Guild Wars 2

I can’t say enough about how much I love the new structure for daily achievements and the way it supports the “play your way” philosophy.

I was wondering, do we have any word on whether the same structure will be applied to monthly achievements eventually? Getting to choose whether you wanted to do dungeons instead of WvW kills or events instead of fractals would be awesome and, I think, make a lot of people happy.

We can only hope. +1

I believe that that would be what the check-boxes within the monthly tab suggest.

That’s what I’m hoping too! But it’s hard to tell, since you can use the check-boxes on other achievements, too, like mini-pet collector or slayer… Is it just a choice of what you can display in your achievement tracker? Or is it a hint of great things to come?

I’ve been asking that question since the announcement of selectable dailies. No replies.

The tool tip that popped up when you clicked on your daily list clearly said dailies and monthlies may be completed by doing a subset of the quests. Obviously not this month.

There are clues that seem to be pointing to that being the case as mentioned in this topic, and I certainly hope it is.

I have yet to complete a monthly in this game. There’s always 1 category that blocks me. October it was the candy thing (I’d rather keep the candy for crafting than waste it), November I think it was something WvW related as I don’t do WvW / PvP at all, December it was fractals, January it was… I dunno, for some reason I’ve completely blanked it out, maybe WvW again. This month it’ll probably be Dungeon Runs.

I’ve never done a dungeon before, been waiting to get to level 80 to do so with all the complaints I’ve read about noobs being terrible in dungeons and people getting kicked from groups and all that. Figure I’ll at least give myself a high level to remove one possible bad point to counteract the fact that I won’t know what I’m doing. And given the fact that I’m playing 6 characters its taking a long while. I’m finally to the point where I have 3 characters that are 75+ (and one is even 79) but that still leaves me only 2 days counting today to try and gear up and do 5 dungeon runs. I doubt its going to happen.

If we get selectable monthlies maybe I can finally complete one. That’d be nice.
