    The nice thing about focusing on story and exploration first is that the XP that you earn goes towards those shiny new masteries too and cuts down on any grind to finish them out.

    Not sure what happened to my original comment (maybe it was the link to the Anet post I included), but just wanted to mention that the open world legendary armor set is NOT coming on release day. You'll still be able to farm some of the materials used to craft it, but the set itself will arrive sometime in a later update.

    Lack of focus is a sure sign of caffeine abuse
    FIRST thing im going to do, is STARTING End of Dragons, but first i need to finish HoT, PoF and all the LWs i havent yet got around to, ive dipped in and out of all of them but not finished them yet, and not started EoD
    Also havent done a Strike, Fractal Raid or PvP yet, but i havent done almost a whole hour of WvW and want to do much more
    But hey, ive only played 1950 hours or so, so far, so early days
    EDIT - That Skyscal Skin, isnt even fully joined together, its like bits of its wings are falling off as it flaps its wings, thats a big YUCK for me,I like my mounts to have their arms, legs and wings all fully attached

    Hey there "Caf'Dad" just in case you didn't know, when you were trying to take that camp in WvW you were getting wrecked by the main camp NPC having RI for it having recently gotten flipped. From the wiki-
    " *Righteous Indignation* is an effect that *grants invulnerability against damage of all sources and provides a significant damage boost* . This effect is found in World versus World on any NPC guarding any objective (except for sentries) for 5 minutes after it was captured."
    So yeah, the npc will have blue fire on them, an RI buff, be invulnerable and hit like a truck.

    If you’re seeing this for the first time, even though it’s 3 weeks old, I would encourage people to complete their skyscale masteries first, as it makes getting around the maps a LOT easier and makes the rest of the masteries easier to complete. I didn’t complete them until last and then found myself panicking and scrambling for the more difficult last few mastery points I needed 😂😂

    If you’ve unlocked Arborstone and its Mastery track, don’t forget to park your toon there before the expac launch.
    The exp buff should help speed progression for the new Mastery tracks.

    I was wanting to hold off on crafting the underwater legendary rune until they improve underwater combat. But since they said you would get progress to crafting the legendary relic for each legendary rune crafted and I had the resources I decided to craft it to get the maximum possibly headstart.

    • @CaffeinatedDad

    For me I am going in calm and smooth, I am going to do it the way I do all expansions. Each segment of the story first and foremost. But the way I do it is, when the story puts me in a new zone I will also map complete the zone before moving on with the story. Once I map complete the expansion and story, I will start doing the metas more, while also knocking out achievements I need.

      @@Nasser_SMJ that would depend how they designed the maps... For example in EoD everyone with a flying mount could move around, but, that was not necessary at all. EoD assumes you have at least the most basic mounts (raptor, bunny, Skimmer), and I "assume" that for the vertical currents seen in the SOTO trailers, you need at least the Glider.
