Problem: When running with my guild in WvW or PvE with more than 5 people, it becomes very frustrating sometimes to stay together in a group (since not all of us are on voice-chat). We have entertained the thought of getting a commander book for different leaders in our guild, but then that presents a problem in WvW. Our server has very competent commanders and we don’t want to make one of ours become the zerg magnet.

Solution: Create a new guild upgrade that allows us to assign certain members (not necessarily the guild leader) as Guild Commanders. It could be an icon similar to the current Commander icon, but perhaps a different color or shape. This icon would only be visible to the members in our guild.

Great idea ! But also if this does not get implemented,it might be wise to shout in chat that you have your icon on only for your guildmembers and that others should follow the #1 commander otherwise.

Good suggestion, I believe it’s been suggested before as well since BW1. As there is simply NO OTHER WAY in the game for 5 people to group up or see each other on the map…. people are using the commander pin for coordinating their multiple guilds groups.

They sure don’t make it easy to run with your guild in GW2. I’ve tried running 3-4 guild groups with everyone in vent/TS3 without the commander pin and WITH the commander Pin. It’s much easier with the commander pin up… but that just causes more confusion with other commanders and players.

The simplest solution is have a guild commander upgrade that only your guild can see and won’t effect other players. It’s very frustrating to have an option that would REALLY help your guild be organized, but you don’t use it as it causes confusion or problems with other people. It’s been suggested about 20 times… make commanders public/private or guild only.

Any system that can allow multiple guild groups to create a commander/squad that is not visible to the general players and does not cause confusion is what we need.

Alas… no word that is even on the radar to be upgraded. Be nice to see a dev comment on this. Either they are happy the way it is or have plans to upgrade.
