Guild Wars 2

Make “activate upgrades” and “claim/unclaim WvW forts” the same permission. After all, if you can’t activate upgrades, why should you be claiming a WvW fort?

So, I cant have lower ranks activate upgrades while not being able to claim objectives.

I have an idea, instead of complaining about how certain guilds setup their permissions and proposing a solution that would forceably change everyone, how about you talk to the offending guilds in question instead of needlessly merging permissions.

This is why we cant have nice things.

You know that a guild can only own one point in WvW?

A lot of people in our guild didn’t know that until last night when one guy tried to claim a supply camp, “just for fun”. He was a bit miffed that he couldn’t because he does have a commander tag. I pointed out the facts to him, including the fact that we own Garrison on our borderland.

That’s why only a very small group of people should be able to claim fort/tower for a guild. Starting buffs? No problem, but also reserved to a slightly larger group of active WvW players, including that commander.

My my, how upset.

No, you can’t have lower ranks activate upgrades while not able to claim objectives. Why would you want that? What sort of perverse version of trust do you have such that you would trust someone with your car but not the radio station?

Because I want people to use guild banners, spawn guild catapults, spawn guild golems.

There are plenty of reasons I want people to activate upgrades in the guild while not being able to claim an objective.

You crying over a guild claiming and not upgrading is really just personal. Take it up with that guild that did that. There are plenty of guilds that ‘claim’ and dont provide buffs as is, and it has nothing to do with the fact that they cant activate upgrades.

Disagree.

I have “officers” who can control the flow of guild buffs and claim keeps but additionally I have “Raiders” who can claim keeps but not activate the buffs.

The point is to keep “things that cost influence” under tighter reigns while allowing more people to help take advantage of those buffs once they have been activated. The buffs run for 12 hours and officers can’t be everywhere so I think it makes sense to have people that can move the buffs around the map without necessarily having to educate them on the ins and outs of influence expenses.

I don’t really see what problem you’re trying to fix by removing this option.

Because Zoel it is not all about you, what about the others who want to claim the Thrown. Since they stopped the Orb hax seems like you got more time on you hands. The game is broken, and in saying that very broken, but thanks to ppl like you who just give Anet a headache complaining. They don`t just have a magic wand and fix it. It would take them years to trouble shoot all the BS they have created. So my advice would be is just to move on

I may not have the buffs on my guild to share yet but if I upgrade Garrison at 4am till 9am so it’s fully upgraded with my gold, I’m gonna claim that bugger. When I have the buffs I’ll share them but until then if I’m spending the gold when no one else is then I’ll claim :P
