Guild Wars 2

I got a horrible one:

What happened to the Pale Tree?
She became a vegetable.

Now that you’re done cringing… I also have a cheesy one:

What do you call a group of Sylvari lawyers?
A salad bar.

Let’s put it this way, warriors have gotten such a bad deal from this expansion that Rytlock has abandoned the profession to become a Revenant

If you gathered 170HP, the gap to 200-214 isn’t that wide and I managed it in about an hour and a half.

How did you get them so fast? Which maps did you use (i.e. are there any maps that are easiest to get to and have more challenges than others)? I have toons with very low map completion and it takes longer than an hour and a half to run the maps.

Well like I said, I already had 170HP from before when I thought that was all I needed. I only went for what’s available in PvE, which got me 201 total, so 170 to 201 is just a 31 point difference and that’s a breeze really. Although before expansion was announced, Inalways made it a point to get as many WPs as I can incase of events similar to Scarlet’s invasion and to do Guild missions, so I can just zip through most of it to get to HPs. There is a plus from the recent reveal though, a LOT of players seem to be scrambling for HPs right now so a lot of the challenges are easier thanks to the extra strength in numbers

This is just like what happened with the Tempest all over again. People took the datamined info as set in stone and once their anticipations were shattered, they got angry. I can certainly understand though, having myself already gathered 170HP for each alt in anticipation from the datamined info, being told so late that the final number is actually 400 feels like Anet deliberately moved the goalpost farther away.

Having slept on it to calm down however, I think most of us are fine. If you gathered 170HP, the gap to 200-214 isn’t that wide and I managed it in about an hour and a half. Plus I really think the final number to unlock the entire Espec, without the cosmetic stuff (most of which are kinda boring anyway), is actually 300HP give or take. So really you might just have to do 10 more HP challenges in HoT to get the full Espec.

Though I do hope that they’ll at least let us unlock most if not all of the traits (just traits, no healing, utility, or elite skills and skins) with the first 200HP so we can at least run around HoT with the new weapon skills and not feel weaker for it due to essentially running with a near empty specialization slot.
