Guild Wars 2

The World vs. World Experience Booster is now available in the Gem Store in the Booster category for 150 gems. This consumable grants 50% more WvW experience for one hour.

I am not really a fan, personally. I realize I don’t have to buy it, but with the slight to large power creep each of the skills adds, there’s definitely a feeling of being left out for not having the skills trained up.

Called it ages ago…

This is plain ridcolous..

Coming in three months: wvw rank points reset, only 800 gems!

Seriously, Anet?

So kittening stupid.

Who cares? Zerglings already have an advantage over others. Higher tiered servers already have an advantage over lower tiered servers.

The concept of WXP not being fair is nothing new.

So don’t buy it? The gamers who have the most time to log in and play will always have an advantage over the casuals, with or without boosters.

You need at least lvl230 to be on par with everyone else stat-wise in WvW. That wouldn’t be a problem if the levels were account based. But adding this grind, then selling boosters, it’s abusing. ANet is doing one misstep after the next.

I have yet to see the new values of WxP base gains and with outnumbered buff ( quite popular over here) but for those wondering why WxP is not account bound…

…this might be the reason most likely.

True but casual players not using boosters will most likely “fall behind” even more from those “hardcore” players using boosters, making boosters almost a must to “keep” the previous commitment gap advantage.

But i have to say, i’m not that surprised with this by looking back at the game’s progress through the year. This starts to resemble Aion too much… what’s next ? Laurel boosters/bundles in shop ?

Will there be WxP boosters given for past achievement chests and future achievement chests? And When will WxP be added onto Acct as Perm like XP and Karma Anet???

Anet might be under the impression that wexp doesn’t give you strong advantages in WvW. This is the first time I’ve ever wanted to refer to WvW as pay to win.
