Guild Wars 2

situation: currently there isn’t a way thru consistent regular play to get black lion keys to unlock chest which accumulate to larger stacks.

remedy: add black lion key as an option to daily achievement reward. user should be allowed to pick this vs the jug of karma. by making it a part of daily achievement, it would prevent over abundance of the keys but allow players to slowly use up their supply of black lion chest.

Or, bring back Lionguard Lyns. It is outrageous that she has been restocking for 3 weeks.

Keys should be more common drops from all enemies, maybe average chance to drop from veterans, high chance from champions. I know they are exotic quality but drop rate is too low. With my luck I get about a key every 100+ hours of play.

100% chance reward from monthly? 5 of them.

I don’t know about other people, but many others have hundreds of boxes and 0 keys.

Edit: Another suggestion is to make a new recipe for the key from the mystic forge that uses skill points. More ways to get rid of skill points.

I think I’ve only gotten a few keys after 1000+ hours.

They want you to buy gems..

You are lucky then. I’ve gotten one in 900 hours.

But I’m poor…

I typically get keys when I complete maps, and then get another key in a chest.

Lionguard Lyns will more than likely not be selling BLTC chest keys anymore.
I think sales for keys (from the gem store) have dropped and so they’re going to be the only option again.

There are also 3 that can be obtained from doing the personal story.

Microtransaction.

Use Cash to buy Gems, and use Gems to buy Keys.
Use GOLD to trade for Gems, and use Gems to buy Keys

or keep starting a new toon and deleting, after you finish the first starting zones… they tend to reward a key(or at least they use to)

Still do, got 3 I haven’t used yet but it’s random between Basic Transmutation Stone and the key. Haven’t gotten any other thing yet.
