What vets count?
I’ve attempted WvW vets (Control points, vets running around, Ogres in EB) – Vets during DE’s like opening CoF… nothing is counting ><

Anyone able to help me out? It’s the only thing I need, but I don’t know what counts towards the daily

I would aasume those complaining about crafting arn’t anywhere near the level to make mithril ingots. That being said jute and copper are not only everywhere in the starter area(s) but can be purchased cheap off the TP, refined and then sold back in very quick order. Even the most adamant non-crafter could do this quicker than say killing 1 champion.

As for those of us that dislike WvW we seem to have been stuck with it as a monthly forever now – join the club.

I have been master crafter for ages, anyways I didn’t buy this game to play flip wars 2, I played when making 25-30 gold a day was possible by playing the game and now it has been reduced to buying low level mats / reselling a few pennies higher or by speed-running dungeons. OH JOY!!

Not only that, the crap loot I get from 1 DE in Orr screws me out of the next event.

Thanks for letting me play ArenaNet!! I am glad I have you here telling me when it’s time to get off, or play else where. That is fine, I will spend the time I can’t play here complaining.

The dailies change each day and are on a set cycle. My guess is that they’ve loaded the entire SET for the WEEK into the client already, so they don’t have to manually update the achievements each day. Messing with your system clock (which is what your client uses to display the time) probably confuses the client into displaying the WRONG dailies. You can’t progress those dailies because the server has its own clock and know to give achievements based on that clock.

Haha, oh wow. It actually works.

For February it is:
Monthly Dungeon Participation (3 tiers)
Monthly Event Participation (4 tiers)
Monthly Salvage Kit usages (4 tiers)
Monthly Completionist ‘’You completed your daily category multiple times in a month’’…?

And another fun fact, the monthlies for December 2013 include Tixx’s workshop. So I guess we can expect his return?
Edit: unless we have the same Christmas event until 2069 (didn’t bother checking further), I’ll just assume it’s set to a standard rotation

Wow, very cool. Now we need someone good at editing the wiki to go through and collect the full rotation of Dailies and the next several months of Monthlies and update the wiki pages.

We may have different achievements for December 2013. Anet may not know what they are going to be yet so still have the December 2012 achievements listed in the dat.

Do note that we generally make and update upcoming monthly achievements for upcoming months when we do updates. The achievements are currently set up for other months, but any of the monthly achievements beyond February are likely to change before we get to those months.

I think what he meant by what he said is that it’s bad software engineering practice, especially in an online game, to base anything off of the client clock (which you can’t trust). It’s like the old trial based apps back in the day using the client’s datetime for calculating expiration, you could just roll your clock back to avoid paying. Luckily they (Anet) at least calculate objective completion server-side.

And here I was already making up my schedule for my monthlies in 2040

All kidding aside, though, I guess this poses problems for the people who live in a timezone much later than that of the server? Meaning it’s past midnight for them, yet the daily achievements have not yet reset.

I figured as much. But looking farther ahead in the Monthlies may show any “standard” achievements not yet listed on the wiki. Same for the Dailies. Now that we know we can do this, lets get that wiki updated with a full list.

My system time is correct yet it is still showing up as Daily Veteran Slayer and Daily Crafter. If I can’t get it fixed I will loose out on laurels not only today but until it is fixed.

Edit: I had to get somebody to tell me what the dailies were and after doing them the game crashed and then I got the chest.

Try checking your system timezone…it might be showing what looks to be the right date/time, but with the wrong timezone setting it’d be completely off when compared to any fully specified datetime.

e.g. I’m in Melbourne Australia, my current timezone is GMT+11. If you had your clock set to a US date/time with an Australian timezone, it’d look correct because the display doesn’t show timezone normally…but the full time would actually be something like 16-19 hours out (ahead of when it actually was – you’d see tomorrows stuff today).
