Guild Wars 2

Can we please have 2-3 noxious pods around player’s home. Just having 1 per day isn’t enough.

1 per day? did I miss something here, I was not aware of any noxious pods being available in the home instance, if there was it would certainly only be 1 though not 2-3.

Why are you limiting yourself to one per day?

• Before the meta event completes, a few Noxious Pods spawn across Dragon’s Stand
• An average of 2-6 pods are known to spawn on each lane and within the area of its checkpoint events. Look on the sides of the main lanes or in special events areas as the lane progresses.
• After the meta event completes successfully, Noxious Pods spawn in set hidden locations hinted by the red arrows. Each " hidden" location only accessible on victory usually contains 3-5+ pods in different sections of the hidden section.

I think he meant we need noxious pods in our home instance but only one would not be enough. So if they would implement it, to put 2/3 in instead of one. Wording is confusing tho.

I don’t really see the need for it.

I meant to be saying the same: there’s no need for it because there are plenty available in DS.

This is a cool idea. I’d also like to see a home instance airship cargo. Airship parts are the worst to obtain.

How? You get them out of the cargos. They are all over the map in VB and the map events just give out crowbars like crazy unlike the Keys or Chak Acid. Airship parts are the easiest currency to acquire by far.

…VB meta, unlike all others, gives keys like crazy. You get far more keys than there are chests to use them on. Do the events a few times, and then for a long time you can just pop in, open chests and leave without even participating.
It’s the very opposite of the next 3 maps where you never have enough keys.

Well me hating airship parts may be an opinion but VB is unique in that the map currency isn’t awarded in map/event participation reward chests. For e.g. in Tangled Depths I can get up to 200% participation and literally go AFK then soak up participation chests. In Verdant Brink those chests reward keys (crowbars) instead of map currency which require me to actively seek out and open treasure chests (airship cargo). As far as I’m aware, the other map treasure chests don’t even reward currency, just loot and materials, meaning opening chests is optional while VB forces you to do so. Combine this with the the fact that airship parts are used by many more things than the other map currencies and my opinion that the VB meta is the biggest snooze fest and that’s why I find airship parts the worst.

Source: Have over 20k leyline crystals, 20k aurillium and less than 150 airship parts.

They really should have home nodes for all the currencies, instead of just Aurillium.

Was just going to say something like that. Though I’m not particularly fussed about collecting the currencies, I did enjoy the collection quests to get my aurillium, wintersday tree, candy corn, found bandit chest and quartz nodes. And it’s nice to have them decorating my ‘home’, such as it is.

So basically the system is the worst because you can’t exploit it with afk map chest rewards?

If you say so.
