Guild Wars 2

How about rewarding everyone in wvw regardless of what they are doing?

reward players for their time spent in wvw. afkers get kicked.

this will allow for a myriad of things players can do without being penalized.

flip a tower, everyone on the map gets rewarded.

remove the loot bags from player kills, player kills go towards a statistic for the grand chest at the end of the weekly fight.

TLDR : Reward the server as a whole

Haha, that’s hiliarious.

Tell me you’re kidding?

It might stop some people from blobbing….

Use auto run on wall.
Don’t get kicked.
Farm for days.

Anet should be able to fix that.

Oh wait… hahahah right this is Anet we’re talking about.

This doesn’t work. Auto-running still gets you booted in WvW after a certain number of min. Believe me, i’ve tried while I made dinner lol.

I’ve always thought it’d be better just to give map-wide rewards. Perhaps full reward for partaking in the task, and half of the reward if your not part of it.

Map wide rewards cannot be implemented fairly. What defines ‘partaking in the task’? Perhaps a few achievements (kill 50 guards, capture 10 camps) per week? Isn’t that already what we had in the 1st WvW tournament?

Furthermore, we already get the +1 bonus chest to +3 bonus chests for placing in WvW. Asking for more rewards is good and dandy, but serverwide rewards are just hard to implement.

We already have server wide rewards. Everyone on the server gets the benefit of the buffs

I was actually thinking that there should be server wide punishment for everyone when you are losing at wvw. The worse you are losing and the higher your server population the more of a penalty it incurs. If the pve crowd wants the benefit of the wvw buffs they should have to do something to earn and maintain it.

No… If you want rewards, go do something…

I like where you are going with this… but erm… megaserver.

Yeah wtf happened to servers rewards now that we have megaservers? It’s applied to the account?

I heard it’s really hard to set up a macro to press a button every few seconds or minutes. Good thing every MMO already has a solid plan in place for life-like bots, so primitive macro’s like this would get nipped in the butt right away.

On a good note at least most of the servers will have 24/7 ques and we’ll never hear about people not having enough people online during night time to counter night caps…

People could just log on in the morning b4 they go to work, set themselves in a corner and fire off some movement skill via the ctrl click auto activate and stay there all day ………

Or just macro it, like Anet actually checks that stuff lol.

I tried that in the Seasons. It didn’t work out quite how I expected.

You mean like the essential tasks of:

Upgrading
Siegeing
Scouting
Refreshing Siege
Defending
Guarding

that you get so highly rewarded for now?

If you play WvW for rewards you’re probably not wanted there. As far as I’m concerned, the true veterans don’t care about loot, it’s only a secondary benefit to their enjoyment. I spend most of my time scouting, roaming and doing the thankless jobs. I don’t do it because I want to be rewarded but because I enjoy doing it even if it can be very tiring at times.
If they ever start to reward people for doing basically anything in WvW prepare for every map to turn in to an EOTM clone.

Well, I am all for rewards for winning OR participating.
Scouts should get rewarded for refreshing siege equipment for example, etc. etc.
There should be more of a reward for reviving a player (perhaps a loot bag) as that too is a very useful thing for a team.
Running supplies should generate loot (or maybe repairing)?
