i dont think dueling arena should exist.
wot
we’ve all seen what happens in games where there’s no disadvantage to taking your pants off.
Banning seems unnecessary if they have a private match for that it’s fine I hope they at least know that 1v1 is impossible. Specific areas dedicated to it in WvW decrease the roaming and zerg population and purpose …but the hate will come if those are prevented.
The QQ from duels is impairing real balance.
The Dhuumfire thread
Idk, i just feel in this way if i try to think abkut why anet dont make dueling arena. but well do League of legend, the most famous & selling esport, have dueling arena as well?
I dont know about League but i am pretty sure in dota2 (which also one of the more selling and famous esports) there is a 1v1 game mode.

1vs1 with strategy is fine, like gw1 had. however, current custom dueling arena, like leaving only 2 people in a area like desert and force them to just “fight” is ruining game i think.
anybody knows what this guy is talking about?

the reason is simple, if you can determine which one is best by simply making 2 opponents dueling each others then just figure out its result, it ruins game itself actually. if you are game creator you probly dont wanna making your game look cheap by makinh dueling arena so people can find fastest way to conquer the game balance design & system itself. it should leave something abstract and undeterminable to make customer play the game longer i mean. Anet need to ban all custom dueling arena to make game their game valuable.

Short answer: No.
Long answer: The players are in control of the dueling servers, not Anet, they purchased the tokens, they get to choose how the arena works. Anet did not create anything related to dueling yet, it is all player made.
And on top of all that, you want them to BAN the players who are giving them a source of income? good luck with that buddy…

4/10 troll. Kitt is stepping his game up.
Soldier hambow + d/d celestial ele for 2v2
Have fun
And yes 1v1 (Expec if you’re not a thief and outside points) it’s totally worthless…a shatter mesmer can easily win vs soldier hambow just kiting him all day long in open space, but in tournament he’s gonna loose the point, take ages to eventually kill the warrior (Who has the point so he’s actually winning) and more likely he will end up with mesmer being ganked by a thief backupping his (Still alive and kicking) warrior mate while you achieved nothing outside wasting time and looking like an idiot going 1v1 on their point vs something you can’t kill in a decent amount of time. If you wanna 1v1 you should (At least) do it on point keeping it neutral or even capping it…since this is a conquest game and ppl are not just gonna 1v1 around map like hj reterds… (Except maybe thief vs thief, that’s why 1v1 arenas only make sense when it comes to thieves killing each other)
Had a shatter mesmer like this in soloq last night, kept going far on legacy vs celestial war and got roflstomped like 4 times by thief backupping their close from mid (Takes like 5 seconds) and getting back leaving us always outnumbered on gy cause when he was dead both thief and war went mid while he was on respawn ofc. “I can kill that warrior 1v1 if thief doesn’t come” …yeah too bad thief will always go back close, oneshot you (Since you’re more likely be on cd and already half dead) and go back…everything in less than 15 seconds…noone cares if you, maybe, would win 1v1 with warrior…if you’re gonna win ppl with brain will never let you win anyway…ending up wasting time on their point like an idiot. 1v1 hero at his best….
You go 1v1 on their point in 2 cases:
You can decap it really fast keeping it contested for long time 1v1, no need to kill the guy anyway. (That’s the case of decap engis)
or
You can keep 2+ of them there for long enough (Even if they get the point) to give your team a numeric advantage in other teamfights. (That’s the case of bunkers going far on opening..d/d eles for example)
Outside those cases you’re just wasting time and making your team loose….tpvp is not freakin angz yolo arena

i love 1v1 heroes. but you have to accept, that people want their different game modes and if they’re doing 1v1 as a game mode or 2v2 as a game mode, then it’s not a conquest game anymore. simple as that

too bad 1v1 game mode doesn’t exist…it’s like ppl wanting to build barracks and town hall to train more minions in LOL …it’s not a part of the game. end of the story
The day we get 1v1 or 2v2 rated ques we will talk bout that…for now the only mode (Bad or not) is conquest…ppl should deal with it.
you’re basically right, but it’s not really our business, what people do with their custom arenas. if they decide to turn it into a king of the hill arena, then they bloody well should be allowed to. if you don’t want to fight on those, you don’t have to.
also, i have to agree with you that people should deal with conquest mode. it’s simply horrible how there’s always stupid offpoint zerging in sQ.

Oh, yes, this makes so much sense.
Ban me for using dueling arenas to teach people the Mesmer class.
Ban me for testing bugs in said class.
Ban me for trying out new builds/trait mechanics.
Oh wait! Don’t forget to ban me if for whatever I actually ENJOY 1v1s over other game modes, because you don’t understand why I’m having fun. God forbid people find different ways to enjoy the game.
Im sure you can see where I’m going with this. People use dueling arenas for all sorts of reasons. Sorry OP, but that is a pretty ignorant perspective.

Sometimes, people like to measure the length of their stick.
I love to turn those people egos from kilometres to millimetres.

That happens everytime a PU mesmer pushes my close thinking he would do something….
“…but in 1v1 arena i’m so strung….”
come on my point bro…i’ll show you..

And permaban all who 1×1 at OS and WvW!!! They deserve it!!!
Both GW1 and GW2 are not properly designed for duels. You can have duels, but the builds are a major factor determining the result.
Duels can be something friendly, just for fun, but never something rewarded or scored.
Because of that, duels in PvP can’t go anywhere but in custom arenas.
If you the OP means that ‘dueling areas’ people make using custom arenas should be banned of forbidden, I can’t agree. It’s the arenas they got for their fun. They have reduced rewards and they have control over them. They can do whatever they want with them as long as they don’t break the game’s rules.
If he meant people should stop using standard arenas I agree. If you want to make up your rules in an arena, get a custom arena. If it’s one of ANet’s standard arenas, it’s everyone’s arena, so if ONE player doesn’t want to follow some made up rules and follow the standard rules, it’s like when ONE player wants to complete an an event while the rest want to fail it to farm. All must follow the standard mechanic if one wants, because that’s what that thing was meant for.
If he means that an ‘official’ duel arena should not be added, I agree with that. It’s better to stick to 5v5 matches for maps with PvP rules, much easier and better to balance.
If he means to punish WvW solo roamer prats seeking “green arrows” that are probably just there to get some map points. Well, they are dolyakarses, but they are not breaking any rules, you can’t punish them for being bloody louses as long as they are not rule-breaking louses.

Banning people for making dueling arenas? Seriously?? O.o
The game is not balanced around 1v1 so there is no problem with it.
If the top dueling class is a celestial ele that does not mean that the best team comp is 5 celestial eles…
1v1 does not matter for conquest gamemode.
