You're aware that there's literally a "View Results" button on polls?

For fun and for karma.

I do a couple of them because the rewards can be ok (Tequatl, Effigy, Octovine, Death Branded), but also because it's somewhat social and entirely stress free. It's also a chance to yell stupid things in map chat and potentially create a few lols.

Sometimes I only have 30 minutes before I have to go to work or before I have to go to bed. I just want to be on my character and do something that feels purposeful for the time I have. I also feel more of a sense of the community with some of these, and its comforting.

Tequatl is my favorite because that's a guaranteed 2 gold in a very small space of time and (in my opinion) minimal effort.

To expand on my previous post. I do/did meta events a few times if I get mastery points relatively easy from it (like Auric Basin meta) or if I just happen to be in the area. But I'm generally not too fond of them as the visual clutter from bosses, and guts-based more from players has not changed a bit. Not seeing my attacks or if I actually hit the boss and stuff to dodge (or fail to dodge) is not really the epitome of "fun" for me, unless I use mostly range weapons.

This is pretty much why I stopped doing world bosses on any regular schedule. It's a glaring spam fest of bling that never seems to really do anything to the boss as the mass of players melt him/her down.

I do them for fun and to help others. It's cool to see lots of players coming together for one goal. I also do events just for fun, the rewards from these are kind of a bonus to me. The Shatterer is very fun and one of my favourite, even though it doesn't get completed a lot of the time.

For dailies, mostly. Or when I'm in the area for some reason and somebody mentions it's WB time in map chat.

[pninak.1069]

for dailies only. you forgot the option for gold gain only. tequatl is a save way to get 1g per day. so rest of the boss is extra. mostly do the other world bosses only if I am working on a legendary collection, which happened once or twice to me only. don't want to gamble to get a precursor. think metas are more important than some world bosses.

[Turkeyspit.3965]

Because I'm there. If I happen to be on a map when a world boss spawns, I'll join in, just as I would a champion, bounty, whatever. But do I schedule my play so I can hit Teq or Behemoth? Not unless there is a collection I need to fill.
