here are some suggestions I have about wvw instead of retyping/posting in this forum here is the link to it on the suggestion forum would love to get feed back about them
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/WvW-suggestions-6/first#post736574
I have had a search of the suggestion forums and couldn’t find anything like what I am going to suggest so will put it here
suggestion one: Remove the item breaking in WvW
suggestion two: Remove the nodes and mat farming gold farming from WvW
suggestion three: Change all blueprints/ purchasable WvW items to karma or new WvW currency (that you receive from claiming objectives/ killing other players)
suggestion four: When you go to WvW it should lvl you 80 like it does in sPvP no racial skills access to a WvW set of gear/weapons that is the same for everyone with different looks of gear for progression to show your dedication to WvW (all pvp should be about skill not who has the better gear)
The first three suggestions are of the belief that what you do in pvp which is what WvW is should not have an affect on the games economy.
Still keep the xp gains you receive you should be able to lvl up to 80 from WvW from lvl one if you chose to do so this will allow a player to lvl from one to 80 in WvW if they chose to do so.
These are quality of life changes the removeing of gold/repair costs and gains in WvW stops it being a way of just having unlimited gold you cant do one with out the other or it will unbalance the economy, and will allow dedicated WvW players to actually be willing to risk death with out a repair bill to maybe try and rezz someone in combat I know for a fact that if I see someone downed and there is a risk that I will die or get downed when I am in WvW then that person is not worth the risk of rezzing for the bottom line gold wise.
i had that issue as wwell what i did to fix it was delete the local.dat file in the guild wars 2 folder in my docs and it downloaded fine then
When you say ‘If you perform to what you are expected you stay lvl’ is wrong, ‘cause you actually lose ground here even when you outplay the 2 other servers in your bracket.
’If you out perform you go up’ … you can’t ‘out perform’ in order to go up, you would have to have a point income of at least 500 to ‘go up’ at the end of the week, and that’s impossible, it has nothing to do with YOUR servers performance, the 2 other servers would have to be asleep day and night.And as for the argument ‘you go up when you under perform’, 1-4 points was nothing in wow, have you actually ever played, ‘cause i’m doubting. You gained a rediculous low amount of points when you got matched up against a team much lower ranked than your own, it had no impact on the ranking at the end of the day. You were actually just hoping for the fight to be over asap and get matched up against a team with ranking equal to yours, in order to gain points. And btw, a team that had much lower ranking did not even lose ANY points.
Quick question what server are you on
lets take an random number of 200 the goal is to get to that figure every one starts at 0 if you fight some one with a equal points if you win you get 2 points if you lose you lose 2 point. if you fight a person with more points and you win you get 4 points and if you lose you lose a point if you fight a person with less points then you if you win you get a point but if you lose you lose 4 points
who deserves the 200 points more out of these two ppl.
Person A that after his first game only fought people with the lowest total points and won every game yes it took him 199 games to get to 200 points but he was never tested along the way.
Person B only fought people that were on more points them him self and he lost 5 matches along the way to 200 points.
Who would be more likely to win out of a person that has been battle tested and played against people that according to the ranking system were better then him or the person that got to 200 by beating up on players that were worst then him
That is the system you want that no matter how poor the ppl you are playing against if you win you should move up ranking points.
No the system that is in place atm is it looks at your expected score given your ranking compares it to the expected score of the people you are playing would be given there rating and that is what tells you if you move up down or stay the same ranking if compared to the expected results if you do better you go up if you do worse you move down if you do as expected you stay the same the issue is at this stage there is a large gap between the servers in each group apart from tier 1 and the bottom tier so normally the server that is on top has to totally destroy the other two servers because the rankings difference is so great once the rankings even out you will start seeing that if you win you will move up rankings points and if they are close matches every one will stay around the same rankings points
and just to prove what you said in your first post is false here is a link that proves that if you are first you don’t have to even win for your ranking to go up

look at the north american match ups and go to the 10 11 12 match up sea of sorrows lost that match up but still went up in ranking points why because we scored more then we were expected to score because it was an even match up at the start of the week

