So, although you wont be able to get to the "physical" location in game you will be able to access the reward UI and claim your rewards that way. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understood the Wizard's Vault is a place... not a window in the game. Perhaps I misunderstood. The Black Lion Trading Company is also a physical location in the game - they have an office in Lion's Arch, but you can use both the Trading Post and the Gem Store without ever visiting them. I suspect the Wizard's Vault will be similar, you'll be able to go there to see some of the rewards in the world (maybe the new griffon) and to get a different way of interacting with the system but you can do everything you need to do through the menu. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony.8659 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 What about the laurels? Will we still be receiving them as we usually do? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Gold, Laurels, Mystic Clovers, and Mystic Coins can all be purchased in the Wizard's Vault for completing your daily objectives. Daily achievement points will still be available as well, you'll earn them by completing your Wizard's Vault daily objectives. Logging in gets you 5 astral acclaim; no info yet on how much acclaim you need for the various items. The other items that you can get from just logging in (luck, materials, tomes, booster, exotic chest, black lion goods, chest of loyalty) haven't been mentioned yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony.8659 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Oh ok thanks, now I see it now "Gold, Laurels, Mystic Clovers, and Mystic Coins can all be purchased in the Wizard's Vault for completing your daily objectives." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanBB.4268 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 At the top of the image for the Vault, it shows "Wizard's Vault...Objectives...[Shift + H]" so I assume Shift+H will bring up the shop from anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaspodin.9207 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) There are many days where I'm too busy to do anything BUT login and collect my daily reward.... taking that away from us in exchange for a currency that has to be earned through objectives is not a good idea. if this info had been made available months ago, i probably would not have prepurchased the expac and would have sat it out to see if ANet changed their mind Edited August 19, 2023 by Gaspodin.9207 cuh 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it will have similar value to old login in reward system. If you lets say pick golds/mystic coins/laurels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dovahkiin from HighRock.46 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Playing ESO I see in ANet changes, putting the same daily system but without the login rewards. In GW2 it's the primary source of T6 and Legendary components without going insane grinding like doing a 2nd bad job. There is also another things which makes me really angry this time is the spend your "lvl 80 gift" if you want to do dailies. If you (ANet) want players to squander the booster then remove it. At least it will be honest. If the removal of T6 source and leg comps is confirmed, I'm also throwing over any legendary creation. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draknil.1860 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I am grateful for this change as it freed up a lot of my disk space with one less game I need to worry about logging into each day for its reward. Thank you ANet, you did me a great solid. 3 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you ANet, you did me a great solid. Same here. I havent been playing for quite some time but I keep logging in every day to get the reward on the off chance that one day I might be back-. With this change I can finally put GW2 behind me and uninstall, so I welcome this change. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaxx.2318 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Same for me. I tried to login daily over the last few years, first to not miss out any of the living story stuff, the login rewards were an ice bonus etc. I even spent gems on increasing inventory space to store everything in case I some time get the expansions and start playing again (given enough spare time etc.). But not this way. I religiously do daily and weekly tasks in ESO (plus grabbing login rewards), because they're also simple and I typically don't have to go out of my way to get them done within like 5-10 mins. I certainly won't do the same with a second game and in this case GW2 clearly loses for me, mostly because of the annoying inventory management/upgrade system. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neptune.6054 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 It's sad to see a game I loved so much become this greedy, it's clear they wanna boost the market again by taking away the log in rewards but it just makes me sad, they don't release good fun content anymore all the writing of the last expansion and LW were bad and the story was awful, it's sad but I doubt this game will last much longer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiomet.5063 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Aww. I am a bit disappointed that the daily login reward is not happening anymore. I had this thing where I logged in each day (one account only) and when I collected 47 experience books (so that took a while, of course, because they are not the reward every day) I purchased a new character slot and started a new character. OCD much? So, I have 21 characters and I guess there will not be any more. I sort of looked forward to logging in each day and getting the little box of goodies... and I did not do it for the gold. All the goodies are still in my bank. I do not get that much play time so starting my new characters and playing them happily for an hour here and there, without stress of competitive higher level areas, was a fun unwinding. Not just that but I spent a fortune customising my characters. I had a lot of investment, for a pensioner, in Guild Wars! Ah well, nothing lasts forever. It was fun while it lasted and I played the way I liked for a long time. New worlds to conquer now! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just bought the deluxe version of the expac... and I feel like Anet has taken my 'pension' away as a long time player... (I pre-ordered this game in 2007 and have been playing since pre-release!!) Even for players who do the daily achieves, these changes are bad. For players like most of us who don't do them, these changes are horrible. If Heroic Edition accounts were that much of an issue, then their logins should have been nerfed, not everyone else's. ANET LOGIC: "Hey no one want to do our Daily Achievements, what should we do? Make the content more fun? Nah, let's just punish players for not doing them." I will be strongly recommending my friends to not buy any expacs, especially the new one, until Anet fixes the mess they've made here. Until then I'll to get used to not having Tomes of Knowledge, Laurels, Mystic Clovers, etc, because I'm sure as hell not doing Daily Achievements for something I used to get for free. Edit: I've actually never felt a stronger reason to play BDO instead of gw2! BDO might be grindy, but for log in rewards you get gold and makeovers and outfits and all kinds of stuff. GW2 cannot compete with that now. Edited August 31, 2023 by Ankhi.7162 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
