Champions in the game will be updated so each will always drop a guaranteed reward box for any player that qualifies for a reward from the boss. This chest will contain things like crafting materials, skill points, unique skins, lodestones, and more. This change will make champions more rewarding, and will make playing in Orr and Southsun Cove (where events can scale up to add champions) more exciting and fruitful for guilds and players joining together in the open world.
Will these new champion reward boxes apply to tower/keep lords? Please say yes!

This is myTrahearne’s story
At least make the rewards scale with player or how upgraded the structure is.. flipping paper towers shouldn’t have the same reward as flipping T3 hills.

My fun laughs at your server pride.

I’d second this if only to avoid tower trading, or just make the Tower Lord an Elite rather than Champion. Its not like she’s actually threatening…
Wow. Way to encourage more stacking of super stacked servers. Way to encourage blobbing in WvW. Unless Anet realizes this and only rewards based on whether how “outnumbered” the opponents are, this Champion thing is only going to make people do more “stacking” as commanders in maps usually ask for. Most commanders in WvW asks to stack so Anet is now encouraging “stacking”. LOL.
So even more encouragement for people to zerg from tower to tower and never defend anything…
Karma training towers is still slower than zerg busting in terms of WXP/XP/Gold/Karma accrual, especially if you are zerg busting in defense of towers/objectives you own and tick even just once on the defenders event (in the time it takes to flip two towers, just by logistics of having to traverse the distance, kill the gate, and then cap the circle, you’ll get two ticks of defenders which is worth a tower + everything you earned defending said tower). The problem will be that defending won’t get you a fancy chest but you still get a lot of bags defending. Just karma training undefended towers will get you all of a single chest with some materials in it… cool?
That said, there probably should be more done to make just karma training a bit less… easy? Let’s go with that word. Scaling the lord is probably the best solution as it gives some appeal to smaller squads.

THIS.
Anet, you’re killing your game. Reward mindless zerging and lack of tactical play more. Time to organize some Tower/Keep trading! Or wait, I don’t even have to do that, your system of rewards encourages it automatically with how WxP works! Hum, way to throw more fuel on to the fire.
I wonder what WvW will look like in six months.
Can’t wait to get all these great rewards! Way to go anet!!!
