If you land a last hit only, don't really expect much to get any loot...
So far I am NOT very pleased with the loot though, especially when I start crafting... Feels the amount of what you looted so far is way less than what you need... And don't even talk about cooking ingredients

No, there is no personal score in WvWvW, only in sPvP.

In fact, what's the use of a personal score in WvWvW? It's not just a team-vs-team battleground, it is a bloody all-out war between servers!!!

If they don't do anything, they are not contributing, so no loot or XP for them. Their renown hearts are not filled up faster, nor will they receive the DE completion reward (or if they do minimal, they only got bronze-level contribution)

In fact, I have experienced some last-hit kill (where I joined in when the mob is almost dead, almost your definition of a kill-steal), and I am not credited with any loot nor XP.

from what i've seen as long as you dmg the mob once, you'll have a chance to get a loot.

wait i dont get this part, only the person that gets the last hit get loots? other ppl dont?

That's why this game is rely heavily on guildmate's contribution.. kinda communism structure

He meant last hit gets nothing or very little

For crafting I guess we'll need a combination of gathering and materials from loot to get enough of them.

Would like to correct you. For DE rewards, there are bronze, silver and gold, each with different level of XP, Karma and gold rewards.

Renown hearts are ONLY based on your contributions, and nothing else. You kill something, your heart fills up. This system actually encourages you to HELP others kill the stuff you are kiting. (Now, where's my ettins story)

Fixed.



See what mistabean posted above. Basically, it's unecessary to worry about loot.

i see...so basically there is still a dmg contribution system in this whole pve thing huh, if thats the case, lets say players with a more supportive role is gonna get lesser then?

I feel you.
Cookin ingredient is sure hard to come by.

Added on August 14, 2012, 2:55 pmNot really, I remember using my Charr guardian doing a DE that is a bit high level for me, so basically all I did was support, very little damage, but I still get gold for the DE.

interesting...thx for explaining guys

lol heart rewards sounds like Dragon Nest's npc heart rewards

where got communist , just do around 10% of the total damage can get loot already.

And for DE to collect some buffalo's meat,i returned only 6 meat but still received gold for the event.

Don't know about Dragon Nest heart rewards or whatever.

Renown Hearts are actually, once you peeled the skin off, the usual static quest in all MMOs. (or in WoW terms, the man with the ! sign)
In all actuality, it's the same gather this, kill that, do this, do that, one time stuff.

But these are what makes it a bit fun and different:

1) You don't go to the questgiver and get the quest. You go to within the vicinity of where should the quest be carried out, and you'll get something on your quest log (top right of your UI) saying there's a quest.

2) You can IGNORE the heart, just like you can ignore a DE. It does pay to do it though, since it counts towards the map completion rate.

3) Even when I say it's the same gather this, kill that, do this, do that, you can choose whether you want to gather this, or kill that, or do this, or do that. Complete freedom on what you want to do, how you want to do.

4) Once you finished a heart, it turns into a Karma vendor, where you can buy stuff using Karmas. Some extra monetary rewards are in the mail. Oh, and yes, you don't need to go meet the lad in order to complete the quest, it auto-completes and the mail comes automatically.

Oh by the way, anyone know what is the use of "ArenaNet point" gain though achievements? Never heard it mentioned anywhere...

Even though those quest are similar to the normal static quests, it sort of feels more natural doing it. You don't go around looking for people with exclamation mark on top of their head to give you quests, but instead you just explore the area and you automatically gets the quest.

For some quests you can actually see a person running towards you and telling you to help them with this or that as well.

Increases your e-pen0r? XD. j/k, don't know what's the use really

Though, it actually pays to do the daily/monthly achievements quest though. Can get some nice stuff from it.

well my original intention was to farm skill points in WvWvW everyday but if those skill points challenges does not reset then perhaps we can try when our characters are somewhat geared and has some utility skills etc?
maybe at least level 15 to have some trait bonuses with most weapon skills unlocked.

example:
water plants
kill worms
feed cow

can
water plants only
kill worms only
feed cows only

or
water plants and kill worms only
kill worms and feed cows only
feed cows and water plants only
water plants and feed cows only

or do all
water plants, kill forms, feed cow

Hmm there is actually a WvWvW players killed achievement
