There needs to be something more to help WvW groupings of 6 -15 players. 100 gold for commander is too much and inappropriate. We don’t want to command the masses just some assistance in knowing where the other 5 person group is. Right now it’s Zerg guild/group of over 60 players to afford and appropriately use the commander or 5 people. Just give us something . Right now it’s mandatory voice comm usage with constantly having to give location updates at best.

Ideas for a solution:

20 person max commander lite system. 10 gold for book. Can keep private. Only map icon for squad members.

Guild waypoints/markets shows to all guild members in WvW map.

i agree. it’s really difficult to coordinate when we are split up into 2 or more groups. plus, while we are striving for a commander as it is currently the only option available, it’s going to suck having tons of people follow you around when you want to do small gang work.

there should be some mechanic for groups of 10-20.

We definitely need an option between “Group of 5 doods” and “Server Army”.

My guildies at 1st thought that commander is something like that (20 man group that can be closed) and they were like “That sucks, but lets gather 100g, what can you do?”
But when i broke them the news that there is no warbang function in this game everyone was like “WTF? How is it possible that game like this doesnt have it???”

I would be happy with like a warband of 10 (pretty much 2 groups)

yes, bump…this needs to happen. we had 4 squads of 5 the other night, its just not practical nor helpful to have to say “group 1 to X” “group 2” etc

An absolutely perfect idea and it is incredible the game has neglected the basic guild functions like this. At the moment with the rather limited functionality the commander book just isn’t worth the investment

We typically run around 15 people which would be perfect for a system like this.. at the moment it is just relying on vent

100% agree.

Coordinating players and guilds in multiple groups should be easy… right now its nonexistent.

Lots of great ideas to improve social and grouping mechanics in the game. Hopefully we can make arenanet understand that proper tools to group and coordinate are important for many guilds and players.
