Guild Wars 2

I have a suggestion regarding how Guild Enhancement boost percentage is increased.

How Enhancement boost currently upgrades
Currently in order to get the full boost effect of any enhancement our guild will have to get every single enhancement in the game. For our guild this is creating a bad player experience due to the reasons below.

The problems with current process

1. We love to work as a guild to get guild upgrades and we find it rewarding to work towards a common goal. What we do not find rewarding is working towards upgrades that we do not need just so that we could use the upgrade that we do need.

If we as a guild want to get full 10% boost of WXP we currently have to put more resources working towards upgrades that we neither need nor want than towards the WvW upgrades that we really need. We are not finding it rewarding to work towards these upgrades.

The same is true for guilds needing XP boost or any other kind of boost.

I understand that there will always be a somewhat linear sequence of upgrade path, but in this case I think it has gone too far.

2. As a guild we find one enhancement maximized to 10% far more rewarding than 3 enhancements giving 5%. As it stands now the tavern is pretty much useless to us until we get at least 6-7 enhancements unlocked. A 3-4 % boost is pretty much useless in most cases and getting it does not feel rewarding.

In other words, if I am doing PVE I will find a single boost of 10% XP more valuable than having just +5% boost for multiple enhancements like XP, WXP and Karma.

This also means that for small guilds tavern will be useless for a really really long time.

3. Just because a guild is interested in one enhancement it does not mean that it want all enhancements.

Suggestion
My suggestion is to tie the boost level to upgrades within the buildings. For example, I will need 8 (or maybe even 10) upgrades in War Room in order to get full WXP boost or I will need upgrades in Tavern for karma and XP boost increase etc.

I think that this will aligned the Enhancement boosts more towards the upgrades that a guild really wants and there will be less useless upgrades that most guilds will have to take in order to maximize Enhancement boosts.

Regardless of this we are having a lot of fun with the guildhall so thanks for adding guildhalls to the game.
