Guild Wars 2

Step 1: Buy 250 Iron ore or Platinum Ore
Step 2: Refine 20 Iron ore or Platinum ore into Iron or Platinum ingots
Step 3: Vendor or sell ingots on the TP
Step 4: Watch in amazement as you complete the daily in 5 seconds
Step 5: ???
Step 6: Profit

Here you go.

For 27 silver you’ll have enough ore to last you 2 weeks.

You’re welcome.

You just don’t get it do you? Some of the people who play an mmo do not get into crafting at all/ Some do it for the PVP only. So what you just said does not help us at all.

Some people do not like to go into WvWvW but they like “Crafting” . Wonder how they would feel if they had to do WvW in order to finish the daily?

What? It’s easy for me, just go kill 20 people. That only takes me a couple minutes.

You are welcome….

Noooooo … we have to do WvW if we want to complete the monthly. I’ve been getting kittened over by this since launch. Welcome to my world.

Log in.
Wander down past Shaemoor Garrison in Queensdale.
Pick up all the Copper Ore and Trees around Windloss Delves.
Take a splash in Lake Devlan just a hop skip and a jump north.
Kill all of the numerous drake.
Head to crafting bench of choice, refine copper and wood.

Scratch your head as you realise combo fields wasn’t as simple as first thought.
Proceed to try every combination as a melee class.
Give up and log your Ranger and complete in 5 mins.

How my post-update GW2 life went. It wasn’t that painful.

Did anyone actually read the patch notes?

“Daily achievements now rotate on a daily basis.”

If one of the daily achievements is not to your liking, you are free to skip it on that day.

Omega.1473:

CL, your argument is total bunk and the exact issue you’re arguing against has been in place for 3 months straight. Anet doesn’t care about your viewpoint obviously.

I’m not arguing anything. I’m simply stating why people are objecting to the dailies. I can understand their point of view. The crafting being added to dailies doesn’t affect me too much personally since I’m already a crafter.

I’ll probably do it on my Ranger as well. Makes it pretty easy when your auto-attack is a combo finisher. Guess that will give everyone a chance to play with ranged attacks for a few minutes a day.

You give a person a full cake, and they complain they can’t eat the plate.

Seriously…mind boggling.

What do you like to do in game? WvW? Were you on this forum complaining about having to obtain WvW player kills for the monthly?

What about fractals? Do you like them? Were you on this forum complaining about having to do fractals for the monthly?

I have a friend who doesn’t like combat, he likes to craft and play the TP…. Never came to the forum demanding for the combat system to be removed tho…

Your post is selfish, did you complain about having to harvest nodes? You can still do that and refine the materials in seconds. This is a nothing achievement that I am sure you can easily live with until they add the option to choose different dailies to do… Which they will, step down off your box and relax…. Your gonna be OK.

You can just hear their last meeting.

“what people dont like underwater fighting?”
“people still havent got 400 on crafting?”
“we still have people playing solo?”

Its ok we can fix that… make it a reward, they will play how we expect them too.
Tbh suprised they didnt make you do a fractal a day too… coz you can never run those too many times.
If I cant complete all this in WvW then its going to go the same way as the monthly… another tab i dont look in.

Oh and someone saying about profit for making the ingots.. when everyone wants the raw material and people are trying to get rid of their crafts, the raw mat is gonna be worth a dam sight more than ingots coz you now have everyone making them.

This is a pretty silly part of the daily. Not because it’s unfair to non crafters, just because of how pointless it is. So I can go buy some iron ore or silver ore from the TP, just make and sell off the ingots quickly and maybe lose 12c, and then the crafting part is done. It’s not even a thing.

And the only one that affects is you so please feel free to never do a daily again if you don’t want to.

Crafting 10 Copper Ingots was easy. I was more upset with the Combo kill achievement..

I think thats what I just said… by another tab i wont bother with.

I didn’t know you could just do 4 of 6, that’s a great idea and solves the problem. You can just skip whatever activity you really don’t like doing. Good call Anet, hope to see that feature soon

Its another gold sink (as if the game didn’t have enough). The reason is b/c crafted items are mostly worth less than the sum of the materials required to make them.

Crafting? Seriously? The stupid dodging needs to be removed if anything.

I agree with this. As easy as it might be, it’s a really bad daily. I can see it’s value once we are able to choose our dailies, but until then I will resent being forced to do something I haven’t done since launch week unless I was power levelling another toon.

The Dailies changed. You must now kill 13 different creature types, revive 10 players, dodge 15 attacks, gather 20 items and do 5 events.

Now stop kittening, and if you dare complain about having to revive people or [gasp] DODGING I will shoot a unicorn up yo %#&.

heh, now some of you can feel what I feel about the WvW being a part of the Monthly, when there already is a PvP Monthly, the WvW should be in the PvP monthly, and the Monthly should be 100% PvE.

LOL, wtf. My thoughts exactly, then I realized you only need to do 10

10!

TEN!!!!

You won’t even lose money on this, and it’s like the most easiest daily ever. Just refine some copper ore or whatever and then sell the copper ingots.

as a gathcraftsplorer who enjoys only the pve side of the open world I sympathize with the OP to me adding crafting is the same exact thing as requiring a certain play style thus limiting choices. It’s no different then requiring WvW as the completion for world exploration. It should be removed. It doesn’t matter that it’s easy, it doesn’t matter that it’s quick it’s still requiring people play in a certain way.

This game has a long way to go if it’s truly going to be a game of “play however you want”.

Where is the choice? Why can’t we the players choose 5 things out of a list of 15*20 to do daily instead of having more restrictive gameplay?

Opening the crafting window is apparently a personal affront to some people.

eisberg…

I agree with your post! Never understood that about the monthly.

This is something ArenaNet should not change.

Of course someone is going to come here every day and complain that “OMG, the daily/monthly requires me to do X and I don’t want to do it!”. The idea behind dailies and monthlies is that they reward multiple different aspects of the game, so it’s obvious that once in a while they will involve an aspect of the game someone does not enjoy. The best fix for this is something ArenaNet already promised – giving 6 options and requiring people to do only 4 of them. Even then, some people are going to complain – I’m sure a guy who only enjoys playing through Fractals over and over will complain about not being able to do all dailies within Fractals alone. That kind of complaint is rather meaningless, though.

ArenaNet, please don’t change this. It’s not worth changing, and there are a lot more important things in the game to be fixed (like all the remaining bugs).

Masterpyro.4310:

I was under the impression we were supposed to pick and chose like 4 of 6 dailies that we wanted to do. I second this, I’ve already got all the crafts to 400, i have no reason to craft.

Now you do!

Sell them for what? lol Pretty much everyone is going to be refining copper ore for this daily and the already very low price of copper will plummet. The profit margin will likely become so low that it’s not worth the time to run out and grab the 20 chunks in the first place.
