Talia Auror.1405

Hello, I'd like an invite to the guild please...if you are still recruiting. My IGN is Talia Auror. Thank you!

Dear ArenaNet, I just finished the "Ruler of the Skies" achievement. To be honest, it felt a little flat and anticlimactic. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the easy volatile magic and the many opportunities to practice steep climbs on my skyscale, but I gotta say it was a bit...meh. Here's what you can do to spice it up. Let's change the reward a bit. Imagine, if you will, that these rifts have a bit more of a back story to them. Introducing the "Rift Daemon." See, you could tell the players that the rifts are actually occupied by a Rift Daemon (RD). Closing all those rifts ends up with the RD becoming your new friend. Why would this matter? Because having RD on your side would be useful. Here's two ideas on how RD might be useful: RD could enable node gathering from a longer distance -- or -- (and this is my favorite), RD could move into the player's home instance and take up residence on the shoulder of M.O.X. Why? Because then RD would guide M.O.X. into the daily gathering of your home instance nodes for you, and have it all ready for pickup when you enter the home instance. Now, I know, I know, this makes you nervous and you're reaching for the ban account button. But, before you do, think about it. First, nobody is getting anything extra. Home instance is still just home instance. As a matter of fact, if you wanted to stipulate that RD get's to keep something as her cut of the deal, then fine. I'm cool with losing a bit of the daily take for a quality of life improvement. Second, I think players (especially casual players) would have more time to actually play your best content rather than using what little time they have to scrape a few coins out of the home instance. Imagine, more time to play and enjoy the game and less time feeling like having a second job. So, ANet my friends, consider whether adding the "Rift Daemon" as a reward at the end of "Ruler of the Skies" can be done. I hope you give it some thought. Thanks!

Umm, I don't know about you guys but I've got a freeloading golem named M.O.X. in my home instance. As far as I know, this thing is literally a machine invented to free me (it's latest owner) from doing repetitive boring tasks. Since the effort I put in to acquire the thing apparently wasn't enough, I'd be willing to take on a some sort of "processor upgrade quest" or whatever in order to get him to do my home-instance gathering. Yes, I'd also be willing to buy something from the gem store to accomplish the same thing. If the quest based approach was used, I'd even be willing to let him keep 10% of the daily take to send back home to Webby.
