Guild Wars 2

So just wondering if the system is time gated when paying out rewards? If so how long?

I was doing the Melandru event chain in Cursed Shore and each of the events rewarded me with the ancient bone as it should have but if two events were completed in quick concession of each other then the latter event wouldn’t reward you with a bonus material.

I can understand why this is in place…To stop people farming events without sticking it out and flooding the market with materials but could people confirm the times for us? For future reference or feedback etc. So far I only found events that are completed within two minutes of each other to not reward you on the latter events completion. Which I personally find quite reasonable.

Overall I’m very much enjoying myself running around some of the original farming maps with a group of people doing events.

I didn’t realize that it could be a time gated thing. I thought it was just a random chance. The first event I did in Fireheart Rise didn’t reward me with a map bonus, while the next event did.

Valid point, I will do some more testing in the next couple of hours and see what drop rates compared to events are.

So I did another twenty events all of which successful. Eight of which rewarded ancient bones and one a giants eye. Seems totally random…Now I’m curious if magic find effects drop rates…

I noticed that you get a reward every second event, but that could just be random or coincidence

Guessing its random unless diminishing returns has something to do with it.

I still managed to get 20 ancient bones in an hour plus some other tier six mats such as giants eye and bloods with heavy moldy bags along with the bonus drop.

Although farming gold then buying from the trading post may still be the way to go for efficiency this will certainly give a nice change of pace to ‘earning’ a legendary.
