Guild Wars 2

It would appear that Pip acquisition has received a buff: base for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place for each tick upped to 5, 4, and 3 respectively. (from 3,2,1 before)

So, helps out new and old players some.

This was much needed. I was seriously getting burned out getting enough pips to get through Diamond each week.

Same.

It also means you don’t have to feverishly grind to the end of a track either, you can stop mid way without much penalty.

I wasn’t, but am gold rank, so that helped.

I am glad they didn’t drop the other levels as some buff for experience is good.

And if it helps newer people to the mode play somewhat more, than it’s good.

Of course, there will be people on both sides that complain….. Like everything.

OMG thank god. This is a great decision and was sorely needed.

It was desperately needed, at the lower end it was painful when your world was in third place.

It also takes a lot of pressure off the need for being outnumbered to get your tracks.

Yes, this was a very much needed change and I am glad they did it.

+1 to ANET for this and the legendary armor for WvW (though not quite sure on the costs of getting it, but meh – eventually I will get it playing the game mode I like).
