Guild Wars 2

I just spent 30 minutes trying to get into a PvP fight/match/whatever name is and kept getting spectator mode. I just want to try some PvP, but it is so painful just to get into a match I may never try again. Where is the random arenas portal like GW1? I could try PvP out then. The Wiki is absolutely zero help. I know I am I PvEer but come on. I know I can’t be the only person to have this problem.

Just press “Play Now” and join a game. If that doesn’t work, press “Play Now” again.

Or use the PvP browser.
But keep in mind, even though the “offical Servers” (those with numbers) have 20 slots, there are only 10 players allowed to play on a map (the other 10 only are able to spectate).
So make sure you only enter a server with <10 players on it.
