need is some form of daily hearts in some new zone, where people can get a steady income.

I’ve gotten almost all of my cash through one-time sources, e.g finishing a zone.

The gold reward for Monthlies definitely needs to be looked at. When I get ~4 silver for doing a Daily and ~54 copper for doing a Monthly something is wrong.
