New SPvP Daily Achivements

in PvP

I sincerely believe that Anet was not aware of the consequences that would result from these additional achievements. Not only is it a massive time commitment that most players can not spare, it is also leading to a lot of angrier than usual players and I have seen a significant increase in pvp rage as a result; making the games much less enjoyable for everyone.

The last time they added tournament wins to the dailies there were reverted back in shortly after and I feel that this would be the case with these new ones too. The only problem is that there may very well be no one at Anet over the holiday period and we may be left with these for an extended period of time.

I believe the best thing for Anet to do is to revert the daily back whilst they still have people in the office. When they have the time they can then rethink them and hopefully bring out some suitable alternatives. The main thing is that we should not be left with these controversial achievements over an extended holiday period. They are causing a lot of stress and angst for many players who would ordinarily be looking forwards to their holidays and some free time to play GW2.

Managed to get this with no issue. Rather than relying on an invisibility, go the long way around them by jumping up on the ledge next to the shop.

500 AP for GW1 Hall of Monuments Intended?

Sure, getting 50/50 HoM required a lot of hard work. But the thing you must understand is that those in the top 100 or so on the leaderboard have also put in a lot of hard work and dedication towards their AP rank. Most of them were doing this long before the leaderboards came out but the leaderboard added an extra level of friendly competition; friendly yes as many of us frequently offer each other help and are in regualr contact with each other.

The addition of up to 500 addition points for certain players have had a large effect on the rankings and have left many feeling as though all their hard work the past couple of months in maintaning their ranking has been for nothing, I can completely understand this. If they had known Anet would throw a huge curve ball into the rankings a few months after it’s introduction I don’t think many of them would have even bothered the first place.

Many had question the integrity of the leaderboards in the past and this latest debacle has only made things even worse; in all seriousness they should just do away with the leaderboard entirely now as it is clearly shows little relevance to how much players have achieved in GW2. People have even started purchasing old GW1 accounts merely to gain ranks which imo just highlights how valueless these leaderboards have become; it should not be pay to win.

Bugged for me too, really annoying putting all that work into winning and not to have it count for the daily.

Only got Dungeon master just before the patch on the 26th. Managed to get the first 5 dungeons done for Dungeon Hobby Explorer but it now appears to be capped out at the 5 dungeons/ 5 AP. I have done several dungeons since and nothing seems to get it to reset so I can repeat the achievement.

I know the achievement was recently changed to have a cap of 200 AP, but it seems to be capping out at 5 AP for me.

Keg Brawl Cheating Issue

It’s an issue that has been around for months now. One of the reasons many people no longer play the mini game.

And it is cheating, a very clear case of exploiting. It involves using an ability in mid air and rotating the camera in a certain way to target much much further than the skill is intended to be used.
