Guild Wars 2

So I need a gift of Zhaitian for my Legendary weapon I want to make, however arena net since you nerfed Dungeons so bad no one even goes in them unless its story for XP. I have tried for over a week now to find one, heck even make my own and all I see is Story or people charging 5gold a run to let you join…that’s 15gold a day for 180 tokens….I already spent every silver I had to make this I cant afford that too and I should NOT have to pay to get this item.

SO Arena net wth did you not put those Gifts from every dungeon up for sale with a old currency like karma, bandit crests, badge of honor etc, etc. You said you wanted to push people to do fractals, fine can I get a gift doing a fractal? ( no) Then you introduce new Pre-Cursor weapons, awesome, however pre-cursor done and I still cant move on with no GIFT. // Scratches head// I DO Not see your logic.

And yes I have a Guild , but again it brings us back to the original problem no one wants to do these because there is really nothing to get but wasted time for most people, since all the vets have loads of Legendarys already.

Well, I’ve got some good news and bad news. Good news is, you’re about to get really good at the game. Bad news is, this is by smashing your head against a metaphorical rock until the rock breaks.

I faced a similar problem when getting the dungeon master achievement, in that the only groups that ever formed were either experienced meta +10kAR (which I wasn’t), or selling slots, which I wasn’t going to buy. So I did the following:

#1: Watched several videos on how to run the map, both in groups and solo.
#2: Formed my own group. This usually consisted of n00bs in masterwork level gear, as they are the only ones who would join.
#3: And basically carried my group as I meticulously overcame each challenge one at a time, for the first time.

Yes, it is painful. It isn’t as hard as it used to be, as the power creep from the specialization update and HoT have made things easier. But nonetheless, you’re basically going to have to either solo, or solo with 4 incompetent b00bs running amok around you. You’ll get around 250 tokens for running all 4 paths, so you’ll have to do it twice.

Although Anet wanted to de-incentivize dungeons, they didn’t want dungeons abandoned. In fact, the precise predicament you are in is what Anet wanted. Unique items only available via dungeon tokens.

Do Spvp for tokens. The Arah reward track gives 240 tokens for completion. To unlock that track you need to have at least done the story mode for Arah or have completed it before. Arena give you more pvp track progression than custom matches. Also you can use laurel xp boosters to increase your progression on the pvp track.

Anet’s ultimatum to situations like these.

Either get a guild to help you out or get gud.

Do your PvP dailies and choose that dungeon as your reward track. If you can’t stand PvP there are the daily farm arenas, which are set up by PvE people for other PvE people. Those are daily progress capped and the daily PvP progress is less, but even if you do them you could get 500 dungeon tokens in about 2 weeks.

Oh Anet I see what you’ve done here. You’ve made most the f2p worthless so people have to pay for your overpriced HoT expansion to get any kind of end game item content. Shame on you ANET!
