Guild Wars 2

So now that the exp bar has been replaced by the mastery bar, how do you get hero points/spirit shards once you’ve done map completion? I still haven’t fully unlocked my elite specialization tree, but I’m not seeing how to get more points to further unlock it.

Grind XP and do Hero Challenges.

Edit for accuracy

Each hero challenge in New maps gives 10 points you need 400.

But that doesn’t work. I’ve already done map completion, so all the hero challenges are already done. The XP bar is for mastery points now.

Oh yeah, it’s just Hero Challenges now. My bad.

So… I’m stuck then? Not able to finish my elite skills?

The devs said there should be enough hero point challenges to knock out 400 in the new area alone, unless I read that wrong. If you’re a WvW player you’ll likely struggle for those points but you’re not going to hit a wall where you can’t finish them.

I agree. It really is.
