Guild Wars 2

I understand the OP’s complaints though because Anet has seemed very adverse to rewarding players to even a moderate level when it comes to drop-rates or anything like that so far, so everyone saying “YOU DIDN’T HAVE TO BUY IT AND SPEND YOUR KARMA RARARA” should relax a little :P…because he does have a point.

60-70k karma. 2 Mini pets, 130k karma in items (using buffs), 1g 27s from the junk, 17g in Lodestones. 32 obsidian shards. I forget the rest, wish i would have taken a pic.

I tried it once and that was enough for me. I got a taste of karma and 2 unidentified junk items, a total waste of good karma. They should at least put in one item of some real value and I would not mind getting it.

nothing else to use karma on? 4 exotic armors.. put in forge-sell obtained item? i have not done that with karma armor but i have with my excessive amount of dungeon token stuffs. 4 focuses only 840 tokens=4 gold for a pearly focus thinger…
correct me if i’m wrong but.. can’t you do that with karma armor?

Counting the karma from the boxes I got 157 total boxes. From those 157 boxes I got:
1 charged lodestone
1 molten lodestone
1 onyx lodestone
24 obsidian shards
and 641 unidentifiable objects

So about 8 gold worth of stuff for karma that I wasn’t going to use for anything anyway, so it’s a pretty good deal for a useless (after a while) currency.

How are you all getting anything out of those boxes besides karma drinks?

Out of all the boxes I’ve bought, I’ve never gotten anything better than different karma drinks.

I don’t see the point in wasting karma. Who knows what will be introduced in the future that could potentially take tons and tons of karma and will be actually useful.

Spending karma to get karma drinks that don’t even equal the karma I spent is not working for me. But, at least some players are finding them useful.

Buy a ton of boxes with karma. Use every Karma buff possible before opening the dropped karma items. Open karma items, and there’s a good chance you get a huge chunk of karma back, sometimes more than you spent. Then do as you wish. My choice was to buy more chests lol and had fun, was like Christmas.

Personally it took about 6 boxes before i realized it was a scam, it was the last 6 boxes too.
That will really help open world and bring more people to it….another useless RNG box..

You are doing it wrong then..

I mean READ above you. I did about 25 boxes. Karma with a karma boost was a wash and got about 7 gold worth of stuff plus some mats I could use.

You opened 6 and quit.. Sorry man, but don’t be the end all of how it works when your sample size is so small.

I’d like to know what the OP was planning to buy with all his karma that makes him feel robbed by its use on the jewelry box.
