Refusing to get legendaries/ascended

in WvW

If you’re like me and refusing to grind for a legendary weapon or ascended jewelry I’d like to hear about it.

I have one level 80 and I carefully plotted which type of armor I wanted, got my full exotic set and several exotic weapons (all the ones I use). I’m happy with those stats, and I see significant but not motivating stat increases on the ascended jewelry.

So I’m not doing any PvE except to fuel my WvW, which amounts to about a gold a day of farming various rares and selling them on the TC. The rest of my time is spent in WvW.

I once purchased gems with gold, and I don’t plan on doing that any more. I don’t plan on purchasing gems with real money either. I refuse to grind in a game that said there wouldn’t be grinding. I refuse to enter the treadmill in a game that said there would be no treadmill.

If/when I start having a disadvantage in WvW because someone else was grinding out a legendary or ascended gear in a PVE environment, then I will be searching for an’other’ game.

yup couldnt agree more the game was ment to be about the WvW and the WvW is great concept but with no PVP ranks such as DAOC or Warhammer its just extremely boring i prey to see a system same as daoc or war in the near future before the game goes kitten up and everyone quits for planetside 2 or some other better game

Part of the problem is you have three maps that are identical, as well as stupid pve crap thrown in (jump puzzles and pve events). These are the kinds of things that need some changes. That so many are worried about doing a jump puzzle for medals rather than fighting is another symptom of the problem.

I would suggest eliminating the PVE stuff entirely, and give us more maps/objectives to take. Also medals should only be given off of PVP kills or major objectives forcing those who want them to go to war, and not run around jumping from rock to rock.

See I too came over from DAOC… and much prefer a non linear open world pvp enviorment to the linear arena style (sPVP). So would definatly like to see more improvements in the WvW direction.

yup ur right there a ton of the issue is people wasteing time doing puzzles and pveing i do love the whole idea with the WvW but as i said gets extremely boring really fast hell having the ranking system alone even if no rewards tied to it would make it 1000x better just something to do once max lvl in WvW

ok me and my friends quit a few months back and have been patiently waiting for a WvWvW lvling / ranking system such as from DAOC currently the WvW maps are fine nice setup all that but there is just no drive to do WvW sure its fun at first but after 20-30 hours it was boring i remember playing DAOC pvp and WoW pvp for literally YEARS of 10-12 hour days and it was extremely fun the WvW is the best concept for the WvW pvp i have seen since daoc but sadly no lvling or ranking or tiered gear system linked to this at all is making it extremely dry and boring. I see your team is adding TONS of PVE stuff but in the past 3-4 months 0 on WvW so please a bring a nice ranking system of some sort to lvl while in WvW and add some sort of stat tracking such as total kills, deaths and caps of various types of places so we have something to do besides the same old back and forth kitten which gets extremely boring extremely fast. Most of my guildies and friends had all quit saying the same thing that WvWvW was ment to be end game but end game max lvl there just isnt much reward from WvvW to keep us coming back.

So please add a system of sorts and the sooner the better

ya they are pretty much the same issues i got and another BIG one is WvW seams extremely BLAND with no ranks to gain or any progress towards ur character it seam’s like WASTED time and instead of an enjoyable experience instead of turned to a boring back and forth grind with no possible GAIN anyways they NEED to have a pvp ranking system similar to Warhammer mmo or DAOC
