Guild Wars 2

I’m now reaching again half a million Karma by playing normally and without doing any hardcore karma grinding.

I’ve spent all the Karma needed for my legendary (not yet complete thanks to the current insane prices of TP, but that’s another story). I’ve found my favorite equipment look from what is offered to me and here I am with half a million karma, sleeping on my character.

Another character of mine is doing really fine as a cook to produce food for all my characters, so I don’t need to teach cook to my main char.

Now, what’s left to do with Karma? Spend it recklessly in Obsidian Shards to get random T6 mats? Once I have 250, 500 or 1000 of each again, what’s next? Craft food for other people? I don’t wanna play the TP game.

Don’t get me wrong: Karma is a great tool needed to (try to) slow the legendary grind, but beyond that, I really fail to see what’s it purpose. I love this game: I haven’t spent so much time in one game since Fallout 2, but is it Anet’s goal that regular players (read: non-hardcore) like me hit the barrier?

So what? Is this all you can do with Karma? There are countless gold sinks in this game. Where are the Karma ones?

Well, I use my karma on my main to buy skins for my other characters that I don’t want the stats for. I have 2 toons in some God armor just for the looks…transmuted to armor the other toons can wear. Other than that, not really sure what purpose Karma serves late/end game.

Obsidian shards for legendaries, I guess. Cooking mats (not in any great amount, but lemon bars are much cheaper than omnoms!)

Fair enough, but my lack of desire for a legendary makes me forget they are used for Leg mats. And yeah, the cooking is good too!

Buy exotics > throw in MF > sell unbound/unsoulbound exotic? One way to turn your karma in to gold .-.

You can bet there will be new skins out in future updates, so just sit on it for now, you never know when something cool will come along you’ll want. Can always take up cooking too and buy nothing but cooking mats all day long lol.
