    Don't exit instance you just open map and go to the wp for next step instead saves you lots of time. If you can't see the wp you need to go too look at bottom right corner on your map and there is a layer option to use, click until you find the lost wp and if you are done inside of the instance just wp out.

    If you have access to the starting Golem Banker (2 weeks) for each new character, then you can: open bank, use tomes to level up, and then instantly teleport to the waypoint and it will leave/skip the tutorial instance

      Actually you can buy blood bound (account bounded growing with your level) with provisionner tokens. 10 for a weapon. 1 obsidian shard a day @ the black citadel. If you have thousands of those thanks to silverwaste you know what to do.

    So confused on why some people think it's not worth the time, it can be done easily in 10mins. Perhaps they are salty that they missed out on a free weekly key all this time, and want to undermine this farm.
    Anyway, there are some shortcuts to doing this faster, travelling to the inn in the home instance, you can cut through the fence from the right, instead of walking where the green arrow tells you.
    In some instances, namely the bandit cave medical supplies one, you can waypoint out instantly instead of pressing "leave instance" then waypoint after.
    When you are back at the home instance to give medical supplies to Andrew in the inn, you can talk to him through the wall instead of going into the room.
    If you have personal golem bank for new characters, you can do the same thing the video did in the tutorial, cutting through the farm to the final boss and wait at the water. You can buy a level 10 axe and keep it in your bank for weekly farm, and take out your tomes and axe while waiting for the boss to die/spawn.
    Obviously with mounts, it's all even faster.

    • @rhettorical
      @rhettorical 2 роки тому +4

      I think it's because they compare it to what you can be doing instead. People who are super into min/maxing every second of play to make the most money possible are the ones who hate this the most.
      But for the rest of us, given that this only takes 10-15 minutes, it's a good way to utilize downtime. And if you happen to get really lucky with your Key, you might end up making a fortune. Otherwise, it depends on which chest you're opening, as sometimes the guaranteed drop is vendor trash worth a gold or two.
      Something I think a lot of people overlook as well is that the Black Lion Statuettes are worth a lot in bulk, as sometimes they can be redeemed for Infinite Tools.

      By quick calculation, one BLTC key costs with current exchange rate around 36 gold. That is about 1 hour + 10-20 minutes of farming the most profitable farmtrains like DW or DS and 2 hours of Silverwastes (keep in mind that that's the benchmark g/hour with optimal farming routes, build and knowledge without afking).

    All is cool but when you run along the river before you meet the giant hands, you will be blocked from moving forward, IF the doors to shaemoor is not open yet. This loophole has already been patched long ago. Once the door is open you can reach the hands. It is unlikely the devs unpatch this. So you still need a bit of luck if you want to waltz directly to boss.

    • @ElaraMorwen
      @ElaraMorwen 2 роки тому +2

      ​@@zearcjustice7837 Let's do some simple maths:
      - You can buy 25 keys for 2100 gems. This makes 2100 / 25 = 84 gems per key
      - Gem ratio is $1.25 / 100 gems, making it 0,0125$ per gem
      - This way 1 key costs 0,0125 * 84 = 1,05$
      Assuming this scheme in the video you get 1 key per 30 mins, you are selling your time at a rate of 2,1$ an hour. Considering you've got PC able to run GW2, money to buy the game itself and time to play it, your per hour income must be much higher than that.
      In comparison, dish washer in US gets around 10$ an hour. So, being absolutely useless society unit with no skills, you can do these keys AT LEAST 5 times faster by going to the actual job, than farming it (which is practically is the worst kind of a job, it's a routine of doing the same thing over and over again. It's like being a conveyor worker). And what if you are actually skilled in something and get paid better?

      @@ElaraMorwen have to agree to this. While not spending money and farming in a very efficient manner certainly will appeal to a group of players, I do think in general, Alexander's argument here appeals to most players better. As someone else has mentioned, time is very precious, and we only live for so long. If you do want to enjoy the game and care about the keys that much, just pay some real $$ to buy the keys, then move on, it's also a way to give back to the devs for creating this game. There's no right or wrong answer here, only different take on the same subject.
      It's much more efficient to work IRL and pay with $$, then to farm gold/farm keys repetitively with little entertainment value. Of course if you are one of those people who find these kind of repetitive grind to be enjoyable, then more power to you.
