I think they moved all JPs to the weekly category, and left mini dungeons in the dailies. Also seems like the pool of minidungeons is only Spirit Vestibule, Vexas Lab or The long way around.
JJH
If its for the "do X events" weekly: the EoD map Dragons End, has a minidungeon called "Trial of the Elders". You need a Jade Bot Mastery to enter and it containes a total of 8 very fast events (they count as events but give no loot/xp), they can be done in a group or solo (recommend power reaper for solo play).
True. Before 1 alt was able to get ~225 Gold in mats in 3 months just by logging in, now its 75 Gold in the same time. However this same account is now able to generate 150-200+ Gold (partially in mats), in addition to the 75 Gold, within just 2-4 hours of gameplay in 3 months, with no setup beyond a high enough level character in cheap gear. This makes alt farming one of the best possible farms in the game. Especially if you are able to use ToS complient multiboxing (which can currently be used to do pretty much all pvp dailies on multiple accounts in 10 minutes by having them in your own private Custom Arena).
For Open World and WvW Cele gear is really good. For organized group content it depends on the role you try to fill:
- Healing is possible in all gamemodes but a bit scuffed for Quickness application. In addition to that you will likely be the Tank (highest toughness), which can be overwhelming.
- DPS no problem in fractals and easy strikes but you will do considerable less dps than others, dont do it for Raids.
- Boon-DPS dont do it.
The game is designed in such a way, that you can NOT make big mistakes before lvl 80, yet always make progress on something. So take your time, go an adventure, figure things out on your own. This extends to character creation, play whatever class, you want, all of them are good and have multiple, endgame viable, builds.
If unsure about anything, use the phenomenal wiki, ask IG or on the forums. ("/wiki" +[shiftclick an item] in IG chat opens the wiki site for the item)
The PvP lobby (crossed swords top left) has basic vendors, TP access and a bank. Use it to save afk, buy/store/sell things.
Do NOT use the lvl 80 boost on your first character.
As long as you and your friends are on the same Mega Server (EU or NA) you can play together, you have all race starter Waypoints unlocked.
Inventory management is one of the most important things in the game. Here is a rough prio list for loot:
- Use the "Deposit All Materials" button top right in the inventory. You can access them from all Banks or Crafting stations.
- Type "Consumable" into the search bar of the inventory, to find things you can consume (open all bags, consume all luck, karma etc)
- Right clicking any item brings more options.
- Identify or sell unidentified Gear on the TP. ->If you identify: salvage all white, blue and greens. For yellow and orange check TP value, if value is over 25 silver (2x Ectoplasm) sell, else salvage.
- Selling to a npc vendor: use the "Sell Junk" button
- Last possible option is to destroy things
Wanted to play GW2 on my Linux Laptop (Steam Proton is easier than setting up the original Launcher), also thought about buying a Steamdeck in the future. No, you cant lauch the 2 different Versions at the same time and based on a quick Google Search, most Multilaunch Tools (GW2Buddy, GW Multi-Launch, GW Launcher) dont seem to support Steam Login.
