Any Update Anet? even just tell us we can’t we made a design decision atleast is being honest.
Months of 0 communication, and saying Dev are listening is not enough, we need Dev to speak, right now WvW team is 0.
The moment a decent competitor come out for RvR, WvW will be dead.
Guild Leader
Need anwser the feedback is pretty straight forward, Anet u can even say, we’re thinking about it will let you know in few days is fine that, but we need to know that we’re atleast being listen to it, even if you don’t agree with us the player base

@Reborn Well one thing at the time, Obsidian map it’s enough to get good enough gvg right now sure a new system would be nice, more ability for guilds, to recruit and train people it’s all awesome but right now we’re looking for the bare minium function to play gvg with more than the guild in the same matchup, if we could play gvg with all the other server, the step forward it’s gigantic!
Anyways up, not going to leave it rest, Uping everyday until i stop playing!
Guild Leader
@Krisi hey for Dawn was mostly we’re not running a setup of 2 d/d ele, we run 1 and we already have it, that’s the reason.
For Top d/d Ele, probablye Lord Asura from LaG it’s the best but not sure i know that he’s very strong and was playing D/D in pvp a lot even before the buff of the recent patch
Btw which guild u went? if there is an upcoming gvg guild i would like to know because i get application i can’t accept because we’re full often and i can send them some of the people apply to us
Guild Leader
(edited by Amelia Knox.9362)
Yes, i’ll keep this thread up until the actually close it or remove me from the forum, or we get an anwser or stuff happens to improve the situation.
I repeat again, the Fix it’s techinicaly not hard, without much need for Dev Time, it will improve ten fold the current Gvg status!
Guild Leader
Also to apply to Dius if you don’t put EXTREME HIGH LEVEL OF Roleplaying it’s just impossibile to get in! Azradel Rp level so high! BEST RP EU hands down
Guild Leader
I think you might also have apply to us as well in DAWN, btw the reason why you might find difficult to join already it’s the role you’re asking to play D/D ele in the current EU meta gets used 1 or 2 max in the roster, usually 1 so the space it’s extremly little.
Also it’s played in the focus party, and usually only the most constant people of the guild player there because if you miss 1 of the focus party you might easly lose a gvg or a fight for that reason atleast on the FP vs FP situation.
So the role you’re asking it’s very hard to fill, and takeing somebody with low experience it’s extremly Risky for a guild, in dawn we took people with little experience and it paid off in the long run, and had to remove so many people because they weren’t improving and from all guilds problably we’re the one putting more time into people training.
For your question, if you’re still in Gandara i would try Lol or Val as well yes aragorn it’s not there anymore but it’s a still a good spot to grow, if you want to go really really serious in gvg, with the amount of experience you have nobody it’s going to take the chance, because it’s simply to risky, not because they know you’re not going to make it just because the possibility for them to waste time it’s pretty big.
Gandara right now lacks a bit a new guild with a strong commander, if somebody it’s looking for an upcoming gvg guilds because that’s what it the best place for you, i would say play Pvp consistaly everyday, learn the class to the full while getting experience in a WvW guild then try to switch to something more serious if the guild u chose doesn’t progress in the direction you would like.
Guild Leader
@Chaba Power creep it’s definitaly a problem but right now we don’t have the right tools to even play enough to bother with that.
Waiting for an anwser, to the idea, i know you guys read it and you will comment when you’re ready so no problem, we will be here
Guild Leader
Good ideas, maybe someone will pay attention.
Because I’m not fickle and think something will be acted upon because of this thread, I will make a suggestion …
Guilds that play for fights EU-wide organise certain dates of EoTM raiding (My suggestion is once or twice a week). Guilds you want to fight, you get on the same overflow as them. Although its a pain in the kitten , it’s 10x better than running around doing nothing for the boring match-ups.
In my eyes its the only potential solution to the problem of this game loosing guilds and players at the rate it is atm. About time the guilds that wish to continue on this game, take matters into their own hands.
