GW2 ramblings, annoyances, & plans
Dec. 2nd, 2014 11:05 pmRight now my guardian is stuck at the Silverwastes because I just need to kill the freaking Legendary Demolisher in order to complete the achievement, and yet my luck with it has been HORRIBLE. I spend a lot of time standing uselessly around Indigo Cave, just praying for it to show up, checking LFG like a madperson in case some kind soul is taxiing people into a map where it's appeared...sigh.
The good thing about the Silverwastes, though, is that it's practically a money-printing machine. Seriously, over the past week I made something like 40 gold from Silverwastes activites + daily Tequatl runs. It's nuts.
I really wanted to complete the Luminescent collection, because how can you resist the title "Light in the Darkness"? But I'm not sure if I can. Collecting the Mordrem organs/Carapace armor pieces is just a matter of grinding; the problem is the Living Story achievement rewards. I play games because I want to relax and de-stress; I avoid challenge modes like the plague. So I don't know. Sigh again.
Speaking of annoyances, am I the only one who's outraged that the Wintersday minis, which you previously got through completing the Wintersday achievement, are now being sold for gems?? ARGH. ANET, WHYYY. [EDIT: Apparently in Wintersday 2012 they were also for sale in the gem store, so...I guess this isn't new. Still, in Wintersday 2012 you also had a non-gem store method of obtaining them, so I'm praying that the same is true this year. I guess *technically* I could convert gold to gems (once the rate settles down a bit) and just buy the Mini Plush Griffon, but...eh, I dunno.]
Once I finally kill the Legendary Demolisher, I'm taking my guardian to try to do the Hidden Arcana achievements, and after that I'm going to try my hand at farming Dry Top for Geodes, since it's high time I got my lone fossilized amber insect out of my bank and did something with it. In the meantime, I'm farming iron with one of my alts because I want to speed-level some crafting disciplines to 400 (although I lack most Tier 2 and Tier 4 crafting materials, so...I might have to end up spending money to do that).
After I do the current Living Story with my sister, I guess I'll go back to farming Bandit Crests for the new Carapace armor pieces. I really want the Carapace Leggings and Boots for my guardian; she'll look super snazzy with them.
...
TOO MANY THINGS TO DO.
