Guild Wars 2

Thread topic, I’m curious what actually qualifies you for credit in large group events (such as the “Repair the Bridge” centaur event loop). Is it purely based on damage done to enemies? Or does reviving/buffing and healing people around you also count towards credit for event completion?

Damage or completing an objective as far as I know, if your just buffing or healing you won’t get anything.

Sadly I figured this might be the case. Very disappointing, makes events even more mindless when anything beyond smacking things goes unrewarded. Spam that 1 key as hard as possible or leave, sigh seems like every time I look into something that seems great about this game I’m met with the realization that it was only done kitten.

I usually spend quite some time ressing, buffing controlling etc when I do events- especially if it is a large event.
Yesterday I got in on the tail end of Claw and literally spent the entire time getting people back up- I think I hit him once.
I still got gold.
