Guild Wars 2

Why will Guild Merits have no use in the new Guild system?

Because the Devs created the new system to use different currencies and have different features.

Good luck.

The disadvantage of using old currencies in new content is that guilds already have some built up and new guilds would be completely unable to compete. By making new currency everyone is on even footing. That’s the theory anyway.

compete ? what competition ? there is a guild competition when HOT launch ?
