Will the Achievement Points System have meaning in Heavensward?

[Silvanoshi]

Just as the title suggests: Will the Achievement Points System have meaning in Heavensward?

Currently, the points do not do anything and don't have purpose. Only the rewards off the actual individual achievements matter.

Will this be updated with the expansion?

Achievement points have always been just for show off. If you don't find meaning in that, then...congratulations?

Achievement data are private by default on the LodeStone. If you want to show off your achievements, you need to make them public for other people to see it.

Do achievement points have a meaning in any game?

No. People need to stop expecting to be pat on the back for every little thing they do. Achievements have always been arbitrary and pointless.
