Prophet of Flames.2783 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Yes, they will all get removed. Use another character if you don't want to lose buffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyninja.2954 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Yes, they will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veprovina.4876 Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 I see. Thank you.It's been a long time since i did SAB, do i need something special for it? Or deos it have its own mechanis instead of profession ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynder.2509 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 There's even a warning for that before you enter the box. Unfortunately there's no warning when going in with the invitation item. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But note the unlocks you earn in SAB are per character and not account. So it is probably best to stick with the same character for SAB unless you really want to earn them again on another character for some reason. Guild Wars 2 Efficiency has an SAB tab they show when SAB is live. It will show your characters, their progress and unlocks. So it might be worth a look if you did it in the past to see what character might be better to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that warning is what prompted me to ask as i wasn't sure on what buffs that applies. @JustTrogdor.7892 said:@Veprovina.4876 said:I see.

If it's significant i'll then use my main and dump that 8 hour boost.I'll look at GW2 efficiency but can you give a quick example? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the complete list:https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/List_of_Super_Adventure_Box_upgrades_and_skillsEdit: Also I didn't use a main character because of the fact that buffs are deleted when entering. That way I could still use that character for out of SAB play and not have to worry about the buff thing. Instead I have a character I don't often play for SAB.

Yeah, i mean, i guess if profession, level and stats don't matter, then it doesn't matter which character i play SAB with. I'll just make sure i stick with one so that i don't have to double unlock stuff. Nice! :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danikat.8537 Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I had the same problem, I had about 10 hours left on a celebration booster and wasn't keen on losing it. But I really didn't want to start over with getting all the upgrades, and I've got 74 birthday boosters and 56 celebration boosters in the bank so it's not like I'm running short.I might finish getting the upgrades on one of my other characters though, just so I have more options for who to play.

I mean, i doubt it but just asking. :tongue:Also, they're permanent once you unlock them right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they're permanent once you unlock them, so they carry over from one year to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About HoT era though, so idk if he has all the unlocks but i'm tempted to try lol. Still, i mean, if it doesn't take long to unlock the stuff, then i'll just keep the bonus and play another character.I tried the infantile mode today just to see where everything is at and completed world 1, unlocked the candle lol.I guess other unlocks are bought? I saw a shovel, wasn't sure if i have to re-buy it every time. If not, that's great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthan.5236 Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Yeah. Wiki explains everything. Different methods of obtaining the unlocks. And I think they are per character (but permanent) - not account-wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
