Guild Wars 2

First of all commanders should be something achieved through gameplay instead of buying a book.
.
.
I have spent 7 years playing Guild Wars 1 PvP, i am more fit and more knowledgable than 99% of the commanders in this game.
.
I will never be able to afford in the next 12 months a commander book one, i mostly play PvP, and unlike Guild Wars 1, being a PvP player in this game is not economically rewarding, in Guild Wars 1 i was and still am very rich, PvP paid off.
.
.
Even though Guild Wars 2 is a different game, every Guild Wars champion knows more, has seen more, understands more, no PvP will have such a high skill ceiling like GvG did.
.
.
It’s literally possible to buy Guild Wars 2, buy 100 gold and be a PvP commander, even though you have never ever played a PvP match or finished a single zone in PvE.
.
.
There are plenty of titles in recognition for playing Guild Wars 1 PvE (God Walking Among Mere Mortals, Legendary Defender of Ascalon, etc).
.
.
There is not a single reward for having played PvP, and i did for 7 years, i’m a very very high HERO and CHAMPION of Guild Wars 1, i could care less about the PvE titles, even though i am a GWAMM.
.
A good reward for Guild Wars PvP veterans, specifically Guild Wars Champions would be the ability to automatically be a commander, without having to buy or play anything else.
.
.
Any Guild Wars champion will be more fit to lead and make a solid choice over the ignorance of a player that got a precursors through RNG and got rich.
.
.
Now he “leads” us in battle in mindless zergs, he can only see whats in front of him.

Not a bad idea in theory

BUT

Those titles don’t mean anything either

High hero ranks could be obtained incredibly easily just by gathering up a group of semi competent players and digging up a good meta build. Champ rank was arguably a little harder for a while, but as the game progressed, boiled down to the same thing. Find group of relatively smart people > find good meta build > roll faces. Or, pay large amount of money > join group of experienced players in some minor, barley used role > easy champ points. Same could be said in that regard for fame as well.

That is irrelevant, since it represents a minority.
.
.
The fact is that GW PvP players will know what to do, or at least will do a better job.
.
.
Weather they grant free commander to GW PvP players that have achieved a certain tier in the Hero and/or Champion title, they still need to change the path to be a commander.
.
.
They need to make the commander title something achievable, and not purchasable.
.
.
What was all that talk about eSports about? When one of two PvP types can be led by an ignorant fool that never stepped in a battle ground and has 0 ability to lead, and let’s face it, in WvW everyone will follow the commander.

I feel like buying 100g and troll the whole server.
