Doing events over and over? Is there DR for the rewards?

Do the story achievements, and DE’s around the world. Haven’t grinded a single thing, never done an event more than twice and I already have 190 geodes.

Also don’t purchase from the vendor until you get a T4 map. The prices are almost 50% less.

If you have alts you can do story with them, you get rewards again so its 4 lockpics if you finish full story plus some geodes and other stuff

Wow… didn’t know the prices were different for different tiers. Also was told on mapchat that the tier was personal and not mapwide.

It’s mapwide and I haven’t seen better than T2 so far. It looks to me like playing the story with all characters is the best farm so far.

At 2 or 3, maybe 4 geodes per event I’m simply not motivated for this. I’ll need something like 1k geodes for the recipes I want. It wont happen, so thanks anyway for yet another jumping puzzle.

Excuse me for derailing the topic a bit, but why do you need geodes? I honestly have no use for these things other than the keys, so i can get champ bags and sell them for a profit (this isn’t trying to make a point. i’m genuinely curious in case I’m missing out on something)

Druid main, 80 on all, Legendary ranked, Eternal and all that jazz (I go by Feyris in game)

The best was is to get to tier 3/4 in favour and then do the events in the sandstorm as they give extra geodes (I believe it is twice the normal amount). Also as the tier goes up, so does the rewards. I believe these are the rewarded geode amounts

Tier 1: 2 (4 in sandstorm)
Tier 2: 3 (6)
Tier 3: 4 (8)
Tier 4: 5 (10)

You can probably get 4-5 events done in the sandstorm which are save the zepherites from dust mites, save haze, burgler, queen, dust monster (tier 3-4 only). So doing a tier 4 instance you might get as much as 70-80 geodes per hour.

Why make sense, when it’s so much more fun to make nonsense?

Some of the food recipies are good for WvW. And as the food is accountbound, there’s no option of buying on the TP, hence the necessity for geodes.
