Guild Wars 2

Hello

There are several titles you can get from various achievements that you can select for your toons and are shown under your name to fellow players. However one thing you can not see is the current wvw rank of the players that are on your side.

My suggestion is that wvw ranks should be considered as achievements and you should have an option to select “<Your current wvw rank>” from Hero -> Achievement drop box so that the players on your side would see your rank too. The information is available for your enemies but somehow is hidden to players on your side. If you make it an optional (you can choose whether to show your rank as your title or not) I fail to see how it would have any negative effect among players. What I mean by “your current wvw rank” is that it would automatically follow your wvw ranks and you can not select it to show any previous ranks you have gained nor need to update it for every name rank you get. It would also be enough to see the rank title and not the current rank level.

For example: “Silver General”
and not: “Rank 1,203: Silver General”

What do you think of the suggestion?

Yours Silver General,

I like the idea.

Seems like a pretty solid suggestion. I don’t think this will lead to WvW elitism either; only a fool would turn away lower ranked players in the wider WvW war when bodies+coverage > everything else.

Thank you for your replies.

I have hard time to think how it would since it would be optional to select and use the title or not. Secondly it would give some idea of the experience level of the player in the way that you do not need to question if he/she has some siege mastery or knows the basics how siege golems work.

The current system is that we know the ranks of our enemies in wvw as we see them, but we don’t have an idea how high rank our guildies or fellow players on the same side are. I would also rather hang in LA showing my wvw rank than any of the pve “achievement” titles since I’m focused on that part of the game.

+1 for visible www,pvp ranks , why they arent placed around around char picture ? or even there should be option to show it in party bar . But lets forget about it ,game which was supposed to be pvp one is afraid of what pve farmer will say .

We all know wvw rank pass level 1400 when you master everything gives nothing. Let us setup this rank as our title. Then maybe we got some reason to grind this 9000 level of bullish**.

And even if the goal is not to max level, it’s still fun to out level your friends. People who wvw are naturally competitive so why not give us this little thing we can compete each other on?

When it comes to actually making the title that follows your current wvw rank, I don’t think that it’s hard to make. I admit that I don’t know first thing about coding, but showing the information that is already followed by the game doesn’t sound complicated or time taking to be made. Devs please make this happen!

+1
I second this motion.

+1 to this. I would like to have a permanent Scout title.

With the PvE megaservers making it hard to recruit in game for WvW, it would be nice if it also displayed your server on PvE maps, too, something like:

Eredon Terrace Bronze Squire
