Guild Wars 2

So I q for whatever mode looks like fastest q times. Win or lose, barely care. The UI is horrific as far as informing a player as to what is actually happening so I don’t worry about it at all since the devs don’t seem to care if we know.

The progress meter moves forward and I get chests for various junk. Tons of crafting stuff which is a time sink grind I’ll never participate in. Yet a lot of it is soulbound so it just sits there unless I junk it for almost nothing.

How about throwing in cosmetic rewards to the pvp tracks? Or more pvp boosts instead of pve boosts.

Basically just killin some time in GW2 pvp when i’m bored of other games temporarily. It is low on my playlist because it has no real compelling rewards for pvp unless you wanna deal with frustration, cheating, cheese builds, bad matchmaking, and other issues involved with the ladders.

Where are the compelling casual rewards?

Earning balthazar faction to purchase Zaishen keys to open Zaishen chests for random PvP specific rewards or unique skins would be a lot more interesting than what we have currently.

What we have now is a bunch of chests, that open and give you more chests, that open and give you garbage.

There are 6 unique Gilded Chests that don’t stack.

Other than Raids and specific legendary back items isn’t everything in the game kinda the same anyways? The best you can hope for in general is gold and RNG rolls for ascended (besides buying it) or a precursor.

I wouldn’t be opposed to a “token+rare drop chance” system for unique pvp exclusive weapons, or if PvP was the only thing that touched on raid’s White Mantle weapon rewards… The outcry from raiders would be beautifully insane tho.

But for the lower population of pvp, if you have to spend a ton time in pvp or pop a bunch of pvp potions to get a weapon it might be reasonable, considering the devs likely don’t want to (or can’t afford to) design a new set just for the PvPers. Could also add Mistforged Hero’s weapons as a reward option along with the White Mantle weapons that’ll just trigger everyone.

i’m actually very happy with current pvp rewards. I’m making a ton of gold and I use that to buy whatever skins I want.
