I just want the shoulder attached to this year’s meta-achievement chest instead of the collection.

It actually makes very little difference, I am at 16/18, and 3 achievements left are 2500 candy, 10k drink, and 3x JP.

2 of them require you to open 10k+ gifts, so all it does just let people skip JP.

The repeatable ones count towards the meta aswell.

I wish, well, actually I don’t know, but pretty sure repeat for Toypocalypse and bell choir doesn’t, unless you mean I have to max them?

The repeatable ones count the first time you do them because I have the meta and have not done the jumping puzzle, drinks or sweets

So is it just me or do we really have to complete all of the achievement this year unlike other years where we could skip one. I count 24 achievements total with needed 18 to get the meta-achievement. There are 4 infinite ones which don’t count towards that meta and then Grawnk Munch and Generous Harvest I did last year and they already show as been complete but not counting towards that meata so that would leave 18. If thats the case I guess I won’t be completing it this year.

I have a character that was created before the trait change so I have all of the traits unlocked but I am wondering how I unlock the Grand Master tier since it tells me I cant add any trait points to the lines past master level but the trainers only sell the book for each trait not the old ones. This was just a character that I created and never really played so I never bought the books

Disappointed that F&F ends w/ a dungeon

To all those who refuse to do dungeon, I have one question for you:

Does this mean that you refuse to complete – or even do – the personal story, which similarly ends in a dungeon (Arah)?

I love jumping puzzles. I love open-world mini-dungeons that could be solo’d or done in large parties. I absolutely despise pugs and gw2lfg.com because they like to use the same boring tactics and run through as much as possible, which I don’t enjoy doing. But that doesn’t mean I’d ignore dungeons completely.

If I wanted to avoid player interaction, I’d just stick to my single-player games. And I do mean this honestly and sincerely: What is the point of playing an MMO if you’re going to avoid everything that requires playing with others?

A lot of people are taunting on this oddity, but it’s a legit absurdity that should be properly answered. I see it brought up a lot, but never answered except “it shouldn’t have to require player interaction” (dumbed down). But why not? It’s the entire purpose of the genre. I would normally hop on the bandwagon that says “if you don’t like it, don’t play it” but at this point it’s just something that makes me facepalm whenever I hear.

If you don’t want player interaction, or if you don’t want activities that require player grouping, then why just WHY are you playing a Massive Multiplayer online game?

I’m honestly befuddled by this aspect of your minds.

In answer to your question, Yes I have two characters that are through the personal story up to Arah. I also have 4 more that are around they start of the founding of Fort Trinity. I enjoy the personal story but none of my characters will complete it since I don’t want to do the dungeon. I enjoy the open world stuff since I can do with other people but I don’t actually have to party with them to complete the events. Now that been said I can see why Anet did it the way they did. I would be thrilled if it was changed at some point to not require a group but I am not going to hold me breath. I will just do what I do with all the time simply ignore the content I don’t like an do the stuff I like.

Well I am disappointed that it ends in a dungeon I am just doing what I do with any content I don’t like, I just completely ignore it.

How are you suppose to get 150 audio logs?

in Flame and Frost

Posted by: Phoenix.8640

Phoenix.8640

I only need like 20 more logs to get to 150. Of course I did this because I hate jumping puzzles so much that I would rather kill 150 periscopes. Also just is case you didn’t know it is one log per periscope per day.

Is the monthly too hard?

Well I have yet to complete a monthly, mostly cause I do not really care for dungeons and WvWvW but that is my choice. This monthly is probably the closest I will come to completing it. Even with the laurels as an incentive I choose not to complete them. Now if Anet adds the options to only do a subset on them I might reconsider finishing them.
