Guild Wars 2

With the Queen’s Jubilee we can encounter bosses in the pavilion which needs some above-average tactics to succeed. Normally a player needs a lot of tries to gain enough experience to succeed on all achievement challenges which will need up to 6 tickets a try. But there is a problem: You gain tickets relative slowly but need normally a huge amount of them. This results in investing over 90% of the time on ticket grinding instead of doing the challenges. If you are unlucky you will need to full-time-grind until the event ends just to get enough tickets which looks very asia-grind-like to me.

you can buy them from a vendor

buy sprockets off the tp- trade them for tickets at the reps in the pavilion.
No grinding needed

And if you’re feeling particularly frugal, you can easily get enough sprockets to buy the tickets just by spending 5 minutes on the random spawn bosses in the arena, each of which gives ~15 sprockets. Since you only need 30 sprockets for 5 tickets, and the bosses spawn two at a time, that’s only a few minutes minutes total. Not what I’d call an absurdly long grind.

I just laugh at the title. The OP has no idea how bad “Asia-Grind” can be.

I know, I laughed too lol

In other games there’s this boring grind to get to the fun stuff…

Okay.

Yeah, but at least in many of the “Asia-Grind” titles you can set up a simple autohotkey script, and just check on your progress before you go to work in the morning =D

I’m trying to think, the last thing I “played” like that was Voyage Century Online, I’d say 85% of my characters life was scripted, with about 15% of me actually behind the keyboard lol.
