Hi, This is my first post here on GW2 forums!!!

So Realm Ranks!? anyone familiar with DAOC knows Realm Ranks and Realm Abilities where the whole reason to play RVR.. enjoying the killing was a far 2nd best.. REALM RANK was and still is everything in daoc. DAOC did not start life with a realm rank system… it was implemented soon after.

I really hope ANET are going to implement a ranking system for WVW soon because if they do not there will be no real reason to go WVW… I am lvl 80 with full crafted armour,75% jewels and a crafted staff combined with the look of mystic staff….. I am pure RVR person… i dont like PVP its to much npc realm rank bull**** with op classes filling the enemy slots just so they can think themselves the best..

So what hope does a DAOC vet have of getting a realm rank system anytime soon?

As much hope as getting a UI for Commanders, the engine getting fixed so you can see the people you’re fighting, and the end of Tranfers. So… get your patience cap on.

Commander Kaena Godsfire – Guardian
Server – Fort Aspenwood

1, change your gfx settings untill they fix it <npcnames off helps alot>
2, transfers will remain free untill the end of wvw ques
3, my idea would increase wvvw que times your right it probly wont happen untill 2014

People in here HATE the idea of any WvW progression. Look though some of the past DAoC style threads. They are all Fast Food MMO players. They want it bland and they want it now.

I played a firby bard till RR10 and an eld to RR9 solo (post MoC nerf). Not a day one player but started well before DF was out. I would love love love to have progression. Give me Champ Level progression and I would be happy. Anything to have a drive to WvW besides karma/kill count. Give me 1%/2%/3% passive buffs or something like that. As it is now, I am really enjoying doing small man in WvW. That will get old really fast though.

1) the zones are WAY TO SMALL
2) 0 progression. Even if i get the title for WvW kills, it only shows up on the name plate when you click on someone, big deal. Not even sure the enemy can see that.
3) 0 realm pride. Why? Servers swap out every week so there is no rivalry and the free transfers mean you might or might not be playing with the same people on your own server.
4) Because of the limited space you either just run around taking camps/points (pve oh boy) or run into a freggin zerg of droolers. not fun either way.

My suggestions:

1) Increase the zone sizes but leave the same number of objectives. Now I wont feel like im running around my living room bumping into stuff all the time.

2) Progression. There has to be something to strive for character wise. Humans are conditioned to expect some kinda reward and in a game there is no difference. Once your character no longer gets better or even changes, what is the point.

3) Fix the bugs and ban the hackers. This z axis crap is stupid. Love getting someone to a downed state and they float into the ground so they can heal up (seen ele’s do this and I know for a fact that all they have is mist form, rock throw, and craptastic root)
