Guild Wars 2

[X-post from game suggestions]

As a WvW and PvP player, I notice that the achievement balance is totally screwed up in this game. For example 250,000 Total Kills in WvW Ultimate Dominator (almost 800 hours) gives a total of almost 50 achievement points when a living story 10 hour content give the same amount of points? are you freaking kidding me??? same goes for PvP achievement points…As a player who focuses on end game WvW and PvP this is ridiculous. Basically a PvE player can run some dungeon and frac or LS and get a lot more achievement points than WvW players.
Not really sure what ANet is thinking when they come up with these points but there is absolutely no balance between them….
For example, A WvW Ultimate Dominator title deserves at least 500 achievement points and not less.
This game is about guild wars where the guilds go to war to protect their home land (server) but unfortunately Anet is completely ignoring the obvious. Just read your game title again and realize what is all about.

Heres a link to the most recent time this topic was brought up. This is a common subject and Anet has posted confirming these achievements are being looked into. They agree with the players on this but adjusting them has proven more difficult then just swapping some numbers.

There is the same problem with tpvp spvp.

Thanks for pointing this out. However I don’t see any confirmation that ANet is looking into the issue.

I just wants point out the title of the game (Guild Wars) has nothing to do with servers or actual guilds. It’s a series of 3 wars in Tyrian history in which the 3 human kingdoms (Kryta, Asclalon, and Orr) guilds went to war with the guilds of the other human kingdoms.

1. Achievments are in no way game breaking when they dont work correctly or are not balanced well
2. Fixing achievements wont promote players to buy more things from the gem shop.

Because of these 2 things, anything dealing with WvW achievements will be very very very very very LOW on Anets priority list. Which means as long as they are working on the following….

1. WvW Ranks
2. Jumping Puzzles.
3. Living Story
4. The next limited time gemshop offer
5. Nerfing the FOTM class
6. Game breaking bugs

… we should not expect to see any work being done on WvW achievements

Thats just how companies work in the real world. Prioritize and persue.
