And what point would that be, Funk, other than to be non-constructive?
Look instead at the function of content within each game mode, as I am. What purpose do Toxics in WvW serve? I can argue that arrow carts are not in PvE because they serve no purpose there. Neither are keeps, supply dolyaks, etc. The only time you find siege in PvE is for a personal story where it serves as part of the narrative or as part of a dynamic event where, again, it serves as part of the event narrative. And there’s a PvP map where siege exists because it also serves a purpose in that map.
On the other hand, what purpose do Toxics in WvW serve? All they do is pull PvE-ers into WvW who have little interest in WvW beyond that. So why not put Toxics in tPvP to pull more PvE-ers into tPvP? /sarcasm Same logic, no?

Lets spread the wealth! tPvP will now have Toxics and PvE will be PvP where guests can fight against the server they guest to. That would be awesome lol

“what purpose do Toxics in WvW serve?”
allowing WvW-focused players to get some of the achievements, drops and rewards from the LS, that’s the purpose it serves.
Please, don’t fool yourself into thinking real wvwers actually care about pve achievements. If I want to go do pve I will do it in a bloody pve map. I come to wvw to wvw, not to kill some over sized flower.
Get this pve out of my wvw
It is not what you do, but how and why you do it that counts.
Anet, please have the toxic event on tPvP and sPvP as well if you place that toxic event on WvW.
WvW has enough annoying PvE stuffs that can cause players to be in combat.
We don’t want more of them, especially the ones with unpredicted spawn time like these toxic creatures, flowers, and so on….

Yes its mine, I own you all. <3
It is not what you do, but how and why you do it that counts.
As I said in another post, it is so people who just want to WvW can get the meta done for the living world. The meta does reward something that is useful in your home instance.
So, Toxics in WvW isn’t a bad thing for the month. Just deal with it, they will be gone soon enough.
On a more constructive note and to counter your obviously phalic? falicit? flawed point, that garbage spawns all over the map and even in some important choke points in EB. WvW much?
This belies the fact that fundamentally, many who consider themselves to be primarily wvw players do not appreciate pve in wvw. This has been the impression I have developed after speaking with other people who classify themselves as such anyway.
The general consensus among any dedicated wvwer is that toxics in WvW is a bad bad bad idea. If you don’t believe me, go to any map with players in it and ask that in map chat.
The darn mobs spawn all over the place, not just in the far corners as one might expect. An example is the EB ogres/dredge tunnels, which act as very important choke points when you want to make a push/defend against a push against another server’s corner of EB. They get in the way, do annoying attacks, and are generally a pain in the a**hole. I literally have not seen any one bother to do the event where you destroy the plant thing with siege.
I am starting to think that WvW players cry too much. Who cares about the toxics. Kill them or don’t.
I know they kill Dolyaks. I know they can kill sentries. I have seen them even attack a keep. Who cares. They aren’t legendary, and are as easy, if not easier, to kill than a sentry.
This is just a bunch of cry babies, crying again, because all they want to do is cry about anything anet does to WvW.
If I was anet, I wouldn’t even try to work on WvW with all the cry babies that post on the forum.
Why can’t we have serious discussions on the forums, that do not involve crying over something?
Oh Andrew, but this is why Anet should put Toxics in tPvP so that those players can cry about it. And Anet should also put PvP in PvE so that those players can cry too when we go hunting for their bags in the Harathi Hinterlands.
Yea, right, like that would happen… But PvE in WvW is ok, right, right?

Chaba, I swear this Andrew guy is just a Funk alt. Such bad information and missing the point completely.
Not missing the point at all. WvW from the beginning was a hybrid between PvE and PvP. I don’t have any bad information, I just don’t cry about everything in WvW like everyone else on this forum.

As usual trash pve players that will never understand WVW……… casuals these days……

these complaints are especially funny given how you have to go out of your way to even get to the toxic elements in WvW.
in fact, the ONLY way you’d encounter this content is if you were going to the “PVE” corners in the first place.
This proves that you haven’t done any WvW. Do you even know what it stands for or where it is actually located. I’m sorry Toxic crap around sentry cap points, killing yaks and attacking merc camps is “PVE corners”?

You both are right.
There are those big toxic plants in corners (visible on map) but there are also toxic creatures everywhere.
Toxics already fight with yaks and sentries. They should start attacking NPC guards at supply camps like ogres, dredge, hyleks, and formerly the quaggans do. They should also spawn in the lord rooms at towers and keeps too. Then there will no longer be any need for actual players in WvW. Rejoice! /sarcasm

Actually, I spend the majority of my time in WvW. I just don’t cry over everything like you guys do.
The guild I am is mainly a WvW guild, and they don’t cry over these toxics.
I guess you guys must not have enough skill to kill them. Or are they slowing your karma train down?

Nope, we karma train just like the rest. But sometimes, we park the train and defend. Sometimes, we just seek out fights to train some bags, cause who really cares about karma sometimes?
But, none of that matters in respect to this topic. We just don’t care about toxics. Kill them, skip them, whatever. They don’t bother a lot of us.

Toxics, btw, do not pull PvE players into WvW. The WvW achievements do, but not toxics. There are no Living Story achievements, that are part of the Tower of Nightmares stuff, that requires you to go to WvW to achieve them.
PvE players will just do that stuff in Tyria, not the mists.
And, btw, WvW is not only your game mode. PvE players can come in and play when they want to, same as with tPvP, and sPvP. Everyone bought this game, and can play it how they want to.
So many people in WvW that believe they are leet, and special.
