Guild Wars 2

I know a version of this idea has been mentioned before, but here is a modified one that also helps PvE people.

The idea is for each matchup to pair the EU and US servers according to their ranking. Top EU server is paired with lowest US server, second with second lowest, etc.

Now the modified version is to make their scores the sum of both servers. Also (and this is the part that the PvE people will enjoy) make transfers between those two servers unlimited while the matchup is going on. That way the top servers can help fill out the bottom ones and PvE people can get their bugged skill points and things like that.

This will help both servers because the bottom one gets much needed help, and the top ones get to play WvW when their queue times are hours long.

The middle servers hopefully benefit from the opposite side having queues during their peak hours and being able to go to the other side. Maybe you can even adjust WvW limits to reinforce this.

Another benefit, is you won’t be caught in an endless drop. Since every time you drop you are paired with a stronger sister server.

Thoughts?

Why does bottom server need help?

If you play on a bottom tier server, you know most of us don’t want transfer.

We learned since release, that going for top tier wasn’t a good idea. We have really good fight at bottom tier, no queue, minimal night capping and low cheesy tactics (I have yet to see portal bombing or Staking).

People have to stop seing dropping tier as a bad thing. I think Gate of Madness will agree on this. Since they dropped in our tier, they love it.

I don’t want to be paired with a top tier server, having their mass transfer guild coming to us and destroying our communauty.

Might sound selfish, but If I wanted to have queue, hack and cheesy formation, I would transfer to BG.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Kudo’s!

Because of balance. This would be the quickest way to create balance and ensure it for the future regardless of most things creating WvW imbalance.

The middle range tier would never move and so it would not be balance.

We don’t care about balance, we the bottom feeders.

Life’s great on Ruines of Surmia, plenty to farm and never queues. We just need to get rid of a couple of individuals that still haven’t understood that scores are for skateboarders.

But things aren’t great at most of the other tiers. And when some of us start falling to your tier, things won’t be great there either. Also, the middle range tiers not moving means things are balanced. Right now it’s highly imbalanced there.
