Guild Wars 2

1) Repair costs per death in WvW is just plain out of hand. Yes, I know we should strive to stay alive, but when a couple dozen people decide it’s your time to go, then you’re gone usually. We simply don’t make enough coin to warrant defending the majority of the time.

My “Fix”: If killed by another player or Siege Equipment then you do not take damage to your armor and therefore do not incur a repair fee. If you get killed my a NPC mob or the Envrionment in General, then it’s business as usual and you get to pay a repair bill.

2) Loot Bags while an interesting concept are just not practical. Yes, I know in beta it was said you couldn’t just put loot into our bag, but I think the time is now that you work harder at making that very thing happen. WvW is just too fast paced for us to be able to just loot corpses and bags while trying to continue transitions within the WvW world.

My “Fix”: Make it a Gem Shop perk if you have to. I know that many people would love to avoid in PvE and WvW having to loot corpses/bags. Sell a Vanity Pet, item to imbue a Vanity Pet, or something similar that has the ability to loot for you while it is active. Games have had these types of additions for years and if titles like Dungeon Runners, Aion, Flyff, and Eden Eternal to name a few can do this, then I fully have faith that a company with your finances and backing can handle it as well.

ever see people naked after being killed in WvW ?

1) My fix: start doing actual WvW. I’m making gold-two per day just by taking and defending keeps/towers/camps.

2) My fix: enable “auto-loot” and just press F whatever you see loot bags. The only ones who might have a problem with looting it is glass cannons thieves, but no one cares about glass cannons thieves anyway.

I don’t even….

1) Repair cost is a must, it is one of the gold sink of the game. Yes, it is harsh sometimes, especially when you’re 80 and running exotics, but its your job to survive hence if you made a glass cannon, there is a risk for it. Beside, I made 2-3g off WvW daily. Period.

2) Vanity pet? We have tons of issue with rendering a.k.a invisible foes, with those pet in sight it’ll just make it worst.

As Halo said, you are playing WvW wrong.

Yeah I don’t buy Buzzcrave’s “It’s your job to survive” nonsense. I think I can speak for most that, that’s always the goal but when you get zerged (not complaining about it but it does happen) having to pay crazy repair costs are a bit much.

Personally I think that there should be no repair costs in WvW. There’s just no need for it in the game mode.

1. current repair cost is fine by me
2. they could make loot distribution in WvW same as daily/monthly reward, with a chest loot., but those chest could be lot smaller ones in case you got too many to prevent screen flooding, just click on the screen and loot it?

Repair cost is not much coin sink as just punishment for bad play. WvW is all about team and team work. It’s not your typical PvP. Play by logic of war and repair cost won’t hurt you much.

How often are you dying in wvw? I played two hours of wvw before posting here and I died three times.. that is a drop in the ocean when you are constantly getting rewards and bags for doing pretty much anything
