Guild Wars 2

I was wondering if karma vials, drops, drips, sips and whatnot, were taken away? The reason I ask is bc I am in the middle of my legendary and have yet to get to the shards which require karma as currency.
If so why?
If not, then what a relief but I haven’t been getting anything karma related from blue dungeon bags.

they cut the drop rate of karma consumables from champ loot a LOT, i used to get 1 per bag but now it more like 1 in 50 or so if i even get any at that. best way for karma is wvw. kill a supply dolly 85 karma, sentry 120, camp capture 170, tower 340, keep 1300. even defending gets 255 karma when the timer hits 0.00. and if you happen to be dominating the week its a breeze to get with a good zerg.

Well that can be a bit of a balancing act. If your server is dominating too much there might not be anything to take!

You also get karma from doing dailies and monthlies. I’ve found it’s much easier to get the daily when doing WvW, so you could even combine the two.

Killing Tequatl (if you’re on a server or guild that still takes him down) is also a good source of karma; you get 12,000 karma for beating him, not counting the karma you also get from the Group Events.

do underleveled fractals. If your personal fractal level is 30 and you do level 20, you’ll get about 9000 karma each run. Just activate a karma booster before finishing off the maw for an extra 4,500 (it’s usually possible to do another fractal run before that booster is up)
on top of that 9000 karma, you also get fractal relics which can be converted directly to obsidian shards. 100 relics / run = 6 obsidian shards.
