Hi,
I wanted to propose a new daily/monthlies that involve WvW. We have PVP ones that give PVP specific items, WvW is currently usually part of the monthly but the reward has nothing to do with WvW.
As some people have pointed out before, for someone who doesn’t particularly enjoy WvW, getting the badges for a legendary is pretty annoying. Now I personally do enjoy WvW but the rate at which I get badges (being a guardian) is HORRIBLE. I could roll a wizard and AoE people but really that’s the same as doing something I don’t enjoy for the sake of progress. Which is what Anet said they did not want us to do.
Now I know the other option is the JP, I dislike JP’s but the Borderland one is quite simple. I avoid the EB one because there’s usually a high chance I’ll get killed before reaching to top.
If we go by borderlands JP x3 every day on a character that’s roughly 9 to 12 badges. Let’s say 10 badges a day. That’s 50 days where you have to complete all 3 BL JP’s to get 500 badges needed. And the chance that you can complete all 3 everyday isn’t that high unless you’re on a server where it just dominates WvW with no competetion.
So, why not add a new monthly/daily for WvW? It would actually ADD to the WvW enviremont rather than what we have now is a bunch of people joining the zerg for monthly kills + a bunch of people trying to do JP with no intention of participating in actual WvW combat.
The daily could include WvW kills, keeps taken, Dolyaks killed, siege weapons built etc. The monthly would include the same with higher numbers of course.
The rewards could be like the regular daily/monthly some karma a random blueprint and 15 badges for daily and like 30-40 for monthly. This sounds like “a lot” but you need a “lot” of the badges to complete your goal. It would add to WvW in a sense where people have to participate in several stages of WvW rather than JP/Killing people and it would give us more options to get these badges rather than Jumping puzzles which you have to repeat over and over and over just to get enough badges.
Any input is appreciated, don’t nitpick about the numbers of badges as rewards and such, just examples. Discuss the main idea please.
Thank you for reading
P.S
Before I get called out for just wanting this for the badges, I’m nearly done with mine. I actually am not a self centered person that wants others to “suffer” like I did and I hope this gets implemented for that one kid that decided to go for legendary and hates JP’s and WvW and feels forced to do something he doesn’t want for a long period of time.
