Guild Wars 2

So, when I hit emerald it was at 1/2. Hit sapphire and its still at 1/2.

So does sapphire not count as moving up a division? Spoken to multiple people all have the same thing. Can we get clarification that this is intended? Just curious as to why emerald would count but not sapphire…

ALSO just to add. I don’t care if that is the case. It should be hard to finish these achievements. Just doesn’t make sense emerald would count but a higher division wouldnt.

I’ve been wondering that too. I’m also in sapphire right now, but still only at 1/2.

You need to reach Ruby to progress it

But why? That’s what we’re asking. Because that seems incredibly misleading.

Crossing from amber to emerald = 1 division cross.

Crossing from Emerald to Sapphire should also be one, should it not?

edited to add: Emerald is specifically labeled as division 2, and sapphire as division 3 on the league tab. As far as the information has been presented to us, Emerald and Sapphire are two separate divisions and crossing from one to the other SHOULD bump up the achievement.

You need 1 league cross for the first meta achievement. After crossing 1 league division the achievement for the 2nd meta unlocks. That one requires 2 division crossings. In total you need 1+2+3+4 = 10 division crossings if you want to do all 4 metas.

I crossed into sapphire while still in the first meta. I have not crossed a division threshold yet while in the second meta.

So one division cross carried over upon unlocking the second meta. But not the other.

Counting the Legendary division, there are 6 divisions. Unless you can bounce between ruby, diamond, and legendary, the achievement requires more division crossings than are actually available. And forcing people to lose in order to cross backwards into previous divisions (if that’s even possible) seems like a bad idea. Unless repeating Legendary also counts as crossing a division, even though it’s Legendary into Legendary.

So I’m more inclined to believe that something is bugged, or something has yet to be revealed. Or it’s just really badly worded and needs to be explained by someone in Anet.

Although, reading the tooltip, maybe they just expect this to be done over the course of 2 seasons, if seasons reset your division rank. Which would be fine, just unclear. Regardless, I don’t expect any of this to be easy, I just think we could really benefit from some clarification.

1) Legendary Division is repeatable
2) Anet said even the best player will not be able to complete all requirements for the legendary backpack in one season.

Ok. I kind of figured it couldn’t be done in one season and didn’t expect it to, but that’s not the issue. The tooltips for League Veteran should be rewritten to clarify what counts as crossing in each meta. I also know Legendary is repeatable, I said that in my response.

League Veteran does not unlock until you completed League Recruit. So it makes sense that it starts from scratch like any other achievement you have to unlock first.

It didn’t start from scratch though, it already started with 1/2. So it already carried over one division crossing.

If that’s intentional, then we need the tooltip to clarify why that is.
