I try to bring this up here from time to time because OS used to be my absolute favorite part of the game, and used to contain some of the best PvP. It’s sad that Anet removed every incentive to go there for some reason, and it desperately needs a face-lift. To draw more people, the reward for Obsidian Sanctum (OS) needs to be MUCH higher. A place that used to have some of the best PvP battles in the game is now totally dead. I used to be able to hop in and spend hours there in fun fights, and now there’s just silence all day long, at all hours.

It was nerfed when the chest became account bound. It was nerfed when they took it out of WvW, thus making it impossible to tell people you were offering ports. It was nerfed further when badge farming became easy in EOTM. Now it’s just dead.

They need to do 2 things to fix it.

1) Make the loot equivalent to a world boss chest

2) Make all red/green/blue servers go into the same OS map, EOTM style.

Do these 2 things anet, please, and bring back what used to be a great part of this game.

Totally dead? You obviously dont play on an active server, do you? OS is packed with gankers from Desolation and Seafarer (mostly Desolation though). I´m on Kodash, and we´re tired of how dull it is to not being able to duel anymore. Instead we have to kill any member of specific Desolation guilds on sight, because once they´re outmanning us, they start to lose their manners. Even Riverside, Elona, Aurora Glade, Augury Rock and Jade Sea were regularily there when we had those in our matchups.

I gladly exchange your server vs Desolation. May be quiet in OS then, but at least not full of ganking trolls even camping and killing everything in the GvG arena whenever they have the chance.
