QoL Request: PvE, PvP, WvW Rules for GH Arena

Hi,

I wanted to suggest the following QoL update for the guild hall arenas.

This comes from a discussion I’ve had with the WvW community in particular, but this QoL applies to the three separate game modes.

Each game mode has it’s respective combat and skill rules.

My QoL requisition in it’s simplest form would be to have an NPC that can set the rules for the Arena, which means that if the players choose PvE rules, PvE rules will apply, if they select PvP rules, PvP rules will apply and if they select WvW rules, WvW rules will apply.

For instance -

  • PvP players can rally 1-5 team members in down state contingent on finishing an enemy team downed player.
  • PvP exclusive skill behavior
  • In PvP, Stealth breaks target.
  • WvW players can rally 1 team member in down state contingent on finishing an enemy team downed player.
  • WvW exclusive skill behavior
  • WvW specific Retaliation
  • In WvW, Stealth breaks target and squad markers.
  • PvE specific Retaliation
  • In PvE, stealth breaks target.
  • In PvE, certain performance enhancing boosters buff player damage, reduce damage taken, etc.

Thanks for reading,

It would be great, but I don’t think it’s possible as originally described. Any given instance is designated to be in one of the given modes; it can’t be more than one mode at once.

So a more realistic request would be to allow officers (with appropriate privileges) to designate the GH as PvE (default), PvP, or WvW and then the game would automatically adjust skills. Another NPC might be able to offer various options for buffs similar to the LA Aerodrome test area, but that would be more complicated.

Guild hall specific is even better.

yeah this is great.

Team Deathmatch for PvP – Raise the AoE cap for WvW – More unique events for PvE

tbh the guild hall arena should have the wvw balance.

I think having the three options is best in consideration that not every guild is WvW focused.
