Guild Wars 2

Recently we got this update note:

Bug Fix:
Fixed a bug in which players did not receive the intended first-time and daily rewards upon completing the Mad King’s Clock Tower.

I did the jp before the reset – got 25 Trick or Treat bags and a choice of 1 Candy Corn Cob, personalized bags or chests. An hour after the reset, I tried it again and got the usual 5 bags as it used to be. Other players on reddit confirmed that as well.

When does the daily reward reset? And what should it contain?

yeah same, its bugged still for me i got it once with the choice of gear or cobb then 5 bags after reset

20 empyreal fragments, 5 bags, 1 consumable

Sooo it’s still bugged?

Is there no Halloween gear piece this year?

Same did it last night before reset and just did it now and standard loot.

I just did it for the first time since the update. It seems it may be fixed as I got a Mad King Chest.

I didn’t get a “your choice” chest either today…
Maybe that chest was a one time reward? If so, the tower is back to “eh why even do it?”
And if it’s just another bug, then horray, another day with lost loot

EDIT: The Mad King’s Chest, with the candy corn cob, is once per acc, once per Season. So the 20 Empyreal Fragments are our daily reward… 8’DD not even 50 to feed the star…

it’s a yearly reward, not daily. aka: once per event.

I thought you were only supposed to get the Mad King’s Chest the first time you did it, not once per day.

Why did they even write they fixed the first time and daily reward, if it remains unchanged?

No one will do the jp to get 5 bags.

Probably because some people weren’t getting any rewards upon completion of the JP.

Didn’t read a single comment of someone getting nothing at all.

But apparently you shouldn’t get your hopes up if they fix something.

Well they fixed the daily rewards, before you only got 5 bags, no you get a whole 20 emphymeral fragments for your first try a day ;D That’s the super awesome daily reward x’D

lets do the maths…. first run thru the tower = 10 bags max. subsequent 2 successful runs = 5 bags each. you can only make the run 5 times per 15 minute period, for a total of 55 bags per 15 min run, “IF” you were successful on EVERY SINGLE RUN. You might make a total of 225 bags an hour. You can get 55 bags in less then 10 minutes following a zerg totaling roughly 335 bags per hour at MINIMUM for an hour run. Now typically you see 2-3 successful runs in the tower on average(unless your really good at jump puzzles, and I mean top level good). this averages 100-140 bags an hour for the normal joe.

Anyone else see a reason to be in the clocktower? Cuz it isn’t very comparable to the ascent or the lab by my calculations…

Yeah, last year it seemed worthwhile to run the clock tower, this year not at all. Maybe if they were personalized bags