I’m sure Sam and a few other guild leaders will help us organise this so it might be implemented pretty soon.
I’ll start speaking with the rest of Guild leader of all Fighting guild i can, trying to refine the details to make sure that’s it’s douable on consistent basis and there is good communication bewteen guild to organize fights, more news probably by saturday or next week
Guild Leader
Well got a plan as well if nothing change to improve the current situation as well, with just player effort
Guild Leader
You are about a year+ too late, many GvG ideas have been mentioned in the forums before and Anet doesn’t want to do them. /enoughsaid
Many Gvg idea weren’t douable without major Dev time investement, the short term solution would requide little time to make that’s why i think it’s viable
Guild Leader
And you don’t experience the same lag when you’re on a WvW map at full capacity?
The Spvp server and WvW server are different, i’m pretty sure that every custom arena has specific resourse limit while WvW server mostly don’t have it so they run till max and then start lagging, or they could probably run on multiple server with load balacing but yeah i got no clue about their server backend, i’m sure they are 2 types of server or different limit for both server, example 1 server could run 20 custom arena
Guild Leader
@Sinbold The custom arena are limited to 10v10 people and many times when a 10v10 is done there is lag in the fight
Guild Leader
@Xilllix well i’m hopeing for answer and a change, that change would mean a lot to the all gvg community without much Time spent for Anet because the system it’s already used for other maps and Eotm and will requide little testing and only mostly a Design choice more than everything, i think as well the problems for makeing the map with a Megaserver system would be minimal in any case thank you for your feedback
Guild Leader
Yes of course the Custom arena with more space even just 15v15 would be awesome but i think it’s techincal limitation of the arena it self and of the underlying structure so it would be hard to implement without adding server and that’s a barrier
Guild Leader
@Liza Thank you for the feedabck, well Devs actually did the Gvg arena in OS in the past as yes somebody can say it was for that incident in past but they stated it wasn’t and it was alreayd a working in progress or more probably a concept already there in ANET, so i think the truth it’s the don’t much time to develop for now a system like it’s needed, so that’s why i’m trying to explain and propose a system that has little cost for ANET and with big advantage for all the players involved in Gvg scene and such.
Even just having more guilds able to gvg more often it’s already good, if servers had enough guilds, the problem would be there, but right now it’s not like this, it could be in the future, the short term solution it’s a way to improve and increase Gvg population and option by a lot.
Also most GvG guild do plenty of Zerg vs Zerg, and i’m sure it’s going be still a major part of Guild activity, but this short term solution give them option to do also something else that they love.
In the end, If developer can’t make this short term solution for whatever reason, it doesn’t matter, if you love something you need to try to safe it/improve it anyways, no matter what is the outcame, this plan has a chance to be done, let’s try to make at easy as possibile for ANET to implent it, showing support and giving feedback to them.
Guild Leader
Well Vavume in long term solution Should be like Os but as custom arena, the focus for now should trying to get an easy to implement, near 0 cost for Anet, the easier and cheaper it is the more it’s the possibility to get this actually implemented.
Guild Leader
Yep the two solution i proposed, the short term one i tryed to make as simple possible so it became just a Design choice instead of techinical problem to try to fix or implement, the system it’s there, works no problem for EOTM and while i’m not sure it’s probably the same system or with just minor changes for Pve maps, so doing it for the OS would techinical easy and only a choice about we want to do it or not, i think they can be only some concern for the JP section but i think the choice could be.
The long term solution that in the past it’s just the start i would like to do a more complete description, talking about future and thinking as well how to make it as easy as possibile to implement, the easier it is to do the better it’s the change of happening
Guild Leader
Yep that would be a positive effect as well.
