Yeah fractals change with the time. :/

If you search others guides, I did this one before (I will translate the other guide for fractals HL when I can normally ^^) : https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/64293/guide-fractals-for-beginners#latest

I'm clearly bad in raid for the moment even if I had some achievements. So I will talk only for the easy mode :In reality if we take only the easy mode, we are 57% for the easy mode. So what I propose is : Do an easy mode to have the achievements/titles. (But not the achievements where we need to finish in normal/CM)Animations to explain strategy/best comp to have and to help peopleNo mobs ? (I'm not sure if it's a bad or good think so I put a "?" )No loots/No LI after bossWe don't need to have a big stuff to do the easy mode. NPC to help the group to kill the boss and talk to explain strategiesBonus to improve dodge/heal/damages (condi or not) if we give items or gold (or if it's our first time and if we didn't already kill the boss before)In easy mode, our stuff can't be broken, it stays invincibleAll bosses receives 2x more CC in fightPut daily achievements to do the easy mode of raids. It can permise to the good players to help others and come. I know if ArenaNet works on a easy mode, it will be maybe long and hard, but honestly, it's normal to have enough to be kick by "NO LI" when you have a brain. Before, I was lying and finally sometimes I was better than people who have 200KP+ (and I had achievements like that xD). I'm not the best player of the world but Brain > LI. For me, the easy mode is one of the best solutions to permise a new development of raids players/raids guilds.

Woohoo, I'm sure to make it rich with this kind of in depth information! I will not give bad informations, I don’t have all possibilities to craft too for the moment... Yes and no. It can be used to craft armor/weapons and many of them cannot be acquired by other methods (at least as reliably). It’s also necessary for mounts although griffon is the one you’d really need to grind for if gold is something you had issues obtaining in the first place. Some methods are not for new players, so it's for all people.

What ? XD A lot of things haven’t translated well. It’s a followable written guide, but many of the terms being lost in translation may be confusing for English only speaking players not already familiar with the game, the loot etc.“The Counter” Trading Post.“The objective is drop a high object (pink quality) as much as possible” So, Ascended to get Matrixes.So on...Hum ok I understand but the problems in MMORPG of translation are presents too, the french translation is often not exactly in english and that's why the guide has some mistakes.

What ? XD

Hum maybe but it's more safe and the T6 are best. I prefer to be sure because the prices of others often change. Prices do change but not as fast that a check before converting would be meaningless. You are willfully taking a hit in Gold per laurel because you don't want to check which bag is the most valuable for something you will covert 2 Minutes later? That's bad advice, sorry. Normally, the T6 are better, so it will be logic (even if people is not logic in this game when you see 8k gold for just one infusion...) that T6 have the best price. And when I saw on the Website of efficiency, all days, it had a big difference. Currently, the difference is 8s/laurel (Heavy Crafting bag = 53s81c/Laurel, Medium Crafting bag = 61s42c).It used to be a bigger difference than that too, and that could very well change come the next Legendary 2.1, and as I said, I can#t remember the last time Heavy Crafting Bags were at the top of the conversion rating, and I convert regularly, and check before I do so. It's still enough of a difference to check before converting Laurels to any crafting bag en masse. I would also omit your Beg addition to the guide. Purely because it is frowned upon in many communities.Ok and I know the n°10 don't bring a good reputation.

You can use too the heavy crafting bag with the items of the actual festival but this tactif is very long and not very profitable, that's the problem. But if you don't what to do with these items, now you know to have more gold ! :smile:

You can use the same method of laurels with the items of the actual festival but it's long and not very profitable. If you don't know what to do with these items, use it to have gold like that ! :smile:

I add too : another solution is to do ranked matches in PvP and do all chests 1 one time, you will have finally 65 gold, it's not nothing ! But this method can be very long and hard for you too. Each time you finish the last chest, you'll have 20 gold, it's very cool and the ranked chests can be important for you stuff, you can maybe gain again more gold like that ! :smiley:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MUkTYkoCnE I found that for Istan but the video is in spanish.

I'm not sure for SW because it's long. And for Istan, certainly but all people doesn't have PoF. The objective of this guide is to help all people even if they didn't have the expansions. For PoF, I don't know, I don't have it, so if someone can complete or do another guide and put the URL here, it will be nice ! :smiley:

