January 2013 update to token DR[edit]

Also posted this in the token talk page, i guess this article is going to need an update too. This is the forum thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/DR-Diminished-Returns Hope any of you can confirm it and maybe we can start fixing some of the related articles on the wiki.

Dungeon tokens and DR[edit]

Hi,

Just a note about to clarify the previous edit that we made: DR in dungeons is account-based and NOT character-based. We've seen confusion about this as players refer to being able to get around 60 dungeon tokens with several characters, but this does not contradict what we said. Dungeon token rewards are calculated as a combination of both the daily bonus and DR, so depending on how many times you play a dungeon path on one and several characters, you may see different results.

Thanks. The preceding unsigned comment was added by Stephane Lo Presti (talk • contribs).

I updated the Dungeon DR section with my results from reddit/r/guildwars2/psa_rams_reward_dungeon_xp and also clarified it bit. I removed the third bullet point since it I've never seen anything like that before, nor seen any supporting links, and it was also unclear if if running different paths within the same dungeon or different would trigger this.

Farming Passiflora[edit]

-I have begun to notice some DR when I have been farming passiflora nodes in Southsun Cove. I farm the same nodes once, twice, or sometimes three times per day to try and get passion flowers. Sometimes when I have been doing it a lot, nodes, after I harvest a few nodes, the rest that i can see on the minimap (the little icons) disappear, and when I go over the node has disappeared as well. Has anyone else experienced this? 65.96.252.199 02:47, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

DR vs. Champ Chests & Rewards[edit]

Anyone know if DR affects loot from champ chests and rewards, specifically ascended crafting materials such as dragonite ore and the like? --Messenger (talk) 05:56, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Non-Dungeon instances[edit]

Anyone knows how DR behaves on non-dungeon instances? Stuff like story events, holiday events, etc. Are they account bound or character bound?

Generally it's account bound. Ascent to Madness is. Choco-muffin (talk) 17:46, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Feedback 2015/09/25[edit]

Insert feedback text here --70.196.65.19 10:47, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

The part on basic mechanics where is says "The only way to "remove" DR is to move the character to a new area for a period of time, believed to be about 15-20 minutes." Just going elsewhere apparently isn't enough. I think you need to actually do things (events?) elsewhere. I've seen posts where people went to The Mists and parked their chars there thinking it would remove DR and posted asking why it didn't.70.196.65.19 10:47, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Collection Items[edit]

is it known whether collection items (eg for legendary collections) can still drop while a character is under the influence of DR? -Adelas (talk) 01:49, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

Fishing[edit]

is it known whether DR applies to fishing? I seem to get more junk items the longer i stay in a map, which is frustrating when i'm trying to keep up my boat bonus - 47.186.14.100 06:23, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

I'm having that problem now. I am getting no rate or higher fish, having worked myself up to 99 fishing stacks. --Hesione (talk) 03:28, 2 October 2023 (UTC)
