Guild Wars 2

Atleast not now and considering the amiunt of patches regarding this issue not in a long time. Mainly becasue of three reasons:

1.Buggy as it can be
None of the collections work properly. Certain items dont drop or certain events cant even trigger. Like giant shark at sibedon deeps.

2.obnoxius events
Some events that do work you have to wait for an eternity for them to initiate and since you always get put into a random map with different timers its like playing gamble.

3.Direct buy is cheaper
This may change over these couple of months but atleast at this time it stays true. I have yet to see this personally cause I havent even completed my first collection (see reason 1 and 2), but seeing a lot of people write about these kind of issues makes me feel obnoxius .

My result is that this system was implemented in the game clearly unfinished and has made me lose my hair. Its just been too much salt.

Precursor crafting was not meant to be cheaper or faster than buying it off the TP. It was meant to break the process down into pieces rather than just save 1000g and buy it. Now, people who would likely never save 1000g can work on the collection slowly and eventually make their way to the legendary.

It’s actually cheaper to buy it directly. I spent 1100g on precursor crafting for dusk when it’s 1000g in the tp. So if I farmed the mats, it would be better to sell them and buy dusk. It’s a huge disappointment at this point.
