Guild Wars 2

in the process of making my legendary and have already spent 700k karma on it. now im out and need more obsidian shards what is best way to farm karma these days?

1: Join in fractals groups 10 levels below your personal level. You get a karma reward that stacks up nicely.
2: events, events events.
3: (only available right now) the introduction instance for nightmare tower can be repeated and when you use boosts it can give up to 3k per 15 minutes.

thanks thats awsome. didnt know about #1 since im only lvl 5 or 3

The daily activity also awards a minimum of 600 per match.

True, but I think most people know this. The OP wants to buy obsidian shards. They cost 2100 karma. So thats 3,5 days per shard in that method. The more important part off the daily is that you get laurels. 3 dailies means 3 laurels that can be spent on 3 shards. So yes it is good to do your pve daily. it gives you 1 shard a day, plus and extra 2 every week cause off the karma (not calculating the karma from events in the progress off the daily)

Still small bits but yeah it helps!

No, I’m not talking about the “daily” achievement where you complete 5 of 8 options. I’m talking about the option that’s always on the daily list to do the daily “activity” which chooses between pvp games, like Keg Brawl, Sanctum Sprint, etc. Each time you do one match, you get 600 karma if you lose, and 1000 karma if you win. Sorry for the confusion.
