Why couldn’t the achievement skins be unlocked like the Hall of Monuments? The current model of one-time choosing punishes people with alts. Why is the game so punishing of alts?

If you have 4-8 characters at 80 there’s just no way you’ll be able to have enough achievement points to get each toon at least a couple of Zenith weapons.

While you have to chose to unlock one weapon at each “chest” – once it’s unlocked you can take it out daily – that’s how I understood it. out as many as you like from it.

Edit: Corrected.

“Whose Charr is this?”- “Ted’s.”
“Who’s Ted?”- “Ted’s dead, baby. Ted’s dead.”

it is like HoM if you look at summary page of achi panel you’ll see “Unlocked Rewards” window and under it “Withdraw” you can take as many copies as you wish

That’s how the achievement skins work. Couldn’t you wait a few hours to see by yourself before making a topic complaining on an issue that doesn’t exist?

Well, out of fairness to them, the patch notes never really stated how the items are handled. Can’t blame them for asking!

But now that I think about it, asking wouldn’t do much good either since noone even has access to them yet! Until reset it’s all rumors!

Before complaining i think you should research further than just a quick patch note page

No because in his preview Dulfy expressively said that they works like HoM skins.

Unlock once by reaching the X number of AP, choose the skin, get it unlimited times.

Well, I myself haven’t complained, I’ve just assumed from the get go that we’ll get to choose from all weapons and they’ll be handled similarly to HoM skins! That said, where do you expect them to look? The best source should be the notes / GW2 sites. After that the forums, imo. Why else do they exist? =P

Now if there was a community section on the main site that pointed to other sources of possible info, I’d be with you on this one!

I think Zenith just wanted an excuse to open a thread about zenith weapons :P

You gotta open your achievement chest first and select the skin.

This thread can be closed now that the weapons have been revealed to function how I wanted them to function. I’m happy to be kittened and wrong for once.

Now please update Meteorologicus. It’s been nearly a year while the greatswords and all the other weapons except Minstrel got an update.

Hmm… I opened my chest just a few minutes ago, and all i got were a bunch of PVP skins. No Zenith skins at all.

More RNG?

What chest did you opened? The 1000 achievement point chest? Maybe you didn’t open your chest from yesterday or the day before?

It was a 500 achievement one. I opened the 100 one last night, the 500 one just now. I see a 1000 one on my UI screen, but I can’t seem to access it any way.

If you didn’t select a Zenith weapon from a list, you’re not yet at the 1000 AP level.

Zenith weapons are not in chests that you open from your inventory.

You get one per day so you will get the 1000 one tomorrow since you just opened the 500 one today.

I guess that makes sense. But how is everyone else getting the 1000 one today? This is only the second day of the patch.

In terms of daily reset time, it is the 3rd day of the patch.

That’s strange. I haven’t missed a daily in weeks. I’m not sure how I missed an achievement chest. I guess I must have, though.

You probably did your daily before the patch was released.

Well the design of how the rewards come is a bit… confusing. You get one skin when you select the reward, and no immediate indication of how to produce more. Once you figure it out it works very nicely. I’m not sure if the instructions were there from the start, but at least now the skin has a tooltip description that explains additional copies can be gained from achievement panel. I’m pretty sure a lot of people will still miss it though.

It depends on when you do your daily. The patch went live yesterday early afternoon. The 100 chest was given out to those that logged in after the patch. At reset 8PM EST the 500 chest was awarded to those that already got the 100 before reset. Then today after reset again at 8PM EST the 1000 chest was awarded to those that got the first 2.

It sounds like you must have gotten the 100 chest after reset yesterday, the 500 chest after reset today. In the same way you can do your daily after 8PM reset and then have to wait until reset the next day to do it again. I hope that makes sense.
