GW2: Recent Accomplishment Thread

[Corrderio]

I am, but haven't really done much except grind out for my legendary.

[blindSharingan]

I still jump on to knock out whatever new living world stuff is added than go back to XIV. I'm really hoping anet changes their stance on the expansion thing.

Also got my halo yay

[Franzer]

I still play as well in between ffxiv, just posting here is like posting in a graveyard. Reddit and neogaf are probably the best places anymore. It would be nice if this thread got more traffic again though.

[Corrderio]

I'm hoping to have something soon, but all there really is to do in the game is grind for money at this point.

[Arcana]

GW2 is like that fat chick you bang, you wanna tell folks you got laid, but it really doesn't count cause she's fat.

i still play, but thanks to the huge time sink that is real life i don't get to play as often as before. thankfully that means i still have stuff to do but makes grinding those achievements a bore.

[Celeras]

Oh, hello! Last... 4-6? or so patches have been home runs for me and I'm still havin a lot of fun when I play. I'm glad the Living World actually became a thing that wasn't terrible.. although I could probably WvW forever and never get bored. Wurm and Marionette were both great. LA kind of wow'd me in scope, and I hope it stays this way or gets worse (nuke it, Primordus!). Would be kind of bummed if we rebuilt it hub 2.0.

No accomplishments really to brag about since Wurm, but I did drop like 90g or w/e it was on a Zodiac set and make myself look like one freaky motherfucker.

Spoiler: show

[blindSharingan]

This last patch has been better than what we've been seeing so far for me but I need a legit expansion. Living World over time may be able to provide an "expansion worth of content" but it's too little too slowly. Living world should be used to fill the gaps between expansions not try to completely take their place. I really want a reason to be more invested in this game but LW just isn't doing it for me.

An improvement to story telling/delivery and less zerg content are also on my wishlist

[Corrderio]

I'm hoping the changes to berserker armor come soon. A guildmate said they were going to do something to try and level the field so Berserker gear isn't the end all, be all gear everyone is wearing in PVE. Would be nice to play my Guardian as more of a front-line support/DPS instead of a glass cannon.

[Arcana]

I bought the zodiac armour and my warrior looks like a sexy bitch, dunno why so many complaints about the blue particle effects, people bitching from the preview in the gem store not showing how nice it actually looks.

[Corrderio]

I like the particle effect, though it really doesn't suit my tastes.

Anyway, 1 heirloom away from having my halo. After that I need to grab my devil horns then keep my nose to the grinder since the light at the end of the tunnel is getting closer and closer.

[Corrderio]

Got my Halo and about 20% of the way towards my Devil Horns

[Kiarax]

I haven't played in months but my halloween skins are worth enough to straight up buy a legendary or two now. Grinding is for suckers. How long does it take to get this halo pot and is it just grinding one unbearable event 5ever?

[Corrderio]

You need 250 heirlooms. You get them from the "Group Event" bags that drop when a certain number of citizens are found and you can find them in piles of rubble. There are 40 piles in LA and they're account bound so you can only examine that specific pile of rubble once per day, even if you change overflows.

[Kiarax]

Guess it's time to get mah grind on, luckily the horns look dreadful to me so I won't waste my time on that!

[Corrderio]

I'm going for them because I'm kind of a completionist. Just wish they didn't cost so friggin much.

[Kiarax]

Usually I'd be with you but most of the living story stuff hasn't been interesting enough to pull me back, I can't keep up with ridiculously grindy events every 2 weeks so I've just taken to coming back for the good parts or missables I want. Kinda mad I missed the Marionette but it seemed a little zergy anyway. Hopefully they can pull off a low man version in Fractals later on.

[Corrderio]

I'd love to see more party based dungeons or something like that in the future. And yeah I agree the game can get boring, but eh, still better than my other choices for an MMO.

[Corrderio]

Grats! I logged in to try and work on halo and was getting 5 FPS in LA... laptop overheated in under an hour, lol. New one should finally be arriving this week since I ordered it a couple weeks ago, how long do I have to get the halo? If not long is it possible to just buy heirlooms somehow? Don't mind dropping some gold on it if I don't have time to farm.

[Corrderio]

The next update is this Tuesday, but I'm assuming you can still find heirlooms. Sadly, they're account bound so you can't buy them.
