Guild Wars 2

Hey all,

So this is going to be simple. I’m seeing these Nodes that you add into your home instance as rewards from Living story or things from the gem store. For example, the Candy Corn Node / Crystal Node / Krait Shard Skill Point / and now the recent 3-Node pack of Copper, Gold, and Silver.

Now of course, these are just simple nodes. I’d think it’d be interesting however if Arenanet would make it so your Home Instance has a small little change for every unlocked Node / Etc that you unlock inside your Home Instance.

Instead of having some random node literally sitting out in the corner of your building, why not instead just unlock a new area, a stairway someplace that leads down into this cavern/mine where ALL of the nodes you’ve unlocked will spawn. Adds more of a realism of the nodes coming out of the ground instead of the floor of a building.

That could also lead to other small areas that become added for what you unlock in your personal story:

- A small game-arena where NPC’s of your home instance are playing that are involved in achievements of new activities that are introduced. I am speaking for example Belcher’s Bluff and having to duel a Belcher in each Home Instance of each race.

- A garden where, instead of getting only nodes, you also unlock herbs for gathering or trees for chopping.

That’s all I got for now, what do you all think though?

I believe they will one day release trees and herbs for home instances simply because they have mining nodes already. As far as having the nodes in a realistic place, why not? Doubtful it will happen anytime soon though simply because it isn’t a major issue or concern at the moment.
