The pip rewards are the bigger issue than the rank requirement tbh. Could use a look at.

Yeah, and I wholeheartedly agree with that too, but we’re discussing here about Rank Requirement, which will not get newer people in a 5 year old game interested into those rewards at all.
Extra pips should be given to higher ranks, imo.

you need the reward to get the set anyway and the amount of time you need to spend is 4 hours x 7 days.

I play this game for 4 years and i don’t have 2k.

Then you didn’t spend that long in WvW or you didn’t spend your time in WvW very effectively. Capture objectives and kill players, easy to get WXP. My group runs 5 people for about 3 hours a night on raid nights and I usually get 5-10 ranks per run depending on who we’re fighting against.

So you are telling me that this wvw should be played only in big zergs trying to ppt all the time, forget the fights and do nothing besides that?

Well, i don’t think so. I play as a roamer and until last year i was on a big guilds.
There is no right or wrong. It is still an absurd require so much of a player for a game, it is not health at all and dissipate that idea only shows anet doesn’t care.

Anet isn’t requiring you to do anything, they’re rewarding people who have stuck with the game mode in the long term.

I guess this is my fault that i used my time playing this game as a roamer and it is less valuable than someone blobing.

And btw, what bothers me the most is not the rank requirement (still ridiculous for a upgrade of an ascended set) are the pips needed to get the rewards that is an absurd.

I think anet is forgetting about the player’s health, that they have to go out, that they have to work, study and all that, and make this a korean grind game won’t help anyone. Only will make who is already really addicted play more and who isn’t try to finish the pip or get the rank.

I am sure it is not what they want, so i think they have to look again about the amount of pips needed, the rank needed, the hours needed.

It is not a legendary item, it is an ascended after all, and it is almost the same skin with lights on it.

I play this game for 4 years and i don’t have 2k.

So you should only play this your whole week to be able to get the final reward, plus no gold, nothing.
Forget about pve, pvp and all the rest, seems too crazy for me, and i love wvw.
