What is your username in GW1? The miniature section of the Hall of the Monuments is my biggest concern. I'm really enjoying the game and don't mind grinding weapons, but the miniatures seem to be locked behind birthdays. My wife and I both play the game together, so we're happy to take duplicates if you have them. My username is Ren Voidwalker. I've added you on GW1 if you still have any miniatures left. My username is Ren Voidwalker and I'll happily sign in whatever time suits you best. Thanks!

@GoZero.9708 . I'm glad you can see where players on foot are coming from. We don't expect you to demount or even turn around to help, but just being able to make it in time for the achievement and exotic armor piece would be nice. That's all we want. I was never against mounts in the core game before today also. I fully understood that those who have purchased the expansion pack should be able to use them, but this is unfair and a forceful sales tactic. @"TEKnowledgy.1760" It feels like a F.O. when players who have chosen to wait on the expansion pack are punished during a seasonal event. Do they plan to ruin Christmas next for everyone who hasn't purchased the expansion also? I can see from your replies you're never going to side with those that do not own the expansion pack, so I'm unsure of whether explaining about someone in a position other than your own would help, but here goes. My analogy of the situation is this: Mounts can help you get to vistas and complete jumping puzzles easier, but I can still get there a lot slower. You can complete events and dailies smoother, but I can still stumble along. This Labyrinth achievement and reward is not possible for those without mounts. No alternatives. This is, and will be seen as P2W for those without the expansion pack. As for your previous comment of "Adapt or move on". That's a great attitude to have for fellow and future players. Anyone who cares about this game wants players to join and enjoy their product, but apparently to you, if they don't buy something they should leave instead of voicing their opinion. It makes me wonder why player counts and sale figures are always lower every quarter.

I have managed to get to the doors in time, and the bosses by joining those massive squads who scale up all the mobs (so I have enough time to run there). I do agree with the core point that the Labyrinth is insanely alienating for those who do not own Path of Fire. I have 5/6 of the Exotic armor pieces, and I am missing the "Complete the race in the Labyrinth in under 2 minutes" achievement to earn my last piece of Exotic armor towards the set. Have you tried to complete the race on foot? You can barely make it to the finish line let alone that fast! This was an achievement and piece of armor designed for mounts in mind, no one else. Everyone on their mounts drag all the mobs forward, then lose aggro because of how fast they move. Everyone on foot? Takes all aggro and has to deal with somehow staying out of combat. Yeah, that's fair... I want to end on two points:1- I am NOT free to play. Do not give me "this is what free players should deal with" crap that I've seen posted throughout this thread. I own the base game, and have Heart of Thorns and was undecided on Path of Fire until I had read some reviews first.2- I am sure as hell not going to buy the expansion pack through force tactics. I remember only buying Heart of Thorns because I could no longer participate in PvP since my class was underpowered without the expansion pack, and everyone told me "Get it for the gliders". I refuse to buy a second expansion in a row for the gimmick of "Get it for the mounts". I don't think Firebrand looks better than Dragonhunter for my play-style, and from the reviews I have read, the new maps are great once, but not re-playable.
