Guild Wars 2

Is it just me, or do we no longer get a daily laurel for completing the dailies?

you get one every time you open the daily log in chest

Not every time each day. Here is the daily login reward chart:

But right now you can get one for every Winterday daily completion.

And once WintersDay is gone, then we cannot get a daily laurel anymore?

Not everyday.

But look at the link JustTrogdor posted. It will tell you when and how many laurels you will get.

Again, here is the schedule for laurels you get just for logging in. No they are not daily.

Nobody knows it so far. Maybe LW-specific Dailes will be introduced. Maybe only festivals will offer such Dialies. We have to wait and see.

And those of us that are “waiting” to earn laurels to unlock things, cannot afford to be missing out on a daily laureal. So after this even, I do not want to waste time “waiting to see what is going to happen”.

Why do they make these rediculous changes and don’t give a second thought to those people that may need these items?

Why do people ask questions about the patch when it is obvious that they haven’t even bothered to read the patch notes?

Third time’s the charm.

You can get up to 55 laurels in 28 days just by logging in.

On the 28th day that you log in, choose the Laurels option. You will end up with 24-27 MORE laurels that you would under the old system.

I still think 1 a day + monthlies was better. Especially when you’re trying to craft ascended things, and you need 5 per recipe. It’s only a5day wait, not longer as it is now.

Old system: In 31 consecutive days you get max 41 laurels.
New system: In 28 consecutive days you get max 55 laurels.

In my humble opinion, the new login system is better.

There is no reward for being the first person to do something.

Take a deep breath and realize that after one set of 28 days goes by and you choose the Laurels option that you’ll remain ahead of the game unless you spend your laurels on random things instead.

Geez, Rentapest, would you actually READ the links given to you. If you had, you would note that you get 1 laurel on day 2 login, then 10, yes 10 laurels on day 7 login.

That’s a total of 11 laurels in 7 days of logging in, which is 4 more than you would have gotten if you had been doing old dailies for 7 days.

That will actually make your crafting job easier.

And then there’s this:

Mileinnor.7125:

Old system: In 31 consecutive days you get max 41 laurels.
New system: In 28 consecutive days you get max 55 laurels.

Last I checked, 55 is more than 41….and in 3 days less time.

Imagine that? But you would have known this already if you had bothered to read any of the links that were given in this thread.

Wow… why does ANET even bother posting patch notes when the majority simply choose to come here to QQ about it without even reading?

Sadly, this seems to be the case with most of the whines about the patch.

At the risk of it being mentioned in the patch notes, is there any way to open both the daily quest UI choices and the daily login (to mouse over upcoming rewards) other than the first time you login each day?

Somewhat unrelated, but is there any reason to not pick the 20 laurels on the 28th day? The other options seems very lackluster and 20 laurels can be exchanged for about 30g in T6 mats. The closest option is to get lucky with vision crystal + 2 damask bolts (29g~).

After looking at the list I wonder how they even come up with this crap. They say they dumbed stuff down because its to complicated. Now they change something that was one per day and change it to 1 on day 2, 10 on day 7, 2 on day 9, 3 on 16, 15 on 21, and 4 on 23. Its the most random and complicated thing I have ever seen. My OCD looks at it and makes me want to scream. What do they do, throw darts at a dart board to come up with this crap. Why can’t it be one per day and have a bonus on the 28th day. Why over complicate it.

Its getting to the point where I check on this game just to get my mind blown.

6 levels not too bad too if your leveling up alts and you already have crazy high laurels. I guess they could just say 20 laurels on the last day but where the fun in that its best to have a chose there then not having one.

1 laurel on the second day of first week, 2 laurels on the second day of the second week, 3 laurels on the second day of third week, 4 laurels on the second day of fourth week, and then 10 bonus laurel on the 7th day of the first week, 15 bonus laurels on the 7th day of third week, and 20 laurels for the finisher.

I see a pattern there.

Jski, you can never have enough gold. This is Gold Sink Wars 2 man.

Most other mmorpgs I have played had the same sort of theme.

Mileinnor.7125:

GW2 has next to no real gold sink compared to other games lol. Laurels > gold and if all your doing for the 28 day is going after gold i think the +2% gold find is better in the span of 28 days.

Well, I don’t have much experience in other MMO games, but don’t you think all the collection achievements are gold sinks? Black lion weapons are gold sinks. The option to convert gold to gem is a gold sink. Ascended equipments are gold sinks. Legendary weapons are gold sinks. None of these gives any significant advantage over players who do not pursue them.

Though are not true gold sinks because you do not need to spend your gold to get them to play the game. GW2 main gold sink is way points and using the TP (TP taxes.) I am talking about gold sinks that you MUST have gold of some type to keep playing the game “right.” The option gold sinks are just that you can chose to use them or not and not be better or worst off for the most part.

Not yet. Hopefully we get that ability after the new year. Once the old system is completely removed. We still have the Monthly for one last month currently.

If you’re going for the legendary, the Legendary materials one could be useful if you haven’t finished your collection of obsidian shards and/or mystic clovers.

If you primarily used the Daily to level up low level alts, the Tomes of Knowledge one would be useful.

But yea, I think the most useful is the laurels if only for the conversion to things that could be sold.

Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation. I wonder why did they remove the repair fees?

I’ve seen some people say they have over 100 laurels because they have nothing to spend them on. I assume the other options were put in for those people, so they have a choice. Or maybe they just couldn’t decide what to put in the chest.

I have 450 laurels. And I still find the 20 laurel the best option. Not a legendary weapon chaser, so not particularly in demand for obsidian shards.
