Did you really list almost 20k kills in WvW since release at a positive stat?

edit: almost?

Depends on the tier. Lower tiers don’t get the same kill opportunities as higher tier servers. Also the play style matters a lot. I mostly skirmish/roam in a mid tier server so my “almost” 60k kills is very high for where I am at and the style of fighting I do. However 60k kills on a T1 or T2 zerging isn’t that many.

aye, playstyle matters a lot. 1 year and 1 month of WvW – 10000 kills. 70% of my time is spend scouting or solo roaming. 15% spent zerging, 10% is PvE/Dungeons, 5% spent harrassing warriors who die to silly things.

Don’t you see, this whole trolling, slow-rolling, drip-dripping rollout is entirely and exactly timed to coincide with ESO early access opening. That by the way is at 7 a.m. ET on March 28. Regular access ESO launches on 4/4, the same day ast the last scheduled GW2 blog post reveal. Coincidence? Yeah, right…

Unfortunately, by the 28th it will be too late. The time to commit for early access is now. By 7am ET on March 28 decisions WILL ALREADY BE MADE.

I know a lot… A LOT of people made their decision to switch from WvW to AvA this past weekend — and the lag fest, disconnects, and skill nullification was a huge factor. There was a huge amount of chat about it in the channels, forums, and mail.

The train wreck that ANet calls risk management doesn’t seem to realize that their timing ends up cementing the exodus. Major releases always bring with them bugs and exploits. Simultaneously starting Season 2 and releasing substantial changes to the meta is monumentally stupid.

Furthermore, many might only have dabbled with ESO. Now there is a real possibility that any that consider returning may be facing a catastrophic Season 2 Starter. Why return to a disaster (worse than was left behind)?

I honestly don’t know which train I’ll end up on or if I will stand near the train tracks and watch… <sound collision>

I really do not understand the opposition to this idea from the Dev Team. It pigeonholes people into one character, which doesn’t even help their bottom line.

Yup I still can’t play alts in WvW, because it feels like a waste since I could be gathering WXP on main. GW2 feels like a 1 character – 1 class game to me No wonder I keep getting bored and leave for 6+ months at a time.

Not entirely sure if someone may have already posted this, as I sure did not take the time to read through 11-pages worth of mostly-meaningless-posts (not to be harsh, just being honest), but, if you look at the upcoming blog posts for the April 15, 2014 Feature Pack, one of the two announcements to come on the 27th of March is vaguely titled “Account-Bound.” Seems like the perfect time to throw in account-bound wxp….

Granted, I could be wrong and it may be something totally unrelated, but wxp just seems too likely, and just too good of a time, for it to be anything else. After all, it was SUPPOSED to be released with EOTM…. so how much longer could it really be before it is finally released, if they had originally thought it to be ready way back then.

Yes, been mentionned, along with Legendary, dies, character stuff (armor/trinkets), commander tag… anything actually not account bound can go there…

Now, dies and skins are pretty much ruled out, but doesn’t mean the object is WxP…

Simple reply. They can care less about ABWXP.

The message referring the 2nd league was the same they used for league 1. The players of WWW don’t have commercial value, so we don’t deserve any respect.

Many players had spend gold and time, improving new chars for the league, and ended like me, spending all badges and laurels to boast a little bit their chars with more WXP.

I bet they will do something along the lines (numbers pulled out of thin air):

Char 1: rank 40, 100,000,000 wxp
Char 2: rank 200, 300,000,000 wxp
Char 3: rank 5, 1000 wxp

ACC-wxp patch hits

Char 1: gets rank 40 + [rank coresponding to (300,000,000 wxp + 1000 wxp)]
Char 2: gets rank 200 + [rank coresponding to (100,000,000 wxp + 1000 wxp)]
Char 3: gets rank 5 + [rank coresponding to (100,000,000 wxp + 300,000,000 wxp)]

After that you get to customize every char with it’s own pool of wvw rank points.

Then, every WXP any char gets, is put in every char’s wxp pool that you have.

One thing they may go for is to make “gifted” wxp less, as in char that got the wxp gets 100%, the other chars get a % of it, based on the wvw rank difference between them. So a rank 5 will give 5/200 % of it’s received wvw xp to the rank 200, and of course, a rank 200 will “gift” only 5/200 % of it’s received wvw to the rank 5 dude.

And this means no rank points reset needed.

I am hoping for wxp, but if it is, why didnt we get it before season 2…or are they gonna have an 11th hour patch before tomorrow. Btw, why would wvw, which is a minor part of the overall game, be used as leverage against ESO? If anything, the entire 4-15 patch shouldve been released already to battle ESO.

Minor? You’re joking right?

WvW is the endgame here. Sad as it is, WvW is the glue holding people here. Once something better comes out…

sPvP died ages ago and the only thing else is mindless repetitive rounds of bosses, dungeons and fractals. At least with WvW you’re playing against real people and they are not predictable. Everything else is AI, repeatable, and predictable.

My posts are facts as I know them, or my own opinion, and do not represent any guild.

Yes, minor. When was the last WvW update? Half a year ago, when we lost the lake and gained some sPvP ruin-capping nonsense. Obviously it’s minor or anet would update it more frequently to keep people playing, so they buy gems with cash…you know, the only way anet makes money off GW2.

Except data mining has revealed that it is.

Data mining have often revealed stuffs months before release, and even revealed stuff that wasn’t released at all.

Just because parts of it is in the code doesn’t mean it is ready.

And if it was ready back when it was first found (several months ago btw) why haven’t they released it yet?

There are account-bound mechanics in place for so many currencies. Several of them had been converted from char-bound to account-bound, too. Not to mention the fact that Fractal progression was made account-bound, too.

I just think that the single intern they have doing all of the WvW development is just having trouble finding the time to do WEXP properly. Has all those new masteries to test, instead.

Nope, seeing as the Feature Patch is coming in the middle of the Season and it includes some major professions changes I would say it is fully possible that they will release it during the season if ready.

Middle of the season? 2 weeks after start and 7 weeks until season 2 ends. Thats not middle. Thats right after PvE players will have all achivements completed.

I should have been clearer: “During the ongoing season”.
Better?

The point still remains that it will be released during the season, and thus the comment about not “making major changes to WvW during season” invalid for this season.
