Guild Wars 2

Hello, I just got to thinking that a guild influence meter would be nice to have, when you click the roster, it tells you their level, Profession, crafting level, and achievement points.

I believe it would also be nice to know how much a player gained in influence, for that week, or even month. This would let the guild leaders know who is in-active / not representing.

Do you guys agree?

I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say that they left that out because it would drive some guild leaders mad and ruin others.

There are some numbers best left a little vague, for the sake of everyone’s smoother enjoyment of the game.

Good example: Recount in WoW.
That thing ruined dungeons and raids for so many people, because it gave elitist players the ability to scrutinize damage/heal outputs and impose their own standard of “optimal”, berating anyone who didn’t meet their lofty standard.

I agree to some point, but i would like to know which of my guild members are not repping at all.

Instead of a “last logged in” feature…how about a “last represented” feature. I don’t really care about the last time you logged in to the game. I care about the last time you represented. Members can log in and play for hours and not represent your guild.

At this point, I don’t really care to see how much influence a member has earned my guild. I think in the long run seeing this will prove more problem. I have a bunch of members who are on every day, almost all day, then I have members who log in once or twice a week. Obviously, the members who log on every day are going to be earning the guild more influence then the person who logs on once every few days. While this doesn’t bother me, I can see a lot of guild leaders trying to set influence quotas which I think is a terrible idea. Like dream said, some numbers are best left a little vague.
