Getting emp is a serious grind. I’ve been doing PvP for years and never got it. Probably never will.
Not only is it a rather time-consuming grind, but there are also quite a few groups that hold Emp hostage unless you're willing to pay them to "let you Emp."

I saw a guy spamming zone chat about selling trifectas. I bit. He said it was 500M gold. After I picked my jaw up off the floor, and thought about it, I figured it was kind of fair. You're asking 11 other people to do the achievement, probably without your help, and it has to be worth each of their times. About 50M each? Eh. If it was mean, I mean, I guess I'd do it for half that, but I can't.
I saw all of this to say: Given that becoming Emperor seems much HARDER than a trial trifecta, I can't IMAGINE how much it must cost to get one of these guilds to let you Emp. I mean, at least if you fail a trial trifecta, you can just restart. Who knows how long it would take for your score and the map situation -- while everyone else is ALSO fighting for it -- to line up to have a shot to even have someone LET you have it?

2. Weekly trial quest - gives you 3 (I believe). I did nHOF for the lead yesterday and just did the quest tied to it and got 1. I believe this has been confirmed to be per character.
3. Maelstrom Arena - nMA gives you 1, vMA gives you 3. This has been confirmed to be per character.
4. Master Writs - you get 1 each day from doing any type of these. Not 1 PER TYPE, but 1 TOTAL. Not sure if it’s per character or account wide.
5. IA daily quest (1 arc and killing Tho’at) nets you 1. Just did this one 1 character yesterday, so not sure if it’s per character or account wide.
That’s all I had time to do yesterday. I believe getting on the leaderboard for arenas, trials, etc will give you some as well. Also remember with account wide achievements, every character works towards it!

We only need 50 scraps ever, right? If so my plan of handing in one writ and doing a random normal a day will get me there in under a month with minimum effort.

A bunch of us on console have been saving our coffers for a few weeks. Can we open multiple coffers in a row and get scraps, because the timer is on coffer DROPS, or do we have to hold off opening the coffers to once a week per character?Necrotech_Master wrote: »drops from trials are once per day per account, except for the weekly quests coffers, which can be once per character per week (so you can get multiple in a day)
