So, I’m part of a very active guild but the only activity we can run together is WvWvW.

Special Events always send us across overflow servers or simply dont let us play as a team.

Dungeons are 5 people only.

PVP is narrowed down to WvWvW or some tournement with only 5 people at a time.

Should we rename this to “Random Wars”?

Please, I understand premades should never face pugs in pvp and it is great that lonely wolves can still get into toyapocalipses events.

But we need “Join as a party” in ANY activity. Even, we need places where we could bring more than 5.

In that WoW did it right. 25 man for bigger guilds, 10 man for smaller ones.

Toyapocalise was even worse than that island even with a horrid add phase.
We couldnt join in the same over flow and again, we cant join in the same toyapocalipse.

Even snowball mayhem or any other activity. We would LOVE to be able to play together.

Something that might be a good idea would be for them to add a small scale WvW, but have it actually be Guild vs Guild. An instanced map where 2 guilds (or maybe if they add alliances, two alliances) can duke it out. A guild master and/or vice guild leaders could send a challenge to another guild and they could set up and enter a enter a private instance.

Have one map be like a smaller version of one of the WvW maps, a medium sized map, and then a smaller map (so one designed for around 15vs15 or more, medium map for 10v10, and a smaller map for 5v5 or less; actually team size could vary, but there should be a max player limit on the medium and small maps).

Introduce different game modes with this too:

  • Guild Deathmatch (just a straight up points match with either a kill goal and/or a time limit)
  • King of the Hill (one point, many bodies; capture point changes every once in a while at set intervals)
  • Sabotage (a seek and destroy type; each side is trying to take a bomb to the others’ base and arm it)
  • Capture the Flag (How could they leave out this classic )

Capture the Temple of Balthazar as a guild.

Many people really need those Obsidian Shards for their Legendary. After you capture it, post it all over the internet and people might switch servers for those shards. Players might even thank you for your efforts.

Dungeons are 5 people only. <—- isn’t this the general thing for all dungeons in MMOS?…

I think yeah they should bring out some guild vs guilds! It would be great! Also you can still join your guild mates in overflow if you click on them and it should say ‘join’ or something like that.

The PVP tourny used 5vs5 because people complained that having more in serious pvp makes it a mess.

I’ll agree though that I wish they could let parties join certain events!

Are you wanting raids? I’m guessing that’s what you’re referring to right?

They took place between 1013-1070 between Orr Kryta and Ascalon but ended when when the Searing happened so no need to worry

Yes, becouse it is forbiden to enter with guild in dungeons. : | , you cant also make a champion/boss hunting with guild or other activities as W vs W.
Guild wars atm hapening in W vS W . The GH system in gw2, i dont know what is the best appliance for them, an sanbox(will be the new era of mmos i believe) on a island in the mists that can be upgraded//builded by the guild, would be fun??.. and im getting offtopic too much. :<

1st April joke, when gw2 receives a “balance” update.

Everything stated in here is pretty much my thoughts towards GvG. Great post!

Great idea Sollith, but I still wish we had some pve content we could do as a guild (not just 5 people).

*Southsore cove event would be great if we were able to form a raid or something and the 20 of us join in the same overflow. Maybe we should be able to choose wich overflow we were?

  • Snowball Mayhem and Toyapocalipse got ruined for me because I can’t play with my friends. I dont play a MMO to play alone.
  • “Raids” (a dungeon that fits more than 5) would be great.
  • Yes, we capture temple of Balthazar time to time, it is cool, but it gets old.

What… I guess running my 25 man mogushan vaults raid yesterday was just a figment of my imagination then?

I agree with OP there needs to be bigger grouping and way more enter as party options.
