Guild Wars 2

i know eotm isnt really wvw, but i noticed that there have been ALOT of players in eotm lately. i think maybe a revamp in the design of the map would be good. any ideas?

I read this and howled with laughter.

Thank you, sir!

its true. eotm sees a lot more action than wvw. as you know, eotm has multiple maps and most of these maps are populated and a commander is always present ( i’m a commander ) with such a huge number of players playing eotm, perhaps it could get an improvement.

• im a eotm player so if you’re one too, join my guild mail me or something in game lol

As EoTM is a mix of all the same-colored-servers across all tiers, it is naturally fuller than any of the borders.
Plus, it has the reputation of easy levels, k-train and champ bags.

Noticed that a number of people who were disappointed with the current WvW have sought refuge in EB and/or EoTM (or anywhere else just to get out of the nightmarish map they thrust down our throats).

It may be time to revamp it a bit.

I recall reading a post about changing maps.
1 of each map instead of 3Desert + 1 EB, it was suggested that its going to be 1Alpine, 1Desert, 1EB and 1EoTM.

IDK if it will get traction, but it could be interesting.

Hmm… I’m assuming EotM is getting players because people are returning from new PvE content and sitting in EBG queues while ignoring the BLs. But if more people are suddenly joining the game mode and making it popular, why a revamped design? Sounds more like it’s got the right design if it’s pulling people in after having existed for quite a while.

@Chiccotot, yeah, I saw that post somewhere as well. Don’t really see how EotM could work as a borderland, myself, as it’s got an even/balanced layout (the whole idea of a borderland is that the owning server has to try and protect its land). Same with EBG. Almost the same with the desert borderland, with the current waypoint scandal. I think EotM still works better as a standalone, combination-of-all-servers map rather than a borderland rotation. And the desert map would as well. Better if alpine had two reskinned semi-clones (different biomes, same essential layout) that were in rotation as borderlands. So… 3BLs (alpine and two similar), EBG, EotM, and the desert map.

Still begs the question… what would be redesigned in EotM?

EotM work because people don’t take it too seriously. It will be kitten when some team speak noobs come there with their rucksacks and lame tactics.
