Now, don’t get me wrong, the mastery system is AMAZING its awesome, all the specialization are great. My only concern(and this may be because of glitched events) but its fairly hard to get up masteries,it took me a full day to get a glider(granted we cant do dungeons for exp to the masteries) I just wanted to post it out there in case it does get seen by arena net, and maybe this feedback will be seen!

Why we cannot do dungeons to level up masteries?

You can do dungeons to level up the “Central Tyria” Masteries. The Maguuma Masteries only level up from XP earned in Heart of Thorns areas.

Now of course, if there will be dungeons in Heart of Thorns, you could use those.

I doubt it. There has been no word up to this point and Colin throws up a brick wall anytime someone asks him.

Its really debatable, but i really hope the bugs get fixed so we can experience them

I personally am not in favor of the whole Masteries Unlock system. I would like to see it more like the abilities for WvW where once you have earned the point you can use it. If you don’t have enough points to progress to the next level of a given track, then you wait until you have enough or you use them for a different track.

The unlock seems like a different form of time-gating that doesn’t really serve a specific purpose other than to slow down the allocation of accumulated mastery points. If we’ve already earned them, then please let us use them. The earning of XP should simply be a means to earning new points rather than a barrier to using those we already have.

A full day? It only took me about an hour (unless you are referring to ‘day’ as the day cycle in Verdant Brink) to get my first mastery unlocked. So far I’ve played the beta for probably about 8 hours and have 3.5 mastery abilities unlocked. Keeping in mind the buggy events, lack of a fleshed out night cycle, and we only have access to 25% of the map, it will probably go even quicker at launch.

I think the speed for unlocking masteries is pretty spot on. About one hour for the lowest tier in each line with a gradual increase as you move up the line seems right to me. I don’t see much point in the mastery system if its something you can fully complete in the course of a week.

It appears that the XP needed for the next mastery is just about double the previous. To unlock the 3rd mastery for gliding you needed about 1.1M XP. To unlock the 4th mastery, you need 2.4M. I’m guessing the 5th would be around 5M and the final would somewhere around 10M. That’s twice as much XP required to get to level 80.
