Guild Wars 2

I am a PvE only player and do not like being forced to play in WvW or PvP. Today the day-lies are onlky 4 PvE’s and a dungeon. I should not have to do a dungeon or PVP.

You don’t have to.

You also don’t have to do your daily today.

I do the day-lies for the laurels as well as achievement points

Here’s a larger thread with like-minded people for you: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Only-10-Daily-Achivements

Personal opinion: the daily mix is far better now and most of the time it completes itself without you noticing, unlike the previous illusion of choice we had.

thank you didn’t notice that thread

Unless my eyes are playing tricks there are 5 purely open world dailies today.
Recycler,
Reviver,
Events,
Kills,
Skill points.
So even someone ignoring most of the games content can still complete it.

There are always 5 you can’t do without PvP or a dungeon. You’re missing one somehow.

Per the wiki at http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Daily I believe the dailies today include:

Daily Events
Daily Recycler
Daily Kills
Daily Reviver
Skill Point Accumulator

All of those can be completed in PvE, no dungeons required. I was worried about it as well at first (and I still wish we had more choice) but they haven’t required us to do dungeons, WvW or PvP yet.

ugh blind omg I guess finals getting to me thanks for pointing that out

You have 5 you can do:

• Events
• Kills
• Salvaging
• Reviver
• Skill Point Accumulator

Doing them right now thanks guys sorry about that just frustrated.

It’s cool! To be honest though, you should try out some pvp or WvW. Maybe you might like it? Anyways, glad you can still get your daily the way you want to get it!

PvP players on the other hand have to do PvE in some way in order to get their dailies now.If anyone should be complaining its them.

that’s why i think each category should have 5 choices

I think the permanent balance for daily is going to be, out of a total of 10 daily options:

5 PvE
1 Dungeon / Fractal
2 PvP
2 WvW

This is the pattern I’ve seen each day since the patch came out. Without even focusing on getting the PvE dailies I end up with most of them in about an hour or so anyway. This system is nice, especially for new players, because it will always offer five very simple and straightforward achievements that players can accomplish for the daily rewards chest (and, more importantly, the laurel).

So, putting all the other post-update changes aside, I am very fond of this one. Simplified the process, made it more accessible to new players, and still left a solid half of the achievements as little bonuses for those players who enjoy PvP and WvW.

Hold up, you guys don’t want to do dungeons, WvW, or PvP? Why are you even playing this game then?

The cool thing is that most of the time at least a few of the PvE daily achievements will overlap with PvP. Today I got daily with the two PvP achievements, Reviver, Salvager and Kills. Eventually I switched to a new alt and got the other two PvE achievements with that character.

In my opinion, I think the current daily options are set up the way they are for the China release. I think they are doing this to kind of “push” this new group of players to try all of the avenues of the game. Kind of wish they could adapt the list from region to region. I hope it will have more options available within a month or so.

I’m not one to readily agree with mtp, but yeah. Don’t do them if you don’t like the options.

At the same time, I’m really disappointed with how congested they made Dailies since the updates. They didn’t tack on PvP, the pushed out some PvE in favor of PvP. That’s not ideal. I feel like there should be up to five more dailies including all types.

I’m just trying to put it in perspective. Of course I do all of the above. I don’t spam any of the game content, but each day I try to do a little of everything: a dungeon run or two, a couple PvP matches, ~30 minutes in WvW, complete a map, maybe even a fractal if I have time. In my opinion it helps keep content from getting stale. I’ve had days in the past where I’ve put four or five strait hours into PvP and, despite a 70% win ratio, by the end I was a seething ball of rage anyway (mesmers on Skyhammer…)

Because there are other things to do.

I’ve been noticing the balance recently has been something like: 3 pvp, 3 wvw, 2 pve, 2 anywhere. which compels you to play either pvp or wvw, which is not what dailies should be doing. As was previously said, dailies should be obtained naturally from just playing how you want to play, and that is not always the case atm.
I think the distribution should be something more like: 2 pvp, 2 wvw, 2 pve, 4 anywhere

For fun.

Hi there!
