Guild Wars 2

Well yesterday i was thinking about the WvW regular achievements (not the seasson ones).

It’s ok, that they are planed to gain them after lots of hours, but i think that this is too much.

1.000.000 Dolyaks destroyed
500.000 Escorted caravans
1.000.000 supplies for repairs
1.000.000 objectives captured
100.000 supply camps captured
100.000 towers captured
100.000 keeps captured
25.000 times stonemist captured
1.000.000 total objectives defended
500.000 supply camps defended
500.000 tower defended
500.000 keeps defended
500.000 stonemists defended

The only one i think have decent numbers is the 250.000 kills, it’s a long term one, but can be done.

The other ones, i just think that are too much inflated the numbers, WvW players do WvW for fun, but i think all of us would like to know that some day we could reach some achievements and titles to show. Actually it’s imposible right now…

This post is not a cry, i’m a full WvW player and i know that they have to be long or hard, but this is too much Anet….

So.. Are you planing on making any change on these achievements?

Some numbers:

I have 4.769 objectives captured after a year (taking about 3-4months a break for holidays) it means, that for the title i’d need just 209 years to achieve it!! (Actually i like the game, but i doubt that i will still play in 209 years…)

I know that lot of people will have lot more objectives than me, but one friend have 25.000, he would actually need 40 years to earn it… As I said… imposible achievements.

At my current rate it should only take a little over 4000 years to complete the Yakslapper achievment. This is weird as I play about 6 hours a day in WvW 5 or more days a week.

500,000 stonemist defenses is
1,500,000 minutes of stonemist defense
that’s 250,000 hours
1041.666 days

Or 2.85 years
2.85 years straight. 24/7, no breaks, with your server owning stonemist, it being under attack, and you getting credit for the defense.

Some more numbers!!

I captured just 55 times stonemist (i never play on EB).. I would need 454 years!
I used 10.000 supplies on repairs… Just 100 years!! (Really close one)
And for the Yakslapper… 529 years!

Anet is aware of this and they’re being looked at, I think. But yeah, it would be nice to have titles we can get without playing 18 hours a day for 10 years.

Just take off two zeroes and it’ll be more reasonable.

Ayrilana.1396:

+1 to your idea! Simple and effective

It’s “being looked at” and is “coming soon” “sometime in the near future” but it’s “not highest on list of priorities” and don’t ask for a timeframe because it’s “not company policy to release information currently”.

I’m sure there’s a few more from our resident master of ambiguity but I’ll be honest in that I can’t remember them all.
