Guild Wars 2

Hey there. Being a fan of the first GW1, I really do miss the weekend bonuses that changed from week to week. I would love to see something similar in GW2. Players defined their personal goals for what endgame meant to them, so self-motivation is a large part of GW series gameplay. Weekends helped give some guidance to different areas of the game or something to look forward to while they worked on their characters.

There can definitely be a good implementation of similar weekends, and hopefully some new ones: increased lockpick droprate (black lion key), increased rare drop rate (passive + Magic Find), increased Balthazar faction (increased glory), increased faction (increased karma), and increased gold/exp rate. Probably throw in some increased Badge of Honor drop rate weekend for good measure.

Any thoughts?

Yeaaaahh! They really should add that. I cant belive they haven’t done this until now. Not only GW1 does it, but most of other MMOs do it. Not only weekend, but also weekly bonuses. Great, Aswome Reminder to Anet. Thanks man!
