While talking about the dailies in terms of wvw/pvp/pve, should there be a separate topic for disliking the wintersday dailies? Either way, I have to say almost all of my guild officers (and leader) has decided to not get the wintersday achievements for anything. They like snowball mayhem, and used to like Tixx’s room and toypolycapse, except they can’t seem to form a party. They have multiple reasons for hating the bell choir, and although they llike jumping puzzles, they don’t like holiday ones. As for me, I don’t like when the bells take a second to register what i pressed, that can make me lose a song until I figure the new pattern (usually it’s either wait one second later, or one second earlier. )

As for the new dailies, I do not like a fair amount of them. After doing some gathering and sight seeing in the Cursed shore, I don’t want to waypoint back to Dredgehaunts just to get 10 rocks. I also do not wish to participate in a 15 minute mission to slay the claw of jormag. I only do that activity when I have free time. Otherwise, I have to log into a character that’s level 78-80, waypoint to frostgorgesound, wait a few minutes for the dragon, and slay him for 15 minutes. Also, telling me I have to complete a scale 1-10 fractal makes me think that you’ll have a daily for scale 31-39. This makes me not want to go anywhere above 29 (not that I can since nobody runs those levels anymore, and the fact I do not like fractals, even if It’s only one instead of the four.) In wvw/pvp, I want to capture points. These are achievable and I have a good chance of success. Capturing a tower/keep/camp will require people to be online with me, and my wvw is being a bit inactive. Pvp, I did not like the old “win three games” achievement, and I certainly do not trying to win with a different class. If you want me to do pvp with a class I don’t have, you have to be kitten me. I have a hard enough time creating a good character name, let alone wining a game. You might as well replace that achievement with a dice that i have to roll once every five minutes, where if I roll a five or six, I get it.

Bloodstone dust: Tyrian steroids?

Since bloodstone dust is really crystal shards, and deplete health upon consumption, I would say any form of newly acquired power will be from adding bloodstone dust into various weapons/tools. What would happen if someone crafting a staff with just the tips as bloodstone? Maybe someone can craft a bloodstone ladle to make new food. Eating them raw or mixing in food, I don’t think so. We could try melting the dust into soups, but somebody else can try empowerment. I’ll stick to my not raw omnomberries .

Quaggans have sharks…

Is that a special case, because it was one quaggan that had a shark, and that’s a very tough shark for a pet.
Also, I like how just about everyone responding has a hint of humor at the end.

If you enter the blood tribune quarters and talk to Laria Sharpeye as an Asuran ranger (oddly specific), you’ll have a conversation where she wonders if Asurans replace pets with golems. You tell her that although rangers aren’t common, they do tame animals too. From what I recall, I only ever see humans with dogs, Sylvari have those fern hounds, Charrs have a Devourer, Norns can have anything from a Wolf to a drake, and Ogres have hawks. So has anybody ever seen an Asuran with a pet? Do Quaggans have anything similar? What about Hyleks?

@OP

You don’t need to do all achievements the first day. Do them in another few weeks when most people are bored.

I hope you’re right, because as an achievement hunter, I do not want to do the JP if people are going to try and kill me.
