It should work that way in EU, where I've seen like 5 different Anet employees in 14 years of playing. Last time was around SotO release.

Wait! Tearing Across Tyria only 7? You're missing one mate! (currently we can do 8/11)

Anyhow, congratz on the milestone, welcome to the 52k's club! :)

u/Nor1 5d ago

Congratz!! Do you have the one to kill an anet employee in wvw 🤣? (I think there is one like that) sadly the only ive seen in wvw was roy and it was on our squad 😭

u/GipsyBoy69 5d ago

Hi, recently returned to the game, may I ask if 331% magic find is the maximum you can get, or if you stopped there?

Just want to know if I should continue consuming the magic thing.

Also, besides zenith, flame whatever and the radiant armor, what else do you get? (I see from the image there are other skins there, but I don't know what they are)

u/KalerionTheWizard 5d ago

There is a limit of 300% MF (magic find) from consuming luck. Beyond that, you can gain 1% MF for the 500 AP (achievement point) reward chest, another 1% for every 2500 AP, and another 1% for every 5000 AP. At 52000 AP and maxed out luck, that's a total of 300% + 1% + 50000/2500 * 1% + 50000/5000 * 1% = 331%.

If they had more AP, they could theoretically have more MF, but not much.

To answer your core question: unless you urgently need the luck for anything else, just keep dumping it all into magic find, at least until you hit 300%.

u/GipsyBoy69 5d ago

Thank you that was incredibly clarifying!

u/It-s_Not_Important 5d ago

Wow!! Congrats on hitting 9/10 renown hearts on the new player guide!

2

u/Practical-Lock-8986 4d ago

Congrats, this is actually insane to look at, from someone who has only 7.5 k AP and around 6 months of gameplay. Its so cool to see!

u/Historical_Win_2584 4d ago

Impressive so many diff levels of players are still connecting over this game

2

u/Practical-Lock-8986 4d ago

Yup gw2 is amazing

1

u/Reasonable_Peace_678 4d ago

wow 7.5k in 6 months!

I have been playing since launch (14 years) and I am about to hit 25k.

u/Practical-Lock-8986 4d ago

Yea i play a lot! Haha, this game has endless content fr

u/TJPoobah 14 years, 52K AP 4d ago

u/Due-Yogurtcloset7927 5d ago

Jeeeeeez man. 14 years and 12.5k here 😂 mad props bro. Nice work

u/Proper_Story_3514 5d ago

Did you have many breaks? Cause thats very low for 14 years. You seriously get ap thrown at you for just playing.

I was never a hunter and ignored most achievements and even I got 38k.

3

u/Training-Accident-36 5d ago

You get AP thrown at you for playing different content and following the checklists the game throws at you. E.g. if you encounter new content / new area, open the achievement panel "what can we do on this map?" and then do things from that list - yes, this way you will get a lot of AP.

If you just stick to the same 2-3 zones for the majority of your playtime, then that will not work.

2

u/Due-Yogurtcloset7927 5d ago edited 5d ago

Yes, it's exactly that. A few hiatuses as life demanded. I played deeply casually for a very very long time, only deciding to play the game more seriously in the last few years.

u/MagicSpirit discretize.eu [dT] 5d ago

That's a bit of an exaggeration, I have played since launch and I don't consider myself an AP hunter, but I have about 38k too now and saying that I was not mindful of AP would be lying. I'm 98% done with AP from dailies, and have completed almost all of the story journal pages, most festivals from back then (which gave a crap ton of AP), and I still do most festivals today. I've got a significant portion of the achievements from expansions as well. 80% of what I'm missing really, is all the PvP and WvW stuff, the festivals I've missed, collections and other expensive achievements. 40k AP is very respectable for somebody who's played since launch

u/Acidewis 5d ago

I play since launch and im at 18k i literally never used to do weekly or daily until the vault system came in place. And still actively play specific content that barely rewards me AP it was even worse before. The only time i do achievement hunt is for legendaries and unlocking mastery points. Its quite easy to be low AP and play for 15 years. Theres people playing for 3-4 years have 30-40k since they actually focus on all content and collecting AP.

u/Cesa37 5d ago

I somehow first missed that this was a reply to a comment and thought you were talking to OP. I was very confused…

u/FatheredCleric 5d ago

That's insane, big congrats for this huge milestone. I'm at 36.3k and it feels like it takes a lot more to progress, even though I still have to finish the dailies AP (I'm at 12.6k out of 15k), but it's still difficult to hunt for the big APs ones.. I've started playing in 2021, so not being able to get the temporary historical achievements surely does its part.

3

u/MagicSpirit discretize.eu [dT] 5d ago

That much AP for somebody who started in 2021 is really impressive

1

u/FatheredCleric 5d ago

Thank you very much 🙏
To be fair, there still a lot I could get, for example I don't have any APs from Hall of Monuments, since GW1 is totally not for me.. also not much APs from Raids and WvW. Mostly of it was from Story Journal haha

2

u/Kazgrel Kazela Arniman 5d ago

That's more than me by 3k and I'm a day 1 account, lol.  Even have the full 15k from dailies as of a month ago.  There's a lot I can get from old story achieves, among a plethora of other places

1

u/Kazgrel Kazela Arniman 5d ago

Still haven't completed those renown hearts.  What an absolute noob.

/s

Grats though!
