Guild Wars 2

Are there any changes planned to make PvP-Rewards more appealing? Right now I see no reason to do the daily anymore, nor play any tournaments because I do not feel rewarded at all. Glory and rank points are not a reward. Neither are glory boosters and Orbs/Crystals/Slivers.

Why did you have to remove paid tournaments and gem rewards? The old three round paid tournaments were worth playing because they were rewarding. You were able to earn decent gem rewards, Qualification points and paid chests, which were kinda exclusive.
Now everbody runs around in Orrian armor, which was impressive some time ago, but now it feels meh. Instead I have to wear the stuff I get from tiger tokens to show how much I grinded PvP. And most of it doesnt look good, except of the fiery gladius ofc :P

Now before anyone tells me to stop playing if it’s only for the rewards and not for fun: Showing off my accomplishments is fun for me. So why is there nothing to show? Why is there no rating, no rank that only increases by winning like the old HA or champ titles in GW1 (I am aware of the champion titles, but those are a joke).

Why is there no way to earn gold with something equal to the HoH chest in GW1? I mean you could spawn a chest at the end of the three round tournament with rare/exotic drop rates. It would also get more people to play PvP and maybe make three round tournaments more challenging instead of a semi-afk fragfest.

tldr: Rewards are crap, improve them, allow PvP players to earn gold/gems
oh and finally add rating ppl can see.

I agree that pvp rewards need an overhaul. I cannot fathom why they let ppl buy paid reward chests with tickets. I had been ranking up in hotjoin and had only done a handful of tourneys, and now like everyone else I have full paid pvp gear. It’s lame for those that really worked for it, and the rest of us have pretty much no incentive to continue to tourney. Especially with the current matchmaking flaws.

I’d play for gold, skins that are useable in pve/wvw, chests with rare/exotic pve gear. But right now there’s nothing in the current set of pvp rewards that I want.

+1

A rare or a chance at an exotic for rewards(on top of the already present rewards) would be amazing and would likely bring back a number of players.

I agree fully on a chance at a Rare or Exotic piece.
