Guild Wars 2

Getting out:

Leaving the Pavillion is currently taking longer than any A-to-B action in GW2 that I can think of.

In addition to the run down the walkway, you then have to go through 2 loading screens instead of 1, as the first one will always take you back to Divinity’s Reach, after which you can waypoint to wherever it was you were planning to go.

Oh yeah, forgot to say, you may have to fight your way through a mob of enemies on that bridge, too.

All in all, this is taking too long.

• Please implement a “door” icon in the bottom right corner so I can leave the instance, or at least
• Place a waypoint next to the exit

Getting back into gauntlet fights

Suffers from similar problems – if you lose, you find yourself on the upper walkway (weren’t you supposed to drop through the floor into the group event area, actually?!). After raising at the only available waypoint, you have quite a run back to the gauntlet NPCs. In addition to the queue.

This, too, could be addressed by the placement of an additional waypoint.

Getting back into group events

Is working fine.

Completely agreed. If you lose in the Arena, especially considering this is a celebration and not something that I assume should result in ‘real’ death within the game, why don’t we simply get spit out at the Ringmaster fully alive when we fail?

Also Door Exit Icon for the love of quaggan, the inane walk out is ridiculous.

Couldn’t agree more. I wanted to avoid queues at the gauntlet arenas so I got into an empty overflow but I died trying to go through the veterans. My friend also died while just trying to get out cause there were no people to do the event. He resolved to go through the Heart of the Mists in the end. It’s just ridiculous. At least put the kitten exit portal in the middle >.>

Did you know you can click on the “upper level” on the bottom right of your minimap to waypoint where ever you want? The pavillion is NOT instancied and thus, you can freely move around the map. If it was instancied, you would see red around on the minimap.

The reason is that the Pavillion is underground, and you need to go up one level to see ground level!

There’s a way to leave. Just change like the surface, underground thing when you open up the map. Should let you waypoint out… All I know :o

This is apparently only if you take too much time in the arena.

I had no idea, thanks for the hint!

That definitely solves problem #1.

Sadly, it does nothing for problem #2!