There are many methods to farm gold and I tested some methods by myself. But before, I put the link of a video (for me the better that I found to farm gold (many methods are presented too); YouTube Channel : Kwarna Mania : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSnl2v-btuw WARNING : This video is french, but I will explain to you the methods in english, don't worry ! Here is the summary that I created for you :smiley: 00:00 - 5:45 : Contrées sauvages d'argent (SW) + CF5:46 - 7:00 : Lauriers (Laurels)7:01 - 12:00 : Comptoir (Counter) + Forge Mystique (Mystic Forge)12:00 - 14:57 : Karma14:57 - 16:16 : Donjons (Dungeons) + WORLD BOSS (Boss de Monde) Now, I'm going to present you to the methods I've tested or that I know : DAILY ACHIEVEMENTS (EASY AND ACCESSIBLE FOR ALL, WEAK GAINS)Here, it's very without go far, you win 2 gold/day when you do your daily achievements. You have to make 3 achievements of the proposed list. I do principally the PvP achievements that can end in a match if you win (it's maximum 15 minutes without counting the time of queue !). Others daily achievements exist in WvW et en PvE (exploration or harvest) ! DAILY FRACTALS (EASY - HARD, WEAK GAINS - STRONG GAINS according to your level)Exactly the same principle as daily achievements but for those concerning fractals) ([FR] voir aussi : https://fr-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/1548/guide-debuter-les-fractales/p1 et https://fr-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/3025/guide-fractales-master/p1 [FR]). Of course, the fractals T4 of high level will give you more rewards, loots, chests, infusions but more money too ! Don't forget to do recs too (recommended fractals). Once you have finished that in 1 day, you have to do most regularly and as much as possible. You can win easily 20gold/day ! LAURELS (BEST METHOD IN MY OPINION, VERY STRONG GAINS BUT NEED A REGURAR CONNEXION AND VERY LONG METHOD)Firstly, you need a lot of laurels, you spend the number you want to a laurel merchant by buying T6 Materials/Components Bag.These bags are named "Heavy Crafting Bag". There is a very close to the waypoint of the palace of the Divine Promontory for information (it's the one I know best even if there are others, it's just a few meters to the left when you come). Test 100 laurelsNumber of gold : 285g45s31c => 282po91pa17pcLoss of : 00g45s31c+02g00s00c+00g08s83c = Loss of 02g54s14c (up for sale/release) Gain of : 45g74s45c (Counter)Number of laurels spent : 100Number of "Heavy Crafting Bag" bought (T6) : 100 Final gain : 45g74s75c (Gain of counter) - 2g54s14c (loss) = 43g20s61cFinal gain : 328g65s62c - 285g45s31c = 43g20s31cFinal gain interval : {43g20s31c ; 43g20s61c} Problem of margin of error : 30c of difference between the 2 calculation methods(Interests/Counter ?) Final number of gold : 328g65s62c for 1 laurel (ESTIMATION)Estimated final gain (counter gain - loss) : 43s20,61c => 43pa21cEstimated final gain (final number of gold - initial number of gold) => 43s20,31c => 43s20cEstimated final gain interval : {43s20,31c ; 43s20,61c}Rounded of the estimated final gain interval : {43s20c ; 43s21c} Other Test : 300 laurelsNumber of gold : 328g65s62c => 320g93s65cPerte de : 6s35c + 7g65s62c = 7g71s97c (up for sale/release) Gain : 138g95s45cNumber of laurels spent : 300Nombre of "Heavy Crafting Bag" bought (T6) : 300 Final gain (counter gain - loss) : 138po95pa45pc - 7po71pa97pc = 131po23pa48pcFinal gain (final number of gold - initial number of gold) : 459g89s10c - 328g65s62c = 131g23s48cFinal gain interval : {131g23s48c ; 131g23s48c} No margin of error, identical results Final number of gold : 459g89s10c Comparison ESTIMATION - TEST 300 LAURELSEstimated interval for 1 laurel : {43s20c ; 43s21c}.Estimated interval for the test of 300 laurels (estimation x300) : {129g60s00c ; 129g63s00c)We got : 131g23s48c. Which is more lucky and better than the estimation.Bonus number of gold of the estimation : 131g23s48c - 129g63s00c = 1g60s48c Estimates can not be exactly the price obtained here because market prices change.Too, the bags do not always contain the same materials and the same number.The prices at the counter nevertheless remain similar and 1 T6 bag is still worth 1 laurel.The most expensive T6 material is: "Vial of Powerful Blood" (28s47c/u at the moment of tests)The cheapest T6 material is: "Pile of crystalline dust" (7s62c/u at the moment of tests) KARMA (EASY, WEAK GAINS, VERY LONG METHOD)Map : Bloodtide CoastNPC : Lionscout TunniraWaypoint at south of the aerodrome of lion's arch for information, it is very close to the capital city ! :smiley:Item to buy : Lionguard Cloth Footguards (287 karma/u)Or the same items in leather or in mesh (same price)The leathers items give more with the leather having a price higher at the counter (by my tests, possible that it changes !!!)You can also alternate fabric / leather / mesh to unlock some skins you have not had! The objective is to recycle with a master's salvage kit to sell the materials at the counter. Test 1 (Lionguard Cloth Footguards and sale of items without salvage)Then mystic forge : mettre 4x the item (287*4 = 1148karma)Value of the item obtained at the counter at the time of the test : 3s48c Estimation for 1 million of karma : ( 348 * 1 000 000 ) / 1148 = 30g31s36c (arrondi) IT IS NOT SUPER PROFITABLE TO SELL THE ITEMS OBTAINED DIRECTLY AS THE TEST INDICATES IT ! Test 2 (Lionguard Leather Footguards and salvage of