Guild Wars 2

any plans to update the rewards for achievement chests?
seems kinda silly to just get 2 gold for an 18,000 achievement point chest.
it used to be fun, but now why bother collection the APs?

oh and that 10k karma dont forget that

I doubt they’ll ever update the chests. The higher the AP level the fewer people who will ever get those rewards. Right now the cutoff for 90 percentile is about 2000 AP, which means the vast majority of gw2 players past and present are below that. It will cost them time and money to update for a relative handful of people. (And I have over 24k AP so I’d be one of the people who’d benefit from an update.)

How about they do a gw1 and award titles that don’t have the word “Acheiver” in it

Like the own about walking with gods, owning many leather books, flameseeker, and so forth because GW1 had many nice titles that you had to earn. While Gw2 has some very nice titles but there meaningless because there so easy to acquire just look at the Silverwastes titles for instance.

Either titles or a legendary as we already have weapons, backpacks, and soon to be armor so why not legendary trinket, legendary backpack, or that blank legendary weapon thing they used to talk about they’d only need to make it an absurdly high achievement number that a player could hit simply from years of staying loyal.

I think we can all admit nobody breaks into 5-figure achievement points for the sake of 2 gold.

400 gems every 5k AP is a nice reward

they did add a whole lot of new achievements with HOT, so it is something that they are paying attention too. its just that the rewards are pointless with the changes to the dailies.

the unique skins are the reward

the gold is just extra on top

u dont get a skin with each milestone tho and the karma could use some balancing 10k karma is laughable when i make more than that on t4 fracs alone.

you have to agree that a reward for a couple years of effort that equates to the same as an hour or 2 of grinding is not really an exciting reward. I think a unique pet every 5k would be a good way to go.

that is partially because the rewards are so little and often quite uninterestimg if they rebalanced and made them more plenty and disireable you’d see that 2k ap go way up.

No one grinds specifically for those reward chests, they’re just a nice bonus.
