Guild Wars 2

With the current ranking and setup, almost the same 3 servers will see each other on the same map (duplicate 3 times) plus EB every week and it is getting old really fast.

A lot of complaints about 2 vs 1, not much of rewards for T1 servers, boring duplicated maps, low population for lower tier, etc.

Few ideas that will work well with each other:

1. revamp the map to 1 giant new map.

2. consolidate/merge servers.

3. There will be WvW (head to head competition, not WvWvW.) The rule is simple like any live tournament. First week, all servers put into RNG and randomly draw (example: blue fights blue, red fights red, magenta fights magenta.) Second weeks, all won servers put into RNG for random pick and same goes with all lost servers. Third weeks, we should have 4 tiers at this time, RNG and continue. This will continue until the last two top servers settled for 1st and 2nd place of the season. After that, All server put back into RNG and starting weeks 1 again. With this system, every server will have a chance to face different server instead of seeing the same old server for at least 3, 4 weeks in the row or maybe forever.

The rewards for 1st and 2nd place can be buffs: 1st place = +30% chance of receive badge of honor, +50% more gold. 2nd place = +15% chance of receiving badge of honor, +30% more gold or something interesting enough to motivate every servers to try harder. These buff will last for a week and only apply while they are in WvW. With good rewards, every servers will push harder to get it. Therefore, it is promoting WvW to a different level.
(These only works well with 2 servers against each other for the fairness)

4. More gears/weapons skin in WvW vendors as rewards of trading badge of honor.

Happy Holidays!

1. Won’t work because of server load issues. We still have issues with large groups loading on time as it is.

2. Possibly, but probably not for a while.

3. I agree with the 2nd part about giving prize’s to 1st and 2nd place.

4. Definitely needs to happen.

Good stuff.