obtained footguards)56 x Lionguard Leather FootguardsCost in karma : 56*287 = 16072 14 Boots obtained (The others materials were not taken into account) Materials obtained : 24 x "Rugged Leather Section" + 1 x "Coarse Leather Section" Initial number of gold : 122g67s24cLoss at the counter : 122g67s24c - 122g62s51c = 4s24c + 49c = 4s73cCounter gain : 85s20cFinal number of gold : 123g47s71c 85s20c/16072karma Estimation for 1 million of karma : 53g01s14c (round) Therefore, the salvaging of leather boots in the karma method is the best. STABILIZING MATRIX (HARD, VERY STRONG GAINS, SECOND BEST METHOD IN MY OPINION, METHOD THAT CAN BE LONG)The objective is drop a high object (pink quality) as much as possible named "STABILIZING MATRIX". We obtain these matrix by salvaging high rings (still pink quality). Once we get them, we sell them at the counter, simply! :smiley: Test 1Sale of stabilizing matrixx to the counter : 32g1c/u at the moment of testSalvage of a high ring (pink quality) during the testNumber of stabilizing matrix obatined : 20Price of Ascended Salvage Kit : 2 Fractal Relics + 1 gold (BUY-4373 NPC Fractals) Initial number of gld : 264g39s61c (The salvage was already done)Nombre de po après la vente : 264g07s60cPerte = 264g39s61c - 264g07s60c = 32s1cCounter Gain : 5g76s18c (because : prince of announce + exchange fees)Final number of gold : 269g83s73c 5g76s18c/ring5g76s18c/20 matrixEstimation pour le gain pour 1 matrice : 5g76s18c/20 = 28s80,9c => 28s81c (rounded). META-EVENTS/WORLD BOSS (EASY, AVERAGE GAINS, GENERALLY FAST MEHOD, NEED HEART OF THORNS)Another method is simply to farm the meta-events. Not only, Not only will you earn gold and karma for the purposes of the events, but you will also be able to win chests containing valuables. You can eventually earn other currencies and XP depending on what you do. Achievements and masteries add to the meta-events for most of the time! :wink: To help you : https://wiki-fr.guildwars2.com/wiki/Horaires_des_événements CRAFTING AND HARVEST (GAINS AND HIGH-DEPENDENT TIME OF CRAFTMANSHIP, ITEMS AND PRICES)Don't forget that if you have one or more possibilities to craft at maximum level (500), you can craft things with your materials, what can you earn money depending on what you do ! Your gain, however, will be very dependent on the job and the price of what you will sell at the time of your tests ! For the harvest, always buy mithril tools of preference, you will have more items and you'll can collect all the materials of high level without break them !Otherwise you will have poor quality ... (PS : Possible to buy tools of untied magic if you need it, but you will have only 50% of the quantity bought in mithril). FESTIVALSThere are several seasonal events in GW2: Lunar New Year (or Chinese New Year), SAB (Super Adventure Box), Shadow of the Demented King (Halloween) and Wintersday (Christmas). During these times, remember to farm a maximum of daily activities and items to sell them, it always serves! During Halloween the maze gives a lot of karma and gold over time ! Regarding the Winter, presents ("Wintersday Gift") are worth little but you can have a lot and sell them directly or sell food and drinks that are worth a few coins. For Lunar New Year, there are envelopes and essences of luck. Finally for the SAB, I can not really say, I have not tested to farming gold in this event, moreover I do not really know if it is profitable and it is not the main purpose of this seasonal event (which I do not like at all xD). XP/BASH MOB (EASY, ACCESSIBLE FOR ALL, LONG METHOD AND NOT FUN)When no method suits you and you are new, even if this method is not fun at all, if it is your only solution, it will have to stick to it (but it is in the case of the last resort because XP is very easy in this game). Bash mob is about killing mobs again and again for XP, so you can take advantage of picking loots to sell to the merchant and you make a little gold. Of course it's long, boring and it does not give much, but when you go XP, you will receive chests that can give you things to sell. BEGSo obviously this is a very deprecated method, but you never know, even if this method is a troll method, it can work. But do not expect people to be super nice and have a good image of you. You can now swing your "I wanna gold plz" in map tchat ! :joy: MY TOP OF METHODS TO FARMING GOLDN° 1 : LAURELSN° 2 : STABILIZING MATRIXN° 3 : DAILY FRACTALSN° 4 : META-EVENTS/WORLD BOSSN° 5 : FESTIVALSN° 6 : DAILY ACHIEVEMENTSN° 7 : CRAFTING AND HARVESTN° 8 : KARMAN° 9 : XP/BASH MOBN°10: BEGAnother guide : [FR] J'en profite pour mentionner aussi le guide de @Loup Solitaire.9082 qui peut vous aider (en espérant que ça le dérange pas que je mette ça là :tongue: ) ! : https://fr-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/835/guide-trucs-et-astuces-xp-karma-po-etc [FR] Last precision: All these methods are accessible to all except in the case of accessible meta-events only if people have at least Heart Of Thorns. No method here requires the Path On Fire extension. Final Tips: Remember to explore and increase your magic discovery (or even your bonuses of gold, XP and karma from the account with objects, buffs or anything else!), It will help you a lot! In addition, remember to connect regularly even if you do not play necessarily. Log in at least once a day as much as possible to take your connection chests and thus ensure you have better chances to have them !
