This is my opinion and providing feedback from my gameplay experience.

Eternal Battlegrounds – as a sole entity, I feel should be allowed to character level 60 and above. Server battlegrounds should remain as is.

Seeing that EB is the largest WvW element and that WvW has been identified as being some of the ‘end-game’ content GW2 does provide- I do feel that EB should properly reflect both of those points.

Some of the benefits:
- Lower some of the queue times to keep higher level character interested in WvW (can’t be interested if you can’t get into the map).
- Level the playing field in terms of traits as well as gear (this should close the disparity gap between a level 15 buffed to 80 than a level 67 buffed to 80).
- Implements a learning curve as to where players can ‘graduate’ from server sided battlegrounds to EB. (Server side battlegrounds do tend to be more forgiving in that players can explain more on the mechanics of events as to where EB can be more active with players more focused on results).
- Prevent issus such as ‘yaking’ in the past, where large amounts of players will defend the yak to quickly level instead of just having to take it away.
- Give guilds and alliances a large playing field to coordinate events

Negatives:
- Some players might want to WvW with higher level friends and won’t be able to due to the cap.
- Newer servers with little to none server transfers would require ‘catching-up’ as people leveled.

I think another negative you might have to contend with is the inflated queue that could come as a result of funneling those who are below 60.

In my opinion, this seems to be devaluing the Borderlands in a sense, in terms of the significance that they hold in the Wv3 overall. It’d become much harder for a designated group to enter that Borderlands to provide the necessary level of presence to maintain a point flow from that area.

The idea is very interesting and I think fine tuning could turn it into a very strong point, though.

I don’t like the idea but with the current way that leveling in WvW works, it would be for the best. If you go and make a character and try to WvW at level 2, you can barely damage the npc mobs much less another player. This is obviously because of gear difference. Low level players are a burden in WvW to be honest, it’s like bringing half a level 80 player. I would love to be able to level and compete in WvW, but there are simply no options for doing that since the gear between WvW is kept the same and there aren’t nearly enough skill points in the battlegrounds and borderlands to facilitate a proper skill progression.

I leveled from 2 to 80 almost entirely using WvW.

So how about no?
