Guild Wars 2

Thank you so much for the account wxp! That is awesome!!!!

But nothing has come from any of the wvw CDI. With everything else becoming account bound, I would have thought that commander tags would also be one of them.

You win some you lose some I guess.

Can still come in the “facilitating” blogs…

Though, as much as I’d love that feature, it’s not really something I’d expect to see because of economical consequences.
If they refund everyone their 100 Golds (some people have tags on all their characters, so that’s 700 golds, if they have 8 characters), we’d have too much gold on the market;
If they give back books to those with multiple tags, they wouldn’t have much to do with them, other than sell them on TP for an amount lower than their price (because lots would be put on sale at the same time)

Honestly I don’t even care if they refund already purchased commander tags (I have 3), I just don’t want to buy anymore. WvW players don’t make any gold anyways.

If Anet gave two kittens about players they’d just make commander tags account bound from the start but can only be enabled by characters x level and above (or straight up level 80). At least that would make their weak commander system a bit more viable.

I have 3 also and it sure would be nice to have it on my other 5 80’s

Not because you wouldn’t mind not getting a refund, others wouldn’t mind…

Many, many, many complained when they said glory boosters wouldn’t get changed after PvP changes, some are complaining about dyes changes, some about legendary changes (I’ve got two of the same!), about the new BLTC gathering things (bought 8 of each of the first ones, now they are account bound), and so on…
One guy on my server have 12 characters, all with the tag (might have more, I know about 12). And this guy sure would mind about losing his tag with no compensation…

As I stated, I’m all for account bound tag, but bringing it in the game would prove tricky.
Unless someone can give a sensible idea for compensation for people with multi-tag, I don’t see it happening…

It shoudn’t be acct bound tbh, Gw2 is the most stable game economic wise ive played and its because of all the gold sinks/prevented gold sellers

Yes, there would be a ton of crying from people in here if they made commander tags account bound. Personally, I think people purchased the tag and used it. If it becomes account bound, then they are in the same position they were before. Unfortunately, way too many people will start crying and so ANET probably won’t do anything.

What I don’t get about this change is that it would be in Anets interest to do this. It would bolster the health of the community and wvwvw presence. Though I do think a toon should be level 80 and not an uplevel to use a commander tag. Make it account bound, just with a requisite that one be level on the toon that wish’s to tag up.

Why would I not be able to tag up with an uplevel for karma-training, or funny activities?
I even followed a guy who was an uplevel and did win us lots of fights, most in which we were outnumbered…

If they do account bound commander tags I would like to get 100g worth of gems back for the extra tags I have. All my 80s except the engie have a commander tag.

As far as restrictions on who can use it? There shouldn’t be any. It’s not anet’s task to choose who you can or want to follow, it’s your task.
