Guild Wars 2

Hi ,
(probaly Arenanet won t see this tread or this tread won t get high on the discusion tread. I also don t know if this is the good forum to post on).

Well I am a huge fan of duels and GvGs. I love the obsidian sanctum add, but their is one problem. People only can do GvGs or duels with people from the server which they are against with in WvW. So this is my suggestion: make 9 or 10 obsidian sanctum servers which people can enter from the wholle region (like here EU 27 servers /3 = 9 or NA 24 servers / 3 =8 obsidian sanctum servers.). This way people can duel eachother even they aren t fighting them in WvW.

So this is my suggestion.

-add 10 obisidian sanctum servers for NA and for EU
-make these servers region wide (so copper guilds can fight gold guilds)

One of the big negatives for this idea is:

People who want to do the JP are quite screwed if every OS map is full or people are screwing them over.

I know this is quite a big change , but I would love to see some big GvGs or duels.

Plz post your oppinion here

[Edit] I put [Suggestion] in the title.

The upcoming Edge of the Mists map will place all servers of one colour together, which means you will be able to encounter players from servers outside your current matchup. That should help a little with the GvG issue.

I have never played in eotm, but based on the pictures/videos, isn’t there very little room to maneuver around? I could see GvG’s being less about skill and more about who popped fear/knockback first.

Wow I didn t know that.

Some questions though:
- what Vol.7601 said will there be enough space?
- Can you choose sides , because if 2 guilds want to fight eachother but get rostered in the same team , it still wouldn t work.
-Is the map big enough? (bit like question one, but this time without getting interupted by mobs or zergs)
- Will small server benifit from this? (because of no que so no GvG’s)

I’ve never played in the map either, but in a map that big surely there must be a spot large enough for GvGs? Also, I’d guess that you can only fight against guilds in servers that don’t share the same colour as your server, but being able to fight against a server not in your matchup is already a big bonus. As for small servers, I don’t know, I guess that boils down to whether you can end up in the same map as the guild you want to fight.

But the problem is, 2 guilds can t tell eachother a time to fight, because you never know if EB or other BL are full.

This makes GvG’s almost imposible :C

I was specifically referring to EotM. The normal maps don’t get any changes. EotM is designed for people who want to do WvW but are queuing for a slot in the main maps. It’ll be accessible from the WvW menu and will be the only WvW map that will not count for points per tick and can overflow when it releases.

But can small servers which do not have a que still enter EotM

Anyone on any server can enter the map, but they will spawn according to their server’s current colour.
