Guild Wars 2

How does Anet perceive WvW?

When it comes to skill balances etc. is it classed as pve or is it classed as pvp?

It’s classed as PvE. There’s PvP elements but ANet seems intent on removing them

The thing that disturb me now is AOE attacks have no limit what so ever were it can hit and then Siege they set limit on so aoe attacks can hit were ever you place a AC, Cat, Treb, Balista. So simple remove Towers, keeps they have no purpose now.

Pretty sure they don’t categorize things like that. I sort of feel like we on the forums like to categorize things like that so that we can claim we’re in the wrong category and why won’t anyone understand what a special snowflake we are?

WvW is a game mode that is player versus player but where there are either 2 or 3 sides in battle with any one side scaling from 1 to a ton. With enough people, the servers lag and people can’t activate more than their autoattack. The servers also can’t handle more than 5 DPS calculations per player so while there can be near 200 players in an engagement, any one of them can only interact with 5 allies and 5 bad guys. There are 4.5 maps, the matches are 24 hours for 7 days. People can move from team to team as often as they like. Balance accordingly.

Yet that is impossible to rework, since would put server on heavy load plus lag the game.
