Guild Wars 2

As mentioned in topic, i was wondering what will happen to Guild Merits?

Are we going to be able to convert them into Favor/Aetherium/Resonance?
Or should we spend them all on guild consumables?

I believe, based on a full reading of the blog NTDK linked, that merits will simply poof. Use them before HoT or lose them. Earlier in the blog the dev notes that some consumables will likewise be made obsolete and promises further warnings as HoT approaches that guilds will need to set up 25 of them or something like that (my guild doesn’t use consumables and I’m not the GM so I really don’t follow how all that works). If one thing is just vanishing, it seems merits will as well. (Commendations will continue to exist and accrue for individual guild members). Read the blog for details.

if im not mistaken they remain unchanged . The other ones are new credits.

we can get guild merits by doing guild missions now, but with HoT guild missions are going to be our source for favor, so are we going to earn guild merits and favor from guild missions then?

“we’ll be retiring merits once Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns goes live.”

so not going to be in HoT guild missions

any information about us being able to convert them later on?

^ what Donari said.

Merits will go poof.
Currently the only thing that merit is good for is to unlock guild missions.
There’s not much thing to use it for. You cant make consumables with it. The other buffs that use merit like lower waypoint cost, more wvw exp are totally not worth wasting 1 build slot for them.

As a guild leader, I simply ignore merit.
