Guild Wars 2

Doing dailies is routine for me and love to do sPvP but I started thinking about the daily winner and weather or not it has affected the PvP environment. I’m not here to wine that they need to remove it; I personally PvP enough to have a go-to group of friends to play with but I got to wondering about this.

I feel like when the daily that calls for playing a specific class pops up it calls for people to play classes there not accustom to playing for the sake of a reward and this theoretically could increase the odds of teams consisting of players who might hold a team back or an over abundance of the same profession making teams a little less diverse.

I also considered the fact that some people just trying to get the daily winner done will just play until they get a win before stopping but that could potentially mean the players who drag teams down the most will be playing the longest.

I wanted to hear what others think about this and if they feel like its enough to effect matchmaking.

This has been brought up numerous times in past threads, I and i’m sure Gates has as well, have sent numerous reports on this to our boss.

That’s me on ele, I win like 1 out of every ten games. Up to 7 total wins now! Be very afraid if you see me on your team on ele.

At least you win some. I can’t even kill anyone in PvP unless they afk or something. The only times I’ve gotten a kill was when someone else downed them and I run over and get the stomp.

I could do the daily arenas but the real PvP people want people like me doing real PvP. So, there I am.

I think making it a weekly instead of a daily would be much better:

• They actually get to know their class whislt they play it alot (ie: make it 50 wins/week)
• Will eventually remove farmers with no dedication to PvP

OP what a good way of putting it i dread thief and ele days i usually give up and do a pve one to finish it up that said the old daily’s kept me doing the things that kept me crafting n stuff i never missed the achieves before really that said i applaude the way you put that
