I’m not sure I see why they should do this. Those who want to improve will either find this info themselves or learn from friends/guildies.

Those who are happy with their skill level (high or low), wont use the guides regardless as to where they are. I rarely use player made guides for example and still wouldn;t use them any more if they were linked officially

ArenaNet already does a great job at showcasing their content creators every week, including hosting said channels on their official Twitch. Further, it isn’t up to ANet to define what accounts as “good at the game,” as that is usually something that individual communities within the game decides. This means “good enough” could mean anywhere between “having fun” to “QuantifyEU level of DPS,” depending on who the player decides to play with. So instead on relying on somebody else to help players reach a level you deem “acceptable,” why not positively contribute to their learning yourself?

some of us do not give a kitten about DPS stuff and some of us play this game for fun !!

anet has a wikki already if some ones in need of information . they can find it their or ask . not that hard to do .

as another poster pointed out this fact . it isn’t up to ANet to define what accounts as “good at the game,” as that is usually something that individual players make the call on . and not what you think or deem “acceptable,” play .

not only that but maybe you should try it first from other players sides before saying they got bad game play of any kind . ;/

no new system upgrades coming

The only thing I wish Anet would teach their players is what a Break Bar is and how to break it. That wiki page is so helpful yet only people who know what it is would ever read it.

Careful … everyone plays this game for fun, both people who care about DPS and people who don’t, and everyone in between.

Besides, OP’s point is about making guides more accessible. Their theory seems to be that there’s lots of information out there and lots of players who say they want access to it… but who also say they have trouble finding it. Why not offer links in game?

Towards that end, the wiki really is the best place for that info, since everyone has access to it. People sometimes right guides that appear in their “user space” instead of a primary article… and those guides, if they are good, get linked from “Notes” or (at worst) the talk pages.

So, OP, if this is a cause you believe in, put your time where your keyboard is and

  • Create an account on the wiki.
  • Create a set of user pages that have links to the guides you think are excellent.
  • Build up your rep as a reliable poster by linking a few of these to the talk pages of relevant articles.
  • If you have extra time, you can even help write missing guides (or help edit existing ones) to be in the main space — there’s quite a large gap currently, since people seem to rely on Dulfy, [KING], [qt], and others and forget that not everyone visits those sites.
