Guild Wars 2

I offer the suggestion that every copper, silver, and gold that goes into upgrading a supply camp, tower, keep, or castle will earn progress in a repeatable achievement, where every time 300g is spent in upgrades the player earns a tier in the achievement, and a commander tag color on their account. Once all the colors are earned, then the achievement is completed.

It offers good motivation to get players to spend money upgrading what their server has, as well as giving players a way to earn a tag through actually playing WvW, and not just having cash to throw around.

A good theory until you consider the opportunities for trolling this presents. If you remember what happened in seasons where people burned supplies to get their achievements, I can imagine people taking a look at where they are at on the title and thinking ‘oh 12g and I can get a badge’ and all of a sudden all your towers are upgrading with NPCs instead of something useful like a waypoint or doors.

Oh think i would have like 100 tags altogether by now then lol. Anyway too many people would just pop fortify before waypoint just because its double the money. In another thread someone had a better idea imo, like first tag ( blue one ) is 100g then additional guild tag 50g and all other colours around same. 300G for each colour is a bit outrageous but hey its Anets way to peel some money out of our poor WvW pockets.
