Guild Wars 2

Currently the only reward in sPvP is cosmetics and glory. What would be wrong with allowing players to level through sPvP, gain gold or laurels? Why is the daily/monthly laurel PvE OR PvP not PvE and PvP? I’m loving PvP but if I’m doing it I’m not gaining anything, I’m not making gold, karma, levels that can be used towards anything. Why can’t a tournament win give a small amount of karma, 10 silver, and some experience?
Sorry, this is kind of a rant, but I’m a PvE/WvW that enjoys PvP but the lack of rewards keeps me away.

They are aware of that, and you can get laurens from Spvp by doing the pvp daily / monthly

But what i cant get thru to my mind is why you cannot make money OR gems in Spvp

Ye i know the dyes, gems item shops and custom arena is completly optional i aint forced to buy it yes i know that already

One of there biggest problems is how easy you can get a tournament chest. If they simply hand out everything, of course people will want more.

I use to get excited getting a chest in the 8 team tournaments back then, but since the push for 2 team tournaments by offering more reward and more glory it hasn’t been the same and that was the death of 8 team tournament, now you just play a game and win and you got a free chest, which is pretty much just handing us free stuff.

I don’t think making rewards harder to get and more infrequent is the solution people are looking for…

Kuruptz you only get laurels if you didn’t get your PvE laurels, it’s an either or. You can’t get laurels for PvP and PvE.

+1 to this.

They should at least give a small karma+silver+exp amount for every WIN (not loss) in tpvp and spvp. This will also encourage casuals to play towards winning and not roaming for duels.

On top of that, we have a problematic reward system, which rewards ONLY the best grinders. The quality of gears should reflect players’ skills, not their total time spent. It doesn’t matter how much time you spent playing PvP mode, that has almost 0 correlation to your skill!
