Guild Wars 2

Please please please take some notes from WoW and allow us to 1v1 in towns.

It’d be if both parties agreed of course, or sort like the costume brawls.

There is so much smack talk in HoTM I feel it’d really make things interesting.

The biggest issue is, everyone runs PvE builds… there are specific PvP builds that simply perform 2x better and each class only has one or two higher performing dueling build. To top it off, these builds aren’t even useful in competitive pvp as they take too much work and coordination to make them viable in 2v2/3v3/4v4 + scenarios.

Unless there was a sign that says, “you should use this dueling build”, people would utterly complain about balance issues (because they don’t know any better) and will ultimately cause more drama in pvp.

Other than that, yea i’m totally for it!

You will always have smack talk in Multiplayer games haha, it’s not something you can just solve with a 1vs1 system.

It would offer a fun dynamic to the game although it would have to be carefully thought-out. Like, go to a pretty secluded place and/or have some sort of mini arena appear on the spot. Maximum of 3 mini arena’s at a time in one map, something like that would kick *ss.

If Anet would want to put something like this into the game they might first create a system to save your builds, like they had in GW1. That would make it much easier to access 1vs1 builds and setups, but that’s a whole other topic hehe.
