Is it only me that thinks marks are an incredibly low drop rate? Two weeks in, lots of wvwvw and less than 50 marks.

Yes i will have missed some due tothe way loot bags spawn, but i actively look out fr loot bags now and get most of them.

Part of the issue will ethe bad comtribution system, meaning unless you are a burst dps class you dont get awarded loot or exp. but even in one on one fights, often there is not loot and even whe there is there is very rarely a mark in it.

Is this intended to be such a low drop rate?

Dunno, I’ve earned about 600+ badges and I don’t even WvW that much, hell, I spent more time farming for materials that I need :/ . A guildie of mine has much more of them. So drop rate is fine imo.

Man more siege weapons. Anyone can be “burst DPS” when they’re manning a cannon, arrow cart or ballista.

It’s good for the team to plop down an arrow cart when you’re attacking an enemy tower but if that’s not enough reason to do it, then consider that you’ll also get more badges because you’ll be out-DPSing most people.

The famous “Pangloss Ballista Defense” is a big badge farm too.

ah, so your solution is not not play my preferred profession…….

Ok, that just screams game imbalance if the only solution is to bypass my profession and use seiges…

whats your profession just out of interest? I have a feeling its more to do with the contribution or tagging system than it is the drop rate to be honest.

If you’d share some details about how you got so many I would be very very grateful. As it stands I only know of getting them through the jumping puzzles and killing other players. Loot bags drop so very rarely for me and even rarer still do i get badges of honor. What did you do that got you so many?
