Guild Wars 2

Really? Who’s idea was this?

The “rewards” are so niche, that a large demographic of players will just have no ineterst in even participating.

There are no basic rewards for the participant in the form of drops/exp/karma/etc so you are literally just farming empty shells for some tokens at the end….at least when you go to chuck e cheese the games are fun, THEN you get tickets….not “here play whack-a-mole for 30 minutes, wait, then play more whack-a-mole for another 30 minutes”

And to put the cherry on top, you have to PAY even more for the “reward”? So I can spend several hours gathering tokens, then pay up front another 10 gold for some of the items? really?

Iono, this just feels weird, it feels like they are trying to steal your time, and add a gold sink onto it for good measure. I wouldn’t have an issue if the events were fun, but they are just “throw bombs, break shields, throw bombs, break shields”

I enjoy the effort in the Silverwastes events, escorting, defending, having something worthwhile happen due to your and your allies efforts, all the while feeling grand and having a sense of victory. This event just feels hollow.

It doesn’t matter if they give you 10g because it’s impossible for the average player to get 450 blooms in the first place…

I grinded AND paid 10g for the thoughtless and selfless potions when they were released, the fact that they re-released them should have bumped the price to 25g.

It doesn’t matter how much they cost because no rational person will ever get 450 blooms. They could cost 3,000,000 gold and be just as unobtainable as they are at 10g.

it’s tedious enough to even get the tokens for one let alone bumping the price to 25g.
10g is fine, this is coming from someone who has both potions.

I’m not saying 10g isn’t enough, I’m saying people should be happy the item is back with the same amount of grind as before. Instead of all this hate and rage lmao.

It’s not the same amount of grind. We only have 4 days to do it this time, but last time it was available for a month, so you could spread it out over 28 days.

Idk I got it within 2-3 days grinding. If people really wanted them they’d grind for it. I’m probably gonna try get a few halo’s so I don’t have to keep transferring my potions.

The only way you can get it this time is if you have all day every day for the whole event to farm up the tokens required. You can’t even get “a few,” there’s hardly enough time to get a single potion’s worth of blooms.

The grind for the potions was significantly easier and less tedious during the Attack on Lion’s Arch event than this event. All you had to do was run around a map once a day for a few days and you could get both potions.

The potion are not even so great. I have both from early event with orphans or what it was called. Not sure why player want to spend all of weekend and gold to get. You have to keep in bag to use and always remember to use if you want to show. Not very good because not part of wardrobe. I keep mine in bag and always forget to use. Not worth all this time to grind if ask me.
