In WvW loot bag contents are generated from various loot tables, including what you get when you kill an enemy world player. Why not have a 5% chance of getting a copy of something in their inventory? If they have no inventory you get a random rare instead. Or a 1% chance of getting a copy of a piece of gear (armor/weapon/trinket)? I’m not suggesting we take an item, just get a copy of it.

I think this might make the loot feel more rewarding, especially for those long fights over a keep or SMC.

Ok. I will then buy a precursor, empty out my inventory and then loot at the end of fights only.

Loot is fine. If you don’t think loot is fine, kill more things. If you can’t kill more things, pve.

Actually, loot isnt fine. It’s not diverse enough!

How about remove most of the crap loot and up the rare or better loot.

This game suffers from horrible trash loot. Most of what we do get is a chore to deal with. A good loot system should consistently drop items a player would use.

id be okay with upping the loot tables.
Its absolutly crazy for any Anet dev to think its balanced and in line with PVE out here in WvW.

10 hours of WvW probably net you 5 -10 gold if your lucky
10 hours in PvE probably net you 25-50 gold thats not even dedicated Dungeon or fractal runs which get you even more.

Unless the hero weapons at the end of the season are sellable (not likely) there is not comparison

Please get your priorities straight Anet.
Stat increase = gear grind.
Gear grind = no money from me ever again.

most of the time I get white helmets and spikes from loot… no reward at all.

WvW is not about loot. PvE is that way.

WvW is about fights. If they do something silly like only droping rares or more then average loot we would see an influx of loot farmers. I do not like the idea of losing a T3 structure because people would rather farm then play.

I think a similar suggestion has been brought up before, and one possible problem…

too easily exploitable to dupe precursors and other high price items.

I agree completely. If WvW had better loot we’d get more fair-weathers only in it for farming. It’s bad enough we have achiev hunters in there filling up Q space while we lose our territory because our dedicated scouts and/or roamers aren’t there to make call outs.

We need more cloth armor pieces to salvage.

Currently, cloth is sold for so much because of Bolt of Damask.

Adding reward tracks for WvW like were just added for SPVP would be nice.
