As you have most certainly noticed ... We are January 29th and the update Cold and Flame: Prelude is now live on the Guild Wars 2 servers!
I invite you to read the Patch notes of the game which really brings a lot of content. Did I sort all of this out for you to find your way around better?
A post on the official website very recently highlighted some of today's content, so we're going to discuss that a bit.
Matt Wuerffel, one of the game's designers, tells us a bit about new rewards and succès recently modified.
So you have understood if you read our articles regularly, the fact of achieving success will give you laurels :
- A laurel for completing each category of Daily Achievements;
- Ten laurels for the monthly success category.
Laurel Buyers have been added to all major cities in Tyria and offer a variety of rewards.
For example:
- Des Utility infusions: new category of infusions that improve non-combat stats like gold mining and experience gain.
- Des Elevated Amulets: offensive, defensive, and utility variants of the next high equipment slot.
- Des High rings: agony-free versions of the high rings of the Fractals of the Mists.
- Des Craft Apprentice Kits: Unique purchases (once per account) that contain everything you need to get started in each of the eight crafting disciplines.
- Des McM Plans: everything you need to rain fire from heaven on your enemies in the Mists.
- Des Assistance objects: new augments, advanced harvesting tools, and crafting trophy bags.
- Unique Miniatures: Goedulf, the mythical Cub spirit that protects lost Norn children, and my favorite, who came second in the contest for the most beautiful cat on Divine Promontory, Chauncey von Charade III !
Regarding achievements, it will now be possible for us to complete only a subgroup of a longer to-do list. Thus, it will be possible for us to choose what to do to complete the desired success.
This list will change every day in order to vary the pleasures and to discover new places, we will only have to choose the things that we most want to do without it being off-putting! ?
We discussed it on the gw2-guide forums, indeed, for the moment, the laurels can only be won when we achieve the proposed successes. Later, during the second phase of laurels, we will earn these points retroactively according to the achievements already unlocked! (Source)
Laurel content will of course be developed as the game grows.
► What do you think of this system? Will it motivate you more to explore the game from all angles? ?
► What is the first thing you plan to buy from the laurel vendors?
