Guild Wars 2

Why is it that when a guild claims a keep, has all the buffs for that keep, then pushes on and takes another keep, that the original keep loses the banner and buffs that said guild earned in taking it?

If my guild goes and works hard and puts in the effort to take a keep, and spends their own money to upgrade everything, and gets it all set up to be on the defensive, then we can no longer claim any other keep in the land or else we forfeit what we initially claimed. This is rediculous. If I apply my guilds buffs, it should work for ANY area that our guild claims during that 12 hour period.

I’m pretty sure that’s so that smaller guilds have a chance at whatever benefit there is in hoisting their banner over a tower instead of having larger guilds hog them all. Why do you need to claim more than one? Color me extremely unsympathetic to your rant.

I can see the trolling issue with this immediately. Guild goes around claiming all keeps with no buffs.

I’ll humor you Cactus….Say I control the Garrison, I spend the money for all the upgrades, I apply all the buffs to keep it safe. We then move south and take over one of the keeps. I choose to claim it because I have full buffs. Now the Garrison becomes vulnerable because I am now helping to protect this keep because we have full buffs.

If my guild works hard to take something, we fortify it and protect it. When it’s safe and upgraded we move on to another area. Why is it our banner should come down when we take ANOTHER keep? It’s a matter of representation for our guild.

Because this is WorldVsWorld, not GuildVsWorld. You have to make choises what locations you claim. Would be kind of a wierd to be able to claim every location on the map.

I agree that it would be nice if guild could claim a keep/tower and a supply camp, but nothing more as it would take out some of the good communication out of server. Its a team game after all, dont try to hog all for yourself.

Go humor yourself. Why do you need to claim the second objective? Is yours the only guild on your server with buffs? Get over yourself.
