How much time does ArenaNet expect us to spend on Festival Activities in a week? This year’s main incentive are probably the additional Sun-Grown Weapon (Skins).

I finished (Annual) For Winds Customs for the first skin at around 100/200 of the weekly progress after about 4 days of doing little more than completing the festival dailies. From there on it gets pretty tedious to get more skins, but you can only get 1 annual + 3 (or 4, ouch!) weekly chests anyway this year. Then why make it so time-consuming (and boring) to get them?

I’m going to get a few (probably 3, e. g. Longbow, Greatsword and Hammer) for my Ranger to complement the look of his Back item.

So, how many skins are you planning to get this year?

    With Dragonbash, at the end of the week full of three dailes per day I still had 100 points left to grind. With Four Winds, I’m at ~50 points at day 2 and all I do are a few dailies and the Time Trials. It’s not even a competition. Maybe the annual achievements give extra points?

    Edit: Just finished an Annual, got a few additional points. So it might be that.

      This is weird (the additional points from Annuals, I mean).

      I finished (Annual) For Winds Customs for the first skin at around 100/200 of the weekly progress after about 4 days of doing little more than completing the festival dailies.

      … which meant I needed to get 100 more points in the remaining 2 days of the first (shorter) week. And this was a surprise to me, since I was actually expecting to be on track for the weekly when doing a bit more than the dailies every day.
