I downloaded the client, and when I try to patch it gets stuck at checking for updates, 0%. I can play other games fine, and have a working internet connection. I am using Google’s Public Dns (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4). Help?

Dungeon token stealth nerf?

COF1 speed runners didn’t really do anything to ruin the ‘token’ business. I don’t see how COF speed runners can be to blame for the change to the daily token rewards for ALTs.

You fail to realize that that is exactly the reason.
It’s one of the main ways “alt-farming” generates gold for COF p1, and the most efficient way for “farming gold” in general. Each daily run on each alt gives 60 tokens, which is enough to buy and salvage 2 rares, which is ~2 ectos on average. Someone with 8 alts that runs COF p1 each day will get an additional ~18 ectos a day. This is on top of all the gold made from running the dungeon.

There’s probably better solutions out there, but this is the one anet has chosen. Another possible solution would be to make all dungeon gear un-salvagable just like karma gear. How would you have reacted to that?

Where's our Gauntlet Title?

They gave a title for Sanctum Sprint, why not for this Gauntlet?
Bump for great kittening justice!

If they made dungeon armor unsalvagable then I would argue to remove account bound daily tokens.

If all OP is enjoying are the rewards from CoF p1 farming, then
you know there’s more than 1 way of making gold right?
