Guild Wars 2

I heard that all the level 54 players were jumped to 80. Was there a decrease in overall points required to hit 80 that caused this, or will future players need to actually do the full amount of points from 1-80?

So like, if a player had been 52 or 53 at that time, would they now have to attain a few million pvp points to hit 80? =D

dude… they just changed that you need 20k points for a rankup at rank 40 until 80. Before it was 45k then 75k then 150k then 450k.

So if you were r52 you should now be around 77-78 or something. Everybody over rank 40 got their rank increased.

And to say something more about this topic. the rank updated sucked balls. It was much better with the old system. r80 was achievable and rank meant at least something (ppl knew who was a skyhammer farmer and who not).

I’d like to have the old system back. Now every idiot is r80

I have to agree… I am rank 81 (bugs ftw) but do not feel like one at all… I get stomped badly by those better than me, and these people are the same rank as I!

It actually was a motivator for me to play. Now i get nothing. The rewards are ok but if i really want something i need to do it in pve to be fast.

there arent even living story reward tracks. But anet doesnt care, they dont listen to the community.

they could save so much time and ressources… Basically every good idea is already on the forums at least with 10 reposts

Again I agree…

This gamemode lacks incentives – ToL is nice, but it is but a moment… You can train for the weekly ESL’s, but it is basically the same teams over and over…

Actual rewards are just missing from PvP now… And it is sad, the combat is way to good to let this mode “die”

I understand that they are working on new stuff and everything, but there were some stuff that shouldn’t have been “deleted” in the first place, such as titles and ranks… Yes, I say deleted because they are freaking easy to obtain at the moment…

Give me a carrot to chase… I love carrots…

Yes its sad. The combat is incredibly good. And incredibly much better than in guildwars1.

but after two years this pvp is still missing many things the previous game had and that makes gw1 pvp still better than gw2 pvp.

seriously..its really sad. So much wasted opportunities

if you need a carrot. Everquest next will do it better

Everquest next is still too far off though

Actually, anet wanted to remove rank completely…. but our awesome community revolted against it, and not we are stuck with the current ranks of little meaning.

What they need to do is make the dead girl’s Katana the first PVP legendary,

they didn’t want unfounded elitism… so they thought no recognition was a better option…. in an MMO PvP game XD

Gw1 was an mmo pvp game, gw2 is an mmo pve game with some sort of pvp

yes everquest next is far in the future. But adios guilwars2 if pvp is not better when it is released

EQN is gonna have kittenty pvp… Calling it now..

EQ is mah nostalgia baby, I still have dreams about bard kiting sarnaks sometimes..
But a Pvp Mega Giant? Naaaaaaaaah.

Not a mega giant. But better than gw2 with an enjoyable pve (which gw2 doesnt have for me, even gw1 pve was better in my opinion)

its not hard to design a better pvp than in gw2

The environment design in EQN is revolutionary, and the class system is more MOBA-esque (read:balancable), but yeah it’s too far off to get on that hype train.

And no it’s not easy to make a better MMO pvp experience, it just would be easy to balance this game specifically for high level tpvp, if that was the only requirement for the balance team.
