Guild Wars 2

My guild transferred to Isle of Janthir from Henge of Denravi this past Thursday. When I transferred I noticed that I wasn’t getting any of the stat bonuses from my world’s score (Artisan, Energetic, Scavenger, Robust, etc.). I figured it was just because I transferred in the middle of a match and I would get the bonuses during this week’s match.

It’s now the third day of the match, and I am still not getting any of these stat bonuses. I can tell because my because my base HP has not gone up when it should have a +4% from the Robust bonus. I asked my guild and nobody else is getting the bonuses either.

Is this a known bug?

Known bug, anet will ignore this or tell you to wait 2 weeks for bonuses to kick-in. still does not work after 2 weeks. Keep this bumped.

I only noticed this the other day, moved a month ago.

Not feeling terribly sorry for you.

I’m pretty sure I read somewhere that it is intended, to discourage transfers, you won’t get bonuses for the current match and the next, after that it should work as normally.

Well in my case I moved from full, high ranked server, to low population 2nd from bottom. There has been 4 matchups since then, still no bonuses.

I’ll check in next week to see if I’m getting any bonuses by then.

This is deliberate. You will not benefit from any of the WvW bonuses for the first two weeks after you transfer.

It is meant to discourage server hopping for getting gather node bonuses.

It’s also probably meant to run in conjuction with the original plan of banning you from playing in any WvW match for 2 weeks after you server transfer (which hasn’t been implemented yet).

I’ll see if I can find the post from AN about it.

Edit: Here you go – https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Bugged-World-Bonuses/first#post418001

If you have been on the server for more than two weekly rounds of WvW, you may be encountering a bug and you should post in the forum above so the devs can do something about it.

I feel sorry for him but for a reason other than not getting his bonuses, I feel sorry for him for the major dissapointment that will be coming his way in the upcoming next few weeks where he will once again not be getting his buffs..

I cannot wait for the penalty for transfering. 120 hour lockout of WvW | 120 hour transfer lockout etc.

Will eliminate a lot of the WvW issues.

And it would irritate a lot of childish players who have no honor anyway.

Well, it’s been 3 weeks and still not getting bonuses. Must be bugged then

or intented, Baaaaandwagon cough

Are you guys awared that those bonuses apply only while inside of WvW map, right? They does not apply in Tyria.

the bonuses from score affect everything but spvp bro.

It allways affected me only when inside of WvW map, so i thought its intended to work this way.

do you mean the orbs?

wvw sore board bonus is stuff like + crit gathering chance and + exp and + crafting crit chance.

Yes i mean WvW bonuses not Orbs, ofc….All those crit gathering, crit crafting, etc allways only affected me in WvW

So you’re saying every person who transfers servers is automatically a bandwagoner and should be punished?

I remember the bonuses working everywhere in the PvE world, even dungeons.

I have never gotten these bonus’s. Been on the same server for two months.

Lasted 2 weeks for me, worked fine after that.

My friend has never gotten wvwvw bonuses. He hasn’t moved servers.

There’s more to the issue than just transferring.

He found out only when he noticed me getting multiple harvests of resources and he NEVER does.
