Guild Wars 2

So with laurels being introduced and all the different cool and good rewards they give, why not make it so whoever wins every week the people on their server get say 10 laurels for people on that server…but in order to get the laurels say a person needs to put in like 5-10 hours of play in WvW and get so many kills or objectives capped? Could get more people into WvW as well and make WvW more rewarding…thoughts and comments?

Absolutely not. It would give advantages to winning servers, there for people would switch to winning servers, It’s dirty but people would do it. At the moment there isn’t incentive for servers to win and that is for the best currently.

That’s true too didn’t fully think of that, though with paid transfers wouldn’t be as bad. but I agree can still see a lot of people transferring

Definitely not.

One of the hooks the GW2 team liked to toss around before launch was that the game was designed to be played how you liked to play it.

Ergo rewarding WvW players with laurels when some players plain don’t like to WvW would be grossly unfair.

Well if were Talking about “fair” than many points could be brought about about difficulty for WvWers to get legendarys/ascended, poor loot for most WvWers, lack of attention from Anet compared to PVE and even sPVP…and they already said their making a reward/ranking system in WvW

Can’t deny any of what you have said above.

But two wrongs do not make a right, and the way that laurels are currently handed out WvWers are able to get hold of them just as easily as a PvEer.

True for daily yes, but monthly requires PVE almost all the time with either dungeon or JPs, but yes it is nice at least we can get some laurels in WvW through Dailys…maybe instead of 1st place make a WVW daily or monthly?

Um…

Ergo rewarding dungeon players with tokens when some players plain don’t like to dungeon would be grossly unfair.

Ergo rewarding stock market players with profits when some players plain don’t like to stock market would be grossly unfair.

Ergo rewarding winning players with wins when some players plain don’t like to win would be grossly unfair.

Silly people.

It goes both ways though. Not sure how the monthlies will pan out since the changes, but certainly in the past the monthlies have often involved getting X amount of WvW kills.

Betting the hardcore PvErs hate that just as much as the WvWers do the dungeon running achievements.

As I said above Anvil Pants, two wrongs don’t make a right so I don’t see how adding more unfair rewards would resolve the issue.

But I appreciate the sarcasm +1

In a game, when I don’t want to do a task that is necessary to accomplish one of the game’s objectives or achievements, you know what I do?

I don’t do the task, and I don’t care about the achievement.

Btw even though most don’t agree with my idea thanks for the feedback! Much appretiated

I do agree with adding more incentives for a team to win in WvW, I just don’t know if rewarding laurels for 5-10 hours of WvW play is the way to go.

I believe that Badges of Honor are already the WvW reward currency.

Rewarding for winning or punishing for losing though? Would be completely different if there was fair fights 24/7 – but this is not the case.

Buying with badges should’ve been the way to go
