Is there a recommended way to get ascended gear? I asked in GOON chat about ascended accessories and got unclear answers.

^Do fractal dailies. You could also do spvp and wvw reward tracks but fractals are by far the best for ascended boxes. WvW reset was amazing tonight, great fun SFD

I've never done a fractal before, and I've hardly done dungeons.

i'm actually legit sad now that the maps are being changed back because merging servers together to up the population is like the best thing ever and takes care of pretty much the one big problem the new maps had

Proof that this is the best patch: My PVP scrub newbie self got an ascended chest drop from my daily fight! And, as it is the only way to choose, I selected the medium top because it is the cutest.

Sunday missions turnout has been abysmal lately, so I might do it in lieu of that for a while? I mean, higgsraid is at 9pm est. If we can line it up to where a hp train doesn't overlap it, then that'd be cool.

Yeah, a 9PM raid would cut right into the meat of when I'd want to be leading a train. Maybe a weekday then? Train Tuesdays, at 9PM EDT?

I should be on in half an hour or so, so worst comes to worst we can try to do the hp train with whoever shows up or pub it.

Ambi posted:Wait what pvp stuff can drop ascended gear? sPvP or dailies? Like others have said the loot boxes from spvp reward tracks have a small chance of dropping them. Also they're affected by your magic find level! I usually save a bunch up and then eat a ton of magic find boost and go to the silverwastes and then open them up. I think I've lucked out on 3 or 4 ascended weapon boxes doing that. Usually I have between ~450 and 600% magic find when I do this. Granted this requires a bit of spvping since you should save up 2 rewards tracks or so worth of boxes and then open them all at once.

Only PvP track loot chests work this way, since they are designed to simulate loot for players who don't PvE

The "Daily Adventure" is a nice idea, but you could do with a bit of better explaining, anet. Yesterday I ran around Tangled Depths, looking for a quest that sounded like the one I was supposed to do. Double checked if I'm at the correct spot, which is a bit hard in the new content when there are different levels and the map is flat. I guess I could wiki the name of the adventure, but is that really the point? In the end I finished five apparently unrelated events, with no chest or whatever at the end. I'm not even sure I want to try the same thing again today. Meh.

SFD DOES IT AGAIN, SCREWING PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR HARD WON LOOT.  This was after they where arguing that an Anet dev must have trolled them because only Anet can summon world bosses

Anyone done much of the HoT maps since the patch? How much easier is it to grind for currency and ascended materials for crafting 2.0 legionaries compared to before? I'm kinda keen to try out dungeons again since I only started playing after HoT, no one ever did dungeons. Ever. I feel like I was missing out on a huge part of the game.

You don't get the dungeon dailies for running around outside the door either. In fact, despite GW2 being a very casual game, most of the content does not actually reward you for just standing somewhere in its general vicinity without actually doing it.

To expand a little further - adventures aren't like other events where you can just be running about and do it just by being nearby, you have to find a particular NPC to talk to for each one. Generally they involve running through/around a course of some kind with modified skills, and either collecting things and/or trying to get to the end as fast as possible. Sometimes they'll be temporarily disabled if a map event is/isn't going, but I think they tried to mitigate that a little lately. Hurp Durp Master posted:Anyone done much of the HoT maps since the patch? How much easier is it to grind for currency and ascended materials for crafting 2.0 legionaries compared to before? The amount of stuff given out now is super generous. I think I opened more pods in DS last night than I did in the previous few months combined.

The loot is insane, especially the currencies. It's almost spiteful, like some dev flipped his lid and added zeroes to all of the drop rates. People do dungeons now. They did them before, but they do them now. And fractals.

No, the start point is always the same and the NPC (and a flag) is always there, just that the NPC will sometimes say something like "Sorry, you can't do this/the area is too dangerous right now. Help with *insert event here* and come back in a bit". They're all marked on the bigmap also. You really should just take a quick look at the wiki and you'll see what I mean.

Adventures are marked on the map by a guy with a cape. If there's a lock symbol over it, you can't do it right now. Adventures now only lock when the map is on nighttime meta or something particularly awful is happening in their immediate vicinity. Kessel fucked around with this message at 15:40 on Apr 24, 2016 |

Adventures now only lock when the map is on nighttime meta or something particularly awful is happening in their immediate vicinity. Ok I'm familiar with that symbol, so maybe it was just the limitations of the map vs. the multi-level layout of Tangled Depths that made it impossible. For those that don't know, the daily showed the location of the adventure near "Rata Novus Orchards". Maybe those doubting my cognitive abilites should travel there, and tell me that layout is not confusing. Also I disagree strongly with the idea of guilting "casuals" into "learn 2 get gud" for a new daily feature aimed at the average player.
