I’m almost done with Central Tyria. I just need 4 mastery points to be finished. But there is no way to get the kitten things.

I don’t have the money to buy all the cultural armors, or the resources to get all the fractal skins or ambrite weapons, etc.

I can’t get a WvW spoon to drop. Thanks for tying that to RNG.

I’m nowhere near world completion and that’s only 1 point anyway.

I did all the fractal ones already, except the dolphin one which, now that they fixed the bug that let you get it for doing darkness and then going backward out of the boss room, is impossible without a full party on Voice Chat.

I did teq and triple trouble already. Why don’t the other world bosses have mastery points with them? At the least for the shatterer and claw of jormag, since they have their own achievement sets.

I did the karka hunt in Lions arch, and the queen karka, and the skritt queen, and the diving.

I have no interest in doing LS2 over and over and over for hours on end. Can you even switch characters, or do you have to do the story once per character before you can get the achievements with them?

I can’t get the legendaries to appear on the Silverwastes. No matter how much is at tier 4, not matter that we get the vinewrath going, the legendaries never appear. Thanks for more RNG.

If the stupid silverwastes weren’t all RNG, I could be done, but instead all I can do is spend all day in the map for no results.

You did at least do a complete run through of LS2 right?

Have you done the Hidden garden and SW jumping puzzles? SW badge collection?

Regarding the LS2 achievements; No, you can’t do the achievements on a character that hasn’t done the story first. However, once you’ve finished the story the first time, if that character reactivates the chapter, you can go straight to the instance with the achievement. Those are marked with purple stars instead of green ones. Some chapters can be soloed… Gates of Maguuma, Echos of the Past and Tangled Paths are the ones I completed solo.

Yes, I did the hidden gardens, Retrospective runaround, and the badges. I have gone through the LS2 story, but if I am going to do it again I don’t want to do it with the same character. That’s boring.

By the way, concerning the badge, I want to say to anyone who is listening: STOP DESIGNING PIXEL PRECISION JUMPS. GW2 DOES NOT HAVE THE CAMERA FOR THIS.

This is a kittening waste. I have spent over 24 hours on the silverwastes in the last week and I have never seen or even heard of a single legendary appearing. I could be playing the new content, but instead I get to sit on empty maps waiting for the RNG to get off it’s kitten . Because tying mastery points to RNG was such a good idea.

they are called mastery points, obviously you have to mastery some stuff to be worthy of having unlocked all masteries
I am glad not all mastery points are useless 5-15min tasks

1st person worldwide to reach 35,000 achievement points.

If you write off so many of the available MP the. Of course you’re going to have difficulty getting them.

Also, the dolphin one in FotM can be done solo. You do not need to have a group on TS to do that.

For SW, the easiest would to put up a LFG for what you need.

or the resources to get all the ambrite weapons, etc. (snip)

The ambrite weapons can be done fairly simply by doing the PvP reward track for them. (There might be a WvW version also. You can check). Doing the reward track gives you one guaranteed fossilized insect to take to be identified as well as some of the geodes you need. Repeat the track till you have them all and play Dry Top to get more geodes. It’s how I got my set of ambrite weapons.

Be careful what you ask for
ANet may give it to you.

The silverwastes legendaries have nothing to do with mastery of anything but luck. You are running around hoping the RNG will decide to bless you with a spawn. There is nothing TO master about this.

I tried LFG for the SW stuff. Simone joined just long enough to tell me to stop, because, rightly, no one is going to join since it’s not something that can be triggered. All you can do is go to SW event maps and hope things show up.

It’s not about triggering it. It’s about having a LFG up so people know to invite you to their map. This is one of the ways that many people got this completed.

I’m almost done with Central Tyria. I just need 4 mastery points to be finished. But there is no way to get the kitten things.

There are obviously ways to get the “kitten” things, since many other people have gotten them.

What you seem to be saying is that you don’t want to work on masteries unless they are ‘reasonable’ to you. There’s a bit of wiggle room in core unlocks and you keep providing excuses as to why they aren’t right for you.

I’m not sure any player can help you if you are so reluctant to meet the game halfway on the remaining available unlocks.

Based on what you have written, I think your best route is to wait and hope that ANet adds more unlocks to core Tyria. And in the meantime, accept that you’ll be four short for a while.

Full disclosure: I still haven’t unlocked all the HoT masteries, because, like the OP, I don’t really care to do what’s required to earn them (too dull or tedious for me). Prior to the latest patch, I accepted that I was unlikely to max them all.

The silverwastes legendaries have nothing to do with mastery of anything but luck. You are running around hoping the RNG will decide to bless you with a spawn. There is nothing TO master about this.

On the contrary, it has to do with understanding how the map works and being part of a Massively Multiplayer group (or at least, about 12-20 people). Sure, it’s RNG, but you can stack the odds in your favor by being part of an organized map.

As for the other mastery points:

  • Fractal dolphins: as others have mentioned, it can be done solo. It doesn’t require a fully party or VOIP.
  • Cultural armor: you don’t want to spend the money.
  • Fractal skins: yeah, that one will elude most people.
  • Ambrite weaons: as mentioned, you can get that via WvW or PvP reward tracks, or put in the time in joining [SAND] or other organized DT maps. Apparently, you don’t want to put in the time.
  • WvW spoon — you don’t want to put in the time.
  • World completion — you don’t want to put in the effort.
  • LS2 — you don’t want to put in the effort

Masteries aren’t required to play the game, although they sure make it easier
