Guild Wars 2

Hey, so, I’m betting that this has been posted about before, but after a while, I’ve ended up with so many level 20 scrolls from birthdays and am starting to get my first 30 scrolls, and I’m wondering if there’d ever be the possibility of trading them for spirit shards when used on a higher level character, or at least a level 80 one.

See, I understand the idea of them, being able to get a character, likely a new one to level 20 or 30 quickly, but here’s the thing… I have 30 characters. I don’t think I need more. I’ll probably end up with a few more because I have a very active imagination and enjoy the roleplay community quite a bit, but I don’t need whole stacks of these tomes, you know? But I would LOVE more spirit shards. Or at least something else to do with them that feels worthy of a birthday gift. I know it creates the incentive for a new character and I’m not criticizing that at all, but eventually they’re just going to get tossed when a birthday rolls around and is overall less exciting. At least the birthday boosters can be useful still.

That would be great. I have a level 80 of each class now, thanks in part to the birthday scrolls, but I have leftover scrolls, which will be even more leftover scrolls as those characters age. Unless I buy a character slot for key farming, they’re just going to waste.

Exactly, and if every character gets a level scroll for EVERY birthday in the future—say you don’t get another character, that’s 9 every year. A waste. I myself’ll be getting at least 30 each year… oh boy…

I used them for key runs and hung on to a few for new toons. I wouldn’t mind converting them to something else and tomes is an obvious choice.

If anything, I don’t think they would allow them to be converted into tomes, lest the item is negated completely. At least, not 20 tomes. If I could as least convert it to like five tomes, I’d be satisfied. And if I could choose between a number of tomes, or at least something other than another level 20/30 scroll, I’d be fine with that. ANYTHING else would be good at this point, really.

Maybe i’ll keep them next birthday If so.
