Guild Wars 2

Hey all!

I’m pretty much a newbie to GW2, but I’m keeping up with updates, threads, etc. hoping to get a better understanding of the whole game. Still have a lot of learning to do!

I am only a level 18 Norn Guardian, so I have a way to go. But, I have noticed that when I’m walking around the map that events will appear when I approach them. So, I do the event, lots of fun, etc… Well, the next day I go back to the area and the event reappears. Sometimes, I’ve done 6-7 events and I am not 100% sure if I completed that one… And then I tested it. It definitely appears a couple times, and I have a chance to receive a “Gold, Silver, or Bronze” each time.

Is this happening to anyone else, and if so… Is there anyway to get this to stop? I want to do as many events as possible, but I don’t want to miss any, or repeat one several times because I don’t remember if I had done it or not.

Uh, this is the system.
Events repeat.

Hearts don’t.

It is designed that way. You get a gold/silver/bronze based on your participation, tiny bits of money, and karma.

Karma is a currency used to buy overpriced. subpar gear for skins. You are best saving all your karma for level 80 as it stands right now.

Thanks! Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything. I know Heart events don’t repeat.

I’m not going to get in trouble or anything if I accidentally repeat some of these events a few times, though right? I don’t want ANet to think I’m farming the events or something just because they happen to appear while I’m passing through.

Sorry for the newb questions.

You shouldn’t. That would defeat the purpose of the events really!

yeah events repeat a lot (there are other players out there), when you see one either decide to do it again (for drops for example) or keep going.

If at some point you feel “underleveled” repeating events is a great way of geting xp and loot.

Okay.

Thanks guys for clearing that up for me!
