Danikat.8537 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Since there seems to be some confusion, the OP is talking about this item: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Emblem_of_the_AvengerThe only way to get it is by killing 100 players in WvW, so it's not available in any other game mode. Currently it's only use is in upgrading the WvW legendary ring Slumbering Conflux to the version with effects. Which means anyone who plays WvW regularly is going to end up with far more of them than they need.At the moment it can't be sold to merchants, converted into any other currency or used for anything except upgrading the legendary and deleting it requires you to type the name out, which makes extras annoying to get rid of. Adding the ability to convert it into a currency would solve that problem, and making it a WvW currency ensures you're not getting something you can't currently get from exactly the same activity which gives you the Emblem of the Avenger.

trixantea.1230 Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 It would be better if even they give something like "consume to get 3 WvW tickets" or at least 3 badges of honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telyn Ethuil.6908 Posted May 29, 2020 Author Share Posted May 29, 2020 I don't mind the various ideas and points here. But I don't think having WvW items being able to be converted into anything other than coins, karma, or WvW currencies (of indeterminate nature) is wise. You can't get raid tokens in Fractals, PvP, or WvW, and it's best that way. Keep endgame modes separate to allow them to be their own agencies. But what do I know? I'm just the dork on the forums moaning about an emblem. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will encourage bandwagon even more, overstacking of 1-2 servers to kill enemies 24/7, make huge profit, repeat. If you're on a European fight server, you can get 5+ of these in 2 hours after reset or on primetime. People don't bandwagon for a few extra silver....

Mauzi.5892 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 OR ... just make the achievement two-time only, so you get them for your rings and make the "new" repeatable achievement drop no rewards.This way you get your two emblems for your rings, your bank stays clean and ANet doesn't have to come up with some currency conversion, which inevitably will be a shot in the foot, because people always complain and/or find a way to exploit it.Or take the easy way out and make them cost 1 silver, so we can vendor them.Those things are NOT there to make money off of them. And intentional mass killing, zerging, feeding... should not get rewarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Pj.2193 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 50 = Gift of Exploration.... ?But it also wouldn’t surprise me if they released an item later that took 250 of them. Maybe another legendary trinket.. Who knows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lodjur.1284 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 Having them be a currency would be nice, having to dedicate 2 inventory slots on every char I do WvW on is pretty annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know that emblem of the avenger is wvw currency right?You get it for killing 100 players in wvw....Which the op is asking to exchange it for other wvw currency...

Divirel.4953 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 A vendor item, sure. But I also think they should be worth 10s to 30s worth~10s being because Wvw items are wvw items and we know what is gonna happen to stuff that is suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avey.4201 Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 1 to 50 ratio for high $ mats would be very bad for the market, but they should at least have a merchant value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riba.3271 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Well they're good for boasting how many kills you got.Guess you should be able to trade 1 of them for same stuff as whats included in skirmish chests. Nothing like 50 memories of battle... That would crash the market.Emblem of conqueror should be worth more tho. Kills are so easy to leech. You can easily get above 300 kills in 1 hour during good times. Same number for objectives is less than 15 (1 objective per 4 min, sentries don't count).

Excursion.9752 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Create A one time reward track that takes 10 of them each time to unlock.Reward track should have a fairly decent loot table. I was thinking something with twice the amount of mystic clovers and some good material drops. Something similar to the "Glory To The XXXX Achievements" in No Quarter.

Telyn Ethuil.6908 Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 I can sort of see where some people who are worried about the market are coming from, but I stand my ground on the Memories of Battle. The PvP equivalent is cheap as chips, and drop at the sneeze of a skritt. There is no reason why we shouldn't be able to have an alternative way to get more MoB.

It can be used to make the new legendary rings. Many of us who play WvW a lot, now have more Emblems of the Avenger than we have ring fingers on all of our alts. Yes, we could take time to delete them (which is mildly obnoxious), but there is this fear that Anet will come up with something else that these might be used for. If items can be be sold to a vendor, then at least it 'feels' like we won't be hit later with another legendary item that might take a large quantity of these. If say a legendary Avenger shield comes out that costs 2000 of these, and I've been able to get 5 copper from them, well then I can feel relieved that I at least got 20 silver out of the batch, and I can tell myself that I didn't want to spend a ton of gold on mats, anyway. However, if I cleared bank space the day before Anet announces such an item, it would be maddening. I have had Anet do that sort of thing to me, and probably so have others (I swear, Anet devs watch my account, and then giggle over how to mess with me..."See! She deleted them, yesterday! Let's announce that new legendary, today!" BUAHAHAHA) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
