How much time does ArenaNet expect us to spend on Festival Activities in a week? This year’s main incentive are probably the additional Sun-Grown Weapon (Skins).
I finished (Annual) For Winds Customs for the first skin at around 100/200 of the weekly progress after about 4 days of doing little more than completing the festival dailies. From there on it gets pretty tedious to get more skins, but you can only get 1 annual + 3 (or 4, ouch!) weekly chests anyway this year. Then why make it so time-consuming (and boring) to get them?
I’m going to get a few (probably 3, e. g. Longbow, Greatsword and Hammer) for my Ranger to complement the look of his Back item.
So, how many skins are you planning to get this year?
A bit more points per activity, a bit less waiting and maybe a bit more variety would be nice. It’s kinda odd that the fact that this year’s weapon skins look nice (at least I like them) increases the risk of me getting Festival Fatigue.
I still remember how exciting I found festivals in the early days, but this is sadly long over. Now I find myself hoping for boring skins so that I feel I’m done after completing Annual Customs. I know this sounds weird, but that’s actually how I feel.
