Guild Wars 2

I have friends in America but live in the United Kingdom. I would like to be able to play tournaments with them without transferring servers because the majority of players I know are based in the EU. However, although we can form a party we can’t take part in tournaments unless we are all in the same region.

It’s very frustrating knowing that if I do want to play with them I have to world transfer, for what could only be a couple of hours, to then be stuck on a server without an ability to move back when our tournaments end.

Is this working as intended? Would it not be better to just allow anyone in any region to play tournaments together?

I strongly agree. Jon had responded to me previously saying that it will remain like this because of lag issues, and there was no information if/when it was going to be changed.
