“You can get 100 gold in a day or so….”

Really, please tell, it’s taken me since beta to get to 500 gold.

First of all you have to actually play.

That out of the way.

Mega bosses, hit them all or at least the popular ones…. wont take you long maybe a half an hour.

Hit up temple fights in orr.

You generally net several rares that way and sometimes exotics. As well as money.

Run a few Paths, your pick. Generally get around 2 gold for a path.

Craft your daily 500 crafts, they sell for over 4-5 gold.

Run around and grab your ori, and ancient nodes.

Craft some ori inscriptions, sell for around 8-9 gold.

Farm champs for awhile. They net alot of T6 mats that sell for a good amount and you often get 10 in a bag.

Theres alot more there to do but those are the most straight forward really.

But like I said you have to actually play.

Now I know what farmers and grinders, who claim they aren’t farming or grinding, consider “playing the game” and how long their “day” is.

The biggest ones are tarnished coast, blackgate, jade quarry and a few others I can’t recall right now. But unless you’re interested in WvW you could always guest. Deleting 4 80s is a bit drastic in my opinion, well it depends on whats worth more in your opinion, time or money.

It is drastic, but pretty much the whole reason I’m transferring is because I can’t find people in PvE, nor can I find them in WvW because nobody does WvW on my server. I thought about farming the 100+ gold I need to transfer, but I just don’t think it’s worth it.

what the hell!?It cost 100+gold just for a transfer?To think it used to be free.

and thank goodness it is not free. It was so bad for the health of the game when it was free. To note, it has been known since before release that world transfers were not going to be free for long, and that it was only free while they continued working on the guesting system, and to let the players to settle to where they want to be.

Seems like gw2 is the only game with issues with free world transfer :/.

Yet the vast majority of the MMOs that I can think of charge you to move to other servers

Yes its GW2

So tell me, list the MMOs that do not charge to server transfer?

My list of MMOs that I can think of off the top of my head that charge for server transfers:
WoW
Lotro
Tera
SWTOR
Age of Conan
Secret World
Warhammer Online
Aion

I can go on with more, but you get the idea. It is not “only” GW2 that charges for server transfers. I have played many many MMOs since 1999, and I have not played one yet that didn’t charge for server transfers.

You havent played Rift then.

Just because you played limited MMOs doesnt mean ALL of them are limited to what limited MMOs you played.

OMG, list of BORE is here!

Not to mention you did that SAME stuff for more than a year now rofl

I never actually played MMO that made you do stuff >1 year old to get new stuff.

And they wonder why people leave the game hihihihi

I did play Rift, from March 2011 to nearly then Middle of June 2011, and it looks like they introduced the server transfers a week or so after I quit playing that game. Unless you can name a lot more, Rift is looking like the exception, and still a far cry from Only Guild Wars 2 charging for server transfers.
