WvW needs more. Armour,Badges,Titles,Ranks.
WvW is definitely the red headed step child in terms of variety of both skins and stat assortments. Even though I pretty much only do WvW anymore, had to go into PVE to get the armor stats and looks I wanted. Now with ascended out in PVE, WvW is left even further behind, with only a promise but no idea when we’ll catch up.
As Anet described designing WvW to appeal to a wide casual base, its negligent to not realize that those players especially want these kind of things. That doesn’t mean gear treadmill in a power sense, but certainly cosmetic upgrades, or titles w/e, to progress and show advancement or achievement.
For fear of them mucking up the beautiful thing that is Wv3 I would rather have them change nothing outside of culling, bugs, and exploitable terrain.
They start adding gear then stats are on it and it becomes a grind fest. Doesn’t everyone just enjoy actually PLAYING the game? I love playing wvw, not farming or grinding for wvw.
Cosmetics are kind of a cool idea but once you open that gate of WvW gear I’m too afraid of what it might turn into.
Just my 2 cents

I’d love WvW only gear. I want to load into a borderland, throw on my “battle armor”, feel like a gladiator getting ready for battle! Purely cosmetic of course. I agree with the terms of the major stuff (game breaking) needs to be fixed first, but I think that in the Feb patch they should at least add other stuff to work towards than “omg #1 server” and 250,000 kills. Guild recognition, commander commendations, etc are items that will prolong the average persons experience in Wv3.
My fun laughs at your server pride.

For one thing im not a child and dont apprechiate getting that reply most probably older than you “my child”. I am not saying we need a grind im saying we need somthing to work towards.
He’s not calling you a child, he’s calling WvW “the red headed step child”, it’s an expression, meaning WvW pretty much gets ignored/treated badly by ANet
He’s agreeing that WvW needs more
