Guild Wars 2

PvP issue

These servers that claim to be daily servers but in fact are boost servers. you get swapping wins between Red and Blue teams and all they do is crowed one point and 5-x as many as their server holds cap then step off and other team decaps and recaps. (on and on and on mostly done on spirit watch) its boosting rank and reward boxes to the extreme. and it happens daily. thought this kind of farming/boosting was disallowed?

second they hit reward cap they do it next day. no sense these guys who are bad players and can be 1v4 easily swarm you and abuse the auto balance and just say the most kittened up kitten you ever did read because your taking their boosting time up. just end this and make this a reportable offense please. thanks

Why do you care what ppl do with personal Arenas they paid for?

While this is not in the spirit of PvP, I personally don’t care if people do it.

• “rank” only shows how much time you’ve spent in PvP in total and is otherwise meaningless.

• playing unranked/ranked matches will always grant faster progression (both rank and reward wise) than farming hotjoin.

• playing PvE will always grant faster rewards (levels, dungeon tokens etc.) than farming hotjoin. (exception – unidentified fossils, which in PvE are rng based, so I’ll allow it)

• it keeps players who are more interested in the rewards than actively playing PvP out of the rated arenas. (I encounter the occasional base afker in unranked and it sucks. But without hotjoin farms, I assume I would enncounter this a lot more,)

I have come to see it as an alternative game mode for people to acquire rewards withiut being forced to play PvP/run dungeons/grind Dry Top etc. – it comes with a penalty (is slower than playing the actual game mode) so they’re kind of always just wasting their own time doing it. Sometime people prefer a different type of grind to their usual grind. As long as they’re not getting in my way (and these people are not – quite the opposite), then it’s no big deal.

And then you will come back and complain about even more AFKers cluttering up your regular games.

Lesser of two evils, you can ignore one, can’t ignore the other. Take your pick.

At least they can’t grind out titles.

At least they can’t grind out titles.

Titles, too, just show how much time you have spent in PvP, so I don’t see them as prestigious either way (same as rank).
