Guild Wars 2

If the way someone plays somehow doesn’t naturally incorporate most of the daily achievement tasks and they’re too stubborn to take a little detour to finish off the tasks, then I say it’s fair that they don’t get the laurels.

There are a lot of way to gain karma, whatever you do, sooner or later you can afford the karma equipments by just playing the game and having fun. In opposition to this, the laurel system forces you to do things what you don’t want to do. Having different token for every dungeon and every equipment makes it more time consuming, what might be good for someone, but it is not good for me, because i have less time to play wvw.

It’s good, because it means you can’t get Dungeon gear without doing the dungeons. Same with Fractals.

How in the world can you not do your dailies while playing WvW?

Teofa Tsavo.9863:

And if today had been “Talk to the laurel Vendor day” and Crafting you would NOT have done “WTF” you wanted to in Mount Maelstrom and Straits.

You’re right, I would have done it after I was finished in those areas.

Teofa Tsavo.9863:

Repeating your “mantras” is not going to change others perceptions. Hard, easy, fast, slow, doesn’t matter, its a scavenger hunt, in MY opinion. And while I may at times do it, it will never make it NOT one, nor will I ever have to like it. It is quite simply, annoying, and yes, for some people, it puts them in a position of doing activities they might hate with a passion.

Please note that I am not “suggesting” to you that you should find them annoying as well. I think it is fine and dandy that you like the dailies as they are, and I would never “suggest” that you have to think exactly as I do.

You made a point, long ago. If someone wants laurels, they have to play the game given them. That point being valid does not entitle you to utterly disrespect other peoples opinions to the point of being as insulting and argumentative as you come off.

If someone had of said that they dislike the dailies but were ok with not doing them then I would have left them alone. The thing is people have stated their opinion and then used that as reasoning for believing that a change is needed within the game.

Teofa Tsavo.9863:

Want respect? Give respect. All you have is an opinion. That doesn’t make you a Teacher, an arbiter of “right and wrong” or a sheriff “cleanin up da forumz”.

Nor does it give you leave to bluntly state what others may or may not “deserve” or be “incapable of” Anet will decide that. It’s not your call.

I am not being arbitrary I am translating what ANet means. When they design the dailies to be earnt by specific tasks then those that complete the task have earned them. Its only natural then that those that want the laurels and do not wish to earn them are undeserving. I do not need to be a sheriff to see that, merely logical.

If ANet were to change their mind and come out with dailies that can be earnt through ANY means (and I’m meaning anything, even just time alloted) then that is what I will change my view to. I will not argue against ANet if they make that decision will instead argue against anyone who is spoilt enough to make further complaints about other aspects of the game.

The only reason I may be “better” than you or anyone else is because I am correctly interpretting what ANet is saying, that and the majority of people here agree with me. That is how wrong opinions are seperated by right opinions. Majority rules.

My side is hurting too much from laughing to continue. I cannot argue vs flawless logic.

One of these gems will be my new sig.

Good luck having that signature for long as bringing unnecessary/unwanted attention to another player.

There are at least 4 zones you can get it in less than 2 minutes.

• Zone 1: Harithi Highlands
• Zone 2: Shatter Dragon event – Around the area is at least 50 dead bodies
• Zone 3: Cadeon Forest
• Zone 4: Orr
  If you have to seriously stand around and wait for NPC to die you should probably level your character a little bit.

Yeah, that’s still having to go out of my way. There’s a difference between objectives that are intended to be completed through someone’s normal gameplay and what amounts to a daily ‘scavenger hunt’.

Near as I can tell, the new dailies aren’t meant to be completed through an individual’s normal gameplay unless your gameplay almost exclusively includes WvW or hanging out in Orr.

Except – I do, for the most part, complete the dailies with the way I do play. The only time I’ve ever felt the need to force the issue, is when I’ve missed most of the day and there’s only 1/2 hour until ‘tomorrow’ and I still have a few things to get. If I’ve missed most of ‘today’ I don’t sweat it.

There is, however, an exception. I’d never spent much time dodging. So when that is one of the dailies, I do change the way fight – but not who or where I fight. And I’m finding that I tend to stay alive longer, so I consider this a good thing.

stop complaining about the dailies untill anet starts making them mandatory. they can be ignored . if you ignore them you lose out on a bit of loot. if you dont run a dungeon ever second you play you miss out on tokens. i want more variety in dailies but thats the only problem i have with them. nothing else about them should or needs to change.

I believe that Phase 2 of the improved rewards updates (probably coming in March/April, but it may make it into the February update) will rectify a lot of concerns players have about the Dailies. Namely, Dailies (and Monthlies too, I think) will be modified so that you only need to do 4/6 of the activities to gain the reward. Don’t like dungeons/JPs/WvW/crafting/dodging? Skip them. There should be enough overlap that 4 of the daily activities are palatable to your playstyle.

Alright well lets see if we can see if I’m right. If I’m right when I interpret ANet then they are great game designers and I’m happy.

If you are right then ANet are idiots, dont know how to make a game and a lot of people are supposed to be unhappy atm.

I really dont think ANet set out here to make a bad decision. Assuming that they aren’t idiots, I’m right. And all you’re doing is confusing people with a sig they know nothing about.
