Hi again,
A while ago I made a video/post on the easiest Core Tyria mastery points (will link that at bottom of post), and a lot of people seemed to enjoy it, and found it extremely helpful. Since then I’ve gotten requests on the easiest HoT mastery points, so here’s the list of things you should have already done, or should be doing to get some easy points if you’re low.
Easy Adventures
Each adventure can give you up to 2 mastery points, 1 for earning a silver medal, and 1 for earning a gold medal. Below are the top 5 easiest adventures to do. So if you haven’t done them yet, do them. Every adventure can also pretty much be found on YouTube so you could take some time to do them all if you really wanted to.
- Flying Circus: In Verdant Brink, you just glide through rings and get to the finish line. Gliding 2 required, but if you have 4 and 5, it’s much easier.
- Salvage Pit: In Verdant Brink, you just gather scrap metal from the floor in a small pit and avoid getting slowed. If you have speed mushrooms, this becomes much easier too.
- On Wings of Gold: In Auric Basin, you just gather the gold orbs in the sky and in the updrafts, and once you have a ton bring them back to the collection device. Gliding 2 required for this one.
- Ley-Line Run: In Tangled Depths, you just go through an obstacle course as a spark, and get to the finish line using the skills. May take some time getting used to the skills, and learning the run, but is very easy afterwards.
- Drone Race: In Tangled Depths, you just go through an obstacle course in a drone car and use your skills to drive up ramps and fly through checkpoints. Can be very fun and easy, and if you have the Itzel Lore mastery which makes you immune to the poison, this can be even easier.
Mastery Insights
Each map in Heart of Thorns, and even the new maps all have mastery insights. All they require is for you to get to a specific location and commune with it like a hero point. There are close to 30 mastery insights right now in-game, that’s almost 30 easy points there. A few may require higher levels of gliding, but that’s why I suggest doing the adventures first, less demanding.
The wiki page for the mastery insights will be linked below, and you can just copy and paste the names of them in YouTube and there will be guides to them, can read walkthroughs on the wiki too.
Strongboxes
Similar to the mastery insights, the Heart of Thorns maps also have a set of strongboxes in each map. If you find them, each gives you another mastery point as well. These can be found under the Heart of Thorns map sections in the Achievements panel. Just like insights, you can find walkthroughs on the wiki, and YouTube by copy and pasting the strongbox.
With all of these done, you should be able to easily accumulate 50+ Heart of Thorns mastery points. If you’re very low on them, or are new to the game, this should be a easy boost in points for you.
Hope you found this helpful, and be sure to look at the links below for more information and help!
