Hello,

82 days ago i started a small project just for fun for myself.

I did everyday fractal dailies and farmed berries in bitterfrost in that 82 days.

In 2 days my project is done and i will have:

250x Fractal Initiate’s Chest
250x Fractal Adept’s Chest
250x Fractal Expert’s Chest
250x Fractal Master’s Chest

~5500x Cracked Fractal Encryption

~150.000 unbound magic

Additional to this items i have:
54x Black Lion Chest Keys

And also crafted ~300 pieces of a “secret” item which is worth ~900Gold

I invested into this project ~1700Gold

My guilds told me to do a live stream when i open the chests and i wanted to ask you here in the forum if you are also interested to watch me opening all that stuff.

Im awaiting 5000Gold.. Maybe its way to much, but lets see haha

What do you think?

Isn’t that the same as “how to get $3 a day”?

Isn’t that the same as “how to get $3 a day”?

With the details being:

  • 3$/day = just under 20,000 gems
  • At current exchange rates, that converts to 4844 gold

i.e. the cost of buying fancy coffee at starbucks for 3 months

Wow, that’s a lot of stuff. I would watch the vid for curiosity.

Am I missing something? If you got ~300 of an item worth ~900 Gold that would be about ~270000 Gold. Why are you worried about a measly 5000 Gold? That’s like pocket change by comparison. Just curious.

Edit: I’d watch the vid.

I feel like if you made it from scratch i’d be interested. Otherwise with 1700 gold you could have just done world completes and made legendaries and done daily fractals to come out with more than 5000 gold over the course of that many days.

So, the lesson here is in order to make gold, I need gold. Yeah, I’m broke.

Problem is, i hate making legendaries in GW2 and i would have to invest way more time.

In my 84 days project i just invested 2 hours per day.

EDIT: I need just 100Gold and i can instant craft Frostfang btw xD But im not sure if i shall keep it or sell it. I miss only the 100 icycle shards or however they are called ^^

Of course, but you will get always 4x more gold out.

If you invest 1000Gold, youll get 3000-4000Gold out

No, you got 3x as much gold out, since you invested 1,700 by your own accord.

And all this shows is that if you already have a lot of money its trivial to make more money. But fact is not very many people have 1,700 gold to just invest like this.

I’m confused. What was the investment? Anyone can walk into Bitterfrost and fractals even if they have 0 gold.

So my investemtn was:

Buying 60 encryption keys every day = ~12 Gold per day = ~1135Gold
And buying at the end 9 Stacks of encryptions for 56Gold EACH stack = ~517Gold

I’m not so much into watching other people gain loot. I’m glad for you with whatever you have/will get, but watching it? Nah.

Its fine ^^

I like to watch such videos. I watched videos of people investing 2000Gold into ecto gambling and opening 10.000 other chests xD

Its interesting what you can get sometimes.

I’d watch, but like the others, here I’d like some clarification about some things. I don’t want you to reveal your “secret” item, but the I’m curious about your investment. Did you use alts for harvesting?

I’d watch just to feed my curiosity.

On a side note, I must be doing something completely wrong in-game because I’ve never hit past 140G and I’ve been playing for just over a year or so xD
