I don’t have HoT (yet). What happens if I complete an achievement that would award a Mastery Point? Does it get banked for later when I buy HoT?

Yes. You just won’t have access to them until you purchase HoT.

Yep. You won’t be able to use them, and I don’t think they even show up, but you’ll still be earning them.

I pre-purchased HoT and had about 30 Tyria mastery points on the first day because I’d already completed the achievements for them. Of course then I had to earn enough XP to be able to spend them.

The best way to imagine it is that the game upon HoT checks for those achievements and then awards you mastery points. It can be disconcerting because usually the reward is our “receipt” for doing something typically so it’s only natural to be suspicious. However, in this case, the receipt comes in form of you having earned credit for the achievement.

The interface is frustrating because once you have earned a mastery point for an achievement, the achievement no longer displays the MP being available for it, leaving you scratching your head on where did they come from. So don’t panic. It’s all there.

For once you have tasted flight you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skywards,
for there you have been and there you will long to return.
