Guild Wars 2

You know those end chests of a reward track on the tracks that’s give you dragonite ore, bloodstone dust, clovers, and obsidian shards.

1.) Well they should get rid of the bloodstone dust and dragonite ore, and replace it with choice of bolt of damask or deldimor steel ingot.

Seriously it takes 300 silk scraps to even make 1 bolt of damask and you need like 2+ of them. Let alone a bunch of other nonsense silks. I cant calculate HOW many times you’d have to win pvp games to even make an ascended gear.

2.) If that’s too much to ask, than secondary option would be to offer choice of Spool of silk weaving thread or Lump of Mithrillium.

I just want to let you guys know that this dragonite ore and bloodstone dust is pretty much garbage to someone who spends hours completing a pvp track. The options I offered are much much more valuable. You also don’t stack up on them easily like you do with dragonite ore and bloodstone dust. And if you’ve played as many games as I have than you’d know your bags start hurting with all that garbage in it, when the game could be giving you something more valuable and worth your time.

Ps. thinking about bags, I’m still waiting for PvP bags to come back into the game…. Maybe instead of getting a skin you already have… You can chose to get a bag equivalent to your pvp rank…

Edit, If people see this as a good way to get those stupid components for ascended gear… That’s means more pvp population. If you people seriously do these tracks for the dragonite ore and bloodstone dust your doing it wrong, 3 hours in eotm karma you’ll have way more than you know what to do with. Now for the components I mentioned.. Very tedious, and if PvP was to give out those kind of rewards it would draw in a crowd that’s for sure. If anything go with option 2 because you cant sell it on trade post. Since you cant sell ores and dusts on tradepost anyways. I’m sure everyone would rather get option 2 in replacement of those stupid dusts and ores.

Yea, linen and other mats are harder to get than the Dragonite/Empyreal frags. I took a character to level 55 with tomes of knowledge and spvp with him just to get linen.

I’m sure not going to “farm” mats in pve.

I like the reward system now but it could be tweaked.

Feels really awkward if PvP gave such high rewards, a bolt of damask is really valuable!

PvE players should get glory points for doing world bosses and dungeons then, and from every player kill in WvW

Ya that’s why I mentioned option 2 of getting Spool of silk weaving thread or Lump of Mithrillium instead.

I was doing some more thinking and it should be offered in the orr track only, because it is the last track of the progression track. There should be some reward for getting this far as well and I think this would be a nice reward. You don’t get any dungeon armor or weapons, instead you get the items I’ve mentioned.

Also another thing to note is that they are worth like 8 gold, the bolt of damask is worth like 15 gold. So it would engage the pvp’er in trade posting for the other necessary items and make a bolt of damask than resell it and make the 8 gold profit if he choses that route. Lets be honest, pretty much everything in this game is at the honest/ lowest price. 20 slot bags are 12 gold… Well it takes just about 12 gold to make. So to get all the other ingredients to make bolt of damask it would take 7 of your gold.

Another thing, they could make it by chance too, like 80% chance to get a Spool of silk weaving thread or Lump of Mithrillium and a 20% chance to get a Bolt of Damask or Deldrimor Steel Ingot.

Point is to make PvP worth something, and if people see that PvP offers some valuable rewards worth wasting there time than more people will come and PvP. Getting a Bolt of Damask and clovers and obsidian shards are worth it in my mind. Only 15 gold and just remember how long it takes to complete a track. You want to make it worth it.

Clutter bags with bloodstone dust and dragonite ore isn’t the way to go. It takes a long time to clutter bags with Spool of silk weaving thread or Lump of Mithrillium however and these are components that people NEED/WANT.

Dragonite is hardly cluttering for anyone who doesn’t spend all day autoattacking loot pinatas. Please don’t get rid of it.

PvP rewards?

A pvp “reward” box takes me about 50 mouse clicks to open, salvage, vendor, destroy, or TP all that crap. For this pvp player there are no pvp rewards and only a lot of mouse clicks for less silver than I received from the match I just played. Even the skill points and levels are not rewarding since a vast majority of the added traits and heal skills have not been worth using, and five 10 luck consumables versus one 50 luck consumable is the worst.

The perfect pvp reward for me would be more gold with less clicks.

Ya the items I asked for are basically more gold, and/or ways for you to save huge amounts of gold from crafting your ascended armor.

Crafting things like ascended chestplate the primary gold sinks are the items I mentioned.

This would be good in the orr track since you should get rewarded for getting that far and this would be a perfect reward to keep doing that track vs the other tracks.
