Guild Wars 2

Guildmembers noticed their achievement point rewards earned for the beta aren’t being transferred to their base account. Is this a bug or will they show up after the weekend? They can be seen on the beta character but not in the base account characters.

As with all other rewards earned by beta characters these achievements will probably not be saved for your main account. These achievements are probably just there to guide you through the content and to get some extra mastery point in order to test the mastery system.

Everything you do on a beta does not affect your normal account whatsoever. Can’t be in a guild, can earn ap etc.

All ap (and loot, and progress) earned by Beta characters is not saved on main account/chars.

Though there are 5 ‘pure beta’ achievements, wich seem to imply that you can get them permanent by participating in beta. (Any others you cannot copy, say ‘Flame legion slayer’, getting it on beta, will not transfer to main account.

I know that nothing is being transferred. But I am talking purely about the 5 AP you can do by doing events such as the one where you have to kill a 100 frogs. But I’ve seen other threads and I think I understand now that they are meant as a guideline, rather than something that will stick after the weekend? Question is then why my base account can even see those achievementpoints, without them being able to get fullfilled?

Ah yes, that was what I was talking about!
All the people I spoke to in game thought they were genuine AP (and so did I)

My guess is that it’s the same client which is why.

I assuming that while we don’t get those Beta AP on our main account for now but once the expansion is up, we will get them assuming we complete any of them.

Thanks for all the answers, I just informed my guild so they would stop grinding for the points!

Tell them that they still get mastery points from them. It’s still worth doing if you’ve used all of your existing ones and you still want to try out more masteries.

Ah cool, I didn’t know that! Thanks

I tested the beta achievements, and at the moment they do not transfer to main account (non beta characters). So even those are ‘not safed’ at the moment, though it’s weird then why they are in main account shown in first place.
