Guild Wars 2

So yesterday I ended up getting my daily done while working on helping refugees on my main. I figured I’d claim the reward on my alt, since he needed the XP more. Well I got lost in some crafting last night and never claimed the reward. Logged in this morning to claim the reward and there is no chest to claim it. I have tried zoning, killing some mobs and gathering at a node with both the main and the alt and the chest never pops.

I’ve attached a screenshot to prove that I got the achievements done, only have 1 Laurel (from the day before) and no chest on the screen.

I’m not sure that you can complete the daily on one character then switch character’s and claim it on a different one. The amount of silver you get for the daily completion is based on the level of the character who completed it.

As for the XP, it is awarded to the character as soon as it is achieved, not when the chest is actually opened.

I would assume that you already switched back to the character that you actually completed the daily on and checked to see if the chest was still available, if not try that.

If it still doesn’t work, you can try a support ticket, but they might not be able to re-issue the chest.

You can only claim the reward on the character that earned the final achievement to take the dailies to 100%. This has been true since the introduction of the system before launch.

Yes, the first thing I did was issue a support ticket. So we’ll see where the gets me.

I remember doing exactly this before and it worked, but this was before the karma awards for achievements came along. I could complete the daily/monthly on one character and then claim it on another. The silver and XP was calculated at the time of the claim, not upon completing the achievements. I remember, because I was thinking I’d get 5 silver on my lvl 2, but it was only like 30 copper. And there is (or was) an XP award with the claim, it has a yellow (diamond shaped?) icon that once you accept goes into your XP bar. Or at least it was. Either way, lesson learned for the future. hopefully I can at least get my laurel.

Ok, so apparently I finished the daily on a different alt without realizing it.

You can only claim the reward on the character that finished it. And there is an XP award with the claim, see screenshot.

Anyways, case closed, lesson learned. Feel free to lock the thread.
