Lmao.. this made me laugh so hard.
2.5s
4 blues
1 green
1 karma jug
League winners:
Ascended backpiece chest — where you pick the stats you want in a popup.
Karma
Dragonite Ore
Gold
Mini dolyak
2nd Place:
All of the above, except instead of ascended, you get exotic
3rd Place:
All of the above, except instead of exotic, you get rare
4th and below:
All of the above, but RNG backpiece of rare/green/blue
a mini
1000 bloodstone dust
5 blues
3 greens
1 yellow that gives no ectos
Hahaha. I’m sure everyone is waiting for that. xD
Dream on jayne… I highly doubt anet is foolish enough to give the strongest world even more advantage over the others by handing out ascended.
But my guess:
1 rare or exotic
WvW Champ bags (according to rank)
1000-100 badges of honor (according to rank)
Dragonite/empyreal (according to rank)
WvW xp boosters (according to rank)
10-1 gold (according to rank)
And of course a dolyak mini :P

Oh I dunno. Given that Anet has a plan in the works where everyone can get access to the ascended backpiece, it makes sense that league winners would get the perk of owning one a month or so ahead of everyone else
Anyone remember that 80’s horror movie The Blob?
season 1 winners should get a mini version of that

Dream on Grump, thinking that they’ll give anything based on rank.

Oh my gosh, that’s awesome man, I laughed pretty good at that one, it’s just perfect. I wonder how many people would be offended by that one?
As others have mentioned, it may not be the greatest idea to hand the stronger servers an advantage over the weaker servers, but a reshuffling of the league structure could help to remedy that.
As for what I’m expecting, probably a mini, a title, some more dragonite/bloodstone/empyreal materials so I have to buy another bank slot, followed by some stuff I’ll salvage without ever thinking twice about. Time will tell I guess.

RNG chest where you have 0.001% chance for precursor (if you have played less than one week) 0.01% chance for ascended 0.1% chance for exotic rest is green.
And world xp bottle.
I imagine everyone gets a chest since everyone needs to achievements for the key. 1st will then get the gold trophy finisher, 2nd silver, 3rd bronze. Nothing else.
Is it too much to hope for a mini zergling?
The league winners will get a gold/silver/bronze dolyak finisher…we know that for certain…
99.99% of all other players will get a chest with 2 greens and a blue…same as you always get in GW2.
More then I would have gotten before league.
I think it’d be very well received if they gave laurels, achievement points, flat gold, wxp items, and maybe a 20 slot account bound bag. I think people would really like those because pretty much everyone can use them (except SPvPers but they could throw in some SPvP thing too).

This seems like a bit much. Take out the mini and the bloodstone dust and replace them with like 10 silver. Then it would be more in line with normal WvW rewards.
2 green
1 dolyak

Seriously, a letter from Anet to say this never again. League sucks.
first place may get and exclusive finisher and mini
-but for the rest of us probably access to exclusive weapon or armor skins (think like the zenith, where you get to pick the weapon and stat from a list)
-WXP (based on your servers finishing rank)
-gold (again based on server rank)
-1-2 yellows
-exclusive wvw mini for finishing the achievement
and sometimes even a decent human being
crafting materials and random green/blue drops would be a just reward for all the pve kittens that stormed in wvw just for achievement points.
Disapointment is what i expect. Mass disapointment as all the PvE’ers are harshly reminded that WvW rewards suck, and they go back to autoattacking some worldboss for 5min to get a better reward.
I am really hoping it is something good. If it is not so great then I guess the turn out for season 2 will be much less. Even if you played casually in wvw before the season to be able to get the key you had to play much more.
With a precursor as a reward I’ll be happy for the entire lifespan of this game as long as it is not one precursor that cost less than 100 gold…
With the time spent on getting the achievements done…lol they better be rewarding, but then again, with the recent trends….
Access to Tower of the Mysts until end of next season.
Gold to 3rd floor, Silver to 2nd, Bronze to 1st.
1 Gold, Silver or Bronze medal that can be exchanged on respective items and armor skins on respective levels of towers (prices start with 5 medals per piece)
Rest gets medal scraps.
Crafting recipes for “Advanced” siege weapon versions:

Silver gets Advanced Trebuchet
Bronze gets Advanced Ballistae
rest gets Advanced Food Dispenser receipt
Additional titles depending on result of your server.
Gold – Veteran Queuer
Silver – Veteran Ambusher
Bronze – Veteran Ambushed
others – Been there, burned that

No, no, and no.
Giving useless cosmetic reward is ok because it affects nothing.
Giving “exclusive recipes” for the winning server so they can be more advantageous in WvW? Just NO.
Then why give 100% and get out there every day for your server if it’s just going to be fluff reward … Or the “everyone gets the same thing” reward? Please no. Make winning actually mean something. This is supposed to be a competition, not a pve event.

turns your char into a wardian. you no longer need to be either war or guardian for zerging with your server, now you have the best of both.

Most of server players doesn’t deserve reward at all so it’s kind of stupid give good rewards.

I’m on SOS. We are pre determined to get 6th place. I expect my rewards to be a blue and a single pile of glittering dust.

This, so much this. Most of them walk along hand in hand with the zerg. Why should you give them anything useful.

Maybe they should start to give reward for everybody when somebody in server kill tequatl.
Can’t figure out why they can’t just give better rewards for league and server top players. They have statistics how many enemies you have killed or how many times you have capped objective.

2 blues, 2 greens, and an unsalvageable, unforgeable exotic with stats you don’t need.
Imho, something ascended.
Come on, you know it’s gonna be something worthless. Except for the Karka precursor deblacle, rewards in this game are NEVER good.
I expect to see some WXP vials, some badges, some siege weapons, 15-20 silver, blues and greens (a rare if you a lucky) and some form of RNG item.

Lol.
I guess I wouldn’t qualify under your rules I avoid the blob train like the plague, tower flips are a low priority unless I’m ninjaing them solo or with a few friends, my kill count is low compared to others out there, but I sure do know exactly where every last one of you are on any map I’m on — and I let my teammates know, too.
I guess that makes me a bad player and I’d lose out on the reward. Thankfully I don’t WvW for the reward. I just like the competitive element of it (in fact next time it’s Piken vs SFR (or are you Viz?) let’s have a friendly duel — I’ve offered before in the past dear Junkpile, but you keep playing coy. ) Best player gets the prize?
That said, I really have no issue with people getting any reward who have not put in the same hours as I have. The categories for the achievement were extensive enough that each player had to contribute a chunk of time to finish them, and in the process helped the server, hopefully falling in love with WvW like the rest of us.
In the end folks, it’s just pixels on a screen, but I do sincerely feel those pixels should have some kind of wow factor for the server that comes out on top. I’m enjoying the leagues, I want season two to be an even bigger draw, and that sometimes only comes with the shiny carrot.

I’m surprise that no one mention precursors!
An ascended chest would be nice. But I’d be surprised if we got an exotic.

Since the reward is only for people who complete the meta, it seems like it should be reasonably nice. Here are a few things that seem fair to consider:
- Finishers – seems like you could make them by tier and finishing position
- Weapon skins – again you could have them indicate level of success
- Back piece – what’s a meta without a back piece?
- “Monetary” rewards (gold, rare items, exotic items, badges, wxp) in proportion to the amount of time it takes on average to do the meta (I’m guessing it’s maybe a minimum of 40 hours WvW play to do the meta – excluding rare cases.)
- Small chance of precursor, ascended weapon
Devon Carver mini.
Tradeable WvW exclusive Devon Carver mini dress up accessories.
each rank you earned during the season = 1 gold
The winners should get a town clothes nightcap.
