Guild Wars 2

Dear Guild Wars 2 Forums Community,

I believe that Snowball Mayhem, the competitive mode for the Wintersday event, should be made available to the Guild Wars 2 playerbase year-round. As Sanctum Sprint was made available year-round, I don’t see why the same couldn’t be done for Snowball Mayhem (or even aspect arena). However, instead of a rotating daily activity like sanctum sprint & others, it should be available all of the time for those interested in playing it. I just don’t see the logic in providing an enjoyable playing experience only during a very small portion of the year. Dry Top and Silverwastes were made available to players year-round, and the same could be done to various event competitive modes like Snowball Mayhem.

On a separate but related note, I would also like to see a deathmatch mode of Snowball Mayhem, as I much prefer fighting other players to capturing a flag. There’s nothing “uncreative” or “boring” about a deathmatch option (e.g. first team to X kills)—it is still a lot of fun for players to compete against each other.

In any event, I am interested in what others in the GW2 community have to say about this.

Regards,

That just deals with throwing snowballs; it does not have the Snowball Mayhem classes or pvp mini-game.

I was thinking about this as well.

I think it should be included in PvP as an “extra” game mode with preset teams if you like. In many aspects, at least in my oppinion, it is superior than regular PvP.

Great idea as I think Snowball mayhem is the best and certainly most balanced PvP in game.

Aspect Arena was my favorite PvP experience (and the one that made me interested in PvP in general).
