Does anyone else feel the rewards from WvW (not the tournament, the ongoing weekly rotation bags, chests, etc.) are satisfying?

Personally I find it very unsatisfying. If you do EotM you get a lot more of those rewards, but even those for me seem unsatisfying.

Right now, after the tournament, WvW is rather flat, at least on my server and compared to during the tournament. Sure some of that is burn out, but much of it is the lackluster rewards for WvW.

What can be done to improve the WvW rewards? Does WvW need something similar to the PvP track reward system?

Hey dude you are walking into a wall.

smack..Wut?…smack…smack…

Not in the least.

Why don’t we unlock finishers depending on our WvW rank? Is there much skill involved in unlockin the PvP finishers? They used to be nothing more than a grind just like grinding Platninum invader.

Why can’t we buy experience tombs and skill points with Badges? These are very regular rewards in PvP.

Why can’t we exchange badges for X PvE dungeon tokens? PvP players are now able to unlock PvE skins for a few hours of effort. I wonder how many months of WvW grinding it would take a player to purchase a full suit of gear even if they did allow it.

Why aren’t more stat sets available on the vendors for badges?

Why can’t we buy laurels with badges?

PvP players get a unique skin for doing nothing but grinding. WvW players get skins available by the time you’re level 20? Why not allow players to purchase the same mundane PvP set with badges?

I mean these a common sense things that should require little/no effort to introduce. And how long has the lack of adequate rewards been discussed? How long has this game been out again?

One of the most common requests I’ve seen for WvW is unique items and armor. Many of the champions in PvE drop unique loot, I would love to see some unique items drop in WvW. These items could always be sold on the trade post, giving PvE players a way to obtain them, but I think having maybe several weapons drop in WvW only would be fun.

You could even add a collection achievement to it!

Ah….for those who propose using WvW tokens to get things all this would do is bulk up EotM populations, not help the actual WvW. There needs to be a seperate reward setup to counter the mindless karma train that is all that EotM is.

I am on a T1 server, perhaps it is simply my perspective.

Or they could just increase badge rewards in WvW. Like grant 50 for taking a tower, 100 for taking a keep, 200 for taking a garrison, and 500 for taking smc. That’ll get people interested!
