It’s So Shiny

I’ve been working on boss fights almost daily so that I can collect the ley-line essences and then craft some appearance weapons. There are two versions, shiny – and then you use those to create ultra shiny. I admit now, my main reason for wanting to craft them is to get the title. If you don’t get a chance to complete the collection while the event is running (I think there are just a few days left) you can also obtain these items through raiding. The chances of me raiding are slim to none, so I’m going the easier way.

I love that ArenaNet has had so many events lately, and I am hoping that they actually ramp up the closer we get to the anniversary (around 2 months from now). It has been fun logging in any seeing huge crowds gathered all working towards things. Happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!

Finding my Way to 5k Achievement Points

I mentioned that this has been one of my long term goals for GW2, reaching 5,000 achievement points and I’m almost there! At the time of this post I’m actually at 4,932 thanks to doing a few daily quests (they re-set at 6pm my time every day). I’m not sure why I had this magical number in my head, but it comes with a lot of perks. A new title, 400 gems, 15 gold, and a new appearance skin that I can choose. I know if I had played GW2 steadily over the years I’d probably be much higher in AP, but that’s alright, I’m quite pleased with the progress I have made.
