Guild Wars 2

Having been playing in WvW since open day, one thing i have found is the lack of willingness to pay for upgrades in the towers, my suggestion is that when a group takes a fort etc instead of getting the reward of coins to each player, perhaps the coins could be made into a point system that gets credited to the upgrade merchant in that keep. The amount that is given would be dependent on the number of people who took it over or a set amount. Experience, karma, and influence should still be awarded to the players.

I disagree. That would encourage a large zerg mentality and make it harder for smaller population servers to purchase upgrades. Plus the money that you get from events also can be used to repair gear in the case you get stomped

If it was a set amount it wouldn’t, plus by the comment about being dependant on numbers, it takes more people to take a garrison than a tower and the upgrades in it cost more, money is easily availiable from capping supply camps and killing the Npc’s defending the keep from the event, im talking about when you cap it.

Just no.

Upgrades are exactly how they should be now, and if you don’t want to foot the bill, and nobody else does either, that’s your choice.

Only thing they should do should be to allow you to pay the partial amount, so the cost would be split out among the players, and when enough money been pooled the upgrade starts. this way more ppl can contribute to upgrading without actually going broke, specailly ppl that are not yet lvl 80 rarely ahve the money for anything but maybe supply camp upgrades, but this way they could pay a 2-3 silver and still help to starting it earlier without having to pay the full price
