Since none of us know what the expansion will be, it’s probably not going to be majorly focused around Durmand Priory, Order of Whispers, The Vigil, so my thought while I’ve been back playing Guild Wars 1, was how these 3 factions could be made more interesting.

How about introducing new mission campaigns to further investigate your personal story choice with respect to faction – like in GW1 – that you can do for normal or hard mode and accumulate points rewards in the 3 factions in a similar sense with story books, etc.
At certain stages with your faction, you could get hold of new titles, boosts, armor types, weapon types, hopefully new skins, but if not at least a way to introduce the ascended armor/weapon types.

There’s maybe 5-6 faction-specific personal story quests so far in GW2 and nothing to make me feel really associated with my faction until it just merges into The Pact storyline, so it would be nice to get a parallel story/campaign – you can either solo or bring a party – esp if they make some challenging hard mode that could scale with party size.

Just a thought anyway…

I think it would be a good idea to expand in this way and also to offer an updated version of wvw battles. Have a new zone where the three factions are in battle over territory in accordance to new lore. Then have players on the server be able to fight for their faction over territory in pvp.

I don’t see anywhere the OP mentioned any sort of pvp…this is why I say biased opinions contribute nothing.

Regarding OP I agree that the orders are criminally underutilized in the current gw2-hopefully they’ll bring content that highlights and uses the orders in the future. I actually made a similar suggestion (in terms of challenges/missions or something that utilizes the orders) a while back… but idk how many ppl actually like the idea though-I don’t check feedback for any post in the internet; not worth the headache.
