Best WvW Reward Tracks and why?

I assume you are talking about the WvW exclusive tracks?

  • https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Gift_of_Battle_Item_Reward_Track
  • You get a GoB at the end you will need for legendary crafting (either a weapon or a stat swap WvW armour piece); on the way, you get various mats you need for that (Obsi shard, memories etc. + an Amalgamted Gemstone which is very hard to get without HoT-PvE play);
  • https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Triumphant_Armor_Reward_Track
  • You get quite a few siege loot boxes, but most importantly the choice of an exotic triumphant armour piece; Those exotic pieces unlock the ascended versions (which you can later upgrade to stat-swap legendaries), so you need to finish this track 18 times to unlock every armour; all triumphant armour have all available stat sets to chose from, which is not common for stat selection
  • https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Hero_Weapon_Reward_Track
  • again, lots of siege blueprints and a hero weapon in the end; Those hero weapons are only of the rare variety, so you most likely want to get those for the skin only or if you are a completionist
  • https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Legacy_Armor_Box
  • Legacy armours in the final chest as all of exotic quality pretty much the same as the triumphant track; those exotic pieces again can have all the available stats and some of them can't be optained otherwise (unless you are a PvP Veteran and had them unlocked before the wardrobe update

Historically, I've saved up the daily potions for Wintersday for gold. Otherwise, @Gorani.7205 has excellent recommendations.

Other options:

  • Non-repeatable reward tracks (for the 7-clover that most of them dish out at the end).
  • Dungeon reward tracks (for the AP from completing the respective collections)
  • Heart of Maguuma (for the map currencies, if you don't do there for PvE)
  • Maguuma Wastes (for geodes)
  • Crystal Desert (for collection skins)

an addendum to the Dungeon tracks:If you are not a happy regular dungeon runner in PvE, I would consider doing the tracks a few times to get 500 tokens to be able to buy the legendary crafting Gift from the dungeon vendor. Cruicible of Eternity and Arah are two dungeons I personally never liked and used PvP/WvW to finish collections & gain tokens.

lol and necro'd 🙂

Well done and put and good links, would agree. It comes down to what you are looking for. I also run the Living World Season 3 reward tracks since I quite often craft the "Magnanimous" utility items items that were added in them and need the special map currencies that are used in them. So hit up the wiki to see what's in each and look at items that you may not want to leave WvW to acquire but can instead get from the reward tracks. Good example next week the ToT bags will be up and if you need quartz crystals or chances at charged ones it will be a good time to move to that reward track if you don't have time to hit up the Maze.

FYI, they added "newly crafted" Magna, Boutiful and Furious Utils (Wrenches) as tradeable items on the tp earlier this year.

No problem.  I actually went on a scavenger hunt through the update notes.  Apparently it happened with the January 2021 update, so a bit more than "earlier this year" 🙂
