Being limited to one region is really annoying for the people who have friends overseas. I understand the limitations with the cross-region transfers and why it might not be feasible to allow guesting in the same scale cross-region as it is allowed within a region, that’s why I think something like a cross-region guest pass service might be an opportunity. It’d be an account-based unlock, similar to deluxe edition upgrade, and it would create a copy of your account to the other regions servers for even a somewhat steep gem fee. (with all the obvious wvw limitations and whatnot) Having a fee involved in it would likely limit the use of this feature to those who really want to play with their friends on the other side of the pond, rather than just people doing open world events like the current guesting is mostly used within the regions
Maybe this would be a more feasible way than just free for all guesting and it would definitely be a useful service for those of us who have friends on both regions and can’t really make the decision between the two sides
