Guild Wars 2

So now that you can queue from anywhere in the game world for spvp/tpvp I think now would be a good time to introduce better rewards geared towards PVE.

I am pretty sure most players could really care less about glory/pvp rank/leaderboard so unless the glory system is reworked to reward PVE there needs to be more incentive to get people playing beyond their daily pvp reward. I think giving out rewards like those from pve mini games like sanctum sprint or even giving XP for their pve char for every win (say 5% of their current level per win) would go a long way to maintain a good healthy player base for pvp.

Since anet have made a great step by allowing people to queue from anywhere in the game PVP can actually take that step of synergizing with the Pve/Wvw world. In Wvw you get XP + Loot for Pve, I think now more then ever would be great time to try it out in PVP. Maybe make it so upon a win in tournament pvp, you get a choice between a pve reward chest or pvp reward chest.

Thoughts ?!?!?!

I think ANet is going to have to give out more incentives to get PvE’ers into PvP. Not only incentives, but some balancing as well, which I suppose could be an incentive too, so that was redundant.

Your experience idea was a good one, as in GW1, you gained exp from kills. It would help perma-PvP’ers out when and if, they decide to go to PvE with their toon. And also the other way around, as the exp would help PvE’ers level a little faster while taking breaks from the events, quests etc.

A big one for me personally, is why PvE armor doesn’t carry over to PvP. The only reason I see them not doing it, is to get people to either buy, or re-buy skins from Black Lion, along with Transmutation Crystals. I’m not sure if the skins on your PvE gear stay with your default PvP armor, so I could be wrong about that one. Haven’t decided if I’m staying or leaving yet, so no point in buying anything more until I see some improvements.
