I’ve spent enough time in WvW to figure out that zerging is mostly incredibly boring. I would much rather be part of a small raid group that can infiltrate enemy territory, take supply camps, and overall wreck havoc. Unfortunately having just transferred servers I haven’t found a guild yet and getting a small group together isn’t easy.
I propose adding a new icon ,similar to the commander icon, but one that is only functional for setting up small groups. The icon would be static on the map and it would allow people to right click the name and select join group. The grouping would still be your standard gw2 group; five man max, shows where everyone is, etc. This would allow for a much more dynamic battlefield and allow players to play how they want. Note the distinct difference between a commander icon anyone can see on the map and join up with and the raider icon that only shows who is leading raid groups. The icon could be sold for twenty gold (maybe more?), an expensive amount for an experienced player, but reasonable enough for anyone to achieve. It would also be nice for those low population servers if the raid leaders could roll to become a commander for thirty minuets if no other commander were present.
