With us going back north into the Shiverpeaks. We need a third option for a guild hall, maybe something with a little bit of snow. I am thinking we could use Eye of the North and rebuild it as a guild hall .

I like the idea and had a slight feeling when I saw the map that this might be possible.

I’m leaning towards not possible, but it would be a great theme in contrast with the other two guild halls.

I’d love to claim a third for my guild to have one on my own, but then I consider how much it would cost to upgrade all of these buildings!

Would still love it though. I’m not big on Norn architecture but I can’t think of anything else that would fit the area. Perhaps some new Kodan/Norn themed buildings nestled within a giant forest using the new maps forest assets? Maybe even a giant sprawling city built into the trees or around the trees. I always loved the way Arenanet built some of the bandit camp tree houses.

Just please, if they’re going to do this, update scribing and reduce the cost of guild hall upgrades! lol

Honestly though, it kind of feels like they’ve abandoned the guild hall aspect of this expansion. They still haven’t done anything with the hidden room under the crystal in the Gilded Hollow or the updraft near the roof of the cave. So it kind of seems like due to player disinterest they haven’t felt like investing the resources.

Partially due to the cost of the upgrades, the complexity of scribing, and the lack of use of guild halls outside of meeting up for guild missions, gathering nodes, and obtaining buffs from the inn. I think if they made a few changes to some of these systems guild halls would see a little more interest, and if they added in something like an in-guild hall mission implementing a placeable treasure chest, obstacle course, or spawnable boss it might give people more of a reason to spend more time in them or invest more into this feature of the game.

It’s one of the reasons I’ve stayed hooked on Guild Wars 2 where in the past I didn’t, so it’s a shame to see this aspect of the game be overlooked aside from a few random decorations being added here and there for sometimes outrageously demanding costs.
