Best use of Prizes and tokens from festival - Guild Wars Forums

Zatria · Jul 05, 2011, 09:06 PM // 21:06

What are your thoughts on the best uses for the festival prizes and victory tokens? I currently have 102 prizes and 210 tokens. I really haven't started the drunken or sweets title..so I guess that could be an option. Has anyone figured out the best way to spend these for certain goals they have?

I usually go with the Firewater being 300g each in the market and 3 points in the title for the 10 token reward NPC.

If you open the gifts then sell the rice wine to the merchant for 200g each. You can buy one minute alcohol for less than that.

Not a bad idea. I'm will do some number crunching to check out which way gets me further in, the sweets or alcohol.

Thanks.

Open the presents yourself. Everything in them will be useful to you whether you decide to go for drunkard or sweet tooth.

Always merch the wine, since you can use the cash to buy either cheaper drunk points or to get additional sweet points, whichever you decide to go for.

If you pick drunk, then merch the bean cakes or sell to another player (often for slightly more than the merch price) for more cash to buy alcohol. If you pick sweet, use the bean cakes yourself because you are highly unlikely to buy sweet points any cheaper than 100g each.

The best value for your tokens is going to be creme brulee (a three-point sweet) either way. If you're going for sweet, then you can use those directly. If you're going for drunk, you can sell the brulee to another player for at least 100g per point and use the cash to buy alcohol at less than 100g per point. You will end up with more alcohol points than if you had used the tokens for firewater.
