Guild Wars 2

If you top out a mastery does advancement stop until you spend a point or does it not? I did not notice when I advanced if the next bar was filling or not. If anyone took note of this I would appreciate the answer.

I had this happen (because I was having a hard time getting Mastery Points), and every time I killed a mob, the “hey you have an unlocked mastery line!” popped up. Any time I got XP I had to stop and close that dialog. Ugh.

No progress was made toward the next unlock in the line. Until you find those mastery points to do the second part of the unlock, or switch to a different mastery line, you XP is not being applied to mastery progress.

I’m not sure, but I think excess xp went towards the next tier. I was busy when I unlocked the second tier of Itzel mastery, and after spending the mastery point and checking back again a while later, I had more progress than I think I would have had gained after spending the point.

i have a full bar but no mastery point to spent on it …
I doubt it’s progressing beyond that point.

just realized you can simply switch the active mastery after one is full allready.

That is to bad, I am sure a lot of people are either going to forget or not have points and forget to transfer to a new mastery line.

So my beta suggestion is to either have an overflow or a mastery switch system built in.
