You can easily do a google search and see that there are players that find grind fun. For them grind obviously isn’t bad therefore your assertion that it is universally bad is incorrect. When someone makes a claim, it’s expected that they back it up and not rely on others to prove them wrong.

If they might as well not exist, why not just ignore them?

The intention was likely to get players to experience all aspects of the game. Plenty of people still do dungeons.

I don’t see it happening as one of their methods of producing different skins is to just recolor them. Here are several green skins that you could use with likely many more available. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bramblethorne_(skin) https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Defiant_Glass_Staff https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Dominator_Staff https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Dreamthistle_Staff https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Jade_Tech_Staff_(skin) https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Venombite_Staff

You don’t speak for everyone.

Those achievements progress by the steps completed. You don’t have to do them all multiple times. I think only one of them required me to work on the set of tasks for a third time but I didn’t need to complete the entire achievement again. I did those achievements and they really were not that bad at all.

You made the initial claim so it’s on you to back that up.

Except that grind is also often used positively and actively sought for. The term “grind” isn’t inherently good or bad. Someone’s perception of grind is based on their personal preference to that type of gameplay. If they don’t like it then it’s bad. If they enjoy it then it’s good.

Do you have evidence to support that grind is universally bad?

When you give them another source, especially one that isn’t timegated, they become easier to get. They’re now 70 silver each which is a large drop from the 2+ gold at the beginning of the year. The price may continue to drop. As far as how acquiring them, players can obtain at least 88 a month.

It’s actually exactly what you want.

You’re going on the premise that grind is universally bad which is not the case. There are many people who enjoy grind. Your opinion on it is nothing more than a preference.

The issue is that you want mystic coins easier to obtain so you can get whatever that you need with them quicker. This would reduce the passive income other players make and not just those with multiple accounts.

You have absolutely no right to determine who does or doesn't have a say in how games are designed. That's toxic AF.

They're already at like 40% of their price from before EoD. I'd rather there not be a way to farm them which will just crash the price further. All of this just so you can get whatever you need that requires them quicker but at the expense of those that enjoy having a steady income from login rewards.

Fishing is fine as it is as it's a side activity to do when you're bored. That said, they could do something about fishing stacks persisting across instances of the same map.

Huh? Your point is the exact opposite of what you have been saying throughout the thread? You’re free to have your own opinion on how someone should play the game. Where it becomes an issue is when you try to enforce that view onto others.

I’m assuming that you haven’t been on a populated and highly utilized discord server. It’s not a gen z thing as people of all ages use discord.

Better functionality.

They don’t die instantly so it’s not like it matters. The key is to look at the map for the ping and not sit there waiting for someone to tell you where to go.

The new Cantha map wasn’t specifically called out for this year. It could come out this year or it could just as well come out next year.

For convenience.

As I had said to the other poster, just because you do not enjoy it, does not mean that others do not.

There are people that enjoy grinding and efficiency. Why do you assume that only how you want to play the game is the correct way?

If you don’t then you really should take a second look at your posts.
