Wanted to say that i loved the news that Hero Challenges can be completed by spending currencies earned playing wvw. It really matches up well with comments made by Colin Johanson years ago when he said “It’s extremely important that we stay true to our philosophy that you should be able to play Guild Wars 2 the way you want to play the game in order to reach the most powerful rewards” https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/colin-johanson-on-guild-wars-2-in-the-months-ahead/.
My first reaction to the hero’s points info was excitement at how much easier it would be for wvw focused players to get map completion, then it got me thinking are there any plans to expand on this in the future, to release consumables that complete random waypoints, vistas, hearts etc for characters? I’m sure being able to work on completing tasks for a legendary by playing their preferred game mode would be a dream for a lot of players, grinding is a lot less work when its doing something you love. Anyway thanks for showing some love to wvw players with this hero point change.
