Yes, it’s needed… badly. I’ve even seen commanders who’ve spent $500+ on this game get bored, having nothing left to accomplish, and leave the game. I made this suggestion in someone else’s post awhile back, but felt it needed it’s own thread, allot of people ended up liking the idea, so here it is.

Get points based off of: Kills, Supply used (both building and repairs), Siege placed, Healing done. Balance the amount gained between all things.

If you have 50 people kill 1 guy, the amount gained is diminished. If you kill 50 people with 1 guy (unlikely, lol) you get a larger amount of points.

If you die alot, you’re worth a less amounts of points (this is to keep people from farming points off newer players and friends).

Doing the average point worthy task, is worth about 5-35 points.
These points, can either be traded in for w3 badges, for exotic gear, prolly 8-10k points would be enough for an average 1 piece of gear.
Or, you can save these points, and after about 50k or so, get a small ability buff. Not a new ability, Not added permanent stat points. But a very small ability buff.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
For example:

Shadow Refuge (for those who don’t know, this utility skill heals and stealth in an AoE effect).
Spend 50k points: and now Shadow Refuge heals for 50 more health.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Example 2:

Spend 75k points: your character now has 50% less repair costs in WvW.
————————————————————————————————————————————————
Example 3:

Spend 100k points: (costs more to add to an elite skill) Lich Form has a 180sec cooldown; reduce cooldown by 3 secs, now 177 secs.
————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Something small, but nice to have. Not easy to get, and not game breaking, but people still want it. It’ll keep us here, trying to progress, but it won’t be anything game changing enough to actually affect an outcome.

To add to this idea… Adding names to people in WvW would be beneficial as well. reason being, allot of people like to get recognized for what they do… create rivalries… etc.

Also… The sPvP kill spam? That should be added to WvW as well imo.

These kinda things give people reason to try and build a reputation, of whatever kind they want.

Some people love to be hated, some love to be loved, but as of right now… There’s just nothingness.

Good post, a lot of these popping up.

Hope arenanet takes notice.

Yes, WvW needs some serious improvements. a RPesque implementation is exactly what this game needs.
