Guild Wars 2

Your server’s performance on PPT has influence on the world bonusses we get, like bonus karma, bonus gold, chances on better mining, more HP etc. And they are shared with anyone on your server

Honestly, it would make more sense that those who activily participate in WvW deserve better bonusses compared to those who never go into WvW and thus not contribute to these world bonusses.

My idea would be to make your own world rank a huge factor in how much bonus you actually get. The more world rank you have the more you benefit from these bonusses. This would 1) Reward us WvW player more which is more motivating, and 2) maybe it’s going to motivate the non WvW player to start playing in WvW.

Im down with that.

+1, could just be a general multiplier called “participation bonus” with range from 0 (never played) to 1 (actively played, based on how many ranks have been gained in the current matchup) but the Power of the Mist is a really low buff, to actually motivate people the buff should be higher. And if that is the case, many dedicated PvErs will cry for it.

So: it won’t happen.

I see where you’re coming from, but, with the ranking system as it is, I think it would still put even more emphasis on attack, end even less on defense… People who spend hours a day scouting a structure gain no ranks, but allow for the serve to get points. Even with many commanders trying to encourage scout rotation, it still ends up that always the same persons do it, while the karma trainers have way way way more ranks, without necessarily having done much for the server (eg. love how my bus melts by half when I say we go defend an upgraded structure, and grow back to full capacity when we are back to attacking structures)…

Excellent idea!

After all why shouldn’t we get a little something extra for all the hard work we do when the PvE’ers who do no WvW whatsoever can enjoy the same bonuses for free?
