How to make this game playable after level 80? I suggest some fixes.
First – new class of craftable only gear. Something over epic, with maybe more 100 very hard levels of crafting. And components shall drop in lower areas too, with lower chance of course. This will fix the economy.
Second – smarter raids. Smaller but flexible dragons, which hit when they fly. And new AI, which makes raid to attack player who does higher damage.
Third – 1vs1 PvP tournaments in the Mists, with good rewards, and Hero status for winners – which means special chat channel and map icon, like commanders one, and special buffs like 1 minute immortality for example /you know the flame buff from WvW/. New type of group matches, with no resurrection – winner is team with last standing player.
Fourth – names, and chat between opponents in WvW. Longer timings for fortifications, period during which they cannot be conquered, and possibility players from one server to fight each other – Guild wars. Better rewards for guilds owning fortifications.
I know many people here will say they don’t like these fixes. But in fact most of the players have no idea how to make a game. And I bet these changes will make the game playable again.
