Guild Wars 2

Stop it, just please stop it.
I know you want people to buy extra storage space.
But please enough is enough.

Delete them. Problem solved.

Yup, I will.
But this “Please, please play PvP. here’s tokens and gear for you!”
is getting extremely tiresome.

It’s actually kind of discouraging people who don’t want to WvW from participating in it. You can buy cheap PvE gear of any stat you want with it, or make easy Gifts of battles for legendary weapons.

I 100% agree with the discouraging part. My gift of battle (pre-patch) is now totally obsolete because everyone now has one. Although, the discount with ascended gear is nice

Something to keep in perspective, only those people with thousands of achievement points that are getting a retroactive achievement chest daily are the ones receiving stacks of badges. And if you look at the achievement leaderboards, only the upper 10% of players have gotten more than 8/10 chests.

Once the achievement chests are caught up, and under normal circumstance, the vast majority of players are only looking at maybe one achievement chest per month. Badges at that rate are much more reasonable and very useful for players in WvW that want to gear a new character, change the build on another, or pick up siege blueprints.

Consider the long term and how the system will work months down the line or for new players instead limiting your scope to the current condition based on very unique circumstances.

You do realize, that once everyone is caught up with the retrospective AP chests, people will get these way way WAY less often. It’s just the initial back log that makes it seem like a lot.

I personally welcome the free exotic armor for my alts. Pls, keep them coming!

The Ascended gear.
Yup, i worked for that.
I have all ascended on my main.

But why, why do I have so many Badges of Honor now?
Anet, is this what you think I need?
I’m thoroughly enjoying the PvE aspect of your game.
If you want to have more people PvP-ing, why not make it more rewarding.
Instead of giving us Badges and achi PvP gear in the hope that we’ll PvP more.

I don’t like to fish much.
Throw a 1000 dollar fishing pole at me, nope, I won’t enjoy it more.

no u

Tunney.6475:

What you see as an attempt to get people into WvW I see as a friendly gesture to those who want a Legendary but don’t like WvW.

“no u”

I have no idea what this means.
If you can’t spare the time to type out your thoughts,
It’s not up to me to decipher it.

T

“What you see as an attempt to get people into WvW I see as a friendly gesture to those who want a Legendary but don’t like WvW.”

Well, yes.

That may be what they’re going for.

T

Trade them for siege equipment then sell the siege on the tp. It’s free coin.

Did you only get badges and PvP gear? Your chest must have been broken. You should contact support.

“Something to keep in perspective, only those people with thousands of achievement points that are getting a retroactive achievement chest daily are the ones receiving stacks of badges.”

Sry, i missed you post there.

So yes, I’m one of those..
I log on and there’s a new chest.
And….. another stack of badges.
And new PvP items.
Anet, I do not PvP!
I guess that’s my point.

Why not give me tokens i can use for PvP or not?
But nooo, it’s Pvp or nothing.

T

Don’t open the pvp chest then, as they stack. Or you can delete the chest outright.

also, the pvp skins you get from them are soul bound for some reason.

“Did you only get badges and PvP gear?
Your chest must have been broken. You should contact support.”

No, i didn’t only get badges and PvP gear.
But some of the chest’s content was, and is, PvP only.

Why not reward the player by giving him/her a choice of
how to spend the achievement points?

T

I think you are missing the point. The chests give players a little bit of everything for all aspects of the game. Just because you will never play PvP doesn’t mean every PvE player doesn’t do PvP as well. Many players participate in PvE, PvP and WvW. For those that don’t do a certain part of the game they can just delete those rewards.

I will never do PvP as well, at least I’m fairly sure I won’t. I stored the skins away as they don’t take up my bank spaces. The other stuff I just stashed because I’m maxed on bank slots and had some space. If I run out of space I’ll delete them. The chest rewards are meant to provide a bit of everything across the board to accomodate players in all aspects of the game.

Thanks for the badges Anet! Please keep them coming!

This thread is pointless. Your like a kid crying cause u have too many lollipops in your mouth. Delete them if you dont need it problem solve! Now close this kitten thread… btw whiners like you will always complaint no matter how good is the update..

“I think you are missing the point. "

I’m sorry, but that i my point.
Why not have a choice between, say Gems, Gold or Boosts of your choice?
Why does it have-to-be Badges of Honor which only apply to a specific aspect of the game?

Would you be happy if there was Epic armour i these chests
and you could only choose between +dmg against spiders or +dmg against ettins?
And no way to change those stats?

T

You know. If the achievement chest didn’t contain badges or spvp skins, you wouldnt be complaining. If you don’t like it, then either delete the chest, or deposit them.

People will always find a way to complain about free stuff.

“no matter how good is the update..”

Well. it’s not an update as such.
It’s achievement rewards.

T

When someone gives you a GIFT, you don’t have a CHOICE. Be polite and say thank you, and move on.

I don’t understand this thread..

Badges of Honor give you so much you can buy ascended gear… you can buy all types of Exotic gear… You can buy siege and sell/donate it for your servers WvW effort.. 500 badges gives you the Gift for a legendary

Why would anyone be mad about getting badges? its almost made my head explode

Wish I could give the badges away, 10 stacks is too much and I’m sure there are those with a lot more. Please stop.

I hope your next chest gives you a potion that turns your character into a donkey.

You can give them away. Delete them and pretend you gave them to someone.

Lol! Problem solve….

“People will always find a way to complain about free stuff.”

Still, we wondered from the day of release what the achi points were for.

It’s not complaining about free stuff.
It’s having no choice. In most other ways you do have a choice in this game.
Anyone who’s ever completed a story part knows this.

Why not have some sort of generic token reward
instead of this PvP thing?
Even i’f you’ve never set foot in any WvW or PvP map, you’ll get these.
Why? Is that fair to the PvP-ers who actually put some effort in?

Where’s that useless moderator at? The thread has been concluded!

Ok, at this point I’m thinking this is just a troll post.

Gold is your generic token..which,………… wait for it…you can get via badges. Tbh I think this is pure troll thread as no one can be that thick headed can they?

Sorry, but, problem not solved, because, I know more are coming. If I could delete them and know they would stop coming I would do it in a heartbeat.

Just convert into 3 or 4 WvW exo bracers (option to +1 mystic stone) and throw it into the toilet and sell the resulting non account bound exo for at least 1G 90s.

“Gold is your generic token..which,………… wait for it…you can get via badges. "

Tell me how I can exchange the badges to gold, I really don’t know.

Good grief.. I hope you are just trolling. I’m pretty sure you are. It isn’t like you are going to get these chests every day after you reach the last one for your current achievement point level. Delete, when you get the next chest, delete, repeat for each chest. You are acting like clicking two keys to delete an item is some major task.

If you are not trolling I hope you get the same potion as the one I suggested for the OP.

They just told you. And I’ll bet you’ll still complain about the free Badges.

I wish Anet would stop giving me free gold. I don’t need handouts! Seriously, delete the badges if you hate them so much. Takes like two seconds of your time. Geez.

You can always buy siege with them, and then sell the siege.

A. Its not free you have to get a certain amount of AP to get said rewards.
B. Not as if the handouts came at the expense of other players.

Two words: Mule Toons.

Siege is not worth as much as exo bracers into the Mystic Forge in G.
