Guild Wars 2

In a new patch we are getting reward of 2 golds for a daily achievements, it is too much in my opinion, with 2golds per day, just from achievements, its like 730g / year. With that big income of thousand players it could harm gw2 economy really hard.

What do you feel about that ?

Kinda meh on it personally. But I’m not an economy buff.

2g is probably not enough to incentivize a large portion of people to focus on doing the new dailies unless they are currently saving up for something (although there will probably be a large number of “I hate you for making me do X, go back to the old dailies now” threads for a while).

Plus most people aren’t going to be doing them every single day.

This means that while the total potential new gold generation is pretty large, the actual generation rate will probably not be too high.

And here i am finished dailies before patch ( didn;t got the 2g ;( ) but i think it’s a cool feature since people (some) have maxed out daily achievements they need a motivation to log in and keep doing those dailies.

It is a nice incentive to do dailies for people who got capped daily AP and have too many spirit shards already

They can easily counteract it throughout the year by making temporary gold sinks for festivals and such. How much gold do you think left the system with SAB?

I feel if it is something Anet wants to do, then they should do it and people should quit finding reasons to complain about Anet giving stuff away. Seriously. The company tries to do something nice for people and all they get is grief from people like you. You actually think they didn’t consider the ramifications of how it would affect the economy before they put this into place?

2g is not a lot (in todays gw2) and can be easily accuired any other way just as fast as these dailies

730g for logging in every day.

I am gutted about this, truly gutted

;)

This is my thinking,

My first reaction was “Wow, 2 gold a day!”, my second reaction was “Eh, I don’t really have time today, I’ll start of them tomorrow…if it fits in with what I’m doing”.

2 gold is hardly anything. And you don’t get 2 gold for logging in. You have to do daily achievements.

And there have been things that have been done that have been made into gold sinks in some ways that has had no offset. This could be the way they are trying to remedy that.

soooo it will take you 4 years of hoarding gold to make a Legendary…. 2 golds is ok

I have 4 accounts now. If I do the dailies on each and include the log in bonuses, that’s about 7000 gold a year, or ~578 gold a month.

Not bad.

Tell me this is sarcasm, please!

Doesn’t bother me a bit.

Has to be sarcasm. But if 2g doesn’t motivate people to do daily nothing will. =p

Got that in a month after HoT just farming flax. Can’t see the problem

Malediktus.9250:

Yes, it is.

I wonder if it was originally designed to be 2g (if maxed) or 10 AP (if not) and someone realized that would … not be well received.

So… wouldn’t this also mean that getting the 2g every day from Teq is also ruining the economy as well? The logic is simply astounding in this. Oh and not to mention the -les gasp- 5 gold you get from doing 8 unique dungeon paths, that’s simply going to break the system!

In other words, get over it.

You are absolutely right it actually is 730g/year or even 7300g/decade and now that i come to think of it it’s 73000g/century this is a LOT of gold there this clearly needs to be nerfed

no, but when there are lets say 100.000 active players playing every day and doing achievements, its 73mili gold / year, it is HUGE amount of gold and very big gold infation. But if you could think a little bit, you would come on it on your own

I guess I’ll start doing the faster dailies on my secondary account, lol.

Well if you want to go with that line, think about if 10.000 active players make every day 2000+ gold through TP while another 100.000 players make 200+ gold… I think there’s so much of this gold inflation as you said in the game that people getting another 2g just from the dailies really isn’t going to make that massive change into the numbers.
PS. Also like some people already said in this thread earlier on, Anet will make sure most of the excess gold will be sucked out with all the gold sinks that come with all the festivals etc. so don’t you worry your pretty lil’ head with all this gold inflation talk.

Don’t forget that the gold from doing dungeons was nerfed into oblivion, so the 2g a day, for those who bother with dailies, is a small increase, but still not back to pre-dungeon gold nerf levels.

no, but since you are pulling out numbers from where it seems you usually do, to explain to you how this works, it would take an amount of effort (from my part) that i have no desire to put in doing so. But if you could just wait a little bit to finish your elementary education, you would come at it on your own

Well if you want to go with that line, think about if 10.000 active players make every day 2000+ gold through TP while another 100.000 players make 200+ gold… I think there’s so much of this gold inflation as you said in the game that people getting another 2g just from the dailies really isn’t going to make that massive change into the numbers.