The important point of this idea/system would be easy to implement and at very little cost for Anet because the same guild that could Raid in borderland could be doing Gvg would also promote less people in same map, so less lag and load on the server especcialy peak load that cause Lags and such, solution it’s simple enough to be viable
Guild Leader
reserved for more info
Guild Leader
Part 2
If you have any counter argument/constructive criticism/ideas feel free to post it below, i’ll try to answer the best i can.
time and cost of implementation, it should not take much to do this, it’s mostly testing that needs to be done, activating the mega server into the OS map EOTM style, so it might take a bit to handle resets and such but it’s mostly there.
Testing not sure what type of type of testing could be done but mostly to make sure that it doesn’t break the server.
If anybody wants more detail of this system, feel free to ask. this is an Idea, i think ive read something similar like this on this very forum and i tried to put the idea out a bit better, i dont need credit, just think about it and let us know ANET.
Solution Number 2(Long-Term Solution)
To be sustainable and make the GvG community flourish we need a Real GvG arena with an Instanced system, like the custom arena but bigger for the number probably up to 30v30 to allow spectators.
This type of arena should have PvE stats so it can’t be just the current custom arena but bigger, it also needs a better server than the current custom arena, especially compared to the start, when with my guild we we’re trying 10v10 inside the arena and all the people got heavy lag during the fights.
A system like this would introduce the possibility to fight guild’s of the same color or even the same server, especially in EU there are a specific servers that have guilds that are orientated around Raiding/GvG/roaming so that would increase the pool of possible guilds to fight.
Also being able to join the arena from a different server would create a new gamemode itself, because people dont have to transfer to be in the same server to fight with their friends like TPVP, make the team and play, no need to transfer to play with friends.
The Lack of need to transfer will make creating new guilds in the GvG scene easier, because the pool of players would be from all servers and not only the one where they are from.
Time and cost of development:
Time wise i think this would take atleast 8 to 18 months to get this system implemented and working.
For the Map the OS map with the JP so only Gvg Area would be enough one team starting from the tunnel and an other team starting from the other side.
I can expand on this second system but i would like to focus the short term solution first.
Thank you for your time to read this idea/suggestion.

Disclamer, my english is awful, like bad.
Hi i’m makign this post because i want to try and improve the situation and game mode that many of the roaming/raiding/gvg guilds do on a regulary basis since the start of the game.
I’m the leader of one of these guilds, mine is called DAWN we’re currently on Gandara and were born on Aurora Glade, Eu servers
One of the main problems that raiding guilds have is consistent challange every raid and every night, for a long time we got relatively lucky as a guild and found great servers and great guilds to fight against, to practice and get better.
Now many guilds don’t have access to consistent challange and that makes them progress slower and because of that the whole gvg process gets slowed down
I want to propose 2 solutions to these problems one for the short-term, so our player/guildbase does not shrink, and another long term solution to improve the situation even more.
Before starting i want to put a few things forwards, when i talk about GVG i mean waht some people in Gw2 understand as GvG, a fight in WvW with the same amount of people usually in the format of 15v15 or 20v20, with multiple rounds usually Bo7 or Bo9.
I’m not talking about Gw1 GvG, if you like that, great, in this thread i’m trying to discuss what is considered by some people what is GvG in Gw2
Solution number 1 SHORT TERM
Making the Obsidian Sanctum use the Mega-Server system Or EOTM Style of management/overflow/map.
In short be able to make multiple Obsidian sanctum’s and being in the same map of the other server with the same color, it opens up the possibility to do multiple GvG Options by a ratio of 9, in the best occasion and probably by an actual ratio of 3 to 5,
to explain, we have 27 server’s in the EU, right now GvG and fights can be done with only the 2 OTHER server’s in the matchup, with the solution that is proposed here you would be able to fight 18 different servers that don’t have the same color as your own server(Green/Red/Blue)
Why this system? Well this system it’s the easiest way for ANET to implent it’s efficient in time wise for development and can solve some of the problem that Raiding Guild face.