Dorps i played WoW for about 7 years, arena and rbgs, i don’t know what you are talking about. Even if you played against a team 200 points lower than your own, you didn’t lose points after winning the game. Sometimes you gained only 1-4 points, but you never lost any if you won. Only if loss or tie.
And that is why the system for ranking in guild wars is better because it takes into account if you performed to your expected lvl if you don’t perform to what the rankings are expecting you to do you lose points. If you preform to what you are expected you stay lvl and if you out perform you go up rankings points. Where as as you said with the ELO system that you are advicating if you under perform but still win you should go up rankings how is that fair on servers that do better then they were expected to do but still lose and end up going down rankings cause they came up against a much higher ranked team and did a better job then they were expected to and yet still lose points.
If this was any true and ‘fair’ as you call it, this system would be used commonly, which isn’t the case. In all popular pvp games you gain points when you win, here you lose regardless how many points you score (unless you control the entire map, and that’s absurd).
There is no motivation in putting effort in holding your server on top, simply because you can’t, and that’s where the problem is.
This type of system is used all the time it even gets used in wow with their rankings in an arena or a rated bg you can win but still lose rankings
the rankings you say that servers lose is just like the ratings you can lose if you win by a small margin if you play a weaker team. The points you win in this game which are the equivelent to the points you are talking about are the bonuses you get each week from earning points in WvW So in actual fact the system is used a lot or a variation of it and just like in other games the ranking points is completely different to the points you earn in game
yeah they are equally matched but SoR doesnt have a aussie crew so will get smashed by IOJ and SoS at night or at least that was the case 2 weeks agao
Was in sorrows embrace story mode today and when we got to the tunnel after the dredge meeting part the find the inquest HQ after the cut scenes Zojja stands there doing nothing it has blocked the finishing of the dungeon has any one else experienced this in SE
This has had me wondering since we got the NA coverage everyone has been saying that we will go the way of HoD but i dont see that happening as most NA servers have come to realise it is pretty hard to get an aussie or sea guild to move servers so if they want the coverage they will really have to be on IoJ or SoS or one of the other top 3 servers ones that have already the offpeak NA presence
@topquark
you are basicly asking for a server that has a high pop has big wvw presence but you dont want to queue for wvw im sorry but you are not going to have that happen any of the servers that are competative 24/7 have huge queues in peak times
Lose or win, it is a learning experience. The rotation is not over until Saturday, if we can’t win lets try and get enough points to secure our spot in T2.
Atm we make it because ET and HoD are getting stomped by BG it will be interesting when the t2 match is SoS IoJ and SoR that will be epic imho we will do a bit better against BG the ET and HoD have done but i just think we will still get stomped and BG will take IoJ spot after the next match up

the place I go for score updates
@dorps i realize that eu time zone is different than aussie but there has to be a closer than timezone i mean how much fun can it be for sos ? you may as well pve cause that is mostly what your doing. i do have some great video though you your guys getting beat in the open field by 5 of us against your 20 was a blast
The reason I posted what I did was because you said that SoS had a huge EU contingent and as I said the last time I checked Australia wasn’t in the EU. The point I was making is that when you say something actually fact check that what you are saying is right. SoS was chosen as one of the unofficial oceanic server from discussions on many Australian forums
Last time I checked I didn’t realise Australia was in the EU. Will have to let every one know that we have moved 10 hours backwards
done the story on an ele and tbh the only part of the story that i really had trouble with was the skritt blow up the destoryer one which they have now nerfed most of it was done as a solo or a duo and always either at the lvl it said or one under it the main problem in some of them was thou the poor wording of objectives
In all honesty the fact that a lot of complaints are stemming from the fact that great sword has lost support ability’s. Honestly my take on the great sword is that you are self reliant and don’t really provide anything to the party apart from self healing and dps or am I looking at it wrong
