Guild Wars 2

Right now we get absolutely nothing tangible for doing it. Of course I realize it has to be done sometimes, but why not allow us to get world exp for doing it, even if it were just a small amount.

It sucks that we don’t get exp or anything out of doing it anymore, though I understand why. A lot of people were avoiding all the real WvW and just escorting Dolyaks for money/glory/exp. But if all we got for doing it were World exp, most people wouldn’t just come in to take advantage of it, but people who actually want to participate in WvW would be able to do something even when there’s no action on the map.

Like I would love to help build up the garrison, but I don’t have the money. The main way I can contribute to my WvW when things are quiet is to escort Dolyaks or… do nothing. =/

You do get a small amount of wxp for killing the random mobs that attack supply dolyaks.

I didn’t get any WXP for successfully defending my Dolyak against two thieves because they got away without me killing them. I then felt compelled to escort the Dolyak to the tower it was going to, which took several minutes. I received no reward for this.

It was very disappointing. I know that I saved that Dolyak from getting destroyed by those thieves, yet I got nothing for it.

I do find a lot of intrinsic value in just helping out my team, but since I’m just getting back into WvW, I wanted to start small and re-learn the ropes before I dived into the zerg. Due to this mechanic, I feel like I would be better off with the zerg, instead of doing these smaller tasks.
