... quest-like achievement-structure.

With the worst being task collections which have to be completed in order, e. g. Frode's Journal which even forces you to do/repeat the 3 SotO metas in a specific order or it doesn't count,

W T F !

World vs. World
  • Fixed an issue that could cause incorrect map queue numbers to be displayed.

I wonder whether this also fixes the two-based array issue in PvE, i. e. when your position is n+1 in a queue of length n.

And still there are quite a lot of players who seem to like doing rifts. Which is the actual scary part to me. If using the Open World Legendary Armor as a Carrot on a Stick is enough to sell this uninspired, repetitive, boring and terribly implemented grind to enough players, there is litttle reason for ArenaNet to put effort into explorable content.

Then it looks like I got it ... though you could have made it easier for people to understand your point. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I don't think there are DBM-like Addons for GW2 (BlishHUD Timers is the closest I could find), but maybe ReShade could be used to emphasize the effect by boosting or modifying certain color values.

I think that this is an area where GW2 could still improve a lot. I wish it had more options to reduce visual clutter and less variety in how (important) visual cues look on the screen. It appears like developers have a lot of artistic freedom when they design those effects.

Not quite, and of course I looked up the crafting prices and possible profits on GW2Efficiency as well as the price trend on GW2TP.

Doing Tier 1 Rifts without receiving Kryptis Rift Extraction containers has very poor rewards and doing Tier 2 and/or Tier 3 requires very expensive Kryptis Motivation consumables which means you either need to join (leech) a Tier 2|3 Rift Hunting Squad (those appear to be rare) or organize one yourself and try to share the costs. But maybe Iโ€™m not quite getting it.

Your strategy seems to require other people to buy or craft Uncommon Kryptis Motivations, so you can do Tier 2 Rifts for Essences of Greed (green) which you use to craft and sell Rare Kryptis Motivations for Tier 3 rifts which you are not interested in yourself. I can see how this system is destined to collapse.

When you remove a legendary weapon from an Equipment Template, it looses all customizing and upgrades (put into inventory). Re-equipping it with the same stats, look, and upgrades is a lot more fiddling than re-equpping an exotic or ascended weapon from the inventory.

Do you mean "Wagen des Volkes" == WV or "Vault of the Wizard" == VW`?

I think there is a rather wide consensus that this indicates the date of the first major update in the game's new Expansion Cycle, though we can't be sure of course.

I couldn't agree more. I wish I could unlearn/disable this mastery (for gliding, too). Or even better, add updrafts to all maps and remove ley-lines entirely.

Isn't the Searing Cauldron Hero Point exactly the one that was bugged for weeks, i. e. didn't work at all? Which would mean their fix was bugged and introduced a possible exploit?

I'm a sucker for anything movement related, because it always feels like a breath of fresh air to be able to traverse/explore the maps in a different way. My prediction is that those flying mount masteries will hit it out of the park for me, no matter how underwhelming the rest of the mini-expansion might be.

You might even skip the exotic tier for trinkets, because amulets, rings and accessories of ascended or even legendary quality (though most require Living World) are relatively easy to acquire. Not owning Living World pretty much locks you out of the more "fancy" stat combinations, but you can get ascended trinkets with Berserker and Celestial stats from Laurel vendors.