Minor note: The gold players make on the TP comes from other players. It’s not an inflation source because it’s not being generated by the TP.

You can probably earn 2g in less time than it takes to do the dailies.

Ah true, thanks for correcting me on that. Though the point still remains that more than 100.000 players generate over 2g easily from elsewhere in the game without difficulty so gaining 2g from the dailies is not really as serious as the OP is making it to be.

I have 10 accounts now. so 20g per day. 600 per month..

~Not bad at all
Now I wonder whether I should do dungeons or daily

Being we have an economy expert watching everything, I am sure that he was involved with the changes. If it was that big of a deal it wouldn’t have happened.

It’s not that big an incentive when you can get more gold in a shorter time farming something.

Of course, I don’t really get the motivation, unless they are starting to think about making content locked behind achievement points or something like that.

If Dungeon rewards were nerfed because they were a harmful source of inflation, then someone’s going to have to explain to me why this is a good idea.

If 2g a day per account (roughly the amount people spend on nourishments an hour) threatens to break the economy then we have bigger problems…

And you dont forgot to overthink your pretty lil head about that player to player trade throught trading post doesnt have an effect on an inflation and doesnt change anything about making golds and gold inflation.

I believe it’s impossible to have capped daily achieves. There hasn’t been enough time since release.

There’s usually about one thread a week over in the bug forum from someone who thinks they’re not getting AP from dailies because of a bug; it’s actually because they hit the cap. Lots of people have reached it.

tbh i make 60-80 gold a day and that’s being lazy so no 2 gold wont harm the economy at all.

Well seeing as someone before you corrected me on this already and you didn’t even deny the fact that players will make much more gold from other sources of the game easily is showing just how much you’re wanting to thrive this ‘discussion’ forward just with your own hyperbole as its base only. 2 gold from completing the daily meta will not cause massive gold inflation into the game, the end.

DoctorDing.5890:

I can earn 2g on my main in a variety of ways. The only thing I do on my alt account, however, is dailies. For many of those with second (or third etc) accounts, that’s an extra 2+g/day without any extra effort. More coin means more of us being willing to pay more for a variety of things, which is inflationary.

Will this matter enough given all the various sinks in the game now? Let’s also include the other faucets: restored dungeon rewards, new dungeon daily, increased event rewards (liquid, map, and other). Now how much pressure is there on overall prices to rise?

Since we don’t have the data that Probably John Smith has, so we can only speculate. While I would guess that Smith is satisfied this won’t be a problem, I find it hard to see why: he was concerned enough at HoT launch to ensure reductions in faucets. What changed that he’s ready for ANet to toss out extra gold now?

+1

for all those other
yes you can get more gold by farming
but you get it from other players
by selling your stuff mostly
and even then it gets reduced by the listing fee a bit

but you are free to explain me how you great those amount OUT OF NOTHING (NOT BY SELLING STUFF)
because direct money out of nothing is limited to a view sources (teqatel daily, personal story and so on)

with this new 2 soucres (new daily 2g and “old” dungeon 5g )
you generate it out of nowear
similiar to the 5g from pvp league traks and the view silver between

i have nothing against it don t get me wrong
but that gold you have there is basicaly lose in value
you have more but you can buy less

i expect now for example trading post skins go bak up
and starting on its introduction on 100g again similar to pre dungeon nerf
sure it should take a view months
5-6 months ago was the nerf if i remember correct?
if we not get any new sinks
with ls3 and maybe finaly jeweler cook 500 or cultu armor t4
even scribing cost was reduced

so what what do you expect peopl do with the new gold gain?
yep sure skins maybe go up
we will see but i bought a view more skins
THE END? :P

Maybe they want casual players who only have time to log in each day for the daily quests to have a chance to save up for legendary?

I think it’s called re-inflating the economy following the great HoT Crash.

It’s fine.

Still takes a week’s worth of dailies to buy 1 magumma lily.

If anyone thinks they are getting too much gold feel free to send your extra to me. I will make sure to dispose of it properly.

..And when players prance around with their 730+ gold in their pockets shall they swiftly remember the foul sting of inflation at work – you cannot prance around with that Legendary so soon, child, for it now costs 10,000 gold.

Even though it only takes me 3-5 minutes to complete my dailies, I still haven’t been doing them. The 2g is an incentive for me since I don’t really make a lot of gold each time I play. For me, this is a fabulous return on my time and will help me with some expenses I’m incurring right now making another legendary.
