Guild Wars 2

I’m not going to write a paragraph about how much I love this and that before I cut to the case. I’m too tired for that anyway so I’ll cut to the case.

Shards of Glory should not replace the transmutation charges. Make them replace the tomes of knowledge instead. Why?

Because when you come to a certain point you won’t have any use for those Tomes anymore,but you’ll have “more use” for Transmutation charges. That’s just my opinion but I’m certain I’m not alone on this.

BLC keys? Only in one-shot reward tracks,e.g. Balthazar backpack reward track? Come on. Unless you’re releasing a one-shot track a week (which I guess is not the plan) why not have a repeatable reward track which may only be completeded X amount of times in a week,which will ofc. include BLC keys in it?

Giving us pvp’ers a chance to obtain these keys doesn’t do much good to us if you’re releasing one track a month or even in longer spaces inbetween while there is atm one way to obtain 1 key a week,through pve. I mean,we’re basically at where we were before you announced this.

What do you think?

Be happy with the fact that you can atleast can get some blc keys. the drop chance for wvw and pve blc keys is riduciously low. And dont forgot blc keys are one of the few ways for anet to really make money from gem store.
But I agree on the transmutation stone part

Oh I*m not talking about the Drop rate of BL keys in PVE or WvW. No,I know that one is insanely low.

I’m talking about the personal story ofc. Last I heard Anet did something so that you can only get a BL key from PS once a week. Once a week would be fair for pvpers as well,don’t you think? I mean,considering that they’re now thinking of implementing BL keys into pvp.

I too would like if you could earn 1 a week in pvp, but like is said anet is making money with blc keys, so i doubt they will ever implement something like that

Well,there’s also a plethora of items left in the GS they’ll make money from. To counter your argument a more accurately;
Transmutation charges. They have that in the reward tracks. And lots of them too.

I believe its several times faster to complete personal story lv10 than to do any pvp track. I don’t see any reason why they shouldn’t add 1key/1track/1week for those who have core game.

2 things:

1) replace tomes instead of transmutation charges

2) Black lion keys should go with reward track repeatable once for week (like personal level 10) and not one shot.

Personally I think these One-Off reward tracks should give us a black lion ticket instead of a key if theres going to be so few of them. PvPers either have to grind tracks for months or play accounting simulator on the TP for a few days to get enough gold to get these black lion skins.

tl;dr- Give us the ticket, not the RNGKey!

+1 to replacing the tomes instead of the charges! I’m swimming in those kitten things and with the nerf to BLKey farming I no longer have a use for them.

I have a ton of Characters that aren’t level 80. I really need tome of knowledge.

But if it is a choice between cutting transmutation stone or cutting tomes of knowledge, I would rather cut tome of knowledge.

i guess people start farming city maps for transmutation charges. earn 6 in like 2 hours of map points, or less, lol.

In seriousness though, what do you need to change every 5 minute that the amount still earn is so low?