Making an Example: DAWN currently is on Gandara, this week we are facing Jade Sea and Augury rock, there are a few guilds in these servers but not many. When i watch all of the match ups of this week i see that i could fight a guild in Far shiverpeaks because they are not my color and because of that we could be in the OS and do a GVG
Counter argument for this system or why to even put any effort in improving the current situation:
1) GvG/Raiding community is pretty small, yes we’re not the biggest community pretty sure, any other game mode PvP, PvE WvWvW ppt is bigger but it’s a community born inside another game mode, and for now is still alive with just minor helps from the start of the game(Obsidian sanctum itself).
The possibility do do more GvG with more option and more level of Skill, opens the real change to improve in both quality and quantity of this game mode that even though its unofficial, it is present to this day without being helped much from the start of the game.
with that i just want to say, ANET you have you’re priority and it’s fine, this push to do GvG and this type of fights will be here regardless, with a bit of help you could gain players and more playtime with minor development time.
2) A System like this would make trolling and Griefing in the JP more often and to an higher degree, and the same counts for the arena itself.
I dont think the playerbase doing the JP constantly is that big and the same trolling griefing could be done now as it is anyway, but this system defenitly hs a chance to increase it.
For GvG trolling/griefing yes it could increase and probably would with the increase of players, but it can also be controlled by guild/server mates killing/warning repeat offenders interrupting and adding in the GvG’s when not wanted.
3) The System is clunky and guilds will have to join multiple times/join enemy’s to get in the same map and then taxi everyone in, yes it’s clunky but its easy to implement, a solution like this could take from 2 weeks to a max of 2-3 months and i think this is a good solution for being short term, i don’t see any other solution that requires this little time to implement.

I think they were easter holiday so they were able to push, like always, i except after the first of may Am to go back to their normal coverage.
Btw Gandara night coverage it’s mostly because there is people that they care and they organize or atleast are able to hold, it’s not massive number but usually it’s enough to hold and cap few things to get an advantage.
Ag before the league could have tryed for top3 for sure, but drama happen and past drama that wasn’t resolved like i said multiple times, came back and bite them, a small minority didn’t want guilds but no action were being take, people can take a certain amount of Rage at them until they said “No thanks we’re leaving”
I’m personally more happy now and for what i get told, even Ag community it’s more happy so less point of conflict, i think the situation improved on both side.
Btw this guild “TIME” that has massive number were they came from because i don’t remember them before the league nor ever saw them in other server.
Guild Leader
@Myste.3291 For the hacker, Fsp i don’t think they condone nor take advatange from it, if it happens, they can’t do much about it, they can’t seem him as well, Guild also left Ag for other reason, i made a meeting explain what happen, and why guild left.
I wouldn’t worry about it, the variance in PPT it’s minor, battle wise it shouldn’t be a big problem, Fix will come up soon, it’s annoying but yeah it’s Anet problem, we can’t do much more than this
Guild Leader
One screenshoot to beat them all!
Eb reached a top of 305 last time i saw. Gandara border i think hit 200 at some point
Guild Leader
Btw Gandara closed recruitment before the free transfer actually open, Tup and Dawn were going to move to gandara no matter if was free or paid, i would actually prefer to pay and get less queue, they problems has been than a massive amount of Guild transfer without asking and people from Gandara actually told them to not come and they came anyways, can’t do much about that, Gandara aside recruiting Dawn and Tup and i think Alph didn’t want much more than that, everything that came after came without much asking or just transfering and saying “we’re here” Yes queue are mental i except that and yes Gandara will go to gold league after the Tournament it’s finish.
Tournament wil be a very good occassion for gvg, if the farm stop at the entrace
that was pretty fun!
Guild Leader
I don’t know man, i think Gvg like they are now are less problematic, no worry about sending score, haveing other people confirming, people just want to gvg and that’s it, yes maybe there is a video after but it’s no stress, and we could avoid people just asking for scrim all the team and just gvg, i find the situation fine right now we’re getting the fights, we’re getting the gvg i wouldn’t ruined it again with a new website with ranking and stuff, people know who are the best guilds, ratinigs will not change that, many are really close to each other, the mid level and low level guild doesn’t make much sense anyways
