You can’t get karma from PvP either. What’s the problem ?

- laurels are used for PvE items, it has no use for pvp players whatsoever

I’ll say it again. Those minis and unid dyes aren’t pve nor pvp. Pvp players should atleast get a specific laurel vendor with atleast those 2 things in it.

I mean…why not?

PvP players are like the house dog that watches you eat. Anet will pass out the 3 course meal to the family and make sure to tell everyone, “Don’t feed the PvP players, it will just make them continue to beg”

Gems, Gold, Karma, Glory Points, Laurels, Dungeon Tokens, Fractal Tokens. This is too much for me to handle. It feels messy and clunky. I wish they come up with a more unified, cleaner system than this. It’s chaos!

Look, the PvP players are already messing up the class balancing with their whining, ruining any decent PVE build and stopping the classes on the lower end of PvE usefulness from getting the buffs/fixes they need. Can’t PvEers have some things too?

Glory is a currency to buy items that are relegated to only being used in The Heart of the Mists. Those items are cosmetic upgrades of stuff. You already have the gear, with stats, and a much easier way to get them if you don’t. You have no idea what you are talking about.

btw, I know spell X may seem normal while casting on a stationary mob that does 1 type of attack and you can chase it around in a circle; however, in PvP due to the complexity and dynamic nature of combat, some moves need to be reworked.

Are you kidding me? The same thing can be said about Laurels and PvE…. There is no reason why a PvPer would need anything that the vendor sells, just like a PvEer doesn’t need anything from sPvP vendors.

I don’t think that this is necessarily ANet excluding “pvp players,” but more like certain players excluding PvE. If you do absolutely nothing but PvP, and that makes you happy, then that’s your choice to make. But, this is a game where structured PvP is just one of many important pieces. They don’t bend over backwards to design their reward systems for people who play only structured PvP exclusively, nor am I convinced that they should. A balanced approach is going to be the most rewarding overall — and I hate to tell you, but PvP and PvE are not equal halves. PvE is simply a much bigger part of the game, as is the case for most MMORPGs.

Now, here are you wrong. You’re in desperate need of prestige vendors in the mists because the starting gear is just horrible.

I don’t see any reason to call PVPers whiners. I’m sure many PVPers never even go to forums, and the biggest percentage of them lurk, just like in any other forum. I’m a PVe’er and I have friends who are PVPers who don’t whine nearly as much as I do. lol

But the real answer to the question is that the PVP patch is coming in February, and that will have stuff for you guys. No reason to give you this stuff, when you’ll have your own stuff in a month or so.

I do pve too. Already got world completion once. But oke I’ll answer your Q.

We need something else than 5 maps, endless glory grind for prestige gear out of reach. Me and my lads have been playing to Rank 40+ now and prestige gear is close enough. R50+. Just taking a few months to get there. So Laurells for us would be nice. Even if they only unlock dyes in the mists.

It would have been neat if there were pvp only laurels from pvp dailies, with a vendor in the mists that had cosmetic pvp stuff you could buy with laurels.

Like more fancy stomps or armor skins or tournament tickets or whatever.

Ok maybe they need to add dyes to the glory vendor. I mainly wvw and can earn my daily there so even thou I pvp it’s different. Spvp has a currency and it wouldn’t hurt to have some dyes and minis that could be earned with glory.


It was 2 vs 20 but its ok we got’em both!

How am I wrong? You already get gear from PvP dailies/monthlies, Glory, AND for ranking up.

If you do any pve, you will get the dailies, if you give it a little thought you can do it in the same zone (waypoint costs are never an excuse)

If you don’t do pve you don’t need laurels.

The cost would have to change because now people would be able to farm 2 a day instead of 1. So however Anet figured it, chances are, stuff would have to go up in price.

I think a second reward system should be made for PvP. It’ll be just like the laurels, except only for a new PvP vendor. For the new vendor, all of the armor and skins you can get from tournament chests would now be available.

PvP has a separate daily system, so if it had a reward system, then it shouldn’t be the same as PvE. Endless Mystery Cat Tonic shouldn’t be cut nearly in half because people can get two laurels day.

Ha! No problem, but you get your own, not nice laurels, a thorn crown me thinks. Because PvP is tough. Now excuse me, I have to mentally prepare myself and get ready to try and obtain that masquerade skin for my necro. Don’t hurt me please?

No seriously, I think every way should be viable, but I agree with Blackmoon that not the same currency should be used. Just look at us PvE players as guinea pigs. Once the system is properly tested you’ll get the working solution right away.

  • But because the skill level of the general PvP player is low and we have Portal, Mesmers have got a reputation for being some god tier OP class and that reputation has somehow seeped over to PvE even though it is the worst class in open world PvE and only brought to dungeons for boon stripping/portal/Time Warp.

Oh man, that whole post. I could barely catch my breath after reading it.

Mesmers are godly in PvE. I don’t know what you are going on about. Not only are they beasts at soloing, but they are ALWAYS wanted in dungeons. They bring incredible utility to groups and offers amazing boons like timewarp. In fact, speed runs are designed with at least one mesmer involved to go along with the warriors and guardians.

Anet needs to rethink daily and monthly rewards under the ‘play it your way’ credo. Right now you can’t play it your way and get both rewards, well, unless you are playing it their way—oh, happy coincidence! In a game reward should come from active play of the game not play according to any prescriptive formula.

If you think that’s all mesmers offer it’s obvious you’re not familiar with the profession. There are more ways to do damage than to simply do damage.
