Why would we add this basic function? You can easily join WvW and get your fill of slaying the enemy players. /duel would just lead to inner-server stupidness.

Wow has /duel… you could go there if you so desire :/

wow, no offense but this has to be the most idiotic post i have seen in my entire life regarding a game. I know this might seen like a personal attack but your post is bad, your reasoning behind it is bad and your solution is even more horrific.

I have friends playing this game on my same server, we all want to test combos, builds, weapons, our PvP capabilities. I cant ask some random person in WvW who i cant even communicate with (unless i invite him to party, which he might or might not accept) nor i can guarantee he wont have any support behind him. I cant just say “stand there while I bash you to death just to test my build” or " lets 1v1, dont kill me, whoever downs first loses".

I played WoW, im playing GW2, why would I have to go to another game to play my profession?! Its like saying " you want to eat pizza? well you can always go to a BBQ restaurant and get some meat" .

I would appreciate a serious answer with a serious solution, because right now sPvP is the only way i can get to PvP, but i cant test my gear correctly nor ALL my skills nor guarantee somebody else will join.

Cuz people are bad sports. Also, there’d be too much property damage.

To add dueling we’d need Guild halls implemented.

Fortus, you’re likely going to get a lot of flamming with a post like this. I tried to make a /duel post back in Beta and got a rather mixed response.

As for me, I’m all for it. To think that a simple /duel creates a whole system of elitism is a horrible assumption, but people look at it that way anyway. Others will say that since WoW has it, it’s a horrible feature and should never be added because GW2 is “different”. (Hrmm… WoW has health bars… then GW2 shouldn’t have health bars?)

But yeah I’d really like to see /duel. There must be some considerations though, like the option to automatically decline duel requests to avoid spammers/trolls. Even a certain area on the map that is designated as a “duel zone” so the PvE people can’t complain about it.

And to be perfectly honest, /duel makes sense in the GW2 setting and times. People on the same side would play fight (called training) against each other all the time to prepare for their real enemies in the field.

I don’t see anything wrong with this idea.

My turret is so much better at this game than I am.

wait what?

you realize Im just asking /duel for the sake of testing/ competing with people i know, you DONT HAVE TO accept every duel, we can have “duel flags” , that we turn on if we want to duel, and appears like the “searching for party” signal.

I dont know nor care about this so called “Guild Halls” you speak of. Bad sport are everywhere, your point is? You can always fight who you want to, not whoever wants to. Property damage, wut?

I love how people blindly come on to the forums with little to no research involved and then complain and expect Arena Net to take them seriously. Why should Arena Net take anything you suggest seriously when your not willing to take 5 minutes and research.

If you did the research you would have found out that Guild Halls are being introduced sometime ( this year ) hopefully in the next month or so.
Secondly they have already stated they are adding a dueling measure that will allow people to duel other players in a private room that you control.

Seriously people do 5 minutes of research before you post on the forums if you truly want to have your idea be taken seriously. This suggestion has been made probably over 30 times and in at least 7 of those threads it has been stated that Arena Net is doing a dueling system. Maybe if more people spent more time thinking instead of blindly posting we could get some real suggestion on the forums.

I did my research, and yes, i know about all that, im asking about PvE Dueling, random people, you know, there are skills which can ONLY be used on PvE and WVW, right?

Also the gear……… dunno if you knew, but sPvP has standarize gear and stats……..

The pvp gear is standardized but it is on par with the PvE exotic gear at 80. Also what good is a duel going to do you against a “Player” for PvE, since the mobs never react the same as a player. Also fighting a player is greatly different than fighting a mob.

There is nothing that Dueling can do for you, that will increase your skill for PvE, by dueling in a PvP aspect period. Nice try on trying to redeem your self but your reasons don’t add up. Trying reading other threads you would have knowing about these things before you Blindly posted this new thread.

actually i have to disagree with you kaimick. oh and by the way what he meant by “pve gear”. is simply the gear he uses in wvw. i know its confusing
but anyway . in truth the pvp gear on spvp is not nearly on par with the pve gear(the gear we use in wvw)
the amount of options and build costomization in spvp is well……sad in comparison.
in spvp you cannot get the highest stats or customization. this is even more black and white with the arrival of ascended items.

this game needs duels. that is a given. in gw1 there were guild halls that allowed such things. but i think that having a /duel option would be much more convenient.(i still want guild halls though)

but there should be limitations of were dueling should occur……i really dont want to come in to lions arch just to see war going on.

You still do not need a Dueling system in a PvE environment, As a dueling situation is PVP player vs player not Player vs Environment.

I am not sure how they are setting up the dueling Areas but they are already putting them in. Maybe you should make a thread called, “Future Dueling Areas you are putting in the game suggestion” then suggest that they allow you to use your WvWvW builds and gear. Although regardless there is no reason at all that there needs to be a
/duel
Feature put into the PvE aspect of the game, this is only going to cause a spam of Duel me Duel me Duel Me Duel Me noob Kitten, Duel me Duel Me Duel Me Noob Kitten. You don’t need to add an option to ignore duel request, when they are adding the dueling feature in the PvP environment already. That way only people that want to duel you can be bothered with it.

Again who knows Arena Net may be adding in a feature when you create your rooms that allow you to make it a WvWvW friendly room and use your PvE gear you use in WvWvW, nothing has been said as to the exact features, just that it was being put into the game.
