Guild Wars 2

There are a couple cosmetic items I would like to get, but I’m frankly not all that excited about the X-Mas content. What have you folks found to be the most efficient path to getting the items you want very quickly?

Thanks for your help.

The fastest way to get presents ( I assume that’s what you mean since you don’t state what you are after) is either choir bell or the jumping puzzle (you need to be good at that JP to do it fast enough every time)

Jumping puzzle awards 10 gifts in about 2 minutes, assuming you don’t fall off

Every 15 successful runs gets you an extra +5 personalized wintersday gifts

Make or buy a bunch of gold, then buy presents on the trading post.

tl;dr

• JP is best if you can 7+ runs per half-hour
• Choir bells is second best
• Tixx’ Infinirarium is better than choir, only if you can finish the instance in 12 or so minutes.
• Converting karma to gifts is financially inefficient (at the higher costs, it’s under 2s/thousand-karma). However, it’s the quickest method of converting karma and of obtaining gifts, assuming you have > 200,000 karma to spend each day.

Alternatively, consider other farms, more lucrative and/or more fun for you. Bell Choir, at 120 gifts per hour is worth about 7g/hour. You can increase that to ~12g/hour by completing the JP 11-12 times per 30 minutes.

It depends on the cosmetic item. If you were more specific about what you’d like to attain, the forum may be able to offer tips for acquiring the items.

Good luck.

What Black Iris Flowers.3418 is the best choice if you can master a path. If you can find a instance with few people or get stuck in a bugged path you can get 1:30-1:35 per run. I’d say grind the fecal matter out it until you can successfully complete it almost everytime then start learning the shortcuts.
