Guild Wars 2

Dear Anet,

If you are trying to encourage PvE players to enter WvW then you should introduce build templates or have a default WvW build for each class (just like sPvP).

Your truly,

I understand where you are coming from, but I don’t agree. Half of becoming better in WvW comes from experimenting and faceplanting and getting back up and trying something else. Cookie cutter builds would create predictability that would make wiping a new pve player group much easier than a speculative build.

I have a unique build that I covet … Why? Because it took me an awful lot of experimenting to discover what works best with my playstyle … And often the enemy I encounter expects X and gets Y with me.

I agree, when you enter WvW for first time the game should suggest you a few builds to try with infos on it and whats the role of this build and some quick infos on how to play it.

A build template will not help you. You really need to play how you are comfortable. Start with your PvE spec and then modify it based on what you are doing.

Want to zerg? Get more VT
Want to roam? get swiftness or 25% speed increase
See a warrior? Run

Those are three good points.
