I like the idea of the tournament. I think the only downside is that there isn’t a lot of team competition in the US. Is there really anyone who will win over FC/GF?

To be fair, Anet hands out legendaries to “undeserving” people through RNG all the time. But undeserving should really be unearning through perseverance because that’s all RNG is. I can literally make a new toon, grab a few cheap items on the way to the Mystic Forge and get a Legendary. The chance is small, but that is how it works. That is undeserving of a legendary.

In contrast the PVP winners will be a group of people that have worked their kitten off over several months/years to be very skilled players. This is the exact opposite of unearned or undeserving.

Personally I hate PVP and I’ll never do it for reasons I’m not going to explain, but I’ll never say the winners of this PVP tournament haven’t earned it. If you win, kudos.

I agree with you and think the winner deserves one. That said, based on your logic, the same applies to WvW players. Some of them really do nothing but WvW. Since you opened this can of worms, I hope you have answer for that as well.

There is no reason to split the GW2 community over this. If youre a PVE player that thinks this is unfair, why not form a team and compete? Think of it as just another chance to nab a precursor or a legendary and actually show up! The more teams that compete in this the better!

And yes, GF/FC have the best chance of winning the NA tourney but what tournament doesnt have a favorites? Plus there are prizes 1-8, so newerish teams shouldnt be discouraged to at least TRY and compete. This could be the spark the NA community needs to gain some fresh faces.

Car Crash [CC] Will be back for this. Great Idea. Also to all the pvers who are whining.there are many pvpers who spent over 2000-3000 hours of gw2 and guess what, not a single nice skin to show off.

I would have thought that your PvP locker was pretty much full after 2000-3000 hours of playing?

Full of items you can get for 30 mins of pve play.

How about we trade you guys rewards. You get our pve lockers, we’ll take your legendaries. Deal?

Really? 30 minutes? Where can I do this? Surely if it’s only 30 mins then there’s no problem for you either? Regardless, that deal sounds good to me.

PS I don’t have a legendary and relatively few nice skins as I don’t have time for multiple dungeon runs. Also I don’t mind this so much despite it excluding non sPvPers from a chance at the reward I just fine the idea of someone having no nice skins after 3000 hours to be ludicrous.

I meant the pve population as a whole. And I do have tons of pve sets from dungeons, all of which were substantially easier to get in pve than in pvp.

So let’s take all the legendaries you pve players have, create a ratio to downscale it to the pvp population and distribute legendaries to XX% of pvp players.

Now you pve’er can get our 5 legendaries from this tournament.

Oh, and we get your weapon skins exclusive to pve as well.

Sounds legit.

We’ll also trade you our gold and glroy for your gold and karma.

Not really, PvP is much less content than PVE. There is nothing as tedious as 100% map completion in PvP for example.

It is more strategic in WvW than in PvP. More options = better strategy.

Plus, interestingly enough is that last weekend’s unpublicized GvG between two top guilds generated over 1200 concurrent viewers. There aren’t many PvP tournaments that generate anywhere near that many.

Really? A legendary for winning a single tournament while others have to farm 100s of hours for one? Disgusting. Guess Anet only knows extremes with rewards, either almost nothing or precursors/legendaries lol.

We’re not just handing them out.

First, I do understand that you are no giving away Legendaries. After all, 5 best PvP players surely deserve this reward for their commitment, skill and time devoted. No doubtely they deserve some cool, special and precious reward for it.

Secondly, I am a bit annoyed just because all they did was to play what they enjoyed the most (PvP) and did not have to go through really stupid grind, RNG, bugs, maps, grind, gring and grind.

I guess you (ANet) plan to host such tournaments on regular basis so every devoted PvP player wil have a chance of getting a Legendary now (would be very mean of you if you didn’t) but there is a massive difference between working ones kitten of and actually enjoying the part of the game.

I got my legendary bout a 8 months ago when it was relatively “cheap and easy”. I dumped the parts of the game I enjoyed most (WvW and PvP) just because I had to do something fun in a way but (in the end) boring as hell. You have eluded the GW2 community with the promise of “Scavenger Hunt” and “Way to craft Precursors” for months and no solid proof it is coming came along the way and this is the part which really annoys me to be honest.

To sum up, top PvP players DO deserve Legendaries. They should get such reward long time ago but you ANet should not diminish the effort and devotion of PvE/WvW players at the same time. Especially WvW players who are the backbone of each server community.

This being an online tourney with no need to travel and no ‘monetary’ prizes I am 99% sure it’s open to anyone over 13… since you have to be 13 to be ‘allowed’ to play the game.

So the small handful of teams who have stuck out for the longest time will be getting a legendary for free, that’s awesome for them they deserve more than anyone in pvp.

But my biggest concern is will pvp legendary weapons become available to general pvp population (like myself for example playing pvp since launch).

I don’t care about when I don’t care about how we would get them, but dear god i hope they are going to be available to the general pvp community.

Also I 100% agree that those teams should be able to get the legendarys first.

But this has literally been the driving force that has kept me optimistic about the future.

Please tell me we will all be able to get them grind for them or whatever at some point ! (a hint a wink anything)

For those saying “they had to work so hard in PvE” I have little sympathy due to one simple fact.

If you’re good enough to win a tournament with a team may I add, then you have poured hundreds of thousands of hours together to be able to do so. You have had to build together, conquer challenges together and be able to defeat equally hard working teams.

When you think of it this way, grinding is nothing compared to the hard work and challenges associated with winning this tournament.

Sorry but this is irrelevant. Yes they put a lot of work into being good at PvP. That work is different to the work you put into to get a legendary. The people who made it deserve it. Those who don’t make it don’t. To put it another way its value is purely based on the effort put onto it, giving these away diminishes legendary weapons.

Saying someone put a lot of work into PvP so they deserve a legendary is like saying someone put a lot of effort into medical school so they deserve a legendary.

Edit: BTW if they created a new set of legendaries for this, not the current one that would be cool

I don’t see a problem with giving out a legendary to the best 5 pvpers.

Realistically a legendary is only 2-3000g and considering how long PvPers have played with almost no monetary reward I think it’s not that bad to give FIVE (not everyone!) players a nice reward.

I would also be happy to watch top pvp players smash the living daylights out of those ‘wvw roamers’ and ‘gee v gee’ types if they even attempt to try and play pvp

Giving away legendary weapons/precursors is honestly an amazing way to get people interested in pvp. This tournament is a giant leap in the right direction for anet, and it almost makes me want to come back and play in it. I would be 100% down if we had a new game mode, conquest is just so boring and I’m not sure if even legendary weapons will get 16 teams of skilled players to participate.

It may end up being one or two teams of high end pvpers (if they are still around/willing to return) vs a bunch of pve players looking to try and get legendary weapons. This type of tournament would have been absolutely amazing to have around a year ago…unfortunately it may be a bit late now. Regardless, I have to give my props to anet for coming up with these great incentives to get players interested in a competitive tournament. Bravo!

Do you know approx around what hour it will be? So I know if I should ask my asian friends or it will be too late at night for them.
