Guild Wars 2

I’ve been reading lots of WvW forums lately and it seems the Hardcore WvW players dont like the PvE players…..

Honestly Thats terrible to me, let all the pve players come, if you have 100+ come in for the chests well after 5-10 chests they will see the WvW rank chests arnt worth their time and go back to dragons, but during this time you have much more players.

Some servers needs more players, some do not, But out of that 100 players you are going to recruit some new hardcore WvW players, I am sure of that.

Let them play, its just a game, and everyone can play where they like.

Now onto WvW rank chests.

I think it is a cool idea, it gives the Hardcore players a chance to get things they normally can not get, most WvW only players.. well…. dont do dragons and dont do the Mystic Forge or even dungeons, so thing of the chests as a wayf or Hardcore players to get a Precursor.

If you see how hard precursors are to get for PvE players what makes you think the WvW rank chests are going to be easier? They have a chance yes, but the same chance a PvE player has in a Dungeon chest. And I have seen 1 guild member get a Precursor out of CoF runs before.

With that said, IMO it would be nice for the chests rewards to be better, not better for PvE but WvW, do WvW players really need greens and blue items? Or would badges, blueprints and ways to get ectos better? Maybe a ecto drop it self (on a chance not all the time)

Yes Ecto! Mostly b.c WvW now can get ascended gear and 2 of those cost 50 ectos each.

For my a PvE base that likes a fun day of WvW a few times of week, I can get 30-40 ectos in 1 day very easy, I do the Mega Events and then a few dungeon runs, not just CoF, but TA, SE, Hotw, CoE and somethimes Arah. My Best dungeon run day was getting 1800 dungeon tokens that gave me 60 rares, I just used the Mystic Salv Kit and in turn gave me 57 Ectos.

I am happy that WvW is getting new things every patch and I hope it keeps getting more, b.c it is become much more enjoyable to me and many of the players I know. Tho I still think it is missing something special…. you know that feeling, to get me to commit 3-4 hours daily to it.

With all respect, I wouldn’t want pve players taking slots on any map: if they’d make the rewards better, we’d have a lot of pve’ers grinding guards, players and such to gain ranks and chest, while some wvw veteran who runs dolly, guards towers, orders upgrades and generally helps the server is stuck outside of wvw in queue. I’m fine with rewards chests tbh; I only need money for repair bills, upgrades, and nothing else. I also am not particulary interested in ascended stuff: their bonuses in regards to exotic items are so small that they aren’t worth it to me.

Also, sorry for my eventually bad english, I’m kinda tired and didn’t re-read my post.

I have bad english too, I do understand the slots and we dont want players that arnt working to help the server, and thats what Im saying about the rewards, they arnt made to get more player into wvw but to help wvw players, and that why I would like to see the rewards change, WvW players dont need money or greens/blue items. They need blueprints and if your not top 6 tier servers you need badges of honor.

The ectos are just nice so WvW players can get Ascended Accessories, having a 1/20 chance for one will get most hardcore wvw players 40 ectos in months time, witch is a good time frame to get ascended accessories. Not for None wvw players to just farm for.

What Pve player will want to spend 10+ hours just to get 1 or 2 ectos? None, they can do cof for 10 hours and get 100 ectos easy.

When I play WvW I dont want PvE rewards, I want things to help me out for WvW.

Greens for days. I understand you can ‘karma-train’ for chests I’d just like to be even close to the same level that PvE’ers can pumped out rares.

Yesterday:
WvW – 3 hours – 6 chests (3 levels) – 6 greens + 17s each chest
SouthSun Farming – 3 hours – 6 exotics – 22 rares, filled up inventory 2.5 times with greens

Kitten clogging my bags with rares need space for my excess badges nothing needs to change
